Her Freed Spirit

Chocoholic

"There you are beautiful. We have been awaiting your arrival" The voice sounds so velvety and smooth. "I especially have be waiting for you. I have waited my entire life for you. You don't understand how much I have wanted to be near you and just enjoy you. Open your eyes my love."

I take a deep breath while trying to calm my heartbeat. I slowly open my eyes to see the most beautiful creature the Higher Power has made. In front of my eyes is a giant Hersey Kiss. The one with the swirls of white chocolate. I turn and study the room. Everything in this room is made from chocolate. The windows, the furniture, the tables, even the decorations. Hundred of mini Hersey kisses are in the room just starring at me with love and appreciation.

The giant Hersey Kiss takes my hand and leads me to the dance for. "I love you" he says while twirling me around. "I love you back." I manage to choke out. I dip the giant Hersey Kiss and get ready to bit it's neck when......

"Sweet Pea wake up. Its time for you to get dressed for school." Uncle Mike says as he gentle shakes me.

"10 more minutes! I was so close to biting the giant Hersey Kiss!" I turn over to escape waking up.

"The kind with the white chocolate swirls??"

"YYYEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!" I let out a muffled scream from underneath my pillow.

"You know most people would be concerned about their niece dreaming about chocolate but you are a different breed. Creative just like your mom." I smile at the compliment of being like my mother. "Now get up and tame that jungle you call hair unless you want everyone at your school to call you Jane of the jungle. Breakfast will be ready in 20 minutes." I feel his weight leave my bed and soon after my door closes.

I get out of bed and stretch before heading into the bathroom to shower. 21 minutes later I am squeaky clean and my hair is tamed in a wavy ponytail. I decide to wear Black jean shorts that reach the middle of my thighs, a red V neck shirt that says 'don't let the sweetness fool you', and all black Nikes. I put in my multi colored ball earrings. What's life without a splash of color? I grab my keys and my pack back and head down the stairs for breakfast.

"Good morning Sophy" Jeremiah and Jaden call out once I enter the kitchen. I smile at them while getting a glass of water. Jamal is making white chocolate chip pancakes with fresh fruit for breakfast. I grab a seat next to Jaden as Jeremiah gives me a bowl with fruit in it. Uncle Mike walks in as Jamal puts the pancakes on the kitchen island. We say grace and begin eating breakfast.

"Have you guys met Sophy's boyfriend?" I gulp my entire glass of water to avoid choking on a strawberry.

I look up from my plate to see the entire table starring at me. "You didn't tell us you have a boyfriend. It better not be that a** Keith." Uncle mike looks like he is ready to kill someone.

"I do not have a boyfriend. And if I did it wouldn't be Keith."

"Yes you do! His name is Andre and he was here yesterday." Jaden says while smiling. Just throw me under the bus.

"Here? Like in the house here? Like in this space?" Jeremiah waves his hands in the air. I just nod.

"Once again, I do not have a boyfriend. I have a project in my Marine Biology class and he is my partner. I invited him over so we can work on it since I had to watch Jaden." I continue eating breakfast.

"Andre? The one in my shop class?" Jamal looks at me with frustration in his eyes. Who pissed in your juice?

"Yes him." I look into his eyes and see some emotion that I can not decipher. He looks away so I decide to ignore it.
