Missy Elliot- The Rain
Gianni peered his son through the doorway who was still in bed rubbing the sleep out his eyes. "How much do you love her?" His thick Italian accent waved in the air curiously.
"How much do you think?" His son replied. His father hummed smiling lightly reminiscing the drawings he found in his son's room of the girl. "Enough for you to ask me to take her case"
"Then you've answered your own question" Beau removed the cover to go to the bathroom, but not without giving his father a hug. "Grazie" He whispered lightly.
Gianni bit back a question and shook his head at his son who only said a few words at a time, but said enough for one to understand his motives.
"You covered your scars?" Alexis questioned the first Haven got in the car. Haven nodding not wanting people to see the damage Elijah left behind. "Oh except for one I see" Alexis smirked referring to Haven's neck. Confused Haven pulled out a mirror from her purse to inspect her neck, she then closed her eyes at her forgetfulness.
She completely forgot to cover the hickeys Beau left behind yesterday, and the turtle neck she wore wasn't high enough, she groaned in annoyance. "He did a good job" Alexis said driving off. Haven rolled her eyes. "We already talked about last night let's not go over it again please"
Alexis simply ignored her. "So how does it feel like to be a women?" Alexis asked stopping at a red light while Haven frowned. "Hickeys don't make me a women" "Your right I'll asked again when you get some dick" She casually said turning at the green light. Haven shook her head, Alexis had no filter, but she loved it most of the times.
Haven knew the moment she came back to school it would cause attention that she wasn't a fan of. Not only were the stares pissing her off but so was the whispering infront of her as she walked down the hall with Alexis along the side.
She could hear the pity in the voices as they spoke not to far from her while other's said she was asking for it. She could feel her eyes start to water blinking them back they stopped infront of their lockers.
Alexis watched her friend with a frown. "Don't y'all bitches have something else to talk about like we're right here we can hear you!" Alexis yelled out with no shame. The hall seemed to freeze and the people around tensed in realization that they were a bit to loud with their gossiping, slowly they walked away awkwardly.
"Thank you Alexis" Haven said with a small smile that didn't reach her eyes. "Don't let them get to you remember I'm here if you need to talk" Haven simply nodded. After retrieving their things for class they stop infront of there first period already seeing Beau bright and early which was new he was usually fifteen minutes late, making up an excuses as to why he was always late.
His last reason was because his cat ran away, he didn't even own a cat. "Good morning Beau" Alexis greeted with a bright smile. "Morning Alexis" He greeted back with a husky voice. "Hmmm... so I heard you like chocolate?" Alexis simply wanted reaction out of Haven. Haven coughed awkwardly while avoiding eye contact with Beau.
"What's not to like it's sweet" He replied looking directly at Haven with hungry eyes. "Well I'll be In class" Alexis said walking rather quickly leaving Haven alone with Beau. Haven quickly tried to walk away but felt a hand slip into her's. "You won't even look at me did I do something wrong?" He asked concerned. "Yes" She replied.
