*************************Oakbridge*****************************

Last time...

"Until he finishes high school." She said

"Ok mom cool I don't have any problem with that." I said happily. "So what
his name do I know him?"

"No you don't know him." She said "His name is Gerald Conners."

That name struck me like a thunder bolt. This was too much for me to take
in I was the reason he was moving in my house. Man lord don't you love me?
God man today just wasn't my day. I got detention, jumped, kissed by a
dude, and almost kissed by another. All I know is that I am beginning to
hate B-days.

Chapter 4: Meeting Gerald

Gerald was expected to be here by 9:00am, and his mom was going to drop him
off. I decided to act as if I was getting ready for school, so my mom
wouldn't know what I was really up to. I made plans to meet Enran so we
both could skip school. When I was "ready for school" I kissed my mom bye
and headed out the house. I don't know why I was so happy but I was. Maybe
it was the fact I was anxious about meeting this Gerald. All the fears I
had last night had left me. I was on my way to meet with Enran by the Five
Guys restaurant. As I was walking toward the restaurant I took the time to
observe my neighborhood. Man this place is on the line between nice and
ghetto. I hate to say it but the black people in this neighborhood really
did bring down its appeal. Once I turned the corner I saw Steve proving my
point. There he was, with his gang, beating on some helpless kid. I wasn't
in the mood to play hero so I just glared at Steve, shook my head and kept
walking. He must have seen this
 because when I looked for a second time he let the kid go and started to
roll a blunt. This pissed me off even more.  As I was at the neighborhood's
entrance he called after me. I ignored him and kept walking. He called me
again, and I snapped.

"Nigga what the fuck do you want damn!" I turned to him, and then kept
walking, after he didn't say anything. I could tell that he was in shock
form my outburst. I heard a few of his friends laugh at him.

When I arrived at Five Guys I saw Enran already there, looking nice. He
wore a black shooters hoodie, a white tee underneath some shooter sweats
and the black Jordan's (the retro II). I looked at him and shook my head as
I thought to myself "This boy is spoiled. His out fit alone cost 200,
excluding the shoes."

Myself I was wearing a grey Perry Ellis hoodie, white tee, Blue denim
jeans, and the Carmelo's (Jordans). I could tell he was thinking the same
thing I was.

"Wassup dre" He said still looking at my shoes.

"Nothing wassup with you?" I responded.

Finally he said what was on his mind. "Damn dre I can't believe you got the
Carmelo's. They just came out."

I laughed because he sounded like a surprised kid at Christmas. "Yeah man,
my mom bought them for me yesterday." I said with a smile. "Man look at you
with that $200.00 outfit."

We went into five guys and ate to pass the time. Man when we were in there
I was really nervous. My palms were sweating and everything. Man was I a
wreck, and it was easy for anyone to be able to see that. Enran must have
thought that was funny, because he was laughing every time I looked at
him. I looked at my watch and saw that it was almost 10:30. I paid for both
our meals and we left. Enran made a comment, but I was too busy in my own
thought to understand what he said.

As we were turning the corner to my house I looked in my mom's parking spot
to see if she was there, she wasn't. Before I unlocked the door to open it
I looked at Enran. I laughed out loud; some birds flew out of the bush in
front of my house. He looked like he was getting his first shot. I even saw
a drop of sweat on his head. I then remembered why he was sweating and my
laugh slowly died out. This is the moment I meet Gerald, officially. As I
went into the house I was lost in thought. I was wondering if he was going
to tell my mom what I did to him. Is he going to expose me? What if he
tells my mom I kissed Enran?

This was too much for me, I collapsed on the couch. Enran had a look of
confusion on his face.

"You alright dre?"

"Yeah son I'm good. I was just thinking." I said "I was just wondering if-"
I was cut off.

"What the hell? You nigga's following me? Then yawl got the nerve to break
in my house and chill on my mother fucking couch?! I'm about to kill one of
you mother fuckers!"

I looked up at Gerald who was fired up. I see he found my unloaded gun. I
never keep that thing loaded anyway. It was given to me from my coach just
in case Nolan decided to show up again, it was for scaring only. Looks like
it was working on Enran. He was slowly backing towards my TV stand. I guess
he saw the knife there. I wasn't scared because I knew even if it was
loaded, it wouldn't do any good, because Gerald's hand was shaking so bad
that he could barely hold on to the gun. I looked from Gerald to Enran and
back. I just laughed.

"What the fuck is so funny?" Gerald said annoyed and a little
confused. "Maybe because you about to loose your head. Yeah that's it"

Enran managed to grab the knife and sneak behind him without being
detected. Now I had to intervene for 2 reasons. The first being Enran was
about to do some real damage to my cousin, not that I care, or at least I
think I don't care. Second he was now pissing me off in my own house, and
it is time to set this nigga straight.

Just as he was about to talk I interrupted. "Look man you're about to make
a big mistake. Drop the gun and turn around."

As I said this Gerald must have remembered that we weren't alone, because
Gerald's face dropped as he realized that Enran wasn't in the same spot he
left him in. Realizing the mistake me made, he put his hands up in another
defeat. Enran stood there with the knife right up to his neck.

I could have stopped this at any time, but I decided to prolong this
event. I love a good laugh. I continued to set Gerald straight.

"Nigga first off your ass was too scared to shoot the gun, and even if you
was how are you gonna aim right with one eye closed!" I said referring to
the left eye I did damage to. I chuckled at my own comment. He must didn't
think this was funny because he now had a look of hatred on his
face. "Second nigga the door was locked and I have keys! Meaning I live
here, and I guess that makes me your cousin. Finally if I was really pissed
I would tell my friend behind you to go for the kill *smile*" I said with
the satisfaction of beating him with words.

Enran put down the knife and picked up the gun Gerald dropped. After I got
the gun I added more embarrassment to Gerald after I showed him the gun was
unloaded. Enran thought this was hilarious. It was oblivious that Gerald
didn't find one bit of this funny. He just put his head down in defeat and
went upstairs.

It was amazing how brave Enran was. For all he knew that gun was loaded,
but he still was trying to save me no matter what.

"You know something Enran..." I said as he came to sit beside me. "You're a
brave person."

"Anything for my boo." He said as he kissed me.

That kiss felt just like the first.

I fixed me and Enran some sandwiches and we watched T.V. I was beginning to
feel sleepy so I went to the basement and told him to chill and treat my
house as if it were his own.

When I woke up I saw the time was about 3:30 on the alarm clock. I turned
around in the bed and a chill went down my spine. Gerald was sitting in the
chair next to the bed. We just sat there in silence. I didn't say anything
because I could tell he was still contemplating the events that took place
recently. That's when he finally spoke.

"Look man, about this morning..." he began. "I... Umm...I'm sorry."

I didn't respond I just looked at him. Amazed. Amazed that he would say
sorry. People don't realize that that's one of the hardest words to say. I
now saw Gerald in a whole new light. I finally saw him; finally saw the
beauty behind his bruises. He's a light caramel color. His braids are super
long, they come past his shoulders, and his body was lean and muscular. He
looked like he had no problems getting a girl.

I started to blush as I realized I was getting hard. He must have noticed
because his next comment threw me off balance.

"So cuz now that we cool or whatever I got a question." He said like a baby
waiting to feed on his mother's breast. After I didn't reply his face
became fearful, but other things were on my mind.

I guess he was waiting for my reply to see if we were cool.

"Yeah man we cool, and shoot." I said hoping to answer his unspoken
question.

"Are you gay cuz?" He said as if it were a regular question.

"Umm.. Umm.. No... Umm... I'm umm..." I could answer him.

He laughed. "Ill jus give you some time to think it over, but that lump in
your pants tells me everything." He said as he left the basement.

What did he mean it tells him everything? I realized I left Enran
upstairs. I ran up there to see if he had left or if he was ok. I laughed
at the sight I saw. I saw Enran and Gerald playing my Playstation 2. I was
ready to shoot them both, no one plays my game, and what made it worse,
both their scores were higher than mine. I pushed Enran off the game and
took over determined to beat Gerald. Who was exceptionally good at racing
games.

"Damn nigga!" Enran said playfully.

"What boo?" I said putting emphasis on boo.

That embarrassed him. His light face turned a bright red, almost
pink. Gerald and I just laughed.

"Damn dre you go a cute one." Gerald said.

This totally caught me off guard. Just as I was about to quest ion his
comment he quickly changed the subject.

"So did you see the patriots crush Pittsburg?"

"Hell yeah!" Enran and I both said in unison.

We all talked and chatted like we had been friends for a long time, and
amazingly we avoided "The conversation". I must have lost track of time
because as soon as I looked at my watch, the bell rang.

"Who the fuck is it!?" answered Gerald, who was mad he lost the final lap
to Enran.

"Steve."

"Open the door nigga!" I said as I threw a pillow at him.

Gerald opened the door to let Steve in. Steve Mugged Gerald. Gerald did the
same. It was like watching Snoop and Tyrese (with dreads) on baby boy. They
both just stood there sizing each other up. I thought they were about to
fight, so I had to intervene.

"Common Steve we gotta hurry and finish the last chapter." I said at a lame
attempt to draw his attention.

He took my bait. I gave Enran a look to say I'm sorry, at least I hope he
took it that way. Enran nodded so I guess he did.

"Aiight son." He said as he walked my way with his head turned still
looking a Gerald.

We went to my room. It was awkward being in my room. We didn't say
anything, we just wrote down notes. Sometimes it seemed as if he was about
to speak but he didn't.

When we were done our notes I walked him to the door. I was concerned, but
my shyness was, once again, taking over me.  I walked him to the door and
he left.

Enran just like a good friend or Ugghh... whatever we are, sat on the couch
waiting. I decided to mess with his head.

"Son, you know who gives better head than your mom?" I said playfully
leading him on.

He took the bait and responded exactly how I thought he would. "I don't
know, but who ever it is they must be a pro to suck that spec of dust. I'm
surprised that your mans' (dick/cock/penis) didn't just blow off yet." He
said laughing at his own comment.

"Well Steve wasn't complaining about the size!" I said laughing knowing I
had him beat.

The expression on his face suddenly changed. He was pissed. His fist balled
up, and his glared went right to my bones. He hit me right in my jaw. That
was the hardest I've ever been hit. My head turned from the impact to my
face. Suddenly Enran put his face in his hands and began to cry. I too
began to cry. Not because of the hit but because my umm...friend began to
cry. He lifted his face.

"Dre why are you crying?"

"Because you are." I said.

He looked at me and smiled. I just looked at him like he was a fucking
nut. I just cried and all he can do is laugh. He just stood there gazing at
me. I returned his look. We were sitting there for like ten minutes in
silence. Finally I spoke what has been on my mind for a while.

"Enran what are we?"

"I don't know dre what do you want us to be?" He said

"I don't know, it feels like you're my girl or something, only this feels
ten times better than my other relationships."

"Ok then lets just say we go out and were partners." He said happily.

I stared at him blankly and finally answered. "Aiight boo" I said putting
emphasis on boo.

He just smiled. God I love his smiles. This is one sexy ass Muslim. All of
a sudden Enran Just kisses me. Daaayyyuuummm I gotta teach this nigga about
controlling the tongue, not that I minded.

As I was deep in my kiss with Enran Steve just walks in my house.

"A son I forgot my boo-" He stopped his sentence when he saw us.

This totally caught me off guard. Damn ,why doesn't god help me when I need
it the most? I faced Enran, he was looking nervous as hell. I couldn't
stand to see him like this. I just turned my gaze toward the
ground. Steve's next comment really fucked with my head.

"Dre why the fuck are you kissing this nigga! You know I-" He stopped.

If it weren't for the seriousness of the situation I would have pissed
myself. Here's Steve saying the gayest words ever, and he still sounds hard
saying them. I wish I had a camera with me this shit was funny. I looked at
Enran hoping he would find the humor. He didn't. His face turned from fear
to pure hatred. His words were even more alarming than his face.

"Bitch what the fuck was you about to say." Enran said with pure
jealousy. "You were about to say you like him."

Aww shit. I know Enran strong but he's no match for Steve. I know this
because Steve is a boxer just like me, and now he's ranked number one in
the district. Steve would really beat his ass.

"Steve just leave man." I said trying to stop them.

"Naw, wassup nigga what you tryna do?" Steve said towards Enran.

"Nigga its whatever." Enran said

"No stop!" I yelled.

I was merely wasting my breath. Neither of them heard me, or responded. I
knew what was about to happen. I saw Steve take his stance. His stance
looked really familiar. Then he put up his guards just like I would. That's
when I realized that he must have had the same trainer as me.

Enran was really about to get it and I wasn't about to let this happen. I
wasn't gonna let neither one of my friends fight, but now I was too late.

Steve swung, his speed was incredible. I knew then that Steve might be a
better boxer than I was. If that is true Enran won't last 5 minutes. That's
it I'm getting in this, if I don't Enran will be really hurt. Just as I was
getting up I felt and arm grab me. It was Gerald he was holding me.

"Nigga get the fuck off of me!" I said

"No dre let them fight. Don't you see they're fighting for you." Gerald
told me.

As I realized this, it hit me. They won't stop until the other backs
down. I know both of them, and neither one of them will back down. There
had to be a loser, and I predicted the loser to be Enran. I know I couldn't
intervene because it wouldn't be fair. Whose side do I take? This was
really fucked up...
