Chapter 29

"So what are you and lover boy doing for Valentine's day?" Penny asks with a smug look.

"I'm not sure, but I don't think it will be much because we still have school." I tell her picking out my outfit for today.

It's been a month since Penny and I have talked to Uncle Tom about our father.

"So what is that you wanted to tell us?" our mom asks once she sees our uncle.

"Um, well this is your son. I know you thought he died at birth, but he is very much alive." he tells her and I see a tear fall down her face as she looks at the boy.

"Why did they tell me he was dead?" she says through sobs.

"I got my brother into my madness, so he ended up dealing with the devil." he tells us not able to make eye contact.

"Tom, that makes no sense why they would do this to him." my mom says as Penny and I just sit there quietly.

"He took up for me, and tried to pay off the debt I had." he says then puts his hands over his face.

"Is he still alive?" I ask trying to process everything.

"I think he is he called me not too long ago telling me that it had to do with a guy named Chris." he tells us and we all give him a look of confusion.

"Explain please because right now it just feels like you're giving us bits and pieces of the story." Penny says more than asks.

"Okay your dad and was trying to get me out of the hole I digged myself in. Chris was my dealer, and him and your dad never got along. They have known each other since we were growing up. Long story short Chris felt like he needed to get revenge, and he ruined our lives. He made your mother think her son died after she gave birth, married his wife, and made you guys think he was dead." he explains to us making new tears fill my mother's eyes.

"Do you know where he is?" Penny and I ask at the same time.

"No, only Chris knows because he is the one who took him to God knows where." he tells us and something clicked for me.

"All we need to do is follow him then." I tell them.

"Are you thinking about lover boy?" Penny asks making me snap out of my thoughts.

"Nope, but what do you think I should get him?" I ask her curiously because I've never been in a serious relationship before.

"What does he like to do?" she asks and I rack my brain trying to remember.

"He likes to play video games, basketball, track and food." I say with a small laugh as I remember when we were playing basketball together.

"Babe, stop cheating!" he yells making me laugh because I was just playing.

"I'm not cheating you're just being a sore loser." I tell him sticking out my tounge as he comes closer to me.

"I'm going to get you now." he says and I make a run for it.

"How about you buy him a video game, buy some food and do y'all thing." she says and I smile.

"Thanks for the great idea." I tell her as I get my clothes walking in the bathroom.

I have a black crop top with red hearts, black skinny jeans, and black wedges. I'm not one to dress up, but today is special.

I change into my outfit, and fix my hair. It was going everywhere, but it looked decent. I just slipped a headband over it, and walked out the bathroom.

"Woah, look at you!" Penny yells then whistles and I spin in a circle laughing.

"How do I look?" I ask her stopping so she can check me out.

"Gorgeous!" she yells taking her phone from her pocket.

"Let me pose." I tell her putting my hand on my hip standing to the side.

"Another one." she says snapping pictures of me smiling.

I do some the common poses, and a couple silly ones.

"Let me see." I say going over to her looking at the pictures she took and I actually look good.

"I didn't get the chance to tell you that I have been seeing someone." she says and I look at her waiting for more.

"Show me." I whine and she laughs scrolling through her pictures.

"We have been dating for a couple weeks his name is Jesus." she says stopping on a selfie of her and I'm guessing Jesus.

He has light tan skin, green eyes, medium length black hair and has a decent amount of muscles.

"Y'all look cute together." I say and she smiles.

"I didn't know if it was too soon for you to meet him." she says getting off her bed and going in her closest.

"If you like him then I'm sure I will too, but not like that." I tell her with a small laugh looking at my phone to see that J should be here in a few minutes.

"I'm going to hang out with him today, so maybe later you can along with lover boy." she says and I nod and walk to the living room to get a snack to tie me over until lunch.

"How do I look?" my sister asks coming into the living after a few minutes.

Her big brown curls were all over her head, and she had a pretty black dress on. It was loose, but it still showed her curves. She always looks gorgeous.

"Perfect." I say taking out my phone doing the same thing she did with me.

Once we were done taking pictures, and things there was a knock on the door. I go to answer the door excited to see James.

"Oh my llama." James mumbles when I open the door and he sees me.

I should be the one to say that because wow he was stunning. He has on black slacks, black dress shoes and a black long sleeved button up that has the three top buttons open. He also hand white roses in his hands.

"Good morning handsome." I say and he smiles.

"Hey beautiful." he says giving me a hug and giving me the flowers.

"Let me take a picture of you guys before you go." Penny says coming up behind me.

I go inside the house and grab my backpack then make my way outside.

"Ready?" Penny asks once I get outside standing by James.

He wraps his hands around my waist, and then says yes. Even though I'm wearing heels he still is taller than me. After she takes the picture he kisses me on the lips surprising me.

"Alright love birds get to school." she says and we say our goodbyes walking hand and hand down the steps.

"I got you something." James says once we get in his car.

"You didn't have to J." I tell him putting on my seat belt ready to go to school.

"I wanted to, so look in the glove compartment." he tells me and I do so finding a square box.

"J, what is it?" I ask feeling kind of bad because I haven't got him anything yet.

"Just open it babe." he says to me.

When I open it I see a necklace that had an ice cream charm.

"It's so pretty." I say smiling taking it out the box to put it on.

"Glad you like it." he says smiling as he finally puts the car in reverse so we can head to school.

"Thanks so much J." I say grabbing his hand that was just resting on the console.

"It's no problem babygirl." he laces our fingers together.

"So, after school I was wondering did you want to go out eat and maybe play some video games?" I ask him and he smiles.

"Sounds good, but I'm not letting you pay." he says and I frown.

"Come on J," I say looking at him as he was focused on the road.

"No ma'am." he says as we near the school.

"Whatever." I say letting go of his hand.

I look out the window ready for school to start, and be over so I can spend time with my baby.

"I'll walk you to your class." he says as we pull in the student parking lot.

"Just don't be late to yours." I tell him taking off my safety restraint then getting out the car.

Not many people were in the parking lot, so we are either early or late. I check my watch to see we were in fact early.

"Come on C, so I can walk you to class." James says standing in front of his car.

I walk over to him, and he holds out his hand. We walked into school to see there were more people on the inside than outside.

"J, before we have to go to class I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry I haven't got you anything ahead of time. I didn't know what you would want, but I think now I have a good idea." I tell him as we stop by my classroom.

"It's okay Chloe, and all I really want is to spend time with you." he says and I feel my face heat up.

"I know it may not be the right time to say this, but you remember when I was giving a speech about your mom?" I ask him nervously.

"Yeah, what about it?" he asks looking into my eyes making me look away a little.

"Well I know now that I do love you." I tell him looking at him waiting for his reaction.

"I love you too princess." he says grabbing my face with both hands placing a kiss on my lips.

"Go to class you have five minutes now." I say smiling after we broke apart.

"I can't last in these dusty classrooms without you." he says making me laugh and people to look at us.

"Go J, before you get in trouble." I tell him and he looks at my eyes then my lips so I stick out my tounge.

"Give me kiss then," he says wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Too many people are in the hall now." I tell him taking in his cologne that smelled so good.

"It won't take long babe, stop procrastinating." he says looking at my face intently making me think I have something on it.

I lean in and put my lips on his, and he does the same making our lips move in sync. Instead of letting go he decides to deepen the kiss by biting my bottom lip.

"Get a room!" a voice yells and we break apart and look to see it's Jason with Heaven.

He asked her to be his girlfriend not too long after he asked me about her liking him. James is okay with it and so is Matthew.

"Shut up Jason!" James yells back making both Heaven and I laugh.

"I'll see you later babe." I say giving him a hug and turning around to go in my class.

"Be good." he says with a small laugh turning to go to his class down the hall.

I walk into class, and the lesson goes by in a haze.

"My best friend fine as hell!" Melissa yells once she sees me and I laugh.

"Right back at you babygirl." I say looking at her outfit.

She has her hair in two french braids, white long sleeved shirt, light blue ripped jeans and white flats.

"What are you and James doing for Valentine's day?" she asks once we reach each other.

"Going out to eat, and then probably just chill. What about you and Cody?" I ask her as we walk in the direction of our classrooms.

"Go to his house, and cook then watch a movie with his siblings." she says with a smile on her face.

"Aww wittle girl in wuv." I say in a baby voice poking her cheeks.

"You're so silly I swear." she says swatting my hands away from her face.

"I know right." I say in a high pitch voice causing her to laugh.

"Go to class I'll see you later." she says hugging me as she enters her classroom.

"Bye girlie." I wave as I enter my classroom.

The hours are going by fast, and I can't lie I'm excited to leave.

I'm sitting in class finished with all my work when I get a message. The teacher doesn't mind if we have our phones out as long as we're done with out work.

I take out my phone to see a message from my uncle. That's kind of weird, but I open it anyway.

Uncle 😈💙:  happy valentine's day Chloe I know you might have plans, but I was wondering can you watch Christian

I don't want to be rude and say no, but I wanted to spend time with James. We weren't doing that much, so I guess it won't be that bad watching after him. Plus I don't know the kid, and he is my brother.

Me: sure what time?

Not even a minute later he answers back.

Uncle 😈💙: thanks so much and at 4 we can meet up at the diner

I get out of school at three, so I can still have a little alone time with him.

Me: okay see u there ✌

All I have to now is break the news to J. Just in time the bell rings for us to go to lunch. I get out of my chair, and make my way out the door after I turn in my work.

"Hey princess." J says coming up to me grabbing my hand.

"Hey J." I say lacing our fingers together.

"Do you want to stay here for lunch?" he asks and I nod not really caring.

"J, my uncle wants me to watch Christian." I tell him and he looks at me curiously.

"When?" he asks getting that I wasn't joking.

"At four." I tell him and he nods.

"That's enough time to still be alone right?" he ask with a smile.

He never fails to make me happy.

"Yes, and we can still do the other stuff too if you want." I tell him and he laughs a little.

"Duh baby." he says as we walk into the cafeteria.

We make small talk as we are in the line. Our lunch period seems to pass by fast, and so does the rest of the day.

"We're free!" James yells when I make it to the car.

"Let's get some real food." I say as we get in the car buckling up.

"Chance or do you want to just go there at four?" James asks me as he puts the car in reverse.

"We can go to Chance, and eat there food is delicious." I tell him and he nods.

Soon enough we are in the diner eating our food and talking. Before we know it it's four, and Christian would be here at any minute.

"Chloe?" I hear my uncle ask so I turn around.

"Hey." I say getting up coming over to them.

Christian looks cute with his black and white plaid dress shirt, black jeans and black sneakers.

"Sorry to ruin you guys night." Uncle Tom apologizes.

"It's fine." James says shaking his hand.

"I'll get him a little later thanks so much." my uncle says handing me Christian's backpack.

"No problem." I say crouching down to Christian's height.

"You hungry buddy?" I ask him and he shakes his head no.

I grab his hand, and get my things along with James. He pays for the meal that I offered to pay for.

"Where do you want to go?" James asks Christian.

"Play games." he says and I smile because we were already going to do that.

"Alright let's go buddy." I say as we walk out the diner and to James car.

Once we were all buckled in properly I told James to drive to Game Stop.

"I wanted to get you something, and I know you've been wanting a certain game." I tell James once we make it in the store.

"I can pay for it babe." he says and I get frustrated.

"James, no I'm buying it just go get it please." I say walking away with my little brother to the kids section.

"What kind of games do you like?" I ask him as he looks at all the options mesmerized.

"I want this one." he says holding up Mario Kart on the Wii.

"Okay." I say walking to the register holding his hand.

Just when it's our turn James comes over, and places his game on the counter.

"Will that be all?" the cashier asks and I nod.

"Your total will be $46.95." he says and I pull out a fifty from my wallet.

"Your change will be $3.05." he says handing me back my change and the games in the bag.

"Thank you." I say grabbing the bag and walking away with James and Christian on each side of me.

"Thank you sissy." Christian says looking up at me with a smile on his face.

He is so adorable I can't wait to see what my kis will look like. I know it will be a lot of work, and I'm not planning on having any anytime soon.

"Thank you princess." James says kissing me on my cheek as we walk out the store.

"You both are very welcome, now let's go have some fun." I tell them with a smile on my face.

This is going to be the best Valentine's day ever. Thanks to my adorable little brother, and very handsome boyfriend. Everything happens for a reasin, so I guess it was meant for me to spend the day with these two amazing people.
