Living La Vida

Chapter Six

More Homies

By: Joanna

"Hello?" Jimena spoke into the phone.

"Jimena we're going to The Plaza." Sandra began. The Plaza was a teen dance club made for gangsters. They made it to try keep gangsters off the streets, and it was actually working a little. "Wanna go?"

"Uh…"

"Oh come on Jimena tienes que ir (you have to go) cause we haven't gone in a long time. And even tough cholas like you need to party sometimes," Sandra insisted. "Veto and his gang are going," she added.

"Fine," Jimena answered. She was right. She needed a break and the Plaza was a great place to just hang out.

"We'll be at your house a las ocho (at eight)," Sandra said. Jimena glanced at the clock, which read 7:25.

"Okay, see you then, bye."

"Adios (bye)," Jimena said and hung up. "Abuelita voy a salir (Grandma I'm going out)," Jimena shouted. Her grandmother was in the kitchen making enchiladas. Jimena's grandma knew about her being in a gang, but never told her anything. Jimena sometimes could hear her cry and pray at night for Jimena to leave the gang. However, although Jimena loved her abuelita there was no way she was going to leave her homies.

Jimena rummaged through her closet. She finally pulled out ultra low-rise hip-huggers and a silky silver halter-top. She got dressed quickly and pulled on some Doc Martens. She put on dark eye shadow, a little bit of concealer, and lip-gloss. She pulled the top-half of her hair back in a clip and rushed out of her room. Ten minutes later she was in Sandra's Camaro with her homies off to the Plaza.

"Hey there's these chicas, who have potential and want to be in a gang," Christina spoke up.

"I don't know…" Jimena thought about the idea. It would be good to have a few more homies around.

"Well they're meeting at the Plaza a las nueve (at nine)," Christina said before Jimena could finish.

"Hey it's a good idea, I mean they can help us con (with) the Bloods and stuff," Sandra spoke up.

"Sure what the hell," Jimena smiled.

"Where'd you get the earring?" Rebeca asked. Jimena forgot she had put on the new gold hoop earrings Veto had given her a week ago.

"Veto," she said simply and Rebeca grinned at her.

"So how long have you guys been going out for?" Rebeca asked.

"I don't know a couple months?" Jimena shrugged. "It's getting really serious," Jimena informed them.

"You guys seem in love or something," Sandra laughed.

"We are," Jimena smiled. She didn't really talk to them about Veto.

"I wish I were in love con alguen (with someone)," Christina said with a dreamy look on her face.

"You will one day," Rebeca gently nudged her shoulder, causing Christina to come back to reality. Jimena and her homies weren't like other gangs they were like a family who watched out for each other and could do some damage.

"Here we are," Sandra said parking the car and unlocking the doors.

"Let's party," Christina smiled.

"Shit," Rebeca muttered.

"Now what?" Christina frowned.

"Lety," Jimena answered and watched as Lety and her homies entered The Plaza.

"Let's just forget about them," Sandra said and looked back at something.

"What are you looking at?" Jimena asked and turned around. She grinned, "Roberto." She nodded. Roberto was a fine vato, he was also a player, but Sandra didn't seem to care.

"Hey," someone whispered into her ear. She quickly recognized Veto as he slipped his arms around her waist. She smiled and turned around to face him. He smiled down at her, his eyes lingering on her body and a feeling of 'want' spread across her body with an aching need. She pushed her body up against his and wrapped her arms around his neck as he traced kisses down her neck.

"Let's ditch this place and go back to my apartment," he smiled. He was giving her an open invitation and Jimena wanted this night to be theirs.

"Sure," she smiled as their lips met and his tongue traced over hers. "Let me tell them first," she said referring to her homies. He nodded.

"Hey chica," Sandra smiled as Roberto's arm slid around her waist.

"Hey I'm going, but can you set up a time and place for those chicas who wanna be in?" Jimena asked as she slipped her hands into her pockets.

"No problem," she smiled. "See you later."

Jimena turned and walked over to Veto's low-rider and got in. "Ready?" he asked. She nodded and they drove off into the dark moonless night to his apartment.
