Too Many Chances

Chapter 5: The Relationship

Kaleya and Lamar's relationship is going pretty well. Lamar and Kaleya is still in chorus doing more flirting than singing. Taneesha still seems like she's trying to flirt her way around Chris without him recognizing but it seemed pretty obvious that he knew. Nobody just never heard him say anything about it. Lamar is treating Kaleya just right. Only about 10 days of their relationship has lasted so far. He haven't been moving too fast but he damn show wasn't moving too slow.

Lamar's P.O.V.

I think that we have a good relationship. I don't wanna go past my base too fast and leave something behind and don't realize it until I get deep into the relationship. But I also don't wanna move so slow that I'll be on second base and she's on the 5th. Our relationship is basically like it was before we were officially a couple, just that now everybody knows and we talk more about certain things I kinda don't wanna mention. See at one point, I couldn't believe I was going out with her because of how I saw her when I 1st saw her. Then I also couldn't believe it because everybody in the 11th grade wanted her, but she ended up going with a 10th grader, me. I was thinking wouldn't that shit fuck up your reputation but at the same time build up mine. I mean like I really didn't care how our relationship was when we first got together. Like shit, our relationship was I game and I was learning how to play it. See I knew that I could be a good man for her and be like the old singing group, Pretty Ricky, and show her that age ain't nothing but a number. See I could've played Kaleya at anytime but I thought to my self like I didn't cheat on none of my other ex-girlfriends. Knowing I won't lying to nobody but my self when I thought that. Well maybe I did cheat on alot of them, almost all of em, but it won't like a goal or something it was just a habit. See me and Kaleya was like the ordinary couple for one point. Neither one of us was taking shit seriously, but I won't trying to treat her like my ex-girlfriends and cheat on her because something was telling me not to. I mean like everybody knew that I was a nice guy, it wasn't a secret. But not everybody knew I cheated on the girls I had. But I never cheated but I did look at girls just in case me and Kaleya broke up I already had a back-up plan. See I know the best way to get close to a girl. You talk to them a certain way and you listen to them. But not all girls do that, some females have a friendship with males and wants just that, a friendship, nothing more and nothing less. See girls are complicated and they know it, that's why their always complaining about somebody that can understand them. So me as a man take the time out of my life when I'm not doing shit else with it and listen to them. You can never understand a girl or anybody completely because nobody in the world has the same mind set (and I'm just being honest). But the least you can do is help her understand that you understand by giving out good suggestions for her problems.

But that's not how I got Kaleya. I was just funny, good-looking, a good singer, and I talked to her. But I never really used the listen strategy with her, not until we started officially going out. But part of me didn't feel right. I got good ears and catch on pretty quick. Like she cheated on TyShon with me and broke up with him for the most stupid reason she could find because she didn't just wanna break up out the blue then go out with me. But I didn't feel no type of way because that just made me feel like a player. But then my common sense kicked in. But wait, the statistics song. See there was this song called Statistics by a man name Lyfe Jennings and he rapped and sung about the real world for these girls. And in his song, Statistics, part of the song sayed "Rule 2: If he's in a relationship, and he will cheat on her that means he will cheat on you." Well I switched that shit around and thought to my smart ass, if she will cheat on him, why wouldn't she cheat on me. But I didn't care at that time, I just wanted Kaleya. I mean she can cook, clean, she's responsible, and she look good. What more can a man ask for that early in a relationship? I was like Lil Wayne because I won't worried about nothing.

Kaleya P.O.V.

Me and Lamar is doing good. I'm so happy. I never thought he would like me. But now that we go out I dont really take this relationship serious. I know I should. But it's like why should I. He's younger than me and what boy stays faithful these days. I do like him. But I am not about to be committed in this relationship if he's not. And I know I should not be saying nothing because I did cheat on TyShon with Lamar but that was because I didn't want TyShon, but that is no excuse. But now that I am with Lamar I'm gonna try to change.

Lamar's P.O.V.

Okay so our relationship isn't the best but it damn show ain't the worst. So me and Kaleya were like some inside people I guess, because the only times we really came out side was for a school purpose or because she couldn't have no company so we just sat on her back porch and shit. You know, like we chilled together. Now a lot of people knew we was going out, not too many people but a lot. But I did seem kind of surprised when people came up asking do I go wit Kaleya Miller. But I had friends, but I want worried about them because when my friend Travis said she was cute, my friend Andrew said the same thing. But when Travis said she was ugly all because he got in a argument with Kaleya's little sister, Kelly, he started calling both Kaleya and Kelly ugly just because Kaleya did her job as a older sister and defended Kelly. Which it was really Kelly's fault because she bit Travis's hand, then Travis started picking on her and she told Kaleya trying to act all innocent like it wasn't her fault. But anyways, after Travis started calling Kaleya ugly, Andrew did too. But the thing was, Travis stayed on Stoner St. too, just like me and Kaleya so he atleast knew a little about her like where she lives and how many siblings she have. But Andrew didn't know shit about her, all he knew was her name (he barely knew that), her grade, and he knew she rode my bus. That's it, he didn't even know what she looked like because one time we saw her around in school with her class and Travis saw her and was like "there go your girlfriend Kidd", so I started smiling and Andrew said "damn your girlfriend ugly" so I looked & he was pointing at the wrong fucking girl. So I wasn't worried about nothing.

Like a lot of times (and I do mean a lot) Kaleya's friend Taneesha spent the night over Kaleya's house, so we didn't really have a lot of alone time. But we tried our best to make every minute count. But when Taneesha stop spending the night all the time, Whoo! Everything changed.
