My Kind of Love

Prologue

I was planning on staying in all day watching "the office" re-runs and face timing Seth, today. But my dreams were shattered when Danielle (I don't really like calling her Mom) yelled from downstairs to get ready to go to the grocery store. Now, mind you if this was the mall I would've been all over it. I really needed to take a trip to Sephora and get some make up for the reunion tonight.

For a while I acted like I couldn't hear Dani. It didn't seem to work though because she came storming into my room, heels on and purse and shopping list in hand. "Get your ass up." She exclaimed like an older sister would.

I shook my head and stared her down. But that didn't do anything because I got my rebellious streak from her. "I'll let you borrow my makeup for tonight."

I was already up and yanking on some combat boots before she finished the sentence. Everything my ... *swallow* mother owns in pure sex. Not sexy but sex. There was no other way to describe it. She was a whore and we both knew it. Just didn't talk about it. But if she offered me her makeup collection for a month, I would start standing up for her when my girl peers bashed her (obviously jealous that a thirty something year old woman could be that gorgeous and in such high demand) and when my guy friends objectified her.

"I'll be in the car." She says turning around to go downstairs.

After looking in the mirror- satisfied by my hammer time pants, crop top, and beanie- I race down the stairs. Not wanting to miss an opportunity to have all access to Dani's enticing makeup collection.

The car ride consisted of Danielle going on and on about how she was way overdue for a trip to the store, so when we pulled in the parking lot of the Jewel Osco, I was more than relieved.

Not taking any time to glance back in her direction, I bolted for the automatic doors that greeted the customers.

I noted a few items she said we needed while in the car.

.... Bread.... Eggs...... Milk..

The cold air from the refrigerated section made me shiver. I should've took two seconds to grab a sweater before jumping straight into Danielle's male sex trap of a car.

Organics milk... Organics milk...

This stuff was harder to find than it looked. I gave a retired sigh. I'd much rather be vandalizing some important part of the city, but for that makeup, unfortunately a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

So while standing, teeth chattering and still searching for milk, I saw them. First, Seth. I'd recognize those flexing shoulder muscles anywhere, he was hunched over, cradling something. His dirty blonde hair was closely cropped and looked so soft, I needed to touch it.

"Seth?" I asked. He obviously didn't hear me. Too distracted. With what, I didn't know...

I shagged out my pitch black hair to create a blanket covering my face. With this disguise, I walked passed Seth, in front of him, to see what was soo mesmerizing, he didn't hear his girlfriend calling his name.

Rounding Seth, once in front of the broodingly tall guy my mouth seemed to be permanently agape. I got it together before they both turned to see me looking helplessly shocked.

A girl stood in front of him. Suffocating his face with her lips. While her hands caressed his neck-something I do when Seth and I kissed. He was ferociously kissing her, but his head was completely still. He made a moaning sound, and the girl's lips smiled before going back inside his mouth.

"Seth, what the hell?!" I said quietly, but the rage spoke volumes.

They both jolted up. The girl's blonde hair spinning around her, making a golden halo at her waist. The flower crown headband she wore barely moved from her head. They slightly shifted apart, to face me but they were still holding each other. Once Seth finally realized who I was, his arms and any physical contact he had with the girl, dropped immediately.
