Chance was getting everything ready for tonight. Its been awhile since having people over. Eve was helping him get the snacks ready. Nala walked into the kitchen and smiled at Eve. She saw how happy her dad was and she never wanted to take that from him. Especially if she was leaving to New York soon.
Her dad won't be alone.
"Kris is bringing the pizzas and AJ is bringing the beer.", Chance said.
"Do you really have to invite AJ and Joe?", Nala asked.
"Yes, their my friends", Chance said.
Nala grabbed a chip out of the bowl.
"Is everything ok?", Eve asked her.
Her dad was busy putting the ice bag in the freezer.
"I just don't trust AJ anymore", Nala whispered.
"Did he do something to you or say something that made you uncomfortable?", Eve asked.
"Kind of, but he's dad's friend and he hasn't done anything since so", Nala shrugged.
"If he does anything else, tell us. We can handle it", Eve said.
Nala nodded.
"I'm going to get the grill going", Chance said.
The girls nodded. Once he stepped out, Eve looked at Nala.
"Does this have anything to do with your teacher?", Eve asked.
Nala sat up.
"I saw you two leaving the clinic a few days ago.", Eve said.
"Does my dad know?", Nala asked.
"No. I think it would be better if he heard it from you", Eve said.
Nala nodded.
"You do realize that its against the law to date him? He's your teacher and older than you", Eve said.
"Trust me, when this started, I wanted to stop it. I fell in love with him and now, I'm pregnant", Nala said.
Eve sighed.
"Nala, if the school board finds out, he'll be fired and worse, sent to jail", Eve said.
"I know, we both know. We plan on telling my dad tomorrow. It's going to get harder to hide this", Nala said.
She opened her sweater and showing her small bump.
"Will you be there tomorrow?", Nala asked.
Eve looked at her and smiled. She knew Nala was going to need someone on her side. She nodded.
"Yes", Eve said.
Kris had invited Robert to poker night. He had seen him and he looked distracted and exhausted.
"So are you finally going to tell me what's up?", Kris asked on their way to Chance's house.
"Just some things going on with Sabrina. She's been acting out lately and I don't know where I went wrong.", Robert said.
"Well, what happened?", Kris asked.
"She's been dating an older guy", Robert said.
"How old?", Kris asked.
"I would say around your age, maybe a little older", Robert said.
"Really?", he asked.
Robert nodded.
"How old is she?", Kris asked.
"Almost eighteen", Robert said.
Kris nodded.
"Look, I know I can't stop her once she turns eighteen but as long as she's still in school and under my roof, she's not allowed to date him", Robert said.
"What's going to stop her from seeing him behind your back? If it was Kathan I would get to know the guy. She's smart and knows how to handle herself. As long as he's not like sixty I'm good", Kris said.
Robert laughed.
Roman and Mark had arrived first. Bringing over more snacks and drinks.
"Hey", Chance said, shaking hands with both men.
They walked in and looked around. He walked them into the kitchen.
"Foods ready, so help yourselves. Nala and Eve went to the movies with Kathan.", Chance said.
Roman and Mark served themselves. The doorbell rang and Chance went to go and answer. Seth was standing there with Dean and Randy.
"Hey, we brought more beer", Dean said.
They walked into the kitchen as the guys said hello to each other. Again the doorbell rang and Chance went to answer. This time Kris and Robert walked in. Robert stopped as soon as he saw Seth.
"You", Robert said, glaring at Seth.
Everyone looked at them.
"Look, I don't want any trouble. I was invited, but if this is a problem then I can go", Seth said.
"What's going on? How do you two know each other?", Chance asked.
"Is this the guy dating Sabrina?", Kris asked.
Robert nodded. Seth sighed. Chance looked at Seth.
"Your dating his daughter? She's a student at the school", Chance said.
"Not my student. I've never met her before till a few weeks ago.", Seth defended.
Seth looked at Robert.
"Maybe I should go", Seth said, about to leave.
"No", Robert said.
Seth looked at him.
"You should stay. I like making you uncomfortable", Robert said.
Seth swallowed. AJ and Joe walked in next, setting the case of beer down.
"So, let's play", AJ said, giving a look to Roman.
"Is Glen coming?", Chance asked.
"No, one of his kids had a game out of town", Mark said.
Chance nodded.
They had just finished with their movie. Eve said she had to use the restroom, so Kathan and Nala went to play the games the theater had while they waited.
"Kaye, Nala", both girls turned to see Sabrina and Serena.
They were with their siblings.
"What are you two doing here?", Sabrina asked.
"Eve brought us since my dad and her brother are having poker night at my house", Nala said.
"Poker night?", Sabrina asked.
"Yeah, I think my brother took your dad to it", Kathan said.
"The same poker night as Seth", Sabrina said.
Each girl realized how bad it would be if something didn't go right tonight. Either their dad would kill Seth or he would end up liking him by the end of the night. Sabrina hoped he ended up liking him. She missed Seth.
Through the entire game, Robert kept glaring at Seth. Seth tried really hard to not give in.
"Hey can I ask everyone a question?", Robert asked.
"Yeah", the all guys answered.
"How would you feel if your daughter or sister was dating her teacher?", Robert asked.
Roman and Mark looked at each other. Chance chuckled.
"I would probably flip, but she's almost eighteen and a smart kid. What's going to stop her from seeing him once she is out of school", Chance said.
"So you would be ok with it?", Robert asked.
"No. Especially because he's her teacher", Chance said.
Roman swallowed and shifted in his seat.
"Kathan can date older guys, I've told her that. A teacher, I don't know how comfortable I would be", Kris said.
Robert looked at Seth and raised a brow. Seth set his cards down and looked at Robert.
"Alright look. Yes, I've been seeing your daughter, but I love her. She's the first good thing to happen to me in a long time. She made me a better man and these men here, can agree with me", Seth said.
Roman, Randy, Dean, and Mark nodded.
"He's a good man, with a good head on his shoulders. Unlike Jason Jordan", Dean said.
Seth sent Dean a look. Sabrina hadn't told her parents about what he did. Robert looked confused.
"What about JJ?", Robert asked.
Seth sighed.
"She didn't want you to know", Seth said.
"What about JJ?", Robert asked again.
"Just tell him Seth.", Dean said.
When he did. Dean looked at Robert.
"Look, I know I just met you, but you have a right to know. JJ has been running his mouth off saying how he slept with your daughter and how she's a big", Dean stopped.
He cleared his throat.
"You get my point. Anyway, he humiliated her. Used her.", Dean said.
"She's scared to go anywhere near him or his friends.", Seth said.
"Does this have anything to do with what happened to Serena a few days ago?", Robert asked Dean.
Dean nodded.
"Yes", Dean said.
"Ever since he found out who his daddy is, he's changed. He use to be a good kid", Mark said.
"Wait, so your dating his daughter?", AJ asked Seth.
Seth looked from AJ to Robert. Then he looked down at his cards sadly.
"I was", Seth said softly.
AJ chuckled. He looked at Mark and Roman.
"And here Joe and I were thinking you two were the only ones", AJ said.
Everyone looked at Mark and Roman.
"What's are you talking about AJ?", Kris asked.
AJ smirked, before looking at Kris.
"I'm talking about how those two, are also dating seniors at the school", AJ said.
"What?", Chance asked.
Roman sat up and set his cards down. Mark did the same thing. AJ took his phone out and handed it to Chance.
"Chance", Roman said softly.
Chance took the phone and looked at the picture of his daughter leaving the clinic with Roman. He changed the photo to find one of them kissing.
"What the fuck is this?", Chance asked, still scrolling.
"Let me explain", Roman said.
Chance looked up.
"Please do because I am so fucking confused right now", he said calmly.
"Nala and I have been seeing each other since winter break ended. I love her and", Chance stood, knocking his chair back.
"I want you out of my house. Now", he said.
Mark set his hand on Roman's shoulder.
"Lets go", Mark said.
Roman nodded.
"Wait, you don't think your getting off that easy. Do you Mark?", Joe said.
Joe looked Kris.
"He's been fucking Kaye", Joe said.
Kris looked at Mark and stood.
"We planned to tell you tomorrow. She had a dinner set up for us", Mark said.
"A dinner? You think things would change because the setting was different? She's seventeen", Kris shouted.
"I love her", Mark said.
Kris chuckled and shook his head.
"Stay away from Kathan", Kris said.
"I think it's time we go now.", Dean said.
He pushed each man out the door. Dean looked at Robert.
"I'm dating Serena.", he said, before walking out.
Robert's jaw dropped.
