If there was something I'd always avoid, It would be the strange faces that always surrounded Jahseh.
I stood around all the standing hyped people who had red cups in their hands.
Feeling as if the large band-aid failed to do its feeling my blood leaking through my sweater.
There were no eyes on me at this point causing me to sneak myself into the bathroom.
Before my fist connected to the door a boy and girl come out before laughing.
Getting a glimpse of my face in the large mirror before closing the door beside me.
It's as if I couldn't move once I got lost in the real emotions I was feeling.
Opening he cabinet to the right of the mirror taking another large band-aid from the small box.
Jahseh believed that with this ritual we'd be able to feel each other's emotions which I feared.
It could be a lot for the both of us but, We can't both manage. The old band-aid sank itself into the garage.
As I struggled to throw away all the scraps I hear the front door close and open repeatedly.
Rushing myself before applying the large band-aid onto my red stained skin.
Taking my phone which laid on the counter before letting myself out.
I seen a small group of people inside which were mainly girls, They made me feel insecure without trying.
Taking myself outside hearing faint yelling. I seen Stokeley in the crowd; "What's going on?".
"Jahseh claims he's sick of all the yes men" My eyes shoot at a shirtless Jahseh who's eyes were wider than ever when defending himself.
That's when I felt myself grow mad, It was a rage caused by nothings.
Denzel, Jahseh's helping hand stepped in before basically throwing everybody out.
"When I said; I don't like to fuck with niggas dawg!" Everyone seemed to back away once Jahseh's fist connected to a anonymous boy.
They looked at him as if he were crazy, Jahseh's body posture straightened before he had no regret over his face.
Jahseh pushed past the crowd before angrily taking himself into the house, Me and Stokeley decided to follow behind him.
Looking behind Stokeley seeing Jahseh's door which read XXX in his very own blood.
"You need to calm down Jahseh" Stokeley simply stated as I watched Jahseh bend over sitting on his bed.
The door was locked, I hoped that made him feel somewhat safe.
"I don't understand how people can be so blind" Jahseh growled before Stokeley crossed his arms taking off his pink hat laying it on the dresser.
"Jahseh what else did you expect from the guy? You called him out in front of everybody. He was simply embarrassed" Stokeley played the part of the older brother.
"He's a bitch" Stokeley's eyes shot at me before shaking his head.
"I'm sorry. I put you two in the worst position sometimes" Stokeley patted Jahseh's back.
"You made yourself look weak" I say bluntly causing Jahseh to stay silent.
He needed a push, "I'm going to help Denzel clean up" Stokeley let himself out.
Taking my hands to Jahseh's cheeks before making him look at me. "You can't shape people into what you want".
His eyes sparkle before closing them and pulling me close to him as I stood between his legs.
"It was you, you don't like the crowds do you?" I thought it was impossible, "What?".
"Nothing" he mumbled before taking my hand into his before a smirk widened on his face, "I'll just take it out on somebody tomorrow ".
