Today was thanksgiving. Winter had decided that he wanted to introduce Jade to his family. Yes. Winter wasn't the cliché "thug". Winter had a family; a father, a mother, a younger brother, and a little sister.Winter walked into the bedroom to see Jade sitting on top of her suitcase in nothing but some panties.
"Why you not dress?" Winter asked.
"I don't want to go" Jade said.
"Why not?"
"Cause I don't know those people what if they feel some type of way about me?"
"Look. You love me right?" Winter asked as he kneeled down In front of Jade and took her hands.
"Yes"
"Okay then don't think about them think about me. We love each other so they can't say nothing" Winter expressed.
"But baby. I'm sixteen, you're twenty-six. What if they say something about that"
"Look let em talk. They my family but they don't determine my life" Winter said.
"Okay"
"Good" Winter said and bit Jades nipple. Jade laughed.

Jade and Winter stepped out of the car. They had arrived in Illinois two hours ago; once they got settled into their hotel room they took off to Winters parents house.
Winter knocked on the door and a woman answerd she looked to be in her thirties; but being Winters mother she had to be older."Oh baby. I'm so happy to see you" the woman said and pulled Winter into a hug.
"I'm happy to see you to ma" Winter told his mom.
"Come in" the woman said.
Winter and Jade walked inside the house. Jade looked around and noticed all the family photos.
"Kids. Henry" the woman called out. A man came from what looked like the kitchen and two teenagers walked down the stairs.
"BIG BRO" the girl screamed as she ran into Winters arms.
"Hey Niomi" Winter laughed as he hugged the girl.
"I missed you" she said. The girl then looked to me and her happy expression changed. "Who you?" She asked.
"Chill Ni. I miss you too. And this my girl Jade" Winter said and pulled me to him by my waists.
"Well let's eat and get to know each other" Winters mom said.

"So Devin how's life going?" Winters dad asked.
"It's Winter dad. And good" Winter answered.
"Last time I checked I signed a birth certificate for Devin. Your my son I'm not one of your little followers" his dad said again.
"So. Jade is it. Why you with my brother?" Niomi asked.
"I-I love him" Jade said nervous. She had never had a dinner like this. She was use to eating in silence or getting scolded about waisting food or her elbows on the table.
"Oh really? So you not just fucking him for his money baby girl" Niomi said smirking.
"Chill Ni" Winter scolded.
"Don't call me that" Jade whispered.
"What? I can't hear you" Niomi teased.
"I SAID DONT FUCKING CALL ME THAT" Jade yelled.
"Aye baby calm down" Winter said as he rubbed jades thigh.
"Stop Niomi. I apologize for my sister" Winters brother said.
"I'm Hj by the way" he added."Hi" Jade said.
"So how did you two meet?" Henry asked.
"I was stealing from a corner store and ran into him" Jade said.
"Wow not what I expected" Henry said.
"Stealing why?" Winters mom asked curiously.
"I'm a foster child" Jade answered.
"How old are you?" Henry asked. He had finally took a good look at Jade and took notice of how young she looks.
"Twenty" Jade lied.
"Sixteen. Seventeen in two months" Winter confessed.
"Bih what? You a hoe. I'm fifteen and you won't catch me with no man ten years older" Niomi laughed. Jade put her head down.
If had been said by anyone else she wouldn't care and would have taught them a lesson but it was the man she loves family."Devin? Sixteen really?" Henry asked.
"What? She my girl and I love her if y'all got a problem with that then to bad" Winter said.
"I'm just saying that's hoe shit" Niomi continued on.
Jade sat staring at the wall as tears ran down her face. She was hurt. In her head she knew that Winter would choose his family over her.
"See this the shit I'm talking about. This why y'all haven't seen me in damn near five years. Niomi you fifteen watch yo damn mouth and stay in yo place. Dad you make me so sick. You got mama pregnant when she was seventeen and you was twenty-five. So what now? Ma I love you and Hj I love you too but I'm out" Winter expressed.
