Chapter 19: Home is where the parents are

Kimora's POV

"We're home!" I heard my parents from  upstairs. "Kimora are you awake?"

"Maybe she's sleeping, tomorrow is Monday." My dad said in a hushed tone.

Oh no, I have been waiting for this moment. There's no way I'm sleeping.

"Hello mother, hello father. How was Asia?" I descend the stairs. They both look up and I swear they almost pass out.

"K-k-Kimora?!" My mom stutters. "What the...what happened to you?"

"Oh you like my new look?" I twirl around for them. "I decided out with the old and in with the new. Shorter hair is so much easier to manage. And I think blonde really suits me don't you think?"

"What is that on your nose?!" My father demands looking ready to blow a gasket.

"Oh it's a nose piercing. I've always wanted one."

"We're gone for five weeks and this is what you turn yourself into? A cheap looking slut!" My mother yells.

"And that's not all. Look!" I pull up my shirt to reveal my tattoo.

"I think I'm going to faint." My mother sways on her feet.

"YOU GOT A TATTOO!?" My father roars.

"Well I mean I had this before you guys went to Asia, but I'm just showing it to you now."

"I KNEW THOSE INSIGNIFICANT, RUFFIAN FRIENDS YOU HAD WERE NO GOOD. YOU ARE BANNED FROM EVER HANGING OUT WITH THEM AGAIN!"

"And who's going to stop me? You?" I laugh. "Please, spare me. I'm finally doing what I want and not what you want."

"What has gotten into you?" My mother questions.

"Nothing I just got sick of you controlling my life. From now on it's Kimora's way or no way. And I'd like to see you try and stop me. Goodnight!" I blow them a kiss and skip upstairs feeling happier than I ever have before.

"My parents totally flipped out!" I recount the tale to Cheyenne and Reese over breakfast at school. Well only Reese since Cheyenne is too busy giggling at her phone screen.

"Wow I think maybe we should stop hanging out. I'm becoming too much of a bad influence." Reese smirks leaning back in his chair. 

"Hello did you hear me?" I wave my hands in Cheyenne's face. She doesn't notice so I snatch her phone.

"What the hell?" She says. "Give that back!"

"You weren't even listening to me. What could be more important?" I glance at her text messages. My eyes widen.

"You and Sebastian are dating!?" I screech.

"You'd know if you bothered to check in these last few days." She glares at me. You totally went MIA on me at the game on Friday. If you hadn't, I would've told you I met Sebastian's family. His mom invited me to dinner at their place. She loves me, I'm now apart of the family, and Sebastian officially asked me to be his girlfriend!" She breaths heavily after finishing.

Wow. I'm a bad friend.

"Well this has officially gotten too girly for me. I'm out." Reese stands up.

"Oh no you don't." I block his path. "You have a lot of explaining to do."

"About what?"

"Two words: Krystal. Parker."
