"i'm just saying, jade and tori were definitely fuckin' on the low." i said nonchalantly.

cleo looked down at me in thought, from where my head was laying in her lap, while icsis said "well, i think that jade and cat were fuckin' on the low."

"hm," i hummed. "i dunno, bro. there was an undeniable chemistry between jade and tori."

icsis shrugged.

"i don't know; they're all hot though." cleo added.

"true." me and icsis agreed at the same time.

"anyways," i sighed. "what's up with you and ole boy?" i asked cleo.

"i dunno. we've been hanging more, i guess." she shrugged.

"are you still planning on trying to make him fall for you just for you to ghost him?" i raised a brow.

"that is so mean." icsis gasped as her eyes widened.

"he's a player," i explained, while cleo went "he deserves it."

icsis thought for a moments. "well... he is a man, so what do you expect?" she snorted.

i nodded in agreement. cleo then poked my sides. "how are you and billieeee?"

"we're good." i told her.

"y'all in love yet?" she teased.

"dude... we've been dating for a month; relax." i chuckled.

"well, y'all are always so lovey dovey; why wouldn't i assume that you're in love?" she cocked a brow.

"shut up," i laughed. "what about you, icy? you found someone?"

she shrugged. "i mean... i hooked up with a girl earlier this week? i didn't get her number though..."

"you're hopeless." i chuckled.

"you're never able to get girls' numbers after you hook up with them, but you got sage's number the night you met her; what's up with that?" cleo asked in a joking tone.

i awkwardly cleared my throat, while icsis avoided our eyes and rubbed at the back of her neck. "i dunno— i was drunk and high that night, dude." she let out an awkward laugh.

"fair enough." cleo shrugged.

my phone ringing made me get up. i grabbed my phone and saw that billie was trying to facetime me. i told cleo and icsis that i'd be right back before stepping out of the room.

"hey, baby." i answered.

"hi, mama." she greeted.

"wassup?" i raised a brow.

"i dunno..." she shrugged before furrowing her brows. "where are you at?"

"cleo's house."

"is it just you and cleo, or is there other people there?" she questioned.

"icsis is here too..." i told her. "i was just seeing them for a bit."

"... can't you see me?" she queried.

my brows furrowed. "i just saw you yesterday, bil; and the day before too."

"i know, but... i miss you," she jutted her bottom lip out a bit. "and i want a kiss; just a lil' smooch."

"so needy," i murmured teasingly. "me, icsis, and cleo were gonna watch a movie, so it's gonna be at least two hours before i can come see you, bub."
