Alexa: Life is a bitch.
About a minute later, he responded.
Carter: Okay? Would you like to explain why?
Alexa: Yess. Yes I would. The store was full of customers today. My ears were filled with complaints today. Somebody asked me why we didn't sell frickin' condoms.
Carter: Does that make life a bitch?
Alexa: If it doesn't, I don't know what does.
Carter: Is life a bitch when your best friend found you a place to live?
I couldn't believe my eyes.
Alexa: Spill.
Carter: Well, I know people.
Alexa: People who give people apartments?
Carter: Basically.
Alexa: What's the catch?
Carter: Catch? What catch?
Alexa: These things always have a catch.
Carter: No they don't.
Alexa: Yes, they do.
Carter: Fine. The catch is that I have to live there to. The buyer is the tenant. The tenant lives there.
I dropped my phone, and sat there paralyzed for a minute.
I have to live there to. I have to live there to. I have to live there to. I kept on repeating those words in my head. Carter and I? Living together?
I picked up my phone.
Alexa: You can't be serious.
Carter: But I am. The guy needs an answer in two days. It's either you take it or you don't.
I have to live there too. My brain exploded and I died. Oh, if only that would happen.
Alexa: I need to think about it. I typed, but deleted it. Fine.
Carter: Okay. Start packing.
I exhaled. This was going to be one hell of a ride
☆☆☆
Alexa and Carter have been best friends since they were toddlers, with no benefits except for the benefit of friendship. But all that changes when they move in together. Feelings change. The temperature rises. Things get confusing...

The Guy Who Called Me An A-class Bitch
"Well, because she's an A-class bitch." He replied, casually, like calling random girls a bitch was nothing too unusual. Cass gasped. "How can you say that? Do you have any idea what she does to guys who call her a bitch, wait no, didn't you also do that to the guy who called you ugly?" "Well, in the restaurant she was screaming at the both of us actually, thereby creating a scene, which doesn't exactly give a good person vibe off her. And the answer to your second question will be: I'd like to see her try." He explained, looking at me with a look of pure disgust. "Shut up." I yelled, loud enough for him to hear. Who did this guy think he was? I paid for his, Okay, their fucking dinner at eleven P.M. The least he could do was be polite to me or just shut up entirely. "And if I choose not to?" He questioned, looking amused. He's as good as dead then. -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Jessica Walkers was just your everyday counsellor, nothing out of the blue. Her past...let's just not go into that.

Keep H.I.M |Dave East|Chris Brown|
"Bianca what the fuck was that?" David says to me as we walk inside his house. The whole car ride was silent, no one uttered a word and I don't know why. I hate silence. Silence allows the brain to think about a lot of shit over and over. He already had a lot of things replaying in his head. He probably thought about how to reply to my comments. He just had this whole conversation planned out already. "What was what?" I reply sitting down on the couch. I sigh of relief that I finally got a chance to take off my heels. "Y'all got something going on between y'all, don't y'all?" David replies standing up "I don't know what you're talking about" I unzip my jacket sitting it down beside me. I knew my nonchalantness would piss him off. "Bianca stop fucking playing with me" David spat back. He's not the type to raise his voice during an argument. You knew he was mad when he starts cursing at you and says your name all in the same sentence. "I'm not doing anything. I don't know what or who you're talking about David" I take out my phone and start to text Parish telling her how the event went. "You fucking Chris aren't you?" I just looked up at him making a stank face and then back down at my phone. "Hello? I'm talking to you" David stands in front of me. I wasn't in the mood to bicker back and forth with him right now. I could've just told him yes, but he didn't want to know the truth. He smacks my phone out of my hand. I look up at him "Are you fucking him?!" He yells at me and that took me off guard. "No!" I shout back at him. "Are we done yelling?" I ask calmly raising an eyebrow. "You think this shit funny?" He questions "Go home"Complete

I'm not even in my own room. 'k Zack this is all some fucked up dream' I reassured myself . 'or you got kidnapped by a psycho scientist who did experiments on your body for breaking his daughters heart' my paranoid conscious exclaims. I bring my red-painted nail hand up and slap myself hard across the face.

SMILE ✔︎
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021Complete
