"It's not like I'm going to catch feelings for him by braiding his hair," I raise my eyebrow at him. I've only got those feelings for one person and he's standing in front of me. In a black shirt that makes me want to jump him.

He grabs the pocket in the front of my hoodie and he pulls me to him. Our bodies hit and he looks down at me as I peer up at him.

"I'myours," he makes sure I know. He grips my jaw and he roughly kisses me. I heat up when his hand travels under the front of my shirt.

"When did you eat last?" he mumbles against my lips before continuing the kiss.

Two days ago, why?

"A couple of hours ago," I say strongly.

"What was it?"

"A pepperoni pizza," I answer. His eyebrows furrow into a frown.

"You don't like pepperoni," he responds expertly, recalling how I told him the last time we went to the pizza place I didn't like pepperoni's because I think they're spicy.

"I took the pepperoni's off," I shrug.

"Then it would be a cheese pizza, not a pepperoni," he acts like he's an apparent pizza expert.

"I'm not talking to you anymore if all you're going to be is a smart aleck," I narrow my eyes up at him.

"Fine," he says, pulling away from me, "like you can actually keep your damn mouth shut."

Somebody peed all in his Cheerios.

I give him a slight unhappy look to which he only emotionlessly looks at.

"When you're done being the way you are right now, come talk to me," I tell him before turning and walking down the hall and back into the living room.

Right as I'm entering, he grips onto the back of my pants and turns me back around to him.

"I'm done being a shit now," he assures me, "I'm sorry."

A little smile creeps onto my face and he bends, kissing me.

"Ooh, Azalea can I have a kiss too?" Sanfred's voice breaks our kiss.

"Fuck off," Grey sneers at him. Both Jai's and Linc's chuckles fill the room.

I plop my booty cheeks on the couch and Lincoln sits down beside me. Sanfred gives me a wink before sitting down on the floor in front of me, in between my legs.

I feel Grey's eyes on the both of us. And Bear's.

I find his eyes and he mouths 'kick him away'. I just roll my eyes and give him a little smile.

I look at Sanfred's soft looking hair. I brush his hair back with my hands right before I have to show Linc how to part it to braid it.

A tapping noise fills the room. It stays continuous. I find the source of the noise to be from Grey's bouncing leg which shakes the chair he's sitting in.

His face is very unhappy and beside him, Jai's face is happy as can be, smiling and everything.

"You start at the very top, okay?" I instruct to Linc who nods. I tilt Sanfred's head back. I show Lincoln how to part it in three ways all while he watches, contently paying attention.

Hopefully, he's paying attention.

Sanfred suddenly lets out a groan. I wince. Bear perks up at the sudden noise.
