Chapter Two

"Can you please come down here, Selena?" I hear my mother's voice from the bottom of the stairs.

"Coming!" I yell back as I swing my legs over to the side of the bed.

I was laying down with my phone in hand, hoping that I would get a call or a text from Nick; my current boyfriend. He was supposed to be getting back from his family vacation tonight and I was hoping he would call me.

I find my mother in the kitchen washing the dishes when I make it downstairs. The sound of my footsteps as I walk into the kitchen makes my mother look over her shoulder to see who it was.

"Help me with the dishes?" she asks.

"I did these last time." I whine. "Isn't it dad's turn anyways?"

"Yes, but I sent him to the store to pick up some things."

"You couldn't wait for him to get back for him to do the dishes?"

"You wash and I'll dry." she says as she dries her hand on a hand towel.

Instead of trying to argue with her to try and get out of washing the dishes, I give in. I push my sleeves up past my elbows -- so they wont get wet -- before I put my hands in the soapy water. I grab a plate and begin to wash it as my mom stands next to me and watches.

"Isn't Nick supposed to be back tonight from his vacation?" my mother asks as I hand her the first clean plate for her to dry.

"Yeah. I'm hoping he'll give me a call or at least a text. I haven't talked to him since he left because I didn't want to bother him." I reply.

"He may not get a hold of you tonight since he might be exhausted from his trip."

"Yeah..."

"Besides, it's almost eleven thirty. I'm sure he's probably sleeping right now. I'm sure he'll call you tomorrow." my mom says as I hand her the last plate.

"I hope." I reply as I dry my hands off. "I'm going to go back upstairs."

"He'll call sooner or later, honey." my mother says as I head back upstairs.

I walk back into my room and collapse back down on my bed. I stare up at my ceiling until I decided to grab my phone to see if Nick had texted me. I sit up in my bed as a huge smile forms on my face; he texted me.

"Hey babe, I'm finally home and I was wondering if you wanted to come over to my place for a little while?" Nick's message read.

"I'll be over in a couple of minutes." I reply back to his message.

I hurry into my bathroom to freshen myself up a little bit -- I didn't want him to see me in a mess since this will be the first time we've seen each other since he left for his vacation. I had already applied makeup earlier today, so I just made sure it was smeared across my face. I combed my hair and kept it as it was -- my natural hair.

I head downstairs and scurry around the house to find my mother. I found her sitting in our computer room -- or as she likes to call it, her office -- typing away on the computer.

"Nick texted me wondering if I could come over to his house. Can I go?" I asked, my words all bunched together and probably hard for my mom to comprehend what I had said.

"This late?" she asks as she looks at the watch on her wrist.

"Please?" I beg. "I haven't seen him in forever!"

"I don't want you out roaming about in the dark..."

"Mom, I'll be fine. His house is just a few blocks away."

She takes in a deep breath. "Don't stay over to long." she sighs.

"Thank you!" I thank her as I'm already heading towards the door.

The cool night air hits me as I walk outside. It's close to the end of November and it's starting to feel like winter. I had a jacket on, but the cold air still made me feel like I was walking outside in the middle of December.

Nick's house is only about three blocks away. It's not that far of a walk; at least for me it't not. Maybe I'm just used to always walking to his house. I usually walk down to his house every weekend to hangout with him unless he decides to come down to my house.

Tonight probably wasn't the best to be walking to his house considering the cold air that continues to engulf around my body. Nothing was going to stop me from seeing Nick though. I've missed him so much these past couple weeks that thought of just seeing him is making me smile like crazy.

Nick and I have been dating for a little over two years now. It's kind of odd how we ended up dating considering I'm not a very outgoing person like he is. We had met at a restaurant; me being with my friends and him being there with his. I had went to go use the restroom when Nick had bumped into me. I thought it was just going to be a simple "sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you" apology then carry on with our lives. But he -- for some reason -- had gained an interest in me. Long story short, we ended up spending the rest of the night together before he asked me out on a couple of dates which lead to us getting together.

I finally reach Nick's house and make my way around to the back of the house. I would prefer going and knocking on his front door, but Nick has always wanted me to come in towards the back. It's always unlock for me in case I would decide to make a surprise visit.

I lead myself into his house and make my way to his bedroom which was the first door that I would come across. His door is cracked open, far enough to where I can see inside.

A smile has now formed on my face. The excitement of finally seeing him was building up inside of me.

I go to push open the door when I hear laughter inside his room. There was more then just him in his room. I take peek inside his room and find him laying down on his bed. He had a huge smile on his face and started laughing again at whatever was seemed so amusing to him. I scan the other part of his room and I feel my heart drop.

A girl -- about my age -- was standing over by his dresser. I had never seen her before.

"When will your parents be home?" the girls asks him as she slowly makes her way over to the end of his bed.

"Couple hours. Why?" Nick replies.

The girl crawls up onto the bed before she climbs on top of him; her legs being on either side of him -- straddling him. She runs trails her fingers down the middle of his chest down to his stomach.

"We have time to have a little fun." she says, a smirk on her face.

"We just had fun back at the hotel." Nick laughs.

"And your point is?" she replies. I watch as her hands slides down to Nick's belt and undoes his belt, along with his jean's button and zipper.

"Fuck it," Nick says as he rolls the girl over to where he could be on top of her; his lips colliding against hers.

I slowly back away from his bedroom door with my hand covering my mouth, trying to contain in my loud sobs. I could feel the tears running down my face.

How could he do this to me? Why would he cheat on me for?

I run out of his house, slamming the door shut behind me.
