Driven to Insanity (BWWM)

Chapter IV

I park his car outside my house. "This is it" I say referring to the shitty two story house that I've grown up in.

He nods his head and looks over at me. I shrug.

He looks me over. "I like it"

"What?"

"It's cool, you know after all of the luxurious places I've lived in, I'd love to live in it."

I look at him like he's fucking insane. "Uhm..." I look at him unsure. "Do you wanna come in?" I ask.

He looks at me confused. "It's kinda late"

I shake my head. "Don't worry my mom's cool" I smile at him. "Now my father... he's a different story"

His eyes widen.

I burst out laughing. "Chill, he's not here right now" my smile falls. "he won't be back for a while" I say as I get out of the car. I start walking to the house.

"Wait!" I hear behind me.

There's still no point in stopping if he'll catch up. "Aira?" he catches up.

I look over at him as I walk in these terrible inventions called heels. "Yes, Lucas?"

"Where do we stand?"

I raise a brow. "What do you mean?" I walk up the steps to my front porch.

"Like our relationship" he nervously rubs his neck as I open the door with my house key.

I shrug a shoulder. "i don't know, Lucas"

I walk in and he follows behind me.

His eyes widen. "Holy shit!" Lucas puts a hand on my shoulder. "Aira"

I look at him. "What?"

"You have a fucking boyfriend"

My eyes widen. Shit! I forgot I told him Henry was my boyfriend.

"Hey sweetie you're home?" I hear.

I turn around and look at my mother. I smile. "Hey Momma" I kiss her on the cheek.

"Oh..." she looks behind me at Lucas. "Who's this?"

I look behind me at Lucas and smile. "Momma this is Lucas my..." I trail off. "friend" I finish.

"He's cute." she leans over to whisper into my ear then looking back at Lucas. "It's nice to meet you Lucas."

He looks down at her and smiles. "You too ma'am"

She shakes her head. "Oh please! None of that ma'am bullshit"

His eyes widen.

I laugh. "Told you she was cool"

She grins. "Just call me Dom"

He nods.

She looks at us weird. "Aira, who's shirt do you have on?"

I look down. "Oh this" I shrug. "It's Lucas's"

She frowns. "Why?"

"Someone.... Spilled beer on me at a party Henry and Gracie dragged me too"

She smiles and laughs. "How is Henry, I haven't seen him"

I cough and shake my head. "Good?"

"What's wrong with you, Aira?"

I look over at Lucas to see he's glaring into space with his arms crossed.

I shake my head. "Nothing"

"Well tell Henry that I have a nice young intern at the job for him if he's into little lanky blondes?" she says.

My eyes widen. "MOM!" I look at Lucas.

"Henry's gay?!" Lucas yells. "I thought you said he was your boyfriend"

I flinch. Fuck!

"Uh-oh" mom says. She looks between us. "Well I'm going to go"

I look at her for help while shaking my head. "MOM" I yell after her as she runs upstairs to her room. I look at Lucas shyly as I hear her door slam.

He glares at me. "You lied to me, Aira"

I shake my head. "Not technically"

He continues to glare. "The fuck is that supposed to mean?" he yells. "You lied."

I shrug. "I said he was my boyfriend, which wasn't a total lie"

He runs a hand over his face. "You're a bitch" he says as he makes his way to the door.

"Lucas!" I yell after him. "C'mon it was a little white lie"

He shakes his head at me. "But still, Aira. You made me think that I had crossed some guy code rule."

"I'm sorry"

"I mean I may be considered a bad ass and all of that shit at school but Aira when it comes to taking someone's girl that a total different story" he opens the door. "Even if she is someone that I've wanted since high school" He walks out of my house and down the driveway to his car.

I run to the door. "Seriously? LUCAS!" I yell out of the door. "I said I was sorry. You're overreacting."

He shakes his head as he gets to his car. "Then let me overreact by my damn self." He jumps into his car and drives off.

I watch him drive away and sigh sadly while walking into the house and closing the door.

"FUCK!" I scream.

"You lied to him and told him you were with Henry?"

I look up.

"Aira" she says sadly and shakes her head.

I shrug. "I didn't think he'd react like that"

She nods. "All guys are different" she walks down stairs. "Just let him calm down for a while"

"I just wanted to make him a little jealous" I say softly.

She hugs me. "It'll be alright sweetie and before you know it you guys will be talking again"

I sigh while hugging and pulling away gently. "I think I'm going to go to bed now"

She nods and kisses my cheek. "Night honey"

"Night mom" I say as I walk to my bedroom which is in the back of the house on the lower level near the dining room and kitchen.

I close my door gently and untie the heels and take them off as I slip into bed and lay down.

I should really take a shower but I'll do it in the morning. I'm still a little high and now upset.

That night I cried myself to sleep with Lucas's smell still on my body and my body still wrapped in his shirt.
