It was the end of the day and I was at my locker, getting my basketball jersey and my basketball shorts out of it.
"Y/n" I heard next to me. I jumped a little. I looked in the direction I heard it, seeing Jahseh.
"My bad. I didn't mean to" he chuckled. I laughed.
"You got time to talk?" He questioned
"Yeah I have a little time but I gotta practice before my game tonight" I informed
"You want me to come?" He asked
"Yeah. More support" I answered
"Ight. I'll be there" he says
"But anyways I know this is random but when we were talking about our past relationships you said that your ex broke up with you cuz he said he was too dangerous for you" he mentioned
"Mhm" I nodded my head
"Like how was he dangerous?" He questioned
"He was in gang" I revealed
"Oh" he says
"Yeah and he didn't want me to get hurt. He just wanted to protect me" I added. He nodded his head.
"He lived in an area where all the rival gang members where" I add
"Sorry if that was personal" he apologized
"No. It's okay but I have to go now but I'll see you at the game" I said as I started to walk off.
"Wait" he spoke as he grabbed my hand. I turned around.
"Can I get your snap?" He questioned
"Yeah" I agreed. We both pulled our phones out and exchanged our snaps.
"Ight I'll see you tonight" he says
"I hope so" I said. We then parted our ways. I started walking down to the gym.
"Aye you gon kill it tonight" A boy in the hall said
"Thank you" I thanked her him. People know me for my basketball skills. I'm the top player on my team. I changed into my jersey and shorts and practiced before the game.

JAHSEH POV
I got to my car and sat there for a little bit. The way she talked about her ex. I was just getting a feeling that she wasn't over him. She never talked bad about him once. She blushed just talking about him. It's fine though. We're not together. It doesn't bother me. If she's not over him then she's not over him. It's not a big deal. I drove home and went straight to my room.

I was scrolling through my phone when there were 3 knocks at my door.
"Come in" I called out. My door opened and it revealed my dad.
"You okay son?" He spoke
"Yeah" I lied
" what's wrong?" He questioned knowing I was lying. He sat on my bed.
"You know that girl I met that told you guys about?" I asked
"Yeah" I answered
"Well. I don't think she's over her ex" I revealed
"What makes you think that?" He questioned
"Well we were talking about our past relationships and she was talking about one of her exes. She never said anything bad about him, she blushed whenever she talked about him and-" he cut me off
"Well maybe she isn't over him. Maybe she really loved him son" he says
"I know" I agreed
"It's alright through. She not gonna be stuck on him forever" he said. I nodded my head showing I understood. The then got up and I got dressed agin to go to her game.
