I haven't written much on Travis only because I wanted you all to get a feel for Dre and Jasmine. For those who don't know Travis was introduced in the beginning briefly.  He's the one Dre fought over Jasmine, or was that the real reason. Now that Dre and Jasmine have exposed there spiraling lifestyle, and Jasmine is hospitalized, this is the perfect time to let y'all in on Travis.

Travis POV

I walked into the house after leaving a party I attended all night. My pops was gone for work already so I knew I would hear his mouth when he got home tonight. I grabbed my phone out of my pocket revealing multiple missed calls and texts.

I wasn't concerned about the one's from my dad, and went right to. the most important one.

(Hey did you enjoy your night handsome), (If so maybe we should do it again if your up for it)

I read those texts from the special person I have been talking to. It felt so good to be with someone who understood me completely. I sat on the couch thinking of a response just when my phone began to ring.

"Hello".

"Hey".

"I was just about to respond back to your text, I enjoyed myself so much last night".

"I'm glad you did maybe next time we can hang out in my type of crowd".

"I would like to but maybe we should keep this private, I love spending time with you, but I don't want everybody in our business".

"Ok I can respect that but eventually our relationship have to be exposed".

"I'm too young to have that type of attention on me, especially with the generation I'm growing up in".

"Ok but age didn't stop you from what you did a year ago".

"Look that's what I'm still trying to wrap my head around, and I'm adjusting more to it as time goes on, It's not easy accepting that lifestyle at my age".

"Ok well I hope you eventually open your eyes and notice what you have before its too late".

With those words spoken to me I immediately became speechless.

"You there"?

"Yea maybe it's time I let everyone know then".

"Only if your ready, I mean my whole family knows, and they have learned to accept it".

"Ok well how about we hook up tonight and then tomorrow morning we let my dad know".

"Ok, I love you".

"Love you too,  see you tonight".

I hung up the phone and took a deep breath, I knew what I got myself Into, but I was nowhere near ready to expose the truth about me. I went outside and sat on the porch, when I saw Dre pull up with a girl in the car. I didn't get him really, cause his way of living is so different. I didn't get how he could be with two girls at one time.

Even though we had a rough start of getting to know each other, I thought to myself maybe I should give it another try to get to know him. I called his name as he looked my way.

"Hey can I talk to you".

"Yea, I guess make it quick though".

"Look I know you really don't care for me, but I just need somebody to talk too" .

"Ok why me, you got your pops, and your own set of friends".

I laughed and replied, "I don't have friends like that, I really don't fit in with your crowd. And my dad on the other hand, I haven't been able to talk to him about anything. So I figured I could talk to you since you have a household without a father figure, and that's how I feel. No offense but how do you manage to stay level in life with so much going on"?

"Look it's some huge difference between us that neither one of us can change, but not having a father doesn't restrict me from living".

"I wasn't meaning it that way maybe we could, if you don't mind talk in private".

Dre looks at Tara and told her to go into the house, and he would be down in a min. Now that we were alone I could stop fumbling over my words and thoughts. I sat there and talked to Dre and exposed everything to him.

He gave me some advice on how to express myself to my dad, which was great. Then he explained the things he has been through, which really let me better understand him.

He and I have been through so much, and the fact that we both are the same age. I grew a new respect for Dre given the fact that we both have had the chance to sit down and talk.

Dre got up, "Hey I gotta go I been up all night and I got company waiting on me".

"Ok man, thanks for hearing me out".

"No problem man anytime,  maybe we can start new".

"Yea that's cool".

Dre POV

I walked back over to my house taking in everything Travis just told me. From the looks of him you wouldn't think that he was in the position he was in. I walked into the house to my bedroom, where Tara laid there in my bed. I took my shirt off and my pants, leaving me in just basketball shorts and boxers. I crawled into bed next to her.

I tried to close my eyes just when Tara wrapped her arm around me asking me what happened last night. I gave her the rundown of what happened, as I thought to myself if she was ok. I felt so bad for what happened and couldn't put it past the fact that it was somewhat my fault. I sat with her through the night, and we had a serious conversation.

Tara climbed on top of me, "Are you still going to hold out on me, or give it to me".

"It's not that I don't want to but it will be my first time and so I don't want to do anything wrong".

"Trust me you won't I will show you how it's done".

"Ok", I replied as she instantly took off her shirt and bra.

We kissed all over each other, then I slipped the condom on. She then slid it in as she straddled on top of me. She went up and down slowly, which felt so good. I grabbed hold of her waist as I sat up.

"Lay back I got this", She replied.

"Hold on take it slow I don't want this to end".

"Me either, how about you take the condom off. That way you can feel everything".

She lifted up and took the condom off, before sliding back down onto me. The pleasure was too much for me to handle. Tara picked up the pace as she was reaching her climax.

Just as she released the feeling was to intense. I grabbed onto her waist as I felt myself about to explode.  I lifted her up off of me as I shot off uncontrollably. We both laid there panting for air as we kissed on each other.

"You sure fooled me for this being your first time".

"What makes you say that"?

"Cause of how long you lasted" .

"Well it's my first time having sex, I never said I haven't received head or played around".

We continued to lay there until we dozed off to sleep.

So what is Travis secret, is he gay? And Dre has moved his relationship further with Tara, but what did him and Jasmine talk about. How do y'all feel about Dre and Tara taking it to the next level, and without a condom. Is trouble brewing?
