A Good Kind of Change

Good Mornin'

I wake up the next morning hella disoriented. Then I realized I spent the night at Colin's house. I smile to myself and stretch. I check my phone and realize that it's a little after ten.

"Good mornin' Carolina..." Colin said from behind me.

"Good mornin' Colin." I say as I turn around. He's sitting on the edge of the bed in nothing but a pair of basketball shorts.

I grab his hand and pull him down so he's laying halfway on top of me. He chuckles and wraps his arms around me and I wrap my arms around his neck.

"Gimme a kiss." Colin says looking down at me.

Colin cups my cheeks and I place my hands on his hips. We kiss slowly.

"It is now officially a good mornin'"

"Yes it is Mr. Kaepernick." I say scratching my nails down his abs. He leans down and moans in my ear.

"Mmm. That feels good..."

I trail kisses up and down his neck feeling him halfway come apart. I wonder what it would be like if we ever had...never mind. I gotta stop.

I reluctantly stop kissing and scratching and the look on his face was priceless. He was just standing there wide eyed with his mouth open.

"Yo Kap, you need a cold shower or what?"

"I cannot believe you just did that to me. I have been so nice to you and all you do is tease me! You can't be doin' a homie like this. It's a crime."

He gets up and walks downstairs.

I come behind him and I trail my fingers up and down the curve of his back looking into his eyes.

"Oh it's a crime? You wanna punish me?" I say smirking at him.

"The things I could do to you. You have no idea."

"You wanna show me?"

What the hell did I just get myself into?

I don't wait for an answer and I hop down off of the counter and walk upstairs to his room. I try as hard as I can not to laugh as I hear him rush up to his room. He slams the door and pulls me to the bed with him.

We kiss frantically, needing each other, wanting to feel each other. Then his phone rings. I see that it's his mom and I hand him his phone.

"Hey Mama... Oh you heard... Her name is Shanya."

Oh my gosh his mom heard...

What does she think...

What if she doesn't like me..

Oh my God...

I fall back onto the bed and close my eyes. Colin cuddles me to him and continues to talk to his mom.

"Yeah Ma. I'll ask her. I promise. Okay... Love you too mama... Bye."

"So my mom wants to meet you... Well my whole family does."

I sigh nervous as hell. "When?"

"She wants us to come over for supper soon. Do you wanna go?"

"Yeah it'll be fun! I'd love to meet your family Colin."

"Really? Mama is gonna be so happy. I haven't brought someone home since college..."

"Good. You ain't need to be bringin' random chicks home to Mama Kap."

"I regret all that shit now that I have you Shanya. No one else can compare."

"Colin, I'm glad you feel that way. I'm so glad you care about me. Gosh it's so hard to explain my feelings. I have always wanted to meet you. I would be like "what if I ever met Colin, that would be the best thing ever" but I never thought I would have this with you." I say. Then I quickly cover my face with a pillow.

I think I should slow down and see exactly how he feels after a while. I feel him pry the pillow away from me and I open my eyes to his brown ones.

"Don't hide from me. It's okay. I'm not gonna freak out or anything."

He pulls me on top of him and looks into my eyes. "Shanya don't ever hide from me. If you ever feel some type of way tell me. You can talk to me about anything and I will always be here for you. So just tell me how you feel, good or bad. Shanya I really do care for you."

I was like two seconds away from crying. "Yes Colin I believe you. And you can talk to me about anything too. I don't care what it is, talk to me. I promise I'll listen." I say truthfully.

I lean down and kiss his sweet lips. His lips are like a drug...

"So we're set on goin' to Mama Kap's Saturday?" I ask.

"Hell yeah Carolina! I gotta let you meet the fam and my Sammy."

"I cannot believe you have a pet tortoise. Is he mean?"

"Sammy is the nicest most swagged out tortoise ever. My boy even got his own jersey."

"Wow Colin..."

"Don't judge. That's my little homie."

I shake my head and laugh at him. I'm still laying on top of him when my phone starts to ring. I grab it and see that it's my mom and I answer it.

"Hello?"

"Why the hell did I just see you on ESPN with Colin Kaepernick?"

"See what had happened was..."

"Oh please... I told you to let that go. Get real."

"I am real."

"Yeah uh huh... Ain't he too old for you?"

"No. He's only three years older than me..."

"I want to meet him too Shanya."

"Okay Ma."

We say our goodbyes and I lay my head on his chest.

"Moms wants to meet you Colin."

"I wanna meet moms too. She seem funny as hell."

"It depends on the day..."

He laughs and puckers his lips. I pucker mine and touch my lips to his. We kiss cutely and soon it becomes heated. He flips us over so he's on top and starts kissing down my neck, nipping and sucking while his hands traveled up and down my sides. Gosh this man has me going crazy.

"Open your eyes for me..." Colin whispers and I open them to meet his lustful brown ones staring back into mine.
