Soul Ties

Chapter 29

Leeyah

When we got home, we chilled with the crew for a while before I was ready to go. I had a surprise for him and I hope he likes it! Chris always tryna surprise me with some shit now it was my turn.

We headed out to the surprise and Chris kept asking questions. "Leelee, you not gon tell me where we going?" He turned giving me his full attention. "I'm serious babe, you know I hate surprises!"

"Nope!" I smiled at him. We pulled up and Chris' face read confusion.

"Leelee wh-"

"Just come inside and see!" I told him before hopping out my truck. I walked in with Chris on my trail.

"You must be Leeyah.." The man said to me. I'd talked with him over the phone before while making an appointment.

"Yup that's me!" I told him.

"Right on time, my chair is ready for you.." I climbed in the chair and prepared to get my first tattoo. I was so nervous I could hardly contain myself. Chris had tons of tattoos but this would probably be my first and only. "What will it be today?"

"Well, this is my first tattoo so I just want something simple. I thought about it long and hard and I decided to get a letter."

"One letter?"

"Yeah, a C.." I looked up at Chris with a smile.

"Aye you got another tattoo artist in here? I want get one too." He asked the man.

"Let me guess, an L?" He chuckled. Was Chris serious right now? We were gonna get matching tattoos?

I wanted to get his name but that's stupid to me. Maybe one day when we're married but not now for sure!

Since I'd already decided to get the tattoo on the side next to my left boob, Chris got his there too. Two different artist tatted us up for what seemed like forever. I don't see how Chris has so many tattoos, this shit hurt.

At the end, it was worth it. I loved our matching tattoos.

"We got the matching tattoos, guess what's next?" Chris asked once we got in the car.

"What?"

"Matching last names!" I just blushed hard as fuck. Yeah it was corny but I thought it was cute.

Santana

Since I met that chick Erin, I been on some chill shit. When she wasn't going at a nigga head, she was actually cool. 

"Whatcha feel like eating ma?" We'd just came back from bowling and I was hungry as shit. Neither of us really wanted to eat what was at the bowling alley so we waited.

"Uh, how about we go to my place and watch some movies? We can order a pizza and just chill.." She suggested.

"I see what you tryna do!" I told her. "You just tryna get a nigga alone but its cool!" I laughed.

"Boy sit down somewhere!" She laughed.

I wasn't tryna start no shit but she was cool to be around, for now anyways..

Carmen

Today was the last day to practice the dance for the first basketball game of the season. The boys were ready and so were we. We were all gonna kill it tonight.

All the girls were doing good especially Leeyah. She was doing too much for me, seriously. This dance was nice but it didn't have all that in it so she needed to stop.

"Uh Leeyah, what are you doing?" I asked.

"Uh dancing.." She answered smartly. "What does it look like I'm doing Carmen?"

"Well, it looks like you're doing too damn much!" She just looked at me and laughed.

"If you say so.."

They rest of the practice went by great, besides her doing little shit to bug me. Once we were done, I saw her and one of the guys off the basketball team walking together.

"Its still itching?" He asked her.

"Yeah and it's starting to peal a lot!" She told him.

"Lemme see.." She lifted her shirt and showed him her tattoo. It was C in cursive with some type of designs around it. He then lifted his shirt, showing off his beautiful body and a new tattoo that was an L in cursive. Was that her boyfriend? Had to be.

The little bitch wanna try to be better than me, I'll show her.

Michael

Tonight was the first game of the season but I wasn't too stressed about that. I honestly wasn't stressed about nothing. I was basically living the american dream. I had all my friend and my girl at the same time. There was no confusion, fighting, none of that. Everything was just always chill all the time.

Speaking of my girl, Maya wasn't laying next to me. I didn't feel like getting up so I just decided to call her. "Where you at girl?" I didn't even say hello.

"I'm in the kitchen, get ya lazy ass up!" I could hear her goofy ass from the room.

I made myself get up even though I really didn't feel like it. When I got to the kitchen was over the stove cooking something. "Whatcha cooking?"

"Just some mashed potatoes. I really wanted some so I made it, want some?"

"That don't just look like mashed potatoes you got over there.." Maya had all type of shit on her plate. "Is that Nutella on your pizza?"

"Yeah what's wrong with that?"

"That's weird as shit!" She put her head low like she was upset by something I said. "I didn't mean to up-" I couldn't even finish my sentence before she started crying.

"You think I'm fat don't you?" She cried. I tried to comfort her but she pushed me away. "I gain a little weight and now I'm fat? You people gonna go and get a skinny girl!"

What. The. Fuck.
