It was 2 in the moring and Corey was just getting home. He opened the door and to his surprise he seen his sister laying on the floor.

"Lisha...Lisha?" He said as he shook her. "Get up, what's wrong?" He asked as he lifted her. She peeked her eyes open and closed them back without saying a word. He layed her in her bed and covered her up. No matter how mad she ever got him, he was always going to look out for her.

Monday morning

Alisha had been quiet for the past day and a half. She said nothing to anyone in the house, nor did she eat. The bed was her comfort zone, at least until today. It was Monday morning so there was no more laying in the bed. She had to return to school, she hadn't talked to Kevin since the incident and she wasn't looking forward to seeing him but she had no choice.

Corey could see for the last 2 days that his sister wasn't feeling too good so he took the kids to school again which Alisha was thankful for. Getting on the bus and being bothered by the public is something she didn't need right now so she planned on walking. The school was about 30 minutes on foot.

She did her daily routine of getting ready. She went in her room to grab her shoes, when she seen something red sticking from up under the bed. She remembered this is where she stored the jacket. Looking at the jacket and necklace now in her hand made her think about how sweet and loving Kevin was, tears began to run down her face. She dropped both iteams and stuffed them back under the bed before leaving.

She was in no rush to get to school, she wanted to skip but she was on an attendance contract for missing too many days. She had to come to school without missing a day or else she'd be kicked out.

She arrived at school and saw everyone talking and laughing with their friends which annoyed her. The bell for first period was due to go off soon so she walked to class and of course she seen Kevin walking to his. She dashed straight in the girls restroom. She waited and waited and even let the tardy bell ring.

She walked out of the bathroom and as soon as she turned the corner Kevin was waiting for her. She tried walking past him but he grabbed her wrist.

"Move, let go of me or i'll scream and I guarantee you SOMEBODY will hear me this time" she said as she yanked her arm. "What are you talkin' about?" He asked. "I'm talkin' about you takin' advantage of me the other night. I came to talk to you because I thought you cared but obviously all you wanted was what's between my legs" she snapped back.

Kevin had a confused look on his face and eventually he let out a sigh. "I really hate talkin' about this but when I'm depressed I smoke and drink and sometimes I get carried away. My interpretation on everything turns out to be wrong and I'm sorry. You may feel like I took advantage of you but I didn't or I at least I wasn't trying to but if you feel like that then theres nothing I can do but apologize. I barley even remember what happened that night, if I wanted to intentionally hurt you, I would have done it at my house that day. Could you just please forgive me baby? I'm sorry." He pleaded as he reached for hand.

Alisha paused and waited, he was right. If he wanted to hurt her, he would have just done so at the house. She wanted to lose her virginity to him anyway, just not in that way.

"You promise me you'll stop what you're doin' if I forgive you?" She asked refering to his drinking and smoking habbit. "I'll drop it in a heartbeat, you feel that empty void that I have. I need you Lisha" he said. "I'm serious Kevin, hou really did hurt me" She said sadly. "I know, I know baby. Forgive me?" He said with his hand still out. She reached for his hand, "Alright, just remember this is your last chance" she said.

He smiled and kisses her on the cheek. She was really hoping he would make no more mistakes, she wasn't a fool for any guy but she didn't know what she'd do if she had to leave him alone.
