Adaeze

52

We'd been at the party for two hours. I wasn't sober but I wasn't wasted yet either.

Some of my teammates were here and Adaeze told Ife about it so she showed up too.

I saw Tristan sitting on the couch talking to some girl and Dylan was in the kitchen with a few people, drinking.
Adaeze and Ife were in there too but in a different spot.

I was with Marcus, Kj, Chris and Jaylen.

"I gotta take a leak." I said and finished the rest of my drink before putting the cup down.
I walked towards the stairs to find the bathroom.

One of the bedroom doors opened when I got up there and I looked.
Reagan came out.
We made eye contact.
I saw the guy that was coming out behind her.
I laughed and just went into the bathroom.

I kept snickering to myself like a weirdo.
That guy looked like an iguana.
I laughed while I pissed.
Realizing she just lets anybody hit.

Starting to feel like she's stalking me to be honest.

I finished up and went to wash my hands.

I looked in the mirror and fixed my hair a bit.

I wonder what Adaeze's doing.

I left the bathroom.
Reagan was standing there leaned against the wall.
Definitely stalking me.

"How long are you gonna keep acting childish every time you see me?" she asked me.
I ignored her and started walking towards the stairs.
She grabbed my wrist.
I snatched it back. "I told you to stop fucking touching me."
"I just want you to stop treating me like I'm your enemy. We could at least be friends..." she whined.
"Are you out of your fucking mind?" I scoffed. "Stop trying to talk to me. I'm not gonna fuck you so you're wasting your time."
I kept walking towards the stairs.

I went down them and found the guys.

I grabbed my cup and saw it was empty. Then grabbed a beer off the table.
I realized the group was one guy short from before.

"Where's Marcus?" I asked while I cracked it open.
Chris gestured past me and I looked.

I saw Marcus in the kitchen leaning against the wall and staring while he sipped his drink. At Adaeze.
She was oblivious because she was busy giggling with Ife.
I watched him get her attention and she turned around.
He started talking to her.

I walked over there while drinking my beer.

"A whole year?" he asked.
"Yea." she answered.

"You alright?" I asked and slid my arm around her waist.
She looked at me and smiled. "Hi..."
I snickered. "Hi..."
"You look so good..." her hand ran over my shirt. She was obviously tipsy.
I looked at Marcus and he was back to staring at Adaeze's ass.
My hand slid down and grabbed it.

He looked at me.
"What's up, bro?" I asked.
"What's good?" He sipped his drink. "That your girl?"
"Yea."
"She fine."
"I know. You alright?" I asked.
"I can't tell you your girl fine?" he scoffed. "Ass fat as fuck."
"Yo, are you fucking serious?" I asked and stepped up to him.
He chuckled, "Damn, bro. I ain't know it was that serious."
"That shit's not fucking funny, bitch."
"A'ight, now you takin' it too far with that 'bitch' shit." he said and stood up straighter.
"Then stop looking at my fuckin' girl, bitch."
"Koda..." I felt Adaeze had grabbed my wrist.
Me and Marcus kept glaring at each other.

"Ko..." I saw Dylan next to me.
Then looked around and noticed a lot of people staring at us.

I turned and saw Adaeze still holding onto my wrist.
"Listen to your friend before I embarrass you in front of your girl." Marcus threatened.
"Bro, are you-..." I walked back towards him but Dylan blocked my path. "Are you fucking serious?" I asked Marcus.
"Ko, chill out, man." Dylan stated.
"What you tryna do, Ko?! You're really gonna fight me over a bitch you just met? You serious?" Marcus laughed. "Fuckin' idiot."
I almost ran over Dylan just to swing into that asshole's jaw. I started pushing Dylan off of me.
"Stop the bullshit, pussy! You talk so much shit but can't beat my ass!" I told him. "You don't have anybody holding you back, bitch!"
"I don't have beef with you, bro." He laughed with his hands up. "You mad 'cause I said your girl fine."
"No, I'm mad cause of how you said that shit. Fuck you, bitch!"
"Marcus, shut the fuck up, dude." Jaylen told him.
I felt another hand pushing me back.
"Fuck did I do?" Marcus asked.
"Stop talkin' about her like she's a fuckin' prop! You knew that was gonna get a reaction out of him!" said Jaylen
"You doin' that shit on purpose. You know how he is." Chris responded.
Marcus sucked his teeth. "Bro's emotional. That ain't my problem." He walked off.
I pushed them off of me.

Everybody started talking again and drinking.

"You good?" Dylan asked.
I watched Marcus go into the backyard with the other half of the party. "Yea."
Jaylen and Chris pat me on my shoulder before walking off.

I looked down when my hand was grabbed and saw it was Adaeze's.
"Come here." she instructed.
She walked off and pulled me behind her. I followed her into the living room and she sat on the couch. I sat next to her.

She didn't say anything. She just held my hand.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing..." she responded.
She put her legs over my lap while we sat there.
"I just wanted to sit down with you." she told me.
I nodded.

Tristan came down the stairs. He saw me and Adaeze and started to walk over.

Dylan walked over with two beers. He passed me one.

"Where the hell have you been?" he asked Tristan.
"Koda told me to bring a condom. I did."
Me and Adaeze snickered.
"Everybody's gettin' laid but me. I'll be back." Dylan walked off.

Adaeze spoke up. "Is he-..."
"Yea. He'll be back in like twenty minutes." I answered and opened my beer.
