S.A.D || a cordae story!

Ella

Adjusting my pants, I leaned on the side of Nick's car, waiting for the rest of his friends to show up.  

I looked at my Twitter feed and saw that I had 8 likes and 3 retweets. I slightly grinned at myself and continued to scroll through my Twitter.

A few seconds later,  a heard a car's engine rev into the parking space next to our car. My heart sped up and my foot began to incessantly tap on the concrete parking lot, anxious for the to just get out the car so we can go inside.

The engine stopped and the headlights turned off. The doors swung open and four guys came out the car.

One of them looked Hispanic, two of them had chocolate brown skin, and the last one I immediately recognized as Cordae. I saw him looking at me and I instantly looked back down at my phone.

"Aye, wassgood nigga," One of the guys spoke and dapped up Nick. They all gave dap to each other and soon all eyes were on me.

The Hispanic-looking dude was looking at me up and down. So were the other guys. They had hungry, lustful looks in their eyes.

I looked back down at my feet and wrapped my arms around my torso.

"So... this must be her. The sister you was talm' bout, huh?" one of them spoke.

"Wassup, lil mama?" the Hispanic guy approached me. "I'm Manny." he introduced himself. I looked at him briefly and nodded my head upwards, saying wassup. Manny wore a simple white T-shirt, black biker jeans, and yellow and white Jordan 1s.

"I'm Glizzy." one of the chocolate guys spoke up. I waved back at him and looked at his outfit. It consisted of a white windbreaker, black ripped jeans, and white lowtop Air Forces. 

"Name's Jay," the other guy spoke up. He wore a red sweatshirt with bold, black letters printed on the front, ripped jeans and red Jordan 11s. I gave him a small wave also.

"And... you already met Cordae." Nick chimed in. I nodded my head and the corner's of my lips turned upwards slightly into a smile.

I was about to wave until his arm wrapped around my shoulders, embracing my in a brief, half hug.

I hugged him back for a second and then let go, and rewrapped my arms around myself. I noticed Cordae sported a yellow Tommy sweatshirt, skinny, ripped jeans, and blue and black Air Jordan 1s. 

My hands got clammy and I bit the inside of my lip to prevent myself from smiling again. Cordae looked so good. That hug was unexpected though, I thought to myself.

"Well," Nick's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. He smirked at me and then looked at everyone else. "Let's go. I'm tryna meet a lil' shawty, nam'what I'm sayin'?"he said, making the group chuckle.

Everyone walked slightly ahead of me and talked about whatever they were talking about and I hung slightly behind everyone. And so did Cordae. He was only a few feet away from my left side.

I adjusted my clutch under my arm and continued to stare at my phone, in an attempt to control my rapidly beating heart.

"So... you just ain't gonna speak or sum'n? Cordae said from beside me.

I looked at him, a little flushed and then chuckled. "Oh, uh, it's not that I don't wanna speak, it's just that I don't know what to say. " I said looking at my shoes.

I held the door open for Cordae and closer to me so we could continue our conversation.

"Aww, well, lemme help you out. How you doin' today?" he asked.
