Uncalled For Love

Chapter 4 Princeton'sP.O.V.

"Hoemagosh ! That was hilarious !" I laugh entering my house with Ray.

"I know, the look on Prod and Roc's face , when we beat them, were priceless. They looked like they were gonna shit themselves man !" Ray says as his laughs become louder.

"Hey, language." my mom points a spatula at us. Taco night ! I love my mom's tacos. "Sorry ma- hey can Ray sleep over ?" I ask point behind me towards Rayan. She looks at me and raises one eyebrow. My mother looks between he and I and the burners down low.

"Come here Jacob, Rayan-"

"Yes Mrs.Perez?" "Watch my food. And don't let it burn," she adds before pulling me.

I hear my bet friend quietly sing 'gotta let it burn' and I stifle a laugh. My mom stops and so do I; she turns around and frowns at me.

"What ?" I ask furrowing my eyebrows. "I thought you weren't talking to him; that you were seriously done with  him !" she whisper-yells.

I forgot I told my mom I hated Ray-Ray and wanted to never see him again outside of 'Mindless Behavior'. "About that. You see we talked it out, the other day. We came to an understanding and I realized that I was overreacting. I mean he ismy bestfriend ." I partially lie.

Did we come to an understanding ? Yes, in a weird way. As in, me crying until I fell asleep in his arms. Did I Overreact ? Fuck no!, but I'm nor telling that to my mom who has a hot pan of oil sitting on the stove and knives in a droor in the same room.

"Okay. I believe you baby," she smiles kissing my forehead and walking back into her kitchen. Three seconds later I decide to follow her before I'm engulfed by the burden in my life called my thoughts, and hear screaming.

"Idiota de meirda! You burnt my tacos. ¿Cómo demonos lograste hacerlo ! The burner is on low, estúpido !" my mom screams, half in Spanish and the other in English.

Ray drops the spatula and throws his hands up in surrender. I laugh quietly and grab him before my mom does. "Sorry ma, he'll wash the dishes !"

"The hell I will !" He shouts at me and I mentally punch him in the face. "Don't you fucking curse in my house ! I've told you that so many times Rayan. You burned my food, and now you cleaning the dishes !" She shouts fro the bottom of the stairs.

We enter my room and I close the door. I look at Ray-Ray, "Idiot." his mouth falls open and we both laugh.

****

After dinner, and Ray eats a burnt taco shell, Ray and I sit on my bed playing truth or dare.

"If you could take any ex of yours back, who would you and why ?" I look at Ray and shrug. "None. I wouldn't take any back." I shrug once more.

"C'mon, not even Babydoll ?" I, once more, shrug and shake my head back and forth, indicating a silent 'no'.

"I mean ex's are ex's for a reason yeah ?" He opens his mouth as if to say something then closes it again.

"Well, what if... if it was, me ?" as my eyes slowly rise and lock with his they grow wide and Ray's eyes shoot down to my blue sheet. "What ?" I breathe out in confusion.

"What if we dated, and then broke up. You wouldn't get back with me ?" We sit staring with our gazes on one another. I try to answer but words don't form.

"I-" that's all I manage to say before he shifts and looks back down. "Its fine." Why would he even NO WAY ! He couldn't possibly be gay, no, if anything bisexual. I don't understand. I know he loves me, i mean we're best friends, but the thought of him being in love with me plasters an unexpected smile on my face and I remove it quickly before I ask.

"But, why would that even matter ? Its not like we ever would date. I mean you aren't... you aren't bisexual ?" I say the last part as more of a question than a statement. "Ar-are, you ? Bi-sexual ?" He sighs and looks up at me.

"Yes, and if I'm being honest I- I'm in love with you. I have been for, quite sometime now, and after.... that day, I realized that I really don't want anyone touching you like that, ever." A heavy-hearted feeling comes to my chest and I then notice that, I too, am in love with Rayan Due,Quann Lopez.

"Well I-. Me too; I am too. All of it. Me too Ray." His head snaps up and he breaths a 'really' and as soon as I nod he tackles me in a hug.

We laugh and he looks down at me from his current position, on top of me. I smile and notice his eyes move to my lips then back to my eyes. My breathing gets shorter as his face gets closer. His eyes shift to mine as if to have heard my thoughts, and his lips gravitate to mine.

The feeling that comes with this kiss is amazing. No cliche shit that fucking kids say like fireworks, or sparks fly.

Nah. This shit is real....
