Tough Love Part 59
Hey everybody! &*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&* Chapter 59 Babies and Boys and Michael and Not Many Phone Callsâ?¦November 18th â??Remember them?â? Jermaine interjects. â??Oh,â? I laugh a little. â??Iâ??ve been so busy this week, I think I forgot.â? â??Youâ??re not busy are you? Itâ??s just that Hazel and I wanted a day to us and I know youâ??re comfortable around kids. So why not get paid for the things you love ta do the best? Right?â? â??Yeah. Let me help you go get them.â? So I go to his expensive-looking car, and try getting a heavy-weighted Jay since was sleeping. â??I can get him. You take the car-seat with you. Autumn is in it of course.â? So I do and hold the door for him as heâ??s going in. I close and lock the door so no intruder gets in. â??Whoa that was a load.â? He laughs. I smile a little. â??Okay, so me and Haz should be out for a while and I should get back here; hopefully no later than nine. Think you can handle it?â? â??I hope so.â? I say. Autumn was wide awake. â??I tried my best getting them to sleep at the same time. Itâ??ll be a while until she does again.â? I look at her and give the baby a small smile. â??Hey, if sheâ??s quiet in the carriage, leave her there,â? he smiles. â??Okay.â? â??Hereâ??s the different list of numbers, too.â? I take it. â??These SEEM reliable. Thank you.â? â??Un huh.â? â??This means so much to me, Lyric. Thank you.â? He strides up to me and hug me, a surprised, but welcomed gesture. I could tell he was really grateful. â??For fourteen dollars an hour, why not?â? I joke. He laughs and I make sure he pulls away safely. My nest big obstacle was wondering if I should leave Jay the way his father put himâ??on the couch on his tummy. Guess that was okay. â??Really, it was my job to watch them, but Jermaine thought about you and asked you instead.â? Michael told me over the phone. He had already left the house around noon. Guess you canâ??t keep a twenty-year-old in the house for too long. â??Yeah, but I had plans tonight, Michael, and I forgot about your niece and nephew. Now I donâ??t know what to tell M.J.â? I sniffle though Iâ??m not crying. â??We were looking forward to this.â? â??You know, I could help you.â? â??How?â? â??I can watch them for the rest of the time.â? â??Whatâ??s the catch, dang on it?â? I snap. He laughs. â??Havenâ??t thought about that one yet.â? â??Want me to break the bread between us?â? â??No and donâ??t use that term in vain. Theyâ??re family. Iâ??m not getting paid for that. Iâ??ll just see if I cn have some clear time by then.â? â??Where are you at anyway?â? â??With Quincy. Weâ??re just hanging.â? â??Hmm,â? I say. â??Well, Iâ??ll call you if they seem to be going through some Michael syndrome.â? â??Haha, canâ??t wait for the call.â? I smile and hang up. Well, Baby Autumn Jackson is staring at me and Iâ??m looking at her, too. I canâ??t keep her like this! So I take her out her carriage and play with her a little. Jay wakes up after an hour theyâ??ve been there. â??Whereâ??s Daddy?â? I look up from Autumn, who is vainly spoiled by me now. â??Your daddy and mommy are spending time together. Do you remember me, Lyric? Michaelâ??s friend.â? He looks at me blankly, so I jog his memory. â??You pretty.â? He laughs. I laugh with him. Autumn starts crying and I feed her a bottle. Jay wonâ??t let us out his sight and his sister is the same. So for that reason, I had to use the bathroom with the door half closed. â??I donâ??t want kids too soon,â? I tell Michael over the phone again. He called to check on me, and that was the first thing I told him. It was a few minutes before five and neither of Jermaineâ??s kids have went to sleep. Jermaine called and told me little things about them thatâ??ll help me to have better success. Not even the Sesameâ??s Street would help! â??I wouldnâ??t hope so but at THIS paceâ?¦â? â??Youâ??re jokes are horrid, Michael. Donâ??t talk to me again.â? â??Iâ??m playing.â? But I can tell by his laughter, he canâ??t control himself. â??Michael!â? I kept saying but he wouldnâ??t shut it, so I hung up. â??Finally!â? it was, letâ??s say, six something when the little munchkins went to sleep. I tried taking Jay upstairs, but he objected, so I laid him on the recliner to my left. With Autumn, I was going to sit her on the couch surrounded by pillows, but was too lazy to get up, so she laid on me as we fell asleepâ?¦. I hear the doorbell, one good time. I carefully lie Autumn down and put a pillow to the left of her and underneath her feet. Mama didnâ??t raise no fool. I had to turn the alarm off, ask who it was, look through the peephole, THEN unlock the door before whoever was going to get in. â??Who is it?â? â??M.J.â? I immediately frown. I seriously think itâ??s Michael pulling on a prank on me. But then I think about it, thatâ??s REALLY M.J.â??s voice! So I unlock the door before even checking. As soon as I swing the door open, M.J. leans over and give me and strong pressing against toâ??our lips that is. He bits his lip embarrassingly. â??Wasnâ??t expecting me cutie? Not so soon?â? â??No. And they werenâ??t either?â? He looks confused. I motion my arm in the door. He walks in. â??Let me take that for you.â? I was trying to hang up his jacket, but he shook his head. â??Iâ??m babysitting a friendâ??s children.â? I tell him. He turns back to me with a pained expression. â??Iâ??m sorry I didnâ??t tell you M.J. I forgot I promised Jermaine before I told you yes. He showed up today and I couldnâ??t leave his kids without a babysitter.â? He nods. â??Oh.â? â??Youâ??re free to help me, though.â? I smile. â??Itâ??ll be good practice.â? He looks at me alarmed. â??That way weâ??ll never go too far. Hereâ??s the reality right here.â? He looks down at them and laughs. Autumn balls up her fists and wakes herself up. M.J. looks at me. â??Can I?â? â??Yeah,â? I smile. Then I take his jacket and he picks her up. â??Think she needs changing?â? he asks. â??Why?â? I sit beside him. â??Because she wonâ??t stop crying.â? â??Sheâ??s just not familiar with you, thatâ??s all.â? After I show him how she likes to be held, I bring him a soda. Jay wakes up, next. I wish I had told M.J. to swing over HOURS AGO! Heâ??s the silliest, and I learned that they grew attached to his face pretty quickly. The only thing that kept ringing in my head was that I donâ??t supposed to have a boy with me here alone, even if heâ??s watching children with me. Plus Jermaine didnâ??t give me the go to have help, especially from a boyfriend! Now Iâ??m wondering if M.J. is thinking about our trip to the movies. â??Glad I listened to my dad for once.â? â??Why?â? â??Because I was going to get some tickets for a concert but he wouldnâ??t let me.â? â??Why?â? â??His money.â? â??You donâ??t?â? â??Lyric, he doesnâ??t even know Iâ??m questioning my future so much, so he DEFINETELY doesnâ??t want me to get a job right now. Even if he hates what Iâ??m doing, heâ??s not gonna want me to get distracted some more. So I live off of him.â? I look in his big eyes. I see the pain behind that wide smile. I feel bad and walk behind that couch, arms around his neck and kiss his forehead over and over. He smiles and as heâ??s about to turn around, he forgets he has Autumn in his arms. â??Maybe later?â? he says. I laugh. With M.J. skills, heâ??s able to get the kids comfortable enough to sleep again a few minutes before eight. This time, Iâ??m able to get them to lie down on my bed. M.J. stayed downstairs. â??Now, to us.â? I see that he has fixed Sprite in two separate cups. We cheer it. After I take a sip, I investigate it, making sure thereâ??s nothing in it. So I sit it down and donâ??t plan on drinking from it again. â??Whoâ??s kids are these?â? Do I really feel like getting into the Jacksons melodrama of how I know them? No. Not tonight. I might be giving up my date for tonight already. Can I get a kiss at least? â??Doesnâ??t matter.â? Then I lean towards him and start kissing him. Soon, I taste his tongue for the first time, and it feels like I canâ??t and donâ??t wanna escape M.J. at this point. At times when youâ??re kissing your boyfriend with yâ??all eyes closed, why would you? He literally pulls away. â??Oooh la, la.â? â??I know,â? as Iâ??m biting my own lip. I peck him again. He looks at me and Iâ??m starting to blush. He pulls me in again. M.J. gradually gets on me. Both of my legs are on each of his hips. â??Mmm,â? I rolled my eyes. He had me in a trance. â??Like it?â? he asks in a breathy tone. M.J. is nuzzling my neck. â??Do you?â? I donâ??t want to sound too easy â??cause I know Iâ??m easy enough for letting him do this to me. â??Heck yeah, I do.â? He gets up and seat on the other end of the couch. â??Want something to eat?â? â??Yeah, whatâ??cha got?â? â??Let me see what I can find.â? I laugh. â??â??Kay, let me seeâ?¦.â? I say. â??I got someâ?¦ravioli.â? He shrivels up his face, but I donâ??t want to give M.J. that either. â??What about some chicken?â? â??Fried?â? â??Yeah.â? â??Ucck.â? â??You eat chicken. Iâ??ve seen you.â? â??And Iâ??ve eaten that at home SO many times. But Iâ??ll cook itâ?¦for you.â? He goes in the freezer. â??Or some fish nuggets.â? He pulls them out. â??I know you can eat,â? he smiles. â??Southern girl.â? I say. So I was fixing chicken nuggets, grits, and fries. M.J. was helping with the fries when I heard the doorbell ring. I look at him, worried. What if itâ??s MICHAEL! I know M.J. wasnâ??t supposed to be here, but how do you supposed to care when your dad tells you heâ??ll be at work all day and would visit his friend (Sonny Navara). I mean he was going to make sure I left the house safely with M.J. And then Michael; he just decided to leave me and let me babysit. Iâ??ve got a life too people! More than yâ??all SHOULD! So I look through the peep. Donovan? I undo the alarm and open it. â??What â??sup?â? I say. â??Hey, can I talk to you?â? I look in the house. â??Iâ??m busy.â? â??Now, while I can?â? I look down. Shortly, his hand comes out to reach for mine. â??Look, now you and M.J. never talked. He didnâ??t think much OF you. Why be with him now? Lyric, thatâ??s fickle of you. Iâ??â? â??Donâ??t say it.â? â??Love you. Lyric, I LOVE YOU, OKAY? PLEASE, STOP PLAYING STUPID!!!â? I tug on his arm. â??Donovan, shut up!!!â? I yank on his arms again. â??Please.â? He breathes in a little. â??Okay. Sorry. I said I wouldnâ??t do it, but I just wanta know WHY?â? I didnâ??t blink. â??Okay, well hereâ??s a songâ?¦for you.â? â??Oh no,â? I tell him. He sits me on the glider and sits on the railing in front of me. He picks up his guitar. â??I think youâ??re pretty without any make up on I think youâ??re funny when you tell the punch line wrong I knew you got me when you let your walls come down, doowwn Before you met me, I was a wreck But things were kinda heavy You brought me life Now every Februaryâ? Thatâ??s Donovanâ??s birthday: February 9th. â??Youâ??ll be my Valentine, Valentine Letâ??s just talkâ?¦all through the night Thereâ??s no need to rush We can dance until we die You and I will be young foreverrrâ? He takes a deep breath. â??You make me feel like Iâ??m living a teenage dream the way you turn me on I canâ??t sleep; letâ??s runaway and donâ??t ever look back, donâ??t ever look back My heart stopsâ??the way you look at me Just one touch, now baby I believe This is real, so take a chance And donâ??t ever look back, donâ??t ever look backâ? He continues. Once heâ??s done, he gets up and rubs my chin with his genuine smile. Silence. â??What is it called?â? â??Havenâ??t named it yet. Maybe you could?â? â??Obviously it should be â??Teenage Dreamâ?? or somewhere along those lines.â? â??Yeah! Maybe I should.â? Donovan picks up his guitar. I see that his car isnâ??t parked in the driveway. â??Hey Donovanâ?¦.â? He turns around. â??Wanna join for dinner?â? He shrugs. â??Sure.â? I hold the door for him. â??Iii!â? M.J. says. â??Are you tryna finish up?â? I ask him. He smiles. â??Yeah.â? Then he sees Donovan. â??He returned something for me that I was important, so I invited him in. I was hoping heâ??ll help with the kids.â? I see Donovanâ??s confused look. Crap, I put my FOOT in my mouth! M.J. was gracious enough to tell him when I heard them cry. After we finished eating, I had M.J. and Donovan holding the tots. When Autumn burped, got it on Donnie, then fell asleep, Donovan didnâ??t push his luck. I made sure he walked away safe. â??Seeing you and M.J. happy, maybe I SHOULD back up. I just love you,â? he smiles. He squeezes my wrist and kisses my cheek. â??HEY!â? I say. â??This isnâ??t a bye. Itâ??s aâ?¦welcome to a new chapter. Weâ??re still friends Donovan.â? â??I know,â? he says and donâ??t turn back around because I donâ??t say anything to him. I close the door behind me. â??I know you arenâ??t playing possum.â? I say to Autumn as Iâ??m picking her up. â??Itâ??s about nine now. Jermaine should be here.â? At nine on the dot, he drops by. M.J. is in the bathroom. Hopefully he doesnâ??t walk out here. â??Here,â? I say as I knock on the door and when he opens it a little, I give him his jacket. He nods and closes the door. â??They werenâ??t a bother, were they?â? â??Noo not at all,â? I smile. But Iâ??m scratching my leg with my toenail. I was happy when he gave me the ninety-eight dollars and more important; he finally LEFT! Though I helped him strap them in. I guess Hazel was too good to walk in, but I donâ??t even care under THESE circumstances. M.J. opens the door a little. I run open and strap my legs and arms around him. â??Whoa, easy girl!â? he says. â??Your afro broke your fall.â? I say. Then I kiss him. â??You donâ??t wanna go out tonight anymore, do you?â? I sigh. â??We donâ??t want to overexpose ourselves to each other.â? I kiss him again. â??But we need to hang again. SOON.â? â??No.â? I look at him a little more alert now. â??Our date is gonna be something to remember.â? He says. â??Hope so.â? I smile. I learned that someone from M.J.â??s church dropped him off, so when I learned it wasnâ??t his dad, I counted my blessings. We smooched real quick. â??See you, beautiful.â? â??See you.â? I smile. â??How was your day?â? Dad asks when he got home. He called throughout the day, but like Iâ??ve said, he doesnâ??t hover. So I could slip so much under his nose though Iâ??m not proud of it. â??Fine.â? I smile. Michael nudges me. â??What?â? Dad says. â??Nothing,â? I laugh. â??What the heck youâ??re smiling so hard about?â? His teasing glare kept pressuring me, so I motion for him to get closer. I tell him most of it in his ear. Michael doesnâ??t know Donovan told me he loved me. I donâ??t want to make things worse for Michael. â??Well, I have a story for you.â? â??What is it?â? He holds out his hand, and I reach for it. Michael sits me on the railing and seat on the glider. Then he tells me about his day with Quincy and his wife. When I walk back in, Dad tells me time was ticking and that we should ask Katherine. I agreed. â??Hereâ??s the thing, you and Michael ask her.â? â??But I havenâ??t even told Michael yet.â? Use your girly charms and tell him then.â? He says. â??But not tonight. Tomorrow is better.â? â??I know the exact place where.â? â??Where?â? â??Out on the glider and railing. He canâ??t tell me no then.â? â??Well do it!â? he smiles and kisses me good night. â??Oh, Lyric. I know I was late, but you and your friendâ?¦â? â??He had a family issue, so we had to call it quits for tonight, but we might talk on the phone. I got to talk to him earlier.â? When I come downstairs to watch TV, Michael keeps looking at me warily. â??WHAT?!â? He tickles my feet. â??What?â? I ask again. â??Nothing. I just like to see you smile.â? I shake my head. â??I do.â? and he isnâ??t smiling anymore, so I know heâ??s serious. â??Well I amâ?¦.I have M.J.â? â??Thatâ??s not what I mean.â? I look at my feet. â??Well good night.â? Iâ??m heading to my room when I finally hear him respond. â??â??Night.â? &*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&*&* LOONG :) But keep reading! Can you wait to see how Lyric & Michael break the ice to Katherine? I canâ??t, plus we need more Michael in the story right now. We gotta forget about the other cuties because itâ??s Michaelâ??s and Lyricâ??s life. The others are just a part of it :). â??Teenage Dreamâ? is a song by Katy Perry, but I was on YouTube and I saw this video â??Jade & Beck â?? Teenage Dreamâ? put in a boyâ??s perspective dealing with Jade and Beck from â??Victoriousâ?. This song foreshadows important eventsâ?¦.:) but by then you might forget. Thatâ??s why we have surprises! --Aariyan.
