-chapter three-

location: bama's house, in her room

time: 11:30 am

Ruben's POV:  I woke up next to bama with my arm wrapped around her. She looks so gorgeous when she sleeps. I'm not the type of person to express my feelings but the day i met her i knew that we were going to be something together.

I tried to get up slowly so that i wouldn't wake her up but she noticed and didn't want me to leave.

"don't go" she whispered in a tired voice while putting her arm around me

"i won't" i said back to her.

We slept for like another hour then i woke up at 12:30 remembering we have to meet at the shop with the guys. I tried waking up bama but she just doesn't want to get up.

"bama, We have to get up its 12:30"

"ok fine"

"where do you want me to change?"

"you can change in here, ill get ready in the bathroom"

We started to get ready and i can hear bama humming a song in the bathroom. I thought it was cute.

Bama's POV:

I can hear ruben laughing at me because I'm humming but i don't care. I put on a pretty basic outfit today and i didn't wear any makeup today cause i just didn't feel like it. I of course put on the vanilla perfume that ruben likes because it was his favorite.

--you with no makeup--

--Your outfit--

"ruben!"

"yeah?"

"are you hungry i have cereal that we can eat since were kinda rushing to leave over there"

"nah im good ill wait for you though"

I ate my cereal then ruben and i grabbed our boards and skated to the shop.

Ruben's POV:  

I could smell bama's perfume when we were skating and i liked her better with no makeup. She looks like a little baby but she's beautiful both ways.

"hey bama?"

"yeah"

"i like you better with no makeup.." 

"oh.. thanks ruben"

Bama's POV: 

I was surprised he said that to me. He never expresses how he feels but i didn't mind the compliment though.

location: motorz

time: 1:00 pm

We got to the shop and everyone looked surprised that we got there.

"damn yall n***a's took forever" ray said while shouting at me and ruben

"yall probably fucked"

"omg shut the fuck up fuckshit."

we sat down on the couch while the boy's were watching pro's skate

"yo, theese n***a's are in paris eating nice dinners, stayin at nice hotels." ray said while watching the tv

"ive been to paris before them n***a's are assholes" fuckshit replied

"yeah but you went with your parents like.. imagine if that was us" ray said

"that would be pretty dope though ray" i said

"yeah" ruben said while this boy with dark brown hair walks in the store. He looks around 12-13 years old.

I waved at him with a smile then he waved back and me.

"imma head to the back and skate" ray said

"ill go to" fuckshit replied and the rest of the boys followed.

while they were doing that i decided to talk to the kid cause he seemed a little lost.

"you need help with anything?"

"n-no im just here to get out of the house"

"oh cool, I'm bama" i said while hugging him because i hate handshakes.

"stevie" he replied

"if you want to do anything or skate you can go outside all the boys are out there"

"oh, ok cool" he said while walking towards the door.

i went out side to go skate as well.

"im skating like shit today man" ruben said while drinking the rest of the water that was left.

"no your not your doing fine" i said

"looks cool to me" stevie replied

" im ruben" 

"stevie" he replied back to ruben

ray come over with sweat all over his face

"aye lemme see some of that water" ray said while ruben passed him the jug

"damn yall already drank all of this, go fill this up man" ray said while giving him the jug back

"yo stevie, go fill this up yo" ruben ordered stevie.

"yeah" stevie said while he rushed to the bathroom to fill up the water.

"he's precious" i said while ruben looks at me crazy

Stevie came back and handed the water to ray

"thanks lil man" ray said while drinking the water.

We were skating for a while then me, ruben, and stevie went back inside cause we were tired. Ruben lit a cigarette and passed it to me because we both enjoyed smoking. He also passed one to stevie.

"shit this is relaxing" ruben said while mainly talking to stevie

Stevie started to cough and i looked at him because i knew this was his first cigarette he ever smoked.

"you smoke?" ruben asked stevie"

"yeah um theese are just a different brand"

"thank you" stevie said while giggling a little bt

"what are you.. gay?"  ruben asked stevie

"what?" stevie replied

"why the fuck you thank me.. don;t.. fucken thank people thats fagget as fuck yo"

"omg ruben no its not, its common manners" i said back

"oh uh.. sorry i wont say it again" stevie said.

"its fine now you know. Just don't thank people there gonna think your gay" ruben said

"ruben thats not gay. stevie dont listen to him when your talking to me you can thank me whenever you want"i said back.

"oh uh ok" stevie replied

"look you gotta pay attention to me man. Im a fucken bad ass your a little ass kid" ruben said to stevie

"mhm" i said to ruben

"bama you know im a bad ass" ruben replied

"i smoke, i skate, i fuck bitches"

"ruben you aint fucken no bitches" i said to him

"well then maybe you can be my first"

"maybe i should" i said as i sat next to him while grasping his hand

we stared at each other for a little bit then ruben started making fun of his board cause it wasn't a real skate board.

"you need to get a new fucken board man"

"how much are they" stevie asked

"i dont know prolly like 120 for a complete. Ill sell you my used setup for 40. It's a good deal for you."

"wait don't you need your board" stevie asked

"nah, im saving up to get a new motor board"

"oh, well thanks for selling- see i was about to say thank you but-"

"don't fucken say that shit either just say nothing, fuck. Your such a little ass kid"

"hey ruben don't be mean" i said while holding his hand tighter"

"ow fuck bama that shit hurted"

"maybe that will happen less if you wont be mean to him"

we looked at each other for a while again then stevie asked a question

"w-what time is it"

"i don't know it's probably 7:30" i said

"oh shit um i gotta go, You guys don't have to be home at a certain time?"

"no. my mom is never home and my sister's always going out so i just stay here with ruben" ruben looked at me like he wanted to ask a question but i knew he would after stevie left.

"ight well see you tomorrow" ruben asked

"yeah" stevie replied

"with 40 bucks?"

"maybe"

"its a fucken good deal"

"alright i gotta go, but i will"

"ight u better have 40 tomorrow, fucken idiot". ruben yelled at him

"bye stevie i gave him a hug before he left."

it was quiet for around 2 minutes then ruben asked a deep question

"hey bama?"

"yeah ruben"

"howcome you.. always come here with bruises and scars on your face"

"i- um .. It's my my mom. She's never liked me and i was an accident so my dad left because he didnt want another. kid so my mom and sister kinda.." then i started to ball my eyes out.

"hey its ok.me too. My mom gets drunk and goes crazy on me and my sister so i just go home when she's asleep." ruben said while hugging me tight. 

I feel safe around him. I knew that when i was with him i was never gonna get hurt.

"hey ruben.."

"yeah" 

"do you just wanna sleep here tonight?"

"sure".

we both slept  together they same we he did yesterday but just on the couch in the shop. He spooned me again then i blushed until i fell asleep.

"wow look at the lovebirds" ray said while him, fuckshit, and fourthgrade walk back into the store.

"ay fourthgrade lemme take a pic of this" fuckshit said.

They took a picture of us sleeping together then just left to go home.
