Between You & I

Us vs. The World

" Troy, um...I want this..but I mean don't you think-"

"Think what? Is it how I said something?" he says slowly standing up with concern in his eyes

"No I just don't think
we're ready"

"You went to talk to your mom didn't you.." he says walking to the livingroom to take a seat

We both have our heads down not wanting to look at eachother knowing that no matter what we do, there's always someone trying to get in between us.

"I did talk to her today but it was only because I wanted to stick up for us.. I'm tired of this, I love you and I know that you love me"

"Then say yes, we'll get married, whenever you want to Yasmine."
He says standing up making his way over to me

"She doesn't like us because we're different Troy, she doesn't want me to be with you because-"
I say too scared to finish what I was going to say which I'm sure he's already caught onto

His phone rang on the table as he looked at me with sadness in his eyes quickly answering the call

"Yeah..Right Now? Why? I already told you that I was done with that....Fine, I'm on my way" he said, quickly grabbing his keys and coat

He kissed me before I could ask what was going on

" We'll talk about this later babe, I'll be back tonight"
He said disappearing out the door.

*For anyone confused, Yasmine and Troy are an interracial couple, I wanted to try a different storyline so I hope you will enjoy it!*

* Also disclaimer in case anyone doesn't know who Troy is, he's the guy that told everyone at the table that he liked her on the first page of the story*
