Chapter Three: The Gang's All Here!!

It was the day of Pj and Teagan's dinner party and leave it to Teagan to keep us all busy majority of the day but everything has finally been put together. When Pj walked into the kitchen with Callie decided to surprise her! Hey Teague look who decided to pop up said Pj. Teagan turns around to seen Callie standing in the kitchen. As she screams she quickly embraced her with a hug, Callie Why didn't call me when you touched down in "the ville". Callie quickly turns his attention to Pj then turned his attention to Gerald; It's great to be back home but I feel like it's not complete without my girl. As they continue there conversation in the kitchen there was a knock on the door. Pj went to open the door. Sorry were late bro said Bear as he closed the door we knew he was going to yell at them for being late. I knew this was gonna happen! Leave it to me to count on y'all Pj said furiously. Dame told him to calm down we're here speaking of being here where is Reagan is she here yet, I hope she wearing something to show off those curves said Dame Well she's in the kitchen with the girls why don't you go talk amongst each other said Pj; Dame pushed Yogi out of the way and darted towards the kitchen, and right into his baby mother Imani; Well, well, said Imani. Oh my lord, girl what you doing here In the first place huh, Teagan I thought your sister was here Dame said loudly. My sister Reagan is in Germany, and believe me you are not her type said Teagan; I just lost my appetite looking at you I see you still shopping in the little boy's department Imani said jokingly to him. See that's why I dread having a baby with your crazy behind said Dame; Oof that's how you really feel Diamanté! You was checking for me 7 years ago, you the one who took me to the coat closet to get hands on now I'm here stuck in a box raising your son while your bout here hoeing said Imani. He immediately looked her up,and down then proceeded to roast her in the kitchen.  Now I know your not talking about losing an appetite we both know you've had your fair share of a meal or three Bear said Imani; Dame and Imani high five each other in agreement, As I stepped in to change the subject Callie and I instantly locked eyes, Why don't all of you go into the living room, and get comfortable, while us men prepare the food said Bear. The guys went into the kitchen to prepare the food for the women. When the food was finished we brought it to the table to serve. Since Dame and Imani made majority of the food I feel like it's only right if they take the first bite of food said Bear, Imani rolled her eyes and asked "do I look like a guinea pig to you".
Yogi chuckled under his breath, and said "to easy". After Bear's fifteen minute prayer everyone passed around the food it felt great to have the gang back together it's been well overdue. A couple of hours passed I was about to head home I decided to make her final rounds then head out the door while I was making my way out the door Bear noticed Callie outside talking to Yogi.. So are you gonna tell him or do I have to myself said Yogi as she tried to get him to lower his voice for a minute until he passed by both of us. It was good to see you again Callie, I said as I passed by the both of them. As I walked pass her I know that she felt my eyes pierce the back of his neck. When I made it home I decided to get comfortable, I quickly changed into my black t-shirt, and sweat pants. I turned on some R&B music then went to my room to grab something out of the bathroom, when I made my way back to the living room I seen her standing in the middle of the living room. I asked her what took her so long, she sighed for a second then told me she had to ditch the crew. Callie told them she was gonna spend the night at her  mother's other than a hotel. Callie also told me I needed to check my attitude because it wasn't cute at all. I laughed then told him I always know how to have that effect on you, and it always works. We both started to draw close to each other. Callie told me she only had one question to ask me, I told her I was listening, and she asked me when am I gonna stop playing games, and make my move! I slowly kissed him on the lips, as he picked me up,and carried me off m to the bedroom. The whole night we've both felt like we reconnected I looked into his eyes, He slowly seen me let my guard down, and let him make love to me. The next morning I seen that he was still sleep I slowly got out of bed, and went into the kitchen to make us both some breakfast. I walked into the kitchen, and who do I see in my refrigerator. Ayo bro I see you had another sleepless night Said Yogi;  I stopped dead in my tracts then said Why! Why are you here??? Yogi told me he was looking for eggs, and bacon! Bear told Gerald he used the last pack of bacon early this week so he decided to unthaw some sausage instead. I told her she needed to raise up out of here! Gerald you needed to go to IHOP, Waffle House, or Mickey D's but you gotta get up outta here please! As Yogi looked me up,and down. You got some last night! I sighed and looked at the ground. Yogi laughed then told Bear it was well overdue he didn't know why I was wasting my time on Callie! This whole long distance hooking up is getting old! I feel like he needs to move on. So that's how you feel Yogi said Callie. Yogi slowly turned around, and said hey there we were just talking about you, it's great to see you. He decided to take my advice, and leave because the way Callie was looking at him Yogi may have to invest in some life insurance. After he rushed out of the house immediately. Bear laughed then apologize to Callie for his actions,  She told me it was ok. Callie walked into the kitchen, and wrapped his arms around me then kissed me. I asked her what was that for he told me it was for last night, and for having to leave early I have to sit down with Imani and Teagan we are trying to see if she and Pj are seriously going to put us through another vowel renewal then I have to meet with my parents for lunch downtown then be back on the road. She also told me she was getting tired of this long distance relationship so I asked me to move to Dallas with her?? I sat back, and thought about what she just asked him I told him that is a huge step for me to take. What if I don't find a job while I was down there, and I didn't need for her to take care of me it should be the other way around. We both looked at each other and laughed at that question but in all seriousness I will give it some thought and get back to you? As Callie walked towards the door he turned around and said there is a big piece of your life that's waiting for you in Dallas don't let all this time pass you by. Callie kissed me one last time then walked out the door.
