(Eve Above)

"Jay! Prom is freaking tomorrow! And I still don't have a date! I can't be that lonely bitch with no man" Eve exclaims while waving her hands up in the air and almost hitting me in my face. I swear if this bitch hits me, she's going 6 feet under. Kidding, of course. I won't kill my best friend and I hate the thought of blood. It just rubs me the wrong way.

"I was gonna go with James, but he ditched me last minute. Now I've spent at least 200 dollars on these damn tickets" she said, as she got the tickets from her pink clutch that was sitting on the dining room table.

"Well... that's your fault. I told you he was a jackass," I said with a chuckle. Then it hit me, "Wait... isn't he suppose to buy the tickets?" I said with another chuckle and in response she glared at me.

"But don't worry!" I said quickly, hoping to defuse the bomb.

"I'm going to go get Zane and he will be your date. Your lucky that he didn't have anything planned for this weekend tho" I said as I got up from the dining table we were I sitting at to go get something from the fridge to drink. When I stabbed the straw into the hole, I continued talking "But I don't understand why you need a date. I'm not going with anyone."

"Then why did you buy a second ticket?" Eve said.

"I bought it just in case I wanted to bring someone last minute. Highly doubt it tho. I waited to long to get a date" I said.

She looked at me with a glare again as if I slapped her in the face with my words. She grabbed the juice pack from my hand and started drinking it. Evil bitch, I thought as she finished it all.

"You could have had a date, but your dumbass said no to Thomas. You know, Thomas the guy you met at the fire drill and had an instant crush on " she explained to me like I was the dumbest girl in the world.

"I didn't like him that much. Like you said, he was just a crush. I mean, yes we talked, but that was just one time and it quickly died. I still don't understand why he asked me when I never really did talk to him," I said. I was truly confused on why he asked me. The only thing he did when he saw me around school was steal little glances that were very noticeable to Eve and I. And the sad part was that I would never look him in the eyes for some odd reason.

"Well still, that doesn't matter, you had a date and you ruined it all because your hung up on Robert. I never knew what you saw in him in the first place. White boys aren't really my cup of tea," she said as she walked up to throw the pouch in the trash. Eve's type was more Hispanics and her own people (black people). She's always made fun of me because of my love of white boys, but what can I say. I love all races... they just happen to turn out white.

"Well thank you for your opinion Eve. It really help. " I said using sarcasm with each word that came from my mouth.

"Robert and I are history anyways" I said as clearly as I could so she would listen.

"I don't know Jay. I just have a feeling, but I could be wrong," she said and then she changed the conversation over to Zane because she saw that I was getting irritated talking about Robert and his bride to be. We talked about what I would tell Zane to wear and what she would wear to correspond with his attire; however, I knew there was something missing. She was so excited when she thought James would go, but I guess now that he wasn't... her feelings died down just a tad about going to the dance. I felt bad for her. I mean, he did only wanted her for sex but she thought it was more. She could do so much better and everyone knew it. She was so pretty and she was going to waste her pure heart and soul and mind for that piece of shit.

After the long discussion, I went home. Since my brother and I lived alone, I have to check on him and make sure he's still alive. He's just like a plant. If I don't water him and put him in some sun, he will die or become obese from eating all those damn chips he keeps buying while he plays video games 24/7.

"Kev" I called out for him to answer.

Nothing.

"Kevin" I said again.

Still nothing. Oh shit this is bad. What if he is kidnapped! What am I gonna tell the parents. Sorry, I lost your son? I would be killed on site. SHIT!

I sprinted to his door and found that it was locked. I went to the kitchen and got a key for the cabinet and walked back to the door. When I opened it I saw Kevin and his girlfriend Darcy on the bed having a freaking make out session! They looked as if they had just been busted for selling crack on the streets.

"whats...uh... whats going on here?" I said waving at the two of them with my index finger.

"nothing" they said at the same time.

These bitches think I'm dumb, but I need to get to the serious point.

"Um.. Kevin, why was the door locked ?" I said confused with squinted eyes.

"um.." he said trying to find an excuse.

"Do you pay the bills in this house Kevin? Where the hell your rent money Kevin? Give me the damn money. Because clearly you got some nerve locking doors, in a house, you ain't paying shit for?" I said with angry voice. I wasn't really that angry, I just didn't wanna be supporting no damn baby.

"Look guys, crap like this is not suppose to happen right now. Wait until you my age or married," I said and was about to head out before I remember why I needed to talk to him in the first place.

"So Kevin imma be gone for a while I'll probably come back tomorrow so I don't want anyone in the house. Sorry Darcy," I said and looked at both of them.

"Its okay, I have something I have to do over the weekend " Darcy said.

"Okay guys. Well bye" I said and headed to my room to pack a little.
