Chapter 5 #2
I frowned, wondering what exactly Will did when I wasn’t around. This nigga was acting like Will went around putting on about stuff. I never took Will as the lame type who had to lie, but what did I know? I never thought he was the type to fuck my cousin but here we were.
“Will here,” Tition’s tone came off as sneaky, and it had me cutting my eyes in his direction. I scoffed at him focusing my attention on the niggas under this shelter.
When I tell you everything in me wanted to disappear when I locked eyes with Niko.
I could hear my heart beating through my ears.
It was hammering so loud in my chest. Out of all the fucking people in this city, I had to run into Niko.
I wanted to vomit seeing a petite brown skinned female sitting in his lap.
Seeing they wore color coordinated outfits, wearing all white, had me ready to pour red kool-aid all over both of them.
Then Niko had the audacity to look at me like he was pissed as if I did something wrong.
Will grabbed me by the hand pulling me in front of him, and I felt all eyes on us. I refused to make eye contact with Niko, but I felt the heat from his stare.
“Bae, this my brother, Niko, his girl, Madison…” Will kept talking, but I had completely tuned him out after he said Niko was his brother.
This couldn’t have been my life right now. I fucked Will’s brother. I had to get the hell out of here. If this wasn’t a sign that Niko wasn’t it for me, I didn’t know what was. I was cutting ties with Niko, Will, and anyone else associated with their family.
I gave a fake hi to everyone as I planned my escape.
I assumed Niko’s little girlfriend didn’t realize who I was because she waved at me too.
I supposed she was cute, nothing special, brown skinned, black eyes, she had a pretty face.
I was no hater, but she wasn’t me, but whatever made that nigga happy I guess.
It was a chore to keep myself from not frowning.
I wanted to lay hands on Niko’s stupid ass.
Wearing the same colors as another bitch.
He had me fucked up, that was our fucking thing.
I needed to get out of here before I acted a fool.
“Will…” My heart started thumping hearing Niko call Will’s name with a sly undertone. My eyes went to Niko, who had a look of amusement on his face toward Will who was looking like a little kid happy he was finally fitting in.
“How long you and shorty been fuckin’ around?” Niko ran his tongue over his plump lips, where a crooked grin settled on his lips.
“Aww shit, bae. How long has it been?” Will said, turning towards me, looking for answers.
I had to bite back my urge to smack my lips because this nigga was really doing the absolute most. His guess was as good as mine. I blew out a deep breath. “I don’t know, Will. I stopped counting after you kept fucking other bitches.”
“Bae,” Will nervously said my name, giving me an expression that said chill out.
“I thought we said we were moving past that shit? We here to celebrate my brother being home. Alright?” I could hear the shakiness in his voice.
Will knew my mouth could be lethal, and if I didn’t feel like going along with his little act anymore, I wouldn’t.
I motioned towards Niko and Maddison as I said. “Celebrate your brother and leave me be.”
“Ain’t no way you fuckin’ her, my nigga,” another nigga that favored Niko, with waves and pretty grey eyes, said to Will in a teasing way.
“Aye, fuck you, Naheem. I handle my business,” Will weakly rebutted.
“He fuckin’ you right?” Niko asked, looking directly at me. His eyes had a hint of anger to them, which confused me.
Was he really asking me that with his bitch sitting on his lap? Niko had to be outta his rabbit ass mind if he thought I was finna answer that question. I scoffed at him rolling my eyes as all eyes were on me.
“You really asking another bitch if her nigga fucking her while I’m right here?” Maddison finally found her voice, turning to look back at Niko.
He lazily shrugged, Niko’s eyes bounced back over to me. “It’s just a question. Inquiring minds want to know? I mean, shit, it’s hella niggas out here that can help her readjust her attitude if she needs it,” Niko said, and I bawled my face up in disgust.
I don’t know who the fuck Niko took me for, but this wasn’t that and would never be. I wasn’t a weak bitch he was trying to make into a toss up. Fuck that, and fuck his nappy headed ass.
“I’m good, boo. Will fucks the shit outta me every mutha fuckin’ day.
How you think this ass got so phat?” I twisted to the side, showing my round ass off.
“Guess them backshots worked out for me.” I looked over at Will, who was beaming with pride.
I rolled my eyes. It’s time for me to get the fuck out of here.
“Let these niggas know, baby.” Will tried to wrap his arms around my waist. I stepped back out of his reach. I gave him a warning look, and he put his arms back to his side.
“Mmmhmm,” I said, ignoring the heated stare from Niko as I planned my escape from this bullshit ass party.
“Coulda fooled me with that funky ass attitude,” Niko taunted me. He gave me the dirtiest look as he took the blunt that was being passed in his direction.
“My attitude only comes about when I’m around bullshit ass niggas.
Call it intuition, but I think there is one in my vicinity.
You know what else? I hate when people try to wear all white, but that shit be dindgy as fuck.
Mutha fuckas shoulda just wore yellow. Go off though.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go to the restroom,” I sassily said, quickly turning on my heels before anyone could say anything else to me. Fuck Will. Fuck Niko.
