"For?"Raven looked genuinely unsure of any reason Bianca may be thanking her.
"and I thought Daniels was dim,"Bianca rolled her eyes.
"Hey," I responded a little miffed.
"no offense."
"none taken," I half smiled.
"well Baxter it was you that convinced Loca to come talk to me right?"
"Well yeh guess so , yeh"
"Well that's it , see if Loca hadn't talked to me last night well I wouldn't have been bold enough, especially since like it's always me and loca and muffy who hang out but lately I've been noticing things about Loca I hadn't before. Ways I wasn't sure I should even. You guys ever notice Loca being sexy?"
Honestly no I never ever had but they were staring holes right into Rae and me,"very pretty of course, but I only have eyes for Rae," I smiled and Raven kissed me softly and grinned.
"Ahem," a sound came from where Bianca was sitting,"as I was saying..."
"oh yeh umm right,"
"well to get to the point, we've got these lil crushes on each other sooo,we're goin out now."Loca again reached up and took Bianca's hand in hers.
I caught myself thinking how sweet they looked together .Wait a minute Bianca and Loca and cute all in one sentence, yes hard to believe I know but it's almost as if they were only lacking love a little tenderness or something in their lives. They found it in each other.
"so Daniels,Baxter the thing is well hows about a truce or something I mean maybe that is part of why I gave you two the hardest time cuz like I dunno maybe I could see something in ya'll like maybe damn ya'll maybe I wanted to care about someone like have someone care about me, and I had been fighting like this thing ya know about Loca and whatever but like Muffy is my friend or something two. I mean I ain't feel like this bout muffy but guess like ya know how Loca and your boy eddie kinda had a lil something?"
"yeh" Rae and I look at each other knowingly remembering the "eddie/loca' which basically consisted of here whacking him in the arm and him wincing and pretty much praying not to get clobbered,Rae and I smiled nearly laughing at the thought of the funny ass look on Eddie's face.
"well anyway so I thought there was that and look the thing is thanks ok, for helping us get together I guess. know we like gotta fill muffy in but dont' know what she'll do I mean it's be the three of us."
"Well," I chimed in," it has always been me and Rae and Eddie as best friends but then he and Chantel started dating and Rae and I were ok and he thinks it's great about me and Raven."
"yeh but see, you each always had another person, like Muffy isn't with anyone else if ya get what 'm saying she may not be thrilled or..."
"well just talk to her, tell her you all are still friends just there is something special going on with you and Loca," Rae says quietly.
"Could you guys I mean like..hey great so what time should we come over, or would you rather meet out somewhere."
"what?" we said again in unison.
"you guys said you'll help right?"
"well yeh..but"
"so we'll be over around 7 then? you guys really are great thanks," Bianca blurted out before either of us could respond and they bounded toward the door.
"umm." I barely got out as they left.
"guess we'll have company tonight then," Rae said looking up at me still holding me tight.
"baby, I'm sorry I "
"shhh"
I leaned my forehead against hers and she softly kissed my lips,"it will be ok baby,we have until then together and then we help them out and we will have an awesome night just the two of us I promise you, k?"
"yeh," I kiss her softly again," I love you Raven Baxter."
"you KNOW I love you girl," she smiled so big and brightly , man looking in her eyes nothing else matters,she pulled me so close kissing me tenderly fingers moving through my hair,completely relaxed just loving.
