Lies, Tears & New Beginnings

Chapter 8: Confused Feelings

The next day all I could think about was Lil Nuk and his dawgs.

The week went by quick and it's already Friday and instead of going for a jog I did yoga in the game room, afterwards took a shower. As soon as I got out my phone started ringing.

"Hello."

"Hey, I notice you didn't go go for your morning jog, so where are you," Derrick asks.

"I'm at home, is everything okay," I ask worried about him.

"I'm okay, you coming to my game today?"

"Yup and you know it. I have to get dressed so I guess I'll be seeing you later," I say hanging up.

I throw on a spiderman shirt, blue skinny jeans, and spiderman converse, I put my hair in a ponytail and put on some blue lipstick, because I'm mixed and it looks good on me.

As I grab my things and walk out the door oh just guess who's outside leaning on the side of their Hummer. I walk over to my truck and he just stares at me before walking up to me.

"So this how we rockin' now? You haven't talked to me in some days, like what's going on?"

"I'm trying to get myself together okay, maybe I can explain this tonight if you come to the game with me or after the game I can come to your place?"

"Fine, meet me at my place and that must be yo lil boyfriend," he says pointing at a guy about to get in his car.

"Yeah, but right now I feel as if it's complicated. I don't know what to think," I say as he helps me into my truck.

"Oh okay, well if you got any problems you know the number, but ima gon ahead and let you go to school, see you later shorty," he says walking over to his Hummer.
