Stef- a few months later
Lena has all but moved in officially she has all her stuff here and we got into a routine with each other. We just haven't made it official that she won't be staying with Jenna and Kelly anymore, and i want too.
"Hey love" i said wrapping my arms around her waist as she cooked supper.
"Hey baby, good day at work" she asked kissing me.
"Yeah guess so… same old you know" i said grabbing a piece of chicken.
"Hey hey… you will not be allowed in the kitchen while i'm if you steal food. Supper will be done in fifteen minutes you will live" she said and i sighed.
"Sorry mommy i only had one piece" i said innocently.
"Ha right didn't anyone teach you not to steal food from a woman with a knife" she said holding up the big sharp knife.
"Ok i'll behave" i said hands up in surrender backing away. She laughed and went back to making the chicken casserole thing. My cell rang and i looked down too see it was Mike calling.
"Hey what's up" i said.
"Hey listen you're dad came in looking for you after you left working looking mad saying he needs to speak with you immediately. I think he might know you are with Lena" he warned. He better be kidding me.
"Mike you better be joking" i said seriously getting a look from Lena.
"I'm not and David made things worse" he said and i groaned.
"Of course David made things worse. David always makes things worse, someone needs to duct tape his mouth shut" i said and Mike laughed.
"What did David do?"
"Well he gave your dad a lecture on being a loving acceptful father, honestly it was torture" he said and i can feel a headache coming.
"Great tell David to keep his mouth shut from now on i can handle it from here" i said and hung up.
"What was that all about?" Lena asked.
"My dad knows we're together" i said and she gave me a worried glare. Someone knocked on the door and i tensed up. I'm not ready for this yet.
"It's ok" she said squeezing my hand. I went and got the door, trying to stay calm.
"Hey dad" i said forcing a smile.
"I need too talk too you" he said looking over at Lena.
"Alone, please" he said rudely.
"Of course" she said going into the other room.
"Is she living here?" he asked looking disgusted.
"Pretty much" i managed to admit.
"Are you freaking kidding me? You know this is wrong, Stef" he said and i shook my head.
" I love her dad and she loves me, please explain to me what's wrong with that" i yelled.
"You don't love her" he said and i bite my tongue to keep from yelling at him too get the fuck out of my apartment.
"No you know what dad. I'm done. I'm done listening to you and i'm done being told how to feel. I've already tried so hard to please you and you know what it's apparently impossible. Because i'll never be good enough for you." i shouted back.
"Thats not true…"
"Yes it is, i have changed my life around for you and i'm still not good enough. I'm sorry i'm not perfect" i screamed.
"This has nothing to do with me" he said calmly.
"Bull shit, it doesn't. I didn't do anything wrong i fell in love. You wouldn't have a problem if i fell in love with a white man" i said quieter. I don't exactly want Lena too hear that my dad also has a problem with her being biracial.
"I didn't bring race up" he defended himself.
"You didn't have too dad because i know you. I know you were thinking that too. You're racist and judgemental person in general" i said keeping my voice down but keeping the sternness behind the words.
"Stef being gay is a sin" he said and i laughed humorlessly.
"Wow dad… i'm having deja vu so bad right now." i commented.
"You should be we have had this conversation so many times. You know what you are doing is wrong" he said and i just rolled my eyes.
"Heres my problem with religion. Supposedly i'm committing a sin for falling in love with someone who happens to be female. So god wants me to fall in love with someone according too there genitials. Kind of perverted, too be honest." i argued.
"You know being gay is wrong" he said turning around and leaving. I shook my head and blinked away the tears in my eyes.
"Hey you ok" she asked coming back out of the other room.
"No" i said and she pulled me into a hug.
"I hate him so much"i said.
"I know babe. I'm sorry" she said rubbing my back.
"He will come around" she said but i can tell she wasn't sure of it herself. Why can't my dad just accept me for once?
Lena
I feel so bad for Stef. I can't imagine what it would be like to have your dad not accept you like that. My dad was always accepting and my mom got there eventually.
I kissed her cheek and she pulled away.
"Stef"i said.
"Sorry i just…" she said and i hope she's not distancing herself because of her dad's disapproval. It wasn't exactly the easiest task to get her to realize her sexuality the first time i don't want to do it again.
Mike
Stef came in and i groaned.
"Who is this?" she said looking at Abby.
"The question is who are you?" Abby asked and i rolled my eyes.
"Excuse me" Stef said.
"Ok Abby this is my lesbian friend who doesn't believe in knocking Stef, and Stef this is my girlfriend who i was going to tell you about i swear Abby" i said hoping to keep this from becoming as pathetic as my girlfriend getting into a catfight with lesbian friend.
"Nice too meet you" Stef said putting her hand out to shake. A little hesitantly Abby shook her hand.
"So you just walk in whenever you want?" she asked shocked and a little jealous sounding.
"Yeah i should have trained her to knock when i had the chance" i said and she gave me a look like if Abby wasn't here she would be flipping me off.
"I'm sorry bad habit" she said annoyed. I know she's in a bad mood. I already know why she's here, her dad probably disowned her.
"Do you know if David is working i'll go talk to him?" she said giving me a look of 'how did you get a girlfriend?'.
"I don't think he is, i suggest knocking there" i said.
"Alright i will" she said annoyed. "Have fun"
I gave her a look of 'i'm going to kill you' and she smiled.
"It was nice too meet you Abby" she said leaving.
"Sorry about that"
"It's ok she's interesting" she said. "Is she taken?"
"Uh yeah why?" i asked a little concerned.
"Nothing just making sure i'm not wearing a bra" she said self consciously.
"She wouldn't look at you, she's loyal. And i would kill her" i said and she laughed.
Stef
I knocked on his door and he opened it.
"Hey you ok?" he asked and i shook my head. He hugged me.
"Oh hon, it's ok. You're dad is an asshole. Screw him" he said and i laughed.
"Now tell me why you are on my porch" he said and i sighed.
"Because you won't let me in" i said and he let me in.
"Oh right sorry" he said closing the door behind me.
"I mean why are you here…" he said and i know he's not trying to sound like he doesn't want me here.
"Well Mike was about to screw some Abby chick so i had to leave there" i said and looked down sad.
"Sorry honey but he is straight" i said squeezing his hand.
"It's ok… what i meant is why are you with me and not Lena. I would think she would be able to cheer you up more" he said and i rolled my eyes.
"Really David" i said and he put his hands up in surrender.
"You're the one thinking that" he said and i sighed.
"I don't know i can't get my dad's words out of my mind and i really need too talk about it and not with her." i said and he groaned.
"Hon thats what girlfriends are for, sure you can talk to me, but you should talk to her." he said and i shook my head.
"I'm embarrassed of her… i love her so why am i so embarrassed of that" i said and he put his arm around my shoulders.
"Hey kid, you think i don't know that?" he asked and i looked up at him.
"I have had fake girlfriends before, i was so ashamed. I mean come on you were one of them" he said and i laughed.
"I screwed up so many relationships because of it. I'll tell you a secret Kyle never cheated on me, he ended it because i was pretending to be with you. I made the other part up" he admitted ashamed himself.
"Really?"
"Yes really. I thought he would take me being an ass because i thought he knew i was scared of my parents finding out. He did know and he even said he would have been fine with you being my fake girlfriend for a while but he said he couldn't be in a relationship with someone who didn't talk too him. I've never regretted something so much." he said.
"So yeah i know you're embarrassed of her and i know it's hard to say that but trust me kid don't screw up like i did." he said and i can tell he's enjoying this mentor thing he has going for him. He's called me kid twice, how weird.
"Thank you" i said and he smiled at me.
"Now don't screw this up i've put a lot of effort in you two. Don't disappoint me. It won't look good if i failed my first job of playing cupid" he said and i laughed.
"And the old David is back, the mentor thing was a little weird" i said and he laughed.
"Hey i'm your mentor, you're gay cupid and you're gay best would you do without me?" he said and i laughed.
"Bye gay cupid i will get you a oversized diaper and arrow" i said and he laughed. I left he's right i can't screw this up.
Hey let me know what you think. Only one or two more chapters before i skip like 18 years. I have everything figured out, i think, except how Stefs last name became Foster without her marrying Mike. Didn't think that though when i started this story whoops.
