I woke up out of breath.

I look over to my right and see Tim's alarm clock read: '8:55 PM.'

"Oh dear lord."

I said scrambling out of Tim's bed.

Tim woke up groaning and yawning at the same time.

"W-what time is it?"

Tim said tiredly.

"8:57 boy!"

I yelled,

I have to leave. Oh my, mama's gon' kill me."

"Oh wow I didn't even realize it was that late."

Tim said wide awake now.

"But don't worry honey, as long as your home I don't think she'll care a ton."

I looked at him confused.

"Boy my mama ain't no whi' girl, once I get home she bouts ta' get the strap and whoop that a-."

Before I could finish we heard the front door open.

"Timmy hun I'm home!"

His mom is home.

I looked at Tim in fear and shock.

"Tim you ain't tell me she was going to be here around this time!"

I screamed and whispered at the same time.

I walked around the room frantically thinking of ways to leave without her noticing me but I didn't have enough time to think because I heard 2 other voices come in.

His Dad and Brother.

"Lord have mercy on my soul."

I prayed.

"Gona l-look at me,"

Tim said grabbing my shoulders to turn around and face him.

You can stay in my room while I distract them downstairs so you can leave ok?"

I nodded.

"I'll give you a signal to leave, I'll,

Tim said thinking looking up at the ceiling.

snap my fingers."

"Ok."

I said.

He kissed me.

"I hope I see you again soon suga, call me when you can ok?"

I nodded.

He winked and went his way downstairs.

I was shaking so much from fear, I couldn't even function right.

All I knew was, I had to get out of here fast.

His stairs weren't old and didn't creek so much, which meant I could easily sneak out without getting heard.

Hopefully.

I went down the stairs half way to see Tim talking to his family.

"Hey Timothée how are you doing boy?"

His dad said patting him on the back.

"Good,

Tim said chuckling.

just tired that's all."

He looked very much like his father who was very handsome.

"Hey y'all should come sit at the table and play checkers or some with me."

Tim said.

"You bastard, I would beat ya' in a heartbeat.

His older brother James said.

"Oh yeah let's play then!"

Tim said while laughing.

"Mom, Dad y'all wonna' join?"

Tim asked.

"For sure."

They both said.

They all made their way to the dining room table, everyone back turned.

Then Tim snapped his fingers which was my cue to leave.

I made my way the other half of the stairs nearly at the door when my butt accidentally knocks down a vase close to the door.

My heart stopped and I couldn't move.

"What in the world just happened?"

Timothée mother asked.

I could hear her trying to stand up from her chair and make her way to the front door but before she or anyone could, Tim distracted them.

"Oh mama it's fine ima' check it out y'all stay right here."

Tim came out the dining room place and saw me crying in fear and embarrassment.

He ran to me quickly and gave me a hug then said,

"Don't you cry, I won't let anyone hurt you like I promised. Be safe on the way home, ok?"

I gave him a sad smile and a nod and biked my way home.
