Life As It Is

Fake Friends

Nicole

"Where you going sexy" Alex said wrapping his arms around my waist while I comb my hair. "To have lunch with a friend" I said. "Kadijah?" He asked. "Nope" I said. "Uhmm should I be worried?" He asked letting me go. I turned around and look him into his eyes. "Do you want to be worried?" I asked him. "No. I want to know who you going out with." He said. Is jealous? I asked my self. "Look babe there is nothing to be worried about. I'm just meeting him for lunch and then come home. Maybe 2 or 3 hours from now" I said. "So its a guy huh? He said folding his arms. "Yes and like I said nothing to be worried about." I said moving closer to him putting my arms around his neck. "Kiss me" I said. We kissed for about 2 mins until I pulled away. "Fine go have fun. Is he coming for you?" He asked. "No I'm taking a cab." I don't know if he wants guys coming here. "Can you drive?" He asked. "No." I said. "Well clear your schedule for tomorrow. You getting lessons" he said kissing me and walking away. Yaaayyy. Gonna learn to drive. The taxi service called said the cab was outside. I grab my purse and left.

Andrea POV

"Hey" I said hugging Nicole. "Wassup, been awhile" she said. "Yea and if I didn't ask to see you I probably wouldn't have" I said."well-" she started to say. "Well nothing" I said. "Andre don't be mad, I had school and work" she said. "I'm not mad ma, I understand just messing with you" I said. I could see her face lighten up. "Hope you don't mind but I ordered your food for you." I said. "Awww thank you." She said. The waitress brought our foods and we dig in. "You know I don't know much about you right?" She said. "And neither do I, like couldn't you tell me you was my boy girl?" I said. I was shocked that day when I was at king house and she showed up. "Yea about that. We just started dating. Not even a week yet." She said. "Oh ok. So how long you know him?" I asked. "A month. I was undergoing a little situation" she said. "Well that's good" "so I guess you are one of them?" She said. "One of them?" I asked a bit confused. "Yea, thug?" She said. "Oh." I said laughing. "Well yea" I added. "Oh ok, just be careful" she said. "Thanks ma. " I said. "So what's up with you? How you been" she asked. "Good. Got a baby on the way. Not ready yet though" I said truthfully. My girlfriend told me she was Pregnant a few days ago and she scared to tell anyone cause she don't wanna be judged Or nothing. But I hope she ain't thinking bout that abortion shit. "Why is she ashame having a child is like the best gift. Well that's what I heard." She said. "Well she's young" I said. "How old is she?" Nicole asked. "18" I said. And how old are you "21" I said. "Oh yea that's kinda young but it isn't the end of world. Are you excited?" She asked. "Hell yea I am. I'm suppose to be taking her to the doc to get the official test done. She should be here any min" I said. "Oh ok. Do I get to meet her?" She asked then added "or is she the bitchy type that don't want no girl around there man? " "I think she is insecure if that's what you meant by bitchy but you could meet her. She could use a friend like you. I don't like her other friends" I said truthfully. Those two other girls maybe jealous or whatever of her but its her friend so I'm not gonna break up a friendship because of my instincts. "Here she is, don't say nothing about the pregnancy" I whispered to her.
"Hi" Roselle said shyly. "Hey babe" I said standing giving her a hug. "This is Nicole, Nicole this is my girlfriend Roselle" I said introducing them. "I know her " said Roselle. "Oh you do? From where" Nicole asked. "Aren't you Stacey's cousin?" Roselle asked. "Oh yea! What's up?" Nicole said. "Nothing much holding on" Roselle replied. "Oh ok. Well I see you guys have already met" I said. "Yea but it wasn't official" Nicole said. "Are you ready babe?" Roselle asked. "Yea sure. Twas nice seeing Nicole. Don't be a ghost in my life" I said " I won't" she said laughing "nice to officially meet you roselle." She said then left.

Roselle POV

"How long you been friends with Nicole?" I asked. The last thing I need is someone taking Andre away from me. Only God can explain the love I have for him. "I don't know. Maybe a couple weeks I guess." Andre answered. "Hmm" I mumbled. "She is nothing more than a friend babe. I promise. I'd love if you become friends with her too, she is really nice" Andre said. "Well I'm friends with her cousin and she don't like her so that's not gonna happen" I said honestly. Stacey would kill me if she found out I was friends with her. I'm not about leave 5 years of friendship for something I'm not sure about. I'll never go against my girl wishes. "You know I don't like your friends. I just get a bad vibe from them especially stacey. By the way have you told them yet?" Andre asked referring to my pregnancy. "I just want to make sure first babe " I said.
