The Cartel

Chapter 9

Kasper's POV
The next morning I woke up to an empty bed....again. I got up, did my hygiene and walked downstairs. Last night after me and Bre had sex, I want her to know that was our last time doing that but I couldn't. I've never wanted the same girl twice. Even after the second time with her I wanted her again. So I decided...well we made a compromise to be friends with benefits, no strings attached. I was content with that, maybe after a few more times I'd be done with her. Not wanting to sound harsh but I really didn't want anything to do with her. I never want to deal with a girl I had sex with. I don't know why I wanted her as badly as I did but I knew it had to stop before it goes too far. 'Too far as in you falling in love?'. I shivered at the thought of that happening and knew this had to be just sex...matter of fact benefits no friend. Just benefits. Yeah I like that better.
Breaunna's POV
As of right now I was being interrogated, by Paris, about the big ass hickey on my neck.
Paris: so you're telling me that's a mosquito bite? *glares*.
Bre: yes?
Paris: cut the bullshit Bre, that's a hickey and you know it.
Jay: my question is why are you so pressed about it...its just a hickey.
Paris: for one I'm not pressed about the hickey I'm pressed as to why she is lying about it and why she won't tell me who she got it from. *calms down*. Bre just tell me.....at least give me a hint as to who.
Just as she told me that Kasper walked through the door. Oh god.
Kasper: what are y'all yelling for?
Paris: she won't tell me who she got this hickey from. Tell me Bre.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw Kasper's signature smirk form on her face.
Kasper: yeah Breaunna....tell her.
I glared hard at her and right about now I wanted to wipe that smirk right off of her face. I looked at Paris whom had wide eyes now. Oh no.
Paris: please tell me it was not my cousin.
Kasper's smirk got bigger and I was not about to please her and piss off my best friend. Two can play this game.
Bre: no....hell no. *feigns disgusted*.
Paris: then who was it?
Bre: Jacob....Jay's brother.
Kasper's smirk was wiped clean off her face, that's what her ass gets.
Paris: oh...okay. Why didn't you just say that in the first place? *suspicious*.
Bre: I wanted it to be a surprise....you always say I need to open up and well....yeah I'm opening up.
Paris: well that good.....hey we should go on a double date. What do y'all say?
Bre: actually Paris...I want to take this with him slow.
Paris: oh well I understand, I'm glad you found someone boo...now you don't have to third wheel anymore. *laughs*.
Bre: yeah, me too.
If only what she said was true about me finding someone.
Two Weeks Later
Its been two weeks since I told Paris about me with Jacob. Jacob and I have been hanging out more but on a brother sister level. Actually, I really did find someone. Her name is Khalifa. Its a unique name to me. I've never met anyone with it. Anyways she's cool, outgoing, cute, and hilarious. I met her at the library two weeks ago. I was trying to reach for a book on the top shelf and couldn't reach it. She helped me with it and we sat down and talked after that. She's 21 and in college. Yeah ik she's a little old but sometimes old is better right? Right. As of right now I was with Jacob and his boyfriend. Khalifa was going to meet us here along with Jay and Paris. Yeah, I planned to tell Paris that I was see in a girl and not Jacob.
Jacob: Ferg, just chill okay. My brother knows I'm gay...he won't hate you.
Ferg: how you know that. He doesn't hate you cause you his brother.
Jacob: Ferg....*kisses him*. Its going to be okay baby. I promise.
Bre: please don't get all lovey dove right here.
Jacob: I wasn't saying that when you were letting Khalifa tongue you down.
I immediately started blushing at the incident.
Bre: shut up.
I turned my had to the left and saw Khalifa walking up. I stood up and hugged her. She hugged me back and I smiled. When I pulled away she held a rose up to me. I took and smelled it. It was nice of her to do. It made my day much better than it already was.
Khalifa: how you doing beautiful?
Bre: okay...what about you?
Khalifa: always good when I see you.
Bre: *blushes*. Okay.
Khalifa: may I get a kiss?
Bre: of course.
Her hand slipped under my chin and pulled me into to a gentle kiss.
Jacob: and you talking about us.
I flipped him off and pulled away. Just as I did Paris and Jay walked up. Well here goes nothing. Now I'm technically not coming out to my best friend because she knows I'd date a girl but she doesn't know I'd choose a guy over a girl.
Paris: hey Bre
Bre: hey.
Jacob: that's the only person you see.
Paris: hey Jacob.
Jay: hey y'all.
Everyone greeted him and it went quiet. Leave it to Paris to break that.
Paris: so who is y'all two?
Khalifa: well my name is Khalifa.
Paris: him...I never heard that name before. Its unique.
Khalifa: thank you. Paris: what about you.
Ferg: Ferguson but they call me Ferg.
Paris: okay cool. So all y'all friends or something?
Jacob: actually this is my boyfriend.
Paris looked confused and Jacob chuckled.
Paris: I thought you and Bre...
Bre: Paris Jacob is like a brother to me...and on top of that he's gay.
Paris: no shit sherlock.....so who are you really? *referring to Khalifa*.
Bre: she's my....girlfriend *blushing*.
Paris looked at me shocked before that mean look grew on her face.
Paris: how old are you? Where you from? And why you chose my best friend?
Yeah Paris is crazy when it comes down to me dating someone she never met before. Especially after what happened in my last relationship. Believe it or not she did that same thing with Jacob, but he knew what to say. I hope Khalifa does too.
Khalifa: I'm 21, I'm from Compton, and because she seemed different.
Paris: what you mean different because if you think she a how then you got all that fucked up. And 21....you better have a job or something.
Khalifa: I work part-time and I go to school.
Paris: college?
Khalifa: yes.
Paris: what are your intentions with her?
Khalifa: to love her, protect her and make her smile.
This made me smile and Paris smile too.
Paris: well I have nothing to say to that as long as she's happy I'm happy. And don't hurt her or I will kill you.
We all laughed and talked afterwards.
Kasper's POV
Its been weeks since I have seen Bre. I not only have the feeling of wanting her in a sexual way but I wanted her around me most times now. Honestly, after we had sex the second time and the incident in the kitchen we have spoken occasionally but not as often. Moreover, I was still pressed as to why she didn't say whom she got the hickey from and I didn't even know why. My uncle came back a week ago. He had a talk with me about going to college. I didn't want to break hi heart about me not going hut I had to. I didn't want to get his hopes up for nothing. I haven't been to the ware house in awhile because business was going great and ever since I killed Lamar its been drama free. Just like it was in my first year. I liked it but I couldn't help bit feel as if I was missing something. I had just got home and heard talking in the kitchen. I walked in and seen Jay, Paris, my uncle Kaleb, his wife, Bre and somebody I didn't know. Crazy thing is I had a feeling I know who the person was with.
Kaleb: hey there Kasper, were headed out to the Chinese buffet down the street want to go?
Kasper: nahh I'm cool, I'll just chill here.
Kaleb: you sure?
Kasper: positive.
Kaleb: okay would you like a plate back?
Not wanting to be rude I accepted the plate.
Kaleb: okay, we will back in a few.
Kasper: yeah.
They left and the last person to go was Bre. I grabbed her hand and she turned to me.
Kasper: what's good? Guess we don't talk no more.
Bre: we never really talked.
Kasper: right. So how about you stay behind with me.
Bre: I can't.
Kasper: why not?
Bre: it would be weird to just up and say I'm not going and two....I have a girlfriend now.
I was taken aback and I'm pretty sure it was written all over my face.
Bre: don't take this the wrong way, those times with you were great but I felt like if it continued I was going o get attached and I know you don't want that so I found someone else. We can still talk though....but as friends. Nothing else.
Kasper: nahh you good...I understand and you right I don't want that. No offense I don't do friends so....yeah. We good though.
The emotions that crossed her face made my chest sting and I didn't know why. I haven't been knowing why lately.
Bre: okay then.
She walked away and when I heard the door close I leaned against the counter. I don't think it was the problem of her leaving or any of that I believe it was the fact that I needed someone else to replace my sexual needs and not being able to find one. As if my night couldn't get any worse my phone vibrated. I opened to look at the text. It was from Minnie and it read:
'I'm pregnant'. I think my night just got worse.
