I woke up with my unfinished homework all over the bed. I mean we only been in school for two weeks and the teachers already making me count days til graduation. Luckily I took a shower and gotten my clothes together last night after coming from Varsity practice.
I did my hygiene before putting on my clothes on. I jumped in my bleached torn pants. I slid on my white tanktop then threw on a blue an white plaid shirt over it. Then slid on my Tims.
I walked out to the bus fixing my belt. "Bye Ma. Bye Abby. Love yall." I said with a pop-tart shoved in my mouth.
"Look at the country munchkin!" Shay said in a country accent. I looked upside her head like she was crazy.
"Don't look at me like that! You do the one looking like you came from a ranch in Texas." She spated holding up her mirror. I looked in her mirror that she was holding and she was right I did look like a country munchkin I said to myself.
"Well darn, I sure do looks like a cute country munchkin." I said in a funny country accent. She giggled then punched me in the chest. That shit hurt but I didn't let it show.
"C'mon munchkin the bus is almost here." She smirked.
We walked to the bus with my arm around her shoulder. We talked all the way to school.
"Shay what's wrong?" I asked when I saw her face freeze with fear. All of sudden I felt a tug on my back. I turned around and it was Korey. He swinged at me but missed. This niggah didn't know I have quick reflexes. "What the fuck man?!" I yelled with my short temper.
"You needs to go and fuck on somewhere. Messing with my girl." He growled.
"Get over it; she's not yours no more and never will so get the hell away from her." I said with only Shay holding me back from popping a cap up this niggah's ass.
I looked at Shay while she was trying to calm me down. She knew of my temper. Then he punched me in my jaw. I ain't gonna lie it hurt, mostly because I didn't expect it.
Everything after that was a blurr. My temper got the best of me. I was swinging left and right until saw blood that wasn't mine. I just stood over his unconscious bloody body. It took Mr. Yakes and Principal Richards to get me up. I looked back knowing that he deserved it and then at the same time mad at myself for letting my temper control me.
I reached the office and the secretary Ms. Marvin came asking what happened. I didn't want to talk about. She went for some paper towels to get the blood off of me.
"Thanks Ms. Marvin." I said embarrassed of my actions. "No problem! But you know Mr. Richards is calling your mother now." She said raising her eyebrow at me. I shook my head saying yes before putting my face in my lap.
"DeMarcus Lee Smith, If we won't in public I would smack the hell out of you boy." No other than my Ma growled while pulling me down to her eyes by my shirt.
Me and Ma walked out of Mr. Richads' office after having a talk between us three. Because I was a good student and it was my first offense Mr. Richards said I just have I.S.S. for next week after the weekend is over. But I was scared more of what Ma was going do.
"Oh my gosh you're okay. I've been looking for you all day. I was so worried for you Marcus!" Shay came before I got in the car to hug me fully embraced. "Hey Mama Jenny. It wasn't Marcus' fault. Please he didn't do anything wrong. I mean yeah he lost his temper but he was trying to protect me." She said begging for Ma to understand.
"Thanks for telling me Sugahh. Marcus is that true?" She asked. With her tone she didn't won't no explanation just a "Yes" or a "No".
"Yes ma'am." I said scared as hell.
"Well it's good you stood up for Shay. That was very brave and manly of you. But your tail needs to control that temper of yours." She said eyeing the hell out of me.
"Thanks Ma for understanding. I'll work on my temper." I hugged her tight. "Can Shay come with us?" I put on my puppy face.
"If Monica and Eric find with it then she can?" She shrugged.
"Well I kinda already asked my parents." Shay said putting on her puppy face with me.
"Yall a mess! Get y'alls tails in the car." She smirked. We jumped in laughing. I went by to sign out Abby out her after school program. Shayla and her acted just like sisters playing and talking to each other.
We arrived at my house and Abby dragged Shay to her room. I assumed she was gonna show her the dolls she got.
I was stuck with mine and the girl's bookbags. I went to run on the treadmill and lift some weights. I took my plaid shirt off and my bleached torn pants off. I was left with my white tanktop and gym shorts that were under my pants while listening to my Beats.
After fourty-five minutes of working out I walked to Abby's room. She had pulled out all her toys. They were both seating indian style. I slid behind Shay and put her between my legs. She smiled, acknowledging I was here.
"Ewhh, you stink Marcus go take your tail to the shower!" She spated. Abby busted out laughing.
"You wanna check if I stink!?" I asked her. She looked at me confused. I then grab her into my arm. She was punching and kicking me. I laughed from her missing me before this girl bite me. "What the f-" I said before cutting myself off remembering Abby was in the room.
"Now I got to rinse my mouth out. Your nasty armpit sweat is in my mouth!" She wined.
I gave her a toothbrush and some toothpaste. I grabbed some clean clothes for when I get out the shower. I waited til she finished til I started taking my clothes off before taking a shower. I was only in my boxers when I saw she was looking.
"Damn, keep your eyes to yourself." I smirked.
"Shut up Marcus, you always cussing." She rolled her eyes and shut the door. I laughed and got in the shower.
I got out and in my clean clothes. Ma yelled saying dinner was ready. It was fried chicken, mac and cheese and collard greens laying on the table. She said banana pudding was in the fridge. I made mine and Shay's plate.
"Thanks Marcus." She said before kissing my temple. "No problem."
"You forgot about me and your sister DeMarcus." Ma raising her eyebrow at me making Shay laugh.
We finished dinner and dessert. Me and Shay washed the dishes, while Ma was putting Abby to bed after she fell asleep.
"Y'all two I'm gone to get shut eye so y'all behave." Ma said before yawning and shutting her bedroom door behind her.
"Yes Ma'am." Me and Shay said in unison.
"I'll make some popcorn. You go downstairs and put in 'Ride Along'." Shay instructed.
"Yes ma'am!" I said jokingly. I turned around then she smacked my butt. "You gay!" I said eyeing her while she laughed.
I layed on the couch waiting impatiently for Shay because I been wanting to watch this movie all week. She finally came down and sat the popcorn on the stand. Then she jumped on top of me, making me gasp for air.
"Get off me Fatty!" I said wrestling her. We wrestled til I was on top of her on the floor. I never realized how beautiful her hazel eyes were.
"Don't call me Fatty." She said pinching my cheek interrupting our little awkward moment.
I got up and layed on the couch. I grabbed the remote pressing play. Shay came and layed on top of me. At first it was awkward. But Kevin Hart got burned by that little boy. "I know what imma do; imma grow. What you gonna do? STRETCH!?" We busted out laughing. I put my arm around her hips then I heard her soft snores.
Am I actually falling for her? Could she be the one? I thought to myself before falling asleep.
Hope you all liked it.
