Chapter 11 – Coming Home

Two weeks later…

Rayne had never been so nervous, it wasn't the flying she was afraid of, the plane had already landed she was in a cab on the way home. She was nervous because she had come home two weeks early, she had only been gone a month and in that month she had realized, that she never should have left in the first place.

She was going home early to be with Roman. She would pick her car up from home and then go straight to races, where she knew Roman would be and she was going to run in to his arms and tell him she was in love with him and she was sorry that she left and if he would let her she wanted to make a go of things with him. She was nervous and excited but she was going to do it no matter what! Even if she arrived home and he was dating someone else she was going to tell him.

"Thanks and good luck" the driver said taking the cash Rayne handed to him, she had been telling the driver all about her and Roman and he wished her luck.

"Thanks" Rayne smiled exited the cab taking her suitcase with her, she knew no one would be in it they would be partying plus they didn't know she was coming home. She opened the front door with her key left her suitcase at the bottom of the stairs and found her car keys in the kitchen draw where Brian thought they were safe.

Rayne ran out of the front door a huge smile on her face and raced to her car, she may have broken a few speed limits on the way to Tej's but she didn't get caught so it didn't matter. She parked up outside and then entered still with that huge smile on her face. She walked around and found Mia and Letty first.

"You're back early!" Mia screamed hugging her

"I got some stuff to take care of" Rayne explained, Letty hugged her and told her it was good to have her home, Rayne asked where Brian and Suki were and Mia pointed in the direction of the beer, "I'll catch up with you guys later" Rayne said before walking off.

Rayne walked to where she knew the beer was kept in Tej's and found Brian, Suki, Tej and Roman laughing, no one noticed her at first, she watched Roman for a second and lost her bottle she wasn't going to tell him, she would wait for a better time.

Rayne walked up behind Suki and placed her hands over her eyes "guess who?" Tej asked, Suki traced her hand down Rayne's arm trying to figure it out and came across the Tiffany's bracelet and let out a small scream before jumping around and hugging her friend.

"your home, your home" Suki said almost squeezing the life out of Rayne, Rayne laughed and hugged Brian and Tej once Suki had released her.

Neither Rayne nor Roman moved in to hug the other they looked at one another and just said hello. "Why you home early?" Brian asked

"Nice to see you too bro!" Brian gave her a sarcastic look "I just wanted to come home, New York gets boring after a while" she lied, she was home because of Roman when nobody said anything else Rayne asked "so what's the gossip? What I miss?"

Everyone looked at the other with a worried expression and then all eyes fell on Roman, "can we go somewhere and talk?" he asked looking at Rayne.

"Sure" she replied not liking everyone's change of attitude. Roman gestured for Rayne to walk away "lead the way" she told him. He walked out of the circle and Rayne followed. He wasn't prepared for this he thought he had another two weeks to figure out what he was going to say to her. Roman lead Rayne out of Tej's and towards her car

"I've had to much to drink to drive" he told her, she opened the car using her fob and Roman got in to the passenger seat, he told her to drive somewhere where there wouldn't be any people so they could talk without being interrupted.

Rayne wasn't sure where to drive but she ended up on the beach, she stopped and killed the engine, Roman looked over at her and sighed he exited the car and sat on the bonnet she didn't follow straight away but she opened her door and asked "I'm not gonna like this am I?"

"No" he told her honestly. She closed the door and sat beside him on the bonnet, neither one spoke they both gazed out at the ocean enjoying the air that cooled them, Rayne shivered slightly "cold?"

"Yeah" she said rubbing her arms, he stood up from off the bonnet and stood in front of her and rubbed her arms for her and then pulled her closer to him, hugging her. She didn't push him away and wrapped her arms around his waist and leant her head on his stomach.

Rayne knew it was hard for Roman to share his feelings or tell someone something he knew they weren't going to like so she wouldn't push him, she would just wait for him to tell her in his own time.

After a while of standing in his arms Rayne stood up straight and stared up at his face, his eyes were closed and he was breathing heavily. "Why'd you really come home early?" he could always tell when she was lying, he looked down at her.

"cause I realized I made a mistake by leaving in the first place…I made a mistake by leaving you" there it was, exactly what he had wanted to hear for the past month, he couldn't help himself he had to feel her close to him, he leaned down and kissed her. His hands began to wander around her body, she put her hands up his shirt and used her nails to tickle his stomach, he groaned with his mouth still on hers. Roman ran his hands down her back and found her butt, he squeezed each cheek and then picked her up, she wrapped her legs around him and he gently lay her on the car bonnet and began tracing kisses down her neck. "Rome stop" she groaned "stop" he stopped and looked up at her, she caught her breath "what did you have to tell me first?"

He moved away from her and she slid down the car before her feet hit the floor and she stood up, he walked away from her and stared up at the sky "FUCK!" he yelled

"Rome you're scaring me!" she told him

he turned around and walked towards her "Rayne I'm so sorry" he began standing close to her "you know its you that I want right?" she sort of nodded but didn't want to interrupt him "shit….I don't know how to say this…"

"Just say it Rome"

he sighed and took a few deep breathes "Melissa's pregnant and it's mine" Rayne's eyes filled with tears and he hated that he was the cause of it, "I'm sorry" she walked away from him and kept her back to him "we're not together, I told her I'd be there for her and the baby but I wouldn't date her…I don't want her" Rayne turned around and walked towards the car and opened the door "say something please?" Roman begged

"Congratulations" she said getting in to the car and starting the engine; Roman ran to the passenger side and opened the door.

"Please stay so we can talk"

Rayne leant her elbow on the window and bit her thumb nail "get in the car Rome"

"Rayne please"

"Rome get in the car or I'll run you down" she threatened revving the engine

"Rayne…" he began

"ROME I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T GET IN THE DAMN CAR…" Rayne yelled, Roman knew not to upset her further and did as he was told and got in to the car.

Rayne drove home recklessly "Slow down!" Roman warned "your gonna kill us both?" he held on to the door and braced himself for the collision with the car coming towards them as Rayne overtook a car in the wrong lane. She avoided the crash and got in to the proper lane in time

"And what'd be so bad about that?"

Roman sighed and looked out of the window "Rayne I'm so sorry…I didn't mean for it to happen… we were always careful"

"Rome save me the details of your sex life" no more was said Rayne parked her car on the drive and walked in to the house, calmly, she didn't seem pissed off or angry, she was fine. Brian and Mia sat in the living room watching TV waiting for them to return home.

"Everything cool?" Brian asked standing up when Rayne entered the room followed by Roman.

"Yeah why wouldn't it be?" Rayne asked sitting on the free arm chair and beginning to take off her sneakers.

Brian looked up at Roman who stood leaning on the door frame his arms crossed watching Rayne, Roman looked at Brian and shrugged "you didn't let me finish" Roman announced looking at Rayne

"Can you finish in the morning?" Rayne asked standing up holding her sneakers in her hand to put them in their right place on her way to bed "I'm jet lagged I need some sleep" she walked past him in the door way and called goodnight to everyone and then they heard her close her bedroom door.

"She took it better than I expected" Brian said as Roman sat in the chair Rayne had been sat in previously.

"She threatened to run me over" Roman told him

"Ok maybe not"

"Go tell her the rest Rome" Mia instructed "she needs to know everything at once so she can process it"

"I got no chance Mia, there's no point"

"You don't know till you try" Brian informed him

"Come on" Roman began looking at Mia "would you date Brian knowing some other women was carrying his baby?"

"Yeah cause I love him" Mia answered

"Stop putting it off and go tell her" Brian commanded

Roman growled because he was being ordered around but he knew they were right, he stood up and walked up to Rayne's bedroom door. He knocked on the door then entered the room; Rayne was sat on her bed on her cell phone.

"Yeah Suk's I'll come round when I get up but it wont be early…yeah that's cool…we can go out for lunch or something…missed you to babe, later" Rayne hung up and looked up at Roman "what?"

He sat besides her on the bed and looked at her "I need to tell you everything"

"What Melissa's moving in?"

"No, Rayne I wanna be with you, I don't want Melissa, obviously I'm gonna take care of my kid…"

She interrupted "cause you don't wanna be your father right?"

He nodded "yeah, Rayne if you want me I wanna be with you, I want us to be a couple"

Rayne looked at him and searched his face for any kind of sign that he was joking "you're serious?" he nodded, yes "you really think Melissa would let that happen, I don't think so Rome"

"She'd have to live with it"

"Rome, I came back to be with you but things are totally different now, I don't know if I could date you while Melissa is having your kid"

"I understand, I just wanted you to know that the offer is there if you want me…" he spoke softly "I'm yours"

She smiled weakly "I just need some time to think and stuff"

"Just as long as you don't run off to New York again"

She laughed lightly "no I'm not going anywhere" he kissed her forehead and said goodnight before leaving the room.

Rayne walked down the stairs seeing Roman and Brian sat on their beanbags playing Playstation, she had been upstairs getting ready to go out shopping with Suki and someone had been knocking on the door for the last 5 minutes and neither of them seemed to hear it "can you two not hear the pounding on the door or what?" Rayne called in to them getting to the bottom of the stairs and opening the door

"We thought you'd get it" Brian called not taking his eyes off the car racing game.

"What am I the fucking maid?" she mumbled to herself as she opened the front door. She looked up to see Melissa with a smug smile on her face.

"Heard you were home" Melissa said walking in to the house; Rayne closed the door behind her. "He told you?" Melissa asked turning to look at Rayne before she walked in to the living room.

"Yeah, congratulations" Rayne walked past her and in to the living room

"So now you know to stay away from my man" Melissa told her walking over to Roman and placing her arms around his neck and kissing his cheek, he moved her arms and stood up.

"You sure he's your man?" Rayne asked "cause I hadn't been back an hour and we we're lying on my car bonnet getting a little hot and heavy" Rayne placed a smug grin on her face and waited for the words to register. "I'm going out with Suki I will be back later" Rayne said looking at Brian and then Roman

Rayne left and Melissa turned to Roman and began to scream obscenities at him about how she was carrying his baby and he was off shagging Rayne. "First of all…" Roman began pointing a finger in her face "don't shout at me, second I ain't your man and third I didn't sleep with Rayne last night"

"I don't like you living here with her! If you want anything to do with your kid I suggest you find some other living arrangements" Melissa demanded.

Rayne drove to Suki's with a smile on her face, she had so got one over on Melissa, but it wouldn't last long, she knew that Roman would pay for what she had said. Rayne entered the Parker residence and called out Suki's name, "in here" Suki called back from the kitchen.

"Hey" Rayne said entering the kitchen to see Tej, Suki and Tej's cousin Tyler.

"You remember Tej's Cousin Tyler right?" Suki asked Rayne

"I remember him being a scrawny little geek with glasses and braces, not an Omarion look-a-like"

Tyler laughed and showed off his pure white picture perfect teeth and walked closer to Rayne and offered his hand for her to shake "and I remember making you cry by telling you the Backstreet Boys were gay"

Rayne shook his hand and laughed too "nice to see you again"

"Believe me the pleasure is all mine"

"Ok when you two are done flirting I would like to get my torture of shopping over and done with" Tej said ushering them towards the door and out of the house. Suki slapped his arm and told him to stop moaning.

Suki and Tej rode in the same car and Rayne offered to take Tyler with her, he didn't complain and they drove to the mall in deep conversation.

"I just finished mechanic school, Tej said he'd always have a job for me so here I am" Tyler answered Rayne's question of why he was here.

"So you're staying in Miami then?"

"Till I make my million and can open my own garage"

"You're definitely related to Tej, it's all about the money"

"It ain't about the money; it's about having a vision and a dream and chasing it, no matter what it takes"

Rayne nodded "I like that"

Roman sighed, he and Melissa were going round in circles, he refused to move out of the house and told her she had no say whatsoever about whom he had relationships with. She threatened him with the usual; she would stop him from seeing his child.

"If you stop me from seeing my kid, you'll get no money from me and you can't afford to keep yourself let alone a kid!" Roman told her

"I just don't like that you live here with her!" Melissa explained

"Yeah well you'll just have to get use to it"

"I shouldn't have to!" Melissa yelled, Roman gave her a look that said he was on the edge of blowing up at her, so she calmed down and returned her voice to its normal pitch and tone. "I'm carrying your kid, whether you like it or not, we should at least try to be a couple for the baby's sake!" Roman began to say something but she placed her finger on his lips to silence him "when you've got Rayne out of your system have a think about it" Roman didn't reply and Melissa left him alone in the living room to ponder his thoughts.

Suki, Tej, Tyler and Rayne pilled in to Tej's and Suki's house after a long day of shopping. Tyler walked up the stairs with his shopping bags to unpack his new things. After sitting down at the kitchen table Rayne's phone called out the tune of 50 Cent's – Outta Control. She flipped open the phone and put it to her ear "hey Mia…cool thanks…he in a good mood... so I'm not gonna help then…I'll be home in about 15, bye"

"What's that all about?" Suki asked handing her a can of Pepsi.

"Telling me Melissa's gone"

"And your not gonna help what?" Tej asked

"Your gonna tell him no aren't you?" Suki asked "that your not gonna be with him right?" Rayne took a sip of her Pepsi and then stood up to leave "answer the question"

"What do you expect me to do Suk's huh? Date him while some other women carries his child? I can't deal with that, it would be too much trouble, Melissa would make things hard for us, it's just not a realistic idea!"

"But you wanna be with him" Suki reminded her

"Yeah well I can't think about myself right now I need to do what's best for Roman and his kid, even if he doesn't realise it" Suki nodded as if she understood what Rayne had said but still wasn't happy about her decision. "I'll call you tomorrow"

"You not coming to races?" Suki asked as Rayne walked to the kitchen door

"No, I'm going to Diablo with a few people" Rayne told them, Diablo was one of Miami's hottest nightclubs. Tej knew some people who knew some people and could always get Rayne in when she wanted to go. Suki looked at Tej and knew he had hooked her up.

"Don't look at me like that, I didn't ask why she was going" Tej explained.

"Suki don't be mad at me it's just time I moved on…Tell Tyler I said bye" Rayne left the house and walked to her car sighing, knowing Suki was angry with her, and she wasn't entirely sure why.
