I'll Deal With It Tomorrow

Celestia

"This still doesn't make any sense to me, like we're talking about the same man who showed up banging my door at two in the morning frantically pacing about as I told him where you were. Yet he still cheated?"

"I know, usually I would want to hear it from him but. He had pictures Lu, and they were the type that had the time and date in the corner and it sure as hell looked recent too. There was no photoshop from what I saw either. Pass me the bottle please?"

She passes me the bottle next to her and the thick bubbles move closer to me as she hands it over.

"Now, I definitely have to see those pictures. If he did cheat, I personally want to fuck him up with my heels."

"I took them with me after the incident so they're on the counter," I say as I pour myself another glass. "Alright, last glass for me then I'll get out of this bath, I don't wanna look like a prune later." I smile.

"Ha, you're gonna look like a prune eventually when you turn into a grandma." she laughs as she flicks her hand against the water at me.

"Can't be a grandma if I don't have any kids," I state taking a large downfall of wine.

"No! I who am I gonna be an auntie to then!"

"I don't know," I shrug and laugh. "Go find a child and claim them as your niece or nephew."

"You're no fun," she playfully pouts.

"We should have someone look at these, I know a person who is good with pictures and stuff like that, she can find out if they were photoshopped or not," states Lucy as she grimaces at the pictures in her hand.

"Thanks, I really hope they aren't real-"

There was a knock at her door and I get up from the floor and walk to the door to open it. It was Steph struggling to carry a few bags.

"Girl, let me help you with that," I say as I take a bag from her.

"Damn Steph, did you bring your entire kitchen or something?" laughs Lucy as she gets up to help us.

"Lol, no, I just bought large chips and sodas."

"Nice," I reply from the kitchen. I take out the drinks and open the first bag of chips taking that and a case of ginger ale back to the living room. I sit on the floor again and start to grab a few of the Doritos to stuff in my mouth.

"I just saw the pictures, and damn Ramon sucks ass for that," says Stephanie as she opens a ginger ale for herself.

"Exactly, we should go to his house right now and start burning his clothes on his balcony like Taylor Swift."

"I fully agree, let's go crazy on the asshole."

" Y'all are a mess." I giggle. "But, I don't know what I'm gonna do yet like he just met my mom and they're vibing and everything. She's staying with us right now current-"

My phone rings from the couch and I pick it up.

"Speak of the devil," I mutter as I answer the phone.

"Hi, mom,"

"Sweetie, where are you? Ramon said you weren't picking up your phone and he's just about ready to send every police station looking for you."

"I'm fine mom, I'm with Steph and Lu, we're having a girl's night."

"That's great, but why didn't you tell Ramon hon? He's really worried about you. I thought you'd be home so I could tell you that I had to leave, but you weren't there."

"Oh, so you're not at the house then?"

"No, I'm headed back home. But anyway, just don't forget to tell Ramon where you are, I know you can be forgetful sometimes."

"Oh, I didn't forget. I just found out that he cheated on me."

"He what? Ramon? He wouldn't. Just a few days ago we were talking about how he was head over heels for you. What happened?"

"My professor had pictures of him with other women that were recent. I honestly don't think he would cheat but then again his rep with women before me was a little, well, not so good so, it's fine though, I'm staying at Lu's until I want to go back but I wanna find out if it's true or not."

"Mm, I get it. Stubborn as always, just like your father." she sighs. "I hope they aren't true, I want my grandbabies."

"Mom!"

"Alright, alright. Just make sure that you don't get hurt okay? If he hurts you, you tell me immediately and I'll personally come to drag him."

"Yeah mom, I will. I gotta go now, love you."

"I love you too baby, stay safe."

I hang up the phone, shut it down, and then toss it back on the couch.

"I'm honestly over today."

"As you should be, you know, you've really grown when it comes to relationships ending badly. Look at you not giving a shit. I don't know whether to be worried, scared, or both." Lucy laughs.

"I just think it hasn't registered to my brain yet, give it time." I laugh back, stuffing more chips into my mouth.

"Well, we'll worry about that later, right now you worry about you and your wellbeing." perks up Steph.

"But I mean," I sigh as I think. "It's not like I'd believe Professor Finn over Ramon ya know, it's just that I'm a little uncertain about all this, and as I said before, I just wanna know if the pictures are fake or not cause they could be photoshopped and they could be old pictures and he could've changed the date on them just to make it look real. But I know for sure that if I went back home to talk to him I'm scared that it'll end in a fight and I don't want to fight with Ramon because I fucking love him so much I can't bear the thought of us not being together. I was already terrified that I'd never see him when Mike took me, and when I thought they'd take him away from me in court."

I look up and both Stephanie and Lucy were looking at each other like I was speaking nonsense.

"Wait, wait, wait. Back up."

"Did you just say that you loved him?"

"Yeah?"

"When did this happen? Girl, we need the tea!"

"I totally forgot to tell you! How could I! Okay, okay, so there was a day where I came back from class and he got me gifts, and then we went to this BDSM place that he owns and we literally had the best sex ever. And then in the morning, we went to Virginia with his driver Wyatt to celebrate his birthday and spend some time there as well. It was amazing, I met Wyatt's family and his kids are just so cute and his wife is just gorgeous. But our fun ended when that dumb bitch started making claims that her baby was Ramon's so we had to come back and go to court and then my mom also showed up that day. It's been a good week up until today pretty much."

"Damn, your in the deep end of the relationship." nods Steph.

"Wait, did you say BDSM? As in whips, and ropes, and that dominating stuff?" asked Lucy.

"Yeah..."

"Oh is Ramon like into that kind of stuff?"

"Yeah, he was the one who introduced me to that type of lifestyle. I actually find it way better than plain vanilla sex." I state.

"Really? I mean it did sound really interesting when you presented it in class, now I know why you were able to spit out facts and add a little commentary here and there, it's cause you researched first hand. I've always wanted to try it but I was so scared and I didn't know who the right people were to talk about this stuff with." Stephanie grins

"Well, you can definitely ask Ethan or Luke, since you seem to be getting cozy with them, enough about my love life, what's up with you and Ethan? You know, when we first met them, I sensed you had the hots for him." I grin back, poking her side teasingly.

"Your right, Ethan is cute and I do kinda have a crush on him. I always saw him around with Luke in the halls last semester, they were so playful and close for a second I thought they were gay, turns out they aren't."

"Ooh! Are you talking about the two cuties I met at the club that one night?"

"Yeah, them. I don't know, I kinda wanna talk to Ethan and ask him out but I'm so stupid when it comes to boys."

"I'll definitely, give him hints for you." I smile.

We spent the rest of the night talking about boys, watching movies, doing our nails, all while filling ourselves with junk food and drinks. I don't know if the decision of coming here instead of going home to face my problems was a great idea, but it was fun just to forget about everything and have fun with the girls. I needed this. Tomorrow me can deal with all my problems.
