'Ouch wtf, why do you hit like a man.' He said as he rubbed his shoulder. I laughed at him again. 
                          
'Punk.' I said as we continued walking. 
                          
It was about 1pm and I hadn't expected so many people to be out. The first day event started at 3pm so I thought going out earlier would avoid me having to see people.... but guess who was wrong again — ME. 
                          
'Where did you go yesterday? I thought you was gonna come to the party.' He scolded me. He had been trying to get me to come to the parties but I really weren't up for it. If I stayed in I knew the chances of seeing Tre would be slimmer and that's exactly how I wanted it. 
                          
'I went home, Monae was sick I had to look after her.' I lied. Nae was sick but that's not really what happened. Ricky was cool and all but I didn't really wanna tell him all my business especially something which was still so sensitive to me and he spoke to people I didn't like and I didn't want this news running around.
                          
'You're coming out today by force. It's the last event so you actually have to and I'm not taking no for an answer either.' He said while pointing his finger at me. I smiled lightly not wanting to respond just yet I'll decide if I wanted to go out later. 
                          
We continued walking down the strip and heard a bunch of girls making noises behind us. I turned around to see what it was and saw Ashley's friend Jayda and the whoring crew walking behind us. 'Are these bitches following you.' I asked Ricky. They couldn't care about me. I don't know none of em. 
                          
'I thought you said I shouldn't refer to women as birches but now you doing it.' He said trying to annoy me. 
                          
'Yeah women, not girls. Them girls behind us are bitches. Childish as fuck.' I said rolling my eyes. Ever since that bbq this Jayda girl had made sure to have a problem with me. Probably just following her friend Ashley. Weirdos. I don't know why these people wouldn't just leave me alone. 
                          
'I don't know them bitches, fuck them you look better than them anyways.' Ricky said as he turned around a put up a middle finger up them. I laughed at his stupidness as he pulled me towards him and hugged me from the side.  
                          
'Rah.' I heard. I kind of got scared, I didn't want it to be Tre. I hope it wasn't. I wasn't ready to see him yet. Especially not with another guy. Not that I cared but I didn't want him to think negatively of me or that I had moved on. 
                          
I turned around and seen it was Aaron. I was relieved he was alone yet again but I knew he'd have something to say. 
                          
I looked towards him as he looked at Ricky's hands around me and looked back at me. 'It's nothing.' I knew what he was hinting at instantly. 
                          
'I didn't say shit!' He shouted as I dragged Ricky away. I hope he don't tell Tre. 
                          
Tre
