Raya's POV

Summer

Week 2

"Okay, you ready?" Mavis asked straightening out the papers in front of her.

"Yes" I nodded, Mavis and I have become closer, it's safe to say that we're good friends. Since I told her about the receptionist job we've been helping each other with resumes and shit like that.

"Why should we hire you?" She asked.

"Ah, the real question is, why should I let you hire me?" I raised a brow and she laughed.

"No you can't quote tweets in an interview, be serious Raya" she smiled.

"We should be doing this for you, I'm applying for a job at a gym, you. You're going to work in an office with papers and desks" I slid the papers in front of her over to me.

I cleared my throat before reading the question. "Out of all of the other candidates, why should we hire you?"

"I am very determined-"

"Ethan you bitch!" We heard a loud thump come from one of the rooms before Ethan ran out into the living room with a huge smile on his face.

Grayson came running behind him, his face red in anger.

Ethan jumped over the couch pulling me in front of him as he laughed. Grayson saw the couch so he stopped running but his socks caused him to slip and fall making the rest of us laugh loudly.

Mavis went over to Grayson obviously trying to suppress her laughter. "You okay?"

"I'll be okay when I get Ethan!" He jumped up over the couch lunging at Ethan but Ethan kept me in-front of him still laughing.

"Don't include me in this!" I pulled away from Ethan before he ran over to Mavis putting his arm around her neck loosely.

"Come any closer and your girl gets it" he playfully threatened.

"Ethan let her go" Grayson said lowly.

"Why should I-" he got cut off when Mavis elbowed him in the gut making him groan and let go of her.

"Oh your gonna get it now too" Ethan said before she ran over to me hiding behind me.

"I'm not a human shield!" I yelled pushing Ethan who was trying to get me.

He picked me up before trying to fight off Grayson.

Mavis's POV

Knocking was heard from the door and I announced I was getting it but no one noticed because they were to busy fighting to the death.

I walked over to the door laughing at how ridiculous they looked. When I saw who was at the door my laughing came to a halt but my smile stayed.

"Jeff, what are you doing here?" I asked glancing down at his bag before looking up at him.

"What I cant come visit my best friend?" He asked holding his arms out for a hug as I hugged him tightly, I had missed him.

"Who's at the- Jeff" Grayson came up behind me putting a hand on my hip.

"Grayson" Jeff nodded at him.

We stood in the doorway awkwardly before I spoke.

"Come in!" I pushed Grayson back opening the door wider so he could enter.

Jeff walked inside with gray and I following him.

"What are you doing here, man?" Ethan asked Jeff with a huge smile pulling Jeff in for a hug.

"Just came to visit Mavis, I've been missing my favorite girl" he smiled at me and I smiled back. I could sense Grayson's anger so I pulled him into the kitchen after announcing that I was getting snacks.

"What is he doing here?" Grayson asked we were completely alone.

"He just came to visit Gray" I know how he feels about Jeff but it's my best friend I can't send him home after he flew all this way.

"Cool, he can stay in a hotel" he scoffed crossing his arms over his chest.

"Hotels are expensive Grayson" I said as I took out a box of microwaveable popcorn.

"I don't care Mavis I don't want him here. " he scoffed.

"Don't you trust me?" I glared at him, I probably shouldn't be getting mad but I am.

"Baby, of course I trust you it's him I don't trust him" Grayson scoffed crossing his arms over his chest.

"You are unbelievable Grayson, can you not start right now please" I turned my attention back to the microwave typing in the amount of time the popcorn needed.

"I'm unbelievable?" He said loudly but lowered his voice. "Mavis he is in love you, how do you think that makes me feel?"

I stared at the microwave trying to find a good response. "Like shit" I mumbled. "But don't worry it's not like we kissed while you were a five hour plane ride away"

Once the words left my mouth I regretted them but there was no turning back now.

He scoffed, "wow okay, take us back there"

With that he stormed out of the kitchen, a few seconds later I heard the front slam.

Jeff's POV

The next day...

I knocked on the wooden forcefully before impatiently waiting an answer. I noticed a piece of tape on the door a piece of ripped orange paper under it. Guess she didn't lie about the eviction notice.

A few seconds later the door opened revealing Rachelle, she looked different.

Her hair was shorter and their were bags under her eyes.

"..you came" she looked shocked.

"I wanna see the kid" I said bluntly, after she called me I couldn't shake the thought of having a kid. When I was younger I had a scare like this with a girl named Cassie but it turned out it wasn't mine.

"I thought I was a manipulative bitch" she said, her words laced with venom.

"Just let me see her Rachelle, I didn't come for you" I rolled my eyes and she stepped aside letting me in.

Inside her apartment was warm, it was small and cozy. It was well decorated and furnished, there were a few toys here and there but it was pretty neat.

"Rosa!" Rachelle called out crossing her arms over her chest. I heard shuffling then a few moments later a little girl came out of the small hall.

"Sí mami" She said combing the hair of the doll in her hand. I stared at her trying to find a resemblance between me and her but she looked just like Rachelle.

"Rosa, I want you to meet Jeff" Rachelle squatted down gently pushing Rosa towards me.

Rosa looked nervous l but held out her hand for me as she hugged the doll to her chest with one hand.

"Hi I'm Rosalina" she said in a small voice.

"I'm Jeff, who do you have there?" I shook her hand before pointing at the doll.

"This is Taylor she's a model" Rosa looked down at the doll stroking her hair.

"Is that what you wanna be when you grow up?" I asked. She shook her head no, "what do you wanna be?"

"A race car driver" she finally looked up at me.

"Really? I work fixing cars" I nodded and her eyes lit up in excitement.

"Really!?" She asked with a little gasp. I looked up at Rachelle who was staring at us with a little smile.
