The Love That Grew

Ch. 27 Rehearsals

The next day.....

"Tell me everything" Raynell said through her third glass of wine it was only 3pm and she was well on her way to being tipsy. Jashae was slowly beginning to worry.

"I already told you drunkie but I'll retell the story once Lo gets here"

Ray's face dropped once Lourdes name was mentioned when the doorbell rang she almost sprinted up the stairs making Jashae raise an eyebrow.

"Hey big mama and aunties baby!" Lo said  hugging Jashae and rubbing her belly. "It looks so good in here Xavier did his lil 1, 2 or whatever. You home alone?" she asked admiring  the nursery's decor searching for a spot to place the new teddy bears she bought for the baby off.

"No, I'm here too hey Lo" Ray spoke up looking nervous while Lo looked irritated "Mhmm" she mumbled brushing past Raynell moments later they heard the jingle of her keys.

Besides Ray, Lourdes was like another sister to her she always gave great advice, was patient, and would cuss anyone who got too close out. If there was an issue between her two friends she'd be getting to the bottom of it today.

"Lo, you just got here could you stay?"

"I know Shay, but-

Lourdes began to protest but Jashaes chin began to tremble seeing her friend on the verge of tears she placed her keys back on the counter and held her arms out to hug the teary eyed girl. "Fine I'll stay stop crying before I cry"

Two bottles of wine, and a movie into their girls day Jashae could still feel the tension between Lo and Ray. Raynell kept tapping her fingers on her lap while Lo kept bouncing her leg only responding with one word answers to any questions asked. 

She paused the movie and turned to face her friends, her voice firm but gentle. "Okay, enough. What's going on with y'all? Ray, Lo, you're both acting weird as hell. Do I need to start crying again?"

Lourdes sighed heavily, glancing at Raynell before looking down at her glass of wine. "It's nothing, Shay. Just some... stuff we need to work out."

Raynell shifted uncomfortably on the couch, avoiding eye contact. "Yeah, it's nothing for you to worry about."

Jashae wasn't buying it. "Too late I'm already worried so get to talking. You two are like sisters to me, and I don't like this energy. Whatever it is, we can talk about it."

Lourdes hesitated, her eyes flickering toward Raynell, who looked more nervous than ever. Finally, Lourdes spoke up. "It's just... something personal, Shay. Something between me and Ray. We didn't want to bring it up and ruin the vibe."

Raynell finally looked up, her eyes filled with guilt. "Lo, I didn't mean to—"

"It's fine, Ray," Lourdes interrupted, her voice tight.

Folding her arms across her chest she eyed them suspiciously until Raynell began to spill the beans. "Me and Lo got into it last night. We were both drunk one thing led to another a-

"She ate my pussy but stopped before I could cum because she didn't wanna cheat on Peezy. I told her ass he could join too" Lourdes shrugged by this time Jashaes jaw was on the floor she wasn't the only one getting some action last night. Raynells face was beet red. 

"So you were creeping in from Lo's house this morning?"

"Nope" Lourdes spoke popping the P "she went to go get some dick"

"I didn't go get some dick I went for a drive to clear my head. Lo I like you and I don't do girls I don't know how I'm supposed to feel plus P-
