DARION
It had been a couple days since that incident with Cyrus and well he hadn't been seen since yesterday when he stormed off from practice, I guess a video leaked out of his girlfriend sucking some dudes dick and once the dude in the video busted in her mouth, she got out his car walked over to Cyrus who was coming out of the school and kissed him. To make matters worse another video was going around of the same dude fucking Cyrus's sister in his room and the dude busted on his pillow. How did I know it was Cyrus's room?........ no comment. Did I feel sorry for the dude? Nope Cyrus had a big ass mouth and was always fucking with somebody but I can honestly say I had absolutely nothing to do with either video getting out, nor was I involved in any way,shape or form. I just wished Odion hadn't got suspended, I really didn't like the idea of him being at home alone and he keeps blacking out at random times, I tried to stay home with him but my dads wasn't having it the pushed education above all us so I was stuck here while Odion was doing who knows what. As I walked through the hall with my other best friend who just so happened to be my big cousin Marquise, all everyone was talking about was the video.
"You are a sick ass dude Darion you know that right?" Marquise asked laughing but I didn't know what he was talking about; Ace, Alex and JD all started laughing when I walked down the hall and all I could do was smirk until she walked into my line of sight. There was something about Danielle that always made me freeze up and I lost all the charm and wit I had and reverted back to that little kid who had trouble breathing. As she passed me, she smiled and walked over to Alex who just so happened to be her best friend and I came back to reality. I knew how my big cousin felt about her so I wouldn't go there no matter how much my heart begged me to just ask her out, I couldn't.
"My bad Marquise what were you saying?" I asked turning my attention back to my cousin.
"I was saying that I heard Cyrus doesn't want to come back to school and........... oh fuck." Marquise said and I knew by the tone of his voice exactly who he saw. Ivanna Gonzalez, 5'3 inches of pure bitch (I can say that because I'm her cousin) but Ivanna was literally the most spoil person in our family, whatever she want she got from everyone.
"You working today? Don't answer that I already know you are so I'm going to ride with you because I need to talk to Saint about my album." Ivanna said.
"But you can't sing....... at all. The sound of your voice is like two cats hate fuckin in a sack full of weasels that got tossed into a wood-chipper." Ace said popping up outta nowhere and I had to admit he had a point, The choir teacher gave her an 'A' under the condition that she didn't show up to class because her voice was so bad.
"You better be lucky you have basketball or you'd be the one taking me Lorenzo." She said rolling her eyes. "Don't keep me waiting Darion." She said walking off.
"Would you be mad if I pushed her down a flight of stairs?" I asked turning to Ace, who shook his head. "My thing is Saint told her flat out that she wasn't getting a record so why would she......." Then it hit me and I realized she wasn't going to see Saint at all.
"What are you planning? You got that look in your eye." Ace said smirking and I just smiled, if I played this right I could finally put Ivanna in her place and I specialized in bringing people back down to earth........
I had been working for my cousin Toussaint for about three years now, I guess I develop my love for music from my dad but I was more interested in the business aspect more than anything. I sat in Saint's office while he listened to the album his protege Armani had just finished but I was more focused on the fact that Armani and Ivanna kept staring at each other very subtly, yeah they were definitely fucking around.
"Darion what did you think of this album?" Saint asked and I just shrugged. "Will for me given the choice between listening to this again and fucking a hornet's nest raw, I'm definitely going for the hornet's nest. Armani you're better than this, what happened to the little dude that used to rap about shyt that actually mattered? I'm pissed Yuri actually allowed you to bring this shyt to me, I mean what was he thinking?" Saint asked and Armani shrugged.
"This is the type of music people like, it doesn't have to sound good it just has to sell isn't that what you taught me Saint." Armani asked and I could see who pissed Saint was getting, he's been like that since Mario left like six months ago to 'clear his head'.
"Darion, you can cut out for the rest of the day......" Saint said and I quickly gathered my stuff and looked at Ivanna, I really didn't want her getting back in my car but I knew my Uncle Enzo would trip if I didn't get his princess home safely. Once we were heading to Ivanna's house I just had to ask something that had been on my mind most of the day.
"How long have you and Armani been fucking?" I asked and Ivanna started stuttering. "Don't play me like I'm stupid, if me and Saint hadn't been in there I'm certain he probably would've tried to fuck you. So I'm going to ask does Uncle Enzo know because I'm sure he would love to know his baby girl is out here fucking with Armani the biggest slut in Texas, don't this nigga got four kids and he's only nineteen?" I asked.
"Darion you can't say anything please......" Ivanna said and this was my favorite part of blackmail, the negotiations.
"Aight I'll keep my mouth shut for now, but you gotta lay off of Ace you stressin my boy out for no damn reason and this is just the first thing I want I'll have a list ready for you tomorrow." I said as we pulled into her driveway, Ivanna got out pissed but I didn't care she was too damn stuck up and she had to learn you couldn't go around treating people like shyt. I pulled off and headed over to Alex's house to grab Odion's homework, when I got there him and Danielle were standing out front talking and I couldn't help but feel a little jealous......
"Ayy Darion I thought you weren't getting off until later." Alex said but I couldn't help but notice how hard Dani was staring at me. "Darion?" Alex said waving his hand in front of my face.
"My bad where's Odion's homework?" I asked and he pointed to the house; I walked inside, talked to my aunt for a couple minutes before grabbing the folder with Odion's homework and walking back to the door.
"Tell AJ to come clean this damn living room up, everything in here is his and I'm not cleaning up after no man besides the one I'm fuc......" Nope, I thought quickly walking.
"Alex your mom said go clean the living room, I'll catch y'all later....." I said walking to my car.
"Darion hold up....." Dani said running to catch up to me and I had to hold my breath because she smelled so damn good I just wanted to push her up against my car and fuc..... nah I couldn't go there. "That video was childish as fuck....." She said smirking.
"What makes you think it was me?" I asked taking a step back because she was standing to close for me not to just start kissing her and I could tell by the look in her eyes it was exactly what she wanted me to do.
"Because I recognize your dick...... it's been ingrained in my memory since that night, not to many dudes have three legs." She said and I knew exactly what night she was talking about, there was this party and I was a little drunk and things between us almost got NSFW.
"Look Dani I can't go there with you...... Alex has been in love with you since y'all were kids, I would never do that to him. No matter what I'm feeling for you and I am feeling something for you, I have been since I met you." I said quietly.
"That's all I needed to hear...." She said trying to kiss me.
"I can't....." I said getting in my car and speeding off, my reasoning behind it is simple; I know Alex better than most people and I knew how he felt and how he'd react if he found out about how I felt about Danielle, he could hold a grudge like no other person in our family except maybe Cori and Uncle Marcus. I got home and went looking for Odion expecting him to be in his room but he wasn't after looking I found him in the backyard holding an axe, what the fuck was he doing?
"Odi?" I asked as he swung the ax cutting the head off a snake, then he turned to me and his eyes were unfocused..... I didn't recognize this dude just like when he attacked Cyrus this was a completely different person, I put my hands up slowly and started walking towards him. "Odion put the ax down...... it's going to be alright." I said quietly.
"I had to kill the dragon......" He said not sounding like himself at all. I slowly grabbed the ax and for a split second I thought he wasn't going to let it go but he finally let me take it from him. "When did you get here Dari?" Odion asked and I realized my brother was back. "Damn it happened again didn't it?" He asked.
"Yeah you were talking about killing dragons and shyt." I said looking in his eyes, which started to tear up.
"Bro what's wrong with me?" Odion said breaking down which caught me off guard because Odion NEVER cried. "Dari I need help bro......" Odion said as I pulled him into my arms and hugged him.
"It's coo Odion, I'm not going anywhere..... I never will." I said as he cried. I knew I couldn't keep this secret for too much longer, I was worried about my brother and with everything that was going on it was only a matter of time before he had a complete mental breakdown..............................
