Family Ties

Harmoni

"Let's go!" I push my sister out of her apartment. "Mommy said she'll watch him tonight, so let's go." I shut the door behind us. "I know I just want to stay home." She pouts making me roll my eyes."Listen we finally turn 21 today we are going out and getting fucked up alright?" I grab her hand and giving a reassuring squeeze, she nods reluctantly. "Alright cheer up, Oliver is going to meet us at the club okay?" I ask looking down at my phone texting him that we are leaving now. Oliver is my boyfriend of five years, we've been dating since I was 16 and he was 17."Yeah." She follows me in the elevator checking her phone. The screensaver was a picture of her and Liam. In the reflection of the mirror on the elevator, I notice a strand of my hair is out of place. My hair is pressed and it reaches down my back . I have on a red criss cross halter crop top and high waist white pants with my red heels. My sister has faux locs in her hair and she's wearing a satin red slip  dress that ended at her mid-thigh as well as white high heels. We both have a deep brown complexion that makes just about any color pop."Tonight is going to be fun trust me." I grab her hand and she nods. We both get in the Uber that Oliver ordered for us and head to the club. As we are walking down the street from where the Uber dropped us off I can see Oliver's car. I grab Honesty's hand and rush to the club, I can see Oliver talking to the bouncer at the front of the line. "Oli!" I yell running up and hugging him."Hey, beautiful." He chuckles and kisses me, then looking behind me at Honesty. "You look amazing Honest." He says hugging her, before turning around to get in wrapping his arm around the both of us. "These are the beautiful women I told you about." He laughs."Very beautiful." The bouncer says but his eyes linger on Honesty who isn't paying anyone any attention. He was maybe a few inches taller than Oli who is 6'4 for this guy had to be 6'6. He has brown hair and green eyes that popped against his slightly tanned skin."Go ahead in." He says moving to let us through."Honest, I think he liked you," I say over the music as we make our way to the bar."You think?" She asks me I nod my head. "I mean he is cute." She laughs a little before grimacing her face."What's wrong?" Oliver asks."That guy slapped my ass." She grunts turning to look at this guy who is walking backward-looking at her."Ignore him." I take her hand and lead her to the bar. As the night passes we start having fun, club hopping but as we leave the first club I manage to slide the bouncer my sister's number. Before long all three of us are wasted as we try to make it back to my place which is closer to where we are. Once inside Honesty goes to take a shower and change in my guest bathroom."You look amazing tonight," Oliver says picking me up and heading to my room."I know." I laugh as he throws me on my bed.                                                                                          

                                                                                     Honesty

I can hear her moans coming from her room as I get out of the shower sobered up some. I pull out my phone to see a text from the bouncer from the first club. Of course, Harmoni gave him my number. I leave him on read and go to find the pajamas I always leave here in case. I am about to order an Uber to my place so I don't have to hear them have sex. But most importantly I can sleep in my own bed. I grab my things and order my ride and it says that he is 10 minutes away and has to drop someone off around here. I'm about to cancel and get another that is hopefully closer when the bedroom door opens. Oliver walks in with sweats on drinking water. I mean I guess that was a literal quickie."What do you want?" I ask slipping an extra pair of sneakers I keep at my sister's on about to leave."Here." He says throwing something at me I catch it on instinct and look down. "Money for Liam's diapers and formula." He says scratching the back of his neck."I never asked you for any money." I get up and give it back to him."You didn't have to." He shoves the money back into my hand. "Liam is my son too." He whispered looking me in my eyes. "Take the money.""Fine." I take it because it would actually be a help and shove it in my purse before going to walk out. I feel a sting on my ass. Before I can turn around and knock his teeth down his throat my sister calls his name."Coming babe!" He says walking past me winking heading back to the room.I go towards the kitchen to grab some food and wait for my ride. I send Harmoni a text before leaving to go home. Where I can cuddle up with one of the cutest little boys in the world.
