part eight

"nick?" jahseh shouted. stokeley snapped his attention towards jahseh who was now running towards the shore. stokeley looked over in the direction he was running in confusion.

"the hell is this boy doin?" he muttered to himself, dropping the frisbee on the ground and jogging towards jahseh.

jahseh finally reached nick, grabbing him by the shoulder and forcefully turning him around, only to find out that the boy was not nick. the dude looked at him weirdly and shrugged his hand off of his shoulder.

"f-fuck i am so sorry—i thought you were someone i knew" he apologized. the guy chuckled and waved him off.

"chill baby boy—uh so what's yo name?" the guy asked with a smirk on his face. jahseh looked at him in confusion.

"jahseh—what about you?" he asked skeptically. the guy smiled showing off his grill.

"it's michael but i go by trippie" he said, sticking out his hand. jahseh grabbed his hand and shook it, ignoring how long the handshake lasted. suddenly stokeley had appeared behind jahseh panting heavily. jahseh jumped and laughed at stokeley who had his hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath.

"the hell is you doin" stokeley asked in between breaths. michael looked at the dark skin boy weirdly. he thought he was standing too close to jahseh.

"oh i thought this dude was nick but nah, it's just trippie" jahseh said with a shrug. stokeley looked at the boy in front of him and scrunched up his face.

"you thought this nigga was nick?" stokeley asked in disbelief. jahsehs jaw dropped as he swatted at stokeleys chest. trippie chose to ignore the comment, only because he didn't want to make a bad impression on jahseh.

"leave me alone okay? he was far away and the sun was directly in my face" jahseh chuckled. stokeley rolled his eyes and waved the smaller boy off making jahseh kiss his teeth.

"shut your fat ass up—ole uglyahh—all that damn pantin you was doin?—nigga i was like three feet away" jahseh joked, poking stokeley in his side. stokeley frowned and pinched jahsehs side making him yelp and try to get him back. michael watched the two boys continue to bicker back and forth. he cleared his throat making them stop and turn their attention back to him.

"are you guys together...or?"

"nah, i'm not gay" stokeley said right off the bat making jahseh frown. michael smiled gratefully and pulled out his phone.

"so that means that lil ma over here is single, correct?" he asked hopefully. jahseh hesitated before nodding his head numbly. stokeley watched the scene before him with a small frown on his face. michael handed jahseh his phone so he could put his number in.

"i'll text you later, ight?" he said to jahseh. jahseh nodded and gave him a weak smile. the two boys watched michael slide his phone back in his pocket and walk off happily. stokeley couldn't help but feel a little angry that jahseh gave a total stranger his number. it's not that stokeley is jealous or anything, he just doesn't want anything to happen to his best friend.

"stokeley can we go somewhere and eat? i'm hungry" jahseh whined, poking at stokeleys bare chest. stokeley cleared his throat and chuckled. he nodded at jahseh who clapped his hands excitedly and began running back up towards where their stuff was. stokeley trudged behind him, shaking his head fondly.

••••

"what's wrong?" jahseh muttered curiously, looking over at stokeley who was staring at the wall in front of him instead of eating his food. stokeley shook his head and looked down, grabbing a fry out of the bag and munching on it slowly. jahseh turned in his seat so he could face stokeley.

"stop lying and tell me what's up stoke" jahseh said. stokeley knew jahseh wasn't going to give up on asking him what was wrong. he might as well get everything off of his chest now.

"that dude at the beach.."

"what about him?"

"ion know..just something about him seemed a little off—and why the hell did you give him your phone number jah? he could be a whole ass serial killer" jahseh rolled his eyes playfully letting out a loud laugh at stokeleys assumptions. of course he'd think that michael is a serial killer. he thinks everyone that jahseh hangs around is a serial killer except himself of course.

"maybe i find serial killers cute" jahseh joked but stokeley was clearly not amused. jahseh sighed and placed his hand on top of stokeleys. stokeley looked down at their hands and back up to jahseh.

"stokeley chill, trippie seems absolutely harmless and i really want to get to know him..maybe our friendship will lead to something else?—i don't know but please don't worry yourself over me" jahseh pleaded. stokeley exhaled loudly and stared at jahseh for a few moments. jahseh could usually read right through stokeley but right now he couldn't. stokeley finally nodded and stood up abruptly, making the chair screech behind him loudly. he removed his hand from under jahsehs and grabbed their trash off of the table.

"i'm gonna go take a shower" he mumbled and turned away before jahseh could even reply. jahseh pursed his lips and placed his hands in his lap, playing with his fingers. one minute stokeley is happy and then the next minute he's mad. jahseh tries his hardest not to make stokeley mad, knowing that the both of them have bad anger issues, even though jahsehs anger issues are way worse than stokeleys. an argument between the two would not end very well.

jahseh was shaken out of his thoughts when he felt something vibrate in his shorts. he frowned and fished his phone out of his pocket. he turned it on and looked at the lockscreen with his eye brows furrowed.
