"What the fuck are you throwing shit for?!" Mouse yelled. "It's seven in the morning," Mariah had mumbled to herself, annoyed with how early in the morning they were fighting after checking the time on the old ass alarm clock that only worked to display the time after seeing that her phone was dead. Mouse and Isabella had been fighting all morning, at first it was quietly, but obviously it had escalated, and then died down and then reescalated, which woke Mariah up. Reyna flinched at hearing some glass break, followed by Mouse yelling in the kitchen. Or more so, look at what he had always been. Danny once seemed perfect to her too, now look at what he became. Mariah didn't think she could trust first impressions anymore. Something about a man who was only soft with you was just a chef's kiss.Īnd the way Fezco had lifted his shirt to scare off Danny with showing him the glock tucked into his jeans–she would have gotten on her knees in an instant if they were under different circumstances.Īnd he was so funny. He was all shy and sweet with her one minute and the other he was the complete opposite with Danny.
She noticed a scar running along his head, but felt too invading to ask what had happened. He was one of the few guys she had ever met to pull off a buzz cut.
She didn't think he even knew how fine he was. Mariah could not get that out of her head. He protected her and made sure she was fine and safe.įezco was easily the sweetest guy she had ever met. Sure he was half a stranger, but he had been nicer to her than any other guy had ever been her whole life without expecting anything in return. Mariah didn't know what it was with him at all, but she did know that she had some feelings for him. But it wasn't really like that with Fezco. She felt like she was in high school and was entering a talking stage with a new guy again, getting butterflies every time he complimented her and looked at her a certain way and not being able to stop smiling at him or at the thought of him, hoping he would text her. She could vividly remember telling him that he better use her number after asking for it, and she could also vividly remember him assuring her that he would. Danny wouldn't be able to annoy her that way.īut that also meant that she wouldn't know if Fezco texted her. She had grabbed her phone to check it after she woke up, then saw that it was dead and didn't even bother plugging it into the charging cable. She was too lazy and also half asleep to block him then, just letting her phone battery eventually die out due to how many times he had called her. She hadn't been on her phone since she texted Fezco back last night, falling asleep to the light buzzing that came from her phone besides her while she missed several calls from Danny.
Her eyes ignored the light fingerprints marked on her throat, just how she ignored the guy who put them there. She had sat Reyna down in her vanity chair right in front of her mirror, occasionally glancing at herself in the mirror while she did the little girl's hair. The next morning, Mariah found herself doing Reyna's hair for her first day of school as soon as she woke up and was done with her morning routine.
