Today was my day off.

I decided to go to Tia Geny's house to hang out with Ruby and Abuelita.
Gazzy ran into the house to play with the twins.
Giovanni ran straight to the kitchen.
That boy stayed eating.

"Hey Ruby." I said as I pulled him into a hug.
He hugged me tight and buried his head in the crook of my neck. He hugged me like he'd never see me again. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"That cholo Hector, the one with the long hair. He claimed you then Oscar basically broke his jaw for it." Jamal blurted out.

I looked at him with my eyes wide.
Ruby turned to Jamal.
"Shut up." He said.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked.

Ruby sighed.

"Yesterday, hector announced he claimed you and Oscar told him to take it back." He said. "What's going on with you and Oscar anyways?"

"They're dating." Gio said as he ate some left over enchiladas.

"You're dating?" Ruby and Jamal yelled.

"No were just friends." I said as I sat down.
"Friends!" They yelled again.
"With Spooky." They yelled again at the same time.

"Stop doing that." I said frowning at them both.

"When and how did you become friends with freeridge's scariest gang banger?" Ruby asked sitting down next to me, Jamal sat on the other side.
They both stared at me waiting.

"Him and Cesar came in to Lolita's, then he saw me at the bus stop and offered me a ride home, now we're friends." I shrugged.

I told them about how he always shows up and gives me rides home.

Jamal gasped. "That's why Oscar punched hector." He said jumping up. "He claimed you himself."

"You're right!" Ruby yelled.

I rubbed my forehead. "Wrong." I looked at them both. "We're just friends"

"Spooky Diaz, the scariest person we know just picks up your baby brother from daycare and you think you two are just friends." Jamal said glaring at me.

"You've been claimed Mamita." Ruby said as he hugged me.

Suddenly Monse burst in.
"Oscar had Cesar jumped into Los Santos!" She yelled.

Ruby and Jamal gasped.
"Told you Cesar ain't shit." He said.

I smacked his arm. "Just because you're dating Oscar doesn't mean that Cesar ain't shit." Ruby said.
Jamal nodded.

"Wait you're dating Oscar?" Monse yelled.
"No." I said.
"Yes." Ruby, Gio and Jamal said at the same time I spoke. "He claimed her." Ruby said.

"What?" Monse said confused and staring at me.
"They're over reacting were just friends." I said.

Ruby told Monse everything I told them word for word. "You're not just friends." She said.
