Too Close To A Thug

My Brother's Keeper

Its Saturday which meant no school. I woke up alone which meant Shawn left in the middle of the night to go trap. I'll call him later.

I got up and brushed my teeth, then I jumped in the shower and got out 20 minutes later. I put on a black bra and black lace panties. Then I put on a Rip Tupac Jersey Dress and my Tims. I combed my hair and put it in a high messy bun. I put on my gold chunky chain necklace and bracelet and my gold studs.

I sat back on my bed and grabbed my phone. I had 3 messages and 2 missed calls. One from Mickey, the other from Marshawn. I checked my messages.

Bestie❤❤- Goodmornin best friend. On my way to PA call me later.

BoogerHead- I'm on my way home.

BabyDaddy- Party Tonight?

I text Trey back.

Me- Yeah where at???

BabyDaddy- Compound. At like 8 til 3.

Me- Ight I'm there. Pick me up?

BabyDaddy- I gotchu.

"Joey!!!!!" I yelled from my room. He was probably still sleep but I don't care.

"What?" he said coming into my room.

"Where the hell you was last night?" I asked closing the door behind him trying not to be so loud so mom wouldn't hear me.

"I was with Donny and them." he said looking at his IPhone.

"Doing what?" I asked snatching the phone from him and putting it on my bed.

"Smoking. Then Nathalia and her girls came over." he said grabbing his phone.

"Whatever. Next time I'm telling mom you were out until 2 in the morning. What you doing tonight?"

"Compound with squad."

"Be careful. You know I don't like them boys you be with anyways."

"Yeah ight." he left my room and I went to the living room and watched TV.

'You should stay another night with me. A one night stand is all----'
