In The Ring

chapter 4

Stokeley

It was the night before Omars fight. Honestly i was Hyped so fucking hyped. Georga's sister was watching the kids and Eli so i could go with Gazzy. God knows he hates when Omar fights and he has to sit there alone. I remember days when gazzy would go with Georga to my fights. I could only return the favour now. We were in LA for the weekend.

Everyone from the Gym was there to support him. It was like its own little family. I was excited to see Omar fight, i hadn't seen him fight for so long due to me having the kids. In LA alone.

We were currently in a club in Vegas. Everyone except Omar and Micheal were drinking. Micheal was gonna fight before Omar with another armature fighter.

Gazzy sat on Omars lap as we sat in the VIP area. Suie and Juice were talking to some girls at the bar, god knows how that lil dude even got in hes literaly 19. Micheal was with two other dudes talking at the other end of the club and Jah was on the dance floor alone. I watched him as he moved his hips. My eyes trained on his body. Watching his every move as his body jiggled in response.

"Stair any harder you might burn a hole in his ass" Omar said to me snapping me out my daze.

"Huh? Tssk, i wasnt looking at his ass" i protested. Trying to play it off

"Hmm, you aint ever been able to lie to me. Just go talk to him" Omar laughed.

"He aint gonna talk to me, hes just my trainer" i said putting my head down.

"Funny. You said that Georga wouldn't like you back that way either" Omar said. He was right. I had a crush on her for the longest before Omar helped me ask her out. Lame right.

"I aint even know how to talk to a dude" i said scratching my head.

"Bro, you dead ass just gotta dance with him or talk to him like you wpuld me or Gazzy. He'll catch the drift. Trust me." Omar said.

"I...i Dont know Purp, its been a while" i said scratching the back of my head trying to figure out how to go around this.

"Look Ski. Georga's gonna beat ya ass when you see her again, she wouldn't want you to be alone forever. She would want you to move on and be happy." Omar told me as he patted my back making me nod.

"You know what. Your right" i said downing my drink and getting up. Omar fussed over my durag and sent me on my way.

"Im proud of you big bro. Good luck" Omar said smiling his ass off.

I smoothed my clothes down and sighed, going to the bar, i ordered another Jack and Coke. Downing it in 2 gulps and taking a deep breath.

Ive only known Jahseh for like 2 months, i knew he was single, gay and he was my friend. I knew he was interested in finding someone to settle with and i ain't ever been in a relationship i didnt see going anywhere. Hell i only been in one relationship and she was the love of my life. 

If i tried to shoot my shot right now things could go bad. I could lose a friend but god damn, over the last two months ive found myself caring for Jahseh. Hes so closed off and quiet, hes intrigues me.

I found myself watching him all the time. Not just his body. I felt his energy. I felt a connection with him.
A

t first i thought it was his uncanny resemblance to Georga that i was attracted to. I was wrong.
