Re: Fearless
“Damn. Someone is all nosey!” Linda said to him. “It’s home girls truck”
He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back.
“I’m Joel” he said shaking my hand.
“Meli” I said looking at him. He looked so familiar. As if I had seen him before but I hadn’t.
“Would you like a drink?” he asked.
“Ohh no. I cant drink”
‘Ohh. Your pregnant” he said sitting next to me.
“HELL no! one is enough. I’m the designated driver” I said laughing.
“Ohh damn. You had a kid?”
“A little girl. Jazlyn”
“And I’m guessing you’re here with you man?”
I looked at him and right when I was going to say no, I seen him. Junior was standing at the door. My heart started to pound so fast. My hands got sweaty and I didn’t know what to say.
“Hello!” Joel said waving his hands in my face.
Linda noticed how I reacted when I seen Junior.
“OMG!” she said grabbing my should and then whispering in my ear “Junior is your baby daddy?”
I looked at her and didn’t say anything.
“He’s a dad 3 times already.. Does he know?”
I shook my head no.
“Joel give us a minute” Linda said.
“Ughh fine.. Eyy but I want my dance” he said looking at me and the walking away towards junior.
“Why did we come back?” I said to Linda as I fixed my hair so Junior wouldn’t notice me.
“You had to do it eventually”
“I know but. I thought I was over him, I thought I was ready. But I guess I’m not”
We looked over to where they were standing and they were all looking outside and then we all heard a car alarm go on. I looked at my keys and seen that they were blinking.
“OHH HELL NO!” I said standing up and running to the door. I pushed through the crowed and I even pushed Junior I didn’t mean to but oh well.
“The fuck is your problem you piece of shit!” I said yelling out as I seen a guy scratch my truck with a key.
“Fuck you bitch” he yelled out and everyone else laughed.
I laughed to. “You dumb piece of shit. Your totally going to regret what your doing”
I looked at his face a little closer and noticed it was Sam. I never really liked him because he was an ass.
I dug in my purse and pulled out my gun. I pointed it to his head.
“What pendejo! You thought I was going to let you get away with this?”
Everyone else crowded us and started yelling out for me to calm down and to take it easy.
“I’m sorry. Man I’m all fucked up”
“BUt you know what your doing”
“Sorry”
“You know this truck cost more than your fuckin life. LITERALLY!” I said yelling out.
“I..I..”
I got closer to him.
“Look at me” I said whispering. He looked at me. “take a closer look. Osea nada que ver buey”
He looked at me and his eyes opened wide.
“ Meli?”
“You don’t know how many times I’d actually wanted to put a gun to your head.”
“Chill out little girl” Junior yelled out.
“Fuck off” I yelled out still pointing the gun to Sam. “I aint gonna shoot you Sam. Your not worth it” I smiled and pushed him to the floor. I put my foot on his head and I was pressing my heal to his chest “If you ever fuck with me again. You wont turn out to be so lucky………….. Osea neta wey”
With that I walked back inside to the bar. Everyone else stayed outside laughing at Sam.
“What happened?” Linda asked.
“Drunk ass Sam keyed up my truck”
“Damn. That fucking asshole”
“Girl. All guys are like that. That’s why I don’t give a fuck about anyone of them anymore. They are ALL full of shit”
She laughed “So true.”
She gave me a shot of Jose Cuervo. Damn I really needed it.
“You still drink free here!” Linda said smiling.
“Ja. Damn you still remember?”
“Girl. It’s On the wall. Melanie Serrano drinks for free here” she said pointing to the frame on the wall.
“JAjajajaja. Damn those were the good old days!”
“I’m saying”
I asked for another shot and I was starting to fee a little buzzed, but I felt good.
“Damn girl! Your fucking Gangster! Sam totally shitted himself” Joel said laughing and sitting down next to me. “But eyy sorry bout your truck. I can fix it”
“Don’t sweat it. Sam wont ever change”
“You know him?”
“Yes”
“Orale. Ey so where’s my dance?” he said
“I don’t dance this music” I said but I was totally lying.
“Or you don’t know how to dance bachata?”
“I do. But I don’t really like to. I prefer Tejano”
“Ohh Really?”
“My favorite!” I said.
One minute after we had that little conversation a tejano song came on. “Por Que” by Duelo.
“Would you like to dance?” he said to me as extended his hand out.
I looked at him and smiled. I noticed that he was really cute!!!!!
“Yes!”
We stood up and we held hands to the dance floor.
“Don’t get embarrassed because we are the only ones dancing.”
“Nah it dosnt bother me” I said thinking back to when Junior and I would be the only one dancing and everyone else would just sit and watch us.
“So you from around here? I’ve never seen you?” he asked me.
“I grew up here” I said when I noticed that Junior was just looking at us. I giggled because he didn’t recognize me.
“Really? I moved here bout 2 years ago”
“Oh that’s good”
“So I’m guessing your not with your baby daddy?”
“No. ja if I was I wouldn’t be dancing with you”
“Why not?”
“Cuz. WOW you don’t know him. He’ll go psycho on you!”
“What?” he said laughing.
“Yes im serious. That nikka was crazy! LITERALLY!”
“Well. Thank God your not with him anymore right?”
“I guess”
“EYYY Joel we’re leaving!” Junior yelled out.
“Hold up bro. let the song finish!”
“No it’s okay if your leaving.”
“Your ass is walking home Joel! No bullshit!”
“Look just go! Here’s my number. Call me!” I said getting his phone and saving my number in it.
“Alright I’ll see you around” he said giving me a hug and a kiss on the cheek “I’ma go piss! Hold up”
I laughed and then walked over to where Perla and smiley were at, but I didn’t notice Junior was sitting in the table beside them.
“Let go girl I’m tired and I miss my Jazy!” I said to Perla as I sat down facing my back to Junior.
“Just a little bit more!” Perla said.
“Perla. It’s fuckin 4 already let’s go!”
“Chill Meli! Let me catch up with my girl!” Smiley said.
“Osea nada Que ver you two have forever to do that”
When I said that Perla and Smiley stayed quiet.
“QUE????”
“Melanie?” Junior said.
My eyes opened big. And I felt like I was going to shit my heart out!
I stood up and was going to walk away but my legs wouldn’t move. I covered my face with my hair as Junior stood in front of me.
“Meli! Baby!”
