"Fine come In," I said giving up as I walked over to the dining room table, setting the pizzas down.Facing him again to speak, "Start explaining," I said folding my arms over my chest. "Uh-.. I'd just like to say that I'm so sorry for what I said and how I treated you. I didn't mean to, It's just I had a lot of things going through my head" Travis said walking over to where I was. "You know I'd never say something If I knew It would hurt you, I know how you feel about your ADD and that's why I try not to mention anything about It" Travis leaned up against the table while I moved to sit In the chair not far from him, "I'm not necessarily mad at you I'm more of upset about what you said and how you said It" I explained to him pulling my arms tighter against each other. "I understand, I was wrong" Travis said bowing his head poking out his lips In the process, "Aww Travy you know what your doing stop that" I stood up walking towards him. My Index finger pressed on his unusual warm skin as I pulled his chin up to prevent him from tugging at my heart with his sad expression."Travy stop" I said when I realized he was playing with me, "I couldn't help It, I know you to well". We were Interrupted by the sounds of my brother and her girlfriend still going at It "right there, yes that's my spot ow yeah" Natasha yelled, Travis's face scrunched up In disgust "are they ah.." Travis wondered. "Yeah, but they started before you even got here," I said no longer forcing the smile on my face like I did before when he appeared at the front door.

"Where are you going," I asked Travis as he walked away towards the staircase, "You'll see c'mon," He said doing a waving motion with his hand for me to follow him. We stopped at Trevin door, "what are you doing" I asked when he suddenly bounded on the door and shouted, "Natasha baby you gonna let me hit It later tonight". "Travis why would you do that, my brother's going to kill you" I warned him trying to pull him away from my brother's grip on his arm. "Chill I was just playing," Travis said acknowledging that my brother wasn't playing around, "but I'm not," Trevin said punching Travis In the jaw. "Trevin he said he was playing that's enough" I yelled pulling Travis downstairs before Trevin could cause any more damage. "Look what you did," I said when I sat him down In the chair at the kitchen table. "Don't start?" Travis said leaning his back against the chair as I got a cloth from the downstairs bathroom and applied water and grabbing the alcohol bottle. "I can If I want to, Travis you know I warned you," I said lightly dabbing his cheek with the water from the cloth, "I know you did and I should have listened I'm sorry," Travis said shocking me. I stood up from the wooden floor, "did you just apologize to me" I asked feeling uncertain, "yeah I did" he said calmly.

"Why are you so surprised," Travis asked me when I walked to the sink to drench the cloth with water again, "I don't know It's just not something I would expect you to say so easily" I explained. "Well I can just tell you this, a lot has changed," he said putting air quotes around the word change when he said It. "Maybe you just might have," I said putting alcohol bottle and the Neosporin on my hand and mixing them together before applying It to his jaw. "Shit" Travis hissed at the painful sensation he felt from the alcohol. "let's eat some pizza before It get's cold," I said getting off my knees again to grab the 1 of the pizza boxes. "So tell me when did you decide to become a pizza delivery dude," I asked smirking at him, "since my mom mentioned It one morning to me," he said placing his cheese pizza on his plate. We sat down and started eating pizza enjoying each others company when suddenly my brother wanted to come downstairs with his girlfriend. "Aye, why Is that nigga still here," Trevin said his fire being set ablaze "because he can be," I said getting up to block him from Travis, "Nicki I didn't ask you," Trevin said moving towards me.

"He was just playing, can't you take a simple joke," I asked folding my arms across my chest, "I can just not when It's about my babe," Trevin said trying to get to Travis but he couldn't cause his girlfriend held him back. "Natasha let me go" Trevin grunted out In anger, "no I won't Into you calm down," she said sternly. "Why are you on their side" he yelled, "I'm not on anyone's side It's just common sense not to make the situation worst cause If you haven't noticed Travis Is just sitting there and I'm not offended by what he said and you wanna know why" Natasha asked Trevin still hold him back by his arms, "why" Trevin glared at her afraid of her answer. "Because I know It's a joke, look Trevin I understand you love me trust me you've proven that enough-..." I cut Natasha of and said "You do need to remember we're still In the room" I said warning them before they could try any of that nasty stuff. "I wasn't going to go there but It was Intended" Natasha said bouncing her eyebrows up and down at me, "like I was saying It's just a joke OK I know you love me but you seriously have to stop getting so jealous over the little things and just being jealous In general" Natasha said, you could tell she meant every word. "Now let's eat OK sweetie," Natasha said nodding her head slowly at him before leading him to the table to eat some pizza with us.

"Why Is It so dead In here," Natasha said trying to lighten things up, "none of us have anything to talk about," She asked trying to relieve the tension that lingered In the air. "Natasha doesn't start everyone Is already mad," I said picking at my pizza crust, "don't be like that" Natasha whined at me rubbing my arm. "Whatever Natasha," I said flicking her hand off my arm when I got up and Travis copied my moves, "let's got to my room" I announced. "Actually" Travis began to say, "What Is It," I asked him strangely feeling worried, "I need to head home," Travis said making me feel hurt for some reason. "Can't you stay It's a Saturday night" I complained, "I could but It's already 7:30?" he said slipping on his shoes. "But can I at least put a band-aid on your jaw before you go," I said trying to make up excuses so he wouldn't have to leave so sudden If anything Natasha should be leaving, "alright fine but don't take all day," he said giving In to me. "Just sit anywhere," I said leaving the bathroom to retrieve some band-aids, "okay". "It might sting a little when I try to put the band-aid on" I warned him, "Nah I'm good lay It on there" he demanded. "Can I get a please?" I said trying to act funny, "please," Travis said In a mocking manner, "now that's better".

I put the band-aid on his jaw making sure not to hurt him, "thanks" Travis said trying to leave again, "would you just stay please just a little longer" I begged him. "fine but after 8:15 I'm going home" Travis said while I hugged him happy that he'd stay a little longer for me. Travis went up the stairs with me following close behind, I started thinking. "Why am I acting like this" I wondered put shock the thought away when I saw Travis spread out laying on my bed, "make some room for me," I said pouting.
