Derrick + Miles (boyxboy)

FORTY TWO: PRIDE (A DEEPER LOVE), PT. 2

MILES

We finally made it to the D.C. Pride parade.

Derrick had to beg G and D to put the weed out. They didn't want to, but I know they didn't want to risk going to jail.

Damn it's over 15,00 people out here, maybe even more.

The floats are beautiful.

I've never seen anything like this before.

KRISTIAN: I TOLD YOU GUYS THIS WOULD BE AMAZING.

MILES: IT REALLY IS. THANKS FOR INVITING US ALL.

KRISTIAN: YOU'RE WELCOME. I WANTED YOU GUYS TO BE AROUND TO SEE THE BEAUTY THAT PRIDE CAN OFFER. IT'S MORE THAN WHAT YOU MAY SEE ON TV. I DON'T GET INVOLVED IN THE WHOLE SEX PARTY THING. IT'S NOT MY STYLE.

DERRICK: HOW MANY PRIDE PARADES HAVE YOU ATTENDED KRISTIAN?

KRISTIAN: SINCE I WAS 17. MY MOM TOOK ME TO MY FIRST PARADE. EVERY YEAR I ATTEND. I'VE BEEN TO THE ONES​ IN ATLANTA, NYC, AND LOS ANGELES.

ADRIAN: I WENT LAST YEAR. I HAD A BLAST. WE WENT TO THIS PARTY AND IT WAS CRAZY FUN.

SEAN: MUSIC AND ALCOHOL AND A LIL WEED WOULD DO ME SOME GOOD RIGHT ABOUT NOW.

DAMION: MINUS THE WEED I'M IN.

KELDRIC: SPEAKING OF PARTY, I MET THIS GIRL AND SHE INVITED ME AND MY FRIENDS TO A PARTY TONIGHT.

KRISTIAN: WHERE'S THE PARTY LOCATED?

KELDRIC: SOME PLACE CALLED DOVER LANE.

KRISTIAN: I KNOW WHERE THAT IS.

MILES: SO ARE WE GOING?

DERRICK: I'M ALL IN.

SEAN: YOU KNOW WHERE ME AND DAMION STAND.

TROY: WITH ALL I'VE BEEN THROUGH RECENTLY A NIGHT OUT IS WHAT I NEED.

KRISTIAN: I GUESS IT WOULD BE OK.

EVAN: I'M DOWN.

GARRETT: YOU ALREADY KNOW WHERE THERE'S A PARTY THERE'S G AND D.

DYLAN: YES SIR.

They clapped each other up.

ADRIAN: AS LONG AS THERE'S NO DRAMA OR SHOOTING I'M ALL IN. I'M JUST A LIL SHOOK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AT MY HALLOWEEN PARTY.

MILES: DON'T BE. MICAH IS NOT GOING TO BOTHER US AGAIN.

TROY: I HOPE NOT. I STILL HATE HOW KRISTIAN TOOK A BULLET OUT THAT SON OF A BITCH.

KRISTIAN: I KNOW HE'S A GRADE A ASSHOLE BUT I COULDN'T LET HIM DIE.

KELDRIC: I WOULD HAVE.

SEAN: FUCK MICAH. CAN WE PLEASE JUST WATCH THE PARADE.

DERRICK: AMEN.

Rainbow flags, Drag queens, strippers, Go-Go dancers, and activist everywhere.

After the parade was over, we decided to go back to the hotel and get ready for this party Keldric got us invited to.

For some odd reason I feel there's a girl involved. He's  up to something I can feel it.

I guess we'll find out shortly.
