New Beginnings

Chapter 72

I woke up the next morning to an empty space beside me. As I at up , I remembered the events that took place the night before. I know I shouldn't have brought up anything about how I don't have a dad and stuff. I wasn't really thinking about the long term effect. I picked up my phone from the nightstand and as soon I was going to text him, he was calling me.

"Hello?", I answered.

"Hey.. I was just wondering if you were up. I took Cayson to daycare."

"Ohh.. Thank you."

"Im on my way back though. Do you want to go have brunch?"

"Brunch?", I said smiling.

"Breakfast and/ or lunch.. It's like 11:30. I don't know what it is anymore", he laughed.

"Yeah okay but I need to hurry up and get ready before you get here."

"Nah it's fine. I gotta come up again anyways so just take your time."

"Alright I will. Bye."

"Bye."

I put my phone back on the charger and got ready for the shower. All I had to was take off my bra and underwear. I hate sleeping with clothes on, especially when it's hot.

As soon as I stepped into the shower, I heard the bedroom door open.

"Ava!?", Chres called out. I don't know why he's yelling. Im sure he can hear the shower water running.

"Im in the shower!", I yelled back.

He opened the door only enough for his head to peek in,"Oh. Just wanted to make sure."

I squirted the soap on the towel and started rubbing it onto my body. "You had to look to make sure?"

"Yes babe I did. Now hurry up cause Im hungry." And with that he closed the door.

By the time I was out, he already had an outfit and some underwear and stuff on the bed.

"Really?", I said picking up the turquoise and purple lace thong. "Why?"

"Because that's my favorite. Now put your clothes on so we can go please."

"What if I don't like what you got out for me?"

He looked at me then rolled his eyes. "I remember you wearing this outfit before so you can't even say that."

"Whatever."

I threw on my clothes quickly and brushed my hair out. Im glad that my hair was curly so it won't look that bad when it dried out.

"Are you ready?", he asked.

"Yeah just a -", I was interrupted by my phone ringing. "Hello?"

"Ava?" It was my mom.

"Yeah, hey mom. Can I call you back when we get back?"

"No I need to talk to you now."

I scrunched my eyebrows,"okay what's up?"

"We just landed."

"Landed? What do you mean you just landed? You left?"

"Yes.. We had no choice. We needed to get out of Atlanta quick or things were going to get really bad."

"So you just up and leave out the middle of nowhere? Are you kidding me? You didn't say bye to me, Chres, or Cayson. Do you know how sad he's going to be to find out his fucking grandma left him?"

"Ava it's not my fault. Like I said we had no choice. There's too much going on with Cameron-"

"Cameron? This is all because of Cameron? You left for him?"
