TOO LATE. (Urban Teen Fiction)

Chapter. 25. Let It Out

Tara Pov

I made my way downstairs to find Dre standing in my living room. I didn't understand why he was over, clearly when I broke it off with him. My mom and dad left out of the room going into the kitchen, as Dre stood there with a bouquet of roses.

"What are you........".

"Wait before you go off the deep end, these are for you" . Handing me the roses he held in his arm. "Look, I know I said I was sorry.  But after you left, I felt a piece of me walk out the door with you. I just couldn't stomach it and knew that I had to do something to right my wrongs".

"Dre, I can't accept these". I responded handing him the roses back".

"Why not, I'm trying hard to fix us".

"We can't fix us if I don't want it fixed, I've moved on".

"Moved on, how, when, and why; I know I messed up but damn".

"Look, imma just let it out. Last night I met someone and I did some thing's".

"Ok so you kicked it with someone, ok I'm ok with that".

"No...., we did more than kick it" .

"Ok so you enjoyed yourself with another man, fine".

"Dre stop......, I had sex with someone else. And I think we...........".

"Hold the fuck up, you fucked another dude. We wasn't even broken up until this morning". He stated getting angry, throwing the flowers on the floor. "Yea I might have done some fucked up shit, but I never cheated on you. But you go out and fuck another nigga. What type of shit is that, so I take it y'all have been talking for awhile since you fucking him".

"Uhm........".

"Uhm, what. So you just met the nigga and fucked him the first night. You know what, you trifling ass chick. Look I'm not even gone go there, I'm out. Maybe y'all need to be with each other. Just don't let the nigga cross my path".

"Dre please.....".

"Don't fucking speak my name, your dead to me". He blurted out, walking out the door slamming it behind him.

My mom comes running in to see what was the commotion about. I was so shocked at the way Dre acted. He's never once talked to me like that. I just held my tears back as I ran up to my room. Slamming the door behind me as I flopped down onto my bed, balling my eyes out.

I eventually dozed off from crying so much, that when I woke up I had one hell of a headache. I sat up on my bed, taking my phone out to call Dre. He didn't answer after I called him four times, and the fifth time he turned his phone off. I really never meant for us to come to this point. I sent him a text.

(Dre I'm deeply sorry, I had no intentions on sleeping with him. I was hurt by the way things were going between us, and I was caught in a weak moment. I love you Dre please can you call me I really need to talk to you).

I sent the text to him hoping he would reply, but nothing. I'm so confused right now about everything. Even though Dre had hurt me, and we were going through our stages. He never once disrespected me. I know the things he just said was out of anger, but I still love him. Then at the same time I'm also feeling Juan.

Dre Pov

I walked home, and I just can't believe she slept with another guy. Sure I had Jasmine spend the night but nothing happened. I don't know what's going on I'm just at a point where I don't care anymore.  I turned my phone on revealing a text message from Tara. After reading it I instantly got mad all over again. How is it,  that you can love someone, but sleep with a random person.

I laid across my bed, just as my mom comes walking in.

"Hey baby, I didn't expect you to be home".

"Yea, just don't feel like being out,  why are you home,  aren't you supposed to be at work".

"Yea, but I came home cause I have to get packed".

"Packed, for what? I thought we weren't moving anymore" .

"Were not, I have to go for this seminar, which means while I'm gone I need you on your best behavior. I don't want you out running the streets, I want you home and to school".

"Ok, but what am I supposed to do? How long you leaving for"?

"Uhm, a week at the most".

"Ok, well can't I come with you"?

"NO......, I mean no, not this time baby".

"Why not, you can get me my own room at the hotel".

"No, I can't this time baby, maybe next time".

Sherry. Pov

I felt bad lying to my son, but I had to make this trip alone. There's some things that need to be done in the dark. Eventually I will tell him what's going on, but for now it has to wait.

I put my bags in the taxi as it pulled up. I kissed Dre on the cheek, as I directed the cab driver to take me to the airport. I sat in my seat on the flight, with jitters in my bones.

My flight landed and to my surprise he stood there just as I remembered him. Tears began to stream down my eyes, as we ran into each other's arm. I held onto him never wanting to let him go. He kissed me on my forehead, and squeezed me tighter lifting me off of my feet.

Who is this mysterious person that Sherry had to fly out to see? How will things turn out for Dre and Tara? Was Dre wrong, was Tara wrong?
