Caught in the Middle

OMFG!!! The dinner went absolutely horrible! I know what your thinking and no it wasn't because of Jermaine and I. it was because Mom went off on the mayor's wife because she called me a faggot and my brother a ghetto hood rat. We had to almost carry my mom out of the hall. It was a nightmare. My mom started going off on her and then she threatened her with a butter knife!! How the hell do you threaten someone with a butter knife? I just hope come Monday she still has a job. The press is going to eat this up. That night when we got home we heard mom on the phone yelling and cursing and scheduling a press conference and I knew we had to be there and it was just so much drama. That same night Melody called to tell me that we were the cover story for Tmz. I was really starting to hate them. Sometimes I wish I were a regular person cuz this shit was just too much for me. I decided tonight was not the night to talk to JJ, but I knew it had to be before the party because we had a lot of stuff to get done this week and we had no choice but to do it together. I told Melody to come spend the week over here cuz as it turns out my car still wasn't ready. My mom was kind of upset because I kept adding and changing things. What can I say? I'm a perfectionist, and this car was gonna be the ultimate reflection of me and my style.

Melody came over and we spent the next 3 days arguing. From party decorations to what JJ and I were gonna wear to food, it all was just exhausting. By Thursday we had finally settled on the food but we still had the biggest issue of all... What to wear? I wanted us to go with the rock star pretty boy look but she just wasn't getting what I was trying to describe. She wanted us to look like hood niggas. Don't get me wrong, I love me a hood nigga and I loved the look but I thought we could step it up a notch cuz it is 2010 and the hood look is getting pretty old. I felt it was time to change the game and this party was gonna be the time to do it. One of my designer friends was working on a look that he wanted to launch and I thought now was the perfect time to show Melody the sketches that he had sent over to me.

DaeDae: Ok look bitch! I'm not bout to go to this party looking like your everyday street nigga. I can dress like that any day. I want everybody to be talkin bout this outfit till the next party. With that being said, let me show yo punk ass what I've been working on.

Melody: Hell Naw! You better be a fashion icon the way yo ass tryin to sell me this dream....

DaeDae: I'm not even gon say anything jus look at these.

I watched as she went to look thru the sketches and I knew she was loving them. I knew it because the bitch didn't have not one negative thing to say bout any of them.

DaeDae: Yo fuck ass speechless huh?!!!

Melody: This is hot! I'm feelin this, how long have you been workin on this?! Wait a damn minute!!!!

Oh shit its bout to go down....

Melody: BITCH I KNOW YOU AINT KEEPIN SHIT FROM ME!!! SINCE WHEN WE STARTED DOIN THAT SHIT?!?!? I TELL YO BITCH ASS EVERY THING DAMIEN! IM HURT!

DaeDae: You hurt?! Now that shit is hilarious

Melody: What the fuck is that supposed to mean?!

DaeDae: Nothing never mind don't even much worry bout it.

Melody: Naw if you got something to say let it rip playboy. Keep it a hundred wit ya girl. If you got pressure then let a bitch kno!

Did this bitch really jus step to me like this?! I guess now is a good a time to let her ass know I know what's going on but first I need to go get something.

DaeDae: Yeah I got pressure but hold that thought shawty....

I walked across the hall to JJ room to see if he was here and sure enough he was lying cross his bed playin Halo or call of duty or some shit I don't know.

DaeDae: Bruh I need to talk to you before this party and Mel and I need yo opinion on some shit before we make the final decision. Can you come to my room for a min?

JJ: Yall never needed me for party stuff before so why start now? You wanting to talk, I really aint tryin to hear you right Na Bruh.

DaeDae: Trust me you wanna hear what I have to say and you kno you got to ok what we gon wear.

JJ: FUCK! Ion even kno why we still do these fuckin parties, this shit is aggravating as hell!

DaeDae: Nigga you don't help plan shit! You just say what you want there and invite yo friends and that's it so don't give me that bull shit! Jus bring yo fuck ass on.

He got up and the look he gave me was not a nice, but I don't give a fuck. I'm about to put these 2 muthafuckers on blast. We walked across the hall to my room and for a brief moment I saw them exchange a glance and right then and there my suspicions were confirmed.

Melody: What the fuck you went and got him for? He don't have nothing to do with what's goin on.

DaeDae: Ohhhh but he does... He has everything to do with it.

I waited for a minute jus for dramatic effect and I saw them look at each other confused as hell and then they looked back at my smiling face and I knew I had em.

DaeDae: Mel you claim you keep it a hundred wit me but yo ass has been keepin secrets from me for awhile and you actin like you hurt cuz I kept something as small as some sketches for clothes a secret form you? And you J you round here mad cuz of what happen almost a month ago when all I did was come get you when YOU asked me for help when I TOLD you NOT to go! Then you get extra mad when Mom finds out cuz you think I told!

I'm not one to really cry but these niggas was pushing me and I refuse to let them see me cry. I fought back the tears and I held my ground. I didn't want to let the anger fill me up too much cuz I didn't want to lose either one of them but they had to see how much I was hurting by their own hand.

DaeDae: Imma tell you what hurts the worst! It kills me inside to know that MY BEST FRIEND and MY TWIN, MY FUCKIN TWIN HIDES A RELATIONSHIP THAT BEEN GOING ON FOR 6 MONTHS!!!! 6 MONTHS OF YALL LYING TO ME EVERYDAY! 2 OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PPL IN MY LIFE FELT THEY HAD TO HIDE THEIR RELATIONSHIP FROM ME AND THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK IS WHY?! AND WHAT HURTS THE MOST IS THAT I HEARD IT FROM SOMEONE ELSE!!!!
