The Thin Line In Between

Chapter 11

Milo above^

LIYANA POV

"What the hell are you doing here?? And dressed like that?!" I yell.

He scratches the back of his neck as he chuckles nervously.

"Well I-uh" he tries to get out.

I roll my eyes.

"Don't tell me you're Riot fam" I say calmly.

He stays quiet.

I facepalm.

"Really Marshall, you wrestle?" I question him.

"Well it's not wrestling it's technically boxin-" I stop him.

"Ehh I didn't come here to hear your life story, ima go get my lil drink I came for and go back and take my seat" I say while walking away.

I slightly turn my head towards him, "And you better win tonight or I'll be the nigga you fighting next and I fight both genders!" I say.

He laughs while nodding his head and walking away to the rink.

I shake my head to myself.

"Ain't that some shit" I say.

"Mommy she cusseddd!!"

I turn around to see a little girl pointing at me with a women, who most likely is the mother, glaring at me.

"Don't you have any manners to not cuss around children??" She scolds.

I put my hand on my hip.

"Women you have a CHILD at an secret boxing place and you're telling ME to watch my mouth??" I question.

"Child anywayyss" I say as I grab my drink and walk away.

"THATS ANOTHER WINNNN FOR RIOTTT!! EVERYBODY GIVE HIM A HANDD!" The announcer yells.

The crowd cheers.

"Damn that was fast" I say.
——————————————————————————
"I'm starving!" I whines for the 2568854346th time.

"Let's go to Whataburger, they open 24 hours" Devin says.

"Yea hopefully that'll shut yo ass up!" Milo argues.

I do a happy dance.

I loveeeeeee FOOD!!

"Ima act like you ain't tell me to shut up either hoe!" I say.

He shakes his head and drives to Whataburger.

I go back and think about how I saw Marshall at the secret boxing rink,  an ILLEGAL one at that.

Interesting, but I'm not finna be nosy today and be all up in his business.

We arrive and go in to order our food.

"I'll go pick a table" I say.

They nod.

I go an find a booth then I sit down.

"Hey Ana" I hear.

Whaa-

I look up and see Dallas.

Huh? I was only called that once and by one person longgg ago.

*FLASHBACK*

My 8 year old self was walking to my home room class when my bestest friend in the whole world had came bounding down the hallway.

"Ana! Ana! Wait for me!" He yelled.

I stop and turn around.

I had a full blown smile on my face as I ran to him to meet.

We pull each other in a bear hug and rock together.

"I missed you" he muffled out from my shoulder.

I giggle.

"We saw each other literally the other day silly!" I say.

He pulls back and blushes.

He shrugs with his hands behind his back.

*FLASHBACK OVER*

I raise an eyebrow and look at him.

"May I help you?" I ask still questioning.

He sits down across from me and looks at me.

Deeply.

Straight into my eyes.

"What are you doing here?" He asks.

"I came here with Milo and Devin" I say.

He furrows his eyebrows.

His jaw tenses.

"Who are they? Some boys? Are one of them your boyfriend?" He grits out.

I feel the change of atmosphere.

"Um first of all Devin is a girl and second why does it matter to you?" I say.

He glares down at his hands on the table as a pink tint starts to cover his cheeks.

"Oh" he mumbles.

Devin and Milo make there way to to table and looks back and forth between me and Dallas.

Devin sits beside me while Milo stands there in shock.

"U-um, your in my seat" he slowly says.

Dallas looks up and gives him a heart gripping glare.

Milo slightly jumps in surprise and I think I see him shake a little.

Dallas turns his glare to me and it softens a little, but he gets up nonetheless.

He turns around before he leaves and says,"Don't forget that we have a tutor session tomorrow after school."

Then he walks out.

"What the hell was all of that!!?" Milo screeches.

Devin had already dug into her food and nods her head as agreeing to Milo.

I shrug my shoulders," I don't know, he just came over here."

He looks at me questioningly and Devin just goes back to eating.

I then, too, do the same.
