Perception of Trust

E I G H T E E N

I ended up going shopping with Amina yesterday to buy something to wear for today. I told her all about Quincy and I's event and she was gassing us! So much that I was actually starting to feel like she was right. But I put myself back in check.

I was trying to stay asexual until the end of college so I could focus like I have been doing for years now.

I ended up inviting Quincy to the rink through text, but he never got back to me.

"You still riding with Rese?" Jay came to ask me.

"Yes! I told you that five times ago!" I snap at Jay's annoying assm

"Damn, so you're just gonna let me pull up by myself?"

"Yes. Now get out of my room little boy." I replied shooing her out my room as I began to get ready.

"Whatever." She said  rolling her eyes with a hint of attitude and closing my door behind her.

"Weird ass" I mumble to myself as I set my clothes out and grab my things before heading to the bathroom.

I took a little 20 mintue shower just freshen up. I knew I was going to be sweating tonight so I wanted to make sure I was as clean as possible before hand. I did a face scrub and deciede not to wear any makeup tonight. Finishing up in the restroom I heard Josephine on the phone talking at a whisper so I opened the door a little to try and figure out who she was talking to.

"Yeah, she's in the shower getting ready, but I don't think imma go... yeah.... for real man..."

I closed the door and rolled my eyes.

She was definitely going cause she had been pressed all day about the rink. Talking about she was going to push me in to the rink when they call for the fast skaters to go.

Not too long after freshening up I went to start getting dressed. I had just put my pants on when I got a call from Quincy. I picked it up a little too fast.

"Damn, you didn't even let it ring first." He laughed.

"I was playing a game on my phone and hit answer by accident." I lied, rolling my eyes.

"Mmhm." He hummed.

"Soooo, what do you want?" I ask

"Shit, my bad for bothering you," He laughed before continuing, " I got your text and just wanted to ask for the address."

"Oh, so that's your excuse for leaving me on read?"

"Nah, my excuse is that I was gonna try and pull up and make it seem like I bummed into you, but you didn't invite me with the address." He admits.

"Eww, you corny?" I ask.

"Hella yea, like some fritos!" He chuckled, causing me to bust out laughing.

" I'll send you the address asap once I hang up."

"Cool, I'll be expecting it, so don't curve me." He laughs.

"Never that" I say sarcastically, " are you coming with anyone?" I ask him.

"Nah, but if you want me to I can pick you up and come with your beautiful darkskin ass." He says with a whole lot of sexy in his voice.

I laughed to ease the tension I was feeling.

"If I didn't already have one of my friend taking my 'beautiful darkskin ass' to the rink I would have dropped my location. But if I leave him hanging he'll be tight all week." I chuckle.

There is a brief pause on the line before Quincy responds

"Oh...— it's all good. I get it." He says lowly.
