Kennedy...

Flashback..

I took a deep breath as I prepared for this date. About 20 minutes later we pulled up to this Italian restaurant we talked laughed ate I told him about what happened with Trent and that's how I ended up bumping into him after we ate we went to the movies he brought me back home said he had a nice time and wanted to take me out again I said yea. Later that night Lea called and told me about Mariya then told me her and Jeremiah made it official I was happy for my best friend she deserves to be happy.

Flashback over..

I've been distant lately besides school on spend all my time with rich we actually became a couple 3 days ago. Lea been calling me but I just don't have time to answer she knows I'm dating she just doesn't know it's Rich I found out he was her moms boyfriend son a while back I don't care tho he makes me happy.

Rich...

Man I been taking this girl out and everything making her feel like she special. We been going out the past month and she slowly been feeding me info on Aalea she know too much about Jeremiah except the fact that he gotta daughter she don't even know she feeding info to the enemy hell the second part of the plan almost complete her and Aalea barely talk. I can't wait Jeremiah gone wish he never fucked with me. Right now I'm at her house in her couch she straddling my lap playing with my dreads. "Bae how come you never wear your dreads you or pulled back" she asked I shrugged my shoulders "Shid I don't know... What you want me to? " "Yeah I wanna see what it would look like" she said smiling "Gone head do you" I said she ran up stairs and came back straddling my lap again she grabbed a rubber band and was about to put it on when we heard somebody unlock her door.

Aalea...

Sitting on the couch was Kennedy straddling Rich's lap I stopped and stood there for a while Jeremiah came in and stopped in his tracks he grabbed me and whispered in my ear we gotta go. I told him go wait in the car while I talk to Ken he immediately left. "Ken can I talk to you for second?" we walk to the kitchen she sat on a stool "What's up Lea" "I've been calling you... Since when are you and rich dating you do know that's Mark's son? " "I seen you calling I just been busy we been talking for a month just made it official 3 days ago and yea I know so what" "when were you going to tell me and I called because I needed you Mark tried to rape me Ken" "like I said I been busy and I'm sorry that happened to you" "I needed you Ken and you weren't there.... I don't think you should trust Rich Ken something ain't right" "Really Aalea you are so selfish now that I'm happy you don't want me to be... And you always need me Aalea ever since we were little you needed me to protect you stop being selfish and stingy it can't always be about you I really like rich and I'm go continue to see him reguardless

...I can't believe you Aalea and I don't believe Mark would to try and rape you I want look at you" "You know what Ken your absolutely right I have always needed you but not no more whatever friendship we had is through and please don't come calling or crawling back to me trying to apologize when the nigga fucks you over" with that I walked out of the house with tears in my eyes and you throat hurting from holding my sobs in I couldn't believe in less than an hour I lost my mom and the only best friend I had. I only had a couple people on my side Jeremiah Mike yeah I said Mike Heath been a great friend over the past month we been hanging alot he even met Jeremiah when he dropped me off at school one day they hit it off and now of anything goes on Mike calls or texts Jeremiah but still step in at the same time. But back to the matter at hand now I gotta find somewhere to stay like fast I guess I was thinking a little to hard because I stopped crying and I heard Jeremiah call my name.

"Aalea? " Jeremiah called

"yea" I answered

"What you thinking about baby" he asked
