Keep Your Head Up (Unedited)

Chapter 26

Brianna's P.O.V.

Saturday

I made breakfast for me and Scarlett. We sat down and ate.

" You still going to your friends party?" Scarlett asked me

" I don't know." I told her

I avoid school this past week. I couldn't stand to be around Carter. Not because I was hurt but rather do to the fact that I can't look at him without wanting to slap him.

I should have left him a long ass time ago. Never should have started dating him. Shidd I didn't even have a choice.

"You should go showing what he's missing. I know damn well you ain't gonna spend the rest of your senior year like this."

" Alright fine! Will you go with me?"

If I am going to that party, I'm not about to go alone.

" Yes I will! I got the perfect bikini for you too."

Scarlett dragged me to her room before I could even finish eating breakfast.

------

" I don't know about this Scarlett..." I.told her

I looked back at the full body mirror. I am in a teal, mint green type bikini that looks quite good against my chocolate brown skin tone.

The top had nothing more than a small triangle covering my nipples and some boob. The bottom let my ass be displayed to the whole world.

" You look great honestly. There will be girls there showing a whole hell of alot more."

Scarlett had the same bikini as me only hers is a coral color.

I slipped on some ripped short short, a white tank, and a mint green light weight cardigan. I slipped on my teal sandels.

Scarlett put on the same thing as me only a coral cardigan and coral sandels.

Scarlett put my hair into a bun, and I did the same for her.

I finally took out that weave so I'm back to showing my natural hair.

We got our totes and filled them up with some necessities.

I finshed eating my cold breakfast them we left for Aiden's house.

-------

Wow this party must be crazy. We a block away and I can here music, and it's hard finding a parking spot.

We parked near someone elses house grabbed our stuff and Aiden's gift and walked over to Aiden's house.

This party is insane. People grinding outside, smoking, etc. Turn down for what was blasting.

We entered the house, made our way to the crowd and to the backyard. People were in the pool, playing volleyball, or drinking.

I spotted Aiden and Dre mear Carter, Ant, and Jay. I tensed up.

Scarlett placed her hand on my shoulder.

" Relax baby girl. It's now or never, you can't run from him forever."

She's right...

We walked over to them

" Hey y'all." Scarlett said breaking the ice

Meand Carter's eyes met.

" Nice to see made it." Aiden said hugging me and Scarlett

" Didn't plan to miss it." I told Aiden forcing a smile" You have a place where we can put our stuff?"

" Yea I'll show it to you. " Dre said

Scarlett nudged me, and handede her stuff. Dre wrapped his arm over my shoulder and lead me back inside the house.

We went to an bedroom. Dre took out a key unlocking the door.

I looked around the room briefly.

" This is my room. You can just leave ya things here. No ones gonna take it."

I shock my head okay. I put me and Scarlett's bag on his bed.

I removed my cardigan and tank and layed them down on the bed.

" Damn..." Dre said bitting his lip " Carter let you wear that?"

" Me and Carter are no longer an item." I informed Dre

"He dropped a diamond." Dre said shaking his head " Come on let's go."

I followed Dre back outside.

" What happened between the two of you?" Dre said handing me a drink

" Disrespect was too much." I said. I drowned my drink, it burned my throat.

Me and Dre sat down and talked about random topics for the past couple hours. We had a couple more drinks. Not gonna lie I enjoy his company.

" Come on girl get ya lazy ass up. Let's dance."

"Alrrigghht." I told Dre slurring my words

He took my hand and lead me where everyone else was dancing. Red nose came on.

" You know how to Yike?"

I shock my head yes.

Dre placed his hand on my hips. I arched my back and started shaking it like a red nose.

All this money on me Like I'm taking from the a G All she tryna do is get naked, naked, naked

And she gon' shake it like a red nose Li-li-li-li-like a red nose And she gon' shake it like a red nose Like a, like a, like a red nose (x2)

Dre moved my hips closer. I grinded against his now hard meat.

That booty talkin' to me, what that shit say? Shake it for the dojo I'm the sensei Once you wobble, got my song on replay Almost got'er at house, up off Kingsway I told her shake it like a red nose pitbull

And I'mma keep throwing money 'til your bank full Cake-cake-cake-cake birthday suit Damn in a little I'mma forget your age soon

I was pulled away by a hard grip. It almost disconnected from my socket.

I looked up it was Carter, and boy the he is angry...

I sent an apologetic look Dre way before Carter dragged me off.

" Let me go!" I yelled at him

Carter continued to drag me until we were at his car. He pushed me inside. Carter got inside. I tried to open the door, child lock. Damn it!

" What the fuck is ya problem Brianna?!"

" MY problem! You tell me it's over, call me out my name. Yet you have the biggest problem with me trying to be happy!"

" Your mine baby girl! I'm sorry for what I said. Please come home."

" No." I said crossing my arms. I leaned back on his car seats

" Fuck you ho-"

I slapped Carter across his face.

" I'm sorry I didn't mean it. Please forgive me Brianna."

"You need help Carter. Go to church and pray that demon outta of you."

" Baby-"

" Open the damn door."

Carter unlocked the door

" I love you Brianna."

" Go to hell Carter." I said getting out of the car.
