Caught Up (SERIES PT. 3)

Pt. 13

"Everyone was so happy to see you. Felt good having you by my side after so long". We got into the car and I have to honestly say I really really enjoyed tonight. It was so nice, food was so good, just a great atmosphere.

"It was good seeing them too". I took out my phone and seen I had so bunch of missed calls from Frankie. I just closed my eyes and shook my head. It was almost 11 and I knew she could be wondering where I was. I put my phone back in my purse and looked out the window. "Hey, um I think ima call it a night and go home".

"Whats wrong ?".

"Nothing, you know I just have to get up and get ready for tomorrow, just wanna get all the sleep I can". He asked me if I was really sure and I told him yes. Although that wasnt the real reason why I wanted to go home. In one day I had so much fun and I feel like im getting too close to Jay though and I honestly dont want that. I mean yes I missed him, and he is a awesome guy despite our past but this isnt right and im not trying to go down this road I feel like im going down. In a sense I think I just need to distance myself just a bit. Jay went to the pier so we can catch the Ferry back. I was silent for most of the ride but Jay would make small conversation. I was there but then again I wasnt.

"Lana I know when something is on your mind. Whats the real reason you wanna go home". I stayed quiet but on the inside I was telling him everything, how I felt and all.

"Its shit you dont understand. Shit you wont understand. Listen, I know you trying to be here for me but I dont need you to be right now".

"Wow, alright ... I guess I'll drop it then". He turned on the radio and put his arm on the crease of the window leaning on it. It didnt bother me at all, I had more important things to worry about.

We got over to my side of Miami and he dropped me off home. I got my things out of the trunk and walked to the front door of my home. I was feeling all types of ways as far as how im doing Jay but he's just as blind as a 60 year old man. I went into the house and nobody was home, im guessing they are still at Frankie's mom house. I ran up stairs and changed out of my clothes. I knew I had to do something with this dress so I just put it in one of those plastic dress bags, rolled it up and tucked it deep under the bed. Didnt need Frankie finding that and going ham for the rest of her life. I fixed myself up, removed the makeup off my face and headed over to Ms. Lisa's house. I wanted to atleast show them im making an effort to be there.

FRANKIE'S POV

Lana not answering her phone is pissing me off by the minute. I was checking my phone every 5 seconds and still nothing. I called her cousin she didnt answer, I called Tracey she didnt answer. I even called her job and they said she left hours ago. Now I could be over thinking but shit been off lately like so off to the point where sometimes I dont even care anymore. Im doing what im suppose to be doing to show her im here, that I love her and we need to push through whatever we got going on. Its like we here but then its like she realizes something and then takes 10 steps back. Just when I thought things were going good for us, she shows me that im completely wrong.

"Frankie? You alright? You been staring at completely nothing for the past 5 minutes". My mom sat next to me and I didnt say anything. My phone started ringing and it was Des calling me back. I quickly got up and went outside.

"Yo where you at". She started giggling, sounded like she was out somewhere but that was making me more upset. Like dont call and you gone be doing all that cause right now aint the right time.

"The hell you yelling for? Im out with my homies why?".

"Des shut up. Is Lana with you?".

"Uh uh havent heard from her all day. What you did to my cousin that she had disappear on me?".
