Suspicious Acts

Chapter 11!

"Come on mom! Why don't you believe me? I mean come on i just broke up with Dean and you expect me to go sleep with some guy i just met?"

"Well Annalisia, i just don't know any more. I mean you go with a complete stranger to their house, get drunk with them, and then over the phone i here him say good thing  she doesn't know we slept together? What am i suppose to think?"

"Just believe me mother! I have never lied to you before."

"Did you say you broke up with Dean?"

I looked my mother straight in the eye and nodded my head. Why is she bringing it up any ways? Its not like it is relevant to this conversation.

"Well Anna, maybe since you just broke up with Dean you could have felt lonley and vunerable. Then when what was his name again? When that boy Saw you all depressed and such he took advantage of you and you let him."

I gaped at my mother in utter shock. How could she think I was that depressed that i would sleep with a complete stranger?

My mom turned around and grabbed her phone off of the counter and dialed what i assumed was the doctors number. 

"Hi doctor can i make an appointment for my daughter, Annalisia? The reason for the visit? Well I want to make sure......"

I ran up stairs and into my room before i could hear the rest. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and checked my messages. I had fifteen texts from Dean saying stuff like i am sorry and please take me back and twenty calls from him. Then i saw a new number and quickly texted it back asking who it was.  Less then a minute later i got a message back and it said it was Shade.

Me: Shade hw did u get my nmbr ny wys?

Shade: Well while you were peacefully sleeping last night I grabbed you phone and took your number.

Me: Stalker! :)

Shade: You know you wanted me to take it. I mean you so can't resist me.

Me: Oh please. I can hardly stand to be texting you right now!

Shade: Sure sure. Any ways, how did things with your mom go?

I stared down at my phone reading the message Shade just sent me and wondered if I should tell him the truth.

Me: Well..........

Shade: Come on you can tell me.

I desperately searched my mind for a different topic to talk about and then i remembered something that happened when i woke up this morning.

Me: Who is Erin?

After about ten minutes of me waiting for an answer I slowly started to doze off. Right when i was about to fully fall asleep my phone went off.

Shade: I tell you about her but...... you got to meet me in person. Meet me at starbucks in ten. I ill be sitting at a table by the window.

Me: Okay. I will try to sneek out but I swear if I get caught I am blaming it on you.

I looked around for my sneakers and remembered they were down stairs.  I tip toed down the stairs quietly so no one would hear me but unfortunately my mother was still talking on the phone. Man was that phone call long. What were her and the doctor talking about any ways?

I rushed down the stairs and threw on my sneakers quick.  I whipped open the door rushed out and slammed it behind me. Then i ran as fast as i could. My mother ushed out the door and started yelling at me to come back but all i did was wave back at her and preceded to keep running.

Fifteen minutes later I arrived at Starbucks drenched in sweat. I saw Shade sitting at a table by the window and waved but he looked lost in thought and did not see me. I entered the store and was met by a wave of air conditioning and the fresh smell of coffee beans.  I hurried over to Shade and sat down beside him.

"Hey Shade."

"Hey Anna. Your late." Shade said in a half hearted attempt of sarcasm.

"Yeah well i had to run here, hence the sweat."

Shade smiled making his and my whole face light up.

"Even sweaty you still look as gorgeous as ever Anna."

I blushed and quickly looked away hoping he did not see it.

"Now before we talk about Erin I want to do this."

Shade got up out of his seat and stood in front of me. He leaned down grabbed my face and gently placed his lips on mine. He pulled away after a second but the warmth from is lips remained on mine.

"Anna, you see Erin is my......."

"Shade what ever it is I can handle it."

Shade took a deep breath and dragged his hand through his hair.

"Anna, Erin is my pregnant girlfriend.

I looked at Shade in disbelief and ran from the store.
