She throws a blanket and slides on her slippers. At her basement window was her dear friend, Oscar.
"Open the window" he mouths with a smile on his face.
Bria rolls her eyes before opening the window. "Oscar it's late."
"Get dressed, and lets go." He said
Bria rolls her eyes before reaching for a pair of jeans and shoes.

The two biked in silence as Oscar guided them to their location. A beach.
"Everything okay?" Bria questioned, placing her bike against the wooden fence. She takes off her sneakers and steps onto the sandy beach.
Oscar nods, "Yeah everything is fine." He takes a seat and pulls out a joint.
"Well," Bria takes a seat next to him, placing her shoes in front. "Something must be on your mind if we're at our escape spot."
"No fool, I just want to hang out with my friend before she leaves for a new school." Oscar lit the joint.
"My bad." She said. Bria looks out at the ocean. The thought that she'll be going to a new school in a couple days had her nerves going.
"You okay?"
Bria sighs, "I'm just a little nervous about starting this school." She answers. "Freeridge is one thing but Im going to a place filled with boujie people."
"You'll be fine." Oscar passes the joint to Bria. "Just let your work do the talking."
Bria looks at Oscar and smiles before taking a hit. "Imma miss you Oscar Diaz."
Oscar smirks, "yeah until you replace me with your boujie new friends."
"I couldn't replace you even if I want to...." She said, passing back the joint. "Fool."
The two laugh, bringing their bodies close together. The two lock eyes for a moment before Oscar presses his lips against hers.
Oscar pulls away, "Bria-"
Bria pulls Oscar back in for another kiss, catching him off guard.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Modern Day.
Bria stares at the waves. They've been sitting there in silence for no more then 10 minutes. "Just because you brought me here doesn't mean I'm gonna talk."
Oscar cracked the window then lit a cigarette. "We use to come here all the time." He said, exhaling the smoke.
"What do you want Oscar?" Bria asks, getting annoyed.
"I miss my friend."
Bria rolls her eyes, "I'll walk home." She said, opening the passenger door. The door slams shut and she starts her walk.
Oscar, annoyed, opens his door. "What's your fucking problem, Bria?"
Bria stops and turns around, "You're my fucking problem." She said, walking back towards him. "Do you not remember what you did, Spooky?"
"I didn't do shit to you, and you know it!"
"You didn't lie on me and tell your Santos friends that we fucked?!" Bria stood less than a foot from him. "Or was the block lying?"
Oscar's jaw tightens as he tosses his cigarette.
"That's exactly what the fuck I thought." Bria shakes her head. "I guess your reputation was more important than our friendship."
"Bria-"
Bria cuts him off, "Save it." She said before walking away.

"What do you think, Nic?" Bria asks, showing of her look.
"I can't believe you're going out with Leo."
Bria rolls her eyes as she turns back to the full length mirror. "Leo is cute and he's nothing like his best friend. He's different.
Nicole rolls her eyes, "He's probably like every other puto in freeridge." She said.
Bria shrugs, "We will see but I need to change my shoes. I'll text you later with details." She said, leaving Nicole's room.
"You better!"
Bria walks out of her friends house.
"I fought for you! I had your back!" Bria looks down the street to see her sister on top of Cesar. Her hands balled into fist while his arms protect himself. "For what for you to impress your Puto friends and humiliate me!"
Bria quickly made her way across the street, heading towards the Santos house.
"Hermanito, you better back your before you get smacked up." Oscar said, exhaling the cigarette smoke.
"Shut up Puto!" Monse yells, continuing to hit Cesar.
"Monse!" Bria yells, pulling her sister with away from Cesar. The Santos began to bark and whistle except for Oscar. He just looks at Bria taking a drag of his cigarette.
"This is why we didn't want to tell you." Ruby said.
"You're going crazy." Jamal adds.
"What's going on?!" Bria asks. "Monse why were you beating up Cesar?"
"Crazy?! I'm crazy" Monse said, ignoring her sisters question.
"Calm down, breathe." Ruby suggests.
"Don't patronize me!" She said, walking toward the sidewalk. "I don't need you. Any of you! I was trying to keep the crew together, but since I'm the only one who cares, you're all dead to me. I'll survive on my own. " Monse began walking away.
Bria sighs before looking at Cesar then at Jamal and Ruby. "What happened?"
"Nothing." Ruby says, disappointed at what took place.
Bria raises a brow, "Jamal?"
"Cesar said Monse let him smash really hard."
"Jamal!!"
Bria looks at Cesar then Oscar before shaking her head and heading home.
