"My ambition is attractive"
"My aggression isn't passive"
Amari Peters moves on for a fresh start
But what hides in the dark always comes to the light
Amari POV "He doesn't love you. You need to wake up" "Wake up Amari" "Amari, do you hear me?" "Wake up"
"Amari Peters wake uppppppp! I know you hear me with your raggedy ass. Why did you bail on us? You up here sleeping in your comfortable bed while I'm down there sleeping next to Jay on the floor. That bitch snore louder than a motherfucker and he kicked the shit outta my back. I was cold too, he took all the covers and left me shivering." I sit up in my bed listening to Rosko's dumb ass complain about how he should have slept on the couch instead of Lathan...Mosey. I don't know if it was a dream or reality but I think Mosey carried me up here. I cup my hand in my head, I felt a piercing headache. I shouldn't have drank that much. "Amari, did you hear me? Why are you zoning out so much today? Hangover?"
"Sorry, what did you say?"
"I said, has your dumb ass seen Lathan?" I think I did...
"No. Not today at least."
"Well okay then. Jay's downstairs making pancakes, come down when you're ready."
"Yeah, whatever." With that, Rosko left my room. I stood up and went to my window seat and I retrieved my journal from its hiding place and started jotting down my dream from last night. I decided to check my phone, instantly my heart thudded in my chest and my hands started to shake. Why the fuck do I have eight missed calls from Tyrek's cheating ass?

I don't understand, I don't even remember calling him. I look down see another text from an hour ago, this time it was from an unknown number.
"Text me when you get up" I unlocked my phone and texted the person. I rather text a stranger than Tyrek at the moment. The person texted back immediately.

I looked out my window and the only thing outside was...the apartment complex. The houses in my neighborhood weren't very private and you could look at peoples rooms, I chose not too though for obvious reasons. I undid the latch on my window and poked my head out and started looking around.
"Mari, over here." Directly in front of me was Lathan, Rosko wasn't kidding when he said Lathan lived next door.
"Hey Lathan, Rosko was looking for you earlier."
"What I tell you bout calling me that." I don't know why, but that sounds vaguely familiar.
"Okay Mosey, I have something to talk to you about. Do you have time now? We can talk over breakfast, Jay's cooking pancakes."
"Is that where that smoke is coming from?" Smoke? I took a whiff of the air around me and something was definitely burning."You still want me to come over Mari?" I was too busy looking at the smoke making its way into my room. "Mari?" Mosey said getting my attention. I looked up at him."You still want me to come over?"
"Yeah and please make it quick." With that I closed my window and bolted downstairs. When I got down stairs, I don't know if should panic or laugh. Rosko's dumb ass waving the smoke away with a kitchen towel and Jay's stupid ass is still making pancakes.
"Mari, just who I was looking for. Do you wanna try one of Jay's world famous pancakes?" Jay hands me a pancake on a plate that looks like its had its fair share of abuse.
"Jay I just hope that whoever falls for your dumbass know how to cook or better yet, get a dog to eat your failed attempts at cooking." Jay straight faced me. I heard a knock on the door and I knew exactly who it was.
"Hey Mosey, you wanna pancake?" I presented Mosey with the burnt pancake as I opened the door. He kissed his teeth at me.
"That pancake look like it got a disease and you didn't even bother to put any syrup on it. Who made this bullshit?" I was in tears with laughter, Jay stood up with the spatula in his hand and started cussing.
"I'M NOT COOKING SHIT FOR THIS HOUSEHOLD ANYMORE!"
"You doing us a favor." Rosko murmured under his breath. Jay sucked his teeth and went to the basement. "Lathan I'm glad you're here, I have a favor to ask of you." Mosey looked at Rosko. "Could you take Mari to school for me?"
"Sure I can do that, but don't you want help scraping the pancake off the ceiling." I looked up and there was a pancake on the roof, just like Mosey said. I laughed my ass off.
"Mari shut up and get ready for school." I kissed my teeth.
"Give me an hour"
1 hour later

^^Yes that is Amari Third person POV
As Amari came down the stairs, Mosey's eyes were full of lust and Rosko noticed. Rosko knew Mosey's intentions.
"Let's go" Amari picked up her backpack and went out the door and Mosey followed.
"I'll bring the car around" Mosey made his way next door to his house and brought his car out to the front of the house. The doors opened by themselves and Amari got in.
"Ready?" After Amari fastened her seatbelt she nodded her head. As they were driving Mosey turned to Amari.
