Blue Curtains C1

Chapter 1: Why me , out of all people? 8:30 PM Ain’t nothing but good ass sandwich on saturday night at a four star hotel. The news always playing a shootout. I was the first one to get here so i planned to kill time while i wait. Trey and elgin both walked in arguing. I Turn around. “I didn’t forget shit you the one.. Ayee RJ” As elgin turns his attention from trey to me. Niggas always wanna argue. They check themselves in and we head upstairs. I felt like lifting heavy weights with my legs since that good ass sandwich had blessed the stomach. Well we get drinks n shit , get ourselves ready. I walk to my room , and showed off my hops to my bed. I laid there for a good minute. Stare at the ceiling, if a earthquake happened and it fell on me, i don’t think i would’ve felt it. On god. It hasn’t been a hour until I get phone call. What the fuck, i thought. I rolled and reached for my phone. At this point, there were three rings. I picked up the phone, it stopped. Unknown number. I lightly throw the phone off the bed not caring if it fell on the floor. The goal was the counter...ahh it fell on the floor. I lay back thinking. If penguins played a sport what sport would they be able to play? After that thought , is sit up and scatter through my stuff to find my weed. Time to get lusty. An 8th worth go a long way in the system. I reflected a time when These ghetto white girls that would say they have the black card because of their association to black people. Bailey and taylor always made the good deed of being toxic people from Jamestown. She was cooking me pasta cause she knows “how to suck dick good”, what the fuck right? I rolled my eyes and replied “ okay cool that” . Food was trash i asked her to hug me after she was arguing n she told me i was talking shit , I’m like who , she like I’m not naming names cause I don’t wanna blackmail em , My interest in this get together haven’t stoop to this level since i was 5’3. So i just stood there like “ok” i gave a pale look at her then looked away. I finished he blunt and slid my shoes on and left my room. I feel like it was a curse to think about her. This weed is just bussin crazy right now thats what it is. Elgin calls my phone. “aye man im going to the studio. If you wanna come , get the fuck down here mr. man” Elgin and I and his boy we all go to the studio n bang out 2 songs n freestyle. I didn’t even know who tf all thee people were. As i sit on the couch chilin, My social started to drain to the bottom. I got up but as i was about to head back upstairs to dress up. Kacey made a surprised appearance. “ Hey “ I tilted my head up hearing the familiar high pitched voice coming from a female. Kacey was old friend we met at a track meet back in high school. Her tight shorts and her sensitive look just attracted me to go talk to her. We fucked. Ever since then we were always cool , we would flirt here and there but i know ill hit again. I surveyed kacey, with her slim thick thighs fitting in that black dress. I slowly looked at back up. Iicked my lips all cool and shit. I give her a sensual hug. Her body feels softer than before i met her. I smell the strawberry perfume trailing my nostrils with a burning sensation of love. It turns me frail to every whiff of smell. The Ladies man juice… “heard your little posse was going to some hotel party. I was in the area. So i thought i come by.” she interrupted my whole thought process. “Never thought you knew about this” I replied. “ who invited you? Elgin?” “Of course he did” she replied. I nodded. We sit down and on a couch observing the room. Kacey squints like she has someone on her radar. Her head pans like a camera on a tripod. Red beams flying out eyes and shit. She catches her target and boom she turns into robot, bigger than robocop she arrests her target. Not only that, enemies run in start shooting...she calls my name. EVERY ONE IS OUT TO GET HER . She calls me again. SHE CAN’T BE STOP!!! “RJ” Kacey looks at me concerned. “You okay?” “Yeah i was just dazed out” I replied. The weed started kicking in, finally some good ass weed. I nodded at the approval. Kacey pushes me. “So you out here smoking without me?” Her attitude changed from concerned to skeptical, aware. She knows the anwser but she just want to make conversation. I look back at her and nodded. “Well I aint know you coming” i replied “If i did we would not be here right now, am i wrong or am i right?” She smiled. She turns back to the room.clocks her head to the door when people walk in, couple seconds to me as i make contact with her. She looks back. --- 10:30 PM We make it to the zoney hotel party , luxurious black and gold environment, i got a white shirt wit a chain, small chain and black sweater with a black pants , black calvin kleins , skinny fit though yah dig. Kacey grabs my hand, her perfume smell from her neck, dress and her body below that dress fills my nose up like a blow of wind mixed with water. She pulls me towards the bathroom the “lets talk” is running through kacey’s mind. Oh we’ll certainly have a conversation. In the meantime... ELGIN been scared since he got here. He always felt like someone is out to get him. All this feeling was all internal. He tried his to best to shake. His anxiety kicks in like free kick in the barcelona match. Elgin would use a woman’s presence to accommodate for his frantic feels that he is getting from the room. All the yelling from trey, he already turning up with a bottle in his hand. “How you feelin?” trey asks “better not have them jitters you be getting” “ nah im good” elgin replied. I don’t why he asked. Elgin always had his doubts. He sits on long couch that could fill up a starting five and the sixth man. “Where is RJ? i thought he was next to us. “Elgin concerned as much as kacey was. “You know R man He probably out there being R.” It ain’t nobody different. Elgin calms down and women approaches the table. Elgin gets up and “Wassup beautiful?” White girl looks at elgin. She had a blank look on her face. She turns away and starts walking aways. Just a sudden movement and she turns back , “actually, Have you seen kacey?or mr.killy? “ Elgin turns to trey. “Mr.killy ?” The girl sitting in front of trey pointed to mr. killy and his office. She walks towards that direction. Elgin nods his head. “She talking about kacey bro” He murmured. Trey becomes confuzzled. “Didn’t you invite her” trey asked “No” 11: 00 So now i get the food and shit ah ah ah , elgin already talking to shawty , black curly hair , black dress, black melanin, nice smile heard you so i see shawty walking upstairs to another balcony of the party to get food like how broke people would. When I walk upstairs, they had already gotten their food. Not only that , a heat argument had been at its peak and taylor takes a gun and starts to walk around wit it. It was a fucking robbery. Ahhhh man. So there going stealing peoples shit. Taylor was doing her thing like i know she done this before SHE TOLD ME SHE DONE THIS BEFORE. Only this time she was fucking wit a nigga . I ain’t know if i was a normal pedestrian or a “bad apple” or a plain old enemy. Good thing she hasn’t seen me since she got into the party just to pull out a strap. I was only half way up the steps. So i sneak back to find elgin n trey. Once I reached them “ you good bro “ trey asks “ hell yeah “ I replied. “These females are cra-“ ONLY JUST HEAR A GUNSHOT. A woman screams “ what the fuck you doing ?” GUNSHOT. Shes on drugs. A fallen woman shot in the head. she shot her own constituents. I couldnt a find a better word for own member or a teammate , own guy but they were girls and one gay guy at a robbery ehh I don’t know since they knew each other that word was still valid okay back to the story. I just see her friend falling to the floor in agony , with a gunshot wound to the kidney-stomach -rib area . 5 seconds went by. Taylor & I made eye contact. She was staring at me through the whole sequence. Every person in the room starts screaming and runs to the stairs. Somehow she gets close to me , someone bumps into her and then sits down on a chair. She gets up so quick n her other constituent tried to stop her she shoots hit him , she turns to me i grab her wrist . Holding it down to where if she pulls the trigger, it could hit my $1200 calvins and my good foot or the floor , red by the way . For a good minute I almost knocked it out until i get bombarded by some many people running into each other i get pushed to ground she aims n shoots towards my guy , i fall back. Did she just shoot me? I duck, an act of despair. She loads a full clip toward my direction. I fall a step down, in distraught , is this it? My ears going blurry but I thought only eyes go blurry. Im on the ground When i turn left , brent’s girl is on my left scared under a table. As I slowly, she picks me up and tells me to run . A few feet i could see brent and trey running right ahead of me. “ Not on my black suit” elgin screams “ just come on “ trey resonates I ran past Taylor and she's all curled up , with the gun in her hand to her leaning towards the temple , she was gonna kill herself. She sat there in regret, disappointment in her actions. Her action from a reaction of her personality. As i hit the hallway, I turn around to confirm take in every thing i saw She starts shaking, trembling. I get pulled by a trey with a “lets go nigga” from left side of my ear. Every thing was still muffled. We run downstairs safely, to run outside , getting far ahead to catch our breath. We ran out the side door GUNSHOT. GUNSHOT. I turned around. confused . You can’t shoot yourself twice. Where the fuck is kacey? I take my phone out. No phone. I forgot my fucking phone in the motherfucking bathroom. I turn and rush to trey. “Trey lemme see yah phone” doing the come on hand motion to him. “Say please” trey said. I suck my teeth and the girl who had his phone gave to me an. i snatched it. I started dialing. I called kacey. How the fuck i know her number by heart. ringing . She told me 259-3838no answer. Called again. No answer. fuck. “Aye elgin you scary son” trey outbursts “ Not in my black suit noo” The group laughed. “So what we gonna do now?” elgin asked “I dont fucking know” I replied. The girls walk the other way because they called themselves an uber, trey kisses one of them and walked back towards us. Im in distraught on what happened. Shit. once I shrugged we all started walking its only been a few minutes of walking seamlessly. High speed cars. Sound like a drag race. I crossed the street , and its creeps up two black cars come swerving to the corner surrounding us. Im confused. I get shot at but kacey takes the bullet for me. Now here I am, getting greeted by 2 black nissans 4 men walk out. His stance when he takes his two reveals the hierarchy of his power. The head huncho always make the great entrance in those crime movies. Whenever a problem needs to be confronted or solved. They’ll be there front and center. What the fuck they want, I thought. “Do you know who i am?” The man asked elgin put his hands up. His fear of these men walking out menacingly with suits.guns. Facial mugs that spreads intimidation. I turn to look at elgin. “Calm the fuck down” I mouthed. As soon as I made eye contact wit him. I turn back focused on my five w’s. Where to run? Who to hit in order for me to run? Why are we in this mess? When will they leave? How are we getting outta this? “Yeah i do” trey replied. You gotta be fucking kidding me. Boss man steps aside hand out guiding us to step into the car. We get into the car while he gets into another car. As We get inside the car , I look out the window kacey running out with a bag and a bullet wound to her side.I tussle with the door.locked. Fuck. I smack the window. We drove off the second i could focus on what i seen. Im watching kacey die front of my eyes. I started shaking, trembling. Disappointed on what i have done which wasn’t much to help. The further we drove away the more I dread the feeling of unease. Unease of the situation that is at hand. END OF CHAPTER 1
