“What we do ain't nobody’s business…”
(Chris POV)
My Auntie and Momma were clownin a brotha so I decided to go to KJ and Aaron’s room and see if he would take us around today. I was SO HAPPY Sweets was here and it’s crazy how it just felt right to have her by my side. When I went to KJ’s room he was sleep. So I tried to wake the him up.
“KJ…Wake up!” I said hitting him in his arm. He looked up at me.
“Yo can you take me and my girl around today?” I asked.
“Your Girl?” He asked looking at me crazy.
“Yea you know the one I been telling ya’ll about.” I said stepping out the way and pointing at Sweets. “This is Sweets.”
“No shit…What up Shawty. Man I'm still sleepy have Robb or Aaron take you.” He said laying back down.
“Uh uuh.” We heard Aaron say. “Hi by the way.” He said now waving from up under the cover.
“Hi you guys.” She said laughing.
“Man come on ya’ll…This is messed up! Exactly why I need my own car.” I said throwing a pillow at KJ.
"I think you would need a permit first." Sweets said laughing.
"Pssh...We in the country that shit on't matter down here Shorty." I informed her then hitting KJ with the pillow again.
“Quit Punk…Shit I’m tired…I had to work last night.” KJ said finally sitting up on the side of his bed.
“Come on!” I said throwing a pillow at Aaron now.
“Stop!” Aaron said “Man, I’m up!” He said finally standing up. I noticed the way he looked at Sweets and I took a mental note of it.
“Oh hey…How you doing…I’m Aaron.” He said reaching out to shake her hand. I saw her reaction to him and I took a mental note of that too.
Believe me I'm not an insecure person especially when it came to my family even tho we have fought over girls all our lives. I’m more observant. I like to stay ahead of any situation that can bring trouble later. And I just peeped that Aaron was feelin Sweets and that’s not going down!
She's mine.
“So where Gonzo and Robb?” I asked walking over to Sweets and putting my arm around her waist.
“They probably still sleep too.” KJ said as Aaron walked to the door.
“I’ll go get em up.” Aaron said before going down the hall.
“Ya Mama cooked.” I said to KJ who was getting his clothes together.
“Aight…cause I'm starvin!” He said rubbing his stomach. Sweets began to laugh.
“What's so funny?” I asked her.
“He said that just like you.” She laughed some more.
“Aye a brotha be needin his food!” I said laughing too. She just shook her head so I grabbed her hand.
“Come on.” I said leading her down the hallway.
Robb, Gonzo, Lil Austin and Aaron were all in the living room eating and watching TV. I deceided to introduce Sweets.
“Aye this is Sweets.” I said to Robb and Gonzo who waved at her.
“Sweets this my other cousins Danzell but we call him Gonzo and that's Robb.” I said to her and she waved back.
“Hey you guys.” She said.
“Sup?” They both said to her.
“What’s up?” I said cause she was shaking her head.
“Damn you were right you do got a lot of cousins.” She said laughing.
“You ain't even seen half of them.” Robb finally spoke walking to put his plate up.
“Yea he right I told you half this town is my cousin….I gotta let you meet my sister too.” I said.
“You have a big ass family.” She said. “When can I meet your Dad?”
“I will call him. Hey I’m bout to take a shower and get dressed…You gonna be cool in here.” I said to her.
“Damn we ain't gonna bite her.” Gonzo said.
“Look I know I’m just making sure she straight.” I said as they laughed.
“I’ll be fine I got to get my bags out your Mom’s trunk anyway so go ahead.” She said heading towards the door.
“I will help you!” Lil Austin said jumping up and following her.
“Thanks Lil man…Go ahead you know you take forever.” She said to me.
“Aight.” I said going back downstairs to pick me out an outfit and jump in the shower.
I knew my cousins and they were definitely gonna test Sweets to see if she was down for me or a groupie, like Monique. They see what I go through with girls and old homies trying to get next to me cause of my singing. So they are good for reading people and calling em out. Especially the females cause they just take them off my hands. First lesson I learned: some of these females will do anything to try to get close to money and I ain't even have money yet.
Crazy!
I didn’t need them to read Sweets tho cause I knew she down for me. No matter what that’s my best friend and that part will never change. REAL FRIENDS are hard to find. I hopped out the shower and got dressed I heard Keeis still snoring…that fool always sleep I thought I laughing to myself as I looked at the clock: 12:00 pm. Damn, time flew...I got my studio session at 4! I had this song I had been working on. I wanted Sweets to understand that I loved her and I wanted to make it official. She never said anything about the CD I made for her which sucks and I was too afraid to ask her about it so I left it alone and thought I would try again with a new song.
“B you ready yet? I’m getting the 3rd degree up here!” She said laughing hard as I heard them all laughing and talking loud.
SHE PASSED
Now time to make her mine…
