"Be slow to fall into friendship & love, but when you are in, continue firm and constant."
Someone should've told Tray that.
Add my story to your reading list, later chapters involve mature themes & wattpad won't allow you to read them otherwise. 🤗...
"Question." Lifting my head from my pillow, to look at Chanel as she sat on the floor in front of me I nodded for her to speak.
"What's your favorite attribute of Tray?" Looks were shared between the girls and I. But I kept my composure, although very uncomfortable.
"Why... why are you-"
"I know the girls are close to Tray, but you're his best friend. You two were inseparable before I came around." She smirked to herself, tapping her pen against her chin.
You got that right..
"Uhm. I guess his smile." I shrugged, moving to lay back down.
"Why?" She continued, scribbling something down.
"Idk... it just.. makes him more attractive I guess? It just shows how happy he is?" I had a real & raw reply to her question but I'd never repeat it. Not even to him.
"Okay that's fair. And what would you say you like about him most?" Locking eyes with her, I looked away feeling sweat bead on my neck. This was so awkward.
"I-I'd say his ease to be happy?" Smiling Chanel stood, and thanked me.
"I'm writing an essay on people's opinions on others, such as acquaintances, classmates, coworkers, friends, lovers, family and best friends. It's for my entry exam." She smiled, before running to the next room.
"So she just go leave tray like dat, or is his dumb ass really going to run behind her?" Hearing carmen's think accent, I shrugged.
"Aye man. I told you bout dat, just mind yo gah damn bidness Maine."
"Shut up Corey! Dayum you always wanna act like somebody talking to you!" Pulling my blankets over my head, I tried to block they mini argument out. We came back Saturday and today was Thursday. I hadn't gotten any real sleep and this weekend that's all I planned on doing. It was April 20th and I couldn't wait until the calendar read June 12th. That was graduation day.
"Well. Nothing we can do about it, but I just hope Chris takes it well." Nique mumbled.
"Better than he has already? Yeah right." King snorted, before the room went silent. Tray broke the news to us Wednesday night, that he planned on leaving with Chanel to Minnesota. Chris blew up at him about it, left the group chat and hasn't spoken to hardly anyone since. Tray didn't even come with Chanel today. She came alone, both boys were just mopping. Tray was leaving with her this weekend, to take a tour of the campus. You could tell a lot was on his mind, but he wouldn't say what. But I of course would find out just what it was. ••• Friday Evening
Closing my physics textbook, I sighed as I packed all my finished homework away. I finished all my projects due for the semester and completed the recently assigned homework. Stretching my arms above my head, I went and got ready for bed.
