Chapter 48: Promises

Chapter 48: Promises

*Chris's POV*

"So tell me what's really goin on with you.

I sit up and look deep in his eyes. I can tell he is  really concerned about me. I wipe my hand across my face and prepare to tell him what's going on. I don't know what it is, but Kamaal always has a way of digging things out of me. He knows me so well.

"My stalker is back." I say to him

Kamaal exhales, looks away and then looks back at me.

"How long has this been going on Chris?"

"Since the game tonight. It just randomly happened."

"So when were you gonna tell me?"

"I don't know. I really thought I was gonna be able to handle it." I say to Kamaal

"Obviously you can't. What did the messages say?"

"Just random things like "hey cutie" and "enjoy the game". One that really stuck out to me said "watch your back" and "you need to leave that nigga behind". I have no idea-"

"So someone is tryin to take you away from me?" Kamaal asks

"You already know nobody can do that."

"Good cause you all mine. So when you were shaking and sweating earlier, were you scared?"

"No I wasn't- I was just"

"Chris...."

"Ok I was. But when you put your arm around me, the feeling just went away."

"Thats what I'm here for."

"Kamaal, can you promise me something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"Just promise me you'll always be there for me whenever I need you."

"I can guarantee that, just as long as you promise me something."

"Whats that?" I ask him

"You have to promise me that you'll tell me anything no matter how bad it is or if you think you can handle it or not. I can't help you if you won't tell me what's going on with you."

"I promise. From now on we're gonna be completely open with each other." 

"Thats how I want it to be. Now come here and give me those lips." 

I laugh at Kamaal and kiss him in his juicy yet soft lips. 

"You gotta promise me another thing."  Kamaal says

"What now?"

"Once I heal, you gotta give me some of that sweet ass again. I miss diggin all up, in and out your guts"

"Eewww Kamaal, you are so gross."

"So is that a yes or a no?" Kamaal asks with a smile plastered on his face

"Sure...."

We spend the rest of the night laughing and joking around. Eventually we both fall asleep.

A FEW WEEKS LATER

*Kamaal's POV*

After weeks of physical therapy, I'm making a fast recovery. I can walk without my crutches and I'm not in that much pain. The basketball team has been dominatin the playoffs and we're only two more games away from the state championship. If I'm lucky, my doctor and physical therapist say I just might be able to play again. When I heard that, I was happy as hell. It's time for me to take the spotlight once again. Watchin the game from the sidelines get real boring after a while. My physical therapist Sean watches me do my exercises.

"So are you ready to get back in the game?"

"Yep, more than ever. I can't wait!"

"I can tell. You're making a fast recovery. Have you been putting weight on your legs like I told you to?" Sean asks

"Yeah, I've been doin a few pick up games in gym class. I feel a little bit of pain, but as that much."

"Well if you're still doing as well as you are now, you just might be able to play in the next game." 

As soon as he says that I damn near piss my pants. 

"You for real?"

"Yeah, but to be on the safe side, I'll authorize you play in the game after that. I don't want you to get hurt again, and risk a long term injury"

"Shoot that's fine. As long as I can play."

I finish my physical therapy session and leave the gym. I head home, grab my basketball and head to the court down the street. I've been workin on my game for a few weeks now so I could heal faster. I play around a little bit and decide to head home. I didn't even realize I've been here for 3 hours. It's already 10:15. I grab my backpack and get my ball from the other side of the court. As soon as I pick the ball up, I swear I heard a voice. I turn around, look around and there's nobody there. I brush it off and make my way off the court. The whole way home, I swear someone was following me. I heard bushes and there wasn't any wind blowin. I stop, look around again and continue walking. Damn I'm really trippin right now. Eventually I make it home. I lock the door behind me, go upstairs, and call Chris.

"Hey bae, the craziest shit happened earlier."
