Prettymuch Gay

Chapter 34

Edwin Honoret

Today at school seemed a little extra terrible. Zion had to skip today to be with hoe ass Jenna and take her to her appointment. Fuck I swear she would be dead right now if she wasn't carrying Zion's baby. But thankfully I got my besties with me. Jerrick and Austin always seemed to be the best when I feel like my worst. "So your coming right?" Jerrick asks me while picking at his salad.

"Sure I mean I might be late but I will be there" I say while taking a sip of my Arizona. He has a track meet at Ridgeway after school. "Austin how bout you!" He asks Austin who has seemed a little distant. "I don't know... is Zion gunna be there" Austin says looking at me. Shit! Man I wish Zion would just let that shit go. He is still my best friend and I want to hang out with him.

"I won't bring him" I say frowning.

I figured he gotta girl pregnant, I can spend time with a dude he doesn't like. But for real, he should get over it by now. Like it's not like it meant anything for me. "Aight then I might come" Austin said while leaning back. I take a deep breath as I look out into the quad. I lowkey want a soda from the snack bar but I don't really wanna walk all the way over there.

"Hey you guys wanna come with me to get a soda" I ask standing up from the bench. "That's too far!!" Jerrick complains as he looks over to the snack bar. "I will go with you" Austin groans out and gets up with me. "I don't wanna be left alone!" Jerrick says as we both walk away. Me and Austin laugh a bit as we walk across the quad.

"So! You and Zion!" Austin says while looking at me dead in the eyes.

"I mean yea! He is my boyfriend" I say back. I love Austin but just not in the way he loves me. I mean he needs to get over me like ASAP. I don't like turning him down every time he brings up that day we had together. "I can't believe he got Jenna pregnant" Yea you and me both man. I mean I hate how he lied to me... and I have always told myself to know better then to fuck with a dude with a baby mamma.

But it's different! I love Zion and Zion loves me. We were broken up at the time so he didn't cheat. I just..... thought he would be smarter than that! "Zion still loves me though!" I say trying to laugh off that awkwardness. "Really? I bet he's with her right now" he says as we get in line. "Well I mean.... he is but it's necessary" I say a little ashamed.

"Wait! So you know and allow him to be with her" he asked out of disapproval.

"It's complicated Austin!"

"Doesn't seem the complicated to me! If he loved you he should worship you for even letting him talk to you"

"Okay but this is his kid! He wants to be there for it and I have to respect that!"

"I'm just saying! You don't deserve all this extra drama in a relationship that is supposed to make you happy! You don't deserve an added baby mamma"

I was just silent. Was he right? I mean I love Zion with all my heart! But I was always told to do better! That I deserve a man that only focuses on me. If I told my sister or even worse my parents about Zion and Jenna! They would be so disappointed in me. I stop thinking about it as I get to the front of the line. "I can I get a sprite" I ask putting 2 dollars on the table.

The guy slides over a sprite. I take it and me and Austin walk over back to our table. "Bout time!" Jerrick shouts as we both sit down. "You aren't even don't with your Arizona!" Austin says sitting down. "I just wasn't feeling it anymore" I said pushing away the half drunk can. "So guess who just came by asking about you!" Jerrick says getting a little serious.

"Who?" I ask

"Julian!"

"Who the hell is Julian!" I don't think any dude named Julian for here. "He just came from Elsie! I have first period with him!" Jerrick says getting all excited. "He was asking about me?" I say, so the hell is asking about me? They trynna fight or something? "Yea! You know the Asian kid that all the girls are just obsessed with!" He said.
