Work In Progress

31: Squad Sh!t

Qua
"You just show me up like that." Keisha rolled her eyes.
"Girl I was dealing with shit. I'm sorry."
"Its good. I heard what happened."
"Girl."
"Look, I don't know who that bitch was but believe me, he aint cheat on you."
"And how you know Sherlock?"
"Cause girl, he came to my house last night crying like a little bitch. Even my momma was looking at him like he was crazy."
"He did not."
"He did. He started breaking shit and punching the walls. When y'all get back on good terms, tell him he paying for my shit."
"We will never be back on good terms."
"You aint gotta lie Craig."
"I aint lying. I ain't going back to him after this shit."
"Whatever. He ain't cheat."
"Girl you taking up for him. You better not be on some Keisha Cole shit and be fucking him."
"See, you still got feelings for him. Girl I do not want Nate. Danny puts it downnnn." She dragged.
"Y'all some nasty hoes."
"Whatever. That's what you need, some dick. Now go ask for it." She pushed me in the direction of Nate.
"Bitch stop." I pushed her back before walking into class. I really hated the fact that we had assigned seats in class cause I gotta sit by him. Who the hell has assigned seats in high school?

I walked into the lunchroom and sat down with the squad.
"Hey girl. Ain't see you in forever." Tay nudged me.
"I know. Im back though."
"You sure?"
"Yes." I smiled before busting open my bag of chips. I looked over the heads and tried to find him but he wasn't there.
"Bitch he's walking in." Tay said as she looked at me.
"What?"
"He right there bitch." She pointed at Nate and he dapped one of his homeboys.
"Look what the wind blew in." Le said as Khalil strolled over.
"Wassup fam?"
"Yeah. Can we help you?"
"Damn I can't talk to my friend?"
"Whatever." They all got up and I looked at them like 'y'all just gone leave me'.
"You can't text a nigga back?"
"I was busy."
"Sure. You ight?"
"Yeah. Im good. You?"
"I'm fine."
"Kay."
"Okay. Be safe." He patted my back before getting up and leaving. I finished the chips then went to chill outside at the table.

"What bullshit lines was he spitting?"
"Nun. Just checking on me."
"Sure. You know he sneaky. Watch his ass."
"I know." I scrolled through Instagram and like a couple of pics before the bell for next period rung.

I walked into my lil apartment and sat my bag down before getting a CapriSun out of the refrigerator. I sat in my bed and relaxed a minute before going to wash my clothes. I popped in my auxiliary cord, drove to Burger King and then to the laundry mat.
"Dude come on." I looked up at Khalil.
"Not my fault."
"Whatever. What you doing here?"
"With my sister."
"You have a sister?"
"Yeah. She just moved here from with her dad."
"Oh okay."
"What you got going after this?"
"Nothing. Go home and do this project for history ." I rolled my eyes at the thought.
"Ehh."
"I know. I know."
"Well uhh, how about Friday we go-"
"Come on K." The girl who I'm guessing was his sister, dragged him.
"I'll text you."
"Kay." I looked at his sister and noticed it was the girl from gym the other day.

Nate
I blew out the smoke and looked at her as she counted out the money.
"Thanks." She dryly stated, without eye contact.
"Yea." She put it in her purse then looked at me before smirking and walking out.

I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself before I did anything I would regret. I got up and went to serve some crack to the neighborhood junkie before wrapping things up and going home.
"Where's Qua?" My momma asked as soon as I walked in.
"Dang, a hello would have been nice."
"Answer the question." She looked up at me.
"We broke up ma."
"What you do?"
"Nothing." She hit me upside the head.
"Tell me what you did."
"Ma, I didn't do anything." I sort of yelled before she smacked me again.
"Watch your tone and tell me what you did."
"Mother, I did nothing." I walked up the stairs and she was hot on my ass.
"You did something. What happened?"
"We were in gym class and some random girl walked up to me. She was touching and feeling then when Qua walked over she started saying shit like call me if you need me like last night and some fucking irrelevant bullshit." I explained and she came up side my head, again.

"Watch your mouth."
"Ma, please stop hitting me." I sighed before I lost my cool.
"Did you tell Qua she was random."
"I aint have time. All know how yall get when y'all get mad. Y'all don't let a nigga explain so nah, I didn't."
"Well you should call her. And speaking of calling, start answering yo phone."
"I would if I knew where it was."
"Get smart again." She walked out of my room and started to get ready for a shower.

Unknown POV
I looked that the messages she sent 'Nate'. The plan I had was working perfectly fine and she aint even know it. I laughed as she sent a whole paragraph of curse words and insults to him, there was no way she was taking him back. But in the end everyone will be happy, especially me.

"Is it working?" Kelsey asked as she smirked.
"Of course it is working. You did your job good."
"Thank you baby." She came and straddled me before kissing my lips.
"Baby." She rocked her hips.
"Yes?"
"I'm horny." She whispered and I raised an eyebrow. She dropped to her knees and swallowed before arching her back and I entered her.
"Yes Marquise!" She screamed while I pulled her hair.

Hahah. How many of all thought it was Khalil? Ha. You thought.
