Detroit Elevado|A Love Story|

Chapter 7.

Lucas Coly.

"I just feel like you expect too much shit from me! Like fuck I'm trying." I yelled at my 'girlfriend' Zena, as we both stood outside of her house arguing back and forth.

Every other day it's a argument, or a problem that she has with me. It's like she only sees the bad, and totally overlooks the good that I do for her.

I always get accused for doing "dirt" but believe me, I ain't checkin' for another girl, if I was I wouldn't be here putting up with this shit. I just wish that she stopped letting insecurities get the best of her.

In fact, she had no reason to feel insecure. She was perfect in my eyes, the only one who truly supported me through everything.

What kind of fool would I be to let some shit like that go? She sighed as she crossed her arms and looked up at me with her slight light brown eyes.

"Lucas I know you trying, but I don't think you see things in my perspective."

"Then what is ya perspective?"

"You won't get it..." She paused as she looked around.

What do she mean I won't get it? This type of stuff was frustrating. How am I supposed to know what's on her mind if she don't speak up and tell me? That makes no sense.

"Well of course I won't. You not telling me anything." I said, stuffing my hands into the warmth of my front jean pockets.

"Lucas, I just think we both need a break. For now. The arguing isn't gettin us no where, and it seems like we staying together for the wrong reasons.." She mumbled softly.

I shook my head in rage, as I stood there waiting for her to continue. She stay running away from her problems & quick to call a 'break'

Like, didn't we just have one?

"Don't get me wrong, you know I love you. Scratch that, I'm in love with you. I just want us to be able to gain feelings, not loose them all over again. I'm not aiming for a break up, just a breather from all of this." Zena spoke sadly.

I wasn't the type to show my emotions on the outside, but in the inside I was pissed. I wouldn't expect for some shit like this to happen like damn.

All I could do was nod slowly, as she stare at me waiting for a better response. I avoided her eye contact as she brought her hands to my face, caressing my cheek.

"Lucas look at me." She begged quietly, as I only shook my head once again, taking her hands off my cheek as I walked away. She stood there with her head in her hands as if I was the one who ended shit.

I know she said it was only a break, but let's be real. This was a official break up, and we all knew it. And honestly, I was starting not to care.

Meech.

"Hi baby." Amber approached me, as passing period began. I smiled slightly as I grabbed her hand.

"Hey, why you not in class?" I asked, as I raised my eyebrow, bringing her close to me, so close that our lips we brushing against one another's.

"Passing period duh. And I also needed a pencil." She laughed out, I shook my head as I reached in my locker, soon handing her a regular yellow pencil.

"Uh, no. I need a led pencil" she pouted

"Listen nigga don't get picky."

She laughed as she kissed my lips. "Pleaseeeeeeee" She breathe out. I chuckled as I dug into my locker, retrieving once again another pencil, of course this time it being led. She grabbed it quickly as she rambled how she had to get to class, and that'd she catch me later.

"I better get my pencil back too! Niggas is in a recession." I yelled as she ran down the hallway laughing. This was no joke.

Lo.

"Oh, so you just gone ignore ya future boo like that?" I asked as Justys walked to hug zay, and skipped me. She laughed her angelic laugh, as I watched her walk over to me, embracing a huge hug. I licked my lips as I smiled to myself.

"Cry baby ass" She mumbled as her and zay laughed.

"Yeah, yeah but you like it."

"And who had spoken that lie?" Justys shot back.

"Oooop." Zay butted in, instigating.

"Let's not bring out text messages Justys." I indulged. She smiled as she grasped her phone, unlocking it, going to my contact where it had all out messages in it.

"Let's not Angelo."

"Okay nigga we not gone shoot out governments." I joked, she only laughed as the teacher began starting the lesson.

I was slowly zoning in an out, just staring at Justys. I wanted to make something work for us, but it just seemed to early. We've been flirting on and off for about 3 weeks and counting, and I didn't know if she knew that I felt for her or not. I didn't necessarily put my feelings out there for her to display, but I was hoping she at least got a clue.

At this point, I've been thinking am I moving too fast possibly? Maybe I should just wait it out, or maybe it will never become known. Maybe me and Justys will remain just friends.

Dario.

"Fuck man, it's cold." Quis said, as me and the rest of ProdiJee left the show. We had another gig, and of course we won. I can't lie though, it was a bit challenging, but we got through it, taking home the 1st place trophy. Now here we were, walking the cold streets of Detroit, trying to find food.

"No shit Sherlock." I said, as I shivered.

Riya laughed, as Quis hit my arm. Mouthing a "shut up". I smirked, as we continued to walk, my mind wondering about random stuff.

Soon, my thoughts came across Tiana, and the simple fact that we were partnered together. That was a real surprise for me, something I didn't expect. How could I be a partner with someone I barely knew? Yet alone someone who only talked when spoken to. I couldn't blame her though, I was sorta the same way. It just seemed a little off to me.

This partnering would be just plain awkward, and possibly cause forced conversations. Maybe I'm over analyzing things, but this was just a big question in my mind.

"Yo Dario, you down for Micky D's?" Riya said, snapping me out of my thoughts. I dazed for a moment as I slowly nodded my head, as we entered inside the wonders of Mcdonalds.
