Bad Boy Kisses |BWWM

Chapter 26

I looked around my room wondering what I could wear so that I didn't look bad in front of manny. It was so unexpected for him to just show up after I ghosted everyone, but it also felt good to see him after a while.

I picked some clothes out of my dresser, going back and forth from my closet,dresser and mirror to see if I  looked good. I settled on some jeans and a gray hoodie. I walked to the bathroom where  I ran my bathwater. I looked at myself in the mirror. I didn't look bad, but the condition I was in did not look healthy. I quickly  hopped in the shower because manny could show up at any time.

After getting dressed I slipped my naps into a high ponytail and went to put on my shoes. I put on my brown fluffy socks and slipped on some high top nikes. I walked out my room to see my dad talking to someone on the phone. He saw me and wanted to hang up quickly.

"yes I have to go but I will see you in a bit'' he dropped the phone on the counter.

"who was that?'' I sounded eager to know. "oh that was manny asking if it was okay to come see you''. he smiled and went upstairs to the game room. I walked to the living room and turned on a movie. It kind of felt good to be back home with my dad. My smile faded thinking about my bitter mom coming home at any time as well. I wasn't ready to see her at all today.

It was almost 45 minutes into the movie when the doorbell rang, I was so terrified that I waited to see if my dad would get up and open it. He never once made a noise and I figured that I had to open the door. I was even more scared because I knew it wasn't my mom at the door, she would have unlocked it by now. I threw the remote on the dining room table and slowly walked to the door, I picked at the lock and twisted the knob.

The look on his face was priceless, he looked like he had seen a ghost. "You gone stare or what?'' I waited for him to say anything. He seemed in disbelief but he still ended up walking in the house. I slammed the door behind him hoping to wake my dad, most likely he was knocked out in the game room.

"how long you been back?'' he stood trying not to walk in circles from either excitement or he was still in shock. "I mean it don't matter since I'm here now does it?'' I sat back at my spot on the couch.

"yes I guess it doesn't anymore'' he nervously laughed and sat at the farthest end of the couch.

"so how's life?'' I sounded curious to hear. "well me and my girlfriend broke up, so I have kind of been cleansing my mind.''

Of course that was the first thing he brought up. "okay.... what else has been going on?'' I started to get real bored.

"Me and malcolm are on better terms and-'' I cut him off real quick.

"what do you mean y'all are on better terms?'' I sat up straight with concern. what did they do in order to even be friends?
