I been working a lot these past few days it was just work, school, home. I've been looking at some 2 bedroom houses lately, I had a good amount of money saved. Sooner or later I should be out of that house but I was currently at work. I was about to get off in less than an hour.

*incoming call from MyFavGirl🫶🏾*

"Hello?" I answered.

"When you get off?" She asked.

"I'm like a few mins why wsp?" I said.

"We all chilling at my house if you trynna slide"

"Uh yea, I'll be over there in a little bit ."  I said hanging up the phone.

30 mins had passed and I was in my car eating. I stopped to get some food on the way over, I grabbed my food and drink as I got out the car. I walked up to the door when I was about to knock when Kane opened the door.

I looked up at him and smiled.

"Hii" I said and he let out a little laugh.

"Soon as I open da door and I see yo lil ass" he said grabbing my bag of food walking past me, and sat on the stairs.

"What you get us?" He asked and I closed the door sitting down next to him.

"Don't eat the nuggets those for my babies, but it's half a chicken sandwich in there." I replied he looked over a me.

"I can have it?" He asked and I nodded shrugging my shoulders. He sat next to me fucking that shit up I let out a light laugh.

"Damn we need to get you another one?" I asked while recording him. He looked at me and laughed.

"Hell yea, you finna want one too." He held up a blunt looking at me like he done already smoked like 5.

"C'mon" I took my shoe off sitting it down and setting my phone up on it recording us. He lit the blunt inhaling it a few times.

"You already know what to do?" He asked handing it to me.

"Yea, let's play 21 questions" I hit it a few times before passing it back.

"Go ahead" he hit it as I asked my question.

"Are you in a relationship?" I asked him as he handed it back.

"Nah...What's something you really want?" He said.

"Getting my house" I passed it back already feeling it kick in.

"We doing the whole thing?" I asked referring to the blunt.

"You damn right" he laughed and I shook my head.

"I ain't gone make it" I said looking at him trying to hand the blunt back to me.

"You not even hittin!" I said grabbing the blunt and He busted out laughing.

"I did you just had yo eyes closed" he said I inhaled it and blew it in his face.

"liar" I kept hitting it and I looked at him and he was just staring licking his lips.

"Come here you all they way over der like ima do sum" he said.

"You ain't gotta do it cause I will" I said to myself.

"Huh?" He asked I scooted over laying on his chest. I hit da blunt one mo time before passing it back. He put his arm around me rubbing my back. I sat up and looked at him putting my hands on his chest.

"this could be OUR thing likeee you come pick me up and we sit in the car smoking, listen to music, and talk. Omg that would be so dope like we could have deep conversations." I said looking up imaging it and he was just staring at me.

"You like that type of stuff?" He asked and I looked down at him.

"Mhm" i said as a light smile creeped up on my face. We stared at each other for a lil while until he grabbed my chin pulling me into a kiss.

Mind you they both high asf so..

I kissed him back till we heard everyone walking towards the door. I pulled away from the kiss and right after the door opened. They all came out dressed looking like there we're about to go somewhere.

"Where y'all finna go?" I asked.

"Trell throwing this party for his birthday and we finna go." Destiny said I looked at everyone and didn't see Kehlani.

"Kehlani not going?" I asked.

"She gone meet us der you wanna come?" She asked and I looked at her.

"Girl no I am not trynna have no hangover at work" i replied she waved me off.

"Ima let you slide on this one, but you coming with us next time" she said as they all walked to their cars.

"I gotchu" I said then they left I got up and opened the door and looked at Kane.

"Movie?" I asked and nodded as he got up. We walked in the house and I took my shoes off sitting on the couch. I looked for a movie as he handed KayKay and Asia their food.

I found a movie and left it on the screen waiting for him so I could push play. He came in the living room and I patted the spot next to me, He smiled and sat down.

"How come you didn't go to the party?" I asked out of curiosity looking at him.

"I just ain't want to" he shrugged off and I started the movie. Not to long after KayKay and Asia ran upstairs yelling.

"We finished" they said as they went to Asia's room. I watched as they went upstairs i laid back on his chest watching the movie. He had his arm propped on the couch.

"Keep this up you might actually have a chance" I said and smirked waiting on his response.

"We gone see" he said blankly.

Progress...
