Teach me how to love ~On Hold~

Chapter 5

Dejanae' POV

We arrived at Aaliyah's house, the engine cut off but no one moved. I was to caught up in thought to recognize Aaliyah calling my name. 

What is Damion doing messing with me? Why am I letting him? what's there to gain for me? I know he's a smash and dash type of guy, he's probably hit every girl in school but this is a new low I mean he's moving on me the school nobody, the trash, the ugliest thing alive.... but why? but the question that really stuck in my head was why??

Aaliyah: D

My thoughts were interrupted by my body shaking, turning my head I looked at Aaliyah she looked confused.

Aaliyah: D, I was calling your name but you were out of it.... you alright??

Dejanae:"Ya I'm fine let's just go get ready for tonight" I mumbled not meeting her eyes that seemed to be burning a hole through the side of my face.

We both got out of the car, Aaliyah walking ahead of me opening the door.

I stepped through and took in the sweet aroma of fresh baked cookies, I dreamed of living in a type of house like Aaliyah, tall beautiful house with seven bedrooms one with its own balcony,  A beautiful silver chandelier right above you as you step through the doors, crystal clear marbled floors, A huge back yard with a pool. 

??: Dejanae

my eyes met a short women, long beautiful black hair with blonde highlights she was thick which gave away where Aaliyah got her curves from and looked like an older version of Aaliyah.

Dejanae: Hi Mrs. Moore

Aaliyah's mom: * laughs* how many times must I tell you child were like family call me Lauren hell you can call me mom for all I care seems like I'm the only one who stepped up to take that roll

Lauren knew my mother back in high school they got pregnant and had me and Aaliyah around the same time, Lauren and my mom raised us together everything was fine then my dad who was M.I.A for 3 years came back  and swept my mom off her feet she left Lauren and never looked back, never called or stopped by. Once my mom started to change Lauren allowed me to stay with them, she and her husband taught me things my mother never could, they helped me with my education  and set up my very own room when I come to stay. I walk in and it's like I'm automatically apart of the family.

Lauren: * Sigh* well enough of that sappy crap go upstairs and get ready for this party she squealed 

Dejanae: * laughs* Okay Lauren

I make my way up the stairs to Aaliyah's room, I peaked my head into her room as she finished her conversation with someone

once she seem me a huge smile formed on her face. I walked into her room and sat on the bed looking at her with a confused expression.

Dejanae: What?

Aaliyah: I just talked to Damion and he says Jayden has some feelings for you she squealed

I nearly chocked on the fresh air I was breathing, once i regained my breath I started laughing

Dejanae:* Laugh's* Aaliyah that's too funny girl Jayden has no type of feelings for this  

Aaliyah: *irritated* And What's wrong with that 

Dejanae: * laugh's* what's not wrong with me my face, hair, clothes, weight I'm the definition of ugly walking.

Aaliyah: Well clearly your not or Jayden wouldn't like you so instead of moping your ass on my bed you can get up put on a sexy dress and go party with your new bae??

Dejanae:* sighs* What's wrong with one night

A grin appeared on Aaliyah's face once again

Aaliyah: That's my girl

Aaliyah picked out a beautiful black and golden short dress with some golden jewelry and Suedette high heels, she put big curls into my hair and finished off with my makeup. I looked in the mirror and looked shocked at the person I was staring at, She looked amazing like a model but inside I felt like I was showing off too much I'd catch attention and be a laughing stock.

Aaliyah: Don't you look hot babe or is it just me standing by you making you look good she chuckled

Aalyiah had on a bright pink short ruffled dress with a golden belt and golden suedette high heels.

Dejanae: Aaliyah thank you but look this isn't me, i'll draw attention and my boobs are almost out of the dress, let me at least wear a jacket.

Aaliyah: * finishes her makeup* No you look hot and every boy needs to see what they're missing when you step into that house.

Dejanae: *mumbles* Alright

we walked downstairs to be greeted by Lauren she stood up just in awe I was hopping she would be a good mom and tell me to put a jacket one or pull up this damn tight dress but she just stared.

Lauren: *teary eyed* My babies are growing up, Dejanae you look stunning baby now go have fun

but not too much she laughed

Aaliyah & Dejanae: Bye Mom

Lauren: bye girls.

The drive to the house was silent, mostly because i was so nervous that i couldn't think straight my mind was going a thousand miles per hour. I was interrupted by the engine being cut off and the music blasting all the way down the street.

Me and Aaliyah got out and began to walk she could tell that I was nervous she grabbed my hand and squeezed it.

We walked up to the front door.

Well hear goes nothing.......
