A/N: first off I'd like to say I'm sooooo sorry for taking long to update for those of you who read this, especially for leaving the story hanging like I did. So I've made up a list of excuses and you guys can pick which one is most appealing to you: a) I was hit by a meteor, b) I finally got my computer working again, c) school has me hassled with all this damn homework. I'd like to thank you guys for those few reviews, favorites, and follows I got, they might not be a lot but they mean something to me! I've also noticed that some people have favorited and followed me as an author and I'm like what the hell is wrong with ya'll. Lol I'm totally kidding you guys made me feel special :). Enough of this long ass author's note though.

DISCLAIMER: You guys already know the drill.


Chapter 4

Jazmine and Huey sat on the bed in one of Aunt Cookie's spare bedrooms alone, everybody knew they had a lot of stuff to sort out. Jazmine just sat there looking at her lap, she definitely didn't want to see the look on Huey's face at the moment.

"Jazmine," he said.

She flinched at hearing her name come out of his mouth, although she did have to admit she missed hearing his voice. Huey, who saw her flinch slowly inhaled and exhaled trying to think of what to say next.

"Are you just going to sit there and not say anything? I'm not mad at you Jazmine please talk to me… look at me."

Jazmine looked up at him and back down immediately, wishing she hadn't. All she saw was sadness in his eyes. At this point she started to break down and cry. She flung her arms around his neck and cried on his shoulder, she noticed that Huey didn't hug her back and this realization made her cry harder.

Huey groaned out loud, growing frustrated. "Have you not changed at all since you left? God Jazmine will you stop crying? Pull yourself together," he said with irritation in his voice.

Jazmine trying to compose herself got up and started pacing in front of the bed, wringing her hands trying to calm herself down. She paced until the tears finally stopped coming and the noises coming out of her were reduced to sniffles. Huey sighed, got up and walked over to her.

Jazmine had to keep looking up as he got closer to her, he was at least a head taller than her with her being 5'5. Huey stopped once he was close to her, but not close enough to touch her, he didn't want to scare her again.

"You owe me an explanation Jazmine, I wanna know why you left things the way you did, why you didn't tell me you were leaving, and why the hell you didn't think I was worth a goodbye when you did," Huey said with a look on his face that Jazmine could only describe as disappointment and hurt.

Jazmine opened her mouth to speak, but not knowing what to say shut it and looked away. Huey at this point had had enough of the situation, if she didn't want to talk to him then fine, he wasn't going to make her. He started walking towards the door, feeling a wave of sadness overcome him. Just as he had his hand on the door knob he heard her speak.

"I left things the way I did because I didn't know what to say to you."

He turned around and looked at her as she continued talking while looking down at her hands. "I left things the way they were because there was no way I could sum up in words what you meant to me, there were no words that could ever be good enough that would express how much your friendship meant to me."

Seeing that he wasn't interrupting her she continued, "I was just as shocked about the divorce as the rest of you, I was shocked that it had come so suddenly. I only had a day to pack up all of my shit and get out of Woodcrest, do you know how hard that was? To just drop your life and leave behind all the memories? The people that meant the most to you?" she recalled now growing angry.

He started walking towards her again, but she couldn't stop talking, it was like she was on a roll now. "I don't want you to think you were never worth a goodbye Huey, because you were worth so much more than that, I couldn't bring myself to say goodbye to you. I guess that was selfish of me, I knew if I said what I needed to it would feel like finally putting an end to our friendship."

"But didn't you put an end to the friendship though?" Huey asked now standing in front of her again. "I mean all of this could've been avoided if you just told me you were leaving. There's video chatting, you could've come back to visit and so many more options."

"I didn't think of it like that, I just thought of the moment when I would have to tell you I was leaving and how it would hurt me to do that," Jazmine replied now looking up from her hands to look him in the eyes.

Huey just stared down at her not saying anything, his wine colored eyes boring into her emerald ones. Jazmine saw him slightly move, then hesitate and finally put his arms around her in a hug. Jazmine buried her face in his shoulder while she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I'm so sorry Huey, please forgive me," she mumbled from his shoulder.

"It's ok Jazmine I forgive you, I'm just happy that we worked this out," he replied.

He heard a sniffle and looked at her as she looked at him with slightly watery eyes. He gave her a small smile and said, "And I'm happy not much has changed, you still cry a lot."

Jazmine giggled at this and gave him a small peck on his cheek. She saw Huey tense up and before she knew it he had given her a quick peck on the lips. She pulled back and she could tell he was as shocked as she was because his eyes were wide and his face looked scared at what her reaction would be.

They both stared at each other for another ten seconds before attacking each others lips viciously, Jazmine allowing entrance of Huey's tongue into her mouth.

Huey backed Jazmine into a wall still kissing her and held on tightly to her waist while Jazmine had her arms wrapped around his neck while tightening her grip on him, trying to get him closer.

Huey stopped kissing her lips and trailed down to her neck giving her small kisses and nibbles. His big hands reached down to her ass and gave it a firm squeeze causing Jazmine to gasp, he then hauled her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist.

Things were starting to get hot for the both of them. Jazmine was trying to suppress the moan that she wanted to let out, and she did let it out once he started grinding their cores together.

"Huey," she said breathily, "Huey I missed you so much."

Huey grunted into her neck, loving the feeling of her body pressed so closely against his. He went back to her lips, kissing her passionately, "I missed you too Jaz, more than you'd ever know," he said once he broke off the kiss.

She pulled his face in again and continued kissing him. One of his hands crept up her thigh, sliding his fingers on her hips and under her shirt onto her stomach. His hand started to inch its way up until it brushed against her breasts through her lace bra. Jazmine's breath caught in her throat as he touched her, his hands warm and rough. They broke their kiss while Huey reached to pull up the hem her shirt and –

Jazmine sat up in bed with a gasp, a light coat of sweat on her body. She looked over at the clock next to her bed, it read 3:12 AM. She put her hands on her face and let out a frustrated groan. What she had just dreamt of would've been a way better outcome than what had actually happened.

She laid back down on her bed, slightly embarrassed at what she'd dreamt of. Regardless of it being a dream she couldn't deny that she had liked what Huey was doing to her, the thought made her cheeks redden.

She needed something to distract her of those thoughts of Huey. She reached for her iPod from the bedside drawer and put in her earphones, deciding on Didn't Cha Know by Erykah Badu. She stared at the ceiling till sleep overcame her again.


Huey picked up Aunt Cookie's phone and dialed Ceaser. He sat on one of the beds in Aunt Cookie's guest room while he waited for the ringing to stop and for Ceeze to pick up the phone.

"Yo, who's this?" answered the dred head.

"Hey Ceeze, its Huey I was just calli – "

"Aw shit!" Ceaser yelled on the phone causing Huey to wince and pull it away from his ear, "don't tell me you got around to talking to Jaz already!"

Huey sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Not exactly," he replied.

"Well then, what happened?" asked Ceaser.

"She kinda… freaked out. And had a mini panic attack," Huey said

Ceaser started cracking up once hearing what Huey said, "Word? What the hell did you do to her man?" he asked once he caught his breath.

"I didn't do anything!" Huey yelled into the phone, "I just looked at her and she totally started freaking out, Aunt Cookie tried to get her to calm down but she just bolted out of the house."

Ceaser found this extremely funny and couldn't contain himself as he howled with laughter on the phone, Huey could just imagine how he looked with his face all scrunched up with tears running down his cheeks while he just sat in Aunt Cookie's guest room sporting nothing but a scowl.

"Damn Huey, I see you playa! Puberty must've done you real good," Ceaser teased, "you actually just look at the girl and she goes into hysterics," he said as he started laughing again.

Huey had a deadpan face while Ceaser laughed on the phone, waiting for him to be quiet. "You done?" he asked once Ceeze stopped laughing.

"Yeah, yeah sorry man. So what are you planning to do about this?" Ceaser asked.

"I guess ima have to try to talk to her tomorrow, Aunt Cookie said she's throwing a birthday celebration here at the house and Jazmine is supposed to be coming," Huey replied.

"Cool, let me know how that goes… aye since I got you on the phone, let me ask you something. Did she fill out nicely?" Ceaser asked in an amused tone.

Huey rolled his eyes as he could clearly imagine the grin on Ceaser's face.

"Night Ceeze," was all he replied as he hung up.

Huey looked around the room and sighed. He got up started to get into his pajamas which consisted of sweat pants and no shirt.

He was about to pull the bedspread off the bed when he heard the door open. He mentally groaned at the fact that he forgot he would be sharing this room with Riley while on their visit.

"Ewwwww, nigga you gay. Put a shirt on," Riley said as he walked in the room.

"Shut the hell up Riley, and turn off the light I'm going to sleep," Huey said getting in the bed and pulling the covers over him.

"Sleep? Aw hell nah this nigga talkin' about sleep and it's our first night back in Chi Town. Well you could sleep I'm about to go out for a late night walk." Riley said while throwing on a fresh t-shirt and going to the window and opening it, getting ready to climb out.

Huey sat up in bed and watched as his brother started to climb out the window. He sighed and said with a scowl, "Riley, if your dumbass goes into the holding cell tonight don't even think about calling me because ima be sleeping."

Riley cackled at that with his arms on the window sill to hold him up.

"No snitches," he replied while smirking, and with that he was gone.

Huey laid back in bed and thought about what had happened that night. He really didn't think Jazmine would get that upset with him being there. He had been planning on giving her the cold shoulder once he saw her but that changed when he actually did see her.

He couldn't believe he had forgot how pretty she was, and when he saw her all scared and flustered it instantly reminded him of her as a little girl, so innocent.

Huey shook his head and turned so he was facing the open window. He looked out into the city until he felt his eyes get heavy and let himself drift off into sleep.
