Rain

All In Our Feelings.

ENJOY THIS CHAPPIE

I arrived at the carnival with C.J, lets just say I told mama I was going to a friends house and I met C.J halfway either way, I was still there and that's all that matters. .

"Wow this is sweet" I exclaim looking around.

"Yup, it is" He agreed.

"There my friends go, lets go" He pointed to a direction of boys that looked around the same age as us and 2 girls. Shocking by surprise, he grabbed my hand walking me over there with him.

C.J dapped each one of the boys, they all turned to me for my attention as I turned to C.J waiting for him to introduce me.

"This is my . . girl Rain" I snapped my head at him furrowing my eyebrows together, everyone else looked shocked as well. Especially the 2 girls. The guys and C.J exchanged weird glances.

"Well Rain it's nice to meet you, I'm Lauren!" Lauren shook my hand. She was a pretty girl, long puffy curly weave, brown skinned complexion, and a gap in between her two big teeth.

"And I'm Paris. . the goodie goodie!" She joked. I laughed

All the boys gave me a simple head nod and I was fine with that.

"Lets go have some fun!" Paris cheered.

Paris and Laruen grabbed me by the arm dragging me across the grass. "Sooo. ." Laruen started.

"What?"

"Don't play stupid! What's up with you and C.J?" She questioned, being NOSEY.

"Nothing honestly, and I don't know why he said that"

"Well good, because C.J's no good...for you" Paris shook her head. No lie, I was disappointed in her answer because I did feel a spot for him.

"Why do you say that?" I question in wonder.

"Well 1st. off him and Lauren are about to date and 2. your not his type we've know him for almost 10 years" She rudely speaks in an arrogant voice.

I wanted to smack the light-skin off the bitches face. I know she did not just say that dumb ass shit to me, I thought

I give her a fake smile before turning around ready to walk away, "C.J. has a mind of his own, and it surely gonna date whoever the fuck he wants" I say, I stop myself once again "Oh, and Paris why'd he introduce me as his girlfriend?" I say before finally walking away from the girls back to C.J. who's face lit up when he saw me coming his way

"There goes my baby" He playfully sang Usher. I laughed "Ooh boy look atchu'" I sang along. We both erupt in laughter.

"So you like Lauren and Paris?" He asked. Hell no

"Eh, they're alright they just seem a little weird to me that's all." I half truthfully spoke. "But, school is in a few weeks and I really wanted to cut my hair a few inches how'd it look on me?" I question C.J, though he was a boy he'd tell me THE TRUTH not what I wanted to hear.

"I mean it depends how short you tryna' cut it?"

"A little below shoulder length" I answer. I was all natural and of now my hair was growing to almost waist length but for some reason I wanted a shorter look.

"Hmm" he puts his hand on his still-growing-sexy-ass mustache "Turn around" he demands. I give him a funny look, though I do what he said. I felt my bra strap pop, "OUCH! NIGGA DAMN" I almost smacked the living life out of him.

"No, don't cut it that short cut it right above where your bra starts that'll look nice, but don't cut it shorter than that or yo' ass gonna look like a damn monkey" He says half-serious. I laugh at his humor.

"Whateva' boy, wanna get on some rides?"

"I thought you'd never ask"

"Oh my god C.J. that was so fun!" I excitedly say eating my cotton candy as me and C.J. were 4 blocks away from my house. It was on 10:10, and before I left I was sure to tell mama I was going to a friends house and I'd be back by 11:00.

"I know you should've seen your face when we got on the roller coaster, you were terrified!" He teases

"Shut up no I wasn't.." I defend myself

"Whatever you say Rain"

"C.J. what's your real name?" i asked, we'd known each other for almost 3 months now and I still didn't know his real name. Weird, huh?

He looked at me for a second before speaking, "I was named after my father - Carter...but he was a huge drug lord and always was beating' on my mama. We finally got away and even though his ways had changed, when my mama told him they couldn't be with each other anymore he had a fit. But she always let me see him... and then he got this girlfriend, he got her pregnant and left me and my mama out on the streets to starve.. there was no was in hell i was gonna be called after his dead-beat ass name"

My mouth hung open feeling bad for him and slowly disgusting all that he'd said.

"Wow.. C.J I'm sorry."

"How about this," I speak. "I'll call you...Cing but with a C, it's cute and different" I smile at my creativeness.  I knew I was never going to call him that, though.

He let out a small chuckle. "Aight but ion' want nobody else calling me that but you."

I blush.

"Rain I've been thinking.. we've known each other for a while now and I'm not gonna lie and say I'm not growing a HUGE ASS crush on you .. because I am" C.J spoke.. I was amused with his words. So he felt the same way too?

"I mean C.J I feel the same but lets not move to fast - I wanna take it slow so neither of us end up getting hurt. Lets just be friends with extra extra benefits right now and see how it plays out to be" I spoke 100% honestly, after was Paris told me I wasn't really believing that C.J was about to date Lauren but I  wanted to be sure.

"That's cool ma' I'm cool wit' that"

I smile looking up I didn't realize we were at my house. "Welpp.. I'm at home thanks so much C.J i really enjoyed myself tonight" This was like a scene from one of those high school movies.

He smiles exposing his white teeth "Me too.. Goodnight beautiful"
