When Times Get Hard

Part 24- Slide

Aaliyah's POV

Whew chile, that girl is a treasure. And her tongue is a gift. Her aftercare is so good too, she never makes me nasty or gross after we're done. And don't say shii about me not being gay and blah blah. I know, I'm just as confused as the next bitch.

It was late by the time we both showered and got dressed for bed. She had food delivered and we laid down preparing for sleep. She takes her gun and places it on the dresser after closing the bedroom door.

She hops in bed with me, placing her head on my lap.

"I don't want to go to school tomorrow, we should skip"

"Why don't you wanna go?"

"Because I wanna spend the day laying with you damn"

"I'm sorry stink for one I don't skip and for two I have the first basketball meeting tomorrow. Talking about tryouts and stuff"

"Aw shii yo season is coming up, you ready?"

"Last year so yes"

We spent the rest of the night talking and laughing until we both fell asleep in each others arms.

The next day...

I'm now sitting in my coaches classroom, patiently waiting for our meeting to be over. She's literally just going over the same things we talk about every year.

We had been in the meeting for about 20mins when all of a sudden a girl walks into the classroom. She quietly takes a seat. I'm assuming she's new to the sport or whatever cause I've never seen her a day in my life.

After the meeting, I was talking to some of my teammates when coaches calls me over.

"Yes ma'am"

"I'd like for you to meet my niece, Treasure. I convinced her to transfer here for basketball, she wasn't gonna get where she wants to playing for raggedy ass SmithTown. But I wanted to introduce you both and hopefully you can help her out... I have a good feeling you two will be some of the biggest stars to come out of this school."

She then walks away leaving us both standing there awkwardly.

"So what position do you play?"

"Guard, preferably point but I can do shooting guard too"

"That's coo, I'm a shooting guard myself"

"Type shii, well I guess I'll see you on the court... when even is tryouts I missed that part"

" November 5th, here take my number you can text me if you have any questions or concerns"

She hands me her phone and I put my number in returning it back to her. We dap each other up and go our separate ways.

Jordan's POV

While Aaliyah was at school I decided to head down to the spot and make sure everything is how it should be, being around Liyah has made me kinda slack off this shii. Needa run shii back cause I'm worried mfs finna take my kindness as a weakness.

I walk in to see two of my young homeboys getting lap dances and heads from random ass hoes.

"YO WTF?! I TOLD YALL THIS AIN'T NO FUCK HOUSE GET THESE FUCKING BROADS OUTTA HERE AND AFTER THAT COME SEE ME IN ROOM"

I walk away pissed off. These niggas must've forgotten who I am and who's my pops. I never took my eye off the main goal, I just happened to get caught up Ina side mission. But having strangers up in my shii is the highest level of disrespect on my soul.
