Love Lockdown (Sequel to Promise To Love)

Chapter 7

Keyshia POV~I woke up feeling hugged tightly. I looked around and realized I wasn't in my room. I looked next to me and there he was, Mario peacefully sleeping with me in his arms. Seeing him sleep peacefully reminded me of Jordan. They were both beautiful. And surprisingly they both don't snore. I decided to try to go back to sleep because I didn't want to disturb him. I tried not to move much but I failed.

"Shit!!!!!" I whispered. That's when Mario slowly awakened from his sleep. That's when his face came up to mine. His beautiful light brown eyes looked into my eyes. I just sat there astonished by the way he woke up looking at me like the way he always do.

"Good morning beautiful" he said to me with his low tone voice. He was mixed with Mexican but I could here his accent. It sent chills down my body every time he spoke to me closely. "Morning Mario" I replied back. "I'm sorry if I woke you, I didn't mean to. You look so good sleeping..." I stopped right there. I didn't mean to say all that. I stood there with shocked while Mario laughed.

"So I look good sleeping huh?" He said between his laughs. "Shut up!! You know I didn't mean that" I said laughing along with him. I got up out his bed and went downstairs to do the morning routine. Cook breakfast, get dressed, and be prepared for whatever happens today. I cooked pancakes, eggs, toast,bacon, and cheese grits. And I served cups of orange juice. I don't why people drink orange juice in the morning. Fuck that, I drunk me some fruit punch. I'm not a orange juice person I guess.

"Breakfast is ready"!!!!! I yelled upstairs. I didn't know if my dad was here but I made enough in case he slept in late. Mario came downstairs with his basketball shorts on and no shirt. I gave him no contact until I sat at the table. "You play basketball?" I asked curious. "Yea" he replied. It was quiet after that. Then some shit happened........... My dad came from the front door mad as shit stomping over straight to Mario. He pushed me out the chair and food went flying off the table.

WHERE DID KEYSHIA SLEEP LAST NIGHT!!! he asked raising his voice. "In her room" his replied back with now fury in his eyes. NIGGA STOP LYING TO ME!!!!! he replied. He grabbed Mario by his neck and pushed him against the wall. DIDN'T I TELL YOU NOT TO SLEEP WITH HER!!!! He said. I looked at him with confusion. "We didn't sleep together.. Like that" I said trying to sound positive. YOU BETTA SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!! He said to me. He slapped me hard making me fly across the kitchen.

Besides his bipolar disorder, Mario couldn't stand my dad putting his hands on me. That's when all anger rose up into Mario. He punched my dad in the face making him fall on the table which now was shattered glass. "Get outta here" Mario told me. I did what he said and watched the whole fight. My dad was beating Mario which I thought was unfair. Mario and I didn't do anything. He was just there to comfort and protect me. Which was something I never got from my mom or dad.

Mom was on drugs and some how moved to Tallahassee and my dad was just lonely and crazy here. Finally the fight was over and the kitchen was a mess. Mario for the first time ever yelled at my dad. YOU KNOW WHAT, IM SICK OF THIS SHIT!!!!! IM DONE!!! YO ASS GOTTA FIND ANOTHER ASSISTANT BECAUSE I QUIT!!!!!!! he yelled at him. Mario went upstairs and packed all his shit real quick.

I sat there crying because who's gonna protect me now. I need Mario. And now my crazy ass dad drove him away. THIS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!! I yelled at  my dad while crying. He tried to spit on me but miss. Mario came downstairs with 4 suitcases. He came to me and kneeled down to me and lifted up my chin to see my face, which was horrible. He gave me a piece of paper that was folded. He looked at me and whispered in my ear. "I'll be back" he said. He kissed me passionately while my dad was watching. He left it at that and went out the front door. I felt my dad look at me so I turnt to face him.

He looked at me with his dark coal eyes. He was face and fist was bloody. "Clean this shit up" he said. I nodded my head in agreement and headed back to the kitchen. Before he went to the basement he broke something else and told me to clean that up too. If only Mario was here................
