Kyriel's POV

"I'm going to call Jamal later and deal with his ass. His dumbass going to give me ecstasy." I said to Quadell. We were making sure I was able to go home.

"He's probably sneaky. He knew what he did. I told you I don't trust that nigga."

The doctor let me know it was okay for me to leave and I got my stuff. After I signed out we left.

"So, You miss me?" Quadell says wrapping his arm around me.

"I just saw you yesterday." I replied.

"But that don't mean nothing." He hugged me tight.

"You obviously missed me though." I laughed.

"Yeah yeah yeah." He took my bag when we got to his truck.

"Did you see Zaye while you were in there?" He asked.

"No. I don't like seeing him like that. I'll see him at another time." I replied.

"True. I went to see him anyways. We just don't know when he's going to get out of that coma."

"That's why I don't like going to see him." I sighed.
"I want to take you some where." He said, starting up the engine.

"Take me where?"

"That's for me to know and you to find out."

I rolled my eyes and looked out of the window. I'm glad I asked him to bring me something comfortable to wear.

After a while he pulled up to some park.

"Really?" I giggled.

"Really." He replied.

He parked and killed the engine. Some people were jogging by and I saw a couple walking their dogs.

"Zaye and I would always come here." He broke the silence.
I looked over at Quadell and he was staring ahead, biting his lip.

"This was our meeting spot if we wanted to talk about stuff and discuss business shit. Nobody knows about this spot. But he wouldn't mind you knowing. Only special people are allowed in our chill spot." He smiled at me.

"Oh i'm special? Since I'm obviously the only one that knows about this." I laughed.

"Of course. And I want to talk to you."

"What you wanna talk about?"

"When we were younger."

I looked and him and he looked at me with that smirk he always has when he talks to me sometimes.

"And what about it?" I giggled.

"Like i've always been lowkey feelin' you. Well not until we was old enough to realized we had crushes."

"You had a crush on me for the longest?"

"Hell yeah. But I thought it would be awkward as shit for me to say anything."

"Well I liked you too after a while. I thought it was weird too." I started playing with my nails.

"Well it doesn't have to be that way anymore."

I felt him lift my chin up to look at him.
"You always make a nigga go soft." He chuckled.

"Ain't nobody tell you to be soft. I'm not soft. You know i'll cut a nigga in 2.5 seconds!" We both laughed.

"True. That's one reason I like you. You a ride or die chick."

"You think so?"

"Hell yeah."
