Chapter 14!!!!
I was nervous yet excited. If it wasn't for him being so shy about his family, I would never do this. But here I am. Doing something risky and stupid.
"Just be polite and quiet. Don't make any sudden movements." He laughed.
"Don't laugh! This is serious!"
"Fine!" Oh no. I just remembered. Oh god how could I forget? I had never told my dad about Daimion! This whole time. Three months. Maybe my mom told him. Maybe, just maybe...
We got into my car and left. I was silently freaking out inside. I decided it was better if I didn't tell Daimion until we were in the drive way. What a stupid ass idea, I would sure think later.
"Now you need to know something before we go inside," I held his hand.
"Shoot."
"My dad doesn't know...about you." He stopped everything. Breathing, smiling, playing nervously with his thumbs. Daimion looked surprised. I would be surprised too. I mean, if I was him. I wouldn't be surprised if his family didn't know who I was.
"I'm sorry. I guess it just...slipped my mind."
"It's fine. Let's do this." He grabbed my hand and we trotted inside. I jiggled the door open. My dad sat on the couch watching ESPN. I caught my breath.
"Dad?" I called. Our hands stayed intertwined. He came in to the dining room where we sat. My fathers eyes scanned Daimion skeptically. Sweat dripped down my face. What would he say? He was so picky. I had only brung home a guy once, and that was You Know Who.
"What is this?" He said leaning on the table.
"Uhmm, this is Daimion West. He's my boyfriend."
"And you think you can just bring home a guy like this? What's his last name again?"
"Daimion West."
"West. West. Oh, West! He's uh---"
"Let's go." Then Daimion grabbed my hand and pushed himself out of the chair. He pulled us through to the door.
"What's wrong?" I whispered. No answer. We just kept going out to the car. And fast. My dad ran after us, full of anger.
"Get back here! Jaclyn! I don't want you with that boy!!" I had no clue what my dad was talking about. All I knew that he MUST have been drunk. I didn't ask or anything, but my dad looked seriously drunk. It seemed like he thought that Daimion was some creep or criminal.
"Can we just get out of here?" He asked putting the car in reverse.
"Well where to.."
"My house. You mine as well know now." Know what? And then Daimion just drove. He drove. About 15 minutes later I had an idea of where we were.
I think there's a bigger story here. But I was afraid of what that story was.
***Cliff hanger! Keep going!!!! ---------->****
