Two Days Later

     "You know he's been asking about you right?" Taylor asked as she looked over at Milan who had her attention on her notes.

"Don't care." Milan shrugged, her eyes never leaving the notebook that she had in hand. She was expecting Taylor to bring up Sean when she made it over.

Taylor liked the two together.

The night he spazzed on her, she left without a word. She didn't want to ruin the mood let along cry in front of everybody. They weren't even together for her to be doing that, but she grew to have strong feelings for him.

"Girl stop being so stubborn. You know you miss that man." Yasmeen joked, "You've been telling me how he had been blowing you up nonstop."

Milan frowned, "Okay, maybe I do miss him. I just don't like how he was being- I don't know."

"An asshole?" Yasmeen asked with her eyebrows raised, earning a laugh from her friends. "Listen, sometimes these guys act like they have a period or something."

Milan shrugged, she never saw that side of him. He was always sweet and soft with her. She started to think about Paris and Chloe, was he going to do her how he did Chloe?

"Listen, enough of that. Homecoming is coming up and it's time to be outside." Yasmeen did a little dance as she sat in Milan's desk chair.

"I've heard about how live homecoming is." Milan added.

"Duh, I'm going to be on my neck at every party." Taylor said.

"Girl, now you know Deon isn't going for that." Yasmeen pointed out, Milan nodded in agreement.

"He'll be fine." Taylor waved them off, "I don't know how I want my hair, I know it's going to be wig central out here."

Taylor currently sported long knotless braids. Her dark skin was free of any blemishes, except for the beauty mark that decorated the side of her face.

"Who you telling?" Yasmeen agreed, "The girls love them a good buss down."

"Yeah, I'm just going to get some more braids."

The girls chatted and finished up there work before they ended their night together.

"Alright well, I'm going to head out." Taylor stated while hopping off of Milan's bed, her phone was in her hand as she stared at the screen.

"Mmhm, Deon must've called you in for the night." Milan chuckled.

"And did."

"I'm right behind you too." Yasmeen stated as she stood, collecting her belongings.

The girls hugged each other goodbye, and Milan got comfortable in her bed after placing her phone on the charger and turning off her lights.

The knock on the door made her blow out a frustrated breath, she hoped whoever it was would go away eventually.

When the knocks continued, Milan huffed and pushed back her blankets getting off her bed. She figured Yasmeen or Taylor had left something behind.

Milan walked to the door cussing the culprit under her breath. She halted when she saw Paris at the door with Sean behind it.

Milan walked closer and Paris walked away before saying, "Mm."

Milan rolled her eyes as she took the place of Paris, "What do you want?"

"I- I just wanted to apologize for the other day and I wanted to explain myself."

Milan eyes landed on the vase full of Roses that Sean held, "And who's that for?" Milan asked.

"I have this girl that-"

Milan started to close the door before Sean laughed, "I'm just playing princess. They're for you."

Milan opened the door back, "Stop playing all the time." Milan cheesed as Sean handed her the flowers.

"Does that mean you forgive me?"

"A step closer, come in." Milan said opening the door wider for him.

The two walked to her room and Milan sat on her bed after placing the vase on top of her desk.

"So what's up?"

Sean shut the door and took a seat in her desk chair.

"Well again, I apologize for how I acted that night. I was going through some things."

"Things like what?" Milan questioned, "I just think you should let me know instead of being an asshole about it."

Sean's raised an eyebrow, Milan was never one to cuss. He felt her friends were rubbing off on her.

"I know, and I'm learning. Look, I want to know what are we doing? Are we together?"

"I mean.. are we? If anything, I should be asking you."

Milan was a strong believer in being asked to be in a relationship properly.

Sean looked off, he wasn't going to lead her on knowing that he wasn't ready for a relationship but he didn't want Milan to find somebody else.

"I want to, but I'm not ready."

Milan nodded, "Then it's settled, but we're not about to be around here acting like we're something we're not."

Sean smacked his lips, "But you know you feel it just as much as I do." Sean scooted closer to Milan staring into her eyes.

"Listen, you need to make a decision and make it quick. Until then I think we just should chill on the.."

"What? You know I need to be cuddled at night. You can't take that away from me." Sean laughed.

Milan smacked her lips before playfully rolling her eyes, "I'm serious.." Milan paused before looking down and back up at him.

"I think I'm catching feelings for you." Milan stated.
