Chris

"So you gone ignore me all night?" I slid in the bed as she turned over.

"Fuck it I'm not about to kiss your ass" I turned on the other side pulling the cover over me if she want to be childish then that's on her. Fuck I look like?

-- Next Day

"Im sorry aight? Damn" I kept pecking her lips as she tried not to crack a smile. I can't have her mad at me all day.

"Okay okay" she smiled. "Don't talk to me or grabbed me like that again or you'll die"

"Yeah right" I let her face go.

"Shit kind of turned me on lowkey but I was still mad" she giggled.

"Bruh we could've fucked that shit out, that shit was crazy though"

"Sorry" she shrugged. "But it was crazy I'm just glad you not hurt" she fixed my shirt.

"Aw you care about me" I teased her.

"Yeah I guess" she made a stink face. "Don't be acting like you wasn't about to lose your shit if I went back in there for my purse"

"Man cause you can get that shit later, you can get it now after I leave"

She looked over the clock "Um Chris you are 10 minutes late for that meeting"

"Oh shit" I ran upstairs throwing on my shoes and grabbed my jacket and keys. I ran back downstairs feeling like I forgot something looking around.

"Looking for this" she held my phone up.

"Aw yeah" I walked over to her teaching for it but then she held it behind her back. "April come on man"

"Give me a kiss first" I sucked my teeth as I bent down giving her a wet kiss as she handed me my phone pushing me away. "Bye ugly"

"Bye sexy" I winked walking out as she shook her head.

I hopped in the car speeding off to my meeting.

April

I walked inside the club from last night looking around at all the mess and a few people cleaning I felt bad for them.

"Excuse me ma'am you can't be here right now" I turned to my left seeing a familiar face.

"Don?" I said walking towards him.

"April? Aw damn girl I thought I saw you in here last night" he hugged me tight as I hugged him back. We went to high school together before he left the beginning or our senior year. I pulled back "You date Chris Brown now? What happened to Marcus?"

"Yep and ah long story but it wasn't working out that's all. Why you cleaning up here?"

"My uncle owns the club I'm helping him out right now. You look good though, always did" Don always had a crush on me.

"You too" I smiled. "Um where is the lost and found because I left my purse here last night"

"Just follow me" he placed the broom against the wall as I followed him to the back. He went to a room opening the door.

"Woah its a lot of stuff in here"

"I know people loose their stuff and don't come back for it, look around" he stepped to the side letting me in. I walked around seeing stuff organized in boxes. I searched for the box that had "Bags" written on it and mines was right at the top.

"Found it" I grabbed it looking in it to make sure everything was in there and it was.

"Good come on girl" I turned around as I seen an older man stop at the door.

"Who is this?" He said walking in.

"Oh I'm April, I just came to get my bag. Sorry about last night"

"Don't be sorry Babygirl it wasn't your fault" he gave me a reassuring smile.

"I know but it looks pretty bad in here can I help?" I offered.

"Help do what?" Don said.

"Clean duh"

"I don't have a problem with it, Oh I'm Jamal, this nigga uncle" he reached his hand out and I shook it. They looked so much alike.

"Nice to meet you Jamal"

"Same to you too beautiful" I smiled nodding.

"Come on let's get to work then, always wanna help people and shit" Don said walking out and I followed him.

"Shut up nigga, I can't help it" I placed my purse and took off my jacket as he passed me the broom.

"Trust me I know" he smirked and I pushed him playfully.

My phone started ringing as I grabbed it out my pocket, I looked at the screen seeing it was Chris. "Hold on" I told Don getting up from the table as he nodded, slide my finger across the phone answering it "Hey baby."

"Sup way you at?" He said smacking through the phone.

"Oh at the club from last night"

"The club from last night? Why you there man?" He said.

"I was getting my purse and I decided to help, Chris it looked really bad"

"And? They got people for that, come on home" he said and I hear Ron in the back "Yeah bring that ass girl"

"Shut up" I said rolling my eyes. "Look I'll be there whenever, bye" I hung up on him. "Annoying ass"

I walked back to the table grabbing my things. "I gotta go"

"Your daddy called huh?" He said getting up from his chair.

"Shut up, But text me whenever. It was nice seeing you again" I put my arms through the jacket flipping my hair over to the side.

"Nice seeing you too and you know I will" he smiled and I gave him a hug.

I pulled back saying bye walking out seeing cameras in my face. Ugh "What happened last night?" "Why were you at the club again?" "Does he hit you?" I rolled my eyes pushing past they rude ass getting in my car. I am not a celebrity don't be following me. I started the car then drive off quickly, I don't have the time.

When I got home this two big ass kids were in the basketball game and Ron was still in his work uniform.

I placed my stuff done walking into the family room sitting on his lap. "Sup baby" he kissed me.

"Sup ugg" Ron said drinking his beer.

"Hey guys" I laid back on Chris chest as they were all hype over this game and I was sitting them not into it because the Bulls wasn't playing.

"So who Don?" He said randomly during half time and Ron got up getting more snacks.

"What?" I looked up at him.

"Who is he?" He handed me his phone and it was MTO having pictures of me and Don laughing and smiling inside the club. It probably was that girl with the bad weave sitting on the side taking pictures. Smh.

"Just a friend Chris" I handed him back his phone.

"Where you know him from?" He asked speaking against my neck.

"High school, why you asking me so many questions?"

"Cause I wanna know, why you being so hostile?" He was getting on my nerves now.

"I'm not being hostile"

"Look like a good time to me, smiling in his face and shit"

"Ion got time for this goodnight" I tried getting up as he pulled me back down on his lap.

"Stop being a baby, watch the game. It's cool April" he kissed my ear shaking his head and I sighed. It's really not with him.
