I could feel his arms wrapped around me as my eyes opened, adjusting to the sun's rays streaming through his window. I smiled to myself thinking about the events that took place last night as my head laid on his warm, bare chest. The good lord knew I didn't want to move, let alone leave, but I had to. I had to get ready for my game. Preston and Dez had nothing to worry about though; Coach had said since they'd missed so many games and days of school (because of me, when I'd been taken) that they couldn't play this year, but to try again next year. They were pretty cool with it though, mostly because there were barely even a handful of games left before the season was up. But as for smokey, his ass had quit and you could tell it was a relief to their Coach.
   
  Preston's torso moved slightly before I felt a warm kiss on my forehead. I smiled to myself.

"Good morning baby," he said in a groggily voice.

"Good morning," I said

"What time do you have to get to the bus?" He asked, referring to the bus that my teammates and I had to ride for out of town games.

"Ten I think," I said as he reached for his phone on the night stand.

"It's 9:13," he said making me curse under my breath and rise from his chest.

"You're coming to the game aren't you?" I said poking my lip out at him as I slid from under the covers on the other side of the bed. I grabbed my shirt off of the floor and began to quickly dress myself. He chuckled looking at me, causing my cheeks to burn red.

"I don't know why you trynna hide yourself from me, I saw it all last night," he licked his lips, "but of course I'm coming." He said as he got up and walked to the bathroom.
I was just about to grab my thong when Preston's head peeked from the door frame of the bathroom door.

"Babe?" He said in a soft voice.

"Yeah?"

"Can I have em?" He gave me a goofy smile.

"Have wh-" I looked down at my left hand where my thong was held. I rolled my eyes with a laugh, tossing it to him. "Guys are so weird."

"But you love my weird ass," he stuck his tongue out at me and ducked back into the bathroom. I sat on the bed to put my shoes on as I listened to the showers water turn on and spring from the shower head.

I tied my shoes and walked towards the bathroom. Steam was already fogging the mirror and glass that barely covered Preston's body as he stood against it under the water.

"Babe, I'm about to go back home and get ready. Call me and let me know when you're on your way okay?" I said, standing behind the shower's glass that separated Preston and me.

"Fa'sho- gimme kiss," he pushed the glass door open and poked his wet face from behind it. I laughed, standing on my tip toes and pecking his lips several times. He smacked my ass with his wet hand as I began to walk off. I flipped him off causing him to laugh.

I grabbed my keys from his dresser and made my way down the stairs. It kinda brought back memories. How Ess and Preston would race up & down the stairs together, how he'd throw me over his shoulders if I was mad at him and smack my ass as he carried me to our room, or even how I'd walk down and he'd be waiting for me to take us to school and he'd never forget to add a sly comment like "took you long enough" or "bring yah slow ass on." But it also reminded me that not too long ago, I was kidnapped and taken to the boonies where I witnessed several people die. My finger nails were still recovering from it.
