A Night To Remember

Chapter 22: Angela

All the stress, heartache and pain I was going through doesn't even matter now. I finally know that Laurent loves me for me. And I love him for him. His love making skills are outstanding. Laurent made me feel things I ain't felt in a long time. He is truly my medicine. After laurent and I made love in the shower, I heard knocking on the door. I threw on a night gown and opened the door.

"Hey girl, is Laurent in there? " Larry asked.
"Uh yeah. Come in. " I welcomed Larry in.

Laurent came out the bathroom; wearing nothing but a towel.

"Well, uh, I came to give you your car keys. " Larry said with a smirk.
"How's the party going? " Laurent asked he picked up his clothes off the floor.
"Still going strong. Some people left. " Larry replied.
"Hey, Larry, where's my girl? " I asked.

I haven't seen her in an hour.

"I think she left with my boy Mike. She was all over him." Larry replied.

I chuckled and said under my breath,

"That doesn't surprise me. "

There was another knock at the door. Larry opened the door to reveal it was their friend, Giovanni.

"Hey yall. The police are outside. " Giovanni quickly said and left.
"What! " Larry, Laurent and I shouted at the same time.
"Okay, go answer the door. I'm going to throw something on. And I'll meet you at the door. " Laurent said to larry.

They high five each other and left the room. Laurent ran up the stairs. Larry and I signaled everybody to be quiet. The Dj stopped the music. The crowd did what they were told to do. But for some reason, people were ducking and hiding. Larry opened the door to a buff, African American male police officer.

"Are you the head of the household? " The officer asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, sir, I am. Is there a problem? " Larry replied in a calm voice.
"Yes, there is a problem. I'm getting noise complaints from your neighbors. " The officer replied as he glanced into the windows.

I stood behind Larry as I waited for Laurent to come down the stairs. Laurent ran down the stairs and stood next to Larry.

"Hello, I'm Laurent B. Nice to meet you, sir."

The officer mean mugged Laurent. Laurent put his hand down. The officer looked at Larry and Laurent, then said,

"You two twins? "
"Yes sir. " Larry and Laurent replied.
"You guys having a party? " The officer asked.
"Yes, sir. " Larry said.
"A birthday bash, sir. " Laurent added.
"I need to see your id's. " The officer asked.
"Are you serious? " I asked.
"Hey! Show me your id's now! " The officer demanded.

Larry, Laurent and I handed the officer our id's cards. He looked at us and handed our ID cards back to us.

"Let me tell you something. If I get another call for any reason, and I have to come back out here, somebody is getting arrested. Do we understand each other? " The officer explained.

"Yes, sir. " We said together.

We stood in the door way and waited for the officer to leave. When the officer left, Larry closed the door.

"The coast is clear!" Larry shouted and the people cheered and screamed.

I walked to my room and Laurent followed me. When I grabbed the door knob, Laurent grabbed my wrist and said,

"Hey beautiful, where you going? "

I turned around and rubbed his tattooed arms.

"I'm going to bed. I'm tired. You're welcome to join me. " I mentioned and yawned.
"Okay, sleeping beauty. I gotta make sure the party stays calm. I love you. " Laurent replied and kissed my forehead.

My heart skipped a beat. I went into my room and climbed under the sheets. I looked up at the ceiling and thought to myself,

"I'm in love with a celebrity. "

Even if Laurent wasn't famous, I feel that Laurent would still be the same man he is now. He could have had any woman to call his own. And yet, he chooses me. I don't know where our love will lead us. But I can't wait to find out. Thank you god, for rescuing me out of the darkness, and blessing me into the light, amen.
