Murder She Wrote

Nothing Like My Bestfriend

Lamonte POV

"LAMONTE!" My mom yelled from her room

I groaned and put my pillow over my head and she burst in my room

"Boy I know you heard me calling you, Ro is coming to stay so go downstairs and open the door. I know she is probably going to sleep with you so don't worry about making this bed up"

She pointed to Ro's bed in the far corner, I nodded my head and threw on my sweatpants and a t-shirt so I could head downstairs

When I got down to the last step, the door bell rang so I picked up the pace because I knew who it was

I opened the door and she looked up at me with her pale hazel eyes. My bestfriend looked so tired and pitiful

"Come here Ro-So" I pulled her inside, locked the door and gave her a tight hug

I knew she had no energy so I carried her and her stuff upstairs. Don't worry Ro is light and I play football so I'm pretty strong

I dropped her stuff on the floor as soon as we got to my room and I carried her to my bathroom. I sat her on the sink and kneeled down in front of her

"You ok?" I asked concerned

She cracked a little smirk "I will be.. Aren't I always?" We chuckled a bit

"Do you need anything?" I stood up

"yeah just a towel and wash cloth" she sighed

I exited the bathroom and I heard the shower start

I walked into my mom's room to get the things Ro needed

"Is she alright?" My mom asked me as she climbs into her bed

"Yeah she is just tired" I got a little sad because Ro's mom treats her like crap

"Ok well you 2 get some rest, you've got school in the morning. I'll get up and make you guys breakfast" she yawned

We said goodnight and I love you at the same time as she turned off her lamp and I headed to my room

I put Ro's towel on the sink and she put her hand out for me to place her wash cloth in her hand, and I did so.

I put Ro's book bag in the corner and climbed into bed just as she was coming out the bathroom

Ro POV

As Lammei walked out the bathroom I washed up and processed my lingering thoughts and got out the shower

I brushed my teeth, brushed my damp hair into a bun, moisturized my skin and put on my pajamas.

Just as I was coming out Lae was climbing into bed and I flicked the lights off and did the same

"Goodnight Ro-So" he kissed my forehead

"Goodnight Lammei" I snuggled into the crook of his neck and rubbed his back with my nails

"Why do you do that?" He whispered

"Do what?" I smiled at his curiosity

"All the 4 years I've known you, every time your thinking about something around me you rub your nails up and down my back. It's not like I'm thinking about something its you, so why rub me?"

"Well I don't know, when I'm focused on something your always there so your the first person I touch and I know it won't weird you out because it calms your hyper self down" we giggled

"Shhhh" he muffled our laughs

"Ok can you rub my back please it's killing me?" I whispered

"Sure im not good at it but I'll try"

"Is this ok?" He questioned himself

"Yes it's perfect" I yawned

Eventually I driffed off but I still remember that back rub...... That was Jesus in disguise
