Arranged Marriage...Interesting

Chapter 1 - Marriage… Fuck That!

“GO SHAWTY IT’S YO BIRTHDAY, WE GON PARTY LIKE IT’S YO BIRTHDAY, WE GON SIP BACARDI LIKE IT’S YO BIRTHDAY AND YOU KNOW WE DON’T GIVE A FUCK IT’S NOT YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!”

I was getting ready for my night shift at the Cinema in New York, whilst listening to 50 Cent In Da Club, one of my many favourite rave songs. I turn eighteen yesterday and me, Keyshia and my friends Michelle and Trey went to a rave Trey’s friend was throwing, it was too cool, although my mother was not that happy that I came back so drunk I thought I was Queen Latifa in Just Wright.

I made my way downstairs making sure I grabbed my phone and keys to my Harley Davidson, and drove to my job where I met up with Michelle who worked there aswell.

“Hey Keysh.”

“Yo Chelle, s’up?”

“The party last night, I saw you getting all cosy with Trey, so do you have a thing going on?”

“Nah, Trey is as fine as hell but I don’t think he wants that sort of relationship with me.”

“So you want to be with him, but you’re scared that something is going to go wrong or you’re going to get played or he just doesn’t like you, right? Girl, you just too cute!”

“Whoa, only you could get all of that out of one short sentence, but yeah I really like Trey but it’s not going to happen, he can be so distant.” It was true I really did like Trey but I don’t think he likes me back. “Daamn, talk about true fucking love, okay this song is kind of perfect for your situation ready.” She cleared her throat. “YOU GOT IT YOU GOT IT BAD WHEN YOU ON THE PHONE HANG UP AND YOU CALL RIGHT BACK SAID YOU GOT IT YOU GOT IT BAD WHEN YOU MISS A DAY WITHOUT YOUR FRIEND YOU WHOLE LIFES OF TRACK!!!” she starting singing the chorus to You got it bad Usher and I joined in with her.

“YOU KNOW YOU GOT IT BAD WHEN YOU STUCK IN THE HOUSE YOU DON’T WANT TO HAVE FUN CAUSE ALL YOU THINK ABOUT, YOU GOT IT BAD WHEN YOU OUT WITH SOMEONE BUT YOU KEEP ON THINKING BOUT SOMEBODY ELSE!” we both started laughing until we heard someone sing

“WHEN YOU SAY THAT YOU LOVE EM’ AND YOU REALLY KNOW EVERYTHANG THAT USE TO MATTER DON’T MATTER NO MORE, LIKE MY MONEY OR MY CAR, YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL BACK, FLOWERS, CARDS AND CANDY!” We turned round to see Trey singing the verse of the song.

Me and Michelle laughed then she gave me a glance that said ‘ask him out for heaven’s sake’ how I knew that I don’t know but this time I was really going to do it I was going to ask out the sexy, smoking hot, cocky-but-works-for-him, Trey Hill.

“Um… hey, erm Trey?” Gosh I was already stuttering, someone kill me now. “Yeah Keysh, what’s up?” he asked, then he did the worse thing imaginable he flashed that white pearly smile that would make the strongest of girls fall to their knees in pleasure, keep it together Keisha just ask him ‘hey you want to go out sometime’ that’s all you have to say. “I was… j-just wondering-“

“Just wondering…?”

“Erm” I sighed “What would you like to order?” STUPID STUPID STUPID!!! I mentally slapped myself.  I knew I couldn’t do it he is just too perfect for words to describe; he makes greek gods look like geeky nerd if you compare them. “Oh… I guess I’ll have the banana smoothie, thanks Keish.”

I went into the back and made his smoothie. “So what did he say?” Michelle asked “I chickened out, bye.” I knew there was no escaping the wrath that would be Michelle.

“Here Trey” I handed him the smoothie, took the money and gave him his change I couldn’t help but notice how rough yet smooth him hands were, I would love to have his hands over every inch of me- NO! no dirty thoughts Keyshia.

I watched him walk away then Michelle came out. “YOU DIDN’T ASK HIM?!?”

“I just- he-“

“No it was your chance and you didn’t fucking ask?”

“Give me some slack look at him and look at me, I just couldn’t.” I sighed already tired of this damn fight. “Couldn’t what?” SHIT! Trey heard. “Oh, um nothing I thought you went in to watch the movie?”

“I was gonna but you gave me an extra five dollars so I was returning it.” I’m such an idiot. “Sorry and thanks.” I looked over at Michelle and she had a look that screamed she was going to do something stupid that I was going to pay for. “Hey Trey, I was just thinking it would be really awesome if you and Keysh went out you would be the ‘it’ couple?” I just stared at her in shock no she- “I guess we would look good together.” I looked over at Trey who actually seemed to be considering it, WHAT?!?

“What do you say Keysh want to go out tomorrow?” Did he just, OMFG. Remain cool, breath in and out. “O-okay, sure I’d love that.” He smiled at me and I wanted to jump his bone right there and freaking then.

“Great, I’ll pick you up at eight.” He smiled and winked at me once he walked away I dropped to the floor in happiness, then looked up at Michelle. “You’re welcome.” I stood up and gave her the biggest hug that we both fell on the floor laughing. “THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, I COULD KISS YOU!!!”

“Look lesbian love!” Some kid shouted.

Trey’s P.O.V

“YES! YES! YES! FINALLY!!!” I shouted once I was outside of the Cinema, I have been wanting to take Keyshia out since I met her I could kiss Michelle for what she did she finally gave me the excuse to ask her out. PRAISE THE FREAKING LORD!

Tomorrow I am gonna give Keysh the date of her life and I WILL kiss her tomorrow, after 3 years of being stuck in the friend zone I will finally get her and no one is going to take her away from me.
