Host of Imperfections

Chapter 17

'I wanna be the one who you believe in your heart is sent from (sent from heaven). There's a piece of me who leaves when you gone because you're sent from (sent from heaven). I wanna be the one who you believe in...'

Keyshia Cole's voice harmonized through the ear buds on my iPod while I lay stretched out on a beach chair soaking up the sunrays.

My mindset was clear of all things that could possibly bring me down and ponder negatively so it was only right that when I felt my cell phone vibrating on my stomach and saw Kelly's name pop up, that I ignored the call without any type of hesitation. I hadn't spoken to her in almost two weeks; since the day she so called 'told me about myself' actually.

I didn't want to completely cut her off but I honestly had no idea why she'd decided to call me all of a sudden.

Whatever the case may be, I wasn't in the mood to hear what she had to say, especially if it had something to do with Lorenzo.

I hadn't even been in Cabo for more than 48 hours yet; nothing was going to put a damper on my mood. I'd call her back ....one day.

"Where the hell are the guys?" Tarja (http://i30.tinypic.com/1zny2dx.png) asked waking up in the chair next to me. She dozed off not too long ago. "I can't believe they haven't come back yet." She sat up and took off her Chanel shades; squinting for a better view of the random people on the beach.

Malik (http://i28.tinypic.com/10r49jp.png) and Jay had disappeared about an hour ago after we both refused to jump in the water and get our hair wet. We'd walked in a few inches, but they kept playing around and tried to dump us. I guess they got little attitudes and wondered off somewhere.

I shrugged zoning off with my music again. I was too relaxed to get up and even attempt to look for them. They were just like pets, I knew they'd come back whenever they got hungry or bored with whatever they were doing at the moment.

No more than 5 minutes after Tarja said that I frowned with my eyes closed noticing something or better yet someone was blocking my sun.

"Sup Baby?" I heard Malik's voice first and Jay laughing like they were up to something. I opened my eyes quickly realizing that they were both holding something behind their backs.

"The fcuk yall been?" She barked. "And what are yall hol-"

Before she could get the rest of her sentence out they moved their arms making the two huge water guns visible and attempted to spray us.

"Oh hell no! Malik I swear to god if you spray me with that I'm going to kill you!"

"You wouldn't kill shit!" He inched closer aiming the gun at her hair.

I jumped up while Jay approached me with a sly grin on his face. "Come on ....stop playin!"

I backed up almost tripping over my flip flop.

"Why you runnin?"

"I aint runnin, I'm just movin away from your crazy ass." I laughed. The next thing I know Malik had sprayed Tarja purposely getting her hair wet. I aint never heard someone scream that loud.

Jay and I looked on in shock while she jumped up and started punching him. Malik wasn't doing anything but laughing.

"I got something for yo ass." She smirked and grabbed his cell phone that had been sitting on the end of the chair.

"Baby wait."

"Nah nigga." She headed towards the shore with his cell in her hand. "You play too damn much!"
