Peer Pressure is a Motha

This night can either make or break Terek and I. There really is no telling what may take place tonight the way we have been at each others throats lately. One minute we are up and then the next we are down. I told my mom I was going over Aniya's house to kick it, although I'm almost eighteen, Lord knows that ain't no way she is going to allow me to go over a boy's house. To be completely honest I feel horrible for lying to my mom but what is done is done. However, my gut instinct is telling me something good is not going to come from tonight.

phone vibrates:

I am outside.

Well here goes nothing....

"What's up baby!" Terek says

"Hey love," I reply

" I picked up a couple of movies for us to watch and I will over some pizza when we get to my house." Terek says sweetly.

"Okay babe I'm down." My mood is slowly changing for tonight maybe it will not be as bad as I thought.

After twenty minutes of an awkward silent drive, we pull in front of Terek's home on the south side of Battle Creek. I honestly did not know he lived on this side of town and his home is very nice. As we get out the car and walk up the circle driveway he puts his arm around my shoulder and I'm starting to feel all warm inside. It's crazy because we have been arguing constantly the past few days; I guess face to face interaction really does change everything. We get in the house and he directs me to the living room that we will be watching our movies in for the night.

"You have a really nice home, I honestly did not expect you to be living on the south side of town." I told him while admiring the decor of the living room.

"What did you expect me to live in the hood? Did you want anything to drink" Terek says back with a laugh.

"Nah, I'm just saying I know you wear nice clothes all but you living like the Cosby's." I say back jokingly.

"Well I mean my granddad he does own 3 barbershops."

"Oh yeah you did tell me that huh?" I said.

Terek goes over to put his favorite movie in, Boyz N the Hood. I take a seat on the lover's seat directly across from the TV. Terek walks over and sits on the lover's seat right next to me, and puts his arm around me. This night is not going bad at all.

"You know I love you right?" Terek asks while stroking my hair.

"Yeah I know you do. I just hate that we argue so much about the dumbest things." He better stop playing with my hair before I fall asleep on him.

" I do too but you really got to learn how to chill." Terek said

"I know Tee but I just do not like feeling that my feelings are being played with."

" I refuse to hurt you FayFay."

We look into each others eyes intensely for at least a minute. Next thing I know we are kissing for about thirty minutes and all of the arguments we have had recently really do not matter at this moment. As we are kissing, his hands began to start exploring over my body and I am starting to get uncomfortable with being touched like this. He starts trying to kiss on my neck. OH NO, not having that I will not live another day if I go home with a hickey on my neck. I nudge him away from me and sit up for a minute.

"What is the problem now?" Terek asked a tad irritated.

"You doing too much and you out of all people know my mama do not play no games. Plus I do not want us to go too far tonight; I am not ready for all of that." I said wholeheartedly

"Here you go... FayFay you trust me?" Terek asked sincerely

"I do." Only when he gives me reasons to trust him.

We start back kissing again and he continues to touch me in forbidden places. This time though I'm not so tense but just going with the flow. The more we kiss and the more I fall into the moment, the further things begin to go. Of course I have done the unthinkable and I just lost something I can never get back. I lay there after trying to wrap my head around what really just happened.

Niya I really need to talk to you! I cannot believe what I have just done.
