A
Price to Pay
Part 3 Chapter 8
"Nervous?" Jeremy asked l while opening the car door for
me. I shrugged, "I've been through a lot, I don't
think your parents will scare me." I said while clasping my
hand into his. "Wait, Amy, before you go in you should know
that they are blunt and their only motive is success. So if I say
that I'm not going to go pro in soccer, don't freak out.
And when they ask you say your going to college for soccer but also
say what your majoring in." I nodded my head, trying to absorb
all the information. Something was gnawing in the pit of my
stomach, "Jeremy, what if they don't like me?" I said
in a small voice. He smiled and gave me a kiss, "If they
don't like you then they're crazy." I sighed trying to
get all that bad mojo out of me, but I still felt the butterflies.
Jeremy and I walked to the door and stepped in. The hallway was
simple and neat, but when I stepped into the big dining room I
gasped. The room was beautiful and rich looking. There was a giant
chandler overlooking the oak table. Jeremy's words popped back
into my head 'their only motive is success' I guess he
wasn't joking. "Mom, dad? Amy and I are here!" A few
moments later an accomplished man and women entered. The women,
Mrs. McKinley, was average but had a winning smile just like
Jeremy. The man, Mr. McKinley, was handsome in an older man sort of
way. I guess I know where all Jeremy's looks came from.
"Amy, we have heard so much about you! It's nice to
finally put a face to your description!" I smiled,
"It's a pleasure meeting you too, Mrs. McKinley." I
said while shaking her hand. "Jeremy has just been head over
heels for you." Mr. McKinley said while shaking my hand.
Jeremy's mom showed us to the living room, which was equally as
beautiful. Jeremy and I sat on a rich purple love seat, and Mr. and
Mrs. McKinley sat across from us on a matching sectional. "So
Amy, why don't you tell us something about yourself." Mrs.
McKinley said. I took a deep breath and said, "Well my best
friend and I both moved here last summer to attend St.
Sebastian's. I just got accepted into the University of Miami
on a scholarship for soccer, oh and I'm majoring in
History." Jeremy squeezed my hand. Mr. McKinley smiled and
said, "That's amazing! You must be very bright." I
blushed and said, "I wouldn't go that far."
Jeremy's mom asked, "What about your past? Like
before you came here." I swallowed, my past? My past
wasn't to good... Thankfully Jeremy spoke up, "Mom Amy
doesn't like to talk about it." he said frankly. His mom
raised her eyebrow, "Was it that bad? Get kicked out?
Pregnant? Failed?" she asked suspiciously. Anger flooded
through me, "No. My parents separated, and my boyfriend died
in a car crash" I said in a strong tone, "So if
that's your definition of bad than yes." I clenched my
free hand into a fist, digging my nails into my palm. Jeremy's
parents looked shocked. Mr. McKinley spoke up first, " I'm
so sorry. My wife didn't mean any disrespect." I sighed
out my last breath of anger, "It's ok, I know that you
guys weren't planning on me saying that." Jeremy looked
mad and rather embarrassed, "I told you to drop it that she
didn't want to talk about it, and what do you do? You ignore
me! Whatever we're going to my room." Jeremy said while
tugging me up the stairs. I glanced back at his parents and gave
them an apologetic glance. When we were in Jeremy's room I
sighed a breath of relief. "Thanks for sticking up for
me." I said in a small voice. Jeremy looked mad, "They
invade everyone's privacy! I will not them do that to
you." I smiled and walked up to him, "You know what I
think?" I said in a seductive voice. "What?" he
replied. "That when your mad you get really sexy." I said
while giving him a kiss. Jeremy smiled and started kissing me back.
In between his kisses he said, "You know when your really
sexy?" I whispered in his ear, "When?" he kissed my
neck, "All the time."
A few minutes later we found ourselves entwined on his bed. He was
holding me with his strong arms. No one was talking, but we
didn't have to. We just sat there, our love radiating out of
us. After a while we heard a soft knock on the door and Mrs.
McKinley's head stuck out, "It's almost dinner time,
be down in ten minutes." Jeremy nodded his head. Then we heard
the door shut and his mom walking back down the steps. Once the
coast was clear Jeremy jumped up and walked to his dresser, "I
almost forgot, when I got home from your house I also got a
letter." he said while holding it up. "What
college?" I asked. Jeremy smiled secretively, "The only
college my parents don't know I entered in." I smiled,
"Which one?" I asked, even though I already knew the
answer. "University of Miami, for soccer" I stood up with
him, "are you going to open it?" Jeremy looked nervous,
"You open it for me." I shook my head, "I already
opened three today. It's your turn to put your big boy pants
on." Jeremy rolled his eyes, "Fine." then he tore
open the envelope In one swift move. When he finished reading I
looked up at his face. He smiled and gave me a big hug, "I
made it Amy! I made it! We're going to college
together!"
