Love Me Tomorrow

Chapter 20

Seth

        I still can't believe this! My dad promised me he would never put Keira and I down this road again. He could have killed someone or he could have killed himself. Lacey left and she's in California shooting for her gig, so I had to bail Dad out of jail. Now ESPN has suspended Dad indefinitely. This is bad, Dad might just lose his job.

          My cousin, Khalil followed me into the living room and watched me lay on the couch. "So what are you going to do about your dad?" Khalil asked me. I sighed,"I don't even know. It's so upsetting this situation, and Lacey took London and left, so she's not here by his side." "What about Keira? Shouldn't she be here?" "No, I want her to focus on studying. I got everything."

          The doorbell ringed and I went over to the door. "Who's at the door?" Khalil asked. I looked outside the door. I knew exactly who it was. "It's probably somebody selling something." I lied. I went out the door and the guy stood there. "Do you have the stuff?" I asked him. "Of course." He nodded.

       He opened his long leather black coat and pulled out a brown envelope. "Everything you want is inside." He told me. I had a smirk on my face. I've been waiting for a couple days for this, and I finally had it. "Thank you." I told the guy and gave him $400 hundred in cash,"I'll pay the rest later." I said as I walked in with the envelope.

         I opened the envelope and took a quick glimpse of it. Yeah, he was right everything I wanted was there.

        I pulled up into the driveway of my mom's house. Keira was asleep, she looked so peaceful sleeping. I hated to disturb her. My mom stood at the front door, she knew I was coming. She came towards the car and I smiled as I saw her.

        "Trey, everyone is going to be so surprised to see you." Mom said as I started to take out Keira's suitcase from the trunk. "Um, Mom I brought someone with me who you need to meet." I replied."Need to meet?" Mom questioned. Keira awoke and she noticed my mom staring right right at her. "This is my girlfriend, Keira." I introduce Mom to Keira.

Keira

   

           I smiled at Trey's mom as he introduced us. "Hello Keira, I'm Melissa, Trey's mom." Melissa said to me giving me a hug. "Nice to meet you, Melissa." I said. "So how long have you two been dating?" Melissa asked. Trey and I looked at each other. Trey awkardly laughed, "For a couple months." Melissa lead me into the house.

         The house was an average single family home. It seemed spacious. Melissa had dozen of photos everywhere, some of them were Trey and other kids. "Your mom sure likes to take photos." I observed. "Well my great grandma took a lot of photos when I was staying with her. My mom worked 3 jobs and she couldn't take care of me, so I stayed with my great grandma." "Are these your twin sisters?" I asked pointing at the pictures of twin girls. "Yeah, Nicole and Nayla. My mom got married and had Tyson then the twins." Trey replied.

           Melissa came in and she took a sip of her drink in her teacup. "So Keira, tell me about yourself." "Well I'm studying to be an athletic trainer and my dad in Ken Lansing." "I was going to say you remind me of him." Trey stood quit as Melissa and I talked. I could tell something was bothering him but I didn't know what.

          This trip to his home is very suspcious to me. I let out a yawn, I couldn't hold it back, I'm so tired. "Baby, you can go lay down. My bedroom is the first room on the left." Trey told me. I nodded and went up to the room he told me.

Trey

          My mom gave me a look as Keira went upstairs. "You're staying in the same room as her?" She asked me. "Mom, she's my girlfriend." "Trey. I don't want you to make the same mistakes I made." "I'm not having sex with Keira. Don't worry Mom."
