Zoey P.O.V.
Working with August in the studio was fun. I know I said I was gonna keep it professional with August, but damn I sure wish I went to his hotel room.

Alanni P.O.V.
I was in Atlanta for my uncle's wedding. I saw August talking to some girl and they looked like they're conversation was really good. I saw the girl touch August chest and I took a picture. Not stalking, I know I can use it against him. And if you haven't realized yet, I'm the one threatening to send Jhené the pictures. I have August under my control now.

August P.O.V.
After talking to Jhené, I got a call from Zoey.
-Convo-
Zoey- Hey August
Me- wassup
Zoey- nothing much, I can't stop singing our song.
Me- We make a good team don't we?
Zoey- yea. We should definitely do more songs.
Me- yea yea, definitely.
Zoey- so, what has your sexy self been up to?
Me- hanging with fam
Zoey- sounds fun. You wanna go see a movie or something?
Me- Uhh sure .
Zoey- okay pick me up at 8!
Me- uh okay.

Zoey's P.O.V.
I was getting ready for my date with August. He might not think it's a date, but I'm counting it. I got dressed in something sexy and did my makeup. I flat ironed my hair and waited for August. When he got here, he was looking sexy af. Man I hope this night go further than it was supposed to. "Damn sexy." I said to August. "Uhh thanks." August said. I got closer to him. "How do I look?" I asked August. "You look.. good." August said. "Come on now. I spent hours getting ready. Say I look.... Sexy." I said rubbing my hands on August shoulder. "I told you, you look good." "August." I said giving him a look. "You look sexy." August finally said looking away. I pulled his face to look at mine. "Come on. Let's go have some fun." I said to August smiling. While we were watching the movie, the girl in the movie told the boy she loved him and turned to kiss him beginning to get freaky. I turned to August and smiled. I pulled his face into mine and kissed him. We kissed for a minute, then he pulled away. "Zoey, I got a girl at home. We can't do this." August said. I pulled him back in. "August, don't fight it." I said kissing him again. August put his hand on my leg then quickly pulled away. "No. This isn't right. I'm sorry." August turned back around.

August P.O.V.
Zoey was tryna get with me, and I had to make her stop. When I got to Zoey hotel, I parked to tell her I had fun and we should hang more. "August, you are so damn fine. Your girl is lucky." Zoey said. "Thanks." I said. "I had fun tonight." Zoey said pulling me in kissing me. We just sat there almost getting carried away. I tried pulling away but Zoey kept pulling me back. I wanted to stop but my body didn't. After about 3 minutes, I stopped. "Zoey, we can't. I'll see you tomorrow." "Bye August." Zoey said. When I got back to the hotel, I got some messages.

Unknown- more pictures! (August & Zoey kissing at movies and car, Zoey's arms around August. & August and Zoey at movies.)

Me- WHO TF ARE YOU?!

Unknown- Go on a real date with Zoey or I show Jhené all the photos.

Me- why you doing this?

Unknown- because you deserve to be miserable. Do what I say or say bye bye to Jhené.

Me- .....just a date?

Unknown- And a little after party

Me- Fine. You can't send those photos.

Unknown- after you do my part of the deal.

Me- ok
-End of Convo-

I called Zoey to tell her to get ready tomorrow. It went to voicemail so I left her a message. "Hey Zoey. Be ready at 8 tomorrow. We going out." I said pissed off.

Zoey P.O.V.
I had got August voicemail and I was happy af! We finna go to his place and fuck! The next day I got my hair and nails done and was looking cute. When August got me, we went straight to his place. He ordered take-out and made the table look all romantic with candles and rose petals. "I thought we were going to a restaurant." I said. "We were, but I thought we would have more fun here." August said. We was about to get it on tonight! The whole time August basically ignored me. "Is everything okay?" I asked confused. August nodded his head yes. It made me want him even more. Then I thought, this was part of his plan. He's just teasing me to make me want him more. I moved the food off the table and sat on it. I took August hand and placed it on my butt. He picked me up and began to kiss me. He pulled away for a second then continued. We made out on the in the dining area for like 5 minutes, then we went to the bedroom and made out on the bed.

August P.O.V.
I didn't want to do this, but I couldn't let this person send the pictures to Jhené. The more and more Zoey and I kissed, the more I liked it. I don't want to but I can't help it. I was about to go in when I thought to myself that I didn't need to fuck with Zoey to protect myself from those pictures. Jhené is the type of person that will here me out. When I stopped, Zoey asked me "What's wrong baby." "I'm sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I can't do this to Jhené, you gotta go." I said putting my clothes back on and handing hers to her. The next day me and Dae Dae went to Denny's for breakfast. It was nice spending time with Dae Dae after so many years. We are really close and don't keep secrets. "So, when are you leaving" Dae Dae asked. "In two days. Trying to get rid of me already?" I said laughing. "No, I missed you. When will you be back?" "Ion know but soon." I said. "Well I'll be waiting for the day you come back." Dae Dae said. After breakfast I went to get something for Jhené. I saw a necklace that could have its own message on it. I got Jhené on it and on the other side it said "Always my baby."

Jhené P.O.V.
I was missing my baby August so much! I couldn't wait for him to come back. I invited him over as soon as he got home so I could give him a welcome home gift. I can't stand not being with him.

Zoey P.O.V.
I was about to let August eat my ass like a cupcake. He backed out the second he was gon put it in. I swear that nigga need to make up his mind!

Alanni P.O.V.
I got pictures of Zoey going to August hotel. I had broke into August hotel and he didn't even notice. There was moments when he almost caught me, but I got all I needed. I got another photo of Zoey about to kiss August. Since August didn't go through with our plan, I was sending this pictures to Jhené.

August P.O.V.
I had got off the plane and was on my way to my house. I showered and went to Jhené's house. She told me she was home alone so I was about to hit that. When I got there, she was looking fine af. She hopped up on me kissing on my neck and saying "I missed you!" "I missed you too baby!" I said kissing and hugging her. We got in the bed and talked. She got on top of me and kissed my chest. I turned her over and went in. She moaned and wrapped her legs around me. We was going at it for a long time. When we stopped she put her robe on and went to get her phone.

Jhené P.O.V.
I went to go get my phone out of the living room. I got a text from an unknown number.
-Convo-
Unknown- a lil something you need to know.

Me- who is this???

Unknown- doesn't matter. you will thank me later.

Me-????

Unknown- (sends all the pictures.)

-end of convo-

I called August in the living room to talk to him about these photos. "You have fun in Atlanta?" I asked August with a fake smile. "Yea baby." August replied. "See anyone there?" "I saw my cousins." August said giving me that obvious tone. "Can I show you something?" I asked August. "Yea." I showed him the pictures and he was silent. "Let me ask you again. Did you see anyone ELSE there?" "Yes but-" I cut him off. "So while you was gone, you was fuckin with another bitch?!" "No, I-" August started. "No August . You need to tell me what these pictures mean RIGHT NOW!!!" I shouted. "Baby. These pictures don't mean nothing. Some of them are taking out of context." August said. "Some?!" I shouted. "So you mean to tell me the others aren't ?" I continued. "Bae," "Tell me which ones." I said. He was silent. "TELL ME WHICH ONES!!! "The ones that aren't as they seem are her hugging me and me taking her hand to the studio." August said. "So yall kissing and at yo hotel are true? And you got a studio you didn't tell me about?!" I asked frustrated. "Yes, but she came on to me at the movies." August said. "What about at the hotel?" I asked. "Okay baby, the hotel pictures weren't a misunderstanding, but there was no meaning to it I swear!" August said quickly. A tear ran down my face. "Why August. You told me that you loved me and we weren't gonna keep secrets." "This wasn't going to be a secret!" August yelled a little. "Then when were you going to tell me?" I asked August. He was silent for a while. I looked down and more tears came on. "Wow. I might regret this but I'll get over it because it's for the best." I said. "Regret what?? What's for the best??" August asked. I stayed silent. "Jhené!" August shouted. "We should take a break until you figure things out." I said walking to the door. Jhené. You not really doing this?" August asked.
I looked down and opened the door. "Jhené!" August shouted. "Bye August." I shut the door and went to my room and cried.

August P.O.V.
When Jhené kicked me out I balled up my fists and a tear came down my face. When I got home I went straight to my room and started throwing stuff. I was pissed at myself and I regret everything. I picked up the necklace I bought Jhené and threw it across the room. I had to find away for Jhené to take me back and forgive me.
