Too Nate we go
1504 Words
Quincy's P.O.V
“Have fun with Nate” my sister yelled.
Nate Thomas has been my boyfriend for two years now. I was supposed to be out of town with my parents, but I decided to stay home with my sister.
I've always done what Mom and Dad said. Even now, at twenty-three, I still follow every rule, unlike Julia.
My sister and I are complete opposites. She's outgoing and spontaneous, dresses well, her makeup, nails, and hair are always on point, and she is hardly ever at home.
Many people mistake Julia Adams as the eldest daughter, she is the epitome of a popular girl. Julia changes boyfriends like underwear and with her looks. Who wouldn't?
Julia is eighteen years old and is doing her last year in high school. We share the same color of hair, baby blonde like mom, she has my mother's brown eyes and me?
My father's ember-colored ones. She is built like a goddess and, if you haven't guessed by now, she rebels a lot.
So, when I told her I was going on vacation with Mom and Dad again, she simply told me to stop being like a frumpy old lady and start to act my age.
“ One day, sissy, you will regret these old lady clothes, these huge glasses, and those ugly shoes. Live a little sissy, we only live once. ” Julia said.
“ That's why I'm going sightseeing with our parents. They only live once too, and I want to spend and cherish every moment with them, ” I said.
“Geez, did you ever wonder why our parents only ever had one more kid after you?”
“Because maybe they just wanted two kids.”
“No! Sissy because you kept on c**k blocking them! ”
“Julia, mind your tongue” I whispered.
While looking around for my parents, they hated foul mouths… I, on the other hand, mainly cussed in silence.
“Fine. Go on then, but don't say I didn't warn you, I am sure Nate will find entertainment elsewhere. ”
“What does that mean?”
“ You're a twenty-three-year-old virgin, dating a guy for two years who isn't a virgin. You're the math geek, not me ”
“ He wouldn't, Nate's different. Okay! And you talk like someone who has experience. ”
“Oh sissy I have loads.” She said, winking at me as she walked away…
We leave tomorrow, but for some reason, Julia’s words bothered me.
Nate wouldn't cheat on me, right? He told me he would wait until I was ready. I made up my mind that we would do it on his birthday next week when I get back from vacation.
I didn't tell him that though I wanted to surprise him, Julia might be younger than me, but I almost always took her advice. Do I stay? Las Vegas would also be there, right? Maybe someday Nate and I can go to Las Vegas…
I headed off to my parent's room and knocked softly on their bedroom door.
“Come inside, Quin,” Dad said.
“How did you know it was me?” I asked with a smile. Taking a seat on the bed.
“ You are the only one that knocks in this house. Did you need something honey? ”
“I will not be joining you guys on the trip”
“That's okay, Quincy.”
“That's it?” I was a little thrown off guard, he didn't even ask why or what I meant.
“You are old enough to make your own choice honey.”
“Okay, but what about the trip? You can't get a r****d on my ticket.”
“Oh, your aunt wanted to bring her friend along. We told her you'd be coming, but now it's sorted. I'll let her know you canceled.”
“Okay then, good night.”
Dad must have seen it. I felt a bit off.“Honey, it's not that I'm happy you canceled, your mom and I love having you with us.”
“It's okay dad, I'll make sure Julia doesn't burn the house down.”
I left the room with a sigh. I got replaced fairly quickly. Julia sat on the couch in the living room watching some drama series.
“You look bummed.” She said when I took a seat next to her.
“Just told dad I won't be joining them.”
“You did?” Julia asked, surprised.
“Yeah.”
“Then what's with the face?”
“He replaced me.”
“Whatever do you mean?”
Great. She's laughing at me.
“He asked Aunt Jamie’s friend to fill in my place.”
“You know they couldn't cancel it, Quin,”
“I know.”
“Yay, now we can have bonding time.” She said way too cheerfully.
“Okay sure, I am going to call Nate.”
“Wait, don't tell him you canceled.”
“Why shouldn't I?”
“Surprise him at his place tomorrow.”
Sounds like a good plan. I am sure he will be happy to know that I didn't go. He had been upset that I was always ready to leave but never stayed to spend time with him.
And that brings me to today. First thing this morning, Julia dragged me out of bed and pushed me into the shower, which she completely invaded.
She checked to see if my lady parts were clean-shaven, not that Nate and I were going to do anything. I was waiting for his birthday.
She did my hair and put on some lip gloss. She wanted to give me a complete makeover, but I refused.
If my best friend Lacy was here now she would demand that I wear some blush, that reminded me I had to give her a call later. Lacy and I have been friends for a very long time and, like Julia, she was the complete opposite of me. Some even say she should work for Playboy.
Yes, she is pretty, but they mean it in a slutty way. I still love her though. Julia, on the other hand, she doesn't like Lacy. She says, “That girl seems so sly, Quin. She looks like the type of gal that would hit your hand in the ash and think jack s**t about it.”
Lacy hasn't done anything wrong to me, so I'm not one to judge. She is beautiful. Chocolate brown hair cut into a bob, a pretty nice figure, black-like eyes, and she is a bit dark in skin tone, but it's so smooth.
After getting into my car, I decided to call Nate to hear where he was so that I didn't end up going to his house and his not home.
That would ruin the surprise.
Phone Conversion
“Babe, god I miss you so much. Have you landed yet?” Nate asked when he answered
“Hi, I miss you too. And yes I have. What are you up to? You sound like you're at the gym.”
“I… uhm yeah you know, I was at the gym but just got home. Can I call you after my shower?”
“I'll be waiting.”
“Cool”. Then he hung up.
Too Nate we go!
I decided to park my car a few houses down from Nate's house just in case… and walked the rest of the way.
The driveway was empty. Only Nate’s car was there. His parents must be out or something. I pushed open the front door. weirdly, Nate always blasted music when he was alone.
I let myself in and shut the door behind me…
Oh… my…god… is he watching porn?
I laughed softly to myself.
Maybe it's just a s*x scene from a movie he left on.
I reached his room and as I was about to open the door and that's when I heard her… I could never mistake that voice for anyone else.
It was high-pitched as always… could this be what I think it is? I stood frozen, not sure what to do. I could push the door open and make a fool of myself. They could just be hanging out.
But he told me he was going to shower and now that I think about it, he was kind of in a rush… or it could be that something else was going on here….
Did I even want to know? Hell yes, I did, but could I handle whatever I found behind that door? The longer I stood there the more sense it made, about what was happening inside.
Julia! She would know what to do. With shaking hands, I dialed her number…
“Shhh just listen,” I said when she answered.
I let her listen, then took the phone back to my ear.
“I'll be there in 10 minutes,”she said before hanging up.
