I don't even know why I even ran. I shouldn't even be jealous or think of Derek in this way.
I stopped in an alley way to catch my breath. I was bent over with a hand on my chest. When I saw that Derek ran right past me in stood up and looked around the corner to see if he was still there. Someone grabbed my hand and I screamed . I tried to pull my hand away but the person held onto me tightly. "Hey baby girl" His voice was rough like sand paper.
It was times like this when I needed Derek the most.
"How about you get on your knees for a 50?"
"Fuck no dude!" I remember what my mom taught me to do in a situation like this. I kicked him in the stomach and elbowed him in the face before taking off running. I never stopped to look back. My legs started to hurt so I slowed down when I got to my block. I put my hair up in a ponytail with a hair tie in found on my hand. I really needed right about now. But after running off, I had no idea where he was.
Most of the street lights were turned off since it was already past 12am. Luckily I was smart and kept our house light on and put a spare key in the pot next to the door.
I unlocked the door and kicked off my shoes. I walked into the kitchen and pulled out my phone to see that I had ton of missed calls from Derek and one from my dad. I grabbed a water bottle and decided to call my dad back.
"Hey Jay. Your mom and I got there safely and we expect you and Derek on the road by 10am. Get some sleep and don't stay out too late. Love you baby" he hung up and I jogged up the stairs.
I texted Derek and told him to be over at my house by seven.
Text
Derek- can you open the door so we can talk.Jayde-Talk about what?
Derek- well why did you run away from me when I called you're name.
Jayde- I just wanted to go home.
Derek- Well you could've at least waited for me. You could've gotten hurt.
Jayde- well it looked like you were busy. I can take care of myself. I don't need help walking home or crossing the street. I think I can handle it
Derek- but you're still like a little baby. What if some random guy tried to hurt you.
Jayde- says the almost 20 year old who can't cook to save his life.
Derek- I'm only 18
Jayde- I feel like you're but okay
Derek- so should we just moved in from that and to back to being besties? I miss you already.
Jayde- .......sure.....
Jayde
That word made my stomach turn and made me want to throw my phone across the room out of anger. Maybe us being together isn't going to turn out so great.I mean most of the time when best friends end up dating it ends horribly and I really don't want to loose a friend.
Especially one like Derek. He means too much for me to let him go.
I knew I said I would be posting this tomorrow but I wanted to post this tonight so Vote|Comment and all that good stuff. There might be lot of miss spellings so I'll go through them tomorrow.
