             Friday evening came so soon. It had been four days since Loy had found me but I hadn't heard from dad or anyone else so I was good for now. Carl and I had been making out alot lately which I had no problem with, just it felt so good I didn't know why I had waited that long to date. Lucy had treated us to dinner where we had met Charlie  whom she had introduced as her boyfriend and I had whispered a 'told you' to her which she had laughed off. Yeah, indeed Charlie was a rich boy since his dad owned a chain of hotels.
         
             And now I was gonna drop by Carl's home so I could help him write an important essay for college which was given to them last minute and told to hand in before exams for it was worth half the marks. It was not like I was a genius or what, I would just help him research as he wrote. So taking a taxi, I left my boyfriend's house which was just twenty minutes away.
      

           I found Essy's car in the driveway and wondered why he would be there yet he had exams to read for. Shrugging it off I knocked at the door and in a minute it flew open revealing a middle aged woman clad casually in white pants, a blue off shoulder blouse and black slippers. She smiled at me warmly. But I was already nervous since I knew she was his mom.
            "You must be prim, my son has told me about you, come in."she beamed stepping aside to let me in which I did smiling back anxiously.
             "You want a drink or anything?"she asked politely.
          "No, ma'am."I mumbled.
           "Call me Lydia, am not so old."she held out her hand for me to shake.
          "Carl is in his room and tell him I have gone to do some grocery shopping, will you."I nodded briefly then she left shutting the door behind her, I didn't see her carry a wallet, I shrugged it off with the thought that she had left it in her car or something. I beelined for Carl's room which I knew by heart.

           Knocking twice I entered, my boyfriend was sitting at his study table already writing, I kissed him briefly in greeting then sat opposite him.
           "You have already started."I stated the obvious. He nodded.
            "You took so long, we agreed on 7pm, it's 8 now."he whined. "But Essy helped me before going to help Jack too."he added. So Essy was helping Jack.
           "Now what should I help with?"I asked.
            "I am just halfway so help do more research from those books."he said pointing at the book shelf. So I started.

           An hour later we were lying on his four poster bed, my head on his chest in silence. We had managed to finish his essay and he handed it in by email. And then told me he had been reading all week he felt his head would burst. so he needed a break. Then I recalled I didn't know his course.
              "What are you gonna become?"I asked.
            "A physician."he replied. What?
          "I didn't know you were that bright!"I exclaimed and he laughed.
           "I am no genius, babe just that I love helping people move their bones again, that's all."he said.
           "I hope I didn't offend you when I said I didn't want to be a doctor."
           "No you didn't, everyone has their choices and your dad should have respected your decision." I silently agreed with him. Then my hands moved to feel his forming abs.
           "Don't do that, it's arousing."he said. I chuckled a bit then touched him again and I felt him shiver under my touch.
           "Do you ever want kids, if we lived together in the future?"I asked and he laughed.
            "I do but it depends on you since it's your womb." I didn't say I was gonna produce. I visibly shivered thinking about it.
          "I fear to give birth, it's so painful."I mumbled.
          "Then you won't have to, we could adopt or use another method, science exists."he replied.
            I lifted myself and using my elbows to support me, I looked him in eye.
           "But, do you see me in your future?"I asked. He nodded smiling and I smiled back.
           "You know I never wanted to marry when I was young. I could see dad's women suffer, I mean when my mom lived with him he used to beat her."I sighed.
         "He sounds a really cruel man."he commented.
          "So I fear that if we are together for long, you will change."I voiced my fears placing my head on his chest again.
        "You will get so used to having me around and change."
         "Babe, change is inevitable, you too will change. But I could never hit you, I don't support domestic violence and my dad has raised us that way. That was why I was so angry to see that guy harrassing you."he said.
         "And then you brushed it off like it didn't matter and I was dying inside. My big sister, who is a lawyer now was raped in her senior year of highschool."he said and I couldn't help but sit up immediately. He had a sister? And raped?
         "I am so sorry."I said sadly.
       "And she didn't get justice cause the guy had loads of money and just loved using virgins. She doesn't say it but I think that was why she chose law."I sympathized with him. He aslo said she was operating from London where she had studied uni from.

              I excused myself to use the bathroom which he had directed me was at the end of the hallway so I started my journey silently but stopped in my trucks with my eyes as wide as saucers on reaching an open door that seemed to be Jack's. Two bodies were wrestling on the bed with tongues down each other's throat and moans getting louder.
 
     "Christ!"I practically screamed and they scrambled apart. Jack and Essy!
