Cj laid in his king sized bed scrolling aimlessly on his Instagram timeline. He occasionally zoomed in on a few females photos, who'd happen to be women he'd slept with before, getting a closer glance of their ass.
He then switched to his burner account to do what he'd got on Instagram for in the first place. This was apart of his daily routine, and of course he didn't see it as strange, he just felt he needed to check up on her and see what she was up to.
He typed Miajadee into the search bar on his burner account, being that he realized Mia had him blocked.
He tapped on her story seeing that it was lit up.
15 hrs ago, Mia had posted a photo of the sky during her plane ride and had added a location tag. Cj's face instantly scrunched up.
Tf she doing in New York he thought
He tapped to the next story, landing on a selfie she'd uploaded an hour ago.

Cj took time to analyze the photo. He licked his lips. He couldn't deny she looked beautiful. She always looked beautiful to him. He wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked the day they bumped into each other in Walmart, but he'd never, he had to keep her humble.
Cj POV I kind of felt bad about our encounter at Walmart. Although I did insinuate that she had a baby bump, I was just being funny with her. I didn't think she was for real pregnant or no shit like that. In the back of my mind I just thought she was just bloated or some shit. I know Mia a good girl. I just had to make her feel bad like she made me feel when she booked a flight to Miami without consulting with me first.
When she stormed off I slick felt bad, I knew she was probably just bloated from her period or something. I just wanted to fuck wit her. But she hurt a nigga when she went to Miami without my permission so I really don't give a fuck about how she felt.
Truth is, I really love Mia. Always have, ain no denying that. I just ain't bout to let no female play wit me. I know how females are, they sneaky as hell. If we gone be in a relationship I need respect and honesty 100%, otherwise I feel like you on some hoe shit, and it's hard for me to trust.
I know Mia gone always love a nigga, she just upset wit me right now. I been giving her time to get her mind right and then we gone be back together. I know I can always have her back whenever, what nigga out here booking they girl trips, and buying them cars and shit? What we had was real love and I ain letting nobody else get that, she one of the only females that's been special to me.

He squinted at the background in her photo, the car interior slightly visible in the shot. He didn't recognize it, but the thought that she might be out there with someone else made his blood boil.
But he was more so trying to figure out why she was in New York. He knew she had no family there and therefore had no reason to be.
"Fuck she got goin on? Probably out there being a hoe" he mumbled to himself
Cj's thoughts were interrupted by Kaylene groaning and turning over in the bed next to him.
He glanced up at her and mugged her, continuing to watch Mia's story.
Cj and Kaylene had been fucking around lately, after him and Mia broke up, he caught about 8 bodies, but Kaylene being the consistent link. He just needed consistent pussy and something to fuck on.
Kaylene rolled over, finally waking up, and nestled her head against his chest, reaching a hand over his torso. "Good morning handsome" she murmured.
Cj glanced down, forcing a smirk,and draped his arm around her waist and rubbed her bare ass.
"Aye you ever been to New York baby?" he asked casually, though his eyes were fixed on his phone
Kaylene laughed softly. "Not since I was a kid. Why?"
"You trynna go?"
Kaylene grinned, wrapping her arms around him. "Mhm. You know I'll go wherever you want." She leaned in to kiss him, but he quickly hopped up, his eyes still glued to his phone, and walked to the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.
He sat on the toilet and tapped through Mia's next two stories.
In the quiet of the bathroom, Cj leaned forward on the toilet seat, his elbows resting on his thighs,staring at Mia's story. He watched the next clip—it was a short boomerang of Mia walking down the street as she showed food she'd just gotten. The caption reading, "First meal in the city🥰".
He analyzed the boomerang, seeing that there was someone walking in front of her. The person wore black sweats and a pair of Jordans.
He clenched his jaw, feeling a familiar mix of jealousy and possessiveness.
Who the fuck is she wit he thought
Knock Knock
"Baby I gotta pee, you almost done?" Kaylene interrupted his stalking on the other side of the bathroom door.
Cj kissed his teeth. "Yea bra hol up" he spat irritatingly
Cj tapped on to the next story, where Mia recorded the view of the city from an apartment's floor to ceiling window. "So beautiful" the caption reading.
He was fed up. There was no way she was just enjoying life and acting like she didn't fuck up with him. She had booked her Miami flight behind his back without letting him know, and never even apologized for it. She was acting like they were never a thing, and he wasn't having it. And he definitely wasn't having it if she was out there with a whole other nigga.
He typed out a message, letting his thumbs hover over the screen as he re-read it.
"So you out here being a hoe state to state 😹😹bet."
He paused, shook his head, then deleted it. He knew better than to show his hand. Instead, he typed out something more casual:
"U and cj still go together?."
Satisfied, he hit send. He sat there for a minute, imagining her seeing the message and picturing the look on her face. Maybe she'd feel a little guilty, a little torn. That's what he wanted.
He exited out of Instagram and went to text Madison. He knew they'd worked at the same company. He wanted to know if Mia had told her anything about her taking off to take a vacation.
After texting Madison, he slipped his phone into his pocket and finally got up, taking a last glance at himself in the mirror, fixing his expression. He gave himself a small, self-satisfied smirk, as if he'd already won something no one else even knew they were competing for.
When he walked back into the bedroom, Kaylene was sprawled on the bed, checking her own phone. She looked up as he entered, her smile warm and inviting. But to him, she was just a placeholder, a way to fill the space where Mia's absence gnawed at him.
"I'm finna book us a lil quick trip, so go head and take off and shit" he said, climbing back into bed, draping an arm over her.
Kaylene's eyes lit up, completely unaware of the underlying motives. She nestled closer, as if this was all about them, as if he wanted her there.
Cj got off the bed and stood at the edge, slowly edging his boxers down.
He licked his lips.
"And lemme get another round in before I head to the spot"
