chapter seventeen: deprived

a few months later...
Nova
I release a sigh as I put my attention on the board to finish up these world history notes we were doing in class today. These past few months have been okay for the most part. It's just that school is taking up most of my time, and Jordan has been busy with basketball. The season is almost over, which is good...I get to have my man back. Christmas and New Year were good with him, and he loved the presents I got for him. He thought getting me a few lingerie sets as one of my presents would be funny. I mean, it's cute, and some of them are his favorite color, but I haven't used it yet.

Speaking of that, Jordan and I haven't done anything in months. No head...nothing. Everything stopped since we had that conversation where I expressed that I wanted to lose my virginity to him. I don't know why, but I'm kind of curious now. Could it be that he's not attracted to me anymore? Did the conversation we have to scare him away a little bit? These questions were eating me up on the inside to the point I got out my phone to send him a text.

we need to talk

I can hear his phone go off, and he looks at it.

"Why are you sending me a text, and I'm sitting right here?"

"Because we are not about to talk here, we can talk after your practice at your house."

"Ok," he nods, "but are you okay though?"

"We can talk about it later."

That was weird. I have an idea of what the conversation will be about, and I can explain. For the past couple of months, I've been planning something special with Nova that requires us not to spend as much time together. I've been telling her I'm busy with basketball which is true. I just don't want to ruin the surprise for her. Since she said she was ready to have sex with me, I've been planning the perfect romantic getaway for us. At first, I wanted to use my grandparents' cabin that's not too far from Chicago, but my mom shot that idea down quickly. Simply because she doesn't want us going out of state, thankfully my other grandparents have a cabin close to the water, not too far from the city. I asked her parents if it was okay; they said it was fine and trusted me. The only downside is that both of our parents are coming. It's just that we're both young, and they trust us being in an ample space by ourselves. I guess you would have to say we have to be quiet.

The bell rings, indicating that this period is over. I interlock my and Nova's hands together as I lead us to our next period. My lips sneak a kiss to her cheek, causing her to plush. Whatever she has to say, she can't be that mad at me.

After practice, I came home and showered while Nova was lying in bed. She finished all her homework during my training which is good. I've been on her ass lately about school because she's been slipping. That's another reason why we haven't been spending that much time together. I don't want to distract her from school when she's also trying to go to Michigan. When we got together, we said we wouldn't let this relationship distract us from school, basketball, etc. She hasn't told me anything, but I peeped at the test grade she got in one of our classes, and her parents have been telling me things too. We all know she can bounce back from this; I just need to prevent it from being a habit. My hand turns the shower nob down so the water can stop coming through, and grab my towel from the rack. I do my usual moisturizing and skin care to clean myself from practice. Once that is done, I throw on some basketball shorts and place my towel back on the rack. I walk back into the room to see Nova on her iPad, looking at her schoolwork for the upcoming week, which is good.
