9:51 pm

The tall, lanky, lightskin man threw the ball to his teammate making Mikey jump up, smacking it out the air, his shoes squeaking on the freshly waxed floor as he ran to the dunk the ball.

" LETSSS GOO." He yelled in victory, as he teammates ran up to him, hyping him up.

Me and Mikey's father stood up cheering and Mikey made his way over to us. I ran up wrapping my arms around his sweaty neck." I knew this was yo game."

10:05 pm

" Damn I can't wait to go to Texas Roadhouse." Destiny blurted and I agreed, I'm inlove with their rolls and cinnamon butter I be stuffing the rolls in my purse later.

Mikey came out in some gray nike shorts, and a plain white tee with black crocs, he sagged to the point where his PSD waistband was visible, and the tattoos covering his arms just added the finished touches. This man is fine, I forgot I was even staring at him and I started to bite my lip.

Mikey phone began to ring and he grabbed it off the coffee table, he scrunched his face up in confusion before he answering the phone.

" What happened?" I asked as soon as he hung up the phone.

" AJ, just got killed and his mama just passed away from a heartattack." He responded, running his hands over his face.

" Damn, double homicide." Destiny mumbled, making me nudge her shoulder.

" What?" Tymere jerked his back," Nah you lyin' son."

Mikey didn't respond, he just shook his head.

" This bullshit bro." Tymere complained before quickly standing to his feet and walking out the door, Destiny stood quickly, said her goodbyes and followed behind Mere.

Mikey plopped on the couch, slouching back just disassociating from the world.

12:59 am

I yawned, standing to my feet I stretched my whole body before checking the time." I oughta' get going, I got work tomorrow." I said glancing back at Mikey we were sitting in his living in complete silence, I just wanted to be there for him.

" Wait." He grabbed my hand, pulling me back down."  Can you stay? I need you, please?"

Seeing him like this hurt my heart like a mfkn, I hate to see him hurting but I have no sympathy for AJ, Karma came around and got you in yo ass.

" Yeah, I'll stay." I responded, resting my head on his shoulder.

" Thank you." He gave me a small smile." You wanna go hooping with me? Just for thirty minutes I know you tired, that shit just be keeping me sane."

1:15 am

No Flaws by King Von lowly played through the speaker.

" I ain't got no flaws, so please don't bring your hoe around me." I bumped my head to beat.

" Why'd you kiss me?" Mikey blurted, making me jerk my head back.

" I don't know, heat of the moment."

" So that give you the right to kiss me?"

" Shut yo fat nose having ass up, you obviously liked it, cause you kissed me back mr.piggy."

" You ain't have to do me like that." He chuckled." I see how it is, but I never said I didn't like it or want it."

" Stop talking then."

and guess what he did, he stopped talking.

2:01 am

He shot the ball one last time before grabbing it and holding it under his arm.

He passed me the ball." I bet you can't make that shot." He challenged, I was at the half-line and I sure ain't know how to play ball.

" Hell nah I can't."

" Lemme see yo jumper."

I nodded, showing him my jumper I looked like an discombobulated Jordan sign, he just shook his head laughing.

" Lemme help you." He said standing behind me, he help me with my hand form and taught me how to shoot the ball." Alright now shoot it." He said passing me the ball again, I dribbled it and shot, ' Swish!' The ball sounded as it went through the net.

" YAYY!" I yelled excitedly, running up to Mikey throwing my arms around his neck." That was all me! That shit went swish! I'm balling."

" Yeah, that was all you." He smiled, I pulled away from the hug quickly looking at my shoes avoiding any eye contact.

" Uht uht." He spoke softly lifting my face with one finger, my heart felt like it was about to pound out my chest and my knees suddenly got weak.

My cheeks turned red, we made eye contact before he kissed my lips, The kiss lasted a few moments, I instantly turned away hiding my bright red face.

" Come on." He grabbed my hand leading me out the gym." Let's go see what's open around this motherfucka."

4:21 pm.

" Who got you smiling like that?" Nino asked snapping me back into reality.

" Nobody." I said scratching the back of my head." Just happy."

"Mhm, okay cause you was just smiling at that piece of paper for about 10 minutes." He twisted his lips." So what's really up? And you glowing."

" it's nothing." I shook my head.

" You like Krabby Patties don't you squidward?"

" Bye Nino." I waved him off, cracking a smile." It's this dude, Nino he makes me feel like fantasia but we've only known each for three months."

" Motherfuckers can make you feel so much better in 3 months then mfcka that you spent a year with, all niggas not the same but you gotta be cautious." He placed his hand on my shoulder." If the dude you're interested in feel the same way about you, and it's meant to be, it'll be."
