Love & Basketball [Book 1]

Chapter 17

Jacob Latimore POV

I'm in the studio with August Alsina when he gets off the phone. He gets off your and says he wanted to stop by. I'm working on a song and August is like a brother to me. Of course I'll show love to him and hang out and chill. I can't say no to that.

He walks back in the booth looking like he mad and I ask what's wrong with him. He just says he's good when I just shrug it off. I gotta tell him about what went down with the whole Cymphonique thing. What Bahja did was wrong and he deserves to get in trouble for that. Cymphonique ain't do one thing to her but put her in check.

"Aye August." I say getting his attention. "I gotta tell you what went down."

"Whatchu mean?" He looks at me confused. Then I see Cymphonique and Nicki walk into the studio. I start smiling and try turning around.

"Hey Jacob." Nicki smiles as she gives me a hug. "How are you?"

"I'm good Nicki. How you doing Nicki?" I ask her.

"I've been good. Why don't you and Cymphonique go out into the hallway and let us have our moment." Nicki said and we leave out.

Cymphonique doesn't even say a word or two to me but I don't mind it though. I walk up to a chair and sit down and she grabs a chair and pulls it away from me. Then, she sits down.

I love when she's this way.

"You good Cymphonique?" I ask and she just ignores me. "Rude ass."

"Unless I hear a motherfuckin' apology ion wanna hear you or that ratchet hoe. She got so much comin' too." Cymphonique said angry.

"She deserves it." I said when Cymphonique just looks at me. "I agree a hundred percent. I just wanna apologize for it."

"You good," she says. "thank you."

"So what's going on with you?" I ask her.

"Nothin' except gettin' in trouble. That's all." Cymphonique says, rolling her eyes.

"What's the punishment?" I ask her.

"Don't kno' yet," she shrugs. "Long as it don't have nothin' to do wit' basketball. I'm good."

"You a basketball player? I bet I can play you and win." I laugh.

"Ooh please. You beat me? Ha! Don't make me laugh. I can school you any day if I want to." Cymphonique said, standing up.

"Well, let's see about that then." I said getting up, about to shake hands on it.

"Looks like we got ourselves a bet." Cymphonique said. "If I win then... Hmm you can be my little servant."

"And if I win, then, hmmm.... I get to take you out." I smile.

"Take. Me. Out? Like a date?" Cymphonique asks me.

"Ooh no no, nothing like that. Unless you want it to be." I said.

"Looks like we have a bet. Damn, I should've bet money on it." Cymphonique says laughing.

"Cym, get in here now." August says to her.

"Bye," I wave and sit back down.

Sorry if this chapter is too short but I ended up getting writers block and now I didn't know what to write for this chapter and I didn't want to leave y'all hanging so here you go.
