What's Really Hood

FIFTEEN

"Shut yo' peanut head ass up and open the damn door!" I yelled back with a smile on my face 

I love Michael, he's like my little brother. We're the same age but I'm older by like two weeks. We're really close and we have this brother sister bond that can never be broken, no matter what. Even if one of us fucks up, we'll be cracking jokes and cut each others ass like it's nothing.

"Calm down." He opened the door with a goofy grin on his face 

"Move, annoying." I laughed pushing past him 

I kicked my shoes off and walked into the living room "Who's here?" 

"Everyone." He answered closing both the wooden and screen door

"Where's Chyna?"

"Shower."

I sighed and plopped on the couch, watching what's already playing on the t.v. Michael walked over and changed it to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I looked at him annoyed but he ignored my glares.  

"We're going to Tyra's party right?" He asked keeping his eyes glued to the cartoon 

"Of course, she's been having these parties since we met her freshman year. This senior year party gonna be the biggest on yet." I said getting excited 

"Facts, its gonna be lit." Michael said also excited 

"What's gonna be lit?" Chris came into the living room, tucking a blunt behind his ears 

"Hey boo." I said as he sat next to me on the couch 

I immediately started playing in his curls 

"Wassup."

"Tyra's party Saturday." Michael replied with a huge grin on his face 

"Its gonna be so fun and live." I said giddy "You coming bae?"

I watched Chris and saw his face expression change completely. His posture change and he shrugged  me off of him. My hands dropped in my lap, I grew confused. 

"Don't you gotta tutor Trinity or something bro?"

"Trinity?" I repeated

"Nah I'm not going." He said coldly 

"But why no-"

"I got shit to do Kae. I'm not going to that damn party." He mumbled getting up and walking up the stairs  

I sighed in frustration, looking over at Michael for help. He just shrugged cluelessly and gave his undivided attention to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that came back from break. 

Chris 

"I'm out." I said racing down the stairs putting on my jacket and walking over to the front door 

"Aight Bro, see you later." Michael said calling over his shoulder 

He's a feen for some damn Ninja Turtles. I shook my head and slipped on my sneakers about to head out the door until I felt Kae pull me back. I sighed and closed the door, looking down at her because she so damn short.

"Chris can we talk?" She pleaded 

"Whats there to talk about?" I said plainly 

"Why'd you blow up on me like that Chris?"

"Listen, I gotta go Kae. See you later." I opened the wooden door up and pushed the screen door put jogging down the front steps 

I stuffed my hands in my coat pocket and started up the block. Being alone made me think. I hate thinking. I took the blunt from behind my ears and sparked up in the middle of the street. I took a long hit staring off into the sunset. The sun set early in the winter. 

"There's something about you baby and I swear that it drives me crazy I'm stuck on you baby." 

"Christopher?" 

I snapped my neck into the direction my name was called. It was Trinity shivering her ass off with envelopes in her hand. I guess she was checking the mail. She waved me over, hugging the envelopes close to her. I put out the blunt and tucked it behind my ears, jogging over to her house. 

"What's good ma?" 

"I'm not going crazy or anything but I could've sworn I heard you singing just now?" She stated more in a question with a smirk on her face

"First off, why you sound so surprised?" I said smiling at her

She laughed "I would have never guessed you to be a singer."

"Ouch." I said faked hurt putting my hand over my heart 

She laughed again tucking her hair behind her ears "So what song was it anyways? It sounds good."

"That's confidential." I said seriously 

She gave me the straightest face and rolled her eyes "Whateva." 

"Aight but look, I gotta hit the stu' so ima catch you later alright?"

"Yeah of course." She said nodding "Don't wanna stop your grind or anything."

I chuckled "Aight, later Trin." I said starting to walk

"Bye."  She called after me 

I stuffed my hands back into my pockets and continued up the block

"And I might need help, 'cause I can't think of nothing else you got me stuck on stupid, stuck on stupid for you. Look what you do to me."
