After what seemed like forever, the dismissal bell finally rings. Soon after walking out of class I get a text from Aiyden.
My Peace💕
Meet me by the East Gym. 1:45
Ok. 1:47
As I'm walking over to the gym, I'm almost immediately stopped by Jordan and Yasmine. And as I expected, in nosey bitch fashion, they started asking questions.
"What are you doing after you leave?" Jordan asked "Nothing," I reply, "Well I'm going to Aiyden's house to finish our project. Why?" "Chile you already know Jordan, nosey asl with no reasoning behind it." Yasmine says, causing Jordan to roll his eyes. "I was just asking," Jordan says nudging Yasmine, " And I think our baby is about to do more than just finish his project." " Again Jordan, what in the flying fuck are you talking about?" I say "Aiyden is going to work with you and make sure you finish, if you know what I mean!" I instantly turn red, which is kinda hard for someone of my complexion. "Boy please," Yasmine interrupts, "Just because Zae finishes you off every night, doesn't mean that Aiyden is going to do the same with him." "I'm just saying, and your one to talk, how many times have you and King had sex this week? Huh?" "Plenty, but at least I don't struggle with walking after." "Girl please, let's not forget the time King had to get that heavy ass blanket."
I laugh to myself thinking about how often these petty arguments take place. We've all been friends since second grade. I met Jordan on the playground. I'll always remember us laughing on top of the monkey bars because he made another kid fall down. Then we became friends with Yasmine after she transferred here from a different county. I remember beating up her fifth grade boyfriend because he broke up with her and called her a crybaby afterwards. Every since, we've been known as The Three Smurfs. King named us that. And please don't ask, because I don't know neither.
"As much as I would love to hear this, I do have to go meet my future baby daddy." I say before turning around and walking away. "Bye boo." They both say before turning back to finish their little scuffle.
Not long after, I finally spot Aiyden leaning on the wall by the gym door.
"Hey!" I say enthusiastically "Sorry about the wait, I got stopped by Yasmine and Jordan. And you know how that can go." "Nah, you good Pa, I had to stop and talk to coach anyways." He says putting his arm around my shoulders, and walking us out of the school, and into the parking lot. Now imagine his 6'2 to my 5'5, so it looked more like he was using me as an arm rest. "What did you have to talk to him about? Was it something about the season?" I ask looking up at him
"Kinda; I was thinking about only playing football this year. Meaning I won't be playing basketball after the break. I've already gotten 5 full ride scholarships for football, and 2 for basketball, so I want to focus more on my academics this spring."
"Oh, well what did he say?"
"He just told me that I should do what's best for me."
"I mean yea, only you know what's best for you. But this is my car."
"Ok, well I'm going to send you the address and you can go straight there. I'll text you the gate code and Celeste will let you in. Imma go get us some pizza and stuff, just text me what kind you want."
Y'all I think I'm in love with this man already!
"Oh, and can you keep that little convo between us?" He said, holding my face between his hands. "Sure!" I say back, not really having a reason to tell anyone for anyway. "Thanks pa," He says kissing me on my forehead, "I'll see you in a minute." He turns around and heads to his car.
Y'all, I'm wet😭. This man has me falling head over heels already.
