Chapter 3
Tina's POV
Monday afternoon, I was in my closet looking for something to wear tonight, I had spent an hour looking and hadn't found anything that looked good enough, that's when Avey came in. He walked up next to me looking at the pile of clothes, pants and shoes that I had thrown around.
"What are you doing?". He asked.
"I'm looking for something to wear tonight". I said blowing out a sigh of frustration. "But I can't find anything". Avey then searched through my rack of clothes and pulled out one of my outfits. It was a black halter top with a buckle accent and matching low rise black pants.
"Don't you think that's to..revealing?". I said raising an eyebrow, avey just rolled his eyes.
"Trust me if you wear this, John's gonna think your totally hot". I laughed at his comment.
"Ok, I'll wear it". I said as I set the outfit on my bed. "So, what are we having tonight?". A year ago I had taught avey how to cook a little, so far he can make pizza and spaghetti, so I figured it was either one of the two.
"Jenise helped me make hamburgers, your having that". He said as he walked out, I just shrugged and followed him out.
That Night
It was around 7:50pm, John called and said he would be here by 8:00, I had just put on the outfit avey had picked out, the top had created a lot of cleavage for me while the pants made my ass bigger than it really was. I had took a shower and put on my butterscotch lotion that I bought, I didn't really need to put on make-up so I just put on my usual clear lip gloss, I had slipped on some high-heels and black hoop earrings. I stood in the bathroom looking at myself in the mirror, avey was right the outfit was perfect, I was standing there so long I didn't even hear the doorbell ring.
"Tina, John's here!". Avey yelled from downstairs. I took a couple of deep breaths as I heard someone walk in and the door close.
John's POV
I was really nervous as I knocked on the door to Christina's house, I wasn't really dressed up. I had on a Lakers jersey with a matching cap that I put on backwards, I wore my usual shorts and white sneakers. Then the door opened and I saw Avey, he had on an orange shirt that read "To Hard To Resist" in black letters, he had on some shorts as well and some orange timberland's.
"Tina, John's here!". He yelled as he let me in and closed the door behind me. Me and Avey stood at the head of the stairs as she came down, she nearly took my breath away. She had this short black top on that really showed a lot of cleavage and these low rise black pants that brought out her curves.
"You look hot, I-I-I mean stunning". I said embarrassed.
"You don't look half bad yourself". She said as she reached the bottom of the stairs.
"Come on, your foods getting cold". Avey said as he guided us into the dining room, sitting there on the table were two hamburgers with some fries and coke. Christina and me took a seat, while avey went into the living room.
"Did he make this himself?". I asked as I ate a fry.
"Jenise helped him, I've been trying to teach him how to cook, so far he can make pizza and spaghetti". She said as she grabbed the ketchup.
Tina's POV
Me and John were sitting at the table eating our dinner that avey had gave us, I had grabbed the ketchup bottle because he forgot to put some on it. Thing was the ketchup wouldn't come out, I gave it a few hard squeezes, nothing, I gave it another hard squeeze, nothing. I gave it one more squeeze using all my strength and it squirted out, but not on the burger, it went all over John's face. I couldn't help but laugh.
"So...you think that's funny?". He said with a smile wiping some of it off.
"I'm so sorry". I said in between my laughs. "I didn't mean to". Then John grabbed the mustard and held it so it was pointing at me.
"Well I didn't mean to do this". He said as he squirted the mustard all over my face, neck and chest. I quickly grabbed my glass of coke and tossed it on him getting it all over his jersey. He grabbed his glass and threw it on me landing right on my chest, John laughed at the expression on my face when the ice touched my skin, it was freaking freezing.
"Your gonna pay for that". I said as I grabbed the ketchup bottle, I quickly started squirting it on him while he kept squirting the mustard on me.
An hour later I had mustard, soda and ketchup all over my hair, face, neck, chest, stomach and pants. John had it all over his hair, face, jersey and shorts. We walked over to the sink, I grabbed a hand towel and wet it up.
"I'll get that for you". I said as I began to wipe off his face, as I started to wipe off his nose I saw he was looking at me, smiling, I smiled back.
"I'm gonna go take a shower". I said as I walked out of the kitchen and upstairs.
After Tina had cleaned up she slipped into her sports bra and sweat pants, she was going downstairs to watch t.v., the Child's Play marathon was about to come on. She had walked past Avey's room where John and him were playing video games until he spotted her.
John's POV
As I was playing "Grand Theft Auto" with Avey I spotted Christina out of the corner of my eye as she walked past his room.
"Go down there with her". Avey said breaking me out of another trance.
"I don't wanna disturb her". I said as we set the game on pause.
"She's just gonna watch the Child's Play marathon". He said as he got up off his bed. "Go, go talk with her". He pulled me up and pushed me out the door.
"Ok, ok, I'll go, no need to push". I said as I walked downstairs, as I went into the living room I saw christina laying on the couch in her sports bra and sweat pants with a bowl of popcorn on her stomach watching the movie. She looked cute even when she's not wearing make-up and stuff. I took a deep breath and walked over towards her.
"Hey christina". I said as I sat down next to her, she looked up at me and smiled.
"Hey John I see you got clean up. I thought you were with avey". She said scooting over.
"Well I guess he wanted to go to bed, plus it's our date".
"True, true, I was just watching the Child's Play marathon, wanna watch it?".
"Sure, it's one of my favorite movies".
"Mine too". She said. "Want some popcorn?".
"Sure". I said as I took a handful. "Sorry about earlier".
"Oh it's ok". She said starting to laugh. "I actually had fun". After 2 hours of talking and watching the movies I had to go to the bathroom.
"Um Christina, where's your bathroom?". I asked as I got up.
"Across from Avey's room". She said. As I walked upstairs I could of sworn I heard crying, so I decided to check on Avey, as I walked inside I saw that he was indeed crying.
"What's wrong Avey?". I asked as I knelt beside his bed.
"I had a nightmare". He quietly said.
Tina's POV
As I was in the middle of Child's Play 2 I could of sworn I heard talking, so I decided to go up stairs and see what was going on. As I got closer to Avey's room I could hear John and him speaking.
"What was the dream about?". I heard John ask.
"Chucky". Avey said.
"Oh don't worry, chucky's just a robot, he's not gonna hurt you, besides your taller than him. But if he tries to hurt you, I'll beat him up". He said.
"Thanks John". Avey said. I quietly looked inside and watched as avey gave john a hug, I smiled.
"If your still a little scared I got something for you". John said as he reached under avey's bed and pulled out a teddy bear dressed all in black.
"Wow an Undertaker bear, thanks". Avey said as he hugged him again.
"Your welcome little man, now get some sleep". He said as he got up. He walked out of his room jumping when he saw me.
"Oh, I didn't know you were there". He said closing the door.
"Thank you for what you did, usually if he had a nightmare he would have to sleep with me. I could never get him to do that". I said as we walked downstairs.
"Ah it's nothing really". He said as we reached the door. "I should be going, it's getting late".
"Yeah, I had a nice time with you". I said as I opened the door for him.
"Me too, it wasn't exactly your normal date, but I had fun". He said as he opened his arms to hug me as I walked into him. John felt so warm when he wrapped his strong arms around me, I didn't want to let go.
As John left I closed the door and went into the living room to turn off the t.v. As I went upstairs I stopped by avey's room to check on him, when I walked inside he was partly awake.
"You ok avey?". I asked leaning on the door jam.
"Yeah, is john gone?". He asked sitting up.
"Mm-hm". I said as I walked over and knelt beside him.
"Did you have fun?".
"Yeah, I did". I said as I rubbed the top of his head.
"I'm glad, well goodnight tina". He said laying back down.
"Goodnight baby brother". I said as I kissed him on his cheek and left to go to bed.
