Love Me Tomorrow

Chapter 5

Keira:

         Charice wan't mad about me missing lunch, instead she wanted to meet up for dinner. I decided to invite Malik and his childhood friend, Ashlee. We sat waiting for Charice who is usual late.

        She claims to be "fashionably late", but anyone who knows Charice knows she is a big flirt and she's probably flirting with football players.

        Ashlee kept grinning at me and since I didn't know the girl it was starting to creep me out. "Stop grinning!" I giggled. "I'm looking at the most gorgeous girl on campus." Ashlee teased. "Yeah, it's whatever." I mumbled.

        "He seemed like a stalker."Malik stated taking a sip of his drink.

        I mean I'm use to it, people follow my dad, Seth and Lacey on twitter and they talk about me. Some of their followers even follow me on twitter and instragram. I'm not bothered by what Trey said, I guess it made me uncomfortable.

        Finally Charice arrived and she had a girl with her. The girl had long thick black hair and she had a nose ring. "Hey guys this is Alejandra." Charice introduced her as she and the girl sat down at the table, joining us.

       "So Keira... You're Ken Lansing's daughter?" Alejandra asked. " Yeah." I said. "That is so cool. My dad loves to watch him on ESPN. Then my brothers love your brother Seth. They go to his games all the time." Alejandra explained with a thick accent. "Are you from Arizona?"I asked. "Yeah. I'm from Flagstaff." Alejandra replied. You could tell that Alejandra is Hispanic, her accent gave it away, probably Mexican.

         "So Ashlee how long have you and Malik gone to school together?" I asked. "Back and forth since Kindergarten."Malik replied. "Back and forth?" Charice questioned. "My parents were in the service, so I lived everywhere. Mostly back and forth from Coconut Grove and Virginia Beach." Ashlee replied. "That's amazing both of your parents were in the service."I said. "Well they still are. My mom is in the Air Force an my dad is in the Marines." Our food came and we all began eating. I'm really excited that we all were together it seemed that we all had so much in common.

          Malik began staring back and forth between Charice and I. Before I could say anything Charice began speaking, "So Malik, Keira, my sources say that Trey was there today. He hurt his ankle." Malik rolled his eyes. I guess that's why he was looking at me. Him and I both know that Charice is a big mouth and Miss Gossip.

         "You know Trey?"Alejandra asked. Ashlee began grinning as I replied,"Yeah, we've had a few encounters, but like most people he knows me as Seth's little sister...." Ashlee began clearing her throat,"There's more." I sighed. "Fine, he called me the most gorgeous girl on campus." All the girl were silent, while Malik just rolled his eyes.

       Ashlee shrieked, "Girl you have to date him!" I made Ashlee quiet before people noticed us. "Ash, no I don't even know him like that." "He's not lying. You are gorgeous and he's hottest guy on campus. Do you think that?" Alejandra said. "Fine! Yeah he's hot, but can I want to focus on my career. I want to get my degree, not date athletes and go through drama." The girls groaned. "Keira, don't be uptight. Have fun and enjoy yourself. You never know him and you might end up becoming something more." Charice responded. I can't deny it, I do have feelings for Trey.

Trey:

             I was chilling on my bed, when I knocked came on my door, "Come in." I said. The door opened and it was Coach. "How's the ankle?" He asked. "Just sore. The athletic trainer took good care of me." "That's good, your mom called worried." "Yeah I usually don't get injured,or even get into fights with my teammates, or my teammates deliberately hurt me." Coach sighed,"I'm sorry about Johnston, I don't know his issue, but if he continues, I might have to suspend him."

          I was silent for a couple second before I said something, "So Coach, if a player has a child, does he have to tell you?" "Yes. He can't hide that from me or the NCAA. Why? You got a child?" "Just curious." I mumbled. Coach lifted an eyebrow,"You know about Shawn's child don't you?" Shit. I guess I made it really oblivious that I knew about it.

          "Yeah, I know about it. Was it really really hard to learn about it?" "Of course, I want the best for Shawn, but I am very proud he didn't even abandoned baby. He took his responsibilities and takes very good care of his son." "Do you know anything about the baby's mom?" I asked. "Her and Shawn have their issues, but I know the baby will be at our games this season." Coach replied. "Is there a consequences if we get a girl pregnant?" I questioned. Coach took a long pause before answering, "Just know that it's unacceptable."

          Coach left and now I was just waiting on Jesse. Jesse is my best friend, we've known each other since the sixth grade. He knows a lot about me, especially my issues with my father. My phone began ringing and I answered the phone, " What do you want Alfred?" He was the last person I want to talk to. "That's not the way you address me." The person on the other line snapped.

       I sighed, "What do you want?"

     ''That's better Alfred Cashmere." He replied.

     "It's Trey Cashmere." I corrected.

       "How's Miami?" He asked. "Fine. Season starts in a couple weeks." "Devin and I will be sure to come to your games. Will your mother and her husband be in attendance?" "Don't know, does it matter?" I said annoyed. I could hear Tabitha in the background. Tabitha had always been a nice person, but I never understood why she is even with someone like Alfred.

         I broke the silence that went on for a couple minutes, "Look I was wondering if you could help buy something." "Can't your mother do it?" Alfred whined. "Alfred, you and I both know money is tight for them. So you can fuck off and help me out." "I'll do it as long as you pay me back, Trey." I hung up the phone asJesse entered the room with a plate of food.

        "There are some many fine girls. Man, I think I'm in love, looks like we'll be doing some flirting tonight." Jesse said taking a bite of his food. "Man worry about getting your sports management degree, so you can be my agent." I joked. "Have you found someone special yet?" Jesse asked me while I was stuffing my mouth with food.

         Great. I didn't want to explain myself to everyone. "A little. I like Ken Lansing's daughter." "Still? Man, you don't want you. You don't even know her." I gave Jesse a glare. I guess he already forgot about Keira going to college here. "Dude, she's enrolled here." Jesse begin to laugh showing his left dimple, he felt really stupid. Shit, I felt stupid for him. "I don't think she likes me, but she's like the most gorgeous girl here." "Man you never know. Show her a good time and she'll began to fall for you. Believe me." I took another bite,"She better not be like a Tatum." "I hope so too, or we can't be friends anymore." Jesse and I both laughed as I sat back and began thinking about Keira. Man, I really wish she liked me like I liked her.
