Peep sat on the crowded couch staring blankly at the TV screen. He couldn't even begin to tell you what he was watching, nor could he tell you what the fuck was going on around him. It wasn't quite a party, more like a gathering of eleven too many people. There was twelve of them.

He leaned over, taking a rip of the oversized bong in front of him. He felt his head clearing, just a little.

He glanced at Tracy when a knock rang through the room, "Who else you invited, man?"

"No one."

"I've got it!" Bonnie called from her room.

Peeps eyes followed her as she came jogging past the couch. She was wearing the same black juicy tracksuit as she had the first night they met. It was one of those old ones with the low waist - low enough to show that sexy tramp stamp. God, he loved that shit.

Bonnie had been back for almost two months now. She barely gave peep the time of day. She was never rude, always said hi, made stupid small talk that he honestly could not care less about, but that was all. Never came to their parties, never joined them in the club, wouldnt even smoke with them - it was obvious she was avoiding him, though she wouldn't admit it.

Her friends were following behind her, coughing a little as they entered the hot boxed room.

Bonnie pulled the door open, grinning wide. The squeal nova let out was almost deafening - she hadn't seen bonnie once since the night her dad dropped her off. She only returned to LA yesterday. The blue haired girl flung herself at bo, almost knocking her flat on her back.

"Shit, girl, I've missed you!"

Bo smiled, stumbling back, "I've missed you too. How you been?"

She had a grim look on her face, "Sober."

"What, he ain't even let you smoke?"

"Nah, hoe. I been stone fucking cold."

"Shit," Her eyes were wide as she passed nova her blunt, "Get the down you, babe."

Nova grinned, "Oh, I fucking love you. You know that?"

"I know that." She beckoned her girls over, "This is Crystal," she pointed, "And Cami. Y'all will get on for sure."

The girls had been looking forward to meeting the infamous Nova, they'd heard all about her.

"Hey!"

Peep zoned out while the girls talked about whatever it was girls talked about. He didn't take his eyes off of boo, not even for a second. He couldn't if he tried.

"Hey Tracy."

Tracy smirked, leaning back into the couch, "Hey Nova. I ain't know you was coming by."

"Shit, I didn't til ten minutes ago." She laughed a little. Her eyes scanned the crowded room, she looked past peep like he wasn't even there. She turned her attention back to Bo, "You found a job yet?"

She sighed, "Nah. Had like five fucking interviews but I ain't had word back."

"Yay!" She clapped.

"Hoe, is you sure you're sober? I said no. I can't even run my damn car no mo!"

"Don't worry 'bout that shit, b. I've got sumt lined up for us."

That sparked peeps attention.

"Fuck you mean?"

"I've signed us both up for this open audition tomorrow. I'll pick you up."

"Open audition? The fuck you talking 'bout?"
