Rapid Reactions (A Mindless Behavior Story)

Turn Up!

Previously: (YN) finds it difficult to say goodbye to all of her friends; she has a strong feeling that it will be the last time seeing them but her last few moments with everyone made her realise that no matter what that day would be the day of reflecting on their memories. Aimee ignores the text for the sake of her friends and decides she will sort it out on her own, meanwhile, Princeton is trying his best to reach out to her but she doesn’t want to get too attached because she doesn’t want to lose him. As Tyra returns during (YN) loudly outbursts that they wouldn’t have sex with the boys they just met, this annoyed Tyra so she reacted by kissing Ray in front of everyone which shocked (YN). During the journey home (YN) starts to realise that Tyra doesn’t seem 100% genuine with her relationship with Ray.

*YOUR POV*

When my friends finally left I wiped my tears and let Roc put his arm around me, Keisha joked about how dramatic I was being but she was the only one who didn’t understand that this could be the last time I would see any of them, I didn’t want to leave them but I couldn’t pass up on that kind of an opportunity. We got on the bus for about 15 minutes, after dropping Diggy to his apartment, while Keisha explained that we were going to be spending the weekend in a hotel then on the Monday night we would fly to Atlanta to start doing the business.  She explained that she booked 2 rooms because of the budgeting for the excursion but if we wanted to book our own rooms we could feel free to do so, I didn’t really care at the time but I knew that I wouldn’t want to share a room with 2 of the boys. I knew I wouldn’t have the money to get myself a room in the fancy hotel we would probably stay in so I accepted the offers and thanked again.

Once we arrived there the bell boys’ took my stuff from the bus and placed them in the room. I hadn’t seen anything more luxurious in my life; the room alone had a mini living room, 2 double sized bedrooms and a bathroom which could fit my room in. The bathroom was ivory with a huge bathtub and shower, it also had a huge mirror which was surrounded my hygiene equipment. The bedroom was also ivory with two huge abstract portraits, and was laced with champagne coloured vines, the bed was king size with mint-green coloured silk bed sheets plus is was covered in pillows. The rooms vanity table was fit for a queen and it had a window seat to top it all off. Everything was perfect, spotless; I was in awe when I walked into each room section, this was magnificence only fame could pay for.

Prod ended up booking himself his own room for privacy, we all knew it was because he wanted to mourn for Eliza properly so we didn’t say anything we he announced it after Keisha left, and  Princeton and Ray decided  they would use one of the rooms so that Roc and I could have a room to ourselves. I didn’t bother to unpack all of my clothes and I just took out enough for the 3 days and everyone else did the same, we were all tired but Roc was being the most supportive to everyone, it seemed as though he wasn’t as effected with everything. I guessed that it was because he was from a place like where I was from, he was from South Central, and even if you took someone out of a hood the hood is still with you. I guess that was where the attraction was between us. I sat on the bed in the smaller room, which was still double the size of my room, I wasn’t physically tired but I was mentally exhausted. Before I could do anything Roc walked into the room, I hadn’t said anything to him since we left, and I rolled my eyes and turn my back on him.

Roc: woah, what did I do?

Me: I didn’t say you did anything

Roc: oh we’re back to this now?

Me: back to what?

He smirked as I glared and challenging him; he walked towards me and soon after my back was turned again. I balled myself up on the bed and ignored his existence, I didn’t want to be rude to him but I really wasn’t in the mood to be with anyone, the reason I’d chose to stay in a separate bedroom was because I couldn’t afford to get myself a room for myself.  He touched my shoulder and gently made me face him, then he cupped my face and looked me in the eyes, he didn’t say anything but he gave me a look the explained it all.
