Double Trouble: Part 7

Chapter 23

[NAOMII'S POV]

I Slowly Walked Down The Street With My Headphones In, Humming Along With The Song. Since My Grandparents Were Out Running Errands, I Decided To Go Over To Michael's House For Awhile And Hang Out.

I Turned The Corner And Headed Towards His Apartment Complex, But Stopped Dead In My Tracks When I Saw Michael Kissing Another Girl! My Mouth Dropped When I Noticed Who The Unidentified Girl Was. It Was My So Called "Best Friend" Elise! They Had Stopped Kissing As They Smiled At One Another, But Their Smiles Quickly Disappeared Once They Saw Me Staring At Them. I Was Stuck. I Couldn't Move As My Heart Slowly Fell Into My Stomach. They Both Just Stared At Me In Shock, And Before I Knew It, I Was Taking Off In The Opposite Direction. I Felt So Stupid, But I Refused To Cry! I Refused!

                   ************

My Phone Continued To Blow Up As I Walked Into The House. I Turned My Phone Off And Walked Into The Kitchen. My Grandparents Still Weren't Home Yet, And I Was Completely Alone. Great...Just What I Needed. NOT!

I Hurried Upstairs, Changed Clothes, And Headed Into The Workout Room. I Guess I'd Get Myself In Shape For Basketball Season; Which Was Right Around The Corner.

          *[TWO HOURS LATER]*

Sweat Dripped From My Forehead As I Collapsed To The Ground. My Breathing Was Heavy And My Legs Were Shaking Something Serious. I Slowly Got Up And Made My Way Into The Bathroom. I Really Think I Overdid It And Now I'm Paying For It. I Began Running Me A Hot Bath And Started To Strip Out Of My Clothes Until The Doorbell Rang.

"What The Fuck!" I Snapped. I Hurried Downstairs And Stopped At The Door.

"Who Is It?" I Yelled.

"Elise." I Heard. My Fist Bawled Up As My Anger Rose.

"What Do You Want!?" I Snapped.

"Naomii Can We Talk? Please!" She Said.

"I Have Nothing To Say To You You Backstabbing Slut!" I Snapped.

"I'm Sorry!" She Said. I Swung The Door Open And Saw Her And Michael Standing There. I Shook My Head And Laughed.

"Y'all Got A Lot Of Nerve Coming Over Here." I Said.

"We Can Explain." Michael Said.

"No Need! I Wouldn't Have Believed It If I Didn't See It With My Own Eyes, But Now...I've Seen It! So Fuck You! And Fuck You! I'm Done!" I Snapped.

"Naomii." Elise Began, But I Slammed The Door In Their Face And Headed Back Upstairs. I Was More Pissed Than Hurt And The Way My Life Was Set Up...There Was NO MORE Miss Nice Naomii Skyee Smith!

                     **********

"Hey Baby Girl We're Home." My Grandpa Said. I Sat Up From The Couch And Stretched Out.

"You Look Exhausted. What Have You Been Doing All Day?" My Grandma Said.

"Well After Vaeh Was Released From The Hospital, I Walked Home, Did An Intense Workout, Soaked In The Hot Tub, And I Haven't Moved From This Spot Since." I Said.

"Well...Sounds Like You've Had A Day. How's Nevaeh?" Grandpa Asked.

"She's Better." I Said.

"That's Good. Have You Spoken With Your Mother?" He Asked.

"Nope." I Said.

"That's Fine. You'll Get Your Chance." Grandma Said.

"Meaning?" I Said.

"Your Mom Has Scheduled A Family Therapy For You And Nevaeh." She Said. Was She Joking?

"Therapy?" I Said.

"Yes. We'll Be Dropping You Off In The Morning." She Said. What The Fuck? I Sighed As I Laid Back Down. Tomorrow Was Gonna Bring A Lot Of Drama. And I Do Mean A LOT!
