• Addison •

Nicholas drove me around for awhile til we pulled up to a big house.

"My ma might be home, so if she says anything... please forgive her" he said and grabbed my hand. I looked up at him, it looked like the fact that his mother was home was bothering him.

"Okay Nahmir" I said and he chuckled

"You can call me Nicholas babygirl, but only you can" he said and I smiled a little. I got out of the car and so did he. We walked up to the doorstep and he unlocked the door and walked in. I walked in behind him quietly and I heard the tv on.

"Who's the girl?" The women asked.

"My girlfriend ma" he said and she turned around took a glance at me.

"Hmm.. girlfriend. What's your name girl?" she asked and I looked at Nicholas.

"Addison" I said and she chuckled.

"Who names a girl Addison" she laughed and I looked down at the floor.

"Ma chill out please, I brung her here to meet you properly and your being rude" Nicholas said and she slowly got up off of the couch and walked up to us.

"Hmm... the first time this has happened." she said and stood in front of me. I started to fiddle around with my fingers as she looked at me.

"Your pretty, you seem shy.... your choice of clothing is appropriate. Where's your parents? I'd like to meet them before anything" she said and I felt a struck in my heart. This was gonna be hard speaking about my parents, and the fact that I haven't told Nicholas about my parents either...

"My parents are dead" I said and she looked up at me. I seen that look of sympathy in her eyes.

"Who do you live with?" she asked and I took a deep breath.

"I lived with my uncle... until something happened and he killed himself. So until I graduate i'll be living with my best friend and her mother" I said and she looked down.

"Nicholas go up to your room for a few, i'll send her up there afterwards" she said and Nicholas left. She waited til she heard his door close and then she grabbed my hand softly leading me to the couch.

She sat down and I sat down beside her. "Nicholas's grandparents are also dead, he never met them because they died when I was a teenager. I lived with my aunt and she wasn't the best guardian in the world so I ended up moving in with my best friend." she said and I looked over at her, she had tears in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry" I said and she wiped the tears away and looked at me and smiled.

"I know the life your living, just do what you think is best for you... but may I ask why your uncle died" she said and I bit the inside of my lip.

"My parents didn't like him and when they died I had no other family available to take care of me so he took me in. He was attracted to underage girls... so he would touch me and one day I told my teacher and she called the police. He ended up running away and the next day I found out he killed himself" I said and she pulled me into a hug.
