I stand in the bathroom mirror applying makeup to my neck to hide the bruises from yesterday. I look up and see Zion standing behind me in his uniform looking at me with a blank expression so I look away.

When I'm finished I put away my products and turn to leave only to be blocked in. "Where are you goin so early?" He asked towering over me "I have early classes today" I say looking down.

"How many?" He questions and as bad as I want to tell him to leave me tha fuck alone I just sigh lowly. "Four, then I might go get my hair and nails done" I explain now looking into his eyes. He nods and moves out my way allowing me to walk pass him and go into our room.

I look into my body mirror looking over my outfit. I spray on my perfume then grab my white Chanel purse before walking out our room. I walk into the kitchen and I grab my keys and walk to the door only to be stopped.

"Why are you in such a rush? No kiss?" I hear Zion say. I put on my best smile and turn around "just tryna get some Starbucks before I go to class" I say walking over to him and placing a quick kiss on his lips.

I dash out the door and get on the elevator pressing the garage button. Once I get there I go to my white bmw i8 and hop in. After getting settled I push start and drive out of the parking garage.

• 1:04pm •

I spent my day getting my hair done. It's red wit a middle part and stops at my ass. Then I got my nails done and my eyebrows. Ben texted me saying to meet them at this address that he sent.

When I get there I see it's a hotel. I go in and text him for the floor and room number he sends it to me and I get on the elevator going to the the floor.

My heart is beating a little fast and I become a little more nervous just thinking about being in the same room with them all again.

The elevator came to a stop and I walk out. "2117...2117" I mumble to myself looking for the room. I see it and walk up to the door. Before I overthink and leave I knock on the door then step back.

A couple of seconds pass before the door is opened by a smiling Ben. "Wassam laniii" he drags pulling me into a hug and I giggle hugging him back. "Hey Ben" I say then we pull apart and he moves to the side so that I can walk in.

I stand behind him as he shuts the door and locks it while loud talking fills the room. He turns around and looks shocked to see me still standing there "Damn you scared me, why you just standin hea?" He says laughing. "Ion know where to go and this a suite" he nods and grabs my hand leading me past the kitchen and into the living room where everyone was sitting.

They all stop talking and look up at us. "Oh shit what up lani" joe say standing up and pulling me into a hug and I hug him back. I start to feel his hands slide down my back to my ass but before I could react kd pushes him off me.

"Get off my sista fuck wrong wit you" he says before turning to me and picking me up hugging me tight like he did yesterday. "F-fuck kd" I try to yell but can't because of his grip.

"C'mon mane y'all niggas tripping" three says pulling him off me then giving me a hug. I smile hugging him back before sitting down. I see a young looking boy, a big brown skin guy with dreads and the light skin man from yesterday all sitting down and looking at me.
