CHAPTER ELEVEN: CURIOSITY

"Why didn't you come to my party?" Jackson asked Brian as they were at his locker. Brian felt kind of bad for blowing off Jacky, but it had been worth it. He had made love for the first time and nothing else could compare to that, nope nothing.

"Oh, I was tired.that's all. So, yeah how was it?" He asked hoping that Jacky wouldn't pry.

"Oh shit kid, it was fun as hell---" Jackson started to say, but was cut-off with loud laughter coming down the hall. Tracy was laughing at something Riley had said and it was obvious that she was making it seem funnier than it probably was, but Riley didn't seem to mind. No, he was feeding off the attention.

"What's so funny?" Brian asked with a smirk on his face. Tracy looked up at Riley and laughed even harder as she leaned against his shoulder to stop herself from falling over.

"Nothing man. See you guys at lunch." Riley replied through his smirk as he and Tracy made their way past them.

"What the hell is going on with those two?" Jackson asked curiously. It seemed strange to him that the two of them had gone from bickering at each other one day, to laughing like they were best friends the next. He wasn't bothered by it...just curious.

"I'm not sure. Give me a week and I'll tell you." Brian replied.


Regina stood at the entrance of the school lighting up a cigarette. She didn't smoke regularly, only when she was stressed and stressed she was. She was confused about a lot of things. Just when she had made up her mind to break things off officially with Jackson, she chickened out. She knew that he felt the lack of love between them too, but for some reason she couldn't find the courage to break things off and neither could he. She loved him, that was the truth, but how do you tell someone you love that your just not in love with them? It's hard to do that. But, she felt like not only was she cheating herself, she was cheating him. It was just as unfair to him as it was to her. They should both be free to find someone they could be in love with completely. Yeah, so what if they were barley seventeen, they could have been cheating themselves out of greater love than what was between them. Her thoughts were driving her crazy and as hard as she tried to stop them, they just kept coming. As if on cue, she heard someone call out her name and breaking her from her stress laden thoughts. She turned around and when her eyes met vicious gray cat colored ones, she wished she hadn't turned around at all.

"What the fuck do you want Brianna?" Regina asked without hiding her irritation.

"Now, Gina baby don't be like that. I just came over to holla at you for a second." She replied slyly with a smirk on her face as she tossed her long, dark wavy hair over to one side.

"It's Regina! RE-GINA, not GINA!" Regina screamed.

"Yeah, whatever, anyway I wanted to ask you a few things about Brian."

"Brian? Why?" Regina asked. Brianna never even so much as looked at Brian before and she had to wonder why she would even be asking about him. Whatever it was, Regina knew it couldn't be good.

"I'm just curious--"

"Naw, fuck dat. Your hoe ass plotting some'n!" Brianna tried to put on a look of surprise, but Regina wasn't buying it. Brianna was bad news in the form of lip gloss and viscous smiles.

"Who's you calling a hoe?" Brianna shrieked and stepped up into Regina's face. They were equal in height, but Regina had her beat by at least forty pounds.

"You bitch!" Regina replied as she took her own steps closer. Brianna wasn't stupid. She knew that if she gave into her first instinct and hooked off on Regina with her right hand, then she would never get the information she wanted. No, she needed to bide her time.

"You know what, fuck all of dis!" She replied as she backed away and began to switch her curvy hips into the school building. Regina watched Brianna's retreating form and knew that things weren't over. No, not by a long shot.


He was a coward. A fucking coward. He had dodged his alleged "girlfriend" for the whole weekend all because he was too scared to break-up with her. It wasn't the whole "breaking-up aspect as much as it was the fact that he would be breaking Lucia's heart that he was afraid of doing. He did love her and if his love for Brian didn't feel so strong, then he would be more than happy to stay her boyfriend, but he couldn't do that. He couldn't find it in himself to string her along, no that wouldn't be right. But, it was harder than he thought. He imagined the conversation in his head. He would tell her that he didn't want to be in a relationship and it wasn't because of her or anything she had done, but only because he didn't feel it would be fair to her to limit herself with just one guy when they were only sixteen. In his mind, Lucia would agree and they would part as friends. Yeah, he knew how stupid that all sounded which is why he couldn't tell her that. Which is also why he dodged all of her phone calls on Saturday. That, and he was "otherwise occupied" with Brian.

"Yo! Where was you on Saturday?" Carlos asked as he took his seat next to Anthony in science.

"Oh, huh?" Anthony asked suddenly breaking out of his thoughts which he had been lost in.

"Why wasn't you at the court?" Carlos continued. It had been established that every Saturday, he, Carlos and a few of the other guys from the team would meet up at the basketball court to play a few games. Mostly out of fun, but partly to keep their game playing fresh and on point.

"Oh, I had some shit to do."

"You was wit Lucia?" Carlos asked and Anthony was annoyed by the intrusion. He didn't like Carlos being all up in his business like that, but that was Carlos's style. He was always "underneath" him and sometimes it felt a little smothering.

"Damn, why da fuck you care?" He shrieked and Carlos was taken back, but played it off with a nervous chuckle.

"Shit, never mind then..."


"So, what's going on with you and Tracy?" Brian asked Riley during lunch. They were the first one's to arrive and Brian wanted to be in the know.

"What do you mean?" Riley replied slyly, but couldn't suppress the smirk on his face.

"Don't do that with me." Brian playfully retorted.

"Do what?"

"That Ry!"

"That what?" Riley asked with a smile on his face.

"That thing your doing where you try to pretend you have no clue what I'm talking about when really you do." Brian replied and Riley threw a French-fry at him. Brian smirked, picked it off the table and pretended he was going to eat it.

"Aiight man, I'll tell you if you don't eat that! What do you want to know?"

"I want to know what the deal is! You two seem..closer. What happened?" Brian asked and Riley started to smile.

"Oh, nothing really. Let's see, we went to dinner, talked for a few hours and then I had to give her a piggy back ride home because she couldn't walk---"

"Yeah, I don't know why she wore three inch heels in the snow--" Brian interrupted as he sipped his ice tea.

"Can I finish before everybody gets here?" Riley joked and continued, "So, I had to carry her on my back and I walked her to her door, said goodnight and.."

"And...And what?" Brian smirked.

"Oh, nothing.she just kissed me that's all." Riley stated nonchalantly.

"Wait! Hold on, she kissed you? You serious?"

"Hell fucking yeah. One minute we're standing there and she's telling me how she likes my hair and I just laugh and shit because she made me nervous, then BAM, she kisses me! No fucking warning at all man! Just her lips on mine.it was fucking awesome!" Riley smiled and Brian nodded his head in approval.

"So, are you guys like a couple now?"

"Who knows? We didn't talk about it, but whatever we're doing, we're gonna keep it on the low if you know what I mean. She pretty much told me that unless I got some sort of miracle tan that made me look more like Allen Iverson instead of Tim Allen, he's not gonna like me." Riley stated and Brian was surprised that Ry didn't seem upset about that. He guessed that Riley's life must have been so bad already that he focused on whatever good he could. Tracy came and sat down next to him with a smile on her face that Riley returned. Brian suppressed his laugh when Tracy offered Riley some of the fries off her tray.


Drills, drills, drills. That's how the afternoon was spent and by the time the two hour practice was over, Anthony was exhausted. Sweat dripping into his eyes and body feeling like it was three seconds away from collapsing, all he wanted to do was take a hot shower and then go to sleep. He didn't bother with the showers in the locker room because he much rather preferred his own. As he threw his clothes in his gym bag, he felt eyes watching him. He turned to look and saw that it was Carlos who was eying him curiously. All through out practice, Carlos had tried talking to him, but he just ignored him. Maybe Anthony was being a dick, but he was sick of Carlos always up in his business. It was like he had no life and lived vicariously through him and Anthony hated that. He rolled his eyes and continued packing away his dirty clothes. He brushed passed Carlos who made some attempt at conversation that Anthony just blew off. They would most likely be talking again in a day or two, but at that moment Anthony had nothing to say to him.

Carlos stood there and watched as his best friend ignored him. He hated knowing that Anthony was mad at him almost as much as he hated not knowing the reason why. He was trying to think of something that he could have said or done to make him angry, but nothing came to mind. It was frustrating and fucking aggravating! He put up with a lot of shit from Anthony. His mood swings, ass-hole behavior and the way he liked to hog the ball on the court were only a few. Yeah, he put up with a lot of shit from him and honestly he didn't know why. He tried to mumble a 'good game' to him as he walked out, but all he received was an annoyed grunt.

Fuck! Carlos was pissed. His work boots crunching under the snow reflecting the hardness of his anger. He needed to take his aggression out on something..anything and when he saw Brian coming out of a bodega with a bag of groceries in his hand, Carlos had found the perfect way. He walked a block behind him, unsure of why he felt the need to keep some distance, but he did. He watched as Brian struggled with the bag and Carlos shook his head in disgust at how weak he was. In his eyes, Brian was weak and pathetic. He represented everything that a man should NOT be.

Carlos spotted Anthony coming from around the corner, still in his school clothes, crossing the street and calling out to Brian and Carlos smiled to himself with the thought of he and Anthony teaming up on Brian like always. Nothing says 'lets make-up' better than a little gang up bullying. But, when he saw Anthony smile at Brian and instead of pushing him, hug him briefly, Carlos didn't know what to think. No, something wasn't right. Anthony wasn't suppose to do shit like that, fuck, he didn't even hug him and he was his best fucking friend! You don't just hug somebody who you hate and they hated Brian. Yeah, Carlos hated Brian and he thought Anthony did too. No, something was wrong....very wrong with what he was seeing. He was about to walk up to them and ask just what the fuck was going on when a soft, sexy, Spanish accent tickled voice stopped him.

"Cute, aren't they." The voice whispered and Carlos turned around only to be greeted with kitten like gray eyes and a sexy smile.

"Brianna? What the fuck you talking about?" Carlos asked, not sure if he wanted to know the true meaning of her implications.

"Come on baby. Let's you and me take a walk.." She purred as she looped her arm into his and lead him off in the direction of her apartment building....
