Chapter 18
"Once I picked up Bey we didn't waste any time heading straight to the Skating rink. I was pretty excited that she had agreed to the lil outing so smoothly. she was definitely hard to come by these days. I was glad she was finally coming around. After the sudden hiatus away from each other I didn't know what to think.
I mean, I knew we didn't necessarily leave on good terms that night leaving the hospital when she picked up her car from my house. I didn't think she'll shut me out completely, and start ignoring and avoiding me, stop coming to school completely, clearly making it obvious that she didn't want to bothered with me anymore.
I attributed it to her fathers health for obvious reasons, and tried to not take it as personal as it felt. I wanted her to know that I was there for her, that I wanted to be there for her.
When I confided in Ty about it, he made me think that maybe I came on to strong on how I reacted the night in the car, considering the circumstances, and just the timing period. I understood it better, and felt bad. In no way was I trying to pressure her into a relationship, or pressure her into saying we were anything more than we were. I guess it just went to my head how much her mother liked me already but it just bothered me that she didn't want me the way I wanted her.
I probably shouldn't have brought it up, but like I mentioned before I have no filters. I wasn't thinking at the time. I just wanted to get across how I felt. nothing else mattered.
I wanted to apologize to her but I knew she wasn't fucking with me for the time being and so I left it alone, until two weeks ago when Ty hit me up, asking me what I was getting into.

"Nothing man, just got done grading some papers. what's going on?" It was unusual for him to be calling me on a Saturday night. Ever since Kelly came into the picture, the nigga has been tied down like no body's business.
Not that I cared, I was happy for my boy. he finally found someone worth his time. and she wasn't a Gold Digger, wasn't stuck up, and from the chats, could cook too, that was a plus.
"Word? aight cool. perfect.." He sounded a lil to relieved. what was this nigga up too?
"Nigga, why are you whispering?" This fool was tripping
"Cause I don't want Kels to hear me.. Just Listen, she talk to your girl yesterday."
"Who?"
"Kelly Stupid. who else? .. Aye Listen, she agreed to come out with Kelly tonight but Kelly forgot it's our date night, but she don't want to call her back and tell her cause she scared she won't come out any other time."
I sighed impatiently. where was he going with this bullshit?
"What's your point man?" I yawned, obviously bored with my annoying best friend.
"So we're suppose to be picking her up in a few hours, I was thinking maybe you can slide thru .. you know, so she won't be a third wheel and shit"
I sighed again "Ty I-..."
"And before you say no nigga, don't! cause you was the one whining to me about how you wish you could talk to her and shit, and tonight you have the perfect opportunity."
Heavy Sighing seemed like the only thing that was escaping my lips at the moment, of course I wanted to see the woman, I've dreamed about her countless times, I daydream with thoughts of her, she crowded my imagination. I just hated to admit it. Ego? yeah just a lil bit..
After a moment of silent thinking and consideration I obviously agreed to it, and before I knew it, hours passed and I heard Ty honking in my drive way.
