I laughed as Herb did another donut in the road

" Nigga chill the feds gon' pull yo ass over " Zae said from the back laughing

" Ain't nobody even out hea' y'all needa live a bit " he said smiling

I shook my head and held onto the handle above the door

" Woaaahhh " me and Zae said in unisons as he swerved all over

We laughed then he started driving normal again

" Ma and Pops gonna get us for being out late again " I said

" They'll be alright. They know nothing won't happen to y'all whenever you guys with me " Herb said

I nodded

" Uh Herb I think I spilled my drink on your seat..... again " Zae said from the back

" Zae!! Again?! " he yelled

" Yeah.... Sorry Herb. I couldn't hold it cause you was driving crazy " she said

He groaned and shook his head

" It's alright... You good " he said

" Man your worser then a toddler Zae " I said laughing

" Oh Kira hush like you can talk... Ms. I pee myself on the bus cause I can't hold it " she said

" It was 2nd grade for fucks sake! " I yelled

Her and Herb laughed like it was the funniest thing in the world

" How did that happen anyways? " he asked

" Zae was the one who persuaded me to drink the water down like shots and shit in class and soon as we got on the bus and the bus driver hit that speed bump " I said as I then shook my head

He laughed again

" Zae always getting you in trouble " he said

" Yeah I know tell me about " I said

They laughed again and I shook my head smiling as I looked out the window and in the rear view

" Uh... Herb " I said

" Hmmm? " he said glancing over at me

" Your being pulled over " I said as my anxiety started to kick in instantly

" Ugh these mafuckas never let a nigga be great " he said as he started to pull over

I sat up straight and looked forward

" Be cool " he said

" Nigga you be cool " Zae whispered

I snickered

Herb rolled his window down as the cop came flashing that bright ass flashlight in our face

" Gahhhdamn " Herb said looking away

" Sir can you care to explain why you were speeding in a 35 mph zone? " he asked

" I wasn't.... I was doing the speed limit " Herb said

The officer moved the light off us and I blanked my eyes trying to regain my vision after seeing hella floaters

" Well my speed tracker said you was doing 100 " he said
