"You ready?" I asked my little brother Dylan as tied his shoelaces for him at the door.

"Yes!" He gushed excitedly. "Blade promised he'd let me play on his Wii next time I came over."

I giggled softly at his amusement, I loved that I was able to keep my little brother happy even though we were barely able to afford food or clothes. "Cmon." I say to him as I grab his hand leading him out of our trailer while I locked the door.

"Kimberly?" He asked as we walked down the trailer park to Blades place.

"Why do you have makeup on?" He asked me.

"Lipgloss isn't makeup Dylan but I'm going to see a friend." I tell him.

We finally make it to Blades trailer a couple houses down from ours. "Okay," I whisper to Dylan. "Now wait for me to get down there then knock on the doo-"

"Trying to avoid me I see." Blade swings the door open.

"Blade...." I let out an awkward chuckle. "How did you-" I glance over to his kitchen window that's permanently stuck open. "Oh." I mumble under my breath.

"Listen I get it you don't want to hear me shit talk your little boyfriend but the guy is bad news Kimberly, him, his family, and his boys are into-"

"Okay Blade I get it! I'm not marrying him we're just hanging out in a public setting," I emphasize the last part. "I work day to day back to back and can never get a chance to just breathe, this is my chance to just let lose for a couple of hours. Can you please just give me a break?" I exhale.

"Fine! I get it you don't want to be poor but sleeping your way out of poverty is not the way to go Kimberly!" He says to me as our argument begins to get even more heated.

I was so shocked with what he just said that I didn't even know how to respond to that, so I did what any reasonable person would do.

SMACK!

My hand burned from how hard I slapped him. "I find it funny that you would even insinuate that when you're the one that's sleeping with Blake's girlfriend!" I yell at him before turning around to leave.

"Kimberly wait!" He runs after me and grabs me by the arm. "I'm s-"

"Blade!" We both turn around and see Marlee, Blake's girlfriend in his sweatshirt with no pants on.

"Fuck you!" I say to Blade as I push his arm off. Of course he didn't say much because his love Marlee was there. Even though they didn't get together in the most conventional way it was obvious that the feelings were definitely there between both of them especially since it had been a year or so. Even though I wanted to slap the shit out of Blade again I was actually happy that they were together, I could tell she made him happy, and the only times that Marlee actually cracked a smile was when she was around Blade even though Blake was a catch I wondered why it never picked off between them.

I shook the thought of that and just tried to focus on the party, I didn't want Blade to ruin my night. Ring Ring Ring. I pick up my phone to see that Ryder is calling me. "Hello?"

"Hey I'm at the bus stop, do you want me to turn into the trailer par-" "Uh no no! I'll come to you." I cut Ryder off as I begin to jog towards the bus stop. "Kimberly, you know I know you live in a trailer park right?" Ryder asks me on the phone as I turn the corner and see a matte black Lamborghini parked at the bus stop, the tint was so dark that I couldn't even see who was inside but I notice the license plate says Ryder1 so I assumed it was Ryder.
