FLASHBACK
"We need to talk......" Julian said, pacing around my dorm. I could smell the alcohol seeping through his pores and I was really starting to get nervous, he stopped pacing and looked at me. "Quinton you know I would never hurt you relax, I just wanna talk...... I did something fucked up." He said sitting next to me and I could tell he was close to tears.
"Julian..... maybe you should go home and sleep, I'll call Gavin or Steve to come get you." I said nervously, but Julian really started to become erratic.
"No... no..... Gavin can't find out what I did." Julian jumping up and started pacing. "If Gavin finds out not only will he try to kill me but I'll lose my best friend and brother......" Julian said.
"Julian....... what did you do?" I asked getting nervous, I didn't know Gavin that well but I knew him well enough to know there was one thing.... or rather one person he'd kill over and that was his little brother. Julian looked at me with tears streaming down his face before walking over to me. He looked into my eyes and gently touched my face.
"I'm sorry..... I shouldn't be here. I don't even know why I came.......... but there's something about you Quinton." Julian said leaning forward to kiss me, but I backed up.
"You're drunk and you need to go home...... I love Carlos and I'd never cheat on him." I said backing up into my desk, Julian smirked darkly before taking a step towards me.
"Carlos 'Papi' Gomez.......... if you knew what I knew you probably wouldn't feel that way especially since him and Ezra........ it doesn't matter. That nigga isn't who he says he is Quinton he......" Julian didn't finish because he tried to kiss me again and I panicked, I grabbed the first thing I felt and hit him over the head with it and tried to run out the room, but he recovered faster than I anticipated and grabbed me.
"Please let me go....." I said trying to keep calm but on the inside I was scared senseless. The way Julian looked at me was both tender and heartless. "Julian....... I'm sorry." I said kneeing him in the nuts and walking out the room....................................
PRESENT
I rolled over in my sleep and Carlos was up reading, with his glasses on and for a second I forgot about my dream but then it hit me. Carlos didn't seem like someone who would betray his best friend, but Julian's words still haunted me,
"Carlos can I ask you something." I asked and he looked up from his book and smirked.
"Give me a second bae......" He said turning back to his book for a few seconds, the took his glasses off and tossed the book on his dresser then smiled at me. "Hold on I'm going to try to read your mind...... yes during the summer you get dick on demand, no I don't think any of the Kappa's look better than me, yes I'm horny, no you......"
"Have you ever slept with Ezra?" I asked and his smile instantly turned into a scowl.
"Man what the fuck? Hell no I don't even like that nigga, the only reason I even talked to him was because him and Gavin were cool but even then I kept my distance. Why would you ask me something like that?" Carlos asked looking at me and I turned my head, I knew he was telling the truth because one thing about Carlos was if he fucked someone he'd let you know and wouldn't lie about it. After waiting a few minutes something clicked and he started laughing. "Julian...... of course, aight I see...... Que I need you to tell me exactly what happened." He said getting out of bed and started getting dressed.
"Where are you going?" I asked getting up as well.
"I'm going to see Julian real quick, so what else do I need to call this nigga out on...." He said tying up his shoes. I told him everything and he was slowly turning redder by the second. He pulled out his phone and sat on the bed. "Ayy Gavin you up....... aight well I'm about to come over there tell Julian to have his bitch ass outside." Carlos said hanging up.
"Carlos don't go over there..." I said but he kissed me and walked out the room.
"Stay here I'll be back in a few." He said walking off, I tried to hurry up and put some shoes on but by the time I got outside he was already pulling off. Shyt why did Gio and Jayden both have to be gone? I ran over to my car and called Jeremy knowing Gio was with him.
"Aight man..... we're in Detroit right now and it should take us about an hour to get back, call Jayden and have him go stop that nigga, if anything happens to Papi I'm going to be pissed." Gio said hanging up. I pulled off and called Jayden hoping him and Kyrese weren't too busy to help.
"I'm right down the street from them, I'll meet you over there." Jayden said and I quickly rushed over there hoping Carlos hadn't done anything crazy. When I pulled up I saw Carlos, Jayden and Kyrese standing in a sea of purple and gold with Gavin holding Carlos back.
"Gav just let me talk to him real quick." Carlos said trying to break free from Gavin's hold. I walked over to them and Julian looked pissed. "Quinton I told you to at the house."
"Carlos just go home, you really don't want these problems." Gavin said trying to keep the peace while his frat brothers were ready to attack at a moments notice. Carlos looked around and smirked.
"Gavin...... you know how MY family is now ask yourself do Y'ALL really want a problem with them." And for the first time since I met him Gavin looked scared.
"Aight just go back to the house I'll be there after I settle things here." Gavin said quietly. "Make sure he takes his ass straight home." Gavin said looking at me and Jayden. "Juju let's talk." Gavin said walking away, while I pulled Carlos to his car.
"Baby I was just coming to talk....." Carlos said smiling.
"I know Carlos now go home and I'll see you there." I said waiting until his car was pulling off before getting in my car and following him. I guess he was trying to be funny because he decided to make a bunch of pit stops first at Target because he was needed to get some more condoms knowing damn well he had like five 12 packs at home, then he wanted to stop at McDonald's because he was craving a Big Mac.
"You sure you don't want anything because I'm not sharing." Carlos said looking at me while we waited in line.
"No I'm fine can we please go back to the house now?" I asked and he started laughing.
"Baby I understand you're horny but a man can't live on sex alone, I gotta eat." He said smiling as the cashier started laughing. After getting his food he finally did what he was suppose to do in the first place and that was take his ass home. When we got there Gio and Jeremy were talking with Jayden and Kyrese.
"You good bro?" Gio asked walking over to him.
"Yeah you know me, I like to get to the bottom of things, if someone has a problem with me I like to know why....... but Julian didn't want know problems that's why he had to have backup." Carlos said grabbing a fist full of fries and walking away.
"Que...... did Julian ever say what he did and why he didn't want Gavin to know?" Gio asked and I shook my head. "I swear to god if something happens to any of my brothers I'm going to hurt Ezra and Julian......" Gavin walked in with Julian and Steve right behind him, I swear those three seemed to be connected at the hip.
"Wassup Julian, I heard you had a lot to say about me? I wanna know why my name is always in your mouth." Carlos said walking from the back of the house.
"Fuck you pussy, Ezra told me y'all fucked and I don't like the way you've been playing Quinton." Julian said brushing past Gavin and stepping towards Carlos.
"You and I both know that's not true, so why don't you just admit you're salty because I'm with Que and you're not. I mean I thought you were over it you lost...... move on." Carlos said smirking and I could tell Julian was getting pissed and I could see that they were about to come to blows but before anyone could react Steve came outta nowhere and stole on Jeremy, and Julian hit Carlos then all hell broke loose................................................
