Ignore typos I ain't fixing shit fr

June 19th

"Y'all need to stop fighting eachother." Laylani mumbled as she picked Xander's shattered phone off the floor. She came to visit for a few days and it'd been ridiculously hectic.

"We good now, that was an hour ago." Jaylani mumbled, her arms resting around his neck as she dangled from his back.

"An ho- ok whatever works for y'all."

"Hurry up." She said impatiently as Xander pulled the bag of cotton candy open and moved her off of his back and in between in legs on the couch. Nasir was out for a few more days so they were cutting up.

He put a piece in her mouth and she shivered, being the sugar junkie she is.

"Fuckin crackhead."

"You want some?"

"Ion eat that. It look like it'll make my teeth rot." He shook his head and she sucked her teeth.

Jaylani turned around and grabbed his face, kissing him knowing he hated sweets. People would usually complain about kisses when the other person had bad breath but he was annoyed about the sugary cotton candy taste on her lips.

He kissed her back though.

"Ew child pornography." Laylani cringed and walked upstairs, wanting to get away from them.

It was 3 in the morning and they were up and energetic like it was 2pm.

"Where's Tay?"

"Somewhere he need to stay."

"Girl bye where he at?"

"I don't fuckin know, stop asking me that shit. If I knew I'd be asleep, shut up." Laylani waddled up the steps angrily and her sisters wyes got wide, not used to her snapping.

"You t-"

"Aye somebody help me! My charger broke!" Tez burst through the front door, catching everyone off guard.

"Boy get gon, walking in my friend house like somebody know you." Oli said with an eye roll.

"You always got somebody in here. Damn this a foster home or sum?" Tez asked, sitting next to Oli, Jaylanis long time friend who'd just moved back to town.

"You do realize you-"

"Shut the fuck up!"

"Don't be raising yo voice at me!"

"My dick hang over my balls on soft bitch I'll talk to you how I want." Tez slapped the back of Oli's head and they began fighting, making Jaylani and Xander roll their eyes.

"So childish."

"Can y'all shut the fuck up?!" Laylani yelled from upstairs, making everybody flinch.

"What's wrong with her?"

"Tay left last night and ain't come home. He just busy, it's fine."

June 20th

Laylani was so annoyed about not knowing where Taylin was that she just went back to their apartment and said fuck visiting. She couldn't enjoy herself because she was worried about him.

While she was worried about him her mom was worried about her. Pregnancy stress was not a joke, especially with this being her 8th month and last trimester.

She felt like she'd burst at any moment and him not answering the phone or bothering to communicate had her head hurting.

Naomi has went back with her, not wanting her to travel or her own. She didn't know what they had going on and she didn't care as long as her daughter could give birth and not be in distress.

"You eat?" Naomi asked, sliding a plate in front of her daughter, getting a flat bored look in return.

"Not hungry." She looked down at her phone to check for a notification and felt her heart pang in disappointment before her mother snatched it out of her hand.

"You worried about the wrong damn thing. You're body is small meaning there's a chance of premature birth, the last thing you need to do is worry about is a grown ass man. Fuck him, have this baby." Naomi said angrily, grabbing her daughters face hoping to talk some sense into her.

"Mommy I know. I know. I just don't un-"

"Have this baby. Now eat." Naomi felt her eyes water when she saw the sad and disappointed look on her daughters face.

"Okay." Laylani wiped her tears and ate as instructed, feeling sick to her stomach about all of it.

After a few minutes of them sitting quietly she looked over at her mom quickly, needing to be clear.

"Don't tell dad."

"I won't." She guaranteed, holding her daughters hand.

"I'm going to bed." Laylani got up and walked to their room, growing sick to her stomach again. She turned the TV on and fell asleep on her side of the bed, feeling her mom watch her from the doorway.

She felt like she'd been asleep for 30 minutes although it'd been multiple hours when she heard the shower running. The girl laid in bed figuring it was Naomi until she felt the bed sink in, followed by the familiar smell she was used to sleeping next to.

He always showered with the lemon shower gel from Bath and Body works after she bought it for him around Christmas.

Before she could even open her eyes and speak to him she sat up and hit him in his face, catching him off guard.

Laylani felt him grab her hand gently, growing more furious at his calm demeanor.

"Don't to-" She was about to snap on him until she saw tears running down his face for the 3rd time since they met.

"She didn't show up after she said she wanted to talk to me again. When we went back to Atlanta I dropped by to speak to her and all of her stuff was gone." He said lowly, letting her hand go.

Laylani just listened, pushing his hair out of his face as he spoke. She wanted to be mad but he looked so hurt in attempt to explain how his mother abandoned him.. again.

"I called her but she didn't answer. When I looked around all of her stuff was in garbage bags and she wasn't there. Or I thought she wasn't."

"Finish." Laylani held his face gently, wiping his cheek with her other hand as he struggled to form words.

"I heard shuffling and went to her room and she was sitting on her balcony swinging her feet, of course I panicked but I kept calm because I didn't want her to

f-fall. I tried talking to her but she wasn't hearing me, she wasn't hearin- I didn't know what to do, she-"

She held him in a tight hug and he rambled, trying to explain himself.

"Bethany jumped. I called the ambulance but she'd broken her spine and had head trauma, she'd just moved to the 3rd floor.. I stayed at the hospital with Iman while he tried fighting me for pulling the plug. She was in a coma with no brain activity so it's not like she'd ever recover.."

Taylin calmed down and felt the bricks on his shoulders get lighter.

"I didn't feel much at the moment so it was an easy decision. Of course it wasn't for him because he grew up with a mom and I didn't..."

"But it's hitting me harder than I expected. I'm sorry I didn't call... If I'd talked to you I would've completely neglected it and found comfort in you, deciding to be blind to it all. It's okay if you're upset."

"How's Iman?" She asked, making him laugh humorlessly.

"He said he hated me and to never talk to him again, I don't care though." Taylin shrugged, feeling more upset than he let on.

"You didn't do anything wrong, everyone dies and there's always the hard decisions when they do.."

"When I went to grab her she told me she hated me.. then she tipped over the edge.."

Bethany felt spite towards Taylin for unknown reasons. She didn't even know why she hated him.

He thought there was an opportunity for them to connect or reconcile but no, she felt so much disdain for him that she reminded him before killing herself in front of him.

And that hurt the most.

"I love you." Laylani said softly, comforting him as he shamefully mourned his mother, wishing he'd never gotten his hopes up from the beginning.

"I love you too." He wiped his eyes and got up to turn the light on after suddenly remembering something. There were more important things to dwell on.

He didn't want to be sad about her dying, she didn't even care about him. So he'd shove it to the back of his mind and try not to acknowledge it.

"What are you doing?"

"While you were asleep. I've been home for 4 hours.. don't touch the walls.." he dragged her out of bed and into the room down from theirs with the light off.

He flipped the switch on and she looked around, seeing a crib and other baby toys placed neatly in certain parts of the room. The walls were pastel yellow and there was a bed next to the crib incase they felt like sleeping in there.

"It's so cute." Laylani got on her tippy toes to kiss him and he smiled softly, moving his arms around her waist.

June 23rd

"When you gon let me fuck?" Tez asked Oli as they walked off Jaylanis front step, making her suck her testh and punch him in the chest.

"Boy get out my face, better chill with that shit."

"Nah warm up."

"Leave me alone.. stupid ass lil boy."

"I can get real big." Tez heard the front door close as Laylani gagged from inside.

"Your friend is a damn menace." Laylani said as she waddled back inside and past Xander.

"Mhm."

"Can I have some?" She turned around quickly when she saw the large slice of pizza in his hand and he frowned.

"How I'm supposed to share one big slice?"

"I just want a bite."

"Ion wanna eat off you..."

"Awww stop being mean Xander." She walked over to him and gave him the puppy dog eyes but didn't get a reaction because he was mean as hell, just like her boyfriend.

"I'm not being mean. I'm just saying, you don't know where my mouth been but I know where yours been and I'm not wid it." He said nonchalantly, making her roll her eyes.

"Your haircut look so clean, Jaylani a lucky girl." She said sweetly, touching his waves.

"Forreal? Thank you, you want this?" He rubbed his head with a grin before handing her the large slice of pizza.

"Thank you, bye." She snatched it out of his hand and he glared at her as Tay stared out of the corner of his eye.

"Tell her to give it back or I'm ta- fuck!" Xander felt a sharp pain in his arm and looked down, seeing a slim needle stabbed into his bicep.

"You okay?" Tay asked with fake concern, pulling it out and poking him with it again but in a different spot.

"Okay damn stop!"

"When you get facial hair?" He looked at Xander who had a shadow on his upper lip, there was no hair but you could tell he was capable of growing it. He preferred shaving.

"I don't know like last month." He said, making Taylins face scrunch up.

"You.. mmm?" Taylin looked at him with raised eyebrows knowing the boy would get it.

"Yeah." Xander smirked as they exchanged a look just before Jaylani came downstairs with her dog.

"I need attention. Come upstairs with me." She said bluntly, sitting on the rails of the left stair case with Kiwi in her hand.

Xander mugged her and scoffed before getting up doing so what she said anyways.

"You gon watch your tongue, get that shit snatched out."

"I need to get me a new nigga that ain't so violent.."

"Keep on moe." He said nonchalantly.

"This why you blocked now.."

"Fuck you block me for?"

"This.." She pulled out her phone and went to their messages, seeing he spammed her after she told him to leave her alone.

"Unblock me, Ian mean it." He grabbed her phone and unblocked himself, deciding to keep it and go through it.

"Don't go through it and get your feelings hurt.." she said under her breathe, making him laugh humorlessly.

"Quit playin, for I really start acting crazy." Xander said seriously, going through her and Oli's messages because that's where the interesting shit be.

It was a whole bunch of nothing, just random memes. He got bored and went to her photos, seeing a bunch of pictures of them.

She got bored and went through his phone as well, not seeing much because he was never on it. His photos were empty so she went to Snapchat and sucked her teeth, seeing nothing there too.

"What's your my eyes only password?"

"Why?"

"Cause I wanna know, you got some dick in here or sum? Like damn just answer."

"1092"

She grinned and entered his my eyes only, noticing him get up and walk out of the room quickly. It was nothing but videos he'd taken of her or them. Her gallery had pictures and he had all the silly videos that he'd never admit to keeping.

"Aww come here." Jaylani dragged him out of her bathroom and back to her bed, struggling to pull him.

"Stop." He turned his head and she jumped up, kissing all over his face playfully as he held her legs so she wouldnt fall.

Jaylani felt him lay back on her bed and laughed at the flustered look on his face.

"Boy you had me scared I thought you was taking pictures of yo lil thang." She gave him his phone back and laughed when he cut his eyes at her.

"I don't got naked pictures of nobody in my gallery. I haven't even seen a titty in 8 months." He said nonchalantly, not bothered by his inactive sex life. He was 16, he understood that not everybody was a fast ass like him.

"But you were messing with Erin in January."

"I only let her give me head. If head counts as messing with somebody then shit I messed with all yo friends." He said honestly, feeling her punch his chest.

"Amariah?"

"No that bitch ugly I wouldn't be able to focus on the task at hand."

"You make my eyelashes hurt." Jaylani laid her head on his chest and looked at herself in his camera. He looked down and smiled the same time she did, making both of them laugh.

"Move." Xander cut his eyes at her when she continued looking through his my eyes only. She got up and ran to her window to look just a little bit more before he stood up and ended her fun.

"Wait-"

"Get away from the window dumb ass you ain't got no pants on." He laughed and pointed down, staring at her ass on accident.

"Oh shit." She moved away quickly and he held a lighter to the cloth by her hip, making her jump again.

"You not grown. Need to start wearing them lil fruit of gloom shits with the cherries and watermelons on em."

"Leave me alone, and it's fruit of the loom stupid."

He just shrugged and ignored the green light in his head telling him she was okay with him touching her butt. He just couldn't do it, if he did he'd get horny, and a horny Xander was an unhappy, mean, impatient, and difficult Xander.

"You good?"

"Ye- just put some pants on."

Laylani and Tay sat in bed watching TV after flying back home. He tried talking to Iman while he was there but he couldn't find him and Aaron didn't know where he was either.

Since their mom was dead and their father was an off the grid drug dealer he really had no one to stay with. He'd been at his friends house and that's where he'd stay until CPS decided they didn't care about him anymore and would stop trying to put him in foster care.

"I don't care, you disrespectful as fuck and petty. Bitch you too old to be acting like a child because I pissed you off, fuck you." Laylani said nonchalantly, feeling her baby kick.

"Fuck you too, then hell. You about to be a mother and you don't even know how to act yourself, get out my face."

"Okay cool, go be with that bitch since you like defending her."

"She's an intern, fuck you want me to do? I work with her, whatever she got for me ion got for her so you trippin off nothing."

"I don't care Ahmir, you wanna suddenly become friendly then go do that, just don't be getting on my nerves in the process. Leave alone, stupid fuck ass bitch ass nigga." She muttered, getting up and walking to their dresser to find her head phones.

"I might, keep on with the empty ass threats about irrelevant shit." Tay said loudly, making her pause to think about what he just said.

"I'm sick and tired of you! Stressing me out this whole pregnancy! And for what! All I asked you to do was stop letting that bitch post you and you calling me insecure! I'm pregnant and emotional and all the fuck you do is leave when you get mad! Leave, like really! Get the fuck out!" She screamed, grabbing anything in her sight and throwing it at him blindly.

"Stop bruh, I'm tryna stay calm and you reall-"

"What you gon do? Beat my ass? Please do, so I can have a reason to get the fuck away from you. Maybe I'll find somebody that respects me and what I'm not comfortable with when he's around other bitches. Maybe he won't be a fucking idiot." She spoke out of anger, not really caring how hurtful she was being.

"Good luck finding a nigga that wants a 17 years old with a baby and a suffocating lack of confidence. I'm leaving, so have your scream fest on your own." He got up and she shrugged.

"I hope you fall down the stairs and break yo fucking neck, stupid ass bitch. I'm not insecure, I lack security because my nigga wants to be friends with bitches that wanna fuck him."

"I don't wanna be her friend I'm being cordial and because we work together, like I said, I'm leaving so stop fucking talking to me. Don't call me if it ain't about my baby, with yo retarded ass."

"So leave, I don't need you, you was gone for half of my pregnancy any fucking ways. That bitch is unprofessional and you should say something instead of letting her think it's okay. I don't need you, my baby shole don't. Go to the store and don't come back, please."

"Like I said, call me about my baby and my baby only. We can talk when you grow the fuck up and stop tryna argue all the time. I'm sick of being around you, you always fucking complaining." Taylin began walking out when he felt her ring hit the back of his head.

"The only promise I'll need from you is that you'll stay f-far away from me." She stuttered, feeling her legs wobble as the stress took toll on her body.

"Gotchu, I couldn't give a damn." Taylin walked out quickly, slamming the door behind him.

After calming down Laylani laid down with her back to the head board, making sure her baby was fine.

"You good?" She asked, looking down and rubbing her pregnant belly. The baby kicked in response to outside noise and she smiled.

Not even 15 minutes after he was out of the door he was blowing up her phone.
