Homeboy, Sweet Homeboy

Zora POV

I was at the Banks house today Will's friend from Philly Ice Tray was coming to visit

"So I presume this is the official Ice Tray greeting party." Carlton asked coming i to the living room

"Ding ding ding ding ding" Will said jumping up and down and clapping

We heard yelling as we all looked confused when Ice Tray walked in

"Tray!" Will yelled running to Ice Tray

"Prince! Homey, get in there." Ice Tray yelled as Will began lifting him up and playfully punching him

"Guys, guys, you're gonna hurt each other." Mrs. Banks told them

"That's okay, Vivian. Let's see where this goes." Mr. Banks said

"Ice Tray, we didn't hear you come in.
Geoffrey, did you leave the door open?" Mrs. Banks asked

"Well, no." Geoffrey said

"I guess we must have left it unlocked." Mrs. Banks said

"Well, no." Ice Tray said mocking Geoffrey's accent as Will laughed

"You still got it, man." Will said

"Hi, I'm Vivian, Will's aunt. Will, why don't you introduce Ice Tray to your family?" Mrs. Banks said

"I'm sorry. This is my little Cousin Ashley. This is my bodyguard, Geoffrey.
All of this is my Uncle Phil. This is ny friend Zora. Remember we used to say
that Daffy Duck must have a little brother somewhere? Meet my Cousin Carlton." Will said as Carlton tried to shake his hand

"Can't touch this." Ice Tray said moving his hand as they started dancing

"Geoffrey, would you take Ice Tray's luggage to his room, please?" Mrs. Banks said

"Certainly, madam." Geoffrey said as he walked away

"So you're also a disadvantaged inner-city youth, I hear." Carlton said

"Yo, man, what's with him?" Ice Tray asked

"It's a tan." Will told him as I rubbed Carlton's back

"What up on the schoolyard?" Will asked as they went sit down

"School, man. I don't bother it, and it don't bother me." Ice Tray said

"You don't go to school, Ice Tray?" Mrs. Banks asked

"Oh, sure, I do. I've been held back
in the 10th grade three times in a row." Ice Tray said

"Three times?" Mrs. Banks asked

"Yeah. See, my motto is when I find a grade I like I stick with it." He told her

"Education is the mortar that builds the temple of success. That's what I personally think." Carlton said

"Like who cares?" Ice Tray said as Carlton walked away and I hugged him trying to comfort him

"What's up with Smooth, Jocko, and O-Money?" Will asked

"Smooth and Jocko, they got their
own singing group now. And O-Money got his hair cut to look like the Chrysler Building." Ice Tray said

"Hey, that's good, though, man. That Mount Rushmore thing was not working." Will said

"This is dope, man. I'm just gonna kick back here for a few days let somebody else do all the work." Ice Tray said as he and Will high fived

"Excuse me, young man. In this house,
everyone carries his own weight." Mr. Banks said

"Too easy." Ice Tray said

"Come on, daddy. Tray's on vacation." Ashley told him

"Yo, yo, yo, see, my motto is Lord, if there's anything like work around my heart please remove it." Ice Tray said

"Hey, hey, hey, I smell something greasy." Will said

"Too easy." Mr. Banks said as Tray gave Will a bag

"Yo, a cheese steak! Now this is the real deal." Will said excitedly

"Yo, man. Could I get $100?" Tray asked

"For what?" Mr. Banks asked

"To pay the limo dude." Tray told him

"You took a limo?" Mr. Banks asked

"Prince said y'all was loaded, and when in Rome, do as." Tray said

"A $100?" Mr. Banks asked

"I got a cash flow problem. You see, my Korean Gucci bags they just ain't been
moving lately." Tray said

"Tray, let's pay the dude. What's up with the Blake sisters they still live on 43rd St.?" Will asked

"Yeah, man, they got their own 900 number now." He said as they walked away

"Sheesh. He's some piece of work,
huh, dad?" Carlton asked sitting down

"We're getting a rottweiler." Mr. Banks said Sitting down

"I know he seems a little rough around the edges but I think we should all give him a chance. When you really look at it, how different is Ice Tray from Carlton?" Mrs. Bank said sitting down

"With all due respect, mom, I
think he's a little fonder of the 10th grade than I." Carlton said

------------------------------------------------------------


The Banks family invited me for Lunch as we were at a restaurant as I was looking at the menu

'You two make such a lovely, lovely couple." Mrs. Banks told Hilary amd Tray

Carlton caught me up to speed that they have a thing going in

"Dad, has mom been drinking?" Carlton asked

"Nonsense, Carlton. She's just being polite to our lovely houseguest." Mr. Banks told him

'Have you been drinking?" Carlton asked

"Hey, Tray, check this." Will said as he flipped the spoon and caught it

"Oh, that's dope, man. Let me see." He said as he flipped the spoon put it end up hitting an old lady

"Nice catch, lady." Tray yelled

"Oh, God, Tray, you are so funny. Isn't he funny, everyone?" Hilary asked as everyone but Carlton and I started laughing

"What is in the water today" I whispered to Carlton

"Not to me. Of course, I'm sober." Carlton said

"I think escargots all around for starters." Mr. Banks said as Ice Tray looked confused

"Snails." Will told him

"Oh, no, no, no, no. I don't eat nothing
that leaves a trail." Tray said as Hilary laughed

"God, Tray, you slay me." Hilary said laughing

'He busts me up." Will said laughing too

"Okay, well, before we get started I'd like to propose a toast. Tray, since this is your last night here Vivian and I would just like to say that we're both extremely happy that Hilary's found that special someone' that special love.'
I can just see Hilary and Tray in their tiny little love nest in Philadelphia'
with the pitter-patter of five little Ice Cubes. Hilary changing diapers and preparing a lovely meal while her loving husband is working his night job
on the corner as a Korean Gucci bag representative. Hilary, this is for those wonderful years in Philadelphia." Mr. Banks said

"I guess I'll be driving home tonight." Carlton said

"I am so happy." Will said

"Dad, are you saying
that you wouldn't mind if Tray and I,
like, got married?" Hilary asked

"Mind? Did you hear that, Vivian?" Mr. Banks said laughing

"Mind?" Mrs. Banks said as she started laughing tok

"Can somebody get me what they're drinking" I yelled

"That's good, because Hilary and
I got married this afternoon." Tray said

"Hilary, no, no! How could you do this to us? How could you be so stupid? Do you realize you've gone and ruined your life?This boy doesn't care--" Mrs. Banks yelled

"Mom, take it down 1,000. It was only a joke. We didn't get married. We just wanted to see what you'd do." Hilary told her as she calmed down

"See, baby, I told you they'd flip." Ice Tray said

"Yo, homey, order me three steaks and a salad. Come on, baby. Let's dance." Tray said as he pulled Hilary to the dance floor as Will glared at Mrs. Banks

"Hey Carlton wanna hang out tonight" I whispered to him

"Sure what do you have in mind" he asked me

"Well there's this new face mask I wanna try" I said

"Absolutely not" he told me

"Come on it'll be fun. We can do these face masks watch a movie after" I said as I gave him the puppy dog eyes

"Okay fine" he told me as I smiled

After lunch I went home as I changed out of my clothes into something more comfortable

I looked at the time amd ot was around 7:00

I was boiling tea when I heard the doorbell as I went go answer it. I opened the door and saw it was Carlton

"Hey" I said

"Hi" he said as I let him in as we walked to my grandfather's study

"PaPa Carlton is here" I said

"Hello Mr. Allen" Carlton said

"How are you doing young man" My grandfather asked

"I'm doing fine and you" Carlton asked

"I'm good. What are you kids up to" he asked

"We're just hanging out watching a movie" I told him

"Okay I'll be at The Banks House Geoffrey and I are playing cards" he told me

"Okay PaPa" I said as he kissed my head and we walked to the kitchen

"Oh you wanna order a pizza" I asked

"Sure" he said as I grabbed the phone and dialed the pizza place

"What do you want on your pizza" I asked him

"Uh pepperoni" he told me as I nodded and ordered the pizza

We went into my bathroom as I pulled out the stuff for our face masks

"There's this new mask Hilary recommended" I told him

"First we have to wash our face" I said as we grabbed two towels and washed our face

"Now what" he asked as I made the clay 

"Okay this may tingle" I said as I grabbed a makeup brush and put some on his face as he hissed

"Don't be so over dramatic"  I told him laughing

"You said slight tingle this a burning sensation" He told me as I smiled

"Calm down baby" I said as I finished

"Oh you look so cute" I teased

'I'm only doing this because I really care about you" he told me as I did my face

"So how long are we supposed to keep this on for" he asked

"Uh the box says 15 minutes" I said

"15 minutes" he yelled

"Let's have some tea to pass the time" I told him as we went to the kitchen and I poured him some tea

"This is really good actually" he said as I smiled

"Thank you Geoffrey taught me" I told him

"So how's Chemistry" he asked

"Better but I still need help" I told him as he nodded

"Yeah and you know my grades in Calculus are slipping" he told me

"Then I will help you" I told him as we stared at each other when I looked at the clock

"Okay we can wash this off now" I told him

"Hallelujah" he said as we went go take them off

Afterwards we walked into the living room as I held a blanket

"So do you wanna watch a movie" I asked him

"Sure what you go" he asked as I went to see what type of tapes we had

"I got The Little Mermaid" I told him

"I love The Little Mermaid" he told me as I smiled

"Me too" I told him as I put the movie in the VCR

I sat on the couch as I curled up to Carlton as we began watching the movie

"I love this part" I said as we watched the scene with Kiss The Girl

There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her I watched Sebastian sing as Carlton got closer to me

And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You want to kiss the girl I said my head on his chest as I was watching the movie

Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
Possible she wants you too
There is one way to ask her I sang along softly with the movie as I didn't realize Carlton was watching me

It don't take a word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl Carlton yawned as he cradled my body closer to his

Sha la la la la la
My oh my
Look like the boy too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl I started shivering as Carlton put the blanket over our body

Sha la la la la la
Ain't that sad?
Ain't it a shame?
Too bad, he gonna miss the girl I didn't notice Carlton leaning down when I heard the doorbell

"Oh look the pizzas her" I said as I got up and went to the door

After Pizza I ended up falling asleep on Carlton's chest

The next moring I had woke up im my bed. Carlton must of put me im here. I always noticed my earrings were on the nightstand he must of took them out. I also noticed I had a bonet on my head he must of put that on too. He's so sweet
