" Tell them I said hello also." my dad interjects.
"Alright mom and dad. I'll see you both tomorrow. I love you." I give both of them tight hugs before I get out of the car.
I reach to the side of me and grab my bag. As I get out of the car and walk up the steps, I go up to their door and lightly knock.
"Who is it?" I hear my Aunt D yell.
" Lisa." I yell back.
Right when I say my name the door swings open and she smiles.
"We've been waiting on you Lisa ." She says giving me a hug. " I've missed you so much." She says squeezing me tighter.
" I missed you too Aunt D." I say as we pull apart.
I turn around and wave to my parents as they pull off.
"Come on in. " She says gesturing me to come in as she steps out of the way.
" I cooked dinner just incase you're hungry baby." She says as I follow her to the kitchen.
" Thank you but no thank you. I'm not all that hungry."
" Well that's fine. You can always warm it up whenever you get hungry."
"Okay then. Where is Uncle J?"
" He is knocked out." She laughs. " But I know he is going to be happy when he sees you in the morning."
" I can't wait to see him too. I don't want to disturb his sleep though. You know how he gets when he looses sleep."
" Who you telling?" She chuckles shaking her head.
"Exactly." I snicker. "Where is Shawn and Marlon? Are they here?"
"Yes they're here. Probably upstairs playing on that game." She says crossing her arms." Shawn! Marlon! Bring y'all behind down here!"
A few seconds later I hear feet rushing down the steps.
When they get to the last step they look at me in surprise then a smile grows on their face.
" Lisa!" they both say in unison.
" Yo where have you been. It ain't been the same without you." Marlon says as we do our handshake.
" I just been in New York havin fun."
" Y'all lets go to my room. We need to catch up." Shawn says going up the stair along with Marlon.
I follow them up to his room and once we're in, Shawn closes the door.
I flop down in the chair that was next to the tv in Shawn's room. " I don't know what I would do if you guys didn't live here. How do you like it here anyways?"
" I like it. Its not as bad as you think Lis." Marlon takes a sip of his water.
" Yeah I hope so."
"What you been up to anyways? We ain't seen you in like two years." Shawn says looking in my direction.
" Nothing really. Just hanging out, studying, and working." I shrug.
"Well thank god you moved here with us. You've obviously been living a goody two shoes life like always." Marlon says shaking his head and taking another sip of water.
"What's that supposed to mean." I laugh. "I can be bad when I want to."
"You? Bad?" Marlon pauses then looks over at Shawn. They laugh loudly as if this was a comedy show.
" Yo what's funny? I'm serious." I say with a straight face.
" Nothing." Shawn says as their laugh dies down. " You want to hang out with us tomorrow? We're inviting a few of our friends here and we plan to do something."
" That's fine with me. I need to socialize and make friends anyways."
" Cool. Cool." Marlon says trailing off. " Y'all want to watch Purple Rain?" He says getting up to get to turn the tv on.
"I'm down to watch my husband any day." I smirk.
" You want Prince's gay ass?"
" He's not gay dumb ass. " I smack the back of his head which makes him turn around.
"Ow." He holds his head and winces in pain. "I was playing. Damn."
" Well it shouldn't have been said." I walk over to his closet and grab a blanket. " Where is the bathroom? I haven't been here in a while."
" When you walk out of this room make a right then you'll see it at the end of the hall." Marlon replies.
I nod my head then I take my bag with me to the bathroom.
Once I get to the bathroom I take a quick shower then I change into my pajamas. Once I have pajamas on, I put my hair into a low ponytail with my bangs hanging down my forehead.
As I walked back in the room Marlon and Shawn were snuggled under the covers, laying in the bed.
" Bout time you got out of the shower." Shawn says.
"Well I'm here now. Scoot over butt heads. " I say as I climb on to the bed.
They scoot over, making room for me.
" Shush the movie is about to start." Marlon says while eating popcorn and staring at the tv.
Author's note: I'm going to try and put a song for each chapter. I love old school music so don't expect nothing new. If you want to get put on then I got you but if you don't care, don't worry about it. Hope you enjoyed the first chapter.😊
