Locked OOH; The Lost Volume

20| Locked Out Of Heaven

It's been a while since me and Bruno have spoken. There's been some weird tension even after our meeting in the bathroom at the bowling al. But after that, we didn't even speak to each other.

I'm not that upset about it, I am seeing other guys, so all isn't bad. Speaking of which, I have a date in a few hours.

"Paige was wondering if you wanted to come with us over to Bruno's house to watch playoffs?" Gia smiled at me and I just shook my head.

"I'm sorry Gia, no. I have a date today and I need to start getting ready anyways." I stand up and hug her. Heading to my room.

Charles was taking me out to eat and then a walk to the park. Yeah. Kind of romantic. He actually isn't that bad looking. He's tall, adorable baby face and has the perfect smile. He's almost too much.

"Aye Rosa?" July bursts in my room and I don't even bother to cover up my naked body. She does this all the time. I roll my eyes. "Yeah...?"

"Why aren't you coming to watch the football game? I'm going."

"I just rather not go, I have a–"

"Your boobs got so huge" July interrupts. I sigh "thanks".

"Anyways, ok well if you change your mind well be at You're lover's house." July shuts the door before I could even reply to that teasing comment. I check the time and now I'm rushing not to be late. An hour and a half to get ready. Le sigh.

*-----------------------

"Yo! My baby cakes" Phil shouts. Queuing that the girls where here. "Hey bae!" Gia grinned so hard. I couldn't help but laugh.

"What's up July...Paige."

"Sup nigga" July replied going straight to the kitchen. Paige just gave a small wave and sat down across from Phil.

"Damn. Bruno you didn't put anything on the grill?"

"Oh nah, not today." I chuckled and shook my head. I tried to keep the thought of Rosa out my head but nothing was working. "Where's Rosa?" Dying to ask, I said it.

"She's on a date" Paige said.

"Masterbating" July said.

"She's home..." Gia said.

They all said things at the same time and my heart shattered, fluttered, then dropped.

"Uhm ok." I nodded suspiciously. Phil looked at me. I shrugged.

Covering up for homegirl, fair enough. I turn my attention back to the Tv but my thoughts drift off to Rosa, everytime. I'm pretty upset about it but then again, I need to get over certain things.

"Put the grilled fat foods down! HERES THE PIZZA!" Rosa walked through the front door with pizza boxes stacked half her height.

"Rosa!" Gia squealed and I think I did too a little, inside.

I got up to help her with the boxes and greeted her with a hug and a simple "Hey"

"Hi" she smiles.

"Rosaaaa! You came" Phil interrupted our 5min awkward stare. Rosa laughs S she heads for the kitchen. I place the boxes on coffee table and stumble to catch Rosa before she comes out the kitchen. "Rosa?"

She turns around "what's up?"

"Oh Uhm...you've started dating?"

"Not much, why?"

"No reason, look, I don't want to get in the way of you being happy"

"You're not, I came because I wanted to,"

"Oh, you wanted to see me?" I asked playfully.

She chuckles and playfully rolls her eyes. "Yeah sure." I smile at her, looking at her every perfect flaws. She's dressed in sweats and a tank. I want to kiss her so bad but I know my limits.

"Ok, Uhm. Well let's enjoy the game."

"Yeah. Who you rooting for?"

"The opposite team you're rooting for" she responds. We both laugh and sit next to each other on the sofa. I grab a slice of pizza and take a bite as she lays her head on my chest.

Like old times.

I ran my fingers through her hair and gave her a bite of my pizza.

Phil clears his throat.

"Are you guys back together!?" Gia shouted in excitement.

My heart sunk knowing that we weren't and having to admit it in front of my bestfriend and her friends.

"No we're not. Am I getting to close?" Rosa sat up and faced my direction.

"No.." I respond and fix myself upward on the sofa.

"You guys are fine. We're all friends here. No biggy." Paige said and July just shook her head.

This can't be even more awkward than it is.

After the game and a whole lot of screaming and yelling during the 4quarter of the game. I was exhausted and everyone was leaving. Rosa, not by surprise, was sleep.

"Hey. Rosa. Get up" I shook her lightly. She groaned and turned over to her side.

"Rosa" I tapped her this time but she was still sound asleep. I pick her up and carry her bridal style upstairs.

"Bruno" she groaned and wrapped her arms around my neck and laid her head to my chest. "Yeah...its me. You wanna go home?"

"Hold me"

My heart pounded fast, nervous to complete her request. "Are you sure?" I replied and laid on the bed.

She pulled me into bed and I position myself behind her. "Yes, I miss you" Rosa snuggled against me as I wrapped my arms around her.

"Why do you do this to me?" I whisper and sigh squeezing her tight.

"Wait for me Bruno.."

"What do you mean?" I sighed and my stomach had another whole inside of it. She didn't reply, she was back to sleep. She must've been talking in her sleep, that's why....
