Kai.

"Parker can you cut that down I'm trying to study." I told him as he played his video game in the living room.

It was loud as hell and the living room was the only place I was able to study because Harmony was in the bedroom with her music loud. It's been 3 weeks since we had the family meeting and Parker was here even twice as more as he was before and I liked but sometimes he was mad annoying. Like now.

"I was here first."

"I'm trying to study this is more important than some video game." I rolled my eyes and his eyes never left the screen.

"I took the pillow on the couch and hit him in the head with it. "Ouch."

"Cut it down."

"Aight fine fine." He paused it and sat next to me on the couch looking over my shoulder.

"What are you working on anyways?"

"AP calc..I have to keep my grades up because you know colleges do take their back acceptance if you slack off your senior year."

"You going to college?" He asked confused. I don't know why, what else would I do with my life if I didn't?

"I have the grades so why not? In plus I want the experience and I need to in order to be a forensic anthropologist."

"A what?"

"A doctor who studies the dead and the reason someone dies."

"What made you want to go into that field?"

"Well when I was in this one foster home when I was eight all my foster mom watched was crime shows and I loved them. I always knew I wanted to do something with crime since I was young and when I got to high school I figured it out."

"So you want to examine dead people's bodies for a living?" He asked looking at me weird and I nodded my head.

"If it wasn't for this family I wouldn't have pushed myself so hard in school because I was afraid they were going to give me up if I wasn't. I maintained straight A's my first three years with them to show them that I was worthy to be kept. I guess I'm so accustom to straight A's now but before I was with them I didn't care for school..or my future. I know I'm smart enough to be apart of forensic science and that's my passion so simple sticking to it."

"Good. Your going places and I'm just gonna be another nigga on the street. You know what Kai I been thinking a lot about who you are...and who I am and I don't want to get in the way with your success or bring you down so I think it's best if we stay friends...forever. You going places and I don't want to fuck that up."

"Why are you telling me this? We are not dating and you really think I want a relationship after almost getting my ass beat? And don't say that about yourself you can go far also but you have to believe in yourself and you need a plan."

"I've never been the type to hold my tongue. However I'm feeling you and whatever I'm thinking you will know. You was gonna be mine eventually if I let it go that far." He smirked and I hit him playfully laughing.

"Boy stop."

" For real. It's to late for me to plan out my life I fucked up enough in high school..and even if I did go to college who gonna pay for it? I'm not as smart as you and I don't know what I want to do with my life after I leave high school..you got your shit all mapped out."

"And you can too. Here give me your hands." I put my stuff down and he reluctantly placed both of his hands in mine. "Close your eyes."

"Eyes closed."
