"I think it's time for Silas to go"

My dad said from the kitchen. Silas and Jordan have been here for about four hours. It's already ten.

They were supposed to leave at eight but my mom invited them to stay for dinner and Jordan wanted to play more with Myra.

My dad wants Silas to leave so bad because he caught Silas's hand on my lap during dinner. He saw me smiling so he accidentally dropped his napkin on the floor.

He literally crawled under the table and got a hold of Silas's hand. It looked like Silas gave birth to my dad.

After my mom put him in time out he came back in the room more calmer than before.

I'm still surprised that Silas actually let me put makeup on him and I didn't even have to use the speech I prepared.

"Yeah we have to get going it's a school night"

Silas said as he grabbed his jacket. My dad was shooketh when he saw the tattoo sleeves Silas had on both his arms. To me Silas looks absolutely tasty in those tattoos.

"Bye Jordan, bye inky"

Silas came up to me and hugged me. He squeezed my waist then pulled away. He laid a kiss on my cheek then said goodbye to my parents and Myra.

I could tell my dad was squeezing the life out of Silas hand by the evil smirk that spread across his face. One slap to the head from my mom made him let go though.

"See you tomorrow Myra don't forget to bring the thing for you, Tristan, and I"

She winked at Myra and Myra winked back. They've been using nonspecific words ever since Jordan got here.

Myra has been talking about this Tristan boy non-stop. She's happy that she has two friends now. Jordan on the other hand was blushing everytime Myra mentioned Tristan.

Silas wasn't happy about that. He would lean in closer to the girls everytime he heard Tristan's name pop up. Especially if his name came out of Jordan's mouth.

Once Silas left I went straight to my room. Silas was the one keeping me awake, now I can snore my life away.

The next day

I didn't even want to wake up for school today. I only woke up because my mom would've beat my ass if I didn't.

After I finished brushing my teeth, washing my face, and taking a shower I went straight to my closet.

I picked out my black crop top, plaid skirt, ripped jean jacket and my black and white vans.

After I got dressed I went downstairs to eat breakfast. I know my dad is going to give me a hard time about wearing a skirt to school.

As I made my way down the stairs I mentally repaired myself for the speech I'm about to get.

"Goodmoring mom. Where's dad?"

"He said he had to get something from his office"

I nodded my head and picked up a piece of bacon from Myra's plate. I took a seat at my chair and ate my eggs, grits, and sausage.

I was about to get out of the house when my dad called me to the kitchen. Once I walked into the kitchen I saw what I feared the most.

My dad with his measuring stick in his hand.

I knew what was going to happen so I took off my bookbag. He placed the measuring stick on my thing and measured the distance from my knees to where the skirt stopped.

He sucked in his breathe and looked up at me. Don't tell me I have to change. I have people to see.

"Nevaeh you're one inch away from that skirt being too short. You can wear that skirt one more time then it's going to Goodwill"

It's not my fault I'm about 5'9. It's his fault I take after him in height while my mom is 5'4.

"Baby girl I'm doing this for your own good. I don't want you to attract the wrong type of attention"

After he checked for the length of my crop top Myra and I went to the car. Of course Myra tripped on the way there like usual.

"After school I'm getting my hair done so find a hairstyle you want to do"

She nodded her head and immediately went looking. My date with Silas is tomorrow which means I have to look my best.

My mom gave me money to pay for Myra's hair since she's tired of breaking all her good combs and brushes on her thick course hair.

Once I got to the school I was meet by Nova who had a scowl on her face. I slowly made my way to my locker, scared of when Nova is going to explode.

"You have a date with Silas and you didn't tell me"

"How do you know that?"

I know Silas didn't tell her since he's still not talking on public. Myra doesn't have her number and neither does Jordan and my mom.

"While you were having your little karaoke session you accidentally called me. And also you should never sing"

I laughed at her comment. I remember at my last house our neighbors called the police because they thought someone was getting killed.

When they found out it was just my singing they offered to pay for singing lessons. To say I was offended was an understatement.

"You want to come over to my house tomorrow to help me get ready"

"Of course, I have nothing better to do anyways"

I nodded my head and opened my locker. I took out my three needed notebooks and closed the locker door.

I was about to walk away when I felt a hand pull me back by the waist. I was expecting to turn around to Silas but I was meet with Mark that had a cheesy smile on his face.

I slapped his hands off my waist and kept it pushing. If Mark is around that means Emily isn't far behind.

Once I got to class I was meet with Silas taking up my seat and his seat in the back of the room. He was full on snoring too.

I tapped on his shoulder causing his eyes to slowly open. Once he saw it was me a smile spread across his face causing me to smile. He sat up and pulled me in for a hug.

"Why are you so sleepy inky?"

"Jordan kept me up all night talking about a new episode of some Netflix show. She even reinacted the scenes"

Silas whispered. If I didn't lean in while he was talking I wouldn't have heard anything he said. He made sure to keep his voice way under a whisper since there was many people around.

"You want me to sit with Nova so you can take the two seats?"

"I could just sleep on your lap"

I nodded my head and took a seat. I felt shivers run through my body as Silas's cold hands made contact with my lap. His hands gripped my thigh before he finally snuggled into my lap and fell asleep.

That's how the rest of first period went. Silas was snoring on my lap while the teacher was teaching.

I guess Emily knew he was on my lap since she kept on whispering his name and telling him to come sleep on her lap next.

I'm guessing he heard her since he said he didn't want to die from fish poison.

That's basically how the day went. Silas, Nova and I hanging out together while Emily stalked us from a distance.

On my way to my car I was stopped by an arm pulling me back. If this is Mark I'm going to run his ass over with my mom's BMW.

"Nevaeh it's just me"

Silas whispered. I finally turned around and greeted him with a smile. He pulled me in for a hug which I gladly accepted.

"Can you please watch over Jordan for me today. My boss called me in early for work today"

"Sure it's no problem. Myra and I are getting our hair done, I could pay for her hair too"

"You don't have to pay here"

He said and handed me a hundred dollar bill. I gladly took it and put it in my back pocket. That hundred can pay for our food and dessert.

Once I arrived to their school Myra and Jordan ran to my car. The fact that Myra didn't trip over air was beyond me.

"So Silas told me I'm getting my hair done today.  Can I dye it pink or purple?"

Jordan asked excitedly. I could tell she really wants to get her hair dyed. I told her to try a more settle color or a more solid one.

I was about to pull off when I heard a knock on my window. It was Tristan and his mom standing outside of my car. I rolled down my window and asked what they needed.

"Can you please take Tristan with you. I need a spa day"

She looked absolutely exhausted. She had on a blue slipper and a pink slipper with her sleeping gown on. I could tell Tristan is a hand full.

Before I could even answer Tristan opened the door and hopped in the car. The girls immediately moved over so he could sit in the middle.

"Thank you so much. I'll pay you thirty dollars an hours"

She handed me a hundred dollar bill and told me to get his hair done too. She quickly walked away and hopped in her car.

I looked at the three kids that sat in the back of the car. I guess I'm running a baby sitting service.

Today is going to be a fun day.
