Chapter Four
Ebony awoke at 10:30 and she was in a state of panic. She had to shower, pick out a outfit, and do her nails. She started off with picking out an outfit. She grabbed a pair of blue stretch jeans, a white tank top, and a pink fishnet top. She then jumped into the shower, and got out in 10 minutes flat. When she looked at the clock after she got into her room and it was 10:47. She still had enough time to get dressed, style her hair, and go get her nails done. At 11:54, she had left from the nail shop and was ready to go pick Bray up. She picked up her cell to call him and tell him she was on her way. "Hello?" Bray answered the phone. "Hey, Bray, it's Ebony. I am on my way okay"? Bray paused for a second. "Okay, I'll see ya when you get here". Ebony smiled "Alright, bye". Bray responded with "bye" and then she hung up the phone.
Ebony pulled into the driveway of a brick house with white shutters. She honked the horn twice. Then out stepped Bray. He was wearing a pair of blue jeans, and a dark blue t-shirt with "Rancid" written on it. "Hey, you", Bray said as he got into the car. They drove to Salene's house, which was right down the street from Ebony. "I just need to pick something up really quick. I'll only be a minute". Ebony got out and ran up to Salene's door. The door opened and Ebony walked inside. "Quick Salene, Bray wants me to show him around the city and I have no idea where to take him, I mean I have passes to go to the football stadium but I don't know how to get there". Salene laughed at her. "Eb, you told this boy that you could show him around the city and yet you had no place in mind"? Ebony looked at Salene, obviously not amused. "Are you going to help or not"? Salene searched her room for a pamphlet of the city sites. "Here, take this. It shows you all of the worthwhile things here. And if he asks what you need it for, just say that you need it for directions, okay"? Ebony thought about it, before taking the booklet. "Thanks Sal, you are a life saver, and I don't mean the candy". They both broke out laughing. "Now, go, have a good time. Get to know him. And just be yourself". Salene said as Ebony walked out of the front door.
She got back into the car and sped off. "Well, I figured since you like football, I'd take you to the football field. The Dolphins are practicing there today because they're field is getting renovated and ours is the closest to them". Bray looked at Ebony in disbelief, "Are you serious? Damn, you are an awesome girl"! Bray gave Ebony a little peck on the cheek. Ebony pulled into the parking lot of the Liverpool Field. She gave him the passes that her dad had given her that morning. Bray took the pass and hung it around his neck. When they got onto the field, Bray nearly lost his cool. The head coach announced to the team that Ebony Reynolds was there to watch and meet them. Ebony pulled him aside, "Don't do that. I don't like people being nice to me because of who my father is, alright"? The coach apologized, but the damage was already done. So the coach let Bray practice with the players, while Ebony watched in the stands. At 2:30, they decided to leave and Bray got an official jersey from the coach. "Man, that was awesome, Ebony. Thanks. I have never had this much fun since I would play with my dad when I was younger". Bray and Ebony got into the car a drove off.
The party was approaching and Ebony had taken Bray to the aquarium, football field, zoo, and the she took him back home. "Well, did you have fun"? Ebony asked. "Of course I did. I was with you, so I had a great time". Bray said that with a smile as his head slightly turned and looked at her. Ebony, couldn't hold her urge any longer. She leaned in and kissed Bray. They had a full make out session for 10 minutes until Ebony looked at her watch. "Oh, wow! I got to get home. I'll see you later on tonight, right"? Bray looked somewhat sad but then he answered her back, "Yeah, I can't wait to see you later". He leaned in and kissed her lightly. Ebony smiled when she drove off. Before she turned the corner she waved at Bray. Then she disappeared around the bend.
