Ceaser knew rio through carlos , the man was calm , Maoist of the time at least and it took allot to get him even remotely annoyed .

Rio was marks brother , the guy who had pushed ceaser into Carlos's room while he were drunk on prom night , and also the guy who half shadowed Carlos allot of the time .

Rio wasn't completely in the gang life , but he was there , and nobody really messed with him .

His looks completely differed from marks as well , if anything , rio almost reminded him of Carlos himself with his tattoos and body type . He was around the same age as Carlos , if not only a few years older . Covered in tats and dark hair , he was someone who he could definitely see taming jamals craziness

Or he thinks it would be funny seeing him attempt to

" umm , where are we going ",monse pipes up with annoyance growing on her face as she side glances jamal from beside her - the question making jamal turn his gaze away from rio and onto ceaser

" oh , we gotta get little c back to the crib , obviously ", rio chuckles out with a half shrug , catching her gaze and raising an amused brow when he sees the defiant and pissed off look that quickly overtook her face

" oh, hell no -

" you don't have to come , monse , we're not making you ", ceaser interupts as he stood as well , jamal groaning as he stops with stomp in his step and looks to monse with a look

" you're not tied to us , by all means , leave , you're just gonna make the situation worse ", jamal huffs , looking her up and down before turning back around and continues walking , rio letting out a slow whistle that trails off into a half chuckle as he eyed jamal strutting away

" the sass in that boy ", he mutters under his breathe before heading after him with a slight jog , ceasers smile drops as he looks back to monse and realised he's stuck with her by himself

And the look she was giving him was so familiar that it made him overly uncomfortable

" you heard them , just go home monse , I doubt you'd want to be stuck with Carlos anyway ", he shrugs , half turning before her voice stops him

" no , it's fine , I'll come ", she breathes out , narrowing her eyes slightly at him before smiling and walking towards jamal and rio " yo , jamal , wait up "

...............

Arriving at the worn out place that was referred to the get up / or the crib for any gang members from aminos , it made jamal clamp up nervously as monse stiffened

It was a bit crowded , music setting a hum throughout the set up outside the place

Girls sitting on guys laps , and there was a odd singular teen boy that jamal is pretty sure he's seen in his trig class , who was sat on the floor cross legged at a woman's feet as she played with his hair and spoke with the man beside her , the other teen smiling at jamal when they hold eye contact

Rio glances back , following his gaze and chuckling slightly , giving a small wave to the boy on the floor before wrapping a hand around jamals wrist and tugging him near him

Monses face scrunched up as she looked around , a few people shirtless , smoking , working out with large weights , she glances to ceaser , a frown coming onto her face as he smiles and speaks to people as he passes them - seeming to be completely calm and more himself than usual

" uh , where's your man, ceaser ", jamal half squeaks out as he looked around anxiously, shuffling a bit closer to rio as he was giided to the front door

" not outside , that's for sure ", ceaser snorted before looking over " don't worry , I got you , brother  , you got nothing to worry about ", he shoots a calm smile his way before heading into the house, looking into the living  room before seeing to not see Carlos and makes his way towards the kitchen
