*a week later*
"You've never had humus before?" Niya asked looking at me surprised as we ate snacks in her bed
Not gone cap a nigga high as hell. Before I came over here I sat on the block with threat and Loso for 2 hours smoking wood after wood.
"Ima keep it a band wit you. Ion even know what the fuck it is" I shrugged
She bust out laughing And I smiled at her. Something bout her goofy ass laugh that just make a nigga happy on the inside. She don't do nothing but smile.
"Why're you staring at me like that creep?" She asked smacking me with the pillow
I snatched the pillow from her and smacked her ass back with it.
"Because I fucking can" I said and she laughed
"Why you so mean?" She asked me fake pouting
"I'm not, you hit me first" I said and pulled her into my lap
She straddled me and wrapped her arms around my neck. I kissed her lips twice before just simply looking up at her. I noticed she had on the necklace I got her and another one that said 'Malibu' in cursive letters.
"Where'd you got this from?" I asked her holding the necklace in my hands
"Oh um, a friend gave it to me in Malibu before I left. Kind of like a little going away present" she smiled innocently
"Tell me about Malibu. You never talk about it" I said wrapping my arms around her and gripping her butt.
"Um well, the weather was a lot nicer for one. It was sunny literally all the time. The beach was so close we would go almost every weekend. The juniors and seniors would always throw parties on the beach and since I was co-captain of the cheerleading team I was always in and out of every party. We would drink and drink until the sun came up. It was like life was one big nonstop party in Malibu" she said looking down at the necklace smiling a little bit.
"You don't miss it?" I asked her
She sighed and shook her head no.
"Partying gets exhausting after a while" she simply said looking at me
"Especially when you don't know your limit" she said lowly looking away from me
"Whatchu mean?" I asked making her look at me
"Ummmmm..." she trailed off looking all around the room
"Yeen gotta talk about it" I shrugged
I mean she don't if she don't want too. I know better that anybody else, certain shit you just don't speak on.
"No it's fine. My last weekend in Malibu my friend Kelsey threw this big ass mansion party at her dads house. It was probably like the biggest party I had ever been to. That night I told my mom I was going to stay the night at Ashley house when really we were going to the party. Long story short I ended up, upside down drinking out of a keg. I don't really remember what happened before or after that. All I know is my boyfriend-...well ex boyfriend Riley was holding me up while I chugged but I guess I took it too far. I ended up in the emergency room with alcohol poisoning. Then I had to get my stomach pumped.....twice" she said with a slight chuckle
"Damn ma" I said wrapping my arms around my arms around her waist.
She hugged me back and rested her head on top of mine.
"I just felt so invisible in Malibu. After my brother died my mom dedicated her whole life to her work. She was a writer and she was always doing book tours and meet and greets and shit. She was never home. I had to basically raise myself after Nigel died. But When I was the party girl at least the people from school noticed me." she continued
