Merry Christmas (ON HOLD)

Shopping

"Good morning." His voice was hoarse and it sounded very attractive. Woah Hazel, too early for this.

"How was your sleep?" He asked me.

"It was aight, your ass kept snoring waking me up and shit."

"Says the one who was drooling all over my white tee! Look!" He said pointing at his shirt. There was nothing there.

"Got eemm!" He said laughing. I got up and gave him the finger. I walked to the bathroom and started to wash my face and brush my teeth, when I felt his hand on my back.

"What do you want?" I said looking back at him.

"Nothing just hurry up I need to clean up too!" He said and walked out.

When I finished brushing my teeth I changed into my black and white Christmas cardigan with my white tank top. I slid on some black jeans and picked up my all white vans.

I made my way downstairs and saw my mom making pancakes. She just knows man.

"Okay mom whipping it up. It's smelling good." I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Thanks babes looks like your ready to go out."

"Well you promised me we'd go out did you not?"

"Matter a fact, I have to go run some errands baby I'm sorry. Go out with Chloe and start buying some gifts for Christmas. I'll give you some cash. Get your boyfriend something." She said pointing upstairs. She placed my plate of pancakes on the table in front of me.

"He's not my boyfriend!" I yelled at her. She can be so annoying.

"Who's not your boyfriend?" Chris said barging into the kitchen, swiping one of my pancakes and kissing my moms cheek all in a swift movement.

"None of your business!" I yelled at him. "Give me back my food you little bi-"

"Language! I'm gonna get going, your brothers gone with his friends and your dads at work. Don't destroy my house." She gave me a few twenty dollar bills and was out.

"Who's your boyfriend?" He said stuffing food in his mouth.

I ignored him and continued to eat my food.

I felt his arms lift me up from behind so my back was against his chest.

"Chris what the hell let me go!" I started to laugh. He wouldn't budge at all so I was stuck.

"I asked you a question." He said.

"My mom was joking around." I said trying not to give out any clues. He put me down and backed up from me.

"Fine don't tell me." He said and looked at his phone. "I have to go Haze Natalie needs me." He started to put on his Tims and coat.

"Fine." I rolled my eyes and started to text Chloe. He looked at me and shook his head.

"She isn't a bad person you know." He said and I rolled my eyes again.

"Bye Chris. I'll see you later." I said looking at Chloe's reply. She was gonna pick me up so we could go to the mall.

"Later Haze." He hugged me and huffed when I didn't hug back. With that he left.

I hate that girl. Don't you ever just hate someone for no reason at all, because for some reason deep down inside, you know that they are full of shit. Well that's what Natalie is I think she's just using him because she knows he will be successful in his future. That's how great of a singer and dancer he was.

There were also rumors our senior year of high school that she was making out with guys behind the school. Chris never believed it but I did.

                ••••••••••••••••••••

"Hazel? Hazel?" Chloe waved her hand in my face.

"Huh? What? Yeah sorry I spaced out." I was really thinking about Chris and what he was doing at the moment. Is that weird?

"Sure... What are you gonna get for Chris?" She said.

"I don't know probably a new pair of jays you know him." I laughed and looked around Forever 21. I saw this shirt I liked and picked it up. I gotta shop for myself too. I laughed at the thought. I already got my mom these earrings I knew she'd like. I got my dad a Warriors basketball jersey and I got my brother a new video game. I'd get Chloe's present later.

"Haze isn't that Marcus?" She pointed across the store. He was looking at some jeans.

"Yeah it is he really glo'd up. Damnn!" I said louder than I wanted to. He had a crush on me for the longest time. Now homeboy was looking fine as hell.

"I'll call him over. You need to start dating. These on and offs with different guys aren't working." Chloe said looking at me.

"It's not my fault they aren't the one for me."

"Hey Marus. Remember us." Chloe said. We walked up to him and he turned around. His eyes widened when he saw me.

"Hey Hazel. Wassup Chloe? How are you guys?" He asked. I gave us both quick hugs.

"We're good." We said at the same time.

"Cool cool. Long time no see Haze. How's Cali treating you?"

"It's alright schools good and the weather amazing."

"You look good though real good." He chuckled and scratched his head. He had black hair. It was a short curly Afro. He was more buff than the last time I've seen him. Looking fine as hell.
I don't know why I didn't date him before.

"Thank you boo but I think that you looking better than me." I said fixing my sweater. I look and see that Chloe disappeared. Typical Chloe.

"So when are you going back to California?" He asked looking me dead in the eye. It's not the first time this happened. They don't call me Hazel for nothing these eyes are a killer. Ha.

"The weekend after New Years so I have a while."

"So where's ya man at?" He started looking around.

"He's not here because I don't have one." I chuckled and played with the ends of my hair.

"So can I finally get your number?" He said and stuck out his phone to me.

"Yeah." I took his phone and put my number in and then texted myself so I could save his.

"Yes finally, I got Hazel Richmond's phone number!" He laughed and so did I. I felt bad I hadn't done it sooner."Well I got to go my friend is at the food court waiting for me. Talk to you later?" He said and stuck out his hand.

"Yep, sure thing."

When I went to shake his hand he kissed mine and walked away. As I turned to get Chloe my phone vibrated.

Marcus :
So I'll pick you up at 7 tomorrow for dinner.

Me:
Was that a statement?

Marcus:
It kinda was baby girl. Lol.

Me:
