When we arrived to the party it was lit asf. Everybody was drinking and having a good time from the looks of it. The party took place at a guy named Deonte house. The house was really big like a mansion, but smaller. When we made it to the entrance Alexis was ready to get a drink as soon as she stepped in the house. "Dang, girl the drinks aren't going anywhere," I said as she ran to the kitchen. Luis had already wandered off with his friends to the backyard so it was just me by myself. I found my way to their sofa and sat down, I checked my notifications and had 30 missed calls and 50 text messages from Chris. All the messages were saying how sorry he was and that he loves me and only me. Yea right, I thought to myself. As I was locking my phone I felt somebody sat next to me. It was Enzo "hello gorgeous," he said as he slid his arm around my neck. "What do you want Lorenzo," I said while removing myself from under him. "Well a ️hey would be nice Jas, I see you're the stuck up and snotty type," he said while getting up. "Want a drink? They have beer, vodka, and my favorite henny." "Umm, I'll have a shot of vodka please," I said sounding polite. "Coming right up. Why are you alone on the couch? You almost looked like you weren't having any fun," he said smirking. "Ha ha ha, very funny. And I'm alone because your siblings left me," I said following him into the kitchen. "Yo people's okay with you being here?" I asked while throwing the shot glass back into my mouth. "First off shorty, it's just my mom, me, and my two siblings. My mom really don't be at the crib like that, after my pops died she haven't been the same, she started drinking and doing drugs but she does the best she can for us even though she has a lot of problems of her own," he said while grabbing a red cup for himself. "Enough about me though, what's up with you, where you from?" "Well actually I just moved here, but you knew that. I'm the only child, my dad took off when I was 5 years old for this woman that looked like a man. Ever since its just been my mom and I. "You got a man?" He asked while licking his lower lip. "Nah, my ex and I just broke up so I'm team single for the moment," I answered looking down nervously. "I can change that for you ma," he whispered in my ear and it sent chills down my spine. I tried to play it off "Nah, I'm straight, all niggas is dogs and I'm not looking for any kind of relations anytime soon." "Its something about girls that play hard to get, they're just irresistibly sexy to me." He said while taking a drink from his cup. "Come with me," he said, grabbing my hand and pulling me to the back yard. "Where are you taking me?" I asked wanting to know what he had in mind. "Just follow me." "What about Alexis and Luis?" I asked full of concern. "They would be so drunk by the end of tonight that they would forget that you came with them and I know you're not going to get drunk so you may as well come with me," he said leading me to the side walk. We walked and made small talk about random things such as what we did for fun and what's our favorite color and why it was so. He looked daddyish asf right now to be honest. He changed from the clothes he had on earlier, now he wore a white polo shirt, white biker jeans, with some all white G Fazos to top it off. After a couple minutes of walking we reached this park that only had two swings and a slide. "Damn, this park dry as hell," I said laughing. "I been coming here since I was a kid so cool it," he said while getting on a swing."Why in the hell you came to a park with two swings and a slide?" I asked taking the available swing next to him. "My pops used to bring me and Luis here when we were younger, he'd always buy us ice cream because the days he took us were really hot out. We would have swinging contest just for fun to keep cool and to see who could go higher. I'd always lose to Luis because his legs were long as shit. Now I just come here to clear my head, and think about what it would be like if my pops was still here. Maybe our mom wouldn't be on drugs and an alcoholic, maybe Alexis wouldn't be searching in all the wrong places for love, maybe Luis would act like a man and grow up, and maybe I wouldn't be in these streets chasing dollars. Those are just maybes, we'd never know how it would because he isn't here." "I am so sorry, I didn't know Enzo," I said apologizing for my behavior. "You straight, don't tell nobody I still come here. You're the only person that knows so keep my secret safe will you?" "Of course I will, but it's getting late so I think we should get going," I said grabbing my purse. "Ight coo, let me call my boy Tyree to take us to the complex," he said pulling out his phone. Once his friend arrived we got in the backseat. We sat in silence as he drove us home. When we made it to the complex we thanked Tyree and he pulled off. "Here put your number in my phone so we can keep in touch," he said handing me his phone. After we exchanged numbers he walked me to my door even though his was right next door. "I'll see you again tomorrow?" He asked stroking my hair. "Most def," I said as I was about to unlock the door until he pulled me into a hug and held me for a while. "Thank you for tonight," he said placing a kiss in the middle of my forehead. Once I got in the house I went to my room. It was 11pm so I was trying to keep it down so I wouldn't wake my mom. I changed to my night clothes and layed down. I was falling asleep until my mom barged in. "WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU?" She yelled turning on my light. I rubbed my eyes and told her I was with the neighbors Alexis, Luis, and Lorenzo. "Yeah okay, you not taking yo ass outside tomorrow since you want to be out late as hell with the neighbors." Once my mom left after hearing her preach for about 10 minutes I finally could fall asleep.
The Next Morning
I woke up still a little buzzed from last night, even though I took one shot that did a lot to me since I never drink. I really didn't care if my mom was going to make me stay in the house because that means I get to catch up on Pretty Little Liars. I opened my eyes to see the sun shining through the windows, only to throw the covers back over me. My mom came in and said "Get up!! Since you want to be out all night you got to clean my house from top to bottom, this isn't going to be a relax day for you . So when you wake up fully you can start in the kitchen by washing them dishes in the sink." She left out of my room and I got up all the way. I went to brush my teeth, I could still taste the vodka in my mouth a little. After finishing in the bathroom I looked at the living room and there was nothing that needed to be done so basically my mom put on a show for nothing. I just decided to hurry up and get these few little dishes out the sink before my mom comes back out of her room to see them not done. Once I finished in the kitchen I sat on the couch and scrolled down Instagram. I posted a couple pictures last night with Enzo of us at the party with the caption being "New Friend😚" we got 86 likes and 5 comments. I couldn't tag him because I didn't have none of his social media yet. "That's something I need to add to my bucket list," I said aloud laughing at my own joke. If you laugh to your own jokes then that probably means that you're alone and bored all the time. My phone buzzed and it was a text from Enzo.
Enzo🔥: Goodmorning😍✨❤️
Jas👅💙: Morning😘
Enzo🔥: What you doing beautiful?😁
Jas👅💙: Just got done washing the dishes😒
Enzo🔥: You could've called me over there to help you out😏
Jas👅💙: You could've helped me with washing the dishes?😂 Yeaa okay👀
Enzo🔥: I'm just playing but are you coming out later?
Jas👅💙: Maybe, my mom tripping from me coming in so late last night.
Enzo🔥: Aww right, just lemme know if you get free. Okay ma?
Jas👅💙: Okay I gotchuu💰
When I sent that text I got in the shower and washed my body. Once I was done I slid on some yoga pants and a fitted light pink shirt. As I was fixing me something to eat my phone started ringing
Me: Hello?
Alexis: Heyy this Alexis, Enzo gave me your number. You want to have a sleepover tonight?
Me: Let me ask my mama and Ima text you what she say.
"Maaaa! Can I stay at Alexis house tonight?" I asked hoping she'd say yes. "I guess Jas, since you cleaned the house and stayed in all day. Stay away from the boys over there," she said answering my question. After I got my overnight bag I texted Alexis and told her to answer the door. The sleepover started.
