My babies <3 ^^^^
I take a shower and make dinner. While we eat Taylor breaks the silence.
"So you wanna talk about what has been going on?"
"I guess it's now or never. I broke up with Colby because he cheated on me. 2 weeks ago when we went to the boardwalk I saw him kissing another girl. My heart was so broken. I have been avoiding you guys and not talking to you because I know you will hurt him. Yet again I keep finding myself protecting him. I loved him. I just don't get why he did that to me. Every night I cried at 2 am wondering what the fuck I did wrong, and why I wasn't worthy enough. I feel worthless."
"You are not worthless ma. You know it. Don't let some stupid boy make you feel like you're worthless because trust me you are far from it. You have way more than he ever will." Sammy says hugging me.
"Thanks Wilk." I smile.
"Anytime ma." He says sitting back down.
"So Skate what's this exciting news you wanted to tell me?" I ask changing the subject.
"Well, Derek is dating LeLe and I am with Ana." He says. I chuckle.
"I kind of already knew that. Saw that one coming. I'm glad we talked about this. I'm going to bed." I say walking to my room.
I lay in my bed and think about everything that's happened over the past two weeks. I close my eyes and fall asleep.
-A Few Hours Later-
I am woken up by the sounds of screams and grunts. Oh great. Somebody is fucking. I roll my eyes and walk downstairs so I don't have to hear it.
It's so uncomfortable hearing that shit. I grab a Monster out of the fridge and chug it. I decide to go to the beach so I walk upstairs. I grab my phone, and write a note for everyone because I am not staying here.
"Going out,
Love you.
Nivea."
I tape it to the fridge then slip on my shoes and leave. The engine of my car roars to life and I drive to the beach.
Soon my phone is lighting up from Skate facetiming me. I answer.
"Hey lil mama where you at?"
"Out. I heard Derek and LeLe fucking and you of all people know I can't handle that shit. It pisses me off but I left so I could get some time to myself." I say.
"Want me to join you? It's 1 am. And I don't want you out alone." He says. I sigh.
"Yeah. I'll come pick you up. Be outside. and bring your swimming trunks. You'll need them." I say hanging up. I turn the car back on and drive home.
Skate is sitting outside with a bottle of Hennessy and a bottle of Jack. This little shit. I chuckle to myself.
He gets in my car. I drive us back to the beach where I was at peace. The beach has always been a peaceful place for me, whenever I needed to get away from the stress of life I would come here.
I park my car and shut it off. I look over at Skate who is already staring at me.
His smile is angelic. He looks at me with those soft brown eyes, messy disheveled hair, perfect dimples, and angelic smile.
He takes my breath away I tell you what but he is just my best friend. I have never seen him more than that. Derek on the other hand. That's questionable.
"Lil Mama I have been meaning to ask you. Why are you being so distant lately? It's like 2 weeks ago at the boardwalk you disappeared, you didn't talk to us you avoided us then when you came home last night we talked for 30 minutes and you disappeared into your room. What is going on with you? This is not the Nivea that Derek and I know. You're always happy, no matter how bad you hurt. You're hiding all the time. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah Skate. Just a little stressed with work. Nothing you have to worry about. I'm okay I promise."
