New Stepbro Huh?

Awkward

POV: Toya's
Day: Saturday
Time: 5:30PM
Place: Walking on the Sidewalk

I decided to walk to Jac's house. It isn't that far and I needed some time to think. Bre and the rest of the crew are going clubbing. By the time I get back, they should be gone.

When I finally got to Jac's house, I was shocked. This place is huge.

I went up to the front door and rang the doorbell. He came to the front door looking stressed, wearing a T-Shirt, basketball pants and socks.

Jac: "Thanks for coming."
Toya: "Not a problem." (fake smile)

He let me in and told me where Alana's room is. They locked themselves in there. As I was about to walk up the stairs, he stopped me.

Jac: "I know when you're fake smiling, you know."

"After all these years, you should." I continued walking up the stairs. I turned right down the hall and came to a hot pink door. I knocked on it.

Alana: "Go away, daddy!"

"It's me... Toya." I heard walking and then the door opened. They let me in and locked the door. They really don't wanna see Jac.

POV: Jac's
Day: Saturday
Time: 9:45PM
Place: Kitchen

It's been 4 hours since Toya went up there. It started raining and the roads are flooded. She can't get home. She wouldn't know it's raining though because both of the twins' rooms are soundproof so they'd be able to sleep during storms. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs so I got up and walked over. Toya. "Well?"

ToyA: "They're fine."

I don't know what came over me but I pulled her into a bear hug. "Thank you so much."

Toya: "Say some sh-t like that to them again, and I will cut you."

I pulled away and looked at her. She was really serious. "I won't. Will they talk to me?"

Toya: "They're asleep. I'm leaving."
Jac: "You can't. The roads are flooded."
Toya: "So I'm stuck here?"
Jac: "Pretty much."
Toya: "Dang." (plopping down on the sofa)
Jac: "You want anything to eat..drink?"
Toya: "Nope. No thanks."

"Well okay." I went back into the kitchen and made myself a sandwich. I wonder how this is gonna work out. When I was done, I made my way upstairs. I took a shower, brushed my teeth and threw on some sweatpants. I don't have to wear a shirt, this is my house. I walked back downstairs to see Toya half asleep on the sofa. I walked over to her and shook her. "Aye.."

Toya: (rubbing her eyes) "What?"
Jac: "I'll get you some clothes and you can sleep in the guestroom."
Toya: "Uhhh..Thanks."

I grabbed her hand and went upstairs. I let her wait outside my room while I got a t-shirt and some boxers for her. I showed her to the guestroom and the bathroom then gave her the clothes. "Night."

Toya: "Night."

Awkward...

POV: Toya's
Day: Sunday
Time: 9AM
Place: Guestroom

The next morning I woke up happy not to be in the same little room. I slowly got up and made the bed. I walked over to the drawer and looked in the mirror. I loosed my hair out of the bun and it fell right down my back.

I walked out of the room and down the hall. I went downstairs and into the kitchen to see Jac cooking. He cooks now? "Morning."

Jac: (looking at me) "Morning." (looking back at the stove) "You could sit, you know."

I sat down awkwardly at the counter and ran my finger over the edge of it.

Jac: (resting a plate down in front of me) "What's wrong?"
Toya: "Everything."
Jac: "What you mean 'everything'?"

Isn't it obvious? "Never mind."

Jac: (sitting beside me and eating) "I'm sorry."
Toya: "For what?"
Jacob: "For everything."
Toya: "Me too." (putting down the fork) "I'm just gonna get going.."

Before he could say anything else, I dashed upstairs. I couldn't handle how awkward that was. I put on my clothes and placed his clothes in the laundry bin. I stuffed my phone in my pocket and made my way towards the door.

Jac: (standing behind me) "Atleast let me drive you home."
Toya: "The last time I was in the car with you..You threw me out on the sidewalk next to the rehab center. I rather walk." (about to walk out of the door)
Jac: (pulling back on my hand) "You know I still care about you right?"
Toya: "Sometimes...It's hard to tell."

I yanked away from him, "Tell the twins I love them." I walked off.
