Brittany Hills Chronicles: Act 1

Ronnie 47

My legs were completely jello..... I was still on the hot seat with my coach for getting suspended so he decided to take it out on the entire team and put us through hell, but we needed the practice because even though we were the number two team in the city, we were going up against one of the best duos. Antwan was under the impression that the niggas we were playing against Khris and Irvin were fucking because 'nobody has that level of chemistry unless they've fucked' Antwan had a competitive side and he wanted to prove that we were the best duo in the city, so we were pushed to the limit today. I laid on my bed with Antwan on the opposite end, I really wished that dude wasn't coming this week because I would definitely be staying the night at his house but I guess I just stay over there after the game on Friday and stay there the entire weekend, since our last argument we've been on pretty good terms but there was still a huge elephant in the room which was my feelings for Carter.

"Man we better not lose on Friday..... my Uncle Seven is going to be at the game and I don't feel like hearing that niggas mouth if we lose because that nigga stays talking shyt, he swears basketball is a 'soft sport'." Zyn said tossing the ball in the air.

"I guess we're going to have to show out, but I'm not worried those niggas were ass last year I think we blew them out by like forty." I said snatching the ball from out the air. "But I'm trying to go to Chipotle......" I said looking at Antwan.

"Aight we can go as soon as I get feeling back in my legs, I blame you for all them damn sprints we had to do.... you just couldn't keep your mouth shut, could you?" Antwan asked with a little smirk on his face.

"I'm sorry but Coach be talkin shyt and I'm not going to........." The door opened wider and Jace stood there looking beyond pissed.

"This conversation is super boring..... here I was expecting to hear so tea being spilled like y'all comparing dick sizes or y'all plotting an orgy but yet y'all are in here talking about soccer or whatever sport it is y'all play." Jace said shaking his head. "But if y'all are going to Chipotle I'm coming too." Jace said twirling around and walking off.

"Let the record show that there is NO competition when it comes to who has the biggest dick in this room." Tay said from the corner which caused a heated debate between him and Zyn which I wanted no parts of, me and Antwan decided to go wait in his car since this had turned into a field trip.

"I wanna help you find your real family..... I know you said that you would want to meet them and I figured we could use the time we spend talking about shyt that doesn't really matter we could direct that time into something that's truly important to you.... I mean you know where I stand on ninety-nine percent of things let's start something new." Antwan said and again he showed me how selfless he was which made me feel even more guilty about the whole Carter situation.

"Antwan I......" He gave me a quick kiss and shook his head.

"I know..... I know you got feelings for dude, it's understandable because y'all are around each other twenty-four seven and yeah I get jealous some times but I would never ask you to apologize for your feelings and it's not like you're actively going after him, that's all on Carter. He's going through something that I couldn't imagine and I'm not an evil dude all I want is for y'all to be able to work through y'alls issue whatever they may be with it hurting me..... that could be a longshot but I'm really feeling you and every second those feelings get stronger. I know I'm rambling but you make me nervous......" Antwan said smiling.

"You make me nervous too..... because this is something different than what I'm used to and I would never intentionally try to hurt you and my feelings are growing as well like, I used to just like you and now I really, really like you and maybe that's growing in lov....."

"Ayy y'all wanna go to a game this weekend?" Zyn said sliding in the backseat with Tay and Jace killing the entire mood. "My uncle got some tickets to the Grizzlies game down in Memphis and I'm not trying to drive down there by myself, we can leave Friday after the game and get a hotel room or rooms and stay for the weekend my brother Zach is coming too though but he's chill." Zyn said.

"Hell yeah....." Antwan said excitedly and I shrugged any excuse to get out this damn house I would take it.

"This weekend is going to be LIT fight on Friday and game on Saturday, I might have to pull out my Sunday best if I'm going to snag me a baller." Jace said and I turned around and looked at him. "What you know damn well there's always a fight after the basketball game, and football games and whatever other sporting events we have against them, I mean they are our rivals. What did you think I was referring to?" Jace asked, instead of answering I decided to not push the issue because the last thing I needed as Jace's nosy ass questioning me about what Dejon was doing, Dejon hasn't even told me about the fight club yet so I took that as he didn't want anyone to know which meant keep my damn mouth shut.

The next day was pretty boring, school was super fast but I knew it only seemed like that because that dude Devin was supposed to be coming by tomorrow which meant bitch ass Collins was coming through to do a walk through today. We got outta school and we were all sitting around while Collins did his inspection and I noticed Carter with a far off look in his eyes, I haven't really spoken to him since the night his uncle showed up and despite everything we've been going through in terms of our former situation he was still my boy and I wanted to make sure he was good and see how his sessions were going with the school counselor.

"You good?" I mouthed and he didn't so much as blink, it was like he was in a trance only when I tapped him on the shoulder did he come out of it. "You good?" I asked again and he nodded.

"Yeah.... just thinking. But uhh, I kinda need a favor from you..... it's not like that I just really need for you to ball out on Friday, I kinda put some money I don't really have on y'all winning. Valentino is under the impression that since them niggas got a new coach who is supposed to be seriously legit and all my money is tied up with this lawyer." Carter said smirking. "Please just go out there and don't embarrass me."

"Rondell I need you to help me move these boxes around in the basement." Collins said and I was tempted to throw my phone at him, when I stood up so did Dejon, Valentino, Carter and Jace all stood up to go with me. "Dejon, you and Valentino need to go clean the bathroom again there are scuff marks all over the floor, Jace I need you to vacuum your floor and Carson or whatever you need to go pick up the trash in front of the house." Collins said and everyone just stood there looking at him.

"We'll do it after RonRon gets finished in the basement.... I don't trust your perverted ass and you know that so until I'm absolutely sure that you're not up to anything fishy I'm going to wait right here..... I thought you weren't allowed back at this house until the investigation is finished." Dejon said pissed, Collins turned bright red and stomped off into the office leaving us all standing there.

"Bitch can I just say his outfit was cute, he's serving us Nursing Home realness and I'm here for it bitch." Jace said pulling out his fan and I swear that dude was always throwing shade but I wouldn't want anyone to take his place.

"Yeah well Collin, was, is and always will be a bitch and the second I leave this bitch I'm going to throw a brick through his window. Fuckin dweeb....." Carter said punching his hand.

"Did you just call that nigga a dweeb?" I said cracking a smirk.

"He is a fuckin dweeb, I'm willing to bet anything that there's nothing wrong with any of the rooms either, I think he just wanted an excuse to get you alone so he could secretly take pictures of your ass while you're bending over to pick up them boxes." Carter said and I could see that fire in his eyes, letting me know that even though he was smiling he was secretly pissed.

"Ayy Jace, that nigga you refuse to introduce us to just pulled up." Valentino said pointing out the window at the Range Rover that Jace was always disappearing into and I was about to follow him outside and be nosy since that's what he would do but I was distracted by that pearl white Maserati Gran Turismo that pulled up behind the Range Rover and wondered who that could be. Collins, Ms. Gina, and Big Mike all walked out the office or rather they almost ran out the office and over to the door damn near tripping over each other.

"He's early....." Collins said nervously before turning to us. "You little hoodrats better not fuck this up." He said so that only me and Jace could hear him and he didn't realize the mistake he had just made because Jace was about to put on one of the best performances of his life...........................
