Miss Independent


Chapter 25


Kaitlyn glared at Nick as she reached for the door. She opened it slowly and looked at her mother strangely who was playing with her shirt. “Mom?”

“Oh, had to adjust. Katy you look so beautiful,” her mom said as she grabbed Kaitlyn‘s shoulders pulling her into a big hug.

“Hi mom,” Kaitlyn replied not too enthused because she used the nickname that Kaitlyn hated.

Kaitlyn’s mom pulled back and looked at Nick while he smiled nervously back at her. “Look at you, aren’t you just the handsomest man I’ve ever seen,” her mom said pulling him into a hug, “And big and broad. Kaitlyn sure knows how to pick em’,” she replied pulling back but still holding onto his arms, she then reached up and pinched his cheek.

“It’s nice to meet you,” Nick said smiling as he shook his head a little.

“Call me Marie,” She said as she grabbed her bag and walked into the apartment.

Kaitlyn smiled at her mom as she closed the door behind them and then followed her into the living room.

“Kaylee, it’s been so long since I’ve seen you too.” Her mother said as she embraced Kaylee in a hug.

“Mrs. Anderson, how have you been feeling?”

“I’m fantastic,” She replied smiling as she sat down on the couch.

Kaylee smiled as she sat down across from the couch.

“Kaylee you feel like you are putting some weight on.”

Kaylee looked at her Kaitlyn’s mom and then at everyone else in the room, “Really?”

“Not a bad thing dear. Kaitlyn could use some meat on her hips.” Her mom said looking up at Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn sat down next to her mother and then Nick sat down next to her and immediately put his hand around Kaitlyn’s shoulders. Kaitlyn took a deep breath as she looked over at her mom.

“So Nick, tell me all about you cutie,” She leaned over to Kaitlyn, “I can’t believe how gorgeous he is. Your father never looked that good.”

Kaitlyn rolled her eyes and leaned her head back.

“Well, I’m a singer.”

“Oh really, how wonderful. You’ll have to sing for me sometime, my first love was a musician. I think it runs in the family,” She said laughing nudging Kaitlyn in the side.

“Must,” Nick replied grinning at Kaitlyn who in return just sighed.

“What about your family?”

“Well, I have three younger sisters and one younger brother. The two youngest are twins.”

“Wow, well if you and Kaitlyn ever have children we won’t have to worry about twins.”

Kaitlyn looked over at her mother with wide eyes.

Nick shook his head laughing as he looked over at Kaylee who was highly amused as well.

“Mom you’re jumping the gun a little here.”

“I know but you two are just too cute together and I can imagine how beautiful you’re babies would be.”

“Ok, next subject.”

“Kaitlyn doesn’t like to talk about that stuff. You know sex.”

Nick looked at Kaitlyn her face was turning red rapidly.

“I don’t know why, it’s not like I don’t know she’s had it. I’m not stupid and we are all grown adults.”

“Mom,” Kaitlyn said half whining.

“Alright, fine Katy I won’t talk about it anymore.”

“Thanks.”

“Katy?” Nick asked curiously.

“She didn’t tell you about my nickname for her?”

Nick shook his head.

“Nothing too special about it just something I decided to call her and well I haven’t heard any complaints so I’ve stuck with it. Do you have any pet names for each other?”

“No,” Kaitlyn replied shaking her head.

“I call her pumpkin.”

“Oh, how cute. You are so cute,” Her mother replied smiling at Nick.

…:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::…

So, my mother is here. She is totally smitten with Nick. How crazy is that? Huh? That doesn’t seem right, does it? Ugh…

And Nick is just eating it right up. He loves it and you can so tell because he knows it’s annoying me. Prick. I just want to smack him upside his big fat head. Ok, so I have just a tad bit of animosity toward the boy right now. Well, do you blame me? I think it’s kind of stupid for me to be pissed at him and for the things I said to him but… but… what? Why must all boys be…I can’t think of the word. Actually I can think of a million words but we won’t go there.

Kaylee is acting weird too. Like there’s something up with her and she’s holding back of something. Mental note to self; remember to ask Kaylee about what’s going on with her.

…:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::…

“I’m hungry I’m ready to go somewhere to eat,”

Kaitlyn looked over at her mom and sighed.

“I could eat,” Nick said looking at Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn glared at him and then looked back at her mom smiling, “You get to choose.”

“Hmm… everything sounds so good these days. How about we go to oh my I don’t know.”

“Mom,”

“What is around here?”

Nick shrugged and said, “Everything.”

“The Pasta House,” Her mom said smiling widely as she rubbed her hands together.

Kaitlyn looked at Kaylee and asked, “Are you going to come too?”

Kaylee looked up from playing with her hands and just shook her head no and then looked back down at her hands.

Kaitlyn looked at her oddly and said, “We’ll bring you back a doggie bag.”

Nick stood up and stretched a little, his shirt coming up slightly showing just a tiny bit of his stomach.

Kaitlyn watched him and stared at the tiny patch of skin showing, images of him shirtless going through her head again. She shook her head and looked over at her mother who was staring at Nick as well. She sighed as she stood up and said, “I’m going to go change my shirt.”

“You look fine dear,” Her mother said while Nick nodded.

Kaitlyn didn’t say anything as she made her way into her room.

“I think your mom likes Nick too,” Kaylee said laughing a few moments later as she walked into her room.

Kaitlyn turned around scared, “God you scared me I thought you were Nick or something,” Kaitlyn said as she quickly put her shirt on.

“Yeah I can go get him if you’d like.”

“Shut up.”

“You still want his nuts.”

“Yeah,” Kaitlyn said sighing.

Kaylee’s eyes got wide and she said, “The truth comes out.”

“Shut up you fuck ass.”

“Fuck ass?”

“Leave me alone.”

Kaylee started laughing hysterically.

“Suck a fuck.”

“Suck a fuck? Tell me exactly how one might suck a fuck.”

“Shut up stop it leave me alone.”

Kaylee continued to laugh and said, “It’s cool I wouldn’t mind having his nuts either yo. He looks good. The freshly fucked look agrees with him.”

Kaitlyn looked at Kaylee with her hands on her hips. “Thanks for rubbing it in some more.”

“What?”

“What?” Kaitlyn mocked Kaylee.

“You’re jealous.”

“Of course I’m jealous. Some random no name groupie got what… I want.”

“You know I bet he can hear you.”

“My mother is in there I highly doubt it she’s probably trying to play with him.”

Kaylee put her hand over her mouth as she started to laugh.

“No pun intended.”

“Sure. Anyway, he knows you’re jealous. It’s like written all over your face you know.”

Kaitlyn sat down on her bed rolling her eyes. “Yeah,” She replied sighing.

“Well at least we’ve passed the denial stage.”

Kaitlyn flipped Kaylee off and then stood up and walked out of her room.

“Bout time,” Nick said grinning at Kaitlyn.

Kaitlyn shot him a dirty look and the finger as she grabbed her purse.

“Kaitlyn, I saw that,” Her mother said as they walked out of the apartment.

Kaitlyn rolled her eyes as she closed the door behind her.

…:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::…

Have you ever felt like your life was being controlled by someone else? I’m not talking about God, no way not going in that direction. Just like in general do you feel like you don’t or can’t control what’s going on in your life? Like it’s a movie or something? Does that sound totally psychotic or does it make sense? Just a thought. Sometimes I feel like that ya know, I remember when I was younger I used to think giants controlled us and when we drove they like pushed us around. Yeah I know I was a weird child but whatever that’s besides the point.

So personally I think I’d much rather have teeth pulled then go out to dinner with Nick and my mother. Because my mother is smitten by Nick, pfft. Nick is enjoying every damn minute of this just because he can piss me off and for some reason he likes to do that. And ugh, it’s just not working out the way I had planned and that pisses me off even more. Everything has to go my way. That’s just the way it is. Plain and simple, my way or the highway. Psh. Ok, but you get the idea I don’t like it when things don’t go my way. Nope. Not at all. And with the looks of things right now, things will not being going my way because I’d like to knee Nick in the balls and make him cry like a girl. Yep.
