Chapter 16...

~That Night At Jenny's~

WILL POV—

"Damn, bro y'all need to get a room doing all of that." Brayden said, as Kani and I were making out.

"My bad bro." I said, wiping the lipgloss off my lips.

We've been at Jenny's for over an hour now and it was still no sign of Danny. I even texted him and he still didn't respond. Maybe, he was mad at me. Maybe, he was just busy or something. I don't know, but I hope I hear from him.

DANNY POV—

I was in my Uber on the way to Jenny's to confront Will. I coached myself on what I was going to say over ten times during the ride. I was ready to become my own person.

I arrived at Jenny's and walked inside. I saw Will sitting at a table with the bro's and his little girlfriend, Kani. I could've waited to have a private conversation instead.

"Fuck this, never mind." I said, opening the door back.

I was walking out, until I thought to myself. If I don't do this now, I would always be Will's little bitch. So, I walked back inside and headed towards their table. It was now or never.

I approached the table. "Hey!" I said with an attitude.

"Hey, bro where you been at? I've been texting you." Will said.

"Cut the shit Will!" I yelled.

Jenny's became silent as all eyes were on our table.

"Are you okay bro? Did I do something?" He asked, confused.

"You know what the fuck you did! You set me up that game. You just wanted to make yourself look good for this chick." I said, getting more pissed off.

"Chick?" Kani asked, offended.

"Yo, ain't nobody embarrassing you! I'm the only one that vouched for you. I'm the only one that even gave your ass an opportunity to shoot. It ain't my fault that your dumb ass missed." Will said, unbothered.

"You know I'm not a shooter, so you did set me up. You know what, fuck you and your bitch!"

"Now, it's one thing to be mad at me, but when you start disrespecting my girl, we got a problem." Will said, as he stood up.

"We been had a problem Will! Everybody thinks I'm your little fucking sidekick and I'm tired of it, and I'm tired of you." I said, starting to tear up.

"Danny listen-" I cut him off.

"No, you listen. I've been by your side for three years now, but when people see me they actually only see you. I live in your amazing shadow, but it's dark back there. I can't keep living like a side piece to you Will, so I'm done. I'm done being your best friend and I'm done being your bitch!" I yelled, holding back tears.

Before he could say anything back, I left. I called another Uber and went home. The whole ride I cried cause I just lost my best friend. He was the only person that gave me a chance when I first moved out here. Now, he was about to become a stranger.

But, I started to think. This is my chance to show people who Danny is. This is my introduction back into the world without the help of Will. I was jumping into the deep end to build my character. I just hope I could swim.
