💘  " You " 💘

It's been a whole week. August was still acting the same. He went back to work but he comes home early now. No more coming home drunk or smelling like weed. He's really trying to change, I think.

I was at the store with Niya and Raey. Niya was my crazy ass twin. Raey was my crazy ass best friend since 6th grade. They both kind of test August's loyalty to me. But, I know how he is. Lately, the store has been getting hella of customers. Frankly, I still couldn't believe August did this for me.

Raey- so he's really changing

You- yeah

Niya- no more coming in late

You- nope he's been coming home a lot more early

Raey- no smelling like weed or being drunk

You- nope

Niya- wow

Niya- awl

Raey- that's why

I was just browsing through the clothes. Til I bumped into someone.

We ran over to where Niya was. They was looking so concerned. What's going on?

Niya- the girls school called and

Raey- somebody threatened to shoot up the school with everyone in it

Niya- teachers and administrators got all the students out before the person could move further

You- lets go

We got what we needed going to the girls school. Traffic was backed up cause of the situation. It took us 30 minutes to get there.

We searched and searched for girls through all the parents students teachers and staff. But it was too many of them.

Raey- this is just crazy

Niya- yeah let me just find Jaay okay

Raey- yeah Shortiee too

You- I see Shortiee curly hair

Raey- where

You- over there

Niya- Jaay with her

Raey- yeah

You- thank god their okay

We tried to get to them. It was too damn packed so we tried to get their attention.

After the whole situation at the school I was back at home. I had a lot of calls coming in. Every female was loving my new clothing line they were blowing up my phone making orders.

I was on the phone I heard August come in. I looked at him. He headed upstairs. He looked different. His shirt was torn had lip stick on his neck and I swore I smelled perfume from where he was standing. I was in the kitchen. Strong ass perfume.

I got off the phone with the customer headed upstairs. August was laying on the bed in his boxers.

You- um

August- what

I could still smell the perfume. He didn't look like his self. I folded my arms looking at him.

You- tf is that smell, August

August- what smell

You- really cause I don't remember wearing strong ass perfume today

August- nothin is going on

You- really August you came into this house with a torn shirt and lip stick on your neck smelling like perfume nothin is going on

August- no

He got up walking towards me. He just kissed like nothing is happening right now. Like we aren't arguing right now. He was into it lifting up my shirt.

You- August what the hell

August- sorry

He walked into the bathroom. I just stood there for a minute. Then I walked in the bathroom. August was standing in front of the mirror with his head down. The sink was running I sat on the counter. Pulling August towards me making him look at me.

You- tf is going on

August- idk

You- are you going to tell me what happened

August- I ain't want that shit to happen I just cant hurt you again I don't want to lose you

I wrapped my arms around his neck looking deep into his eyes. He's not going to lose me. Unless he do some fucked shit again.

You- Aug your not going to lose me

August- I did some fucked shit I can't take back

You- if your talking about the thing with Leah its the past lets move forward

August- your right after the tour lets move

You- where

August- LA

You- why not

He picked me up carrying me to the bed. He layed me down laying next to me. He wants us to move to LA after the tour. Oh boy.
