Chapter Five
1109 Words
What the hell? Who the fudge set my alarm clock at six??.
“Wake up sleepy arse”. Kevin opened my room door with a mug of coffee in his hand.
Kevin never knocks my door before opening.
I threw my pillow at him. And mumbled sleepily.
“Get out. It's just past six.” I said in a sleep induced voice.
“Nuh uh, get out of bed right now. Except you want to take a twenty minutes walk to Kurt's house.” He said amusement leaving his voice.
I sighed and got up from my bed, he walked out of my room. I went to my bathroom. My hair looks like a bird's nest and my breath reeked of alcohol.
I don't drink but don't give me red wine or champagne.
Mama goes a little bit crazy..
I brushed my teeth took a shower and got into my pink furry bath robe. And went to the kitchen.
I'm welcomed by a half n***d Kevin cooking. Well half n***d as in his boxers and shirtless.
Showing sun tanned Demi-god body and a nice cheliesd six packs.
Any normal girl would go crazy at the sight. But not this girl.
Kevin was two years older than me and I've known him all my life, plus i never saw Kevin in that light and I'm sure he doesn't see me that way too.
“What you making??. Smells good.” I said breathing in the scent
Kevin was a good cook. My mama taught him good.
“Egg and bacon with toast. Hope you're hungry.”
I heard my phone text tone. Which is weird cuz no one texts me except Kevin.
Going to back to my room, I picked up my phone from my nightstand.
It was from an unknown number that read.
Unknown number: hey Tori it's Mrs Lilly. Wondering if you could come in a little bit early?.
Me: sure thing Mrs Lilly be there by seven.
Unknown number: thanks Star See you soon.
Putting my phone down a thousand questions spinning around my head.
How did she get my number?
Why'd she call me star?
What's that her texting me or was it Kurt?.
“Hey. Kevin said from my door.
I almost jumped out of my skin. My phone hitting the floor.
Don't get a heart attack on me”
“Kevin Linn Harper I'm going to kill you and make it look like an accident .” I said in a high pitched voice.
“Who texted you?.”
“Mrs Lilly. Could you drop me at your boss house, Mrs Lilly said to come over a little bit early”.
Picking up my phone I look at the time it was. Six-thirty. A long thin line stretched across the screen.
“Keeeevvin!!! You owe me a new phone”. I said after him as he walked out my room.
Going over to my wardrobe. I picked out a short flowing yellow dress, black flats and Kevin's black leather jacket.
Now for my hair and makeup. My hair has always been a problem when going out. Being an half cast ain't easy.
Yes, I'm biracial.
The old man I never knew is black.
My black curly hair is a major problem I got to deal with every day.
Pulling my hair up I secured it with a band. That's done with.
For my makeup I went with a clear sheen lipstick. Yup, I'm done with my make up.
Walking out of my room. Kevin was done and waiting for me.
“Won't you have breakfast?. ”He looked at the kitchen ceramic counter top that had my breakfast.
“I'm gonna have something at the house. Am already late as it is.” I said grabbing my keys, picking my purse and locking the door out on my way.
The drive there was short. Kinda.
Since we lived five neighbourhood away from the mansion.
I kissed Kevin on the cheek and got out of the car. Walked up to the gate.
“Morning star.” I heard Luke say as I approached his post.
Luke is a huge guy probably in his mid-thirties with bulging biceps, ice cold blue eyes and his blonde hair was cut in a military burr cut. With a face that looks like it's received it's fair share of punches and a broken nose.
I would bet my last penny and say he had served in the army.
“Morning Luke. I said. My name is Tori and not star.” I said with a hint of warn tone in my voice.
Why is everyone calling me star??. I thought to myself.
I walked in to the compound and saw that Kurt was still around.
His car was still in the driveway.
I climbed up the majestic stairs and into the second floor to meet baby Adrian. Opening his room door I'm met with Kurt in suit pants and no shirts holding Adrian.
This was a dangerous sight.
Without realising what I was doing I surveyed him from the head to toe.
A good six-four. Broad shoulders. Big arms. Biceps bulging, plainly
Visible. A nice amount of chest hair sprawled across his chest. He was surprisingly tan. His thick tawny hair curled about his neck and ears. He needed a hair cut.
A well chilsed six packs sprawled across his snowboard for a stomach.
God this guy is ripped.
Am I drooling?
“Don't you know how to knock?” Kurt barked at me.
Even Adrian seemed shocked at his father.
Colour drained from my face at his question or should I say he barked.
How did he go from cool boss to jerk boss.
Seeing how shocked I was he smiled and apologise.
“I'm sorry you just caught me off guard.” He said still grinning. All the anger leaving his voice.
“Good morning star.” He flashing me his i'm-sorry-i'm-a-jerk smile.
Yeah I got name for smiles.
“I'm sorry I should have knocked.” I apologised sincerely.
“Good morning boss and please stop calling me star. My name is Victoria Ella Williams.” I said in frustration.
He just smiled and handed Adrian to me and then walked out of the room.
“Adrian your father is annoying.” I said kissing him on the cheeks.
He just sent me the sweetest smile ever.
How could I stay mad when there's a bundle of joy in my arms.
“Come on let's go meet Mrs Lilly.”"
I said kissing his fore head.
