Doing It All For Love

43.

The party was still going and I was just enjoying my night. What E said didn't bother me we said no more secrets so if it's true he would tell me.

He was staring at me all night.

These was the times I hated the most. I would love to be dancing and enjoying the night with my man but unfortunately we gotta remain a secret.

"When this shit end yall tryna go get breakfast?" Bagg said walking up. I laughed.

"From Waffle House?" Lay asked.

"Yeah like old gang style." "I'm down." She said smiling at him. Bagg really could leave Lay speechless but he has kids plus he's with his baby mother.

They fuck off but a relationship wouldn't work.

"Me too. I'm sure the others will." I said. "Sayless. Lay let me holla at ya." He said licking his lips.

"Oops let me excuse myself baby."

I laughed walking off. East was talking to Baby and some other guys.

I walked over.

They was just casually talking. East looked down. "Wassup." He said making me smile instantly.

"You got that look in yo eye."

"What look?" "Like you wanna undress me." He laughed. "Good that mean it's working." I laughed. "Boy bye."

"We can dip when you ready."

"Bagg wanna go to Waffle House." "Well meet em there." I laughed. "No that'll look too suspicious."

"Mannnnn."

"You'll be okay. It's yo secret not mine." "Whatever." He said acting like a lil kid.

I laughed he so dramatic.

"Baby y'all down for Waffle House?" I asked him. "You know it." "Sayless. We gone wrap this up."

After the party we headed to breakfast.

I loved my family and was glad we was restored. The ladies loaded in my car while the guys rode with East.

"I just wanna say thank y'all for real for welcoming me home." Lay said.

"Awewwwnnn always bestie." I hugged her.

"Same you know it's love." Des said and E agreed.

"Sadness aside you and Bagg?" I asked her smirking. She laughed. "He cool people."

"How you feeling bout him?"

"Ion know. To find out my own boyfriend didn't even visit me in the hospital it kind of hurt. Think imma stay away from the dating scene."

"What? Not Get It Girl Lay." E said making us laugh.

"Yeah cause how you not visit yo girlfriend like we got an open relationship but that's just sad for real."

"I agree shit could've been said or handled different." "Exactly which is why I had to back up from everybody. Think I see life differently since the wreck."

"What you mean?" Des asked her but I know the exact feeling she was talking about.

"It did more harm than good you know?

Like laying there with nothing. No thoughts, dreams, not even nightmares just silence I was basically dead. It made me reflect on everything I did.

I just want better. To finish school and just live."

"I'm happy for you bestie." She smiled.

"Thanks Ali." "No problem baby." We played the music softly as we drove.
