As JC sat next to me and Cheyenne sat next to Yvonne, we all started to eat. I was just thinking where to start off. I decided to tell them how my mother became a prostitute and how I came into it.
"Okay now, I think I will start off by telling you why my mom became a prostitute" I said softly
"Are you sure you want to tell us all?" Yvonne asked and I nodded my head
"Of course but only if you guys want to hear?" I asked
They all nodded and I took a bite of my chicken, smiling.
"Okay, well, my dad had to go off to this big case for a while. I remember because I was eight and dad had told mom to take care of me" I started taking a drink of my Vanilla Coke, "Well, he would call us every night. You see, he had to go to Florida. Well, five months passed and no phone calls were sent or even letters. That's what my mom said. After the depression going through her, she met Juan and Miguel" I replied
"I thought he did call, though" Josh said looking to me
"He did but mom didn't tell me. The thing that makes me mad is that she hid those letters from me" I told them, "and the gifts that she cashed in to get crack. Well, I became a prostitute because I had nothing to offer at the time. No one would be my friend because I only had a mother. Well not many would be my friend. She was crazy and always slept around. It sometimes wondered me if she ever got pregnant... I became one at the age of thirteen years old and no, I never had any fun doing what I did, but my mom taught me this is what life is like" I told them
"Wow baby" JC said grabbing my hand, "Not to be mean or anything, but she sounds like a fucked-up bitch"
"She was and she slapped me when I called her a fucking slut! The problem was it didn't hurt" I said laughing a little bit
"We know that because you are very strong" Cheyenne said smiling
"True that" I said laughing a little
"So tell me this" Yvonne replied eating her rice, "How did you become so tough and strong?"
"I was wondering that myself" Josh laughed
"Funny story" I said finishing my food
"We got the time" Lance said softly, "We aren't going anywhere"
"Got that right... so babe, tell us"
"Well, my dad taught me from the age of five years old to the age of eight. From boxing to taking care of myself" I said to them
"No wonder you can kick Josh's ass" Lance said laughing
"Hey!" JC said pouting
"I would never kick his ass..." I started but JC interrupted me
"That's good"
"I wasn't done" I told him
"Oh sorry" he said looking to me
"Like I said I was saying, I wouldn't kick his ass... yet!" I said winking to him
"Whoa!" JC said laughing
"What?" I asked softly
"You are so bad" JC laughed
"Only for you" I said kissing his cheek
"I feel so loved" Cheyenne laughed as her cell phone rang
~Cheyenne~
I looked at the number and sighed. It was Ben and I sighed. I excused myself from the table and walked into my bedroom. Tears then suddenly fell. I hadn't thought about him since yesterday with Lance. I then flipped my phone open and I put my earpiece on.
"Hello..." I said softly
"Cheyenne?"
"Ben, what do you want?" I asked shutting my door, "I was having diinner with JC and Ariadne"
"We need to talk" he said as I sat on my bed
"What about? We have nothing to say. Remember, I am just a good lay" I said refreshing his memory
"Cheyenne, I didn't mean it..." he sighed
"Fuck you, Ben. I am really happy. I don't want you. All you did was cheat on me and I want to be loved by just one man" I sighed as I hung up
~Ben~
What she didn't know was I was just a block away from her. Lt. Hernandez had told me where they were staying. I was lacking in so much paper work and he couldn't take it anymore. He told me the address and if things went well, he'd transfer me to Malibu. Hopefully, it would be okay.
Damnit, how could I say that to Ariadne and Cheyenne? I cannot believe I hit on Ariadne. I then parked at her house and got out.
"Here goes nothing" I said sighing and walked to the door
~Cheyenne~
As I walked in the kitchen, it was just Yvonne and Ariadne. They walked to me, handing me some tissues.
"He called to apologize. I love him. Being with him so long hurts" I said sitting on the stool as the door bell rang
"Hun, it's okay. It's not like he's here anyways" Ariadne said softly
"Yeah, he's all the way in Virginia" Yvonne said smiling
"Yeah, I guess" I said sighing
"GET OUT! WHY ARE YOU HERE BEN?" JC yelled
I ranup the steps towards where JC stood at the door, and there I saw him, Ben. Tears then began to fall and I sighed loudly. Why was he here? Was he going to make me feel like shit now? I then ran into the bathroom, throwing up. What no one knew was I was pregnant with Ben's child. I knew it was his the last night JC and me had sex, it had been six months. I knew it was Ben's because we had made love two months ago and well, I am two months pregnant.
~Ben~
I tried to get past JC but he kept pushing me back. Some other guy and girl were there though, but why?
"Let me see her, man" I said holding the flowers in my right hand
"Why? You just going to mess Ariadne up saying she's a piece of ass and Cheyenne hates you. Just get out of here. You caused to much shit" JC snapped
"What are you? Her father? Let me see her" I said pushing my way past JC and knocked on the bathroom door
The door opened and there stood Cheyenne, with tears running down her face. I handed her the white daisies and handed her the envelope. I watched her open the envelope and gasp. Inside was the wedding band and the engagement ring.
"Please take me back, Cheyenne... I am sorry..." I said looking at her
"I... I can't..." she said looking to me
"I love you, Chey. God, I messed up. I lost the love of my life" I said backing away, "You can keep the rings"
"That wouldn't be fair..." she said
"It's okay. You can cash it in or something. Buy yourself something nice"
Tears then ran down her face and she ran to the toilet, vomiting. I shut the bathroom door and kneeled beside her, rubbing her back. She then flushed the toilet and looked at me.
"I'm pregnant" she said softly
