Brittany Hills Chronicles: Act 2

Ronnie 68

We waited for about three hours before Black and Slim came into the house, it was clear that they had no idea we were here and after an awkward moment of us just looking at each other, Black grabbed a jacket, handed Slim something to cover up then walked upstairs leaving a trail of water behind them. I really didn't care that Black was messing with Slim and it didn't bother me that he hadn't told me about it, I knew coming out was difficult although my story was pretty simple I knew others who went through hell coming out. After waiting like twenty minutes we decided to go meet up with Raheim and Courtney since it was clear that Black and Slim weren't coming back down any time soon, plus I don't think I was ready for my night with Antwan to end. We pulled up to Raheim's house, walked down to the basement where De'veon was laying across the bed playing the game while Raheim and Courtney talked quietly; I still hadn't figured Courtney out yet, I've heard the horror stories from Antwan but to me he seemed like a chill dude, then again he did have a habit of shooting indiscriminately so maybe there was some truth to what Antwan had told me.

"I thought you were heading back down south?" Antwan asked sitting at the base of the stairs and I sat behind him while Courtney turned towards him and smirked. "You think this is a game but you shot Hassan... not that I'm complaining but if you get locked up then I'll have you hear your dad's mouth and I really don't feel like dealing with that type of drama."

"Twan look at me bruh... do I look like I give a fuck about going to jail or my old man? Let me answer that for you I don't..... as for Hassan I knew exactly what I was doing; I shot him below the waist which means the most they can charge me with is aggravated assault or assault with a deadly weapon which can easily be beaten in court since technically I was defending myself. Now.... had I shot him just a couple inches higher then I'd get attempted murder which is a whole other animal, so trust me when I say I knew what I was doing which was sending a message.... Hassan is only alive because I allowed it and he knows that at any given moment I could change my mind, I think he'll back off for now." Courtney said and for the first time, I saw what Antwan was talking about... Courtney had planned out every detail even down to his defense which made him in my eyes at least, someone who was very calculated and dangerous because if he plans his shooting and still goes through with it that tells me he just doesn't give a fuck.

"Aight I tried to warn you...... Raheim have you taken care of that thing I asked you about?" Antwan said but Raheim was so occupied with De'veon that he wasn't paying attention. "Good talk." Antwan said sarcastically.

"Ayy Ronnie I heard that y'all got a new houseguest." Raheim said turning towards me and I nodded.

"Yeah some dude named Idris and......" Before I could finish DeVeon jumped up and looked at me, his face a mask of confusion.

"Dark-skinned, thick neck, kinda looks like Tay?" De'Veon asked and I nodded. "Oh shyt.... Rah I gotta go, I'll call you later." De'veon said kissing him quickly and damn near running out the basement.... okay that was weird as fuck, obviously, De'veon knew Idris my only question is why did he seem so damn scared at the very mention of his name. Before going back to Black's house me and Antwan stopped by the house so I could grab a couple things and also see if I could get some information about Idris because knowing Jace he'd know everything about him by now.

"Wassup Ronnie." Sir Michael said as I walked into the house, he and Carter were sitting in the living room playing the game and I nodded but didn't reply because my history with Sir Michael was.... complicated. It wasn't like we disliked each other but there was always this tension between us that I couldn't explain.

"Where's Jace?" I asked Carter who shrugged. "Okay, where's Dejon?" I asked and I could see that Carter was getting irritated because he was losing in the game, so inside of putting him in one of his infamous moods I walked upstairs to see if Tay was only to remember that he was still at his mom's house. As I made my way to my room Idris walked out of Valentino's ro.... his room and we stood there staring at each other. "Uhh this is my boyfriend Antwan." I said making introductions and Idris nodded.
