Spring Breakers

∆°Oh La La°∆

Huh? Excuse me?

"Your who?".

"I'm LoverBoy637". He repeated.

"I don't know what your talking about". I said playing dumb.

"Really? Ok. Do you have your phone on you?". He folded his arms, standing up straight in front of me.

"No. It's in Angel's room on the floor somewhere". I huffed.

"Fine. Let's go get it and I'll prove to you I am who I say I am".

Now I know your asking. How the hell don't I know what LoverBoy637 looks like? Well for one thing he had no profile picture and for two I never actually asked for his real name. Very stupid I know.

"No. I don't wanna lose the game". I hopped off the counter stubbornly.

"Ok fine. I'll get it. Stubborn ass". He flicked my cheek.

He did talk a lot how he texted.

But he could've talked to Angel about my mystery boyfriend. I would like to believe my cousin doesn't air out my buisness to her friends but less face it, Angel can't hold water.

He left the bathroom silently closing the door behind him. I hopped on the counter again and stood against the wall so I wouldn't be seen.

I held my breath as the door opened. I didn't know if it was Houston or Jewel. Whoever it was closed the door behind them.

"Marlee? It's me Houston". He whispered causing me to let out the breath I was holding.

"Did you find my phone?". I hopped back off the counter and walking over to his voice.

"Yep. Now let's see if you believe me now". He whipped out his phone and began typing.

He sent the text and my phone immediately lit up.

He couldn't see it but my jaw was on the floor.

"I-I-why didn't you tell me you knew my cousin?". I slapped his arm.

"I thought it was a coincidence. Plus, you didn't tell me what part of Florida she was from". He reasoned.

I sat back on the counter not believing that the boy I had been talking to for three months was literally standing in front of me in my cousin's bathroom.

"What the fuck is going on in my house?!". I heard Aunt Jackie yell.

Fuck.

Quickly, I kissed Houston's cheek and got out of the bathroom because there was no telling what she would do to me once she saw me and Houston come out of the bathroom together.

"Angel! Where yo narrow behind at?!". She yelled walking through the the house cutting on all the lights.

Before she could make it to the hallway where Angel's room and bathroom were, I ran across the hall and jumped into Angel's bed, covering myself with a blanket.

"Angel?!". She burst into the room.

"Hi Aunt Jackie". I answered groggily, as if she had woken me.

"Awww my sweet niece. How you been baby?". She came over to me and hugged me, placing a kiss on my forehead.

"Good. I'm glad I could be here with you and Angel". I smiled crookedly.

"Well I'm glad to have you. I'mma let you get back to your sleep I know that jet lag is real". She stood up and left the room, turning off the lights.

Played.

She went through the house yelling at everyone she found. She finally found Angel jumbled up at the top of the pantry.

"Get all these damn kids out my house it's damn near three in the morning and y'all in here playing hide and seek like some damn nine year olds". Aunt Jackie yelled.

After everyone left, Angel got a speech and a lecture. After about thirty minutes she walked into the room giving me the side eye.

"Hey don't give me the side eye. Everybody knows its every man for themselves once the adults get home". I raised my hands in defense.

"Meh meh meh meh meh meh meh meh meh meh meh". She mocked me.

"Whatever Angel. Anyway, I had fun tonight". I smiled.

"I'm glad. Just imagine how much more fun you'll have once we actually go out". She smirked.

"Hm we'll see". I shrugged.

"So LoverBoy637? You gonna tell me who he is". She peeked over at me as she sat on her dresser.

"I don't know about that". I bit my lip.

How the fuck was I supposed to tell her my secret boyfriend was really one of her friends.

"I'll tell you my secret if you tell me yours".

"Spill".

"Ok but you can't tell anyone I ever told you about this". She pointed at me.

"Fine I won't tell". I swore.

"I have the biggest crush on Houston". She giggled like a school girl.

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. What the fuck am I supposed to do now?!?!?!

"Now LoverBoy637?". She peered over to me.

"Wait, you have a crush on Houston for real?". I narrowed my eyes at her.

Maybe she had seen me and him duck into the bathroom together and was just messing with me right now.

"Yep. I've had a thing for him since the beginning of the school year". She blushed.

I didn't even know what to say. How can my cousin have a crush on the guy that I've been secretly cyber dating?

"Are you gonna tell me about LoverBoy637 or not?". She folded her arms.

"He's a boy. From the Bronx". I lied.

"A hood nigga? Oh la la! I never took you for a girl that liked hood niggas". She squealed.

I rolled my eyes at her.

"So what's the plan for tomorrow?". I asked.

"Not sure. But I'm pretty sure I'm taking you to South Beach".

"South Beach?". I turned to her.

"Mhm. I might even invite the gang.".

Crap.
