Baby, this might sound rude

I'm taken but I want you

And I don't wanna play by the book, no rules

They say you can't have cake and eat it too,

But ain't that what you s'posed to do?

"He has me all the way fucked up." Jordyn said as she sped down the road in her car.

Jayda sat quietly in the passenger seat and I was in the back, meanwhile my mom and sister, Nai'elah were at my house watching the kids, since they offered.

I looked down at my phone because the same unknown number kept texting me all day.

510-739-8124: If you answer me, I'll stop texting you

Me: What?

We were on our way to the small, two bedroom house that Kyron and Jordyn had here in Oakland.

"You really think he's cheating cause he hasn't answered your calls in a couple hours?" Jayda snickered and Jordyn glared at her for a second but focused back on the road.

"He has absolutely nothing to do and neither of the guys are with him, so he's messing around. You just know." Jordyn drove faster on the narrow road.

"But I've never caught him. A female just comes up to me talking out the neck about it." Jordyn continued.

510-739-8124: Can we talk in person?

Me: No. Who is this?

She made a sharp left turn and took a quick right, pulling into the neighborhood as I sipped my juice quietly.

"You're crazy," Jayda laughed.

"You needa be crazy. Cordell got..." Jordyn trailed off as she pulled into the driveway.

Jordyn hopped out the car immediately after parking behind two other cars, and we followed as she paced up the hill.

I trudged behind them, slurping the rest of my drink until we got to the door and Jordyn unlocked it slowly.

She twisted the knob and pushed the door open and let it go, and began walking up the stairs as the sound of bumping was apparent.

510-739-8124: Its a lot to say over the phone.

Me: Then I guess it's not that important.

"What if he was with a guy," Jayda giggled and Jordyn turned and pushed her.

Jayda almost fell down the stairs but she caught the handrail.

"You deserved it," I laughed as I followed Jor and Jayda did the same.

I crossed my arms as we stood outside the master bedroom door as moans sounded.

I heard giggling and more than one female voice and raised an eyebrow waiting for Jordyn to make a move.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, putting her hand in the middle of the cracked door.

She pushed it so hard it hit the wall and scared all three of them.
