Keep In Touch (m.g.c Interracial)

Chapter 20

I sat in Chris's room just staring at the wall.

I spent the night at his apartment last night because I've just been having one of those weeks where everyone and everything gets on my nerves, so I didn't really want to stay home with my family.

I thought maybe he could make me feel better, but I knew there was only one person who could truly do that.

"Babe, what's wrong?" Chris questioned as he entered his bedroom.

"Oh, nothing." I say as I try to force a smile.

"Well good, because I want you to be completely alert today. I've been working so much lately I feel like I've barely seen you, so all day today want to show you just how much I've missed you."

Chris's sweet nothings and the kisses he was placing on my neck were all drowned out by my thoughts.

I just kept thinking about Michael, about the fact that today would be our one year anniversary.

Michael's P.O.V

"Hey, what's your name." smiled a pretty girl with dimples.

"Michael." I responded dryly

"Oh, nice to meet you Michael. I'm Rayna." she said with the same smile on her face.

I just nodded my head towards her attempting to put on a slight smile as well.

"Why are you just standing here holding up the wall?" she giggled a little.

I just shrugged lightly taking a sip of my drink, hoping she would get the hint that I don't want to be bothered and walk away, but unfortunately she did the complete opposite.

"Well, you seem down, and I think letting loose a little would make you feel better." she said to me as she dragged me to the middle of the club.

As I am standing here dancing with this girl honestly all I could think of was Dima.

It's like she's the only thing that has consumed my mind ever since I left her.

I know that I broke up with her and she should be the one feeling down and not me, but from the looks of it that's not the case. Her and Chris seem to be pretty happy, at least through Instagram they do.

Deciding I should just let her go the way she seems to have done me, I realized that this Rayna girl looks strangely familiar.

Tuning back into reality I recognized Rayna as the girl from Ron's niece's birthday party.

I guess my inebriated state didn't allow me to recognize her right away. But since I know who she is now, I may as well make the most of my current situation since even my sober self likes her.

As we continued to dance together and I actually began to enjoy myself, I decided to do the only thing I found appropriate at this moment.

"See, aren't you having more fun right now than you were just standing in the wall? " Rayna said with a goofy smile, which I will admit is pretty cute, as we continued dancing around looking stupid I'm sure.

To this I simply laughed.

Now that the music has slowed down a little and become a lot more sensual Rayna gave me a slightly mischievous look and then began to grind on me.

Not knowing what to do at first due to my shock I simply stood there but now that I realize that she isn't about to stop I decided to just go along with it.

Unexpectedly Rayna turned around and started kissing me.

As we continued making our in the middle of this club, Rayna stopped for a second giving me a lust filled look before speaking.

"I know how we could have even more fun." she said suggestivly with a smirk on her face.

"Oh really?" I simply replied waiting for her to say exactly what I knew she was about to.

"Yup, come with me."

As she took my hand and lead me out of the club, to her car, and finally to her apartment I only had one thing on my mind.

Getting Dima off of my mind, today would be our 1 year anniversary.

Walking into her apartment I didn't even have a second to look around she jumped on me kissing my neck before removing my shirt.

"My bedroom is straight down the hall." she said breathlessly
------------

"Babe, are you going to come with me to my sister's?"

Ending my phone call with Ashton I looked up at Rayna smiling.

These past 3 months with her have made me happier than I have been in a while.

Although Dima still crosses my mind sometimes.  Rayna has done everything she can to help me get over her, that's why I'm falling in love with her now.

"Yeah, I'll come."

"This is like a whole family dinner right?" I asked hesitantly

"Yup."

"So that means that your parents are going to be there?" I inquired with nervousness in my voice.

"Yeah, why?"

I simply shook my head trying to convince her that nothing was wrong.

After my response I heard her laughing.

"Oh my gosh Michael, are you nervous about meeting my parents?" she said once she finished laughing.

"I mean yeah, a little. Like what if they don't like me, what I get there and I just make everything awkward. You know how awkward it am."

The more I thought about meeting her family the more nervous I got.

The only person from her family I've ever met is her sister.  Even that was nerve-racking, and she's 3 years younger than me. I can't imagine meeting the people who actually made her.

"you'll be fine, I promise."

Right now we're at Rayna's sister's house and I'm pleased to say that rayna wasn't lying. Her family actually is really nice.

"What's wrong Michael?" Rayna whispered in my ear.

"Nothing"

"There's something wrong, and I'm pretty sure I know what it is." Rayna said giving me one of those looks that said she could see right through my bullshit.

Instead of replying I simply sat there silently remaining in my thoughts.

"I know what today is Mike."

"What do you mean?"

"I know today is her birthday. I heard you on the phone with Ashton earlier asking him if you should call to wish her a happy birthday or not."

I still didn't say anything because I didn't want to let her know that I am thinking about her yet again.

"I understand that she was the first girl you've ever truly loved, and probably still do love, but I just don't understand why you can't see that I'm the one that's here for you and trying to fix everything she broke. I just don't see why you can't love me the way that I love you all because of her."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm such a shitty writer.

I was going to start off Mikey's pov with some smut but I thought that would be a little too intense lol.

When I published chapter 19 I was going to do a double update and post this one too but I had such a hard time trying to finish it and I didn't want to give y'all 2 super bummy chapters.

Can y'all please comment your honest options on this story no matter how harsh because I feel like it's just going further and further downhill as far as the plot goes. So just let me know of everything makes sense to y'all and anything y'all would to see happen

Thank you to all 5 of my consistent readers and thanks to the 3 of you who vote. This honestly isn't sarcasm either, I really am thankful for you guys.
