No boundaries in Love (BWWM) // PAUSED!!!

So now you know

"You must have questions, and I have answers." Greg's mother said as she invited me into her home. I walked in, sat down on the beautiful black leather sectional. Ms. Anderson offered me a chocolate chip cookie and I happily took it off her hands."So Ms. Anderson" I started to ask while taking a bite of my cookie " why did you guys decide to move here?"

"Well sweetheart, after my husband died about 10 years ago one day we just decided to venture out. We had been living in New York in that very house since I was a little girl. And we also felt like New York didn't have anything else to offer us." She answered as her voice cracked a little.

I nodded my head in agreement. Sometimes we all just need a redo.

"Now." she began, "What's the real reason you are over here?"

"Yes ma'am. Well, I don't know how to say this but, has Greg ever experienced mood swings?" I asked her while finishing off my cookie. That was a big ass cookie. I'm going to have to take a few with me for the road, but that isn't important now.

"When you say mood swings, what exactly do you mean?" she questioned me as tightened her night robe.

"Personality wise." I answered. "One day me and him were flirting and kissing, then the next he's telling me he's gay, then the next he's angry because i'm back with my ex and kissed me again.

"She let out a lingering sigh that seemed to have a hint of worrisome behind it. "Yes. He has. It all started a couple of months after his father died. Greg had just turned 8. Out of no where he started to wear my clothes and lipstick, I thought this was a warning sign. I was perfectly okay with it and accepted my only child, but then a couple of days later it just stopped. It had went away. I thought it was just a phase and then it made a reappearance two years ago.

Greg was too embarrassed to go to school. So, I home-schooled him for a year then that's when we moved here. It was just too much trying to work, teach, and be a mother full-time. We have yet to go too a doctor because the personality switches are so infrequent. Every time I think they're gone, they comeback.

Now, I'm no doctor but I do have a tendency too play web-doctor." She said rustling through notes.

"Well Ms. Anderson, Web-doctor isn't always the best. Your son is going to prom with one of my best friends. I have not told anybody about what has been going on because it's nobodies business what happens in your personal home but he needs to know so that he can be treated properly" I say as I reached out for her hand. "I can promise you that you are not going to go through this alone. Here's my personal cell number. Please, don't hesitate to call me if you have any problems or concerns."

I scribbled my name and number in her notepad and handed back to her. "Thank you Emerald" she said as she got up and gave me a hug. She then walked me to the door and we parted ways.

Once I arrived back home I was exhausted.By this time everybody was sleeping (except for Evan who was probably out partying until the crack of dawn) So, I went upstairs took off my clothes then went too take a quick shower. After my shower I put on my night clothes and climbed in the bed and cuddled with Clover.

I swear I was sleep for all of five minutes when I heard I felt something hovering over me. I opened my eyes and jumped.

"Shhh. Calm down baby, it's just me. " Derrick said.

"Gosh dammit boy! Don't do that shit!" I quietly yelled. "Shit some guard dog" I scoffed as I looked over at Clover who was knocked out, sleeping underside down with her ankle in her mouth. She does have chew toys. I shook my head and looked over at Derrick who was looking mighty fine btw.

"What are you doing here?" I asked her as I scooted over to let him on the bed.

"Evan got shit faced drunk and since he picked me up I drove him home. My car is back at my place." he said as he began to rub on my thigh.
