Change Me - Chapter 10

Jessica's POV 💭

By the time I pulled into my driveway it was ten o'clock and I knew my mother would flip . All the lights were off so I assumed she was asleep , but just incase I was going to sneak in through the back door .

Once I got in a quietly shut and locked the door . I was half way up the stairs when a light suddenly came on and I nearly had a heart attack.

"And where have you been young lady?" She asked

I turned around to see my mother sitting on the couch staring at me.

"You really sat here and used the stuff from a movie to catch me sneaking in?! Thanks for the heart attack !"

"I asked you a question , now answer it!" She was obviously upset

"I was at the park."

"With?"

"Tyler ."

She stood up and walked towards me,"And why were you there for so long? What was so important that you had to be out with some little thug for hours and not answer my calls?!"

"A project." I lied

"Oh really ?! And what was it about?" She asked obviously suspecting my lie

"You know .. Something like horizons from uhhhh ... Different view points." Ok .. I'm not the best liar.

By now she was in my face.

"Right .. Well project or not I don't want you to hang out with her."

"Since when did you control who I hang out with?!"

"Since you started hanging out with some girl off the streets!"

I stepped stunned at what she said.

"Jessica listen,"she started,"I just don't want her to pull you down the wrong path . "

"The only person who can pull me down the wrong path is myself . No matter what you say Im going to hang out with her . Whenever and wherever I want ." I shot back

"Would you like to bet on that?"

"Oh yeah sure ! What are you gonna do mom?"

She stood in silence .

"EXACTLY ! Goodnight ..." Then I walked up to my room and locked my door .

I took off all my clothes and ran some bath water . I don't usually take baths but I felt like I needed some relief .

I turned on my Pandora and sat my phone on a chair next to the tub .

After awhile my phone rang , it was Tyler .

"Hey you." I said after answering

"Hey white girl"

"I thought we got passed that." I said in a fake pouty voice

"Are you pouting ?"

"Yesss"

"Awww! Ok ok I'm sorry . I'll only call you by your name... For now" I could hear the smirk in her voice

"What do you mean for now?"

"Oh ... Nothing . " then she started laughing

"You're not funny !"

"Yes I am sweetheart ."

"Ooooo sweetheart, new nicknames I see."

"Yea yea yea . Maybe you should give me one."

"Ok .. Hmm... Ok baby."

"Baby?"

"Yes , baby. Should I give you a different one?"

"Uhhh ... No .. Umm .. Baby is cool."

"Stuttering much?"

"Not even . I'm cool."

"Right ... Ok baby."

"You're gonna have fun with this aren't you?"

"Yes !"

"Ok ... Well I gotta handle some stuff tonight so I'll talk to you later ok?"

"Tyler ..."

"Yea?"

"Be careful baby .."

"I will . GoodNight Sweetheart."

And then she hung up.

I finished my bath , dried off , put on panties and a jersey , and laid in my bed .

I sat there for while then decided to text Tyler , asking her to call when she got home no matter what time it was .. Just to let me know she was ok.
