Two Broken People

Chapter Two

12 Months Later

Alyssa

"Lucas?" I knocked on his door. After finally finding out his name, it still didn't stop him from shutting his door in my face every time.
"What?"
"Can we talk?"
"About?"
"Anything, come on."
"No. Bye now."
"Lu-" He opened the door glaring at me.
"What the fuck do you want Alyssa"
"Uhm I was wondering if-"
"No" he cut me off then proceeded to shutting the door. I quickly stuck my shoe in the door. He opened the door back up, then looked at me.
"Can I come in?"
"No. Anything else?"
"Yeah, What's that smoke?" he turned around and I walked inside.
"You can't cook"
"If you weren't so fucking annoying, it wouldn't have burned."
"Oop, I see you put extra extra salt in your pancakes" I giggled kicking off my shoes then watching him throw the food out.
"Do you ever eat out?"
"Why you asking?"
"Because I'm curious"
"Why?" he stood there looking at me.
"Look, I see we're both single and-"
"How do you know if I'm single or not?"
"Would you like to go out to eat with me?"
"No. Now you may leave." I furrowed my eyebrows at him.
"God, can you please make Lucas a little less stubborn." He chuckled.
"You're voice is fucking annoying, your annoying Jasmine!" I froze up, then looked at him.
"Who's Jasmine?" his face flushed pale, as if he's seen a ghost.
"What?"
"You brought her up, who is she?"
"Get out."
"What?"
"Get out!" I quickly got up grabbing my shoes and walking out of his apartment. I left the door open just to be petty.

Lucas

Ugh. I blew up on her, again. Should I apologize? I paced the floor.
"Ugh, Jasmine she looks exactly like you. Like you've reincarnated or some shit." I slipped my shoes on as my phone was ringing. I picked it up then answered it.
"Wassup bro. I see you finally answering the fucking phone." I chuckled a little.
"Man Will I just cleared my mind. I think I'm ready for another relationship."
"No you not, when the last time you got some ass?" I sat and thought about it.
"3 Years"
"Aw hell no" they both busted out laughing.
"Ion find shit funny"
"We do"
"Whatever man, what y'all call foe?"
"Oh we having a pool party, and we wanted to see what was up."
"Ima slide."
"You sure? You becoming gay or something?" I hung up. Dumbass gone ask me that retarded ass question. I stripped down then put on my swim trunks. I grabbed some changing clothes then put it into my Gucci bookbag. As soon as I was ready to go, I opened the door and there Alyssa was down the hallway. I had watched her, she looked so much like Jasmine. It was crazy, she was a spitting image. But she doesn't recall of a Jasmine, not even an identical twin.
"You just gonna stare?" I snapped out of thought as she yelled down the hallway at me. I quickly locked my door then jogged down there towards her.
"Aye, I kinda apologize for earlier. You wanna come to this pool party with me?" She looked me up and down then opened her door.
"Come in" She walked in before me. For some odd reason my eyes darted straight to her butt. Which was extremely petite and it looked soft. But she was skinny, and little. Maybe 5"1 the least, Jasmine was 5"5.
"You ready?" I looked at her and noticed she was changed.

(she was wearing the first one and no her panties weren't showing.)

"Uh yeah." I opened the door for her then locked the bottom lock. As we walked through the hallway, visions of Jasmine blurred through my mind.
"Lucas"
"Hm?"
"What?" Alyssa looked at me in confusion.
"You wanna drive?"
"Yeah, just show me the way."
"Okay"
"Lucas, kiss me."
"No"
"Please, I'd really like that"
Before I knew it, my body pulled her towards the wall. She looked at me with terrifying eyes as I kept a straight face.
"You are so beautiful" I whispered in her ear as her breathing hiked.
"Lucas"
"Lucas, kiss her"
Don't listen to your conscience Lucas, please don't. I lifted her chin up, so she was looking at me and smirked.
"You ready?" I opened the door to the lobby.

"Lucas?"
"Wassup?"
"Who's your lady friend?"
"Is that Jasmine?"
"No Dill, it ain't and her name is Alyssa."
"How you meet her?"
"Her husband was beating on her."
"Husband?!" both Will and Dillyn said in unison.
"What?"
"You brought a married woman with you Lucas!"
"She's a widow now"
"What do you mean by now?"
"That nigha rocked my shit, like literally." I busted out laughing.
"Nigha was Michael Ealy failed impersonator. He was buff as fuck too." everybody began laughing. Over in the distance I saw Alyssa conversating with some girl. They seemed like they already knew each other.
"I'll be back" I got up, sipping some water then walking over there to them.
"Oh hey Mani this is Lucas the friend I was telling you about."
Friend?
"Are you drunk? We not friends. Min'a leave us to talk, bye"
"It's Mani."
"I don't care girl, keep talking and I'ma knock the goofy outta you" I glared at her as Alyssa busts out laughing.
"Fuck you laughing for?"
"A lil too much sea salt in your water."
"Aye chill out, what you over here conversating about?"
"Nothing, she asked if me and you were dating. I told her I was kind of a widower. She said she thought you was cute."
"I'm not interested in her." She nodded then took gulp of her drink. But from up here I could smell all the alcohol in it.
"How many of those you had?"
"This is my first one."
"You sure?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Yo! I'm Dillyn."
"I'm Will." they both sat aside her.
"Our nigha Lucas was just telling us how annoying you are."
"Yeah, y'all should be best friends. Y'all both going through the same bullshit." I cut eyes at them.
"What do you mean same bullshit?"
"Lucas lost his girlfriend."
"Bad breakup?"
"Nah. Much worst she di-" I pushed both of them into the water then grabbed Alyssa's hand pulling her in the house.
"You smoke?" she shook her head, I pulled out two blunts and smoked both of them down to a roach. I reached towards Alyssa's drink and took a big gulp out of it. I was buzzing but I wasn't and my high just set it off, best combination ever.
