Dream
Walking across the stage was one of the best moments in my life. I was finally done with high school and I did it with my best friend and my family by my side.

My and Lucas had been chilling for the last 2 months and it was an understatement to say that he was feeling way better. He was coming out the house way more and I was happy to see that he was happy.

Pulling him out that depression wasn't easy at all and it was depressing to see him so depressed.

"...I swear I think that man is your man the way that you ditch me to be with him." Jayceon ranted making me stop applying the make up and look at him.

"Tell that tale again. You been hanging with Mia and have been straight ditching me."

He cheesed. "You right, that's my baby tho. You're not allowed to date tho so don't even think about it and tell him to keep his hands to himself before I shoot him."

"Who we shooting?" Dill said coming into my room eating my chip.

"Are you really going to eat my chips in my face? That's really rude. You could've asked." I snapped and he frowned at me.

"Boi I don't care if mother nature herself came down here and flicked your uterus making it bleed, you better stop talking to me like that before I get on your ass." he said causing Jayceon to fall into a laughing fit along with Kiyah and Kayla who came into the room.

"I don't find it that freaking funny. You can get out now, since you want to be a comedian. And please leave those two dollars that you did not pay for those chips with on my dresser." I snapped back getting fed up with him.

It's true that I was indeed on my period, but he didn't have air my business out like that. He also didn't have to talk about me like that. He knows how I get, and yet he wanted to be funny.

"Sis, you cramping?" Kiyah asked giving me a pouty face. "I can call Lucas and I'm pretty sure that he will come over and rub it for you."

"Lucas not doing shit." Dill stale faced her making everybody except for Jayceon to laugh again.

"I don't think that is funny. He can't touch her." he mugged and Kayla smacked her lips.

"That lady is grown. You should've seen them on the couch sleep that day after I came from my momma house."

"We did see it. You posted on Snapchat and Instagram." Dillyn mushed her head before leaving out the room.

"I think it's cute." Damia shrugged coming into the room.

"Where you get that ice cream from?" I asked eyeing the ice cream that she had in her hand.

"It was in the back of the freezer. I asked ya momma was it hers because you know she like to hide shit and she said it wasn't hers and it look new so I took it." she shrugged making me mad.

"IT'S MINE!" I yelled catching everybody off guard. I wouldn't have been mad if it wasn't for Dillyn taking my chips as well. They couldn't seem to keep their hands off stuff that didn't belong to them and it was starting to blow me.

"Here, get this damn ice cream before I have to knock your ass out because it is not that serious, sis. You doing all that over some ice cream." she said pushing the ice cream in my face causing me to smack it out her hand.

"Keep that nasty hand of yours out of my face." I said standing up moving her out my way before leaving out the room.

"Ma! You better tell your child to keep her hands to herself before I have to knock her out!" Damia yelled and Mom grabbed me before I hit the bottom of the stairs.

"What's wrong? You okay? You need the heating pad?" she asked giving me a concerned face.

"No ma'am, I need to get away from your stupid kids who don't know how to keep their hands off things that doesn't belong to them. I'm going over Lucas house." I said grabbing my keys only for her to snatch them back from me.

"You're going to stay in this house until you calm down. Lucas can wait." she said and I didn't bother to even argue with her because either way it went, she wouldn't let me leave.

"You better not go down there and mess with that girl. You act even meaner than her when you're on your period." I heard Jayceon say to Damia before I heard a door close.

"Ma'am, I'm leaving." Kayla said coming downstairs.

"Take angry ass with you." she said talking about me and Kayla laughed as I rolled my eyes.

"Come on, Dream." she said leaving out and I followed her.
---------------------
"See you don't understand, they always get away with doing this stupid stuff and she never says anything to them, but let me do something little to them, she gets to acting as if she's about to die." I ranted to Lucas as he just looked at me while sitting on the bed.

"You want me to buy you some chips and some ice cream? Would that make you feel better?" he asked causing me to stop my rant and pacing.

"No. It would make me feel better but you didn't take it, so I don't expect you to buy the stuff again." I said sitting down.

"If it'll make you sit the fuck down and give me a good hour of silence, and make you feel better, Imma head to the store and get the ice cream and the chips." he said getting up putting on a hoodie and some slides.

"Awn, thank you." I smiled getting happy like a little kid.

"Whatever. I'll be back. Don't answer the door for nobody." he said leaving out the room and a few seconds later the front door closed.

I walked around the house bored waiting for him to get back.

"Y'all should just get together and stop playing." Kayla said coming out the bathroom.

"What are you talking about? It's not like that at all. He's just good company." I tried reassuring her.

"Good company my ass. He wouldn't even go out and buy something that he took from me. If I didn't chase him around the house, I wouldn't even get the money." she said and I laughed because I knew it was true.

"Just talk his head off." I shrugged. "Talking a lot really pays off."

"Noted." she said walking into her room before somebody rung the doorbell. "Get the door for me."

"Lucas told me not the answer the door, so I can't."

"That man is not your daddy, well not yet. But o well, they'll be okay if they think that nobody is home." she shrugged closing her room door behind her.

If I would've opened the door, I could've stopped the bull crap before it started
