Young

Chapter Two

I grabbed my bag and Kaapro's bag. I then grabbed Kaapro and walked downstairs. Don and Khaleed were sitting on the couch. (Khaleed in the mm.)
Don looked at me. "Where you going?" Khaleed asked as Don answered his ringing phone.
"Why does it matter. Your not my dad." I said mimicking the little boy off of vine.
"Listen you're only 16-"
"I know my age Khaleed. I know what I'm doing. So maybe you should worry less about me and worry more about yourself." I said grabbing my keys and walking outside. I was mad only because he done said my age in front of Don. I don't want Don not to mess with me because of my age. I mean. I don't want him to go to jail. But age ain't nothing but a number. -Aaliyah.
I was strapping Kaapro's car seat when I heard the front door open and close. I turned around to be face to face with Don.
"Can I help you?" I asked turning back around to finish fixing Kaapro's car seat. Making sure my butt was out.
I heard him clear his throat.
"Uh do you think you could give me a ride?"
"Oh I thought you was big balling. Mr. Business Man." I said closing the door.
"I am but my license is suspended."
"Oh and that should be a concern of mine because?"
He rubbed the back of his head. "Maybe it isn't your business." he snapped. I nodded.
I went to open my door then he grabbed my hand. "Look, I didn't mean that." I looked down at our hands. He let go of me.
"Look I didn't want to say why my license got suspended. It's embarrassing."
"Believe me nothing can embarrassing as having someone tell someone who is obviously older than you, your age."
"That's not embarrassing." he said quietly.
"Why is your license suspended?"
he sighed. "I was speeding. All the time."
"Don't you think after the first ticket, you would slow down."
"No. Not for the reason why I was speeding." he said looking at me.
"But I also thought you was a bad boy. You know. F the 12s." I said making him laugh. I liked his laugh. It was light but powerful.
"I'm like that if I didn't have the chance to go to jail for this."
"Come on get in the car." I said. I went to open the door but he got to it first.
"My mama taught me to make sure I open all doors for women."
"Your mother is a good woman than." I said getting into the car. I looked out the window to see Khaleed looking at Don. He had this look on his face like he was ready to kill. But then he smirked and mouthed You got a month.
I wonder what that was about. Don got in the car. then instructed me where to go. When we got to his house. He looked at me. Than put his hand on my thigh. Then rubbed it. "Thank you beautiful." he said. Then he kissed my cheek and got out the car. He smiled as he went in the house. I pulled off and called Megan.
"What Kay?"
"He rubbed my thigh and kissed my cheek."
"Who? Khaleed? You better call the 12s."
I rolled my eyes. 1,2,3. "Oh sexiness. "
"Yes Megan. How did we ever become friends."
"Friends since we were in our daddy's balls."
"Please tell me why I shouldn't hang up on you now."
"Cuz you love me and want me to tell you what does that mean..."
"Ok.."
"He wants you Kay Kay..." I smiled to myself as she went on and on about what he was possibly going to do next.
"Just ask Melvin when you come over."
I rolled my eyes. "Now for that stupid suggestion I'm hanging up on you." I said hanging up.
Melvin. Melvin.
He is Megan's brother. He's only a year older than us. I liked him for as long as I could remember. Then we had sex. After we done it a couple if times, we broke off whatever we was. And it was all because of a pregnancy scare. Nobody knew about us from my knowledge. So we try to hide off most of the things that were evident. Nobody knew I lost my virginity. Not Megan. Not my mother. Only Melvin's bum self. So yeah. That's the short story on Melvin.
I refuse to ask him anything. It'll just bring up old feelings I thought were gone.
