Teenage Love Affair♥

♥Chapter: 14♥

I opened my eyes to find out it was the next morning, on a Sunday. I felt like I had a damn hangover last night. So many tears fell from my eyes, so much water overwhelmed me and I was in so much distraught. I still couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it at all. I still can't believe Tyrese would lock me out of my own place... I really couldn't. I mean like, who the hell did he think he was? Also, he left my poor baby Imani outside. I felt my world was collapsing when I panicked to find out nobody would open my door last night. I felt gravity closing in me, tearing me almost dead apart. But I when I found out my baby girl was safe and sound, I felt some stress go away. But I'm still depressed and I still don't know how I'm goin to pick myself up for school tomorrow.
As much as I cried, yelled, and pleaded with myself, Xavier was here for me. I never thought this boy would really pull over and let me stay here, but that was just the type of friend I needed. Xavier was here for me, and as for Tyrese... I don't know what to say about him. He broke my heart again. It's over and over and over he does this. It was a tedious pattern and I wanted to get the hell out of it. But not only until I talk some sense into that boy that I will decide what to do. Cause quite frankly, getting away from Tyrese was not easy. But I had to do it sooner or later.
"Good morning Xavier..." I said sadly as I wiped the sleep from my eyes. I then suddenly realized he wasn't on the bed. Where could he be?
"Xavier? Xavier!? XAVIER!" I panicked wondering where he was and quickly pulled the covers off of me, opening his bedroom door than saw him in the kitchen.
Damn, thank God. I thought Tyrese came here and killed him. I wouldn't allow that.
I paced myself over to the kitchen and what...the...what was this? I saw a big bag of diapers, two boxes of baby food, a gallon of milk and Imani placed at the kitchen table playing with that toy Xavier gave to her last week.
"Xavier!?" I said puzzled at all the new stuff. Were these things for Imani?
He then turned around surprised to see me.
"Ma, I'm so glad your awake. How are you?"
I then saw him making eggs, bacon, and pancakes all at once on the stove. Shit smelled good. I wanted some for myself, but I couldn't be greedy.
"Wh-wh-what the hell is all this stuff?"
"I hope you appreciate it. I went out early this morning, I realized since you couldn't open your door last night that I bought some food and milk for your baby, I also bought some food for you, which I am making now."
"What!?" I said shocked. Wait a minute... hold up... did this boy really did what I think he did!?
He went through all this trouble for me... just for Imani and me. I can't believe he would do such a nice thing like that... I didn't even know what to say back. If he didn't buy anything for Imani... she wouldn't even have anything to eat. This truly meant a lot to me, but I was still stunned.
"Xavier... I-I-I-... I can't believe... I can't believe you-you-you did-did this for me." I said feeling more tears come to my eyes. I began to become more sentimental for the past few days. The mean side of me was becoming less and less.
"Aww, please don't cry Camille. I did this for you. I know you need me, and I wanna help you out."
"Xavier... why you doin this?"
"I'm doin this cause I care ma. I ain't wanna see you getting hurt. I told you before ma. Your all I wanna take care of right now, and help you get through your problems. Now come eat. I'm just about finish."
"What about you? Aren't you goin to eat? And why are you in your football jersey?"
He soon took out a plate, napkins, and a glass cup for me placing them in front of me and started puttin the food on the plate.
"Nahh, I ate already. I made this for you because I'ma be goin to a football game in a few minutes."
"What? You can't leave me here by myself!"
"Camille... I know you need me but I have to go. It's one of the biggest games of the year, and I can't miss it."
"Well can't you bring me and Imani with you?" I said going up to Imani and started putting some of her brand new baby food on her mini plate.
"You can't. My dumbass coach won't allow it. Plus, I'ma be really busy playin and all. And I don't think you wanna meet my friends like you did last time. Remember the jerks?"
"Well... I ain't like them but I still won't mind going."
Xavier soon sighed. I didn't realize I was becoming a pain in the ass for him. Maybe I shouldn't have asked... shoot, I been havin it to good now, why do I gotta keep bein selfish and make him do everything for me? I'm a grown girl. I should've known betta than that.
"You know what, I'm sorry for askin."
"What you mean you sorry?" He said cleaning up the dishes.
"You did this all for me, and I'm the dumb bitch who ain't appreciating it."
"Camille! Don't you eva say that about your self ma. Don't call yourself a bitch."
"It's just that..." I soon started crying, damn... I never thought I would shed as many tears as a baby would in a week. But I sure did.
"Ty-Ty-Tyrese always... said *sniff* that about *sniff, sniff* about-about me..."
"Aww man... didn't I tell you to fuck that nigga? He ain't nuthin but a worthless cunt." Xavier said coming over to me giving me a warm hug.
And damn did he feel good as ever, and he looked especially cute in his jersey... I don't know why I thought of him like this suddenly, but I know I liked it.
"Xavier... pl-please, d-don't le-leave me."
"Camille... you don't even know how much I don't wanna leave you. I wanna be here with you. Badly. But I got my own shit to do. And coach won't give me the end of it if I bring you and Imani along."
"Well, what am I suppose to do while your gone?"
"Just watch TV, get as much sleep as possible, and relax... relax your mine ma. You got to. You've been through so much. It's the least you can do for now. Right sweetheart?"
Wait a minute... did he just call me a sweetheart? Nobody ever said that to me in my whole entire life... I loved it.
"Did... did you... just call me a... sweetheart?"
He laughed a little. "Yeah ma. Is there sumthin wrong with that?"
"No... I actually like it."
"Cause you are a sweetheart. Minus the time you accused me of kidnappin your daughter."
I blushed. I still never forgave myself for yellin at Xavier like that. I was a dumbass for doin that.
"Thanks Xavier, and I'll be fine. Thanks for doin all of this for me. I don't know how I would repay you back."
"Just seein you happy is all I need."
I blushed again... damn, he made me feel so good inside.
"Thanks again." I replied still holding onto his warm body.
He soon kissed me on the forehead lightly and pulled away softly from me.
"I gotta go ma. I can't be late. You be safe, and don't answer the door for ANY person. Especially that faggot of yours. Or I'll be right here and kill him..."
"I got it. Don't worry. I got this place on lock."
He soon opened his front door, "Oh and before I leave Camille... I just wanna say to you to please be careful. Whatever happens, I'm only a phone call away. My game is until 2:30 so it's gonna be a while till I get back. You good and shit?"
"Yeah, I'ma be iight. I hope you guys win."
He smiled. "That's why I'm a football playa ain't I?"
We both laughed.
"Go on boy. You gonna be late."
"Be safe." He said one more time and closed the door.
"Imani, why don't you eat your food baby girl?" I said goin over to her.
Her skin was lookin a lil pale, and I didn't really know why, but maybe she didn't sleep well enough. She usually loves eating her baby food with her cute fingers but she isn't even budging.
"Baby is everything okay?" I said caressing her cheeks.
She soon frowned and started crying. I wonder what was wrong with her.
"Oh Imani... what's wrong girl?" I said picking her up and rockin her in my arms for a bit.
"Mommy's here sweetheart. Please don't cry. Don't cry. Mommy loves you."
After 5 minutes of rockin and singing to her, she finally quieted down.
"Now you quiet down?" I said to her as I placed her back on the chair.
"Now eat sweetie. Mommy doesn't want her food to be cold so ima eat to."
As I looked at the freshly made breakfast Xavier put on the table, I felt like I was starting to be finally appreciated in this world.
I loved that he went through all this trouble to take care of me like this, and I didn't even know how to repay it all back for him. Unless I give him some money from my paycheck by next Friday. That will have to do.
"Damn this looks good." I said to myself, ready to dig in.
I soon sat down and looked at all the food. Damn, I didn't even know where to start.
"Pancakes, eggs or bacon?" I said. I was havin a little bit to much joy with all this food around me. I was just gonna have to have a lil of each on the first bite.
"Let's do this."
As soon as I was about to take a forkful of food, I heard Imani start coughin up a bit.
"Imani, are you okay baby girl?" I asked. I wasn't to worried, but it was a little bit abnormal for her.
Even though I knew she couldn't talk I could tell wether she is okay or not.
She stopped and I took a deep breath, calming myself down.
After a couple of seconds I was gonna take a bite again until I heard Imani start coughing up again.
"Imani!" I said quickly running over to her as she started crying loudly as ever.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!"
"Oh Imani! Relax! Relax! Lemme get you some tissues!" I said as I panicked. I quickly searched around the kitchen for something to wipe her eyes but I didn't find shit.
Suddenly I spotted Imani throwing up all over herself and on the kitchen table.
"IMANI!!!!!!" I yelled as I picked her up and tried patting her back. What was happening to her!!?
"STOP IMANI! STOP! YOUR SCARING ME!"
She then kept on throwing up and coughing up some more. WHAT THE HELL WAS GOIN ON!?
"Imani, you gonna be okay, you gonna be okay. Relax, relax."
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" She cried again almost blowing my hearing off.
"LAY DOWN IMANI! LAY DOWN! I'ma go look for some towels."
She than threw up again on herself on the couch.
SHIT SHIT SHIT, XAVIER IS GONNA KILL ME!
"IMANI, WHAT'S WRONG!!!?" I said falling to the floor next to her as I saw her cry and throw up some more.
"LISTEN TO ME, BABY, LISTEN! JUST STOP IT! JUST-JUST STOP IT!" I yelled as I took my shirt and tried cleaning up her with it.
Suddenly... I saw blood coming out her mouth...
I froze as I saw more and more of it starts to come out from her mouth as she threw up...
I felt my body begin to heat up, my heart beat accelerated faster than ever, and my eyes became full of water....
There was only one thing to do... and that's call the hospital. AND NOW!!!!!!
"IMANI!!!!" I yelled as I ran as fast as a cheetah to the nearest phone and started dialing 911 for the first time in my life.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! IMANI WOULD DIE IF I DIDN'T TAKE HER NOW, AND I WAS ONLY 17!!! SHE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE!
"911 speaking, what is the emergency?"
"MY BABY IS THROWING UP!!! I-I-I-I- I D-DON'T KNOW-WHA-WHAT TO-TO DO!!! HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELP ME! HELP ME! HELP ME!!!" I said as started bangin on the kitchen counter. My eyes were all blurry as waterfalls kept drippin from my eyes, all I heard was Imani sickness and each time I heard it, it killed me inside.
"Is there blood mam!?"
"YES THERE IS!!!!! SHE'S DYING AND SHE NEEDS HELP NOW!!!"
"An ambulance is on its way right now. Please stay put, give her lots of water, and do NOT panic. What is your name?"
"CA-CA-CAMILLE- EDWARDS!" I couldn't bare speak cause I saw was Imani crying loudly as ever, as her skin got more pale.
"We will be there in 5 minutes! Stay put!"
"IMANI!!!!! PLEASE STOP, STOP IMANI!! PLEASEEE!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I cried as I ran over to her hugging onto her body as she shaked.
As Imani cried and cried, I cried and cried...
But except for her, I felt like I was dying again.




The imagery of Imani throwing up blood, and crying her heart out, was sickening to me. Pure sickening. It was even more sickening to be in the hospital as I waited for the doctors to tell me what was wrong...
I felt almost emotionless... like all my emotions have run out from over using them to much...
I was in a disaster world.Everything and everyone I was around, I caused a disaster for...
It was like my life is meant to be this way... I started to feel like I can't take it anymore...
WHY WAS THIS ALWAYS HAPPENING TO ME!!!? What did I fuckin do to deserve some shit like this!?
THIS IS CRAZY! I just want my Imani back.
As I waited in the waiting room of the hospital, I saw dozens of people sitting around me crying, and wondering about there loved ones too.
Doctors coming in and out, in and out with injured people on hospital trolleys.
My heart always panicked as I wondered if that was Imani or not.
It was starting to become unbearable. WHERE WAS MY IMANI!?
"Ms. Camille Edwards?" A nurse said comin in to the waiting room.
"THAT'S ME, THAT'S ME!!!" I quickly ran up to her. Trying to wipe the tears coming from my puffy red eyes.
"WHERE'S MY IMANI!!?"
"Please come this way." She said.
I started following her on my way to Imani. I had so many questions, but not one of these doctors gave me answers... What the hell was wrong with this damn hospital? All I wanted to know was if Imani was goin to be okay or not.
"IS SHE OKAY!?"
"You will meet Dr. Richards as soon as we get to her room." The nurse said.
I felt my body began to shake as I wondered how Imani was.
Was she hooked up to dozens of wires!? Was she bleeding internally!? Was she crying her heart out!? OH PLEASE GOD, PLEASE!!! I just want her in my arms again.
As we reached the baby section of the hospital, I never heard of so many babies crying at the same time. It pained me in my heart. And I wondered which one was Imani.
"IS SHE IN HERE!? IS SHE IN HERE!!!? WHERE THE HELL IS SHE!!!" I yelled impatiently at the nurse.
"In this room..." She said.
But the room was quiet... wouldn't she be crying though?
"SHE'S NOT IN THERE!!! WHERE'S MY BABY!!?"
"Excuse me miss, but she is. She's right in there."
"IT'S QUIET IN THERE! DON'T BE FUCKIN WITH ME RIGHT NOW! WHERE THE HELL IS-"
"Excuse me. I'm Dr. Richards. You must be Camille Edwards." A man said tapping his finger lightly on my shoulder.
I quickly turned around to see a tall doctor dressed in a white doctor suit. He's Caucasian with a mini mustache, black hair and looked around his mid 30's.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!?" I said annoyed. I just wanted somebody to tell me where my daughter is! Damn!
"I'm Dr. Richards. The doctor for Imani Edwards. Correct?"
"WHERE IS SHE DOCTOR!!!? PLEASE TELL ME!?" I said as tears went down my cheeks.
"I'm afraid... I got some bad news."
This was it...
This was finally it.
He was goin to tell me Imani was dead.
I JUST KNOW IT!!
I JUST KNOW IT!!!!! IMANI IS DEAD, DEAD DEAD!
And I was gonna just have to kill myself if I weren't to have her in my life.
"SHE'S DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE'S DEAD, SHE'S DEAD!! SHE'S GONE!! GONE!!" I said crying my heart out on the doctor.
"NO, NO NO!! Not at all!"
Suddenly, I felt my heart get relived. HE SAID WHAT!?
"SHE'S ALIVE!!?"
"Yes, she is alive... but... please enter the door and see for yourself."
I quickly pushed the nurse out of my way and entered the small hospital room.
I then saw Imani lying down peacefully with some wires hooked up to her body.
"IMANI!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled as I ran to her and gave her a hug.
"MAM! MAM! Please, she's very fragile. Let go."
"STAY AWAY!! SHE'S MY BABY! MY BABY!!!!!!!!"
"MAM, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND SHE'S-"
"I DON'T GIVE A DAMN! LEAVE ME BE WITH HER!!!"
"He's tryin to tell you that your daughter is in a coma!" The nurse said.
Suddenly, I felt my soul practically leave my body...
SHE'S IN A WHAT!?
I felt my mouth and eyes become even weaker and weaker...
SHE'S IN A WHAT!?
My legs started trembling... my head started spinning, and I almost felt like I was going to faint.
SHE'S IN A WHAT!?
"Wha-wha-what... you-you-you mean... she's-she's-she's..."
"I'm very sorry."
"YOU SAID SHE WASN'T DEAD!!!!!!!!"
"Being in a coma doesn't mean she's dead mam. She just can't function as a normal human being at the moment. We do not know when she will be... functioning again."
"What...what!?"
"Were truly sorry honey. Were very sorry." The nurse said.
Suddenly, I saw Xavier enter the room and he was just the person I needed.
Imani is in a coma... and we don't even know when she'll be back to normal.
"CAMILLE!!!! I CAME AS FAST AS I COULD!" He said running towards me.
"OH XAVIER!!!!!!!!!!" I cried loudly as I pulled onto his jersey, crying and crying and crying and crying.
Oh God, please tell me this isn't what it really is.
"WHAT'S GOIN ON HERE!?" Xavier yelled.
"It appears to seem that your daughter is in a coma..."
"MY WHAT!?" Xavier yelled.
"Oh boy..." The doctor said looking at the nurse. "We got a problem here. Please follow us this way."
"Camille... ma. Come, come." Xavier said dragging my aching body out of the room.
"I WANT IMANI!!!!!!!!!!!! IMANI!!!!!!!!!! IMANI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I cried trying to put all my strength to stay in the room, but this boy wouldn't let me!
"Camille, we gotta go. Doctors want us."
"I AIN'T LEAVIN!!" I said trying to pull away from him, but he just picked me up.
"CAMILLE RELAX! PLEASE RELAX!"  Xavier said leaving the room as I kicked and screamed like a baby myself. I didn't want to leave. I WANTED MY FUCKIN DAUGHTER!!
"NOOO!!! NOOO!!!!!!!!!!" I cried but I was defeated we was out of the room and we soon entered a private room with the doctor and a couple of nurses.
"C'mon ma. Stop crying, stop crying!" Xavier said wrapping his arms around me, trying to make me stop crying. I couldn't though. I was in hurt to know I might not have Imani anymore.
"Do you guys need some time alone?" The doctor said.
"Camille.... Camille... Camille... remember how I told you to relax? Just relax baby. Relax... please, I'm here now."
After a couple of minutes... I had a throbbing headache... but my crying soon worned down a bit and I wiped my eyes.
"You okay ma?" Xavier said wiping my eyes for me.
"I'm-I'm... I'm okay..." I said sniffing up my runny nose.
"Were goin to ask you some questions. If that's okay with you Ms. Edwards."
I nodded my head up and down and laid my head on Xavier's shoulder as he held my hands.
"Now... do you know the father of Imani?" The doctor said looking straight into my red eyes.
The mentioning of Tyrese soon made a couple of tears fall from my face again... He was such an evil bastard.
"He's.... he's.... Ty-Ty-Ty-"
"Tyrese Jackson. Right?" Xavier said finishing up for me.
I just nodded my head as tears overtook my voice.
"Okay... and who may you be?" The doctor asked.
"I'm her close friend. Xavier Johnson."
"How do you know Ms. Edwards?"
"We met at school."
"Where is your parent's honey?" One of the nurses asked me.
"Th-th-there-there... there-"
"She doesn't have parents." Xavier said finishing up for me.
"Whose her guardian?" The doctor asked.
"I am. With my parent's permission." Xavier said.
I was shocked. What the hell he just said?
"Xavier what-"
"Sssh." He said in my ear.
Did he just say he's my guardian?
"Okay... we gonna need to call your parents."
"Oh, there not here now. There away."
"Well, is there anyway we can contact them?"
"They should be back by next week. So you can talk to them until then."
"Are you sure it's okay for you to take care of her while your parents are gone?"
"Yes, they would do anything for her and I would do anything for Camille too."
I soon did a mini smile. Even though I was still sad about what happen to my poor Imani, that definitely cheered me up a bit.
"How old are you sir?"
"I'm 18."
"Great, as long as your 18 and older you are considered an adult. This will make it easier for us." The nurse said.
"Now... Camille, are you still with Tyrese Jackson?"
That question hit me hard... what was I goin to say?! I told them yes, Xavier would get mad, if I told them no, It wouldn't be telling the truth, cause I haven't broke up with him officially yet.
"Well.... I-I-I-I... well... I-"
"No they ain't." Xavier said.
I couldn't bear to answer... I was still depressed from the hurt I got from Imani... she was more important now than my relationship status with Tyrese. I just wanted to do whatever it takes to get my girl alive.
"Okay. Have you ever been more than a friend to each other?" The doctor asked.
"No... not yet." Xavier said.
WHAT!? What did he just say!?
"Xavier I-"
"Ssh..." He said once again.
Even though I was very sad, I would unleash my anger on this boy if he told me to 'ssh' again.
"Okay... and we have just one more question... Were goin to need a D.N.A sample of Tyrese Jackson..."
"WHAT!!!!?" Me and Xavier said at the same time.
"Is... that a problem?"
"YES IT IS A PROBLEM!" I said getting up. HOW THE HELL WAS I GONNA DO THAT!?
"Doctors she cant bring that nigga up here!" Xavier said, using his profound language to the doctors who didn't understand what he meant.
"WHAT HE MEANT WAS I CAN'T BRING HIM UP HERE!"
"Why is that?" The doctor asked.
"I just can't okay!?"
"Is there a real reason why she gotta bring that damn ass boy up here!?" Xavier said getting mad.
"Well... it would help us have proof of him being the father of Imani. And also it would help us with further results..."
"So you mean to tell me... if I don't get Tyrese here... the results for my daughter won't come as soon enough?"
"I'm afraid so..."
"No... no... This-this-this... this can't be happening to me. WHYYY!!?" I soon then started crying again.
"Aww Camille ma. Stop cryin please." Xavier said caressing my face."
"Listen... I understand this is a very hard day for you two. I suggest you guys make it on your way home."
"WHAT ABOUT MY IMANI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? I WANT HER NOW!! NOW!!"
I didn't wanna leave the hospital without my Imani... I wanted her to be functioning again. I DON'T WANT HER TO BE INA HOSPITAL!
"Can you guys give us a minute?" Xavier said.
"Sure." The doctor replied.
Soon Xavier pulled me over to the corner and started whispering to me.
"Camille... I understand that you want Imani back... but you gotta let the doctors do what they gotta do ma."
"NO. YOU don't understand Xavier... I want my daughter back, I want her back!!"
"Listen, I promise to drive you over to the hospital to visit your daughter again tomorrow after school. I promise."
"But Xavier... I-I-I-... I don't wanna see Imani hurt, and hooked up in-in-in... the room. All by-by her-herself. I want her with me!"
"Well if you want her to be better, you gotta let the doctors take care of her."
"How about if they don't!?"
"I know they will ma. I can tell they will."
"How can you tell?"
"Because... I believe they will. And you got to believe in it yourself to ma."
"Are-are... are you sure?"
He soon kissed my cheek. "I'm positive. Its best to let Imani stay here to get better, while you have me. And as long as you have me, everything will be better eventually.
Tears fell from my eyes as I thought about what Xavier said.
Imani was the world to me... I never left her in a hospital without me being there... This was goin to be a big ass change for me. But if I wanted Imani to be better... I was goin to have to be strong for a change. And pray to God everything will be okay.
I nodded my head up and down to Xavier and then we soon hugged tightly.
"Is everything okay there?" The doctor asked.
"Yes doctor. We decided that it's best for Imani to stay here."
"Okay, very well than. We will do our best capability to take care of Imani for you."
"Th-th-thank you doc-doctor." I said still trying to manage my tears.
"Anytime."
"Please, follow me this way for co-payment." The nurse said.
After Xavier helped pay for me, we exited the cold hospital and walked hand in hand to his car in the parking lot.
"How you catchin up?" Xavier said
"I don't know how I'ma sleep tonight..."
"Damn... I'm sorry for what happen Camille. She just started throwing up?"
"Yes! I don't know how..."
"I hope it wasn't the food I bought for her, cause I would never forgive myself for hurting your daughter. I'm really sorry..."
"Nahh... U didn't do shit Xavier. She didn't even bother to eat it!"
"Wow... well I wonder how she just started throwing up and shit. U sure she didn't eat anything she wasn't suppose to?"
"I'm sure..." I said almost starting to cry again.
"Damn..." Xavier said starting his car as we got in.
I started crying softly with my head facing the window.
"Camille... look at me."
"No... I'm a crybaby. Can't you see that?"
"What? Camille... u ain't no crybaby. Please don't say that about yourself."
"LOOK AT ME!" I said turning around to him, showing my red, puffy eyes, the wrinkles under them and my messy hair.
I was fucked up. I looked like a damn ass monster.
"I LOOK HIDEOUS OKAY!?" I said crying again. I would understand if Xavier agrees with me, cause its true.
"Camille... I'm disappointed."
"I know you are! You can't believe how ugly I became right!?"
"No... I'm disappointed in you because of what you call yourself."
I soon looked up back at him. What the heck did he mean?
"What?"
"Look Camille... your not ugly. Far from it. As a matter of fact, you're the most prettiest girl I know."
"What?" I said softly. This was truly touching my heart.
"I mean it Camille... and I wouldn't have come here and miss my football game or you if I didn't care about you or Imani."
"Xavier, I'm really sorry."
"I don't care Camille. I love football, but... but... you know what? Never mind."
"No tell me!"
"I really don't want to..."
I could tell Xavier was embarrassed to say what he wanted to say to me, but I really wanted to know what the hell it was.
"Xavier tell me!"
"Aww c'mon ma. Don't make me do this." He said stopping at a red light.
"Please... Don't keep any damn secret from me Xavier. Please." I looked at him pleadingly in his eyes.
He soon pulled over to the curb and stopped his car.
"Camille... when I first saw you... when I first saw you crying in the building... it hurt me to see such a fine girl like you in distress. And when I first saw you get abused by that punk ass nigga of yours, I knew I was the man to show you how a REAL man treats his lady. And I ain't lyin ma. I was feelin you a lot."
"Wh-wh-what, are-are you serious?"
"Yeah... I'm not lying."
"But you was sayin something before. You was like 'I love football but... but what Xavier? Tell me?"
"I don't think you wanna hear it."
I soon took his hand and wrapped it around mine. I was determined to let this boy tell me the truth. "Please tell me."
"Well Camille..." He took a deep breath and looked at me with his hazel eyes.
"I love football, but... I... I... I love you."
I was totally speechless. XAVIER LOVES ME!? HE LOVES ME!!? HE LOVES ME!? Omg, omg! Is this a dream, cause I can't believe this at all!
"See? I knew I shouldn't have said it." Xavier said feelin embarrassed as ever. He turned his car back on and continued driving off.
This was unbelievable.
I knew Xavier cared about me and all... but seriously, he hit me hard with those three words. I Love You.
It was so sweet of him to say, and I knew exactly what to do.
"Pull over." I said.
"What?"
"Pull over please."
"What's wrong Camille?"
"I just wanna do something with your full attention."
He sighed and pulled over, stopping his car again.
"Wassup?"
"Thank you Xavier."
"For what?"
"For everything, your all that I need... please don't ever leave me."
"Camille..." He said grabbing my hand. "Why would I ever leave you? I wanna be there for you, forever."
"Xavier... you really deserve this."
"Deserve what?"
I soon pulled him over gently to me and kissed him deeply on the lips for one full minute. And during that kiss, I released all my passion and love and dedication on to him for all the love and care he gave to me. He wasn't like Tyrese, definitely far from it. He was better than that. He was the guy of my dreams.
"Wow Camille... you really think I deserve that?"
"Of course. For bein the best I ever had so far."
He smiled at me. "Nah, you're the best I ever had Camille and I promise you, you will make it through the rain with me by your side."
"Thanks Xavier."
As we continued on our way to his crib, I knew that Xavier was goin to always be here for me, other than that stupid ass boy Tyrese.
Cause one thing I knew for sure was that...
Xavier was the guy I wanted.
He was the one for me.
And I was goin to make him mine.
Cupid has hit me with his arrow, and until then... it's time to break up with Tyrese and show him the real man I got.
