August POV

I drove off and I sure was horny as fuck. I don't want to cheat on Jade. Especially on her birthday, matter fact any day. I'm thinking about my future with her. I got to a red light and my phone started ringing. I didn't look who was calling, I just answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey August. You haven't called me in a while."

"Who is this?"

"Erica. When are you coming home?" she said

"Erica, I already told you I don't want you. You was a hit and quit." I said getting mad

"Whatever. I'll see you soon." she said, hanging up.

I threw my phone and put my AUX cord in to listen to Not For Long by B.o.B. He doesn't get enough credit for his music. Nigga sure does go in. I got home in 20 minutes, even though the drive is 10 minutes. I went straight upstairs to take a shower.

"Finally, what took you so long?" Erica said, scaring the shit out of me

"What the fuck! How you get in my house?" I said getting a towel.

"I used the extra key you gave me. Remember?" she said coming closer to me

"Get out." I said weakly. Her body looked bomb as hell, but I was thinking about Jade.

"Stop fighting it August. You know you want me and I want you." she said moving my towel off.

I was about to let her in, but the Lord saved me. "Get the fuck out of my house and give me my damn key!"

"Fine, call me when you want some." she said winking

"Damn." I mumbled

My phone was vibrating and I didn't feel like answering it so I let it go to voicemail. I got up and went to the restroom, but made sure I locked the door. I took a shower and let my mind relax.

Jade POV

August didn't answer my call but I wasn't worried because he probably didn't see it. I shrugged my shoulders and walked to my restroom to wash up.

"Are you almost done?" Ryan asked

"I just got in here Ryan." I said laughing

"Hurry up! I'm hungry." she whined

"Shut up girl. I'm almost done anyways." I said

I was done washing up after 10 minutes and Ryan picked my dress out for me. I looked around for Micaela.

"Where's Micaela?" I asked

"Downstairs with Colin and Tre." Ryan said

"They're still here?" I asked

"Yeah, apparently they're ready but we have like an hour left." she said

"So what are we doing for an hour? Not tryna let yall eat all my food." I said, slipping my dress on

"Umm..we could go to get frozen yogurt?" she suggested

"Yeah, we could all just chill at Starbucks or something. Go tell them." I said

She nodded her head and left. I tried FaceTiming August but instead of it ringing a few times, I got two rings and it said he wasn't available. I knew he declined it but I don't understand why. I hope he isn't mad.

"Jade!!" Micaela said

"Coming!" I yelled back, going down the stairs

"Come here. I have to show you something." she said

She handed me her phone, and I was reading some tweet.

@Ericathebaddie - had fun with @augustalsina today!! love you bae

I shook my head and said, "I'm done. Fuck him, fuck this, fuck valentines day."

I walked to the kitchen and got a water bottle. I went outside because I needed some fresh air. Right when I was about to sit down and enjoy the weather, I saw August pull in my drive way. He parked and got out the car with a dress shirt and some slacks.

"Hey bae." he said

"Hi." I said dodging his hug.

"What's wrong ma? Why you not giving a nigga a hug?" he asked

"Ask Erica to do it for you." I said with an attitude, walking to my car

"How you know Erica." he asked

"Social media helps us all." I said, opening my door

He held the door so I couldn't get in, "Listen, I didn't do anything with her. I swear on it ma. She was trying to do shit but a nigga was thinking about yo fine ass so I pushed her away. You have to believe me, if we don't got trust we have nothing."

I was looking in his eyes the whole time he said every word. I didn't want to be mad today, especially since it was Valentines Day & my birthday.

"Ok. I believe you. But if I ever see this bitch around you, i'm fucking her up." I said seriously

He chuckled, "It's cute how protective you are, when I should be the one saying you better not see another nigga."

I smiled and hugged him. "August, our okay is going to be panda bears."

He laughed and pulled me into a kiss. I admired his eyes. Just so beautiful and brown. Oh lord and his lips.

"Panda bears?" I said trying not to laugh

"Panda bears my ass." he said, laughing

I playfully smacked him and he said, "Let's go. A nigga hungry and ride with me."

"Let me tell everyone else to come on, and I need to get my purse." I said walking, until he grabbed my waist.

"I'll tell them to come on. Go in the car." he said

I nodded my head and went inside his car. I sat down and saw something pink in the back of the car. It was a small note or something.

"Hey Auggie. Call me when you read this, I miss us." I read out loud. I turned the back of the card around and saw Erica signed it.

I put the card back where I found it and saw everyone coming out to get into there cars. I saw Micaela and Colin. But I didn't see Ryan and Tre. I only saw Ryan. August came in the car and smiled. I rolled my eyes and faced the window.

"Did you grab my phone?" I asked

"Yeah. Here you go ma." he said

I thanked him and texted Ryan.

"Where's tre?"

She responded, "We broke up and he got cut off by the squad. I'll give you details later."

I nodded my head and listened to music for the rest of the ride.

"What's wrong now?" he asked, turning the music down

"Nothing. Let's ask Erica again." I said

He smacked his teeth, "I thought we just dropped this?"

"Well, obviously didn't because you didn't clean your car out." I said, rolling my eyes

"What did you find?" he asked
