Chapter 9: |09| Drama

Since the day I met youWords: 17074

"Did you go to school yesterday?"

"Mhm"

"Really?"

"I left like halfway"

I roll my eyes, "I'm not even surprised"

He puts his phone down, "How long till your friends get here"

"Not long, I think they're on their way"

He lifts my leg over his underneath the comforter, "I need you to stay over cause this ain't enough"

I stroke his face, "Come to mine on Saturday. My parents won't be back till like nine in the evening"

"You sure?"

I nod

"Ight"

As I started to kiss him I felt his hand raising higher and higher until he reached where I wanted him to reach. "You don't need this"

"So take it off", I murmur into his mouth

He tugs off my underwear from underneath my skirt, rubbing the folds of my pussy with his fingers and I moan softly as he keeps doing so.

"You're so wet"

I know

Two of his fingers enter me and I gasp as I hold onto him, soon enough I start to adjust as he pumps them in and out of me. "Fuck-

"Shhh"

"Zay", I moan

"How good does that feel"

"Very"

"Next time you wanna be kissing guys at a party, just remember who's making you feel like this"

I love it when he gets jealous

"It's never gonna happen"

"Glad you know"

I kiss him softly whilst spreading my legs a little wider so that I can feel him more. I just know that by the end of this my hair is gonna be messed up. I so wish I could fuck him right now.

"Zay", I moan as his fingers pick up the pace

"You gonna cum for me?"

I nod against him, suddenly feeling myself actually about to have an orgasm. How the fuck did he get me to do it on demand and why was he able to do that so quickly?

"Oh my-....fuck"

"Good girl"

I think I have a praise kink

"You know I'm yours", I murmur

Xavier kisses my head, "I know baby"

I just had to make sure he wasn't actually mad about the kiss that happened at the party....

He eventually pulls out his fingers, teasingly showing me the mess on his fingers and I roll my eyes playfully before handing him a pack

of wipes.

"Now you've got me hard as fuck"

I stroke the chain around his neck, "Good"

His phone buzzes and he reaches over to the nightstand before checking it, "Gates open"

"They're here?"

"Mhm"

"I'm gonna tell them"

"You are?", He says surprised

"Unless you don't want me to"

"No tell them, especially that-

I raise an eyebrow

"Friend of yours", He finishes off carefully

"I will"

"Good"

"I love you", I let him know

"For real?"

I nod and he grins before kissing me again, "Say it again"

"I love you. And I've loved you for a long time"

He continuously kisses my neck and I smile, "I love you too"

I don't think the whole I love you thing is meant to be as dramatic as some people make it seem, and I also don't think that there should be a certain amount of time before you tell someone. When you know, you know. Then again I've had sixteen years to realise.

I wipe my lip gloss from his lips, "Are you coming to the charity ball this year?"

He never comes

"Nah, what'd I need to go to that for"

"It's for charity", I point out

"I can donate any day of the week"

"I'll be there, and so will our families"

"I ain't putting on a tux"

"Yes you are"

"No-

"Yes you are. It'll be fine, just think about it"

"We're here!", Indiah calls out from downstairs

"Alright I'm gonna go hang with the girls", I give him a kiss before getting up

"Alright"

I sort myself out real quick, checking my hair in his bathroom mirror. Thankfully it didn't get too messy, "Yo can I keep this?"

"You can keep the next one", I take my thong back from him before putting it back on followed by my shorts

Then I went downstairs to the kitchen, where the girls were. Blair was feeding King a snack and Indiah was conversing with Destiny.

"Hey"

"Hey", The girls reply

I sit at the island beside Destiny, "Everything good with you two?"

"They still not talking", Indiah tells me

"Guys come on"

"All Blair has to do is apologise", She says simply

B scoffs as she turns back, "Me? I did nothing wrong"

"Yeah you did-

"Like always you just assumed that I had no plans and decided we were going shopping, why the fuck do you decide what happens all the time"

"Not once do you ever give your input-

Blair stands up with annoyance, "I do. Your problem is that you have your head so far up your ass and you think that the world revolves around you. Yes I went out with CJ, no I'm not going to apologise for spending time with him because I was literally with you the day before. Get the fuck over it and stop whining like a little bitch-

"Girl please, whine over you? Ever since you started dating him you've forgotten that anybody else existed"

"Ok, that's not necessarily true" Indiah intervenes

"Thank you Indiah"

"Ya'll don't see it-

"There's nothing to see, I spend time with all of you and him. Why's it my fault that you have nothing to do when I'm busy"

I can't even believe this argument is happening right now, they bicker here and there (like any best friends would) but not to this extent.

"Here she goes turning it into something that it's not, that's what you do. You twist shit"

I facepalm knowing that this is not getting solved anytime soon.

"No you're just mad. Don't think we all haven't noticed how you're the only one who has never been happy for me now that I'm in a relationship" Blair says annoyed

I've never seen Blair get this mad before, props to her for speaking her mind though.

"Bullshit"

"I've always supported your feelings for Xavier, hell I'm the one who tries to get you to talk to him-

I clear my throat, "Um actually guys I wanna talk to you about something"

"One sec", Blair replies

"Hold on, how strong are these feelings?" Indiah interrupts again

D shrugs and Blair rolls her eyes, "Oh please-

"I don't need your support on nothing, if I wanna talk to someone then I'll talk to someone"

"So that's how it is"

"That's how it is", Destiny finalises

"Oh gosh", Indiah mutters

"Ok look I don't want you to hate me or anything for not saying something before but I honestly didn't know how to tell you-

"Amariah what are you talking about?", Destiny says confused

"I'm with Xavier"

The silence that entered the room was wild

Blair raises her eyebrows, Destiny blinks and Indiah just watches them both whilst waiting for a response. "You're what?", She finally questions

"Awww", Blair unexpectedly says

"Bitch?"

"I don't owe you nothing apparently, and Amariah is our friend"

"But....why would you do that" Destiny asks me with a frown. She looks very lost

I sigh, "Look it's complicated but we were kind of on and off. We've had feelings for each other way longer than yours developed and just didn't tell anyone"

"Right, but is he not like your brother-

"D", Indiah scoffs

"I'm just asking"

"No, not at all. Never saw him in that way" I answer

"Ok"

"That's it?"

"Dunno what you want me to say"

I'm trying to be nice and sympathise with her but she's not trying to reciprocate any kindness back. I get it, she likes him but I love him. And I don't wanna argue with my friend over a boy, I just won't.

"Jeez that was mean", Indiah frowns

"So is going behind your friends backs but that's a story for another day-

"Ok first of all I didn't go behind your back so let's not start", I say annoyed

"Oh really?-

"Yeah really, you don't own the male population and you've never even had a conversation with Xavier so for you to be getting this mad is ridiculous"

"Whatever you say Amariah"

"No don't whatever me cause you just about starting to piss me off, Blair's right about your head being so far up your ass-

"Dis-le encore"

-say it again-

No clue what Blair just said but I think she's agreeing.

"D come on you're not arguing with her over a boy, especially my brother. He ain't even all that, there's plenty of guys who would love to date you" Indiah reasons

"He is all that-

She rolls her eyes "Alright clearly we're not getting anywhere, just go to the front room. I'll come in a sec"

"Whatever"

"MK let's go home", Blair says as she gets up

"Good idea-

"Woah woah woah ya'll can't just go, I'm gonna talk to D real quick"

I sigh, "Look I love that you wanna be the peacemaker but Destiny has hard ears, I'm gonna call you tonight"

She pouts as Blair checks her phone

"Oh shit, my dad's back. Ok now I actually do have to go, I'm sorry I'll call you guys. MK you need a ride?"

"No it's ok I drove, go see your dad"

She smiles a little before hugging us both and leaving. Although her parents aren't that great Blair is much closer to her dad than her mom so any chance she gets to see him, she takes it.

Indiah turns back to me once she's gone, "Look I'm gonna try talk some sense into her"

I raise my hands with surrender "Do what you gotta do, I'm gonna get my stuff and then I'm gone"

"Fine whatever, I'll call you later"

I left my shoes in Xavier's room so at this point I don't even know if I'll end up leaving right away. I saw a waft of smoke travelling in my direction as I opened his door, the whole room unsurprisingly smelt like weed. "I'm leaving, have you seen my shoes?"

"Already?"

"Yes"

He sits up knowingly, "Hold on. What's wrong"

"Nothing"

"You're doing that face, come here"

"I don't do a face"

"Yes you do, come"

I sit next to him and he puts his arm around me, kissing my cheek. "Talk to me", He murmurs

"I'm just annoyed"

"About?"

"At Destiny"

"What'd she do"

"She's just so annoying sometimes and she thinks the world revolves around her, she also has her head so far up her ass which I will continuously repeat and-....."

I stop cause I don't like saying bad things about my friends but I'm really annoyed. Xavier nudges me slightly, "Go on"

"Like I get that she's upset about us but she's acting like I just stole her ex or something, you guys haven't even spoken and further more I had you first but I'm not about to argue with my friend over a guy-...no offence"

"Don't waste your breath on her, I been telling you that that girls not your friend"

"Well she is but-

"No baby, no buts. You're too kind and forgiving, this is the same girl that tells Blair's business to whoever will listen and they're supposed to be best friends"

True, that's why I don't tell her anything that personal

I sigh, "Yeah...."

"Don't let her get you worked up"

I decide that I'm done talking about it, if I keep going on then I'll just get more annoyed.

"Give me the blunt please"

He puts it against my mouth and I take a long pull before holding his mouth against mine and exhaling into it.

Xavier then exhales swiftly, "I'm way too fucked up right now"

"I can tell", I say amused

His eyes are hanging low and he's very relaxed

"You don't need to go"

"Zay"

He stubs it out, "Yeah?"

"I told Indi I was leaving", I remind him

"I don't care, you're still mad. I'm not letting you leave in a pissed off mood" He unlocks his phone as he lies next me

"Sooo I'm being held hostage"

He just glances at me, "What do you wanna eat"

"You're gonna buy me food?"

"Nah I'm just asking for fun"

I dismiss his sarcasm, "Guess"

"In and out"

"Yesss", I cuddle next to him happily and he chuckles

"See you're already happy"

"Thank you", I murmur with a smile

"It's alright"

We hear a knock on the door

"What", Xavier replies

"Are you guys wearing clothes", Indiah asks from the other side

"Yes"

She eventually opens the door

"Destiny's gone"

"She still pissy?"

"Yeah, I did check her though cause I'm not having the way that she spoke to you-

"Get off my bed", Xavier complains as she worms her way in the middle of us

"Pfft no, I'm still your annoying little sister remember"

"Indi I'm not playing go away"

"Don't be mean" I say amused

"Exactly, we share Amariah. Although she was mine first so watch it, and you're on probation"

"You're on probation like every other day of the week-

Indiah notices his phone, "Oooo we're having in and out? I want something too" She pleads

"No", He says annoyed

"Pleaseeee, I always buy you shit" She reaches for his phone but he moves his hand away and I laugh

Xavier's silence means that shes won him over, he loves her really but won't show it on most days.

"Ok so I want-

"I know what you want"

"Jeez what a bitch" She then turns to me

"You can't forget about me"

"How can I my little needy princess"

It's always a fun time with us three, eventually Xavier tolerated Indiah's presence but I think that's just because food cheers anyone up. Then after that, despite both of their efforts of trying to get me to stay I headed home. I love them both very much but I also love my bed.

Anyway he said he'd come see me at work tomorrow so that's something to look forward to.

*

Nobody was home except for mom and Trinity, I think the others went to the store with grandma. I texted dad to get me a few things too so I'm hoping that he does, sometimes he likes to pretend that he didn't see my message.

I look back from loading the dishwasher, "Hey"

"Hey", Mom replies as she comes down the stairs

Before her pregnancy was kinda unnoticeable but she's now finally starting to show a little bit, it's weird because when she was pregnant with Aidan her stomach was a little bigger around this stage but I guess it's different each time round.

"Were you sleeping?"

She wipes her eye, "Yeah I was planning some shit with grandma then slept for about two hours. You eat at Indi's?"

"Yeah we had in and out. But ma you know that Blair and Destiny still got beef, she's mad cause B went out with CJ instead of going shopping with her when they never planned anything at all-....

I turn back when I don't hear any sort of laughter or response, "Mama"

Somethings not right...

I rush to her side immediately as she tilts, I noticed that she looked a little faint as she was coming downstairs slowly but I didn't think much of it. Now I'm genuinely worried.

She's in my arms as I'm sat here on the floor, "Ma" I shake her with worry

Trinity widens her eyes as she walks in, "Mommy"

I put my ear against her nose, "She's still breathing-

"What happened?"

"I don't know she just fainted", I panic

Now my sisters crying, "Mom"

"Why won't-

"We have to call daddy"

Thankfully the front door opens at the right time, God knows what would've happened if not. Dad, Neveah and grandma are back. He frowns once he sees us, immediately dropping everything and rushing over with grandma.

"Dakota"

"What happened?", Neveah asks with worry

"She fainted"

Slowly mama regains consciousness and her eyes open which brings me immediate relief, "Don't move her" Grandma instructs as she opens her bag

I let dad hold her because I can see that he's more panicked than me but he's trying not to show it for our sake, Neveah is very close to tears.

Mom rests a hand on her head painfully, "Fuck. My head hurts"

"You fainted", He says whilst tucking a hair behind her ear

Grandma checks her pulse before putting on her stethoscope, "Did she fall on her stomach?"

"No I caught her in time", I reply

Mom holds Trinity's hand, "Baby I'm fine ok?" She assures her softly

Trin nods and grandma gives her a reassuring smile, "She'll be ok"

Then she puts the stethoscope against her heart, "Hearts beating fine"

Dad kisses her head with relief and she re closes her eyes.

"Hold on sweetie I'm gonna need you to stay awake for another sec. Trin get your mom a bottle of water please"

She heads over to the fridge

"I can't, I'm exhausted"

"Just another minute" Grandma says softly

Mama covers her face, trying not to cry "I hate this"

Dad's face softens, "You'll get some sleep I promise. But you gotta have some water first" He says as Trinity hands him the bottle

I feel so horrible knowing that there's nothing I can do, she still has another five months to go.

"I'm not thirsty"

"Ma please. It'll help", I plead

We eventually got her to drink some, grandma did some checks on her and the babies, letting us know that all was good. After that she fell asleep on the couch, lying on dad, grandma was just telling us that it's normal for mom to feel faint at times and that we should make sure she's resting. Then she went home after double checking that everything was fine.

Daddy wanted to talk to us afterwards

"Is she gonna faint again?", Trinity asks with concern

"She'll be fine as long as she keeps resting and avoiding things that can be stressful. I'm gonna talk to her about the charity ball tomorrow morning, I've told Daryl she's not organising it anymore"

I make a yikes face, "She's not gonna take that well"

He chuckles, "Trust me I know, but it's for her own good. Look the next five months might be a little rocky, I'm telling you now she's gonna be annoyed a lot and moody too so please if she asks you to do something just do it without arguing" He looks at Neveah mostly as he says this

"I will", She replies defensively

"I'm just saying. And I'm gonna try to take a small amount of cases so I can stay with her but on some days I'll need you guys to help with Aidan, if somethings dirty just clean it regardless of who made the mess. If everything just stays clean then it gives your mom less things to complain about, you know what she's like"

"What about when we're at school and you're working?", Trinity asks

"GG will be here"

"Once again, she gon hate all this help you're giving her" I say amused

"Good thing I can handle her attitude"

We all laugh
