Living A Lie

Chapter 9

"Jane, may I use my phone now?" Grace questioned. She had no idea where the other woman put it. 

"No" Was all Jane stated not looking up from the book she was flipping through. 

"But you said-" 

"I know what I said, but I'm in charge here, not you, so until you learn how to behave properly you are not getting it back" Jane stated with a smirk. She was beginning to like this arrangement. She liked telling Grace what to do, she liked making her unhappy, she wasn't ashamed to say that it helped her feel better. 

"But, your Mom said that she liked me, and I did everything that you asked. Please Jane" The teen begged. 

"I said no, don't question me" Jane snapped before pulling out the top drawer of her night stand and throwing the book inside. Before it closed again Grace caught a peak of her phone inside it. "I'm going to take a shower, do not leave this room" Jane instructed before walking inside the room's bathroom and shutting the door. 

The teen sighed as she laid down on the bed. She was finally able to relax. All day she's been trying to be perfect for Jane's parents. Her only slip up was daydreaming at the dinner table, other than that she'd been the perfect 'girlfriend'. She really  wanted to get on her phone though. She was 18 for heaven's sake, she wanted to call her mom and let her know that she wasn't going to make it for thanksgiving, she called her yesterday but she didn't answer. Not only that but she wanted to cyber stock celebrities. 

She heard the shower turn on inside the bathroom. She could just get on her phone for a little bit, Jane would never know if she hurry up. She sat up and pulled her phone from the nightstand. When she turned it on it made a loud welcoming sound so she stuck it under the pillow hoping Jane didn't hear. When the door stayed closed and the sound went away she pulled her phone out and was disappointed to see that she had no missed calls. So, she called her mother unfortunately she didn't pick up. It wasn't really surprising. When she called her dad he didn't answer either so she just left a message. 

Soon she was strolling through facebook. Her friends back home all moving on through their lives. Some even had kids, and what did she have, nothing. As she was strolling through her time line when she spotted her mother's profile, apparently her mother and father was on a cruise to the Bahamas.  They didn't even tell her, with a sigh she simply liked the photo. 

"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" Jane questioned as she stuck her head outside of the bathroom door. Her hair was wet and a towel was covering her chest. "Turn that off, and put it away. You forgot to put the hair conditioner in the bathroom" Jane pointed to the dresser and Grace sighed. She stood up and handed it over. "We'll take about your disobedience later tonight"
