Chapter 8

The next morning, Mariah woke up to kisses this time instead of the usual sound of her alarm. She still could not believe what had happened in the middle of the night. She felt more intense feelings for Taurus, but knew she couldn't let her fall to deep because it would only end badly, given the circumstances of their lives.

"How you sleep?" He asked.

"Good... you made it better." She started. "I been having trouble going and staying asleep just because my mind is always racing, but it's like you bring me comfort because you always holding me in some way."

"I ain't neva' even been the touchy-feely type of nigga too, but that's how I feel about you. I feel comfortable with you and you been bringing that shit out of me." He explained. "I fuck with you for real... I know I told you last night and with everything going on, it's hard to focus on just each other, but I love everything about you if I'm being real wit' you. I was thinking about this all last night and I can't even stop thinking about you."

"Let me brush my teeth before you get me all emotional and shit," she laughed as she teared up. "It's early as fuck, and you got my heart racing already." She got up from the bed and went to the bathroom. Taurus followed her and leaned against the sink. "You're mom do not want that happening."

"That woman love you just as much as I do, so that's not a valid excuse."

Mariah realized what he had just said. He basically told her that he loved her, but she didn't think too deep into it because she assumed he just meant as a friend since they weren't together.

"It's not an excuse, I mean what I'm saying."

"After last night, we staying friends?"

"I just feel like we are so good together and I look at you like my best friend for real. I don't want to lose that or you."

"I ain't scared. I love you and everything about you. You my best friend and nothing would change that if I was your man and you my girl."

"I love you more," she wrapped her arms around him and gave him a hug.

They finished getting ready before they went off to school. Taurus was walking by himself to his locker before being joined by Crystal.

"If you think I'ma start fucking with you because of that baby, you dead wrong." Taurus looked over to his side.

"Look you don't have to like me, but you gone have to help and be apart of this babies life whether you like it or not Taurus!"

Taurus thought about it for a moment and thought about how to go about this the right way to get to the bottom of everything, without pissing her off. He wanted to find out if she was really pregnant and if it was really his.

"You right, that's my fault. Can you make an appointment with whoever next week so I can see and hear the heartbeat and shit?" He asked. "Just so I can experience it."

"You serious?" She asked.

"You just asked me to be involved right? Yes, I'm serious."

"Well I-I just went so I don't think they'll let me." She stuttered. He knew that when she stuttered it was because she was either lying or hiding something.

"Okay, make it again. I wanna be there from the beginning so I wanna hear and all that. Next week, Friday after school then we can go out to dinner." He lied.

"Fine," she agreed. "Unblock me then."

"I will. I'ma see you." He said to her right before he walked away. Taurus hated her; He hated talking to her; He hated being around her. She made his life a living hell for as long as he could recall from when they were together.

He didn't want to tell Mariah about what they talked about, but he didn't want to start off hiding anything from her either.

During class, the teacher instructed people to partner up for an in-class assignment. Mariah was turning towards Taurus until seeing Crystal already at his side. She was furious, but didn't want to start any more problem in class. Instead she just scoffed at the two of them and got up from her seat.

Taurus didn't tell Crystal 'no' but he knew he had to just go along with it and play nice for another week so he could get down to the bottom of her shenanigans. He knew it was selfish of him and disrespectful to Mariah, but he honestly just did not want her involved.

Mariah walked out of class and blocked Taurus' number and on social media as she walked to her locker. She was livid at the fact that she had just had sex with him last night and now he's talking to his ex and how Crystal was smiling at him. She was angry at how played she felt because she opened up and said she loved him. Mariah didn't like feeling of being vulnerable and letting her guard down which is what she feel she has done more than she ever have.

She snuck out of school and went back to Taurus's house to make sure she had time to get her things and move back out.

When she got to the house, she looked under that flower pot on the front porch for the spare key. After she got inside, she went ahead and booked a ride so that by the time she was done packing, she'd be good to leave.

Instead of another motel, she was checking herself into a hotel since it's more safe. She wanted nothing to do with him— she expected something like this to happen.

***

When Taurus got home after his day, he walked into his home calling for Mariah. He went into his room and noticed all her things that were once there was gone.

He was aware what he did was fucked up, but he didn't realize the extent of how bad he fucked up when he really meant no harm to her. When he attempted to text her, that's when he found out he'd also been blocked... everywhere.

Taurus knew he couldn't text Bahja to ask her to ask Mariah where she was because she'd know not to answer so his only option was show up at her job or wait till school on Monday.
