Chapter 16

"Well hey there cutie pie." Mr. Freeman said smiling as Sophie walked inside.

"Whoa it's hot in here." Sophie said fanning herself.

"Yea the air conditioner is broke and I'm waitin for the mechanic. Oh well, Huey's upstairs now remember no doin nothing you're not supposed to." He said giving her a look.

Sophie blushed but nodded her head. "Um is Riley here?" she asked.

"No he's not I told dat boy not to leave but he said he wanted to see Cindy. When he get back he getting dis ass whompin!" granddad said angrily.

Sophie giggled and started to walk upstairs. "HUEY! HUEY!" she yelled.

"Why are you yelling?" he asked coming out of his room.

"Same reason why you're always frowning. Anyway let's go."Sophie said turning around to go back downstairs,

"We're doing it in my room." He said turning around and walking back inside. She rolled her eyes but followed him inside and shut the door behind her. She threw her backpack down as all her homework fell out.

"Why is your homework incomplete?" Huey asked.

"Oh, Well I hate science I really don't understand it that well so I'm going to see what the internet tells me." She said looking down at her papers.

Huey shrugged his shoulders. "Alright so back to the protest who all do you have signed up?" he asked.

"Um one sec…." Sophie said bending down to pick find her petition. "Wow its hot in here." She said throwing off her hoodie, she had on a black tank top underneath.

Huey turned around and looked right at her butt. He tried not to but it was just there and somehow his eyes kept traveling back there. "Whoa." He thought.

Huey's POV:

Whenever Riley had pointed out girls butts I would look but I would never actually think about it, it was dumb to think of girls like that. But here I sat staring straight at Sophie's butt thinking probably every bad thought you could possible think. I looked away but kept glancing back without trying to look obvious. It was so big and round, I wonder if I touched it would she…..Then I got in control of myself.

"Did you find it yet?" I asked impatiently.

"Hold on ok? My backpack's not very neat thanks to Natasha." She said annoyed still searching.

"What does Natasha have to do with your backpack?" I asked confused.

"Well.' She said finally standing up. "My sister loves pranks but even more to play them on me. So she disorganized everything in my backpack." She explained handing me the petition forms.

I took them and looked them over. We had a pretty descent amount of people. "Ok poster's we need posters.' I said sitting on my bed. She followed and sat near me. I shifted a little away I didn't really like being near people.

"Oh sorry." She said noticing me and scooting away and giving an apologetic smile.

"It's fine." I said. I looked over at her as she started making the posters. Her eyes were in such deep concentration as she wrote each letter. Suddenly my eyes started to travel down her whole body, wow she was hot. I silently thanked granddad for waiting to fix the heat, and Riley for not being here and possibly ruining something before getting to work.

Sophie's POV:

Was it me or can Huey not keep his eyes off of me. You'd think it would be weird but they way he was staring at me made me feel tingly. No, no, no I don't need to start something I know I'm not going to be able to finish. I looked over at Huey who was surprisingly staring at me.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Huh oh nothing." He said looking away embarrassed.

I blushed but continued to work on the posters. "Aren't you hot?" I asked looking at him. He was wearing a thermal sweater.

He looked down at what he was wearing. "Nope." He said.

I shrugged my shoulders and got back to work. Soon it seemed like the heat went up 5 degrees. I stopped working on the posters. "I'm thirsty can we stop for a while?" I asked.

He looked down at our progress. "I suppose a few minutes wouldn't kill anyone." He said.

I rolled my eyes. "I was going to get up either way it was." I said walking out.

"No you wouldn't." he said simply.

"Oh yea why not?" I challenged crossing my arms.

"You don't have a ride and you don't have money." He said holding up his wad of cash.

"Fuck you." I said.

We walked to a nearby Speedway and bought a drink. I got a lime slushy and he settled with water. I shook my head as we walked inside his room. "You could have gotten water at home." I said.

"And you could've bought your own drink." He shot back.

"Ok, ok but come on taste it I bet you'll like it." I said shoving it in his face.

He pushed it away. "I don't drink those."

"Try it." I said shoving it to him again.

"No." he said shoving it away again.

"Huey…"

"NO!" He said but this time he shoved it so hard it hit me in the eye.

"OW!" I yelled.

"I'm sorry. Here let me look at it." He said removing my hand and looking in my eyes.

For a moment I didn't even notice how close we were when I did I started to blush. I knew my eyes were sparkling.

"Good news nothing's wrong, Bad news that slushy you were drinking could possibly kill you." He teased.

"Wow Huey Freeman got jokes." I said giggling. I looked over at his wine colored eyes they were sparkling. I leaned forward a little inching closer and closer to his mouth he stared at me surprise. "Um," I said pushing him away. "We should probably get back to work."

He nodded and we sat down together. This time I noticed he didn't move away. "So have you spoken to Jazmine?" I asked and mentally reminding myself that I had a friend who was in love with this boy.

"Can we not talk about her?" Huey asked annoyed.

I decided to drop it for now. The temperature was only getting hotter I noticed Huey was starting to sweat. "Just take off the shirt!" I yelled annoyed after seeing him wipe his forehead for the 10th time.

He looked at me confused then he started smirking and I realized what I said, I felt myself blush again. "What is up with that?" I thought. I looked at Huey who kept raising the water to his lips and drinking it. I don't know why but I ripped the water from him as water fell from his mouth.

"What the hell?" he asked.

"I'm not giving it back to you until you try my slushy." I said scooting the slushy towards him.

He looked annoyed. "I'm not trying that poison." He said reaching for his drink I snatched it back as water dripped out a little bit.

"Now." I said smirking.

"Fine." He said picking up my slushy. He brought it an inch away from his lips then he turned and threw my slushy on me.

"AAHHH!" I yelled as the cold slushy hit my body. He then tackled me and all of the water splashed out on him but he still struggled to grab the bottle.

I started to laugh as we struggled to keep a hold of the bottle. I stood up and raced to the bed and he tackled me again. I threw the bottle away from him but he just sat there on top of me. We both sat there trying to calm our hearts down and looking into each other's eyes. Ok before I say this let me say I don't have feeling for Huey (at least I don't think I do but I'm only a girl). I leaned forward and pulled Huey into a deep kiss.

Huey looked at Sophie surprised then he started to kiss her back, it was electrifying. The way they kissed was different from when he and Jazmine kissed, when he kissed Jazmine it was like their tongues were trying to fight but Jazmine never really fought back, with Sophie it was like a war. First it was smooth and easy then as Huey started to fight (expecting to win) Sophie started to fight back Huey didn't know why but it made him want to kiss her more. Huey felt as Sophie raised her leg and wrapped it around his waist. They pulled away and Sophie smirked. This is it she was kissing Huey and boy did it feel good. Sophie rolled over until she was on top of him then he rolled over so he was on top of her this went on for a while until they fell of the bed. Sophie did a soft moan as she hit the ground but didn't break away from the kiss. Huey ran his hand up the back of her shirt as she ripped off his shirt revealing a six pack. She chuckled a little before kissing him again. They pulled away from each other; both of their eyes were twinkling. "So this is what kissing Huey is like, whoa Jazmine doesn't know what she had….. Oh my gosh! JAZMINE!" Sophie pushed away from Huey who looked at her confused then his eyes went big in surprise as he realized what was going on. They quickly pushed far away from each other.

"Huey I'm so sorry." Sophie said in such a quiet voice Huey could barley her.

He looked at her with one raised eyebrow. "For what?" he asked.

Sophie looked at him confused. "For what just happened, I did not mean for that to happen."

Huey shook his head. "It's as much my fault as it is yours. I say we forget it and get back to work." Huey said turning back to the posters.

Sophie looked at him embarrassed. "I'd rather not. Look Huey I'll come by tomorrow to work on it some more." Sophie said walking over to the door. "I'm sorry Huey." She squeaked before slipping out the door.

Huey sat there frustrated as he thought over everything. Why had Sophie kissed him and why the hell did he kiss her back? He thought about what he said to Riley about having self control. Maybe he did have self control when it came to Cindy or Natasha or even Jazmine but when it came to Sophie it seemed like all his self control was washed away. He did enjoy the kiss and wished it had lasted longer and even for a moment he had completely forgotten about the whole thing with Jazmine. Jazmine, he couldn't help himself from thinking about her. He sighed and ran his hand through his afro, things were just getting more and more complicated and he didn't have the slightest idea how to fix it.

Sophie ran down the stairs her cheeks still red. She stopped when she got to the bottom to catch her breath. Had all of that really just happened? Had she really just kissed her best friend ex and nearly had... she shook her head. How could she do that to Jazmine weren't they suppose to be best friends? Sophie didn't have the slightest idea on how to answer these questions. Sophie sat there at the bottom of the steps to think about everything. She kinda wished that she never broke away from the kiss it was the most electrifying kiss ever filled with so much emotion that they both needed to let out. Sophie didn't even notice that Riley had walked in.

"Aye granddad around?" Riley whispered suspiciously looking around.

"Huh oh no he left I think." Sophie mumbled not all her attention on Riley.

"Whatchu doin down here I thought you and Huey was workin on some stuff or something." Riley said.

Sophie felt her cheeks turn beet red. "Um yea I have to go tell Huey I'll see him tomorrow bye!" Sophie said hurriedly as she raced out the door.

Riley looked at her as she left. Something was definitely up and he was gonna find out.

"There you are!" Granddad yelled already taking off his belt. "Didn't I tell you not to leave the house?" he made a grab at Riley who dodge it and started to run.

Yea he would find out what was going on as soon as he tired out granddad. "Old ass nigga!" Riley yelled as he ran through the house snickering.
