“My best friend! Heyyy!” Siren greeted me with a big hug when I arrived.

Tonight, it was her and Blake’s housewarming party. I arrived thirty minutes after it started because I had a client whose style took a little longer than anticipated.

“Heyyy! Give me a tour! Give me a tour!” I hugged Siren back and requested.

She grabbed my hand and happily showed me around. Their house was a wide ranch-style house that Siren said was 3,300 square feet. There were two full bathrooms with an aluminum fenced backyard. Their furniture was set to be delivered tomorrow and the next day.

“Siren this house is breathtaking! I am so happy for you and Blake! I can’t believe you two are here.” I happily congratulated her after the tour.

I noticed more people were arriving, but it wasn’t overly crowded. Blake had a giant Bluetooth speaker playing music and a lot of catered food along with drinks in kitchen. Siren told me they rented chairs and tables for the party.

“I still wake up next to her and have disbelief on my face. But I love her so much and just want to continue being with her.”

As she talked, I felt an arm wrap around my neck then a kiss was planted on the side of my head. I knew who that was.

“Hi best friend.” I smiled and spoke to Hendrix.

“Sup best friend. This house nice as shit, ain’t it?”

“It is. I was just congratulating her. Karter here?” I asked him.

Hendrix used his finger and pointed to my left. I saw Karter talking to Blake, he waved at us and handed her two big gift bags.

“Y’all staying the night with us?” Siren asked Hendrix.

“You know it.”

I shook my head laughing because their arrangement was always humorous to me. Siren looked at him with a pleased and sensual kind of look. I cleared my throat loudly and they laughed.

“What’s up with you and the joke ass nigga you were with. He stopped calling you from different numbers yet?” Hendrix asked me.

I told him and Siren about Keanu and his wife. I even told them about the pregnancy and me deciding to abort it in Arizona. Hendrix was ready to hunt him down and kick his ass. But I did not want him to waste his time.

I promised Hendrix and Siren that I would never be with him again. Keanu tried to communicate with me, but I blocked him every single time. There was nothing he could say that would explain his reason for being married with a child and not telling me.

“It’s been two days and nothing. I hope it means that he’s gotten the hint that I do not want him at all.”

“Glad to hear that because I ain’t tryna catch a case but you know I will.” Hendrix reminded me.

“Me too.” Siren added.

“I would never want that for y’all. Keanu is out of the picture.”

“And Halo is back in?” Siren asked with a slick smirk on her face.

Ever since I told them about Tapper’s they had so many jokes. Hendrix was not feeling it at first, but Blake ended up talking to him. I was not there but Siren told me a little about it. Hendrix did not want to fight Halo as much anymore.

“Halo is not back in. I just don’t hate him as much.” I bashfully admitted.

“Y’all women are too up and down for me.” Hendrix joked then he kissed the side of my head again. His arm unwrapped from around my neck and we went over to Karter and Blake.

“Speak of the devil and his two brothers.” Siren said and she motioned her head behind me.

I turned around and the Stone brothers walked inside of the house. The three of them would make anyone stop in the middle of whatever they were doing. You just had to look at them and all the fine ass glory.

They had swag, the clothes they wore made a statement even if they were basic jeans and hoodie. Three different shades of chocolate. Everyone spoke to them. They each had gifts in their hands, and they sat them on the table with the rest of them.

I rushed off to the kitchen so I could get a slush margarita from the machine. Halo looked good and I needed to calm myself down. Those infamous braids had a purple bandana tied around them.
