Micky

He barely got any sleep between the girl Kayon had over, howling like a damn wolf, and running to the bathroom because of Gma's chili. He didn't want breakfast, he just laid in bed. He smelled weed coming from somewhere but was confused from where, Lani's door was closed. He got up to look around the room and spotted a small hole by his bed, he kneeled down to peeped through it. It was Kayon smoking with some of his friends.

It was something about how the sun shined on his face, making his eyes more visible. The way he turned his head when he laughed, his smile was still wide and beautiful as ever. But that sparkle in his eyes was dim, he was pretending. He was hurting or angry.

"You discovered the secret hole." Malani snuck up on him.

"I smelled loud and was trying to see where it was coming from."

"He not even suppose to be smoking in here, but he does whatever he wants." She shoved some toilet paper in the hole. "There is going to be an outdoor movie showing tonight, you wanna go?"

"Yeah, better then sitting around all day, what movie are they playing?"

"Oh umm...'Never Meant To' based off that book written by Johnnisha Whitfield."

"Oh, I love that book! I saw the previews, they did good with casting."

"Hell yes, the entire cast fine." She smiled.

"I was able to talk to Kayon a little last night."

"How that went?" Malani opened her closet.

"He seems angry,"

"I don't even blame him for that, I just wish he'd talk to me, Gma or even you. He won't." She searched through her clothes.

"I need to go shower," he pulled himself from warmth of his comforter and stepped into his slides. He grabbed a towel and went to the bathroom across from Kayon's room. He was just letting the warm water run down his body, when there was a knock. "Someones in here!" He yelled but the the door opened and closed. He pulled the curtain back and Kayon was pulling down his pants, aiming in the toilet.

"I couldn't hold it."

Micky's eyes lower to his dick, it curved. Jesus, it curved!

Kayon shook it once he finished and turned Mickys way and pushed his pants down past his knees. "You wanna better view, my nigga? You ain't even trying to be discreet..."

Micky closed the shower curtain. "I'm sorry,"

"You just full out like niggas niggas now? I wasn't sure but you been acting strange." He finally pulled his pants back up, flushed the toilet and went to the sink to wash his hands.

"Yeah, I came out a couple years ago."

"Good for you, but I'm not into that. I don't care that you are, but be respectful of the fact that I'm not. All that staring at me, stop." With that he left the bathroom.

It wasn't on purpose, he would never intentionally make Kayon feel uncomfortable. He always had the biggest crush on him, and it wasn't even about the physical then, it was his personality. Now, it was about the physical because his personality sucked.
He was still stuck on the one time Kayon cuddled with him in the treehouse, when he was sad about his mom. He told Micky he was someone very special to him and he just kind of held on to that moment. Clearly, he didn't need to.

When he was done in the shower, he dried off and wrapped the towel around him. He was leaving out when Kayon was also coming out his room, with his friends. They all just started laughing. "This nigga got his nails painted." The shorter one comments.

"He always on that butterfly shit," the other one said.

"Let's go," is all Kayon said trying to get them to leave.

"If he gon be here I ain't coming over no more." Their voices grew faint as they got further down the hallway.

If he could of died then, that would of been nice. He felt smaller than the dirt on the floor.

Malani

"Wow, this is a surprising turn out, they are saying the movie doesn't do the book justice but it's close enough." She took the pillows from the car, Micky already had the covers. They decided to watch the movie on the hood of the car. They stopped by the store to get candy and something to drink. There were also food trucks parked all around. It wasn't long before Micky and I were leaning on each other crying our eyes out.

Ace loved Zhi so much and Zhi just took advantage but then Ace did Trouble exactly how Zhi did him. "Here this the last one," Micky handed her a tissue.

"We are a fucking mess out here." Malani looked around and other people were crying too. "Damn, they did this movie, I am a wreck."

"Ace may have low key been the villain," Micky said.

"He just really loved Zhi in my opinion. He tried not to but his heart was just Zhi's."

"I get that, I just hate that he hurt Trouble, but that threesome!" They both hit hands.

"Yes! That part of the movie had me leaking." Malani laughed.

"Kurt was such a good friend, I just wish he would have tried to stop Ace from cheating on Trouble." Micky helps her down from the car.

"Yeah, but either way he couldn't stop the inevitable, Ace was going to find his way back to Zhi. Trouble was always going to get hurt, it was just a matter of time."

"Right,"

Malani stared down at his hands when he gently place them on her thigh in the car. He was always her comfort, her very best friend. But that young boy had become a young man, and she couldn't deny it. Her eyes followed the tattoos that covered his arms, she watched as he put the car in drive, guys made it look effortless, they made something so simple attractive. The way he grips the steering wheel, looking over at her to smile. He was doing it in friendly manner, but her body received it as flirting. She had to get her mind off him, she picked up her phone to turn on the music.

"You okay over there Lani?"

Hell no. "Yeah, it's just quiet."

"That's my fault, usually I have more to say and I'm not even sure why I'm quiet."

"Maybe, you've outgrown me."

"Don't say that...that would never happen. If this world was ending right now, there is no other person I'd want to be next to." He took her hand in his. She melted.

"The same goes for me."

When they arrive back at the house they went straight to the room. Malani purposely took off her top and bra in front of him, just to see how he'd react. He turned his head. "You want me to step out for a minute?"

"It's just breast, you swing for the other team anyways." She joked but felt stupid, here she is trying to seduce her gay best friend.

"Doesn't mean I don't find women attractive..." he then laid down in his bed. "For the record, them the best pair of titties I've ever seen, now go to sleep."

She blushed. Then turned off the light.

Yes! I mentioned my book as the movie they went to see...you have to manifest.
