Let's go.

Jordan up there.

David POV

  I woke up later that night asking myself did earlier just happen. I got my answer when I felt my arms wrapped around my baby. He really is here, a nigga mad hype at the moment. He slightly stirred around but that just made me pull him closer to me. I really missed him. It's like when a part of you goes away and you never know when it may come back. You could basically say its like a boomerang that's thrown mad far that may take forever to actually return (I know I basically repeated myself but I wanted to clarify what I'm trying to say). I laid there with him in my arms as I basically played in his hair and just thought about what he had to endure from his parents in the last I don't know, three months or so?

  I have to do something about them soon or else he may not come back at all and I don't know what I would do if that happens. I know he heard me say that I love him earlier and I meant every word  that I said. I really do love this boy so fucking much that it scares me. When he was gone, I basically fell into a depression spell. I couldn't bear going to school because there was too many memories there. I still made sure I turned in my homework and allat because I knew he would've killed me if I fell off that hard. My mom tried to make me go but it was no use if he wasn't there. He was the light at the end of the tunnel. The one thing that could make everything better. If you weren't telling me that you found him or knew where he was at, then you shouldn't bother even talking to me. It's like I couldn't even recognize myself.

  It's funny because we weren't even together when he went missing. At least that's what I thought. We barely spoke and I tried my damnest to avoid him after that whole Dominic thing went down. I failed because later at the party, I was drawn to him like a magnet. I know y'all probably saying "well why did you leave when the lights came on?" I can explain that part, my mom had called me and told me that she had to work late so she wouldn't see me until tomorrow afternoon. I was planning on bringing him back to my crib just to talk and smooth things over. No I wasn't worried about sex, it was too soon for that, plus we still had to figure out if we were together or not. I started to draw smiles circles in his hair as he slept. I guess he started to notice as he woke up and those beautiful hazel eyes fluttered at me. It's like everything stops when he looks at me, damn.

  "I hope I didn't disturb your sleep handsome. How'd did you sleep?" I said smiling at him. "It was great. Your pillows are so soft." he said laying his head on my chest. "What times is it?" he asked. "It's 6:45." I answered him (A/N: They had sex earlier that day, but y'all knew that. Right?). "Jordan is so gonna kill me." he mumbled. "Why wassup?" I asked wondering why he said. "Knowing him, I know he texted me multiple times throughout the day, especially when we got  out of school, and I have yet to respond nor call him. I was a little preoccupied." he said smiling at me. "Just call him and let him know that you with me. He should be cool once he hears that." I suggested. "It's no point, especially since Sage and them dropped food off at my house, yup I'm in for the yell/lecture of a lifetime." he said sighing.

  "Do you have any spare toothbrushes? I high key wanna brush my teeth as well as go to the bathroom right now." he said. "Yea they in the bathroom. Look to the left of the mirror." I said as he got up and went to the bathroom. I took a peek at that ass as he walked, what it's mine right?

Alexander POV

  I walked into the bathroom and flicked on the light. I first went to relieve myself. After I finished, I washed my hands and took a quick look at myself in the mirror. "You are a survivor. Is it gonna be them or you?" I said to myself as I took a deep sigh. I remembered that he said the toothbrushes are to the left of the mirror, so I looked to my left. There was a little sign that read: "In case bae (Alex) stays over". "That's so sweet. Creepy but sweet." I said aloud. He didn't just have a toothbrush, he had a rag, towel and allat other stuff. It was kinda like I was staying at a hotel, but I'm not complaining. After brushing my teeth and rinsing my mouth out with mouthwash, I returned back to his room to find him now sitting up in the bed.

  That body! Whew lord! God knew what he was doing. I walked over to him and sat on his lap. "What ya thinking about?" I said playing in his hair as his hands cupped my ass. "You." he simply said. "What about me? Is it bad?" I asked curiously. "No. Not at all. I just can't believe that your really here. I've dreamed about the day you would return. Alex you have no idea what it was like for me when you was gone." he said making circles on my back. "I wanna hear about. Tell me." I said, sounding like an eager ass kid. "Shortly after we found out you was gone, I was still hopeful that you would come back. After about a month later and you still weren't anywhere to be found, I fell into a depression. I didn't want to go to school because everything there reminded me of you. My temper got shorter because I grew frustrated that I couldn't find you and will probably never see you again." he said.

  I could tell that it was getting to him because his voice was cracking when he said that last part. "I felt like it's my fault that you got kidnapped in the first place, I shouldn't have asked you to come to that party. I really don't know what I would've done without you." he said with his head down. "Hey. I'm here now. Isn't that what matters the most? Me being right here, right now with you?" I said, lifting his head up and kissing him.

  "Yes it is. Alex, I know it's too soon to say this but I'm really in love with you and would be happy as hell if you did me the honor and became my boyfriend." He said looking at me, nervously waiting for my response. "We kinda did things out of order but yes I'll be your boyfriend." I said smiling at him. "You're all mine, officially that is." He said gripping my waist and kissing my neck. "I thought that was obvious 6 hours ago." I laughed. "Don't laugh at me lil baby." He said giving me the puppy dog face.

  "Aww I'm sorry." I said giving him another kiss. "I meant what I said Alex, I really do love you." He said making me blush. "I know you do." I said smiling at him. "I also know that you was battling yourself internally when it came to your feelings for me too." he said giving me a serious look. How the hell did he know that? "Um-" "Alex, I could see it all over your face. You would be hesitant on whether or not you wanted to kiss me as even flirt with me. One minute you kissing me. The next, you telling to get out of your way. I could tell you loved that shit though, hence why I never stopped." he finished. "I'm sorry it was just-" "Your parents. You didn't want me to get close for fear that they use it against you. I didn't understand it then, but I do now." he said kissing me. 

  He then laid us back in the bed and wrapped his arms around me. "Speaking of them, do you want to talk about what they did to you for the past few months?" he asked as I played in his waves. I took a deep breath and began to tell him everything from all of the torture to me escaping. When I finished, he just held me tighter. "Nobody should go through that shit and it kills me that there was nothing I could do about it. I'm so glad you managed to come back to us. I definitely have to thank Ms.Mary for what she has done. She's a real one." he said. "Yeah. She really is. I don't know where I would've been if it wasn't for her. Now I get to kiss you as much as I want" I said kissing him. "Wait, what happened after that? If you left there three weeks ago, why haven't I seen you at school or around here period?" he asked.

  "Jordan decided that it was best that I went to a hospital out of the city as my parents would've probably found me much easier had I stayed. Plus I had to stay there for that long so that my bones could heal and so they could check for more internal damage. I also didn't want y'all to see me in that condition so that's another reason." I explained. "It didn't matter what condition you was in, as long as you was alive and breathing, but I understand both of the reasons." he said. I smiled as I just looked at him. You know that look that you give bae when you just sit there and say "Damn you really mine"? Yeah that look. "What? What's wrong?" he asked concerned.

 "Nothing. I was just thinking how lucky I am. You could have anyone you want and you chose me." I said. He shook his head "No I'm lucky. Your the kindest, sweetest, sexiest guy in the world, whose smile and personality lights up a room, better yet a whole building. Any guy that get the chance to call you theirs would be the luckiest man alive. I'm just happy its me." he said as I was smiling so hard. He almost got a round 2, but I had to remind myself that we haven't went on our first date yet. I mean what happened earlier was a little reunion ceremony/rare occasion. I didn't plan on that but his sexy ass made it hard for me to resist. 

  I quickly snapped out of my daydream when I realized how dark it was outside. "Hey big head, what time is it now?" I asked him. "It's 11:15." he said. Oh shit! Jordan is really gonna kill me. I jumped out of the bed and started putting my clothes on. "What's up? What's the rush?" he asked as I was getting my phone. As soon as I turned the screen on, I saw that I had a ton of messages from Jordan. The last one saying get home now in all caps. Yup, I'm dead. "This is the rush." I said showing him the message. "Oh damn he's pissed. Lemme throw something on and I'll take you home." he said getting out of the bed. I bit my lip hard as hell when I said his body. God has really blessed him. He threw on some sweats, slides and hoodie and I started walking to the door.

  "Hold up" he said grabbing my arm. "Wha-" I started to say but was cut off by his lips on mine. It started turning into a make out session (A/N: I'm crying because that typical line would've fit perfectly here. Y'all know the one ctfu), with him pinning me against the door. After finally regaining my state of mind, I broke the kiss. "That's what." he said grabbing my ass. "Come on ugly." I said as i walked out the door. Nobody was home even after all that time. He held my hand the whole ride to my house. As I was about to get out of the car, he stopped me again. "Your mine now so I better not see you entertaining that weak ass nigga (referring to Dominic) or any other nigga." "Um I better not see you entertaining none of these hoes or thots sir and yo ass better be in school." I fired back. "I will. Can I get a good night kiss?" he asked. I rolled my eyes because I knew where this was gonna lead and I couldn't afford that at the moment. 

  "Just a little one." I said as I gave him a peck and ran out of the car and in the house. I tried to tip toe upstairs when Jordan flicked the lights on revealing him and Mariah sitting on the couch. "Sooooooooo Alex, you can't answer the phone?" he started. "I'm sorry I was-" "Don't say you were busy with Sage and Aurora because they brought your food here and asked if you came back yet, so where were you? Better yet, who were you with?" he asked. "Um I was-" "Don't you even think about lying." Mariah said damn. "I was at David house." I answered honestly. "So what was y'all doing all day that you couldn't answer the phone?" he asked. OK so do I make up a lie or do I tell the truth, which might make everything a bit worse. "We just talked about what happened to me and how he was holding up while I was gone." I said. 

  "Alex you have to let us know where you are at ll times. You know they are coming back from you and you not telling us or communicating with us doesn't exactly help either of us." Mariah said. I instantly started feeling guilty. "You are right. I'm so sorry for not letting you guys know where I was. I know y'all probably was worried that they got me again. I promise to keep you in the loop when I make moves." I said as I got up to hug them. "Alex what's this?" Mariah said looking at my neck. Damn it David! Now I'm about to get grilled. "So let me ask you this, what else did you and David do while you was over there?" Jordan questioned me once again. It's now or never. "Uh, we made out and then he asked me to be his boyfriend." I said, partially telling the truth. He didn't need to know everything right?

  "Is that everything?" he asked with a "you better not lie to me look". "Yup that's pretty much it." I said smiling. "You're lying. You mean to tell me that all you and him did was talk for about 12 hours?" he asked. "We had sex...." I mumbled. "What was that?" he asked. "Um we had sex. It wasn't on purpose though. I guess it was  the heat of the moment." I said. Well at least the truth is out *nervous laugh*.  "I told you! Gimme my 50$" Mariah said to him. I was high key confused. "We knew he was feeling you. We got to know him very well over the last few months. So we made a little bet. Thanks for helping me out." he said slightly annoyed. "How was I supposed to know?" I said. "That's besides the point. I can't police what you do with him because you just gonna do what you want anyway. I will say this, Alex be smart and I hope you make smart decisions for yourself. I'm also gonna have a little talk with David too." I don't like the sound of that.

  "Y'all used protection right?" Mariah asked me. I nodded my head yes. "That's my baby. Growing up on me. I just pray you know what you're doing." she said as I sighed. "It really wasn't supposed to happen like that but I can't nor do I want to take it all back." I said. "I hear you kid. Now go get ready for school tomorrow and Alex please make sure you let us know where you are. It's crucial during these times." she said as I nodded my head. "I'm starving. Do I still have my cheese steak?" I asked them. "Nope you took to long coming back so I took it off your hands. It was really good!" Jordan fat ass said. "You always eating something." I said annoyed. Now I don't have nothing to eat. I just decided to drink three glasses of orange soda, shower and go to bed.  Before I could go to sleep, I checked my phone and saw that I had few messages from David. The recent one read: "I had a fun time today with you baby. I can't wait to see you tomorrow." 

Today has been a good day.

I'm glad everyone is enjoying the book so far. 

I feel like if you can't feel what you're writing, then it's not worth writing. Your book should be able to take you on a emotional roller coaster/journey you know?

Now you guys see how David felt.

At least Alex didn't die or anything.

They foul for making a bet on him though.

Thoughts?

Alex?

Jordan?

David?

Mariah?
