4 Your Eyez Only

6. Fool

Kaelyn Campbell

I walked into school the next day feeling every eye on me. I knew why. I mean it was a rumor a long time ago that I was a stripper, but now they know. I mean I'm almost 18, what I do with my body is my business. I walked into first period and took my seat between Elijah and Jordan. Elijah was the first one to talk.

"Best friend you could have told me. I would have been the first one to come down there and get my private show." Elijah said. I smiled, I didn't expect them to judge me anyways.

"I never did private shows." I told him.

"You've done them for me though." He mumbled. I blushed, hoping Jordan didn't catch that.

He did. He looked so shocked. His eyes raised and his mouth was agape.

"You telling me this whole time Elijah hasn't just been obsessed with you, you have been giving him reasons to be?" Jordan said. I smiled.

"I show him a lil something every now and then." I admitted.

"She crazy over a nigga behind closed doors." Elijah said. Jordan laughed.

"That's like the ten thousandth time he has said that. This is my first time believing it."

I just laughed and started my work.

When I got home, Simiya was laying on the couch, watching a scary movie. I laid beside her. She cuddled under me. I didn't mind.

Simiya is the only girl friend I have. It's been that way since I got put in that foster home. Everyone started separating themselves from me slowly, and then all of a sudden I realized everyone had cut me off... I never knew why.

Simiya never switched up. I moved in with her because no one would let me get my own apartment when I had just turned 17. I had the money, and Simiya offered me her other room with the agreement that I would pay half of everything.

"Keshion is calling you." Simiya told me. I glanced at my phone on the table before picking it up.

"Hello?" I answered

"You home?" He asked.

"Yeah Wassup?"

Before I could even answer, he walked through the door. I wasn't surprised to see Daniel with him.

"What's going on here?" He asked. Simiya sighed, I looked down at her noticing her bad mood for the first time.

"Wassup with the sigh babe?" I asked.

"Kobe broke up with me." She mumbled.

"Any nigga would be dumb to loose you. Don't trip over the mistakes of a clown ass nigga." Keshion told her. She looked at him for a second then at me. I knew what she was thinking.

"Nope." I shook my head.

She laughed, and we both looked at Keshion. He looked confused.

"What did you need brother?" I asked finally.

"There's some trouble." He said.

He pulled out an envelope and slowly opened it. The front was blank. That made me anxious. He pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to me. I stared at it in surprise.

The notes said:
"He owed me 500,000. The debt is now yours."

I looked at my brother.

"I got three times that saved. As a matter of fact, I can make that in one night." I said. Keshion stared at me blankly.

"I ain't paying shit to a nigga that killed pops. I'm going for his head, and I got a plan, but I'll need you and Daniel on board." He said

"You know I'm down bro." Daniel said.

"I'm down." I nodded.

"You're going to get real acquainted with Danny here." Keshion said. Daniel glared at him.

"Call me that shit one more time." He said. Everyone laughed.

"Danielle doesn't like the nickname game." I smiled.

"Do you Kaebron?"

"Call me that shit again." I said.

"If I do?" He asked. I looked at Keshion trying to figure out if Daniel was flirting or needed to be out in check. Keshion just turned and looked at Daniel. He was still standing up by the door, which just so happened to open right then, and Elijah walked in.

"Kaelyn I hope you hungry cause a nigga..." Elijah stopped mid-sentence again.

"Wassup." Keshion greeted him, with a dap hug and then Elijah turned and dapped up Daniel.

"You always popping up at my house. Boy do you know what a phone call is?" I asked.

"I love you so much I gotta see you all of the time." Elijah said.

"Nigga you got pictures of me." I shrugged.

"I said I gotta see you not a picture of you." He said.

"Ok Elijah." I just rolled my eyes. Keshion observed us for a while.

"Imma order pizza. I'll be back." Keshion said. He walked out. Daniel finally had a seat.

There was dead silence after that.

"So you're just Kaelyn all together now. No more Diamond?" Daniel asked.

"No more Diamond." I nodded. Daniel shook his head.

"That's too bad. I really fucked with Diamond." He mumbled.

"Diamond thought you were annoying." I replied. He just laughed. Keshion took his spot back on the couch.

"So Elijah... You tryna fuck with my sister?"

Elijah froze.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"That's the question of the guilty." Keshion told me. I laughed.

"I've had a crush on your sister since I met her. She really is crazy. She curves me in front of people and be all on me like she love me when we're alone." Elijah said.

Keshion laughed.

"Kae you playa?" He asked.

"No nigga. I just didn't have time to be explaining certain things about my life." I shrugged.

"I understand." Elijah nodded.

"Plus, I made a promise to dad that I'd let him approve of my first boyfriend. I figured if he wasn't here to do it at least you would be." I shrugged.

"You waited on me?" Keshion asked. He dramatically covered his heart. I rolled my eyes.

"Yes fool."
