Ch 3: Goodies

Song Credit; 'Ciara-Goodies'

I bet you want the Goodies

Bet you thought about it

Got you all hot and bothered

Mad cause I talk around it

When Emilia plopped down on the cushion beside her, humming what sounded like Ciara's 'Goodies', Taye's eyes never waivered off of the television where she was watching an episode of The Voice that she missed but remembered to set a record reminder on her dvr.

It was a little past ten at night and as usual Emilia invited herself to crash at her apartment since Taye's place was closer to the gym that she and Bodie would often frequent and with the commute being something like a seven minute light jog around the block, Emilia already had her alarm set to wake her up at six in the morning, which she also at the most part threatened Taye to tag along with her for a nice morning workout.

And with no other choice but to sacrifice her usual routine of sleeping in until ten on Saturday's, Taye was forced to agree when Emilia pulled out the big guns by promising that she was going to do something drastic that would involve replacing all of the junk food sitting in the pantry in the kitchen with protein bars. Which in Taye's opinion, she couldn't understand why her friend even enjoyed eating a bar that tasted like dirty chalk.

In the meantime, Taye would have been damned if she let her Oreo's get taken away, so to save herself, she opted to sign her soul over for one morning of cardio exercise with Emilia and apparently Bodie who she just learned a couple of minutes ago was down with another member joining their 'fitness party'.

And speaking of blonde,

" Have you ever thought about hooking up with Bodie? You know, letting him have the 'goodies'?"

The question that indeed came out completely left field- Taye's sudden expression seemed to match perfectly with the sour note that the contestant currently on the show belted into the microphone.

Finding the inquiry enough to make her avert her attention away from the television, Taye turned her head to look at her, and the hyprocrite that she was, Emilia had a piece of chocolate fudge brownie aiming for her mouth.

Taye made a mental note to get on her about her 'eating habits' just as well, but in the meantime, she snatched the sweet square confection out of Emilia's fingers.

"Hey!"

" What extra ingredient did you put in this thing?" she accused, about to take a whiff when Emilia attempted to snatch it back which resulted in the soft bread breaking apart, inevitably making a small mess on the couch.

" I don't smoke weed anymore, Taye!"

In response Taye regarded her with suspicious eyes before returning to her television show.
