My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 2

*Jazzy POV*

I woke up and took a shower then went down stairs. I sat in between Santo and Jacob. "Mornin sleepy." Jacob said. I giggled. I felt Santo tense up a little then un-tense."Mornin Jakey. Mornin Santoooo." I said. They smiled. "Where's Craig and Ray?" I asked. They shrugged. "I think that they went to the mall. They desperate dudes." Santo said and Jacob agreed with him. On both parts. Jacob has a girl friend named Kaylee but, everyone calls her Kay. She's a nice person. Santo now how has me but, Jacob don't know. But, no one has ever thought of Santo as desperate. He is independent, it's like, everyone knows, he's doing good by his self, he don't need no one. And he acts like he don't need a girl. Which is a good thing.

"Jacob, I'm hungry." I said, we have been watching TV for almost two hours. It is now 10 in the morning. He chuckled. "You got two feet go get some food." He told me. I pouted. "I want you to go to Burger King." I told him. Jacob looked at me. "I'm not going no where. It's Saturday." He said. I thought for a minute. "Fine, I'll get my own, but I am taking your car." I said, standing up. He jumped up, grabbed everything he needed and was out the door in five seconds. I am a terrible driver. But I don't know if he is going to get my food or not, so, I called him.

Jacob- "Yes, I am going to Burger King. Yes, I know what you want."

Jazzy- *smiles* "Thank you. I love youuuu."

Jacob- "Yeah, yeah. I'll be home soon. I love you too."

Then he hung up. "Jazzy?" Santo asked. I looked at him. He was in grey sweatpants and black socks. "Present." I said. He smiled and opened his arms. "Come sit with me." He told me. I went and sat on the couch with him. Santo pulled me close. We just sat there like that for a while, with my head rested on him and his arms around me. Santo rubbed up and down my side. I was sort of sitting at an angle. "You wanna do something today?" I asked Santo. He shrugged. "It's whatever you wanna do." He answered. I looked up at him but didn't take my head off him. "I wanna do something. Go somewhere. I don't care. You pick." I said.

"Let's go hang out with people. Your friends and my friends." Santo said after a while. I smiled at him. "Aww, you wanna met my friends. Lemme call them. Call yours and tell them met us at the Foxfire lines in Concord at 3." I said. He nods and got his phone out his pocket. I just stayed where I was. I don't wanna move yet. "Hey, you wanna go to Foxfire lanes tonight?" Santo asked. The other person talked. "Har har. No, me and my girl are going bowling and her friends are coming." Santo explained. Then he chuckled. "What did she put you one probation or something?" He asked. "Ight man, we'll see you there." He finished before hanging up.

*Skipping to 3 o'clock*

So, two of my friends and two of Santo's friends are meeting us there. My friends names are Alyssa and Rihmeek. Alyssa is a girl and Rihmeek is a boy. Everyone just calls him 'Meek'. Santo's friends are Jabari and Ramiro. Alyssa is 17 and Rihmeek is 15. He's my baby. Santo said Jabari and Ramiro go to my high school and they are both 19. "Santo, it's time to leave." I yelled. I felt someone kiss my neck. "I'm right here, baby." He whispered in my ear. I smiled and turned around to kiss his cheek. "That's all Imma get?" He asked, holding his arms out like 'wtf'. (You know how people through their arms up when they talk. That's what he did.) I giggled and pecked his lips. "That's all you gettin now." I corrected. He smiled.

We went in and met greeted our friends. "Lyssa, Baby Meek." I yelled, hugging them. Meek is like 6 feet so, he picked me up. Santo didn't like that. When Meek put me down, Santo pulled me close to him. "Baby, this is Jabari and Ramiro. Guys, this is my girl, Jazmine." Santo introduced us. I smiled at them. "Lyssa, Meek this is my boyfriend Santo. You've met him before and these are his friends Jabari and Ramiro." I introduced everyone. They all smiled at each other.

So far, Meek was winning the game. He sat back down next to me and Santo pulled me closer. He's being very clingy right now. It was cute at first but, Meek is my best friend. "Good job, Meek." I said. We high fived. "So, how has your weekend been?" He asked. I smiled and leaned against Santo. "Great. Santo took me to the Bull Hole yesterday." I said. Meek laughed. "I was supposed to go but, the plans got changed." Meek said. I was confused. "What happened?" I asked. He shrugged. "I got grounded for fighting again." He explained. I hugged. He only fights for one certain reason. "Are you okay? I know people can be mean to you sometimes." I said. He nods. "Yeah, I'm fine. Other dude, not so much." Meek said, with a chuckle. I smiled at him. "Well, he should learn not to mess with you." I told him. Meek just smiled at me then it was Santo's turn.

"Okay, so, when did you and Santo start dating?" Lyssa asked. We were sitting at a booth waiting for Santo, Jabari and Ramiro to come back with the food. "Yesterday. But he was the one I dated for a week when I was 13." I answered. They nod. "I remember that." They both said. Then they all came back with food. "Ay, Jazzy, can I talk to you for a minute?" Santo asked. I smile and nod.

We walked outside of the restaurant and then Santo stopped us from walking. "Baby, I don't wanna start an argument but, could you please not flirt with Rihmeek or any other people while we are in a relationship." Santo said. I was confused. "I'm not flirting with anyone." I said, clearly confused. He got a little mad. "Yes you are. Hugging all up on him." Santo said, trying to keep his voice down. "Santo, that's just how I am. I hug people. I can't change that." I said. "Well, your gonna have to if you don't wanna ruin our relationship." He started. "Cause I ain't having you cheat on me our whole relationship because you thing it don't count as flirting!" He finished, yelling the last part. I didn't say anything as tears pricked my eyes. "I'mma go eat so we can go home." I said, my voice cracking. I hate when people yell at me. It brings up bad memories.

I walked in the restaurant and sat back down next Alyssa. She asked if I was okay and I told her I was just tired. "Well, it is nine already so, we all should probably hurry up and get home." Meek said. We all agreed and finished eating before we left. "Bye, Lyssa. Bye, Baby Meek." I said. I hugged both of them. "Bye, Jabari. Bye, Miro." I said. They smiled at me and we got in our separate cars.

"I thought the deal was not to flirt with other dudes?" Santo automatically started. "Santo, I was not flirting with anyone." I said, calmly. He wasn't calming down though. He was getting more mad. "What do you think is flirting? Giggling at everything he say and hugging all up on him. I see the way he be lookin at you. I ain't blind." He yelled. Tears pricked my eyes again. "Pull over." I said. "No, I'm not. We are talking about this tonight!" Santo yelled.

I opened my door so he slammed on the breaks. "Are you crazy?!" He yelled. I got out the car and started walking, slamming the door. He drove in the car, keeping up with me. "Jazzy get back in the car!" He yelled at me. I shook my head and walked faster. Santo calmed down a little. "Jazmine, baby, please, get back in the car so we can go home and talk about this." I walked faster and he got mad again. "Jazmine Justice Makayla Hope Lopez get in the car! I'm not playing with you." He yelled. I walked even faster and he sped ahead before coming to a stop and getting out.

He came to me and saw my face and his expression softened. "Baby girl, I'm sorry. I was just mad. I don't wanna lose you to some other nigga. I don't wanna lose you at all." He said, finally calm. Santo stepped closer and wiped my face. "Come on, talk to me." He whispered. I started crying and he hugged me tight. I hugged back. "Santo, I'm sorry. I wasn't flirting with Meek. I'm sorry." I cried. He rubbed my back. "It's okay. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you." He whispered. We rocked from side to side as we hugged. Santo just kept whispering "I'm sorry."

When I calmed down, I said, "Santo, I wouldn't flirt with other people with other people. Especially my best friend. Who, by the way, doesn't like me like that." I told him. He looked at me like I was crazy. "Please. You are perfect." Santo disagreed. I giggled. "Well, let's just say I'm not his type." I told him. "Well, if perfect isn't his type, what is?" Santo asked. I shrugged. "Some where in between you and Ramiro." I answer. I looked at Santo and his jaw was dropped. I giggled. "I told you, he doesn't like me like that." Was all I said before walking to the car. Stupid argument number one, finished without a break up.

"I really am sorry, baby girl." Santo apologized, buckling up. I smiled. "It's okay." I told him. He looked at me and then kissed me. Like an actual kiss. I smiled through the kiss and kissed back. It was a while before either of us puled away. "I love you." Santo said, slightly out of breath. I smiled at him. "I love you too." I said, then we went home.There was a note left for us from the guys. It said, "Santo, we went to a party. Be back...later. Watch Jazzy. Jazzy, we went to a party. We love you and watch Santo. Don't burn the house down. -Ray, Craig and Jacob" I read it then text Ray.

Baby Jaz- Night, Ray Ray. I love you.

Big Bro Ray- Nite jazzy. I love you too. We staying wit EJ tonight. we got 2 drunk

Baby Jaz- Okay, see you in the morning.

I locked my phone and told Santo. "So, what do you wanna do?" I asked him. He shrugged. "Let's play 2K14" Santo suggested. I agreed and he put the game in. We sat on the floor. Santo had his back against the couch and I was sitting in between his legs with my back against his chest. Santo had his arms around me and his hands and the controller in my lap. My hands were on top of his."I win." I said, making the winning shot. Santo groaned. I giggled and he started tickling me. "Oh, so, it's funny?" Santo asked. I laughed and squirmed around. "Stop, it tickles." I yelled. He chuckled. "Really?" He asked sarcastically. After a few minutes, he stopped. "I love you." Santo said. I smiled. "I love you too." I told him. Then he gave me a real kiss and I kissed back, of course. We walked upstairs and I fell asleep with Santo's arms around me and my head on his chest.
