A New Path

Chapter 14: Getting Older

It's the end of July now and soon I was off to my college to get settled in before everyone else came close to school time. Trevor and I both took turns to sleep over at each other's house. Our relationship got stronger and was more happier each day. When we didn't agree on something,we didn't argue on who was right. We just let each other learn for ourselves to see who was right in the end. I haven't seen or heard from Andre since my graduation. I realized that the least he could have done was let me see his new girlfriend and if she's worthy being mad for or not. I was in the backyard with Trevor watching my dad put up something like a little house, that he had designed. He has done a lot all by himself and once in a while he would get help from Trevor. I had my hand around Trevor's neck as he held my legs up on his lap. We were looking at each other.
"I love you," I said as I moved closer to him. I was about to kiss him when I saw something at the side of my eye. I had spoke too soon, it was Andre. Trevor looked at me.
"Baby, are you ok?" I didn't say anything and I just motioned my eyes in the direction of where Andre was. Trevor turned his head and saw Andre. I looked at Andre and he wasn't alone. I saw him with his girlfriend. She was pretty but I was beautiful. I just sat there as Andre and his girlfriend came to us. I was too happy with Trevor to be angry at Andre anymore. I was in a better place and I forgive him already.
"Hi Andre," I said as I smiled at him.
"Hi Jasmine, Trevor," he said as he smiled back.
"Hey," Trevor said.
"Jasmine, I'm sorry for the way I've treated. I never meant to hurt you. I'm not asking for us to be friends because I know you probably don't want nothing to do with me but I'm asking for forgiveness. Can you please forgive me?"
"I already have."
"Thank you. Well I decided that the least I could do was introduce you to my girlfriend, Kayla. Kayla, this is my ex-girlfriend and best friend, Jasmine."
"Hi," Kayla said. She sounded like it took everything in her to say that.
"Hi," I said sarcastically, "well I might as well return the favor. Andre, this is my boyfriend." Andre looked shocked and hurt at the same time.
"Um Jasmine, may I speak to you for a moment?"
"Ok," I said as I got up. Andre and I went on the patio and sat down.
"Jasmine, are you ok?"
"Yes why?"
"Because you seem really calm about this all."
"I was hurt but I'm over it. I'm not going to lie, I was sad but I knew it was going to happen. For someone that hasn't seen his girlfriend in 8 years, something must be going on. I knew it was going to happen, but I held unto you all this time because I was in love with you. One day, Trevor and I hung out and I realized that I couldn't wait for you forever. I gave him a chance until you came back. Well you came back and I realized that I didn't love you as much as Trevor. He treated me better and he went slow with me. Well I still love you but I love Trevor more. Also we can still be friends after all you were my best friend."
"Thank you. I'm just glad that you found someone that makes you happy, I'm sorry for the pain I caused you."
"It's ok."
"Sooo what happened to the tree house?"
"Well I got mad and knocked most of it down but daddy said he was going to take it down anyways while I was in college and make that," I said looking at my dad.
"Oh ok."
"I know we are not together anymore but you are still my best friend and I have to tell you this. When I said you on my graduation day, I was like whoa. Andre you are really handsome and sexy. You have grown up well, every well."
"Thank you and you have grown up very nicely too. You are very very gorgeous. Don't tell Kayla this but you are way more beautiful than her."
"Thank you," I said blushing.
"Well we have to go. I hope to see you another time," he said as he got up. I stood up and hugged him. I gave him a big hug and he returned the favor. Then he kissed my cheek.
"I love you Jazzy always."
"I love you too Dre." Andre walked off the patio.
"Kayla let's go," he said as he took her hand and they left. I walked back over to Trevor and went back to the position I was in before he came.
"You ok?"
"Yes," I said as I kissed him. When I pulled away, Trevor looked like he wanted more. I giggled a little.
"Baby, can I ask you a serious question?"
"Always. What's on your mind?"
"Its about Kayla."
"What about her?"
"Do you think she is pretty?"
"Yes, why?"
"If you didn't know me and you saw both of us, who would you go for?"
"You."
"Are you just saying that because Imm your girlfriend?"
"No, but seriously I would go for you."
"Why me?"
"Because you are way more gorgeous than her."
"In what way?"
"Every way. She's pretty but you are beautiful. She has a nice body but you have THE body. Her chest is ok but yours is full. Her butt is not as big but yours is big and you got sexy curves. She looked kind of like a stick; she has no meat but you oh my gosh you got the right size. Also your legs are sexy and strong. Your not to big in the hips and not too skinny; you are just right." I started blushing and I shook my head.
"I'm just telling you the truth. Also her lips are small. Your lips are full; not too small and not too big, just right and juicy," he said as he kissed me. He closed his eyes and he bite on his lips.
"Just right," he said as he just looked at me, "and oh my gosh when we make love OMG. You are sooo perfect that our bodies fit perfectly together."
"Trevor stop," I said as I turned my head and started blushing.
"I'm just telling you the truth," he said as he put his hand under my chin and turned my head to look at him, "I love you."
"I love you too," I said as he kissed me.
