Justice's POV

I didn't go to sleep till late last night. I couldn't stop thinking about what O'Shea said to me. I mean I keep telling myself it's nothing but then I think what if it really did mean something. I decided to get up early this morning before my mom could come in and wake me. I walked into the kitchen and started to fix me something to eat. She came in and looked at me. Here we go.

"HOW MANY APPLICATIONS DID YOU FILL OUT YESTERDAY?" She said with hands on her hips

"Umm I can't remember." I lied

"I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO REMEMBER EITHER IF I DIDN'T FILL OUT ANY APPLICATIONS. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A JOB BY THE END OF THIS MONTH YOUR OUT OF HERE. I MEAN IT."

She yelled that then left. I'm so sick of her mouth. All she does is yell. She didn't even have a reason to yell at me this time. Anyway enough of her. I should start looking for a job again. To be honest I don't want any of the jobs in the paper. I wish I could produce music or DJ. I gotta convince O'Shea to let me join his group. I know they could use another member. I heard the doorbell ring as I was about to call O'Shea. I put the phone down and opened the door. It was O'Shea. I don't know why I started to feel nervous.

He smiled "Well look who decided to open the door." He held his arms open

I hugged him. It felt so good. He felt was so warm an-. Wait what am I thinking about this is just my friend. I gotta stop this.

I pulled away from his hug "I was doing something thank you." I smiled hard

"Why you so happy today? You got a job?"

"No. I can't just be happy?"

"You can you can. I was just wondering. So what are you gonna do today?" He walked in and sat on the couch

"I'm not too sure. Maybe we can just chill."

"Yea that'll be cool." He looked down

"Look I'm really sorry about yesterday. I really shouldn't have said that. You're nowhere near a bitch." He looked at me

"Hey it's ok you don't have to keep apologizing. I forgave you already."

He smiled. I'm wondering if I should ask him what he meant last night but I'm too scared. I'm just gonna ask him anyway. I took a deep breath and looked at him.

"Hey can I ask you something."

"Yea what's up?"

I sighed "Umm well."

He sat up "What is it?"

"Umm you sure you guys don't need another producer or DJ?"

"I told you that my boy Andre does that. Maybe we could use one of your beats. How about you play some for me."

He got up and started to walk towards my room. I followed him and he sat on my bed. I started to play one of the instrumentals I made. He stood up and started to freestyle.

"It was once said by a man who couldn't quit "Dopeman, please can I have another hit?" The dopeman said, "Cluck I don't give a shit if your girl kneels down and sucks my dick." It all happened and the guy tried to choke her nigga didn't care, she ain't nothing but a smoker that's the way goes that's the name of the game young brother getting over by slanging cane."

He ended his freestyle then took a bow. I laughed and clapped. He flopped on my bed then I started the beat back up.

"How about you freestyle?" He asked

I looked at him funny "Man I can't rap. I suck."

"Come on just try it we're just doing this for fun."

I cleared my voice then started to rap.

"Gold around his neck 14 k he has it bitches on his dick 24-7 plus he's making money keeping the base heads waiting rollin 6.4. wit the fresh ass daytons Living in Compton, California CA his uzi up yo ass if he don't get paid nigga begging for credit, he's knocking out teeth clocking much dollars on the 1st and 15th."

"That's all I got. I know it sucked" I said as I looked away from him

He got up and walked over to me. I felt him pick me up and spin me around.

He stopped and put me down "What was that for?"

He looked at me chessing hard "That was so tight. I didn't know that you could rap. Why didn't you tell me? I would've been let you in the group."

"Well I didn't tell you because I didn't think that I could rap. So does that mean I have a job?"

"Well not yet, you have to meet the guys first. If they like you then you can be in the group."

"Cool when can I meet them."

"Tomorrow. We're gonna be meeting up at the studio tomorrow."

"Ok great. Oh wait."

He looked at me with a sad look on his face "What don't tell me you can't come. You don't even have a job to go to."

"No it's not that I cat come. I just don't have a ride."

I looked at him and he had a duh look on his face.

"Now you know I'm the one that's gonna take you. I don't know why you acting like you don't have a ride."

I chuckled "Yea let me stop. What time are y'all gonna meet up?"

"Around twelve in the morning."

"Ok cool."

He layed back on my bed as I started to play some more of my instrumentals. Those little thoughts started to come back in my head. Did he really mean something or, was it nothing. I should just stop being so shy and ask him.

"Hey Umm O'Shea can I ask you something."

He looked at me. Our eyes met and my throat locked up. My heart started to beat fast. I was starting to sweat. Man why am I feeling this way. I've looked into his eyes many times and I've never felt this way.

"Go ahead."

I started to stutter "Umm www-what did you mmm- mean when you said goo-."

Just when I was about to ask him the phone rang. I felt so relieved. I thought that I was gonna passout.

I answered it "Hello"

"Is O'Shea there?" His mother asked

"Yes he is."

"Great tell him to come down here and tell his angry girlfriend to stop calling my house and hanging up." She said in an annoyed tone

Girlfriend? He never told me that he had a girlfriend. We usually tell each other everything.

"Ok I will Ms.Jackson. Bye."

I hung up the phone then nudged him.

"Hey that was your mom. She wants you to go home."

He sucked his teeth and got up "Did she say why?"

"I don't remember." I lied

"Alright then I'll see you later. Can I get a hug." He stood there with his arms wide opened

"I think you should go she sounded kind of angry."

He gave me a stank look and sucked his teeth "Alright then I'll see you tomorrow."

He left and I flopped onto my bed. I can't believe he has a girlfriend. I wonder if she looks better than me. Well now I know that he didn't mean anything by that beautiful thing. I should just stop thinking about it. That girlfriend thing is going to be bothering me all night though.
