Two guarded souls who recognize the ache in each other, trying not to fall too hard but drawn together anyway. Their love simmers beneath the surface-fierce, quiet, and complicated. He's her storm in silence; she's his peace in chaos

"What?" Nuke scoffed, his voice cutting through the room."You know that nigga not gone like that shit." (aka Nikko)
Matthew leaned back in his chair, calm but unmoved. "Yeah and?"
Nuke leaned forward, hands clasped, agitation raising. "But dawg you gotta think about it, this could cause a problem" Nikko continued on worriedly "Come on, tell him we can't do this shit"
Rocky let out a low laugh, shaking his head. "Where you find this kid?" He turned to Duke, the only one who hadn't said a word.
Duke exhaled, slow and long, the weight of the moment sitting heavy in his chest. He rubbed his brow , then finally looked up quiet steel in eyes.
"You the only one who disagrees Nuke" Matthew said flatly, cutting through the noise.
Nuke looked around, realizing for the first time that no one else had backed him. His voice got louder, trying to force sense into the room.
Duke finally moved. Leaned forward, elbows on his knees. His voice came out low, almost too calm.
"I told you what it was from the jump. Now you got me questioning if you even ready."
"So I'm not ready because I'm thinking long term?" Nuke shot back, the frustration sharp in his voice. "This shit ain't a game, Duke."
Duke face didn't flinch. "Exactly. It's not. That's why you won't last in it."
Shaking his head Nuke stood up from the couch getting ready to leave but was quickly pulled back by Zaire.
"Don't touch me" Nuke pushed Zaire hand off his shoulder.
"Well, if you like your life then stay put," Zaire looked him up and down.
"Damn I wish ya'll nigga's chill the fuck out." Duke mumbles as he took the blunt from behind his ear and sparked it. "I'll deal with Milo"
"So we really doing this" Nuke asked making Duke shake his head while blowing the smoke out his mouth.
"Not you Nikko, you're done." Nuke quickly opened his mouth to speak but Duke shut him down.
