ALL THIS LOVE
I just wanna say thanks to you guys for reviewing. I really appreciate it. I was happy with at least getting one review and when two popped up I had a goofy ass smile on my face lol.
MissG2020, yeah I'm part Bajan. I never lived there though lol. My dad's from Barbados and apparently my mom's side is too (not my grandparents but, y'know...the ancestors or somethin' lol) I'm tryin' to go this summer though!
& Miss Ace, girl you did have me there. lol I was like "Oh lawd! She don't like my story!" lol but, turns out you do! So thanks for the review :D
Okay, lemme clear this up. I have done stories before, but it was so long ago (I'm only 18, don't judge me lol) and I used to write children stories so...yeah. I guess this isn't exactly my first story, but it's my first story like this. So please just bare with me. (I'm still tryin' to learn how to post chapters up in here!)
Reader- "OKAYYY BACK TO THE STORY!"
Me- "NO! Wait a minute. I forgot to mention something. Well in the last chapter under Cindy's description, I put that she had a crush on Caesar, but I meant to put Riley, so it's changed. Just wanted to let you know just incase you...well you'll find out soon enough! (Not in this chapter though :/ sorry.)
Reader- "...Now, back to the story?"
Me- *nods*
CHAPTER 2: HIM & HER
As Huey walked to the driveway to get into his old ass Mercedes 2000 car, he was surprised with a hug from the back. He didn't even have to turn around to know who it was. "What, Jazmine?" He nonchalantly 'greeted' her.
"Well hello to you too, Huey." Jazmine optimistically greeted him back. "Where are you going?"
"Out."
Jazmine rolled her eyes and smiled at his little 'game' he always liked to play. "Well duh, silly. I mean, are you going to the bookstore, grocery store, clothing store, what?" She asked, using hand gestures.
Huey inwardly smiled at her cute gestures and opened the passenger side door. "Get in." He bluntly ordered and she happily followed.
"So, why does your Granddad want this CD?" Jazmine asked, on the brink of laughter.
"Who knows?" Huey shrugged and brought the CD to the register. After the two returned to the car, Jazmine just stared at Huey's head. Oh, I just wanna play with that big, beautiful ball of hair on his head. It's so…big, and cute. Huey's the only one, (and maybe Riley), who could pull that off.
Jazmine stayed in her dreamily state, until Huey caught her eye as he drove up the road. Her glazed expression caused him to slightly blush and shift uncomfortably. "Uhh…Jazmine…"
"Yes…" She replied, still in her own world.
"Jazmine!" Huey spoke louder, but her expression hadn't changed. He suddenly drove up to a gas station, but as he approached the gas pumps, he slammed on his breaks, causing Jazmine to squeal.
"Oh great, you're awake." He said, sarcastically enthused. Jazmine just shook her head from the little shock and smiled at Huey. "Sorry Huey, I was just-"
"Thinkin' about me." Huey plainly stated before getting out of the car to pump some gas into the tank. Jazmine's eyes widened in horror as she got out with him and tried hard to cover up her blush.
"What? No, I was NOT thinking about YOU! I was just thinking about…something my cousin said…the other day." Jazmine lied, obviously, and Huey knew it, but he loved to mess with her like that. So he continued, as he pumped the gas.
"Uh-huh, so what did your cousin say to make you smile so much?"
Jazmine froze and tried to think up a quick answer, but miserably failed. "Uhh…it's not important." All the while Huey inwardly smirked and after it read "20.00", he removed the pump, closed the tank and settled back into the car. Jazmine walked to the passenger side and scurried inside.
"So where are we going now?" Jazmine excitedly questioned. Huey just kept his eyes on the road. After realizing that she wasn't getting an answer, she just shrugged her shoulders and pulled out her brand new iPod touch that her parents recently gave to her for her perfect attendance at school. Honestly, who gives their children gifts like that for 'perfect attendance'? It would be a shock to most kids to even receive anything for 'perfect attendance'.
Huey hated it. He hated how Jazmine's parents would spoil her every week. It just wasn't healthy and it made her look bad because she was constantly labeled a spoiled brat, when in truth, Jazmine was the sweetest and most generous person there is. The only big thing she's ever asked for was a pony when she was between the ages of 7 and 12, but she grew out of that and by the way, who the hell raises a pony in the suburbs?
All in all, she was greatly appreciated, but she never thought about getting over half of the things her parents give to her. So to Huey, it just wasn't right. She was labeled because of her parents' off the wall obsession with pleasing their daughter. Sad, so sad.
Approaching the Freeman Residence, Jazmine was singing along (in a very nice voice by the way) to a Mariah Carey song (Alone in Love) that she was listening to on her iPod.
Swept me away but now I'm lost in the dark
Set me on fire, but now I'm left with a spark
Alone you got beyond the haze and
I'm lost inside the maze
I guess I'm all alone in love
I look into your eyes
You turn the other way
And now I realize
It's all a game you play
I hold you in the night
And wake to find you gone
You're running out of sight
It's so hard holding on
All alone in love
Whatever it was, it sounded like a nice song to Huey and Jazmine looked so beautiful with her hair in that messy bun on top of her head and the two curly tresses resting on each side of her face. She decided to wear a baby pink long sleeved button up, dark blue skinny jeans and pink baby doll shoes. Her earrings were gold, along with her necklace and her rings. The girl could dress her ass off.
Huey also noticed how she never wore fake nails. She painted them occasionally, but other than that, she really knew how to take care of them. He thought it was cute, but who the hell was he to tell her that? Huey Freeman would never admit to such a thing. That's just not how he is.
They finally pulled into the driveway. Huey was about to tell Jazmine to go home, but her parents weren't home yet and he knew how much she hated to be alone. Besides, somewhere deep down, he really wanted to be with her. So he just walked into the house, knowing she'd follow him anyways.
"Aye boy, you got my CD?" Came the lovely greeting.
"Yeah, Granddad." Huey answered and handed the black opaque bag to him.
"Hey Mr. Freeman!" Jazmine politely greeted the old man. Granddad shifted his head to the side to see Jazmine standing right behind Huey.
"Oh, hey there cutie pie! I didn't even see you behind Huey's big head." Granddad rudely stated.
Huey just scoffed. He then took notice of his Granddad standing right in front of the stairway. "Granddad, can you please move. I'm tryin' to go upstairs."
"Whateva. Ya'll behave now. I know ya'll at that age where-"
"Granddad, stop! We are not gonna do anything. We're just friends." Huey reassured. Jazmine tried hard to prevent her disappointment. It's not like she wanted to sleep with him or anything but she didn't want them to do…nothing.
"Whateva, I'm goin to sleep."
"But it's 6:00."
"Point?"
"…"
"…"
"…..Well, me and Jazmine are goin' upstairs." He informed him again and gestured for Jazmine to follow him. "Come on."
"Okay, now REMEMBER what I said!" Granddad yelled up the stairs before he went to his special chair in the living room.
By now, Riley and Stacia were in their underclothes halfway under the covers. Riley had on his blue boxers and his wife beater and Stacia had on her lace bra and underwear. Riley just lay on top of her and they both gazed into each other's eyes.
"Baby, you so sexy." Riley cooed and she brought her lips up to kiss him. "You up for round two?" She sexily replied to his statement. Riley responded by sucking her bottom lip and nibbling on it a bit. Just then, they heard the door open and looked to see Huey and Jazmine standing in the doorway. Huey just shook his head and Jazmine giggled girlishly.
"YO NIGGA, WHAT THE FUCK! YOU CAN'T JUST KNOCK!" Riley argued as Stacia, not really caring who saw, kissed his collarbone, causing him to moan softly. Jazmine just giggled some more.
"Okay Riley, first off, I live here, so I can walk anywhere I please. Secondly, if you that embarrassed, why not go to her place?" Huey nonchalantly questioned. He noticed the girl pulling Riley closer to her center and he just closed his eyes. "And she has NO shame whatsoever." he muttered.
Riley and Stacia made out for a few seconds before Riley looked back to the blank expressions on the faces of Jazmine and Huey. "Nigga, WHAT! The fuck do you want? We not havin' no fuckin orgy party, nigga! Either get out or fuck YOUR bitch somewhere else!" Huey completely ignored him. Well, almost. He didn't necessarily like the fact that Riley just called Jazmine a bitch. He suddenly realized he didn't need to say anything, because Riley's statement caused Stacia to slap him in the face.
"OW! Baby what the-"
"I told you to stop addressin' women as bitches, especially Jazmine." She demanded, but in a soft voice that caused Riley to melt again and he just leant down and kissed her. He whispered his apology in her ear and he started to play with her ear as he did earlier. Huey just rolled his eyes.
"Uh, okay Riley. You been in this room for hours doing…whatever, but now I'd like to chill in my own room."
After a few moments, Riley sighed and turned to his brother. "Fine nigga, I'm goin' to Stacia's so we won't get interrupted by YOU two. Just give me a few minutes to get dressed."
Huey nodded and he and Jazmine exited the room. They stood in the hallway by the door, waiting.
"Huey, since when did Riley get into…you know?"
"Sex?"
"Yeah…"
"I don't know. I wanna say last year, but I'm not really sure. I don't care too much to know all of that."
Silence filled the atmosphere (although they could've sworn they heard a small moan in the room) as they waited for the lovebirds to come out. Jazmine thought about how she wanted to say what was on her mind without being too obvious. She finally spoke up.
"Uh…Huey?"
"Yes?"
"…What do you think about…you know?"
"Sex?"
"Yeah…"
At this, Huey was a little taken back. Not necessarily because of the answer that was building in his mind, but just the fact that little old Jazmine would ever ask such a question. She freaking stayed in her home for two years once she heard about the 9/11 attack. Now she just wants to know everything, which sometimes annoyed him and sometimes excited him on the inside.
And this subject did, indeed, excite him on the inside. But would he ever admit it?
He didn't really want to give her a full drawn out explanation, so he just gave her a simple statement. "Uh, well…I can't really say for sure since I'm still a virgin, but I heard it was great…y'know, minus the possibility of obtaining a STD." He responded and blushed harshly. Jazmine wasn't really looking at him so she didn't see his flushed cheeks.
"Oh…" She said, almost in a disappointing tone, which confused Huey. He turned to Jazmine and stared at her for a few seconds, the color in his cheeks going away.
"A much better question though: Why did you ask me that?" Huey asked, raising an eyebrow. Jazmine looked up at him and tried conjuring up an answer, for she really didn't know the reason why she asked that, aloud that is. Dang it, Jazmine!
"Mmm…I don't know. It was just a question." She answered, shrugging a bit. Huey still stared at her and realized that her face was flushed, but…naw. He couldn't have been the reason she was blushing, could he?
"Umm, Huey…I-"
The bedroom door opened, interrupting Jazmine's speech, and Riley and Stacia came out smiling hard. Whatever the smell was that was inside of the room, it came whooshing into the hallway along with the door.
Huey and Jazmine held their noses.
"Yo! I know ya'll didn't just do it again!" Huey silently yelled behind his hand, trying not to wake Granddad up. "Damn! How am I gonna relax in here now?
Riley and Stacia just giggled. "Calm down, nigga. You'll learn to love it when you actually get some! And the air freshener's in the bathroom." Stacia just giggled some more and Huey and Jazmine watched as the couple nearly sprinted down the stairs and out of the house through the front door.
