As a teen, it is common to get caught up in love, the love of money, and drugs. How does Dulce juggle all three? Will she be able to handle it or will she hurt herself trying?
Joseph dropped my suitcase gently before running after the girl he mentioned would be here. He chased her up the stairs and to a bedroom where she shut it in his face, but she wasn't quick enough to lock it. He went inside and closed the door behind him. What a bitch. I dragged my suitcase and bags closer towards the steps and sat on them, waiting for him to give me a place to sleep. I waited and waited and waited until my eyelids felt like boulders were being stacked on top of them. I stood up, shaking the sleep away, and decided to go see what was taking so long. I walked up the stairs, and opened the door I saw them go inside of. "Did you forget about me?" I asked Joseph, as he and the girl lay in the bed looking at something on his phone, laughing. His smile soon faded once he realized that he had left me downstairs. "Aw damn, I'm so sorry. I just had to show Dulce something, and I kinda forgot you were downstairs. Do you forgive me?" He reached out for a hug, and I accepted it. "Um, Dulce, this is Leila. Leila, Dulce. Leila was kinda having family trouble and got kicked out, so she needed a place to crash, and well, you know the rest. I'll be back, Dulce, I have to show her where she sleeping." Joseph said, and Dulce and I said hello to one another. We started walking out of the room and towards another. He went downstairs to get my bags, and helped me get situated. "Thanks, Joseph. I really appreciate it." I smiled at him, and he smiled back. Joseph and I have been friends since freshman year when we were partners in biology, and since then we've just been like brother and sister, but this was way too nice of him, so he must have feelings for me. "Do you wanna sleep with me tonight?" I asked. I didn't want to seem too slutty, but it was too late now. "What? You scared?" He joked around, bouncing down on the bed. "Kind of." I tried not to look him in the eye, so I wouldn't bluff. "Okay, fine. Let's go the hell to sleep because a nigga is tired." He took his basketball shorts off and was left in his boxers, so I took off my cotton pajama set, and was left in a sports bra and black panties. I felt his glare as I stripped in front of him, but when I turned around he was fast asleep.
DULCE'S POV I ended up falling asleep waiting for Joseph to come back with the video, and when I woke up it was nearly the afternoon, so I jumped up to shower and get dressed. I walked downstairs to get breakfast, and saw Leila and Joseph throwing cereal at each other. I rolled my eyes internally. This girl literally has the body of a 30 year old woman and acts like she's 15. Was I jealous? Of course. She's literally the most gorgeous woman in the world, but I'm not going to let it ruin my life. I smiled at them. "Good morning, guys." I grabbed the almond milk out of the fridge and put it on the counter, and reached for the Cheerios on top of the fridge, but of course it was just out of my reach. "I gotchu." Joseph ran to my rescue and retrieved the box and handed it to me. "How can you drink almond milk? Doesn't it taste funny to you?" Leila asked, putting her dish in the sink, WITHOUT washing it. "It's a better alternative for regular milk and it tastes fine to me so I buy myself the almond and Joseph gets the regular." I replied, pouring the milk into my cereal. She gave me a half assed smile. This is definitely going to be a weird ass day.
