Cuffing Season

4:The House Party

"Hey did you find a house yet?" I ask over the phone. "No did you?" Naiya asks. "Well I guess but--" I say dragging out my words. "Boy there shouldn't be any 'buts' how much is it?" She asks getting hostile.
"350" I say. "350?!" She replies "Babe lets go get it" she shrieks.
I put on some dark blue true religion shorts, a White Nike track jacket and my white air forces. Naiya had on a black diamond sweatshirt, bleached jeans, hoop earings and black huaraches. She opens the door to my hummer and gets in.
"Are you ready to do this?" She said rubbing her stomach. "Princess you're not showing yet" I laugh. She playfully hits me on my head as we walk up the stairs.
A bubbly white man with a bald spot and scruffy hair examined us quite carefully before asking "Is there something I can help you guys with?" He smiles. "We're here for the house" I smile back. "Oh of course you must be Mr. Averson! I'm Brian Hartwell, and may I ask, who is this?" He gestures. "Oh I'm Mrs. Averson, well Ms. Graham but we're pretty serious" she exclaims squeezing my hand. "Aw how cute, I had a girlfriend when I was 18... she left me for-- nevermind that, let's check out the house, shall we?" He hops up the steps.
"So its not much but, you know... its something" he shrugs. We walked into an apartment which had a brown couch. The living room was connected to the dining room there was a little arch between the dining room and the kitchen. If you walk back to the front of the apartment there was a bedroom to your left and a bathroom to your right.
"And this is only 350 a month?" I ask getting all warm and excited. "Did you see me blink?" He laughs. "Wow, can we have it baby?" She screams. "I guess" I fill out some paperwork and hand him a wad of 350 dollars.
Excited I dial up DJ. "Yo guess who bought a house?" I ask. "You bought a house?! Nigga please you crack me up" he laughed. "Bro I'm serious" I say. "Text me the address" He smacks getting irritated.
"Brother this is your house?!" Monae screams running to the couch. "Take your shoes off dumb ass" I yell. "Damn" Monae says reluctant that she has to get back up. "So where the hell is all your furniture?" DJ nods looking around from inside the restroom. "I hope your pants are up" I groan. "I don't" coos Monae licking her lips.
"NO! Sex for teenagers isn't good" Naiya whines. "Okay?" Shrugs Monae. "Naiya, you're the most freaky one besides Evyn" laughs DJ. "Y'all are hella uptight, what's wrong?" Questions Monae putting her hand on her hip.
"I am--" Naiya sighs. "Don't" I blurt with a blank face. "I'm pregnant" she exhales. "Naiya" I shout. "Chris you stuck your panky wank in her--" DJ slurred. "Congratulations" Monae cheers. "Chris you should be happy, You've been saving up money since the end of eigth grade" Monae says. "I am happy, I'm excited actually but I don't want everyone in my business" I roll my eyes. "You need a party" says DJ sinking his fingers in my shoulder. "Ow what the hell DJ" I laugh.
DJ, Donny and I go to get some food while the girls and Michael stay at the house.
When we get back we find Kylah and Dani dialing up people. "No more than 25 people" I hiss. "Okay chill Naiya's baby daddy" Kylah laughs. "You better not abandon that baby or my cousin" Shayla glares getting close. "Best friend do I look like a dead beat?" I ask. "Mmm that hairstyle makes you look like one" she purses her lips. "I've had this hairstyle since 9th grade" I say getting defensive. "And my little cousin better be cute" Shayla says adding something else. "Best friend, you for real?" I smile. "Nah, congrats" she says.
DJ, Donny, Michael and Naiya spend the rest of the evening moving furniture in the apartment.
"Yo Kylah i told you 15 people" I yell over Rowdy Rebel's 'She all about that shmoney' "Stop being a stick in the ass" she said grinding on Donny. "I know you want my stick in your ass" Donny said to Kylah smirking.
"Chris!" Shouts Naiya as the song changes. The song ends up being 'Body
Party' by Ciara. Naiya walks over and hugs me. I smile down at her as she slowly drops to the ground and shakes her way back up. "You ready?" She whispers in my ear. She turns around and dips to the beat. Everyone coos and pulls out there phones for Snapchat. She gets tired and stands up laughing.
When 'Work' by Rihanna comes on my friends Evyn Jonas and Chico Savage make there way to the dance floor. "Go Chico!Go Evyn" I yell. Evyn and Chico start dancing as everyone around is whooping and hollering. When the song ended Evyn landed in the splits. "She didn't" gasped Monae. "She did" gasped Michael.
When I woke up the house was a complete mess. Cups and plates were scattered along the floor and Naiya was snoring underneath my arm. I quickly clean up and get ready for work.
