Welcome To My Life: TrusT5

Ch 27

Ch 27-

"Why are they here.." Carter grits through his teeth.

"I don't know, just stay calm. Don't say anything to them, and it will all be fine."

"And if they fuck with me?"

"Don't, embarrass me, yourself, and the crew, by picking a fight. Be civilized."

"Fine, but if he tries something, he's gonna get it."

The waitress, Barbara is her name, is now carrying our plates of food to the table.

"Here y'all go. Enjoy." She says

"Thank you! We will." I reply, then take out my fork and knife.

We begin to eat when Jose decides to make comments.

"Man, you guys have a lot of food there."

"Ignore them." I whisper to my best friend

Another waitress brings their order over shortly after.

"Man, I think we actually got too much food." Roberto said, loud enough for us to hear

"Its okay guys. If we don't finish it, I'm sure we can feed it to Alex's hog over here." Jose jokes

They all laugh

"Carter." I say sternly, as his nostrils begin to flare.

He looks at me, and continues eating.

We finally finish, after a long breakfast of sitting next to the Raiders.

As we stand up to go pay, they also do the same.

I pay for our breakfast, $39.53, and we walk out the door.

"You really need to get a job." I say to Carter

"I hate working for people. You know that." he complains

"Well you need to find some way of making money."

He just looks away.

I know what he is thinking.

We grab our boards, and get ready to go when the Raiders come out.

"So, you guys think you can trash out place, and not get caught?" Griffin asks, mostly directed towards Carter

Carter just snickers, and looks at me

"I kept my cool in the restaurant, but now were out in the open. Lets go. You and me." Griffin says, angrier than before

"I'm not going to fight you. Ive been there, done that. I'm just over it." Carter says and turns around.

"Yea, and you got your head bashed in the concrete by doing it."

I grab Carters arm, to stop him from making a wrong move.

He looks at me and walks away from them, slowly stepping on his board, me following him

"You did great. I'm glad you kept your cool back there. He was just taunting you, he wanted you to get mad." I congratulate him

"Yea, I know. And I did. But I'm not fighting him unless I have to." he shrugs

"Who are you, and what the hell did you do with my best friend?" I joke

He just smiles, and we head to the park.
