Brittney didn't move as he started back to class, he let out a little laugh, "Come Bit, let's go before we're late."
She shook her head trying to glare at him, "Boy I swear you trying to give yo' girl a heart attack!"
-- Brittney's House 3:00 --
Brittney sat at the bar still in her school cloths eating an apple watching her parents move around the kitchen. Her mother was cooking as usual and he dad was just in the way, they had com home late last night saying they had missed their babies, meaning Carolyn and her mom had been to worried to have anymore fun.
She thought about her plan, she would give Druex her answer all the while introducing him to the most important people in her life, her mom and dad. Her dad sat next to her and took her apple taking a huge bite out of it, "Now who is that you invited over?"
"Druex Fredricks, daddy." She replied as he handed her back her apple after two more bites.
Theresa, her mother, looked back while she was frying chicken, smiling knowingly, "And who is he to you sweetheart?"
"Mama you know." Brittney laughed as her mother laughed making her curled to perfection hair move just a little bit, her dad on the other hand saw nothing funny about it.
"Well, your mama may know but I don't angel. Who is this young man to you?" Her dad asked staring her down, she had forgotten that this would be hard, her dad only liked Jerome.
Brittney took a deep breath, and looked at her dad with the most innocent eyes. Her family was something really important to her and she thought it appropriate for him to know them since he was something new and important to her life. "He's my boyfriend daddy."
"What happened to Jerome, angel?" Steve asked standing up pulling a coke from the refrigerator, she knew he was on edge.
She tried her best not get an attitude or roll her eyes, "We broke up daddy, along time ago."
"Well, " Steve started turning back to her, "I'm glad I get to meet this nigga who is trying to get with my baby."
Theresa finally said something with a warning in her voice, he only called a man a nigga when he felt like he had something against him, "Steve, don't be like that. I'm sure this boy is very nice, and Bug seems to really like him so be good."
"What Resa? Just cuz I call him a nigga don't mean anything." Steve replied getting defensive.
Brittney laughed spitefully, "Yes it does daddy, please don't be mean to him. He's sweet and I really like him, so don't get no attitude wit him or anything."
Theresa turned a well trained eye to her daughter, "Don't get no?"
"Sorry ma, don't get an attitude." Brittney replied jumping up as she heard a car drive up. She ran over to the door smiling as he stepped out of it, he looked at her parents Benz that had been parked in the garage since they left for Virginia Beach.
Druex took his eyes off the black Benz and smiled pulling her into a hug, "Who's car is this?"
"My daddy's," She replied like it was a well known fact, his mouth fell open and he didn't take another step, "what boo?"
Druex was still shocked as he spoke, "Your dad's? Their back?"
Brittney smiled taking his hand, "Yep, came back last night, that was my surprise kind of."
"But Bit I can't go in there and be like I'm your daughters friend you know he won't take that ---" Druex went on until she put a finger to his lips getting closer to him.
"I'm not asking you to do that, I'm asking you to go in there and introduce yourself as my boyfriend." She smiled as the shock wore off and he pulled her into his arms grinning from ear to ear.
"You know what, I would love to do that." Druex whispered kissing her, he didn't know how else to contain his happiness.
