Xena
We got to the party and got out the car. "You good?"
I asked Kalii, her face didn't exactly scream holiday joy. "I'm fine. I just really want to talk to Jayson, we need to fix this." She responded. "I agree." I said as we rang the bell and waited till some yelled Kalii name so we turned around. "Hey ladies." Kyle said standing behind us. "Hey Kyle." I said to him. "Hi." Kalii said trying to keep it short. The door swung open and it was Jayson, his face didn't look too pleased to see Kyle with us. "Please come in." He gestured then closed the door behind us. "Jayson you seen Dexter?" I asked him. "No I haven't I think he's in the backyard probably helping them set up the cups." He responded his eyes was dead locked in Kalii. "Kyle why don't you help yourself to something to drink, in the back." Jayson said to him. "I will as soon as I talk to Kalii real quick. Kalii..?" Kyle asked her. She hesitated. It was so akward. "Just real quick." She said to him. "You dead serious?" Jayson asked angrily. "It's just for a second Jayson." She said to him. Then they walked off. "This is why we're fighting now." he said to me. "Calm down okay? She loves you, she just putting up the boundaries you told her to put up with him. Give her the space she needs." I told her, he inhaled then let it out. Dexter came to us and kissed me. "Hey babe, when you got here?" He asked me, he was smiling and happy. My anexity is through the roof. "A few mins ago.." I was saying till we was interrupted by one of his room mates. "Bro where's the bag of ice for the bottles?" The roommate asked Dexter. "Downstairs, I'll get them." Jayson offered. As soon we he turned he walked into a guy with a plate of food, food allover jayson clothes. "Is my body a target for people's drinks and food?" Jayson asked Dexter and he laughed. "Go head clean yourself up I got the food on the floor." Jayson said running upstairs. "When your done, we need to talk." I told Dexter, he nodded and went right to cleaning.
Kalii
Kyle and I were walking to the lounge to sit and talk. "Kyle.." I began to say till he interrupted. "Just let me say what I gotta say." He said to me, so I listened. "Look, I know what your going to say, you and Jayson have grown a bond and a relationship and I respect that and if I've ever over stepped I'm sorry, but I can't stop thinking about the time we spend talking. How easy it is, I feel we got something between us. If I'm wrong, just tell me now and I will walk out of here and leave you both alone, but if you feel it too. Let's just get out of here and see what this is between us. I'm willing to give this a try but it's up to you." He told me laying it out there. I don't even know what to say I'm speechless. I feel something between us but I can't stop thinking about Jayson, no matter what I do where I am he is the one thing on my mind. "Kyle, I'm sorry. I'm in love with Jayson, and I know he loves me too, and it wouldn't be fair to him or you if I don't figure out what me and him have first; and rightnow that's all I want to do. Is be with him." I responded, he sighed in disappointment but then gave me a friendly smile. "Okay. I respect your decision and I hope he knows how amazing of a female he has." He said to me and I smiled. "I hope he does too." I told him. I don't doubt my decision I just hope he doesn't make me regret it.
Dexter
The party was going great, I've been running around so much I barely seen my lady. She was in the kitchen talking to Kalii, so I sneak over and grabbed her waist to suprise her, I love when she greets me with a kiss, wrapping my arms around her. "You done being a host for tonight?" She asked me. "Well I hope not would mean the party over." I said then kissed her. "Well I need to talk to you for real." She said to me. She's been saying that since she got here. "Wassup why you sound so serious? You good?" I asked her. "I'm good, can we just go upstairs and talk." She said to me, "okay." I responded. Then my room mate ran to me almost knocking me over. "Nigga come get David he arguing with this girl and she's pissy drunk bro" he said to me he looked like he truly needed help. I looked at Xena. "Go.. but meet me in your room when your done." XENA said to me, I kissed her cheek and ran out, the girl was drunk attacking David, she looked crazy David looked crazy just trying to fight her off. I looked closer and it was Kayla, the girl that went to the movies with Kalii, Jayson and I. I broke up the fight between them and held her up so I could get her attention. "Kayla? Remember me Dexter? We went to the movies, drove you home early cause I was a bad date." I said to her. After a moment I believe she remembered me. "Donte?" She said to me. "No Dexter. Look where your friends you came with you can't be fighting niggas Kayla." I told her. I could barely hear her speak her words were slurred and didn't make sense. "Bro she gotta go! She hitting people she's done bro!" David yelled to me. FUCK. "You know where you live right?" I asked her. "YES OBVIOUSLY." She yelled. " okay we're gonna get in my car and I'll take you home. Please don't throw up in my car Kayla." I told her holding her body up as we walked to the car, I put her in the backseat and got ready to leave, I'm just hoping XENA doesn't kill me.
Jayson
I'm in my room tryna find a new shirt to put on, then I hear my door open. I look and see it's Leah leaning against my door. "Hey,what you doing in here?" I asked her, I could tell she didn't know I was here because she jumped when I spoke. "Sorry, I just needed to get away from Scott. We went on one date and it was terrible but he thinks we should be together with his crazy ass." She responded I laughed. "Nice to know you been good Leah." U told her. "You too. Let me get out of here while you put on a shirt." She said reminding myself that I truly still haven't put on a shirt. "Leah. Can I ask you something?" I asked her as she patiently listen. "Do you think I can be trusted , like with someone's heart. Do you think I'm ready for like a commitment?" I asked her. "You want the truth?" She asked me walking towards the bed to sit on it. "Yeah. I need to know I want to be better for Kalii." I said as I sat on the bed with her.
Dexter
I was in the car with Kayla driving her home, she's so drunk can't even sit up so she's laying down in the back seat. "You're so nice Dexter. How are you and your girlfriend?" She asked me words still slurred. "We're good. I hope." I told her. "Well she's really really lucky to have you in her life. Love like that is rare." She was saying, till my phone rang, luckily for me it's XENA. I knew I had no choice but to answer. "Please don't be mad at me." I told her. "Where are you?" She asked me on speaker. "Hiii girlfriend." Kayla said jolting up and scaring the shit out me. "Kayla please chill out." I said trying to calm her down while driving. "Dexter where are you? Who is that?" XENA asked me curiously. "It's Kayla. Look, she needed a ride home, I couldn't let her go home drunk like this by herself babe." I told her. Then Kayla started making sounds in the backseat like she was going to to throw up. " you didn't have to take her home someone else could have Dexter." XENA said, I was trying to listen but I'm scared Kayla is going to throw up in my back seat. "Kayla please tell me if your gonna throw up I'll pullover." I told her. "No I'm good." She said hunching over her legs. "Dexter are you listening?" XENA asked getting angry, I feel overwhelmed. This is not supposed to be my night right now. "Yes I'm listening right now. I just have to call you back, I'm sorry." I told her. "Do not hang up on me!" She told me. "Babe I can't drive and talk right now, come on." I responded. "Dexter we need to talk." She yelled to me. " I can't, I gotta go, I'll talk to you when I come back." I told her, I was about to hang up till she said it. " I'm pregnant." She yelled through the phone. I froze. Kayla threw up in my backseat. "Kayla what the fuck?!" I yelled. "Dexter did you hear me?" XENA asked. "Babe please give me a second", I said shocked and frustrated while tryna clean up the backseat, think about what she just said. "WATCH OUT!" Kayla screamed hearing a loud truck horn, alerting me. I looked to us in about to collide with a truck, "SHIT!" I yelled swerving the car, the wheels started gliding and swerving off the icy road, I'm trying to take control but I can't, WE'RE GOING TO CRASH!
