Chapter 8; Yacth Life (Part 2)

Vanessa POV:

I rubbed my eyes as I threw my legs over the side of the bed. I looked over at the clock that was above the bed room door.

{11am}

I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. I took a shower, brushed my teeth, and put my hair In a messy bun and got dressed: pink tank top, black basketball shorts and pink flip flops.

I wonder if anyone is up? they were up pretty late I didn't stop hearing music until the early am. I grabbed my phone and walked out my bedroom to the steps that led up to the deck. It was hot ass hell when I got up to, the sun was beaming down a perfect day to go swimming. I walked up the steps that led to the dinning room. We'll damn I was wrong, Jamal was up and including everyone else. They all were sitting around the table chilling.

"Good morning Vanessa" I felt someone touch my shoulder lightly.

"Um good morning Lisa" I said as she walked towards the dining room.

I was nervous to walk into the room mainly because they fact that I still couldn't stand to see Chris. He would have the audacity to do something like that knowing the shit I have been thru. I ignored the thought and walked into the dining room.

"Good morning sleepy head" August said getting up from his seat and giving me a hug.

"Good morning" I smiled back.

I sat down next to Ty.

"Good morning hoe" Jamal joked throwing a napkin at me from across the table.

I laughed "good morning bitch".

"Here's your breakfast everyone" said Lisa, she and other two women served our food. The food was amazing, breakfast was good and we all had a great time I even saw Chris smile once.

{7pm}

I was leaning on the railing of the ship and looking out to the ocean it was beautiful. We were close to the shore still, but it was really peaceful being out here. It was much easier being on this boat then being on the land they call L.A. Away from all the negativity and being here with the people I care the most about. I did miss Val though I promised Mrs. C that I wouldn't call she wanted me to enjoy myself and not worry about them. It was hard not to worry about them, they were the only two people on the planet that I would lose my mind if I lost them. including Chris. I sighed, why dose everything have to evolve around that nigga my life and my career includes him. My music career include him but not my modeling career. I built a name for myself as a model, after I got pregnant with Val I decide to be a model, I was a mess I didn't no which path to take I knew for sure not to take the same path that ended me up getting pregnant. I was taken advantage of by some guys. From being that child with a half ass mother and a dad that wanted nothing to do with me nor my brother or sister. When I was 13 I was ganged raped, I had something that actually cared for snatched from me, my virginty. something that all the girls were losing at my school and something that I was terrified to lose.

I guess Chris evolves around my life so much because he was the one who took care of me when I was going thru depression. He was the one to saved me from my 3 suicide attempts. The one who was my only friend I ever had, the one who I wanted to take my virginty.

"Hey" Chris said leaning on the railing next to me.

"Hi" I said as I wiped a tear away. I looked over at him he was looking out towards the ocean.

"Have you ever thought about staying out here and not going back"?

"Yea...but I couldn't just up and leave Val".
