Forbidden Love

Chapter 18

Brooklyn's Pov
Mom had just left and I was tired as hell because this morning I was rudely interrupted from my sleep by Sasha this morning.

I walked to my room and set an alarm for 2:00. I jumped into my bed, closed my eyes and fell asleep.

"Bzzzz....Bzzzz....Bzzzz," My phone alram buzzed. I hit the dismissed button and groaned.

I picked up my phone and looked at the time. It was 4:39. Oh shit. l missed my "date" with Jeremih.

I unlocked my phone to see I had 7 missed calls from Jeremih. I got up out of my bed and called back immediately. It went straight to voicemail.

"Ding Dong," I heard the doorbell so I went to go answer it. I opened the door and standing on the other side was Jeremih. He was holding flowers.

My heart melted. I looked down at myself and my smile faded. I was so embarrassed.

I was in nothing but a tank top and underwear. I can tell my hair was a mess too.

"Come in," I said and opened the the door for him to come in. He handed the flowers to me.

"Aww. Thank you," I said as I smiled and took the flowers from him.

"They're really beautiful," I continued as I sat them down on the table. "Beautiful flowers for a beautiful girl," he said and I blushed.

He sat down on the couch. "I'm really sorry I didn't show up to the park. It's just I was tired so I took a nap and overslept," I said, "I'm really sorry," I continued.

"It's ok," he said. "How did you find out where I live?" I said.

"I saw you walking home this morning," He said, "So you followed me?" I asked. "No, you were walking in the same direction that I needed to go. I'm not a creepy stalker," he said and I chuckled a little.

I heard the door open and a few minutes later Sasha walked into the room.

"Brooks, who's this," she asked when she saw Jeremih. "A friend...His name is Jeremih," I replied.

"Hi Jeremih....My name is Sasha," She said putting her hand out for Jeremih to shake and he shook it.

"Can I talk to you privately," Sasha asked and I nodded. I got up and we went into another room.

"Isn't that the guy that was at the police station the other day in handcuffs?" She asked and I nodded.

"Why is he here?" she asked, "Because I invited him," I replied.

"Isn't he supposed to be in jail?" Sasha asked, "Yeah but turns out aunt Kelly was his probation officer and I convinced her not to send him back," I replied.

"Mom's gonna kill you if she finds out," she said, "She's not gonnna find out," I said, "So please don't tell her anything," I pleaded.

"Oh no, I'm not gonna get invovled," she said, "This is your problem," She continued and walked away.

I walked back into the room and sat back down on the couch.

"What were y'all talking about?" Jeremih asked, "You," I replied.

"What did you say?" "She asked why you were here and I told her why. Then she said that my mom is gonna kill me if she finds out about us and I said that I didn't care," I replied.

"Us? So we're a thing?" He asked, "We are if you want us too," I said scotting closer to him.

"Damn you fast as hell," Sasha said coming into the room. "Where you going," I asked, "To get something to eat. Please don't loose your virginity while I'm gone," She said.

"Ha ha very funny," I said sarcastically. Sasha then left.

"Anyway, back to where we left-," I said but was interuppted by the door opening and closing.

Corey and mom walked into the room. Mom didn't look too happy when she saw Jeremih.

Corey ran into his room and it was just me, Jeremih, and mom.

"What is he doing here?" mom asked, "I invited him," I replied.

"I'll leave," Jeremih said, "No stay...Mother, why can't he stay?" I asked, "Because I said he can't," Mom replied.

"And if he doesn't, I'll arrest him for trespassing," Mom said. "You can't do that," I said, "Try me," She said as she pulled out a pair of handcuffs.

Jeremih got up and left. "I can't believe you just did that," I said to mom and walked out of the room.
