"I shouldve listened to my momma and never let you in my life!

I woke up hearing Gina's voice fade away repeating the same sentence over and over. I had to take a cold ass shower to cool off cause my body felt like inferno on Earth. I Changed my sheets to dry ones since I sweated a rain storm through the whole night. "I made my own key to yo house by the way" Peanut popped his head in with a bowl of cereal in his hand.

I stopped dead in my tracks with a confused look plastered on my face. "Nigga when did you do that?" I asked.

He scooped some milk and cereal onto his spoon and inserted it into his mouth,pulling the spoon out, and placing it back in the bowl. "Lastnight" he said in a duh tone while crunching loudly. From where I stood this nigga ate some of my Cinnamon toast crunch cereal.

I didn't have time to fight this nigga for stealing my keys or my cereal so I just strolled into my walk in closet, shutting the door behind me to get dressed.

"Shit as much as you call us over...
we deserve a key" Peanut yelled through the door.

"Ginnaaa" I say in a sing song tune making her giggle after she opened the door to reveal a giddy me with a box of pizza and DVDs at hand. I decided to go spend time with her since I ain' have shit else to do. She said her momma wouldn't be home for the whole day so I could come chill with her.

We went in her room instead of her living room cause she said its more comfortable in her bed than the couch that was covered with plastic. I didnt argue and only followed her to her purple room. It was nicely decorated, fit for a girl like Gina. A book shelf full of books, her own computer desk and a bed that could fit two to three people.

Gina took one of my dvd cases that held different movies and popped the DVD into the player. I opened the top of the pizza box lid, handing Gina a paper plate.
The movie played as we ate in silence but I couldnt help to not stare at Gina most of the time through the whole movie. She had a smile that I couldnt get over.

I could never show or tell her how I feel. It would only leave me vulnerable to attack and my last relationships taught me to act as if I didnt have a heart but as of right now, I was slipping up because of her. She got some sauce on the side of her cheek making me want to inform her that she to wipe it off.

"Gina" I said getting her attention, I pointed at where the sauce was located. "You got a little sumn sumn".

"Oh damn" she said lifting her fingers up to wipe it off, but kept missin where it was. I decided to wipe it off with my thumb. She looked dumbfounded and stuck when I placed my thumb on her cheek softly to wipe it all up. I got napkin, cleaned the sauce off my thumb, and trash bucket the now used tissue. She thanked me and I just nodded my head.

The movie was about a hour and twenty minutes long. And just when I was about to pop another movie in, Gina looked at the time and jumped up, almost tripping off the bed. "My mom gonna be home in any minute you gotta go!" She urged dashing out the room. I chuckled, not looking to clean up and only walked out the room.

She held the door open and I smiled at her. "You know, I had a nice time" she said tipping her head side way with her hands on her hips when I entered the hallway and turned around. I leaned forward to kiss her cheek only to whisper "me too, Gina". I heard her breath hitch abruptly confirming that I did have an effect on her.

"Bye" she said closing the door slowly. "Bye" I repeated, walking down the steps. Realizing she never closed the door and watched me leave until I was outside.

"Soft pussy bitch" Peanut shouted with each word. I threw one of my tennis balls at him which landed on his head.
