The Thin Line In Between

Chapter 13

LIYANA POV

Ever since I found out about Dallas and I, we have been closer than ever.

He can still be a grouch here and there, but we getting there.

"Get yo ass up Liyana and bring yo ass downstairs and wash these dishes!" My mama yelled.

I groan and get up.

As I make it in the kitchen I stop and gasp as my heart nearly stops..

Then it starts back up again.

"Ahhhhhhhhjskskshdhgf!!!" I yell and screech nonsense at the same time as I run up and hug the figure leaning on the counter.

"Hey lil broskie" my older brother says to me.

I pull back and let go of him.

"See this why I don't like yo ugly ass Marcel." I roll my eyes.

All of a sudden my lips sting.

I jerk away from my mama.

"Watch that mouth or I'll give you some worse" she threatens.

She just popped my lips.

The ghetto.

Marcel starts laughing his ass off too.

I roll my eyes.

"So what are you doing back?" I ask.

Marcel was overseas due to his job.

"I'm here for a couple weeks for holiday coming up, so you finna be stuck with me for a lil minute." He chuckles.

"Aw damn, BRING THE BOAT BACK!!" I yell.

"What did I tell you?!" Mama yells.

I start running.
——————————————————————————

I walk into the school and immediately see Dallas against his locker with his hoodie on.

I go over and try to sneak up on him.

But before I came a female cane and put her hand on his shoulder.

Oop.

I see him jump in shock and try to get away from her hand.

She doesn't take the hint.

I roll my eyes and head to him.

When I get there I yank her hand away from him.

"It looks like he doesn't want to be touched, so why keep doing it?" I say.

The girl scoffs and walks away.

"Goodness dumb bitches" I mumble.

"Thank you" I barely hear.

I put my hand to my ear and lean in," I'm sorry what was that?" I tease.

Dallas raises his head and look at me with those dark mysterious eyes.

I feel like I'm going to faint.

As I'm frozen, he takes his time to look at me.

His eyes look me up and down slowly.

I then start posing for him and twirling around.

Because shit if you gone stare I might as well put on a show.

Dallas looks surprised and he starts getting red.

I laugh.

"You good?" I say smiling.

He nods his head.
