"Why you so close to me?" He mugged me through the mirror while we were brushing our teeth.
"You the one that's close to me, I was in here first you got all that room." I side eyed him and he was mugging the whole time he was brushing his teeth.
When we were done we went to the kitchen.
"What you got to eat?" I asked following him to the refrigerator and he opened it. When i say that refrigerator was stocked up...it was full as fuck for just two people let alone one.
"Damn that's a lot." I blurted.
"Chaos be gone for weeks sometime so he be having somebody grocery shop a bunch of extra shit to last me." He said.
"Let's just eat pancake and sausage on the stick, i would eat cereal but milk be doing something to my stomach and i'm not a home to be dramatic." I chuckled.
"Ight, he took out four pancake and sausage on the stick putting it in the microwave that was above the stove.
"You want syrup?" He took out two plates.
"I don't eat syrup." I mumbled messing with my hair.
"Fuck wrong wit' you?" He looked at me.
"My momma drenched my waffles in syrup before and it spread to my eggs bacon and sausage. I threw up because of it and ever since i don't like syrup and i don't like my food touching." I explained.
"Fuck? Weak ass stomach. I drench my shit in syrup all the time how old you was?" he opened the microwave.
"Six." I laughed.
"Hm." He passed my plate to me. "Thank you." i took it out the pack letting it sit so i won't burn my mouth.
"Apple juice, orange pineapple juice, or grape juice?" He asked.
"Welch's?" I asked and he nodded.
"Grape juice." I answered as he took out two juices from the refrigerator and sat down beside me to eat.
"You should get some ice and rub it under your eye." I suggested.
"Why?"
"Your eyes are puffy from crying."
"I don't care." He mumbled dipping his food in syrup. I nodded before eating my food as well when my phone lit up from a imessage notification but before i could look Skye grabbed my phone.
"Is it my momma?" I looked at him.
"Elijah wanna see you." He said while typing on my phone.
"What you doing?" I asked tryna see what he was typing.
"Nothing watch out." He moved away before pressing send. "I ain't text that nigga i sent yo' mama phone number to my phone." He gave my phone back.
"Why?" I chuckled.
"For letting you come here so late, she ain't have to but she did so." He said shyly texting on his phone causing me to smile.
Being around him made me realize how misjudged he actually was. Aside from him not having a filter, i thought wrong about him concerning a lot of stuff.
"I'm sorry for judging you and misreading you." I blurted.
"What you talkin' bout?" He asked.
"I was just thinking." I shrugged. "I honestly judged you in my head a lot when i shouldn't have and believed things that people said. You're just misunderstood." I drunk some of my juice.
"Everybody is." He said.
"Did you judge me?" I asked out of curiosity.
"No, I wasn't thinkin' bout you." He said dryly catching me off guard.. "That came out wrong, my bad i mean like, I just knew you as my homeboy sister so it wasn't nothing to think for real cause that's all i knew you for and i didn't know you at all." He elaborated.
"Oh...that makes sense."
"I just normally stay to myself so i won't get in trouble. I know my mouth smart so most of the time i just keep my thoughts to myself cause my mouth always get me in trouble whether it's fighting or talking like that to somebody wit' authority." He explained but i felt like it was another reason.
"You weren't allowed to speak your mind as a child were you?" I looked at him as he paused from dipping his food in syrup and blinked.
"Mm mm." He hummed as he shook his head continuing to eat. "Ion wanna talk about me no more wassup wit you?" He asked.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Stop acting like it ain't nothing bothering you Reign."
"I can't explain it, it's like before i went to highschool i was raised in a two parent household yet my mom was a single parent and now its worse cause they're actually separated and i don't see my dad unless he gets my nieces and nephew." I explain.
"Like yo' mama actually care for yall but he was just there financially? I remember you telling me something like that." He said.
"Yeah that's it." I sighed eating the second pancake and sausage on the stick just thinking about how messed up the situation is.
"Cause it's like we didn't ask to be here you had five kids with our mama and now since yall divorced and not living together you don't care to check up on us. Gifts and money is cool cause that's what he do all the time but i need my daddy." I sighed.
"My brothers fill in that spot for me every day and i love them for that but i just be thinking i don't know." I shrugged.
"Exactly like wit me i appreciate chaos but i need my parents type shit." He empathized. "But you and yo' people real family oriented so i could see how that made a big difference.
"Do you have anymore family out here, cousins?" I asked.
"Yeah...Dre my cousin." I answered. Thats the real reason why Chaos wanted me to check him bout the stuff he was doing.
"For real? I did t know y'all were related. Why you say it like that?" I asked.
"He part of the reason why i got arrested, He the one i was fighting." I said.
"WHAT?" I dragged.
"He kept sayin' some hatin' ass shit to me and i been peeping it but i kept letting him slide and chaos ended up picking up on the shit too and said some to me. That's why i be telling you sometimes family can be doing grimy ass shit too." He shrugged.
"I knew something was off about dre, he used to try too hard to go against teachers and be funny." I blurted.
"I wasn't fuckin' wit that shit either, don't get me wrong i get smart wit teachers too but that's only cause sometimes they really do be having me fucked up." He laughed.
"How?" I laughed.
"Like asking me why i'm late in front of the class, nit pickin' bout dumb shit, forcing me to work in groups, calling me out to answer a question just cause they think i'm not answering a question, eating, just dumb shit." He explained.
"Heavy on the calling me to answer a question." I agreed. "Then reading out loud like we in middle school." I added.
"On God." He agreed. "Like me and you both know what's on that paper and book fuck you want me to read for." He said.
"Right." I said.
"But one thing they can't say is that i don't do my work, i always got good grades they just think ion give a fuck cause that's how i act." He chuckled.
"I remember one of them days in English class you was just finishing the worksheet while the teacher was talking and took a nap when she told us to start on it. She swore up and down you aint do yo' work." I laughed.
"Cause." He shrugged. "She was talking too much—Damn did you even chew?" He cut himself off and looked at my plate then me.
"Did you even swallow?" I asked.
"Hell nah get back fool, you on that gay ass shit." He got up to throw our plates away while i laughed. "Aye, chaos said he used to date yo' auntie back in the day." He blurted.
"Wait is Chaos real name Casey?" I gasped and he nodded his head.
"Omg yesssss She told me about him. You know how grown folks now always got that one person they dated that they wished they could've still been with? That's how she described it." I said.
"He said the same shit."
"Damn what if we would've been cousins." I said.
"Ion wanna be yo' damn cousin, the fuck?" He mumbled.
"You don't wanna be my cousin, you don't wanna be my friend—We friends now you happy?" He cut me off.
"Yes." I smiled. "And as your friend i will make it mandatory to give you a hug whenever i see you, cause you need em'." I said.
"You shady as fuck." He shook his head cracking a smile trying not to laugh.
"C'mon pinky promise, we friends now so we need a promise to make." I held out my pinky.
"You do this wit' all yo' friends?" He asked.
"No im making an exception for you our friendship is different." I said and he sighed.
"No matter what we'll always be there for each other and won't leave the other lonely." I said and he locked his pinky with mine.
"You so childish." He mumbled.
