Tough Love Part 99; Part 2
I was so anxious to post the last part so I forgot to put my name! :D, but itâ??s Aariyan. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 99; Part 2 Change of Plans Clarence stood there with his arms out as if I really wanted to hug him. But I did to get it over with. And once I hug him, I have to hug her. Once they help us with our bags, we all flop on the couch. â??Sooo, catch us up on what weâ??ve missed. Iâ??ve barely spoken to my child since she left six days ago. The last view youâ??ve seen of us were when we were waving on that porch.â? She points towards it. I didnâ??t want to start, so Michael started it. He was careful to leave out certain stuff of course. â??Yeah, what about her leg?â? â??Well Dr. Newman said I improved, so he cleared me. Still got my crutches.â? I glance at him. â??Are you sure this doctor knows what heâ??s doing? Maybe weâ??ll need to take you to the doctor.â? â??No. Iâ??m fine with this.â? He looks at me then says, â??Well okay.â? â??Are we still going to Disneyland?â? I aggrievedly asks Clarence while he was in the kitchen. Angela walks in the room as well. â??Well yâ??all got here about 9 A.M. We started to, but I mean Lyric, too many people are out there today, celebrating New Yearâ??s Eve. Maybe we can do something here.â? I shook my head. â??DISNEYLAND?!â? Michael walks in the room. â??Yeah. We WERE going to take you. That was my other surprise for you.â? â??Why arenâ??t we going?â? Michael looks at them. â??Itâ??s really crowded Michael. Yâ??know how it is. So we can do it another time before I leave.â? â??Yeah, when ARE you going to leave?â? She looks at me, â??In a few days.â? Then she walks off. When Michael walks back in his â??roomâ? upstairs, I walk in there behind him, and wrap my arms around his waist. â??Well Iâ??m sorry about thatâ??â? â??You need to stop. Hawaii is OVER with.â? â??Michaelâ??â? â??We canâ??t do this again. We can NEVER kiss each other again. I feel like shit doing that to you.â? he says through his teeth and walks around me out the door. Then he comes back and says, â??I donâ??t even want you. Youâ??re NOT for me. Stay in your lane and be with Randy.â? I suck in my breathâ??not believing what just happened. Itâ??s after one. And when I realized we REALLY werenâ??t going to be doing anything today, I started calling aroundâ??trying to find something to do. The last time I remember talking to Patricia, things didnâ??t go so well. I hadnâ??t talked to Sherry, even though I called her. Either way though, Patricia answered. She said that sheâ??d be spending New Yearâ??s Eve with her family. The same for Danielle. And they told me Sherry wasnâ??t even in the state. And I sure as HELL didnâ??t give two cents about what M.J. would be doing. So even though I didnâ??t choose this, I called up my guy friends to see what they were going to do. â??Hey Donovan. Got plans for New Yearâ??s Eve tonight.â? â??Yeah Lyric, Iâ??m about to fly out to Canada.â? â??CANADA?! What, why?!â? â??To celebrate the holidays with my family.â? â??But Donovan I really need something to do. Why didnâ??t you tell me you were going to Canada?â? â??Well I didnâ??t know you were flying back Lyric. You didnâ??t tell me.â? â??How was I suppose to know you were flying to another country?!â? â??If you want to fly to another country, feel free to, but I doubt youâ??d want to pack your bags again.â? â??Iâ??m not flying to Canada Donovan.â? â??Then Iâ??ll see you when I get back? Jerome is going to be writing music or something. I think Austin will spend it with Patricia, or with his family. Iâ??m not sure.â? â??â?¦What about Nick?â? â??Oh I donâ??t know.â? â??Okay.â? â??Still havenâ??t found out what you are going to do to celebrate.â? I sigh. â??Everybody got plans BUT me.â? I tell Clarence. â??Well you got us.â? â??I donâ??t want to spend it here.â? â??Why not?â? â??â??Cause.â? â??â??Cause I donâ??t want to.â? I was walking away when he says, â??Listen here, you not going to come back with that damn attitude of yours. Now if you want plans so bad, then you go make â??em, but donâ??t get pissed off at me. And Yaya called by the way. You need to call her or sheâ??s going to keep calling back.â? I only mentioned to Michael that Clarence has one sister, which was the older-younger sister to him. The one heâ??s talking about is the youngest, the baby. Yaya is a bit younger than Dad. â??Hello?â? â??Lyriicc. I HOPE thatâ??s you girl! WHAT have you been up to? I havenâ??t spoken to you in forever!â? â??I havenâ??t seen you in a while.â? â??I still live in Oakland. Iâ??m still â??fighting the systemâ??.â? There you have it: thereâ??s one of the biggest difference. While Clarence is the Chief of Encino, his sister is and might still be a member of the Black Panthers. It seems like they grew up on two different sides of the track, but no, they lived in the firm but loving home of my granddad and grandma. â??Well donâ??t fight too hard Yaya.â? â??Iâ??m not going to. Iâ??ve grown up some. But donâ??t tell your father that. I donâ??t want him to think Iâ??m giving up.â? I giggle. â??Okay Yaya.â? She could always get me out of a serious mode and detox me from being gloomy. We talked about an hour, just catching up on stuff. And when she talked about New Yearâ??s Eve plans, I told her I had no idea. â??You donâ??t have plans?â? â??No.â? Angela could barely get the words out of her mouth before I said that. â??You know I was just kidding you earlier? It was a bet from one of the brothers. They told me to make you mad.â? â??Why?â? I put my hands on my hips. â??Just to see how long youâ??d be mad.â? â??Oh thatâ??s bullâ??â? â??Watch your mouth.â? â??Oh shut up Michael! Then since weâ??re â??friendsâ?? again, letâ??s go somewhere tonight.â? â??Canâ??t.â? â??Why not?â? By now, Iâ??ve followed him to the kitchen. â??Because thereâ??s this family meeting at my house, and I need to go to it.â? â??What are yâ??all going to discuss?â? â??BUSINESS.â? Because he said it that way, I know I couldnâ??t really ask anything else. â??Nothing you canâ??t tell me?â? â??No.â? So itâ??s official. Iâ??m going to be spending the beginning part of 1979 alone. Great. But that possibility was gladly shattered when I called Patricia back, and she told me that Nick was babysitting his cousin as his cousinsâ??s apartment, so I assumed the cousin was the little baby I saw at the Christmas party. I got her name, and looked them up in the phonebook. When I called, though, I didnâ??t get an answer, and I didnâ??t want to leave a voice message (just in case they were really there). So I called a few minutes later, but still no answer. Clarence and I got in another debate about me not wanting to be sheltered in the house. â??Well you TELL me not to enclose myself in the house, and if I keep it that way then Iâ??ll be STUPID to the world!â? â??I never said â??STUPIDâ??!â? â??But thatâ??s what you meant.â? â??You know what, GO where you want. DO what you want. I donâ??t CARE if you stay out all night. I just donâ??t care.â? I clench my jaw and swallow my anger. Storming upstairs, basically stomping on the stairs, it takes my ALL NOT to slam the door. After bathing in a bathroom that wasnâ??t even mine anymoreâ??Angela â??progressedâ? itâ??Iâ??m change into leather pants, my silver halter top (which I never wear), and some clawsâ??my high heels with a thick, long heel. Then I had an arm ring on. I looked like a hooker. I KNEW I looked like a hooker. But no cares about me. No one loves me. I was thinking this as my legs dangled out my window because I was sitting on the window sill. It was 9 P.M. and I didnâ??t know what I was going to do. I felt like falling, head-first. Then Clarence words echoed in my head: â??You know what, GO where you want. DO what you want. I donâ??t CARE if you stay out all night. I just donâ??t care.â? Damn. I guess he donâ??t care anymore. For real. When has he told me to stay out all night?? I put my trench coat over my outfit. I already had Nickâ??s cousin address and phone number written down. â??Iâ??m leaving.â? â??Okay.â? And UNBELIEVABLY, Clarence allows me to walk behind the couch, out the door, without him stopping me. Angela was in the shower so she didnâ??t stop me. I take a deep breath once I close the door behind me and wrap my coat closer to my frame. I hurriedly get to the nearest bus stop, and take it. The whole time Iâ??m on the bus, Iâ??m looking out the window, not believing what I was doing. Not even believing where I was GOING! I did my best to picture Nickâ??s reaction when he saw me on his doorstep. I was AT LEAST hoping he, and ONLY he would be at his cousinsâ??s place. It was on the other side of town. But when I finally got there, my heart was beating the hell out of me. And things didnâ??t feel better as I walked towards their door and knocked on it. I knocked once. Didnâ??t get an answer. Then I saw there was a doorbell, I pressed it twice. I was about to knock again when the door opens. I was face-to-face with Nick. When I removed my trench coat a little, his eyes got big and his mouth parted a little. â??Lyric whatâ??s going on?â? â??I see you donâ??t have plans tonight on New Yearâ??s Eve either.â? â??Iâ??m watching my cousin tonight.â? He lightly grabs my wrist and shows me his baby cousin crawling on the floor. â??Whyâ??s he still up?â? â??He took a nap around six and wonâ??t go back to sleep. Hey, my cousin says he likes to stay up.â? Nick smiles for the first time. â??Can I stay and help you watch him?â? â??â?¦Sure.â? Nick picks him and hands him to me. â??Look Tobey, let her hold you. Let my friend hold you.â? Once Tobey is in my arms, Nick says, â??His whole name is Tobias. Like in the Bible.â? â??I know,â? I smile. â??Hey Baby Tobey, remember me? Remember me from that party your cousin was at?â? I sit on the couch, and Nick sits in the single sofa as he watched us. â??Is he hungry? Has he been changed?â? Nick nods his head and bites his lip. â??I changed him half an hour ago, so I fed him an hour ago.â? I start to giggle. â??What?â? â??Youâ??re doing it again. I almost forgot.â? â??About what?â? â??When you were saying â??halfâ??, you said it so British like.â? â??Well I AM British Lyric. Thatâ??s how my mum speaks at home Lyric, so this is how I grew up and spoke. I just interchanger it at my advantage.â? â??I know that, Nick. I just think itâ??s so cute sometimes.â? He smiles then. â??Oh, thank you.â? â??Youâ??re welcome.â? I ended up feeding Baby Tobey again before he went to sleep. â??Guess heâ??ll need changing when he gets up.â? I tell Nick as he leads me to Tobeyâ??s crib. â??He is. Heâ??ll probably poop his pampers. But ssh, come on. We donâ??t want to miss the countdown in New York.â? â??Nick, we still got a little time.â? I sit on the sofa next to him. This time, my head is leaning against my right fist. â??Want something to eat or drink?â? â??Um, no.â? â??Okay. Well what do you want to do?â? I lean in, even pressing some of my weight on his thigh. I get a-hold of his face and start kissing him. Donâ??t worry; I scrubbed my mouth a lot. And to balance that toothpaste/mouthwash taste out, I drunk a little Sprite. â??Do you know what youâ??re doing Lyric? You look sexy to me, and I can do a lot more compared to what I did in that closet that time.â? â??Just kiss me.â? I tell him as we were leaning in. â??Whoa baby, whatâ??s making you do this?â? He leaned in again but I stopped. â??â??Babyâ??? Iâ??m your baby?â? â??Well youâ??re delicate like one.â? Then when he tried to kiss me again, I move my face. â??Iâ??m not delicate like one.â? â??I know you can be.â? Nick rolls me over, and starts kissing my neck. â??Uhhâ?¦â? I whispered. â??Like that?â? My breathing got a little heavy. Nick stops and looks in my eyes. â??Lyric, did you like that?â? â??A little too much,â? I whispered. I gently pushed him off me and got up. â??Is there a balcony or something I can look over?â? â??Why?â? I sniffle, â??I havenâ??t been having a good day today. And I really need some fresh air, and look up at the stars.â? Nick looks around. â??Thereâ??s one in my cousinsâ??s room.â? â??Oh no, I donâ??t want to cross that line.â? â??Oh you already did when you asked me about it. Come on so you can get some air.â? Nick takes my hand and leads me to their balcony. He stands beside me and begins picking his nails. â??What made you come here?â? he says quietly. â??I already told you why Iâ??m here Nick.â? â??NO. I donâ??t mean THAT, I mean WHY you would take a bold risk, come to my cousinâ??s place, and find me. What were you looking for? Me? Trouble?â? â??Look if youâ??re going to crucify me, then I can leave.â? â??No, I donâ??t mean for you to leave,â? Nick holds my waist and faces me. â??I just wanted to know.â? I roll my eyes and look up at him. â??I had nowhere else to go.â? I was about to cry a little, I could feel my cheeks warming up, so I began to hug him. â??No, what do you mean,â? he holds my arms. I just shake my head. â??Noo..no, youâ??re going to have to tell meâ?¦or, or youâ??re going to have to leave.â? â??Youâ??ll make me LEAVE Nick?â? â??I donâ??t have any choice. You canâ??t walk around being sad and not telling me whatâ??s going on. Youâ??ll NEVER solve your problems if you never talk to me,â? he gestures towards himself, â??or Michael, or even your father Lyric.â? â??Donâ??t even MENTION Michael.â? The last time I saw him, he was heading out that door to go to that â??family meetingâ? which was probably about me. â??What?â? This time I let a tear roll down and Nick wiped it with his thumb. â??My dad doesnâ??t care about me. He told me I could stay out, do whatever I want.â? â??Then you need to go back to him. He, he might be looking for you!â? â??No!â? My shout surprised Nick. â??No,â? I whisper this time. Then I reach up to him and kiss him so we could top talking about it. He pulls away, surprised that I did that. â??What?â? I lightly giggle. I wrap his arms around my waist, and we lean on the rail together. I nuzzle against his flannel shirt, which was unbuttoned some. I closed my eyes, enjoying the closeness Nick and I was experiencing. He was just giving me this peace of mind that I really needed. â??Lyric, come on so we can watch the Ball Drop.â? â??Oh my Gosh, what time is it?!â? â??Itâ??s about time for it to start. Thatâ??s all I know.â? We grab hands again, and Nick turns to the channel. â??Know what youâ??re going to do in 1979?â? â??I donâ??t know,â? I tell him. â??Well I know what I want.â? Weâ??re sitting by each other as the Clock run out of time. â??10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEAR!â? I just stared at the T.V., shocked that the New Year had just come along. Suddenly I feel Nick grab me and kiss me very fervidly. â??HAPPY NEW YEARS BABY!!â? â??â?¦Happy New Years.â? I grab his face and kiss him again. I already took off my shoes, so I was able to put my feet on the couch and sit on his lap. â??Iâ??m nervous.â? â??Why?â? â??Because I donâ??t think my trousers are doing its job.â? â??What are you talking about?â? I whisper back. â??Youâ??re, youâ??re making it very HARD for me. If you donâ??t get up off my lap, Lyric I swear I wonâ??t be able to control myselfâ?¦â? I kiss him softly. â??Nick, Nick touch me.â? â??What?â? â??I say TOUCH me. Touch my body right here.â? I tentatively placed his shaking hand on my chest. â??No, keep it there.â? I lean towards his face again. We started biting each otherâ??s lip. â??Alaric, my cousin, heâ??s in the room next door.â? â??You donâ??t want to?â? â??Well, heâ??s in the roomâ?¦â? I got up. â??Letâ??s check on him and make sure heâ??s asleep.â? He still was. I sat on the couch and Nick joins me. I unbutton his shirt and was about to unfasten my top. â??Lyric STOP! Stop! I canâ??t do this with you. I might fantasize about it, but I just canâ??t. Not now.â? Suddenly I SLAP him. â??Well fine then. Iâ??ll go to the bathroom, straighten up, then Iâ??ll leave.â? I go to the bathroom by the kitchen, lock the door. â??What the hell am I doing?â? I ask myself. Then I look again in the mirror and see dark circles around my eyes. â??Iâ??m trying to be loved. THATâ??S why.â? I stared at myself in the mirror for the longest. Then I walked out the door and got my coat. As I was putting it on, I noticed something seriouslyâ?¦bizarre. â??What theâ??â? â??Itâ??s me Alaric.â? Nick was on the couchâ?¦naked with a maroon pillow on the front of him. â??Whatâ??s this for?â? â??You said you wanted to do it?â? â??Only if you want to.â? â??Câ??me here.â? But I stood stiff. â??Come over here.â? Nick put his hand out to me. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Vote up please! And thank you for the support on the other parts. I also got the outfit idea from Jenny in "Forrest Gump" when in one of the scenes, she's seen standing on a ledge as if she's about to jump but decides not to. -A.
