I'm sorry you guys. I'm a mess, which is why I made this chapter longer than my usual chapter lengths. Anyway enjoy.
I woke up feeling light, feathery kisses on the back of my neck, followed by low muttering and warm fingers caressing my bare thigh.
"Y/N. Get up for me love. I made you breakfast." Warm air tickled the back of my neck as I slowly woke from my sleep. I groaned and turned around and came face to face with a gorgeous woman with a warm smile on her face.
Startled and surprised, I jumped and ended up falling off the side of the bed.
Oh yeah. I was kidnapped.
"Are you ok love?" Kehlani asked me as she helped me up. I nodded and stretched while Kehlani stared at me longingly.
"Can you stop fucking staring? I like guys you know." I stated with a little bit of attitude.
Kehlani presses her lips together and closed her eyes as she took a deep breath.
"Just come downstairs when you're done." And with that, she walked out the room with a huff.
I should probably chill with the attitude.
But then again, I need to be home with mom.
God I wonder how she's doing knowing that I'm gone. What is she thinking?
I hope she's ok.
I washed my face but didn't brush my teeth since I don't have a toothbrush and made my way downstairs.
I saw Kehlani sitting on the couch, watching the news and sure enough I was on it. 20 YEAR OLD MISSING FROM HER FAMILY HOME. A picture of me and my mom on my 19th birthday was plastered on the screen. Then it switched to an interview of my mom outside the house with tears streaming down her face.
"How are you feeling right now ma'am?" The news reporter asked.
My mom looked up at him with anger and disgust.
My daughter, the only person left in my family is missing. My daughter. How do you think I'm feeling right now?" She hissed as more tears streamed down her face.
My heart ached at the sight of my mom in so much pain. She didn't deserve this. She's lost too much already.
"You can't keep me here. I have to see my mom. This is killing her." I tell Kehlani from behind her.
She turns around and stares at me for a while, as if she's studying me.
"And why would I do that?" She asked after a while as she turned back around in her seat.
Did she really just ask me that? For real?
"Because my mother is having an emotional breakdown." I walked in front of Kehlani and glared at her.
"I can't stay here! My mom...she doesn't deserve this, Kehlani." I said as the last part came out in a whisper.
"I need to go home." I said again, more sternly this time.
Kehlani sighed and stood up and placed her soft hand on my cheek, caressing it gently.
"You're not going home. Period. Come eat your breakfast." She said as she walked pass me. I turned around and stared at her with a shocked expression.
Seriously?
"That's some bull Lani!" I shout after her.
She turns around with a ambiguous smirk on her face.
"There's that name I love." She stated playfully.
At that point and time, I was done with her shit.
I walked over to her slapped her as hard as my body would allow it, making Kehlani stumble back a little.
"I said take me home."
Kehlani regained her balance and scrunched her nose a little bit.
That was kinda cute.
No it wasn't. You like guys Y/N.
Why am I acting like this?
I was knocked out of my thoughts when I was slammed against the wall. Kehlani's long fingers wrapped harshly around my neck.
"Do you want me to obliterate you?" She hissed.
Her pupils had dilated and she looked angrier than I've ever seen before. I immediately regretted putting my hands on her.
"Don't you ever in you life put your hands on me like that again. I will fucking kill you do you understand me?"
I nodded as tears started to fall down my face. I was terrified of how quick she changed from sweet and gentle to harsh and scary.
She let go of me and stormed off to another part of the house while I sank to the ground and cried.
I've learned my lesson that day.
2 weeks later
I was sitting on the couch while Kehlani was at the store getting me some clothes and all the other necessities I needed.
I got bored with what was on tv so I got up and decided to clean up a little, which wasn't much since Lani always kept the house tidy.
When I finished the very little amount of housework, I decided I'd roam around the house a little bit.
I found out she had a sauna, a movie theater, and a game room. There was an outdoor pool and a large indoor one, leaving only one room that I haven't seen, which was the one all the way at the end of the hall downstairs.
I opened the door and was shocked by what I saw.
There was a whole studio in her house. Plus extra room for a piano. I saw a couple items from native instruments and overall, was impressed with what I saw. Then I noticed something.
A book. On the piano.
I let my curiosity get the best of me as I walked over to the piano and picked up the leather cover book.
It was worn and I could tell she's been using it for years now.
I flipped a couple pages and stopped on a page with messy writing in it.
The title on the page was Gangsta and from looking at the lyrics, I could tell it was a fire song.
I need a gangsta,
To love me better,
Than all the others do,
To always forgive me,
Ride or die with me,
That's just what gangstas do,
I smiled at how creative she was as I flipped the page. I read through a couple more songs, smiling especially hard at her song Honey. Then I got to a song that really had me intrigued.
Footsteps.
And when I walked away,
I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me,
And when I walked away,
I left footsteps in the mud so you could follow me,
You're so bad at holding water, slips right through you're fingers,
We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the ground,
And then the path would wash away, wash away,
That spoke to me on a spiritual level.
She's talented and good with words. I'll give her that. But then I realized something.
She must be able to sing if she has all these songs and equipment.
I'd have to get her to let me hear her sometime soon.
Then I heard the door open.
"Y/N I'm home! Come look what I got you." I heard Kehlani shout from the front of the house.
"Shit." I muttered as I quickly closed the book and placed it back on the piano the way it was before hurrying out the room. I gently closed the door and walked down the hallway as casually as possible, meeting Kehlani who was setting stuff down on the couch.
"Hey. What were you doing? You didn't respond." She said with a small smile.
"Oh yeah sorry about that. I was just in the bathroom." I lied as I gave her a small smile back. She nodded and set down the rest of the bags.
"Well look what I got you." She beamed.
I walked closer to the couch and started going through the bags, revealing some cute outfits and shoes.
"Oh this is a cute outfit!" I gushed as I pulled out the clothes that Kehlani got for me.
"Thank you." I smiled at Kehlani as I put the outfit aside.
"You're welcome. And I had one more gift for you." She stated as she pulled out a Nike shoe box.
"Here. Open it." She smiled down at me.
I did as I was told and inside were a pair of acid wash Air Forces.
"Oh my god I've wanted these for so long!! I gawked at the beautiful masterpiece in front of me.
"Look in the right one." I heard Lani say from behind me.
"What?"
"The right shoe. Look inside of it." Kehlani said again.
I reached into the shoe and pulled out a brand new gold iPhone.
"Holy shit are you serious?" I was speechless as I just turned the phone over and over in my hand. I couldn't believe my eyes. This had to have been a dream.
"Yep that's the iPhone Xs Max."
I got up and pulled Lani into a tight embrace.
"Thank you so much." I said into her neck which ended up muffling my speech a little.
"You're welcome babygirl." I hope you like all of it.
"I love it. Thank you." I said again. Lani smiled and placed a soft kiss on my forehead.
"I also got you some pads and tampons since I didn't know which one you used as well as some body wash and the hair products you told me you use. I'll put them upstairs for you.
"Thanks again." I say as I begin to gather all of my clothes.
"Girl I get it. However, you can show me you're thankful another way." She said with a devilish smirk. My eyes widened and I shook my head.
"Oh god no." I stammered, causing her to frown.
"What? Lemme guess I'm too ugly huh?" She pouted.
I shook my head rapidly. "N-no. You're beautiful-gorgeous even. It's just I..I-"
"You what?" She tested with a smirk.
"I'm not gay." I muttered. Kehlani rolled her eyes and smiled widely.
"Hmm. How long have you been telling yourself that lie?" She asked as she started gathering all the bags that held my clothes.
"W-What do you mean?" I stammered as she stepped closer to me.
"I mean..if you're straight, would you react to me being this close to you like this?" She stepped dangerously close to me, causing my breath to hitch and my heart to start beating faster.
Why does she smell so good?
Kehlani noticed how uncomfortable I was and smiled.
"See? You aren't straight that's for sure."
And with that she walked away.
Later that night
I lay in the same bed I've been laying and sleeping in with the same gorgeous yet manipulative woman who kidnapped me. Yeah she did take me from my home but I found myself slowly growing more and more attached to her, which is what I wanted to avoid at all costs.
But something about her intrigued me. Like I wanted to get to know her. She's...interesting.
"Whatcha thinking bout babygirl?" Kehlani asked as she searched for something good to watch. I looked up at her. Her eyes were focused on the tv. Her lips pulled into a little pout as her nose scrunched a bit.
Freaking adorable.
I'm not gay.
Or am I? Kehlani seems to know a lot so maybe I should ask her.
"Um nothing super important. I've just got my mind on some stuff." I answered honestly.
Kehlani looked away from the tv and made eye contact with me, focusing on me and only me.
"What's on your pretty mind babygirl?"
God, she keeps calling me that, not knowing the effect it has on me.
Or maybe she does know and that's why she keeps calling me that.
She's teasing me. She's luring my whatever this is I'm feeling out. I'm exposing myself.
Or am I overthinking it?
"Um I just wanted to ask you something really quick?" I stammered. Man, she's so intimidating.
"Go ahead lovely." She replied never taking her eyes off of me.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes for a moment before continuing.
"Why-how are you so sure I'm gay?"
Yep I decided I'd cut it off right there.
How was this chapter? Thoughts? Whatever else you may be feeling?
Make sure you vote cause I put a lot of thought in these books even if it doesn't seem like it.
Anyway, I do apologize for the slow update on both of my books. February is an interesting month for me right now, both bad and good but I didn't wanna keep y'all waiting much longer. So yeah I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I'll try to update soon.
Thanks for reading.
