A/N: Thanks to all of you peeps that reviewed. Time to give ya'll some big-ups as they are always due. Also please excuse any errors for I didn't have time to proofread. I will re-edit tonight when I get home from work but until then ENJOY!
Jazzibel34: Thanks for loving my story and saying I'm amazing. That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy…heh but I'm sure once you update your fic and add these juicy bits you talkin about, I'll do a back flip of joy!
princesslady: Good job updating your story. You live another day not to see my dark realm, anywho…there's gonna be some more Huey and Jazmine. It seems like right about now I'm taking the footsteps of season 2 and making Huey, a supporting character. It's not intention but he's still of the main characters in this story.
Chuchie12: You are absolute correct about an old flame can burn again. That's why Carmela's being over-protective over lil ol' innocent Sunshine.
RosettaStone'sLove: Yea, what Jazmine went through in the last chapter has happened to all of us at least once in our lifetime. I'm glad you like both of my ocs, but by the time this chapter ends, you just might have second thoughts.
YoungNeil: Ya damn right Sunshine is the truth. Obviously she still got mad love for Riley. But that's besides the point…and yes Milsap is a bad mother-SHUT YO MOUF! And last but not least, you just might have more time to update these stories if you wasn't busy doin' the CRANK DAT dance all over town…LOL sorry I just had to say that after those funny ass videos. I see why you are so crazy wit these stories, homie. But I'm also glad you notice how important your grades are. Don't fall into the statistics. Quit hatin' and get education, mah nigga!
23lilly: Yea I don't know why I was up that late…but I figured I might as well drop some bombs on this forum. Yea I think Sunshine is pretty cool too, too bad Mela has to be hater, am I right? Green is the color of envy and that's what Carmela is glowin' right about now. The pic my friend is drawing of Carmela will feature her in the jersey dress. I wish he would finish shading it so I can show off its beauty to the WOOOOOOORLD.
Tani-Ni: Hopefully she will get those groceries home in time. But that's not the only thing she should be worried about…and that's all I'm going to say right there.
MizzC: Yea Trelle is pretty much whoopin candy ass left and right, maybe she'll come through and whoop the last four and win it all. This way Huey won't even get a bruise on him and can still make it home in time to have din-din with the Dubois? I mean it's just a thought. Carmela can't really do too much damage to Sunshine since she's still in those leg braces, that I just remembered about…Oo. So I guess Marisol will have to do the potential beat down instead…XD
CinnamonStar: I know right? Latrelle should just change her name to ASS-KICKER. Which also makes ya wonder, if Latrelle is doin this good, the other Woodcrest Hills Preps should do even better, or close to right? At this rate we might never find out…but thanks for the review.
And there ya go…I just personally thanked and responded back to all of you who always take enough time out of your life, to read and REVIEW my story. I really do appreciate that…well let's start the SHOW before some imaginary tears start to drop.
Disclaimer: If my name was Aaron McGruder I would claim this as my show, but since my name isn't Aaron McGruder, I don't own The Boondocks. Okay?
Chapter 7: Win or Go Home Part II
After nearly escaping the heated confrontation between Carmela and Riley, Jazmine took a deep breath and a sigh of relief. She was pushing a red shopping cart and scanning through the shopping list her mother made for her.
"Hmm…what to get first?" Jazmine asked herself out loud.
"Maybe you should get milk since you're over here in the market area." a voice whispered causing Jazmine to turn around in a fighting stance. The owner of the voice giggled like a little school girl as Jazmine dropped her stance and joined in the gigglefest.
"Sunshine." Jazmine said in between giggles. "You startled me."
"Sorry…I was just trying to help." Sunshine then looked at her watch. "Since I have about fifteen minutes left on my shift."
"Well you should totally spend your last fifteen minutes helping me shop. You know this store like the back of your hand."
"Well I suppose I can. Plus I need to talk to you about someone…" Sunshine said while grabbing a gallon of milk out of the freezer.
"Riley?" Jazmine arched her eyebrow up, just like her boyfriend always does. When she noticed Sunshine starting to blush, she knew this had to do with Riley. Jazmine grabbed the milk from Sunshine and placed into her shopping cart. "This is about Riley, huh?"
"Just not him, about his baby mama too." Sunshine nervously played with her fingers.
"Ok, I am all ears."
"Well it's just…I still have love for Riley. It's love that will never go away. He can get twenty girls pregnant, but I'm still gonna have love for him. I watch how Carmela treats him sometimes and it's jacked up, ya know?"
Jazmine nodded in agreement, because it was true.
"I mean she nearly got him killed while ya'll was in New York. The night she betrayed him, he called me and he was crying but I still comforted him. Even though he was wasting his tears on another woman, I still comforted him. To this very day if him and Carmela ever have problems, I'm the first one he seeks. Not Huey, but me!" Her sentence came out a little weak, due to the fact her voice was cracking.
Jazmine felt her eyes becoming watery as she continued to listen to Sunshine's violin play.
"Deep down, I think he still loves me. After that night he was betrayed by her…he even told me so. The only thing that's stopping him from leaving Carmela is Kiyone. If they didn't have a child, I would have my Riley back." she blinked a couple of times as some tears rolled down her red cheeks.
"Not to be rude or anything? But exactly why did you and Riley break-up in the first place?" Jazmine asked, handing Sunshine a sheer of Kleenex.
"He broke with me because…" Sunshine just head her down in shame. "He thought I was pregnant last summer!"
"What?" Jazmine's eyes shot open twice their normal size. "Riley told us ya'll broke up because your parents didn't like him."
"That's partially true, but the main reason is because he thought I was carrying his child!"
"Oh…but you weren't really preggo?" Jazmine slowly asked. "We're you?"
"Nuh uh…just had some symptoms." Sunshine sniffed.
"I know all about that." Jazmine chuckled to herself. Mental images of her eating bizarre foods, throwing up and Huey going postal played in her mind. "I thought I was pregnant last December and the funniest thing is Huey and I have never slept together. Well we've slept in the same bed, but that's all."
"Hmm…"Sunshine wasn't really paying attention to Jazmine.
"Earth to Sunny, Sunny to Earth."
"I'm here…just thinking." Sunshine sniffed again. "He left me for that, but then when he seriously gets a girl pregnant he remains with her? What the hell is up with that?!"
"I'm guessing it was because after Carmela scarified her life for him, he discovered his true feelings for her and his unborn baby at the time. Of course, he didn't even know she was pregnant until that shooting occurred."
"That's still not a good enough excuse, but why am I stressing over this? There's nothing I can do to change Esco's mind. He loves Carmela, not me!"
Jazmine really didn't know what to say. She wanted to say 'Yes, Riley still loves you but he's also in love with his baby mama.'
"I'm sorry…maybe you should tell Riley about this. Ya know, how ya feel about all of this."
"I would but I don't want to get my ass shot by Carmela or her older sister." Sunshine cracked a smile through those tears that just wouldn't stop falling.
"Well I have an idea." Jazmine pointed her right index finger into the sky. "Tomorrow, you and Riley should have lunch together, meanwhile I'll keep Carmela and Marisol locked down at Huey's house."
"Sounds good, but it also sounds like a possible FAILURE." Sunshine said.
"Well I think the only way to solve this dilemma is for you to tell how you truly feel and then see what Riley thinks about it. Who knows…maybe he'll have a different outlook on both of ya'll. Even if he picks Carmela over you, at least you'll have all this weight off of your conscience."
"You're right." Sunshine then fell into Jazmine's arms and cried out. "THANK YOU JA-A-A-AZMINE!"
"Er…you're welcome." Jazmine blushed as she noticed a crowd of shoppers staring at them.
Meanwhile over in Sporting Goods…
"Hey Cindy!" Caesar called out. Cindy looked in his direction and noticed a brown ball in his hand. "CATCH!"
Caesar launched the pigskin like a shot being released from a barrel at Cindy, who gracefully caught it with one hand. She smirked and returned the ball in a similar fashion. However the results weren't the same. The ball flew extremely fast like a bullet and hit Caesar in the family jewels.
"No children for the next ten years." Caesar said in a squeaky voice as he collapsed to his knees.
"Damn baby, I'm sorry…I forgot the only futbol you're good at is soccer." Cindy chuckled as she kneeled down with him.
"You should play football too, you'd be a mean QB." his voice still remained squeaky and high-pitch.
"Nah, I'll stick to breakin' cats ankles all day everyday!"
"And breakin' ya nigga's balls…" he muttered.
"Oh hush." Cindy kissed him on the cheek. "Learn to catch!"
Caesar slowly got up and tried to walk. The pain was really getting to him, so he had to start waddling like a penguin to reduce to pain. This earned him giggles from shoppers and uncontrollable laughter from Cindy.
"You keep laughin…" Caesar started. "Don't be mad when tonight I won't be able to ship supplies to your sea port."
"First of all, why would I want you to do all of that? You can let the ship visit, but it better not deploy no supplies! Not at least until we're juniors in college!" she hissed.
"Alright, damn baby calm down…wasn't that serious." Caesar chuckled. "Speaking of which, I think before we exited this place, we need to stop by the pharmacy."
"For?" Cindy asked.
"Some protection."
"We're out again?" Cindy moaned. "I thought we had that twenty four pack!"
"Well…ya know those aren't the right size for yours truly." he grinned.
"Oh…so we need the extra small?" she beamed.
"You really think you got jokes, huh?" Caesar wrapped his arms around her waist and got behind her, kissing the back of her neck.
"I get em' from my baby…" she moaned from the delight of the tender kisses.
"GET A ROOM!" a shopper yelled.
"GET A LIFE!" Caesar yelled back. "And a tape-up while you're at it!"
"Alright, let's grab a b-ball and some jimmy hats so we can bounce with Jazmine soon." Cindy winked.
Meanwhile at The Bushido Brown Dojo…
Huey carefully watched the movements of Latrelle's current opposition. His moves were definitely hypnotized and not to be taken lightly. The afro-headed warrior suddenly started to lose confident in his pupil. He knew Latrelle was not taking Milsap serious which in the end which be her downfall.
"Latrelle!" Huey yelled from the sideline. "Be careful…stay on top of your game."
"Oh nigga please! I got this…mind ya own." Latrelle spat back.
"Niggas." Huey muttered. 'Looks like Chad will be going next at this rate.'
"Ok enough wit da bullshit dancin' and let's battle!" Latrelle smirked.
Milsap smirked back and flipped upside down and started walking on his hands. He approached Latrelle in a heartbeat and began spinning on his head. As he was doing this he had both his legs extended fully out, making them look like helicopter blades. The feet were currently hitting Latrelle with intense power and impressive speed. The last two kicks caused Latrelle to stumble back a little. She spit some blood out of her mouth and grinned devilishly. Milsap still remained in a handstand stance. Latrelle then darted towards Milsap and did a baseball slide, aiming for his head. The BBC prep waited until Latrelle was about less than six inches away from his head and did a back flip to avoid the attack. The ghetto prep gasped as she noticed she missed, but let out a scream as she noticed Milsap coming back down from the back flip. After that everything went black for Latrelle as Milsap landed onto of Latrelle's head with both of his feet. The impact from his feet landing on her head causing Latrelle to bite her tongue so hard, that blood immediately started to leak rapidly like a waterfall.
Bushido immediately rushed to ring to see if Latrelle was even conscious. Miraculously she was but however she was out for the count. Bushido held up Milsap's hand and declared him the victor by knockout.
"Latrelle!" Huey rushed to sparring ring to see his pupil looking lifeless like a rag doll.
"Damn…maybe I should have listened!" she slowly mumbled.
"Can you move?"
"A little bit…just set me up in the medical wing and I'll be good…tell my prep fam ova there to win it all!" she then passed out from exhaustion. Huey then picked her up bridal style and looked at Chad. "You're up, avenge Latrelle's loss."
"Chargin' Chad will do!" Chad saluted.
Milsap just remained silent as he waited Chad to enter his newly marked area. Chad stepped inside and felt a little nervous inside. The Capoeira fighter began to taunt his opponent by doing various flips, cartwheels and rolls. Chad just pound his fist together and signaled for Milsap to come towards him. Milsap chuckled and flipped over to walk on his hands again. Chad gulped as he saw Milsap was attempting to do the same thing that just happened to his fallen comrade. Once he was within striking distance, Milsap began to spin around again and perform his helicopter kick. Chad looked closely at the movements of the legs. Now all he had to do was time his moves right and…
"GOTCHA!" Chad yelled as he grabbed Milsap's left leg, causing the blonde-cornrow warrior to stop moving.
Chad then began to slowly spin around, while holding Milsap by the left ankle. With each full revolution, Chad increased his speed until the velocity from swinging Milsap around caused massive wind gusts to blow debris around in the dojo. Once Chad felt content with the speed, he released Milsap causing him to fly way outside of the ring, through a couple of walls and out to busy streets of Dowtown Woodcrest. Chad scratched the back of his head as he noticed the damage him and his teammates were racking up on the dojo. Bushido just sighed while the rest of Woodcrest Hills Preps jumped around in joy. The joy was short lived as the new contender, Barry entered the fighting area. Unlike the other BBC preps, this one wore a golden cloak and hood around over his head. The only facial features you could make out were his mysterious green eyes. Chad nearly pissed himself as he noticed the fighter slowly approaching him. Something about this guy creped everyone out, even the Billionaire Boys Club themselves.
"Prepare yourself." Barry mumbled as he got into a fighting stance.
"No, you PREPARE yourself!" Chad retorted also getting into a fighting stance.
Both preps charged at each other at the same time with one thing on their mind, victory. They both swung their fists at each other and knocked each in the face. Spit flew from their mouths as they quickly regained their composure. Chad then began to throw mean left and right hooks, only to have them easily blocked by Barry. Tired of playing defense, Barry elbowed Chad in the midsection and then kicked the weakened prep in the face twice. This caused Chad to fall to the ground. Once again playing the role as referee, Bushido entered the ring and began the countdown.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Chad hopped up and tried to regain his composure. Barry wasn't going to let this happen as he tackled Chad to the ground and began to punch away at the black prep's pretty boy face with a vengeance. Feeling his facial features getting chiseled into a new shape wasn't a good feeling. Chad then used both of his feet to press them against Barry's midsection and launch him from off top of him. This caused Barry to fly through the air as he gracefully landed like a cat on the mat.
"You're eliminated!" Bushido yelled.
"What? How?!" and that's when Barry noticed he was stepping on the OUT OF BOUNDS marker. "Damn…I admit defeat."
"UGH! You abysmal! Can't you knucklefucks do anything, right?" Bruno yelled, pulling his hair.
Meanwhile inside of Riley's Mazda RX-7...
"Alright Young Reezy…" Carmela said from the passenger's seat. "Spill it. Tell me about this Sunshine bitch and why she's on ya dick?"
"We have a good history together…" Riley said from the driver's seat.
"Have? As in you still are good today?" Marisol interfered.
"Shut it, Marisol." Carmela turned around to look her sister in the eyes. "This is between me and Riley."
"Alright…I'll just listen." Marisol pouted.
"But back to wut I was sayin' before I was SO rudely interrupted by some broad in the backseat." Riley quickly glanced back at Marisol, then focused back on the road. "Me and Sunny go way back to elementary school, and we been datin' ever since seventh grade."
"Uh huh." Carmela said in an annoyed tone. "Why does she still give you that lovey dovey look? Better yet…why the hell do you return it? You're just leadin' her on!"
"Because even though we broke up…she still like my best friend." Riley then noticed that Carmela's eyes were starting to become glassy. "I mean…ya know you're my everything though."
"Save it…" she hissed. "So that ho is yo best friend, still?"
"I mean yeah…she's still there for me despite all the shit I put her through."
"What shit you put her through?"
"Well first of all, her parents hate the hell outta me and never wanted us to date. But she still took the risk and disobeyed her parents to go out wit ya boy. Then there was the time some niggas was botherin her and shit and I acted like I couldn't claim her…at first I use to make it seem like she was just mah sideline ho, but after the day a nigga placed her hands on her." Riley's eyes were full of flames. "She became one of the most important things in mah life."
"She's loyal…that's good. I mean you act like I ain't though."
"You are…Mela, trust me you are." Riley waved his hands in defense. 'To an extend…' he thought in the back of his mind.
"So Riley, lemme ask you this…if me and you broke up right here, right now…would you go and hook up with that heifer?!" Carmela leaned over the armrest so she could be right in Riley's face.
"Uh…" Riley placed a finger on his chin. "I wouldn't hook up wit her…but I'd definitely go to her for some real talk advice."
"Right…" Carmela then sat back down in her seat. "I bet you would eventually though, huh?"
"Nah never…I mean I'd try to get back wit you cuz you're my baby mama…I don't want our kid to grow up without a mother or father figure around regularly."
"Oh…" Carmela started. "So this has to do with Kiyone, huh?"
"What the fuck you talkin about?" Riley asked in confusion.
"You just sayin' you'd stay wit me cuz I'm yo baby mama! If Kiyone wasn't born…you would leave me on the spot, eh?" Carmela growled.
"No! I mean I love you for you, not just Kiyone." Riley yelled back. His new adjusted tone earned everyone's ears in the car some loud cries from the youngest member of the Freeman family.
"See, now you made her cry, pendejos!" Marisol said as she tried to calm the newborn down.
"Well Carmela has no business questioning about my love for her and Sunny!"
"Hold on…I ain't never said you loved her still." Carmela said in a whisper. "You're still in love wit her! STOP THE CAR NOW!"
"What the hell? We in the middle of a freeway? I ain't stopping!" Riley said.
"I can't believe you, Riley…I really can't." Carmela croaked.
"What are you talkin about? I mean of course I still got love for Sunshine, but I'm not in love wit her!"
"Bullshit…" Carmela said in the verge of tears. "All the pieces of the puzzle are comin' together."
"Gurl, if you'd stop bein blinded by yo goddamn jealousy…ya ass would know that I'm only in love wit you! I mean c'mon…back in December you nearly got my ass dusted, but you became a human bullet shield and saved me!"
Carmela then started to weep loudly. Marisol placed a hand on her sister's shoulder and began to massage it softly.
"I hope you're not lying, Riley. If you truly have feelings for this Sunshine gurl still, let us know now." Marisol calmly spoke for her sister.
"I only love her as a friend now." Riley slowly said. 'At least I hope so…'
Meanwhile back at TARGET…
Jazmine had got everything on the list except for one thing, a movie. Sarah knew Huey good enough to know that he would love this movie and so would Tom and herself. The mulatto walked down the aisles of the MOVIES section, trying to find the movie circled on the list. Meanwhile not too many aisles away from her Caesar and Cindy were movie browsing themselves.
"Look what I found baby!" Caesar flashed a copy of 'Love and Basketball' in Cindy's face.
"That's my fav of all-time right thurr!" Cindy's slang dripped from her tongue. "Buy it for me, hunny!"
"How can I say no to have a face like that?" Caesar grinned. Cindy then bent over to tie her shoes, giving Caesar a full house-spread. "And an ass like dat!"
"What was that?" Cindy asked while still bending over.
"Oh nothing." Caesar said in an angelic tone. He then continued to browse through the collection of DVDs. Jazmine finally came on the same aisle as the two lovebirds and continued to tear the shelves down in search of the DVD on the shopping list.
"Lookin' fo this?" Cindy held up a copy of 'Spike Lee's Malcolm X.'
"Oh yes, thanks Cindy! Now we can leave…" Jazmine snatched the DVD and placed it into her shopping cart.
Now that Jazmine has obtained all the groceries for the perfect dinner, will Huey think the same of it? Also half of the BBC has been eliminated but perhaps the other half of their roster is the strongest foes. Last but not least, the Riley, Sunshine and Carmela triangle is getting a little intense. Who does Reezy truly care for? Find out in Chapter 8: Win or Go Home Part III.
A/N: Okay sorry if there are any mistakes…but I'm in a rush…GOTTA GO TO WORK NOW BUT BOONDOCKS FANFICTION UP, UP AND AWAAAY!
