“ What are you doing man?” He asked sounding scared
“ Pick it up if you feel you can take me little boy.” I say with sarcasm as he looks down at the gun then back up at me
“ Man are you crazy I just came to plant the coke.” He tells me as I shake my head
“ No you came in to be stupid. Trey your just a stupid no good ass wipe. You praise your father up high when he is just a bully that treats those around him as his pawns. Your sister was smart and got away helping to keep someone she thinks of as a REAL brother safe from him and you.” I say giving him a bit of information
“ No she isn’t as she is in college in Montana.” He says as I chuckle
“ Sure she is hmm now that is weird as I could of swore I saw her the other day. Oh and the picture on the wall behind you has her face in it.” I tell him bringing the truth out for him to see
I watch as he slowly turns to see the family picture of Heath and everyone taken recently. I hear a gasp from him as he turns back to look at me. He looks at me with some conflict before I hear Batman growl a bit louder. It’s at that moment that Trey made the most dumb decision. He actually picks his peashooter up to only point it at me.
“ NO THAT CAN’T BE HER. KEISHA WOULD NEVER CHOOSE THAT BABY OVER US!” He yells as I point at the other picture on the mantle with the gun in my right hand
He looks over at it shaking his head. It’s at that moment Trey looks back at me holding the gun tight in his hand. He cocks the hammer back as if to shoot me.
“ You really want to do this kid? You really want to be some guys bitch in jail?” I ask as he shakes his head
“ That’s the thing I won’t go to jail……because I’m going to kill you and the fucking dog asshole .” He says as I just shake my head as I lower my gun barrel a little then pull the trigger surprising poor Trey as he goes down dropping the gun only to grab his left lower leg
“ SON OF A BITCH YOU SHOT ME!” He screams as I smirk
I stepped over to only kick the gun again this time to the chair behind me. It was only a minute later that Batman went to Trey to make sure he didn’t move a muscle.
“ It’s ok Batboy, but if you insist guard him.” I say as my new friend barked
I pulled my phone out calling the police telling them there was a break in at the Thompson residence. They said they would be out asap. I stood there just staring at Trey who was bleeding on the floor. I knew I would have to clean it up since I shot the freaking idiot. It was around 9:30 p.m. when there came a knock on the door. I went to answer it and found a beautiful lady around my age standing with a very concerned expression on her face.
“ Hello sorry but I heard a gun shot is Heath and the family alright?” She asks as I nod
“ Yes they are as they are away on vacation. I am house sitting and the shot you heard was me defending myself from a idiot that broke in.” I explained as her eyes grew wide
“ Oh my are you alright? Who are you anyway? Heath never said he was leaving.” She asked as I nodded
“ Yes I am fine, I am a friend of Kaye’s and now Heath’s, and it was a sudden thing as the whole family wanted to spend a day together before going on a week long cruise.” I answered as she sighed in relief
“ Sorry for being so concerned as I took Heath in as a nephew. So should I call the police?” She asked as I shook my head as we heard sirens
“ Nope already called them.” I say as she nods
“ Well I guess I will go back home then. Just wanted to make sure Heath was ok.” She says as I grin nodding before she continued “ My name is Gina I live in the house up the beach. If you need anything just knock. My husband is over the lifeguards.”
“ Thank Gina, Heath told me about you and your family already. He said your good people and I have to agree, but he didn’t say you were beautiful.” I tell her trying to break the fear she had in her eyes
“ Aww thank you Mr.?” She exclaimed asking
“ William Augustus Grimm…..but you can call me William.” I exclaimed using my first name
“ Thank you William that is sweet of you. Well your busy I shall talk to you again I hope.” She says as I nod watching her show me a grin before turning to walk away
I watch her walk away as my eyes go to her tight sexy ass. I grin thinking her husband was one lucky son of a bitch. I shrug the thought that was running through my head. The police finally arrived with the local sheriff in tow. They came in as I showed them my bounty hunter badge along with my identification. They asked what all happened and I explained everything. The sheriff asks me for proof of me staying at the young man’s house that he considered a son. I went to the mantle and got the letter Heath had wrote for just this very thing.
I handed it to him as the paramedics came in to look at Trey. He read the letter then smiled. He said that he would book Trey himself as I told him about what Trey was doing tonight. They took Trey away, but escorted by two police cars as he would be arrested shortly after surgery. The sheriff shook my hand thanking me for protecting the home of someone he again called a son. After they left I started to clean up the carpet as Batman watched. I could say this was the first. I knew I was doing this for myself, but thinking on a higher level I knew I was protecting a home that meant something to so many. Once I was done with the blood soaked carpet.
I returned to the couch to relax once again. Batman joined me as I started petting him in thanking him for his assistance. That night I looked up above the mantle at the portrait of a older woman and a man. I guess they were the original members of Heath’s family. She seemed happy as did the man, but with some sadness. I could relate as the only family I had was long gone from me. Janice was my family as our parents died when we were younger. I kept to myself mostly except for Debra who I talked to from time to time. She never married telling me she would always wait on me to return one day. I felt so alone at that moment wishing I had her right now in my arms. I then started to think I was in a nice home by the beach. I grinned as I grabbed my phone and dialed Debra’s number. I let it ring until she answered.
“ Hello William is that you baby?” She asked as I grinned
“ Yes babe how are you doing?” I asked being concerned
“ Good baby missing you so much though. When are you going to come home and truly be with me?” She asks as I let out a sigh
“ Soon honey once I have who I am searching for.” I answer as she sighed
“ Baby please let me come to you. I could help my love I want to be in your arms so much.” Debra tells me as I smile
“ Debra, do you deeply love me that much?” I asked just needing to know again
“ Yes William so very much. Please come home and be with me.” She answers as I smile again
“ Actually babe why don’t you come where I’m at. I am house sitting for a friend. Her brother took her and all their family on a weeks cruise and I am alone except for the family dog. It could be our vacation so to speak.” I exclaimed as she got silent
“ You sure they wouldn’t mind baby? I don’t want you to get in trouble.” Debra tells me as I chuckle
“ They don’t mind babe they just said to clean up after myself.” I tell her hearing a gasp
“ Baby your not having sex with anyone without me are you? You know we made that pact.” She asked a bit hurt
“ No babe although I think the neighbor lady wants to, but I wouldn’t without you so what do you say?” I ask as she squeals
“ Where are you at I will leave in the morning sexy.’ She asks as I chuckle
I gave her the address as she again said she would be here as soon as she could. We talked a little bit longer saying our ‘ I love yous’ before hanging up. That night I slept on the couch as I have been as I didn’t want to sleep in another’s bed. That night my dreams came alive with Debra showing me the love I have been needing for so long.
=============================================================
It’s Saturday making it our second day on the cruise. It’s around 10 a.m. as I stand in a jewelry store. I am just looking at the rings as a sales lady comes over and asks if I am looking for anything. I tell her I am. In fact I was looking for four engagement rings. She looks at me puzzled until I point out across the way at the 4 ladies standing looking at lingerie. She giggles with a smile as she takes me over to look at some really beautiful rings. I have spent the last few weeks thinking of taking my relationship with my four loves to that next step.
As she shows me different styles and colored gems. I notice four that would fit each of them. All four have dolphins on the sides with a different colored jewel in the center. I ask about them as the lady smiles. She tells me that are the dolphin love collection. She tells me the price in which I tell her that price means nothing compared to one’s heart. She agrees as she places each in a small box as I pay with my card. Once I have the rings I make my way to find my god parents, Mom , and Faye. Once I find them out over the deck just relaxing around I let out a breathe before I speak to them.
“ Dad’s, mom’s I need to ask you all something especially Father Ricky, momma Verna, and momma Faye.” I say as they all look at me concerned
“ What is it hun?” Verna asks as Faye sits up to listen as does Ricky
“ Well I want to say I love you all and respect you. I know I have been hard to be around as of late, but it’s because of adjusting to everything.” I state as all the mom’s get up to comfort me
“ Son yes you have been a pain, but your our pain in the ass.” My mother says as we all laugh
“ Heath honey we love you very much so what is it you want to ask? I know it’s not money as you already have that, and we haven’t given you an allowance since you were 13 so what is it?’ Ellie says as we all laugh again
“ Ok you know I love Jasmine, Diamond, Hannah, and Tiffany. Well since I can’t ask Diamond or Hannah’s parents this I am asking about Jasmine and Tiffany. Can I get your permission’s to ask them to marry me?” I ask as they all got quiet before my god dad’s stood up coming over
