Badboy's Venom

chapter 34

ZOE'S POV

A horn sound snaps us back to reality from our fantasy world. "Shit that must be my parents." Mike exclaims and I widen my eyes at him.

Who wouldn't be happy to see their parents after a while? It can only be Mike Brown. My subconscious rolls her eyes at my ridiculous question. "Baby don't just stand there. Keep moving." He orders as he claps his hands in front of my face. "Moving to where?" I question. "Head to the living room I'm coming now." He responds as he takes in hand the remote gate, pressing the button to open. "Here's your phone." He hands it to me. I stare at him, standing statue-still. He then looks at me with pleading eyes that's when I decide to depart the room, heading to the living room.

I just don't understand why all of a sudden he's being dramatic. I mean we're talking about Mike here, the one who intimidate every pupil at school. Yeah right this is not school, his home. Maybe that's how he is with his parents around. I give a little chuckle to myself. I take a seat on the couch in the living room, staring at the blank massive TV against the wall. Car doors closes outside which means his parents are approaching here soon. I'm beginning to feel nervous now with my heart leaping up and down.

Mike jogs to the living room in a hurry, tripping on his last step on the stairs. I can't control myself but laugh hard as ever. "Fuck you!" He says, smirking at me and quickly jumps on the couch next to me where I'm seated. He charmed me, behaving my age with those pants below his butt. This black casual outfit just suits him. Gosh! I think I'm falling into swag, I smile at my thoughts.

His parents enter inside the house through the living room sliding door. My heart race as fast as it can, not having any clue how they are or their attitude. "Honey, we're home." A high-pitched voice yells, obviously that's his mom. Her eyes landing on Mike and I who are busy smiling at each other, still laughing at Mike who tripped. We end our laughter as they enter. Mike's mom is followed by Mr Brown behind her.

Mrs Brown is a nice white looking lady with a delicate body, if they'd say she's in her 20's I wouldn't disagree though her face says otherwise. She moves towards us with her high elevated heels. She's wearing a short tight dress, a little bit above her knees.  She's your modern style type of mom, you can tell already. No wonder her house is this way. I want to be like her too, own my expensive things and get married to his son.

"And who are you beautiful lady?" She questions me as she's taking her seat opposite us. What? Is she talking to me? She just called me beautiful too. "I'm Zoe Jackson." I respond as I was just admiring her. She's so kind, her high-pitched voice and smile agrees with me "When will you stop making our house a frat house?!" Mr Brown questions with anger filling his voice as he stares at Mike then take his seat next to his gorgeous wife. Mr Brown looks exactly like Mike, they are intimidating yet handsome with their tall skinny body not that much skinny though.

"Come on love, give the child a break." Mrs Brown pleas. "No Charlize, this kid should stop bringing girls as he likes here and those house parties he always throws I'm well aware of them. The neighbours are always complaining to me." Mr Brown snaps at his wife, Mrs Brown just shrugs her shoulders. "Dad you should stop yelling at me I'm old now and bring your own remote gate next time." Mike backfires. "Excuse me?" Mr Brown looks intimidating. "Oh please will you two give me a break, we just got here for God's sake." Mrs Brown says, throwing her hands in the air.

"I missed you mom." Mike tells Mrs Brown. "Oh I missed you too my boy." Mrs Brown responds with a grin covering her face.

Mama's boy.

I smile at the two of them, how cute. "So Zoe are you and my son like-" "dating?" She finishes, looking at the both of us. "No mom, she's my friend." Mike answers; I look at him in disbelief. So I'm one of his fuck buddies! He avoids making eye contact with me while answering his mom; he knows I'm mad already. "Friend? Since when?" Mrs Brown questions, suspecting something "A while, actually we were on our way out. " Mike says, standing up on his feet and taking in hand the BMW keys from the table.

Mr Brown shifts his eyes to Mike's hand then to me, looking directly into my eyes. I quickly move mine, feeling slightly uncomfortable with his intimidating look. He's handsome as Mike. I swear that three second look I captured those eyes, they're brown just like Mikes'. Oh yes! And Carl's too; very charming eyes which call for one's attention, Carl? I miss him. "Visit some other time Zoe." Mr Brown says as I was about to step outside the house. That's the only time he talked to me. "Thank you, I will." I nod to him and Mrs Brown smiles at me, I return back the smile and we leave the house.

The garage door is open, I glance my eyes over to spot a black Mercedes G63 wagon. My jaw tenses at the car they arrived with. I step inside the BMW passenger seat as Mike gets inside the driver's seat, putting on the engine to life. "Are you mad at me?" He queries as we pull off beginning to drive. I don't answer to him. I stare outside the window.

"Baby you know I love you right." He says. "Then why am I your friend?" I question angrily as my blood begins to boil. "I didn't want them to think I'm taking advantage of you like I did to the other girls; that's why. I'll introduce you formally next time." He remarks. As he talks about other girls he had slept with, I frown feeling a sharp pain in my heart. "Sorry I didn't mean to mention that." He apologetically says. "It's cool." I say blankly.

He pulls off the car. "Wanna try something?" "Depends what it is" I say, having no clue what he's on about. He removes his seat belt. "Come this side." He orders. "Mike no no no. There's no way I'm driving." I decline to him. "Just trust me." He urges and steps out, grabbing my hand to step out of the passenger's seat. I bring my hand in his and move to the driver's seat. I put on the seat belt with my body shaking. "Baby relax" He says, holding my chin. "Okay" I say quietly.

"Hold on the steering wheel tightly and focus on the road." He orders and I do as told. He set on the car as it is an automatic car, consisting of two pedals. "On your left foot pedal is the brake and on your right the accelerator. You only use your right foot okay." He informs me. "Okay" I nod,still shaking. "Baby relax, let's accelerate." I put a lot of effort and the car reacts "Slowly babe, unless you want to kill us both." He jokes. This time I'm steeping on the accelerator slowly and there we're moving perfectly. "Mike I'm doing this. I'm driving!" I whoop excitedly. "Fast learner." He rolls his eyes and we continue with the lessons.
