Chapter 11: Malik, Malik, Malik


{{{Hazel}}}

"Tone, are you sure it's alright if I hang with you here?" I asked. Tony rolled his eyes and closed the door behind him.

"Yeah. Raquel's in Lenox and Malik's sleeping." Tony said. He turned on the living room light and I sat down on the couch.

"Hazel, it's already March 20th." He said, sitting down next to me.

"Um, and?" I asked nervously, pretending not to know what he meant.

"That means we been going out for almost a month. When can we bring it out?" Tony asked.

I looked at him. "Tony...Raquel's my best friend. I don't wanna ruin my friendship over a relationship."

"So...you mean, I'm not important?" Tony asked, wrapping his braids in a wave cap.

"No! I just mean...Raquel is always there for me and I don't wanna ruin that friendship. I hate to say it, but she's a way better best friend than Paige." I replied.

"Fine. But I'm only going to wait a little longer." Tony said.

He leaned in a we shared a kiss.

"Tony...Hazel?" Eight year old Malik said, shocked.

"Malik." Tony pulled back away from me and brushed himself off. "Ain't you supposed to be in bed?"

Malik ignored the question. "Does Raquel know y'all are dating?"

Me and Tony stayed silent.

Malik's eyes got wide. "She doesn't!"

Now I know that Malik and Raquel are close. But I didn't know if he would tell her or not...

Would he?
