P.O.V.
Waking up, I had a fat ass headache. I walked to the kitchen to get me a glass of water and then back to my room to finish my blunt from last night. As I'm having my morning smoke, I think back to the last couple of days.
*flashback*
"What the fuck? Why would you knock her out?! You're supposed to be her sister." Alex yelled at me as I start to realize how hard I hit her.
"If she's bold enough to swing, she should have been prepared to go to sleep and that's all that I have to say." I said as I started to walk away.
"You think you're so tough. Ha. You think you're protecting her from all these secrets but you are worse than me." She retorted.
I turned back towards her direction.
"Bitch, Hitler his damn self wouldn't even be worse than you." I laughed.
"You won't be laughing when we're back together and you won't be able to come in between us anymore." She said.
"Anymore? Back together? You must have really lost it because last time I checked, it wasn't my fault that you cheated. Also, it's not my fault that your stank ass is eating for two now. So whenever you decide to mention that, she will see you for who you truly are. And trust, you wouldn't even be on her mind ever again." I smacked my lips and walked away towards my car.
"I'm not the only one with secrets that'll ruin a relationship with her and you know it. If I go down, so will you." She yelled after me.
"Yeah, yeah. I guess I'll see you in hell bitch." I said as I got into my car.
I know it wasn't right of me to leave my sis there but that bitch made me punch her. The nerve of her to step up to me like that. I don't understand why she was trying to protect that low life piece of shit. That really had me fired up. I need to smoke.
I pulled up to my friend Oscar house. We smoked for about 4 hours straight.
"Bro, is it cool if I crash here for a couple of days." I asked Oscar.
"Yeah, anything for you." He said with a smile. "What are you hiding from though?"
"I'm not hiding. I just need some vacation time away from everything." I said.
"Now we both know that my crib is far from looking like a vacation." He said laughing.
I swear that this boy is the world's most finest thing ever. With his grey eyes and wavy long brown hair that's braided. He's so built with his caramel tone and his teeth are perfectly white. He looks so edible. I could just-
"Hello? Dude are you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. I'm fine." I said as my pitch got higher. "It's just a little hot in here."
I walked in the kitchen to get some water.
"Sorry about that. Let me go turn the air on." Oscar said.
"Please and thank you Scar." I said while walking back into his room.
"There you go again with them ugly ass nicknames." He said walking back into the room while I spit out my water that I was drinking.
"What?" He asked in shock.
"What?! What do you mean what? I mean look at you. Why did you take your shirt off?" I questioned him while looking at his muscular torso. "Come here friend. We need to have this talk again."
"Okay?" He said in a questioning tone.
"How many times do I have to tell you? Stop wearing sweats around me unless you trying to get sucked. I don't need to see any bare skin so go cover them nipples." I said as I saw him laughing.
"You're funny as hell but alright." He said as he put on a shirt. "But I'm keeping on the pants."
"Okay, but I warned you." I said shaking my head.
"Dude, I can't even think about sex with anyone right now." He said.
"And why is that?" I asked.
"Because I got someone pregnant." He said while looking away from me.
"Wow. I did not see this coming." I said puzzled.
"You can't tell anyone. It's a messed up situation." He pleaded.
"Okay, I got you." I said as I lit up another blunt.
Me and Scar talked all night long about his problems and mines. Every time I try to be happy in life something comes and fucks it up. He doesn't even know her name. At least he helped me ease my mind about Jordan and Alex. I think I'm going to stay clear of both of them for a minute. It's too much shit happening at once.
*flashback ends*
I'm always the person that knows everything before everyone else. I guess it's because people like to confide in me.
*phone rings*
"Hey, did you talk to her yet?" Oscar said on the other end of the phone.
"No, not yet. Look, like I told you before, stop blowing up my shit up. I'll tell Jordan when I feel like it." I yelled through the phone as I hung up.
I love Jordan with all of my heart but some things I can't just lay on her. I know that if I tell her this secret, she'll never recover.
