Also, i don't appreicate it when i litterally update and then someone comments update THATS VERY VERY ANNOYING. updates take damn time! and a lotta time to really motivate you to right. please dont do that, it's a way of pissing me off. enjoy this chappie. BYE. PIC OF RAIN DADDY ON THE SIDE, HE IS FINEE

“Bye daddy.” I gave my dad a hug  he hugged me tighter. Mama was here, and it was 9:30 time for me to go. “Bye baby you stay smart I’ll talk to your mom about seeing you sometime next week,” a smile formed on my face. “Okay!” I chuckled as I got into the car.

“Chanel what’s wrong? You been crying?” my dad said with a concerned look on his face I frowned, switching over in my seat her eyes were red and puffy. She’d been crying. 

“What’s up ma’?” I say concerned, as much as I wanted to ask why’d she lie to me I decided I wouldn’t bring it up, I didn’t wanna stress or upset her anymore.

“I’m fine you guys! And trey you can have her next weekend, if she doesn’t have any plans.” Mama spoke.

“Where she be goin’?” He bent down putting his hand on the top of the car, smirking. 

“Out.” Mama spoke smiling, showing her pretty teeth.

“Ya’ alright’ bet not be hangin’ wit’ no lil’ boys.” I instantly blushed, turning around hiding my cheeks, thinking about C.J 

“We better get going. I’ll call you later on.” Mama said, putting the key into the ignition. 

“Aight’ bye. Love ya’ Rain” I just smiled putting a thumbs up, it’d be weird if I say ‘I love you’ I barely knew the man.

Me and mama drove off, before I noticed I was out like a light.

When we got back to the hotel, I was beyond tired. I knew mama especially had to be tired because she did the most driving. I had jumped in the shower, and also shaved and all that good stuff. I then got into my night clothes. 

“Rain Imma’ bouta’ go to sleep.” She pulls the covers back on her bed before climbing in in just her underwear and a tank top. “Goodnight” I mumble.

I made myself comfortable on the bed, until my phone rang “Hello?”

“Rain.. where ya’ at?” 

“C.J?”

“Yea.”

I turned over in my bed looking at the clock 1:58am.

“C.J! It’s 1 o’clock in the morning  what do you want?” I hissed, I wasn’t even in the mood to talk. I just wanted to go to sleep. 

“I need you.” I heard his voice crack on the other line. I jumped up in bed. “What happen?”

“Man my momma died.. I just need somebody ta’ talk to dawg.” I put my hand on my forehead. I could only imagine the pain he’d been going threw.. I couldn’t even think about losing my mother. 

“Where you at?” I didn’t know how in the hell I was gonna get there OR what I was going to tell mama but I needed to be there for C.J, he’s always been there for me. 

“Mac’s house.” Mac was Monte’s friend we always went over there.

I smacked my lips, “Is Monte there?”

“Naw’”

I sighed deeply. Damn. What have I gotten myself into? “I’m on my way.”

I got up from bed, making sure to be extra quiet so I wouldn’t wake momma up. I went into the bathroom and slightly turned to water on, brushing my teeth. Since I didn’t brush my teeth that good I popped some gum in my mouth. 

I took my bonet and scarf off and threw my hair into a long ponytail. I then slipped on some grey sweatpants, with a tank top and a hoodie.

“I’ll be back momma..” I mumbled. Though I knew she couldn’t here me.

It took exactly 15 minutes to get to Mac’s house. When I got there as always, it was crowded with a lotta’ peoples. I walked in being greeted by Mac’s girl, Danielle. “Hey boo! Where yo’ momma at?” I swear that’s the first thing everybody ask me like can I get a how you doin’ or somethin’?

“S-she’s a home” I smiled.

“Alright tell her I said hi.” Danielle was always a really nice lady, No doubt that Mac didn’t deserve her. All she does is be loyal and faithful but he still fucks around.

“C.J’s in the back.” She winked at me as I went into the back room where C.J was, sitting on his bed looking like he hadn’t slept in days.

I didn’t even bother to say anything, I knew exactly what was wrong. I just held him, letting him let out all his tears on my hoodie. “It’s gonna be okay…” I say rocking back and forth with him. I planted a kiss on his forehead. 

We made ourselves comfortable in the bed, I took my shoes and socks off and my hoodie. C.J was facing me with tears in his eyes. “It’s okay C.J, don’t worry you know I’ve got your back, no matter what.”

“Thank you Rain I seriously appreciate you so much for being there for me when I need you. I love you.” 

“I love you too C.J” I finally said it back, sparks ran threw my body.

Before I knew it, we were both out in a deep sleep.

I flickered my eyes open to see C.J coming back in the room with some juice.

“What time is it?”

“5:30, why?” 

“Shit I gotta go! I gotta go!” I jerked up out of bed slipping my hoodie on and my shoes. I grabbed my phone, purse, and the room key before almost exiting the front door. C.J pulled me back by my arm. “I love you. And you better be safe.” I chuckled. “I love you too, and I’ll try.” We kissed on the lips before I ran out the house like my life depended on it, hell it did.

When I made it back to the hotel my body tensed up and I completely froze. 

There mama stood looking pissed as ever. Shit 

“WHERE IN THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?” She screamed

“I-I-I uhhhh..” I tried to think of lies but I didn’t. damn. I couldn’t stopped at a C.V.S and came back with something like I went to the store. 

“You uh WHAT!” She put a hand on her hip. 

“Mama I’m sorry!” Was all I could say, there was no sense of me lying, anyways.

“You been fucking?”

“NO!”

“Rain where the hell you been? And you betta’ tell me nothing but the truth or I will bust a cap in yo’ ass.”

“Fine.. C.J’s mom died, ma. He needed me what else was I supposed to do? I didn’t do nothin’ momma I promise” 

“You could’ve told his ass no. He could’ve set you up – Rain, boys only want one thing.”

“Well C.J isn’t like other boys ma! if he was I would know!” I yelled, defening C.J

“You wanna make the same mistake I did rain? And get pregnant by a guy who doesn’t give a damn about you? And have your life go down-hill because of a baby at 16?” she screamed at me.

I felt tears swell up in my eyes, “Nice knowing I was a mistake”
