Hey yall! Sorry this is a repost of the chapter because for some reason it didn't pop up as the right Chapter on my phone. Hopefully it's all corrected. Enjoy!

Ps. The real one doesn't have a line that says "Fa'sho" in it so if you see it let me know so I can try and fix it again

Samara's POV

"That's a wrap!" The director yelled right as the room went dark and the lights came back up before the stage crew started clapping. We had just finished our first season of 'Just a Game' and if I can say so myself it was going to be an amazing show.

"It was a pleasure to work with you, Ms. Gray," Terry, my co-star said with a grin and I smiled.

"I told you to call me Samara, and it was fun working with you as well."

"You know, I was wondering that maybe if you were free this after this maybe we can catch something to eat or something," he offered and I smiled politely.

"Sorry, my boyfriend is taking me out to celebrate the show's ending. How about a raincheck?"

"Yeah, I'll hold you to that."

"Great. See you around," with one last look I wished everyone a great vacation before heading to my car and slipping inside before speeding home.

"Babe!" I yelled as I opened my home door. Since Adam had been staying with me for the last couple of weeks while his place was under renovation I knew he should've already been home. Slipping off my heels, I headed towards the kitchen feeling this exhaustion weigh down my body with every step. I yawned tiredly as I hit the button on my voicemail and searched through my fridge for something to eat.

"First voice message from; Adam Taylor, twenty minutes ago." The voicemail machine read before Adam's rushed voice came from throughout the phone.

"Hey, babe. Sorry, I'm not home, I'm working late again tonight. Don't bother waiting up, I'm going for drinks with the guys once I'm done here. Love you!" The beep of the line cut his voice out and I sighed. Whatever.

"Second voice message from; Nicole Jackson, forty minutes ago." The voicemail spoke again

"Hey, girl! Congratulations on finishing the first season of your show! Oh and I need your help planning this wedding because Trey is absolutely no help what-so-ever. I have someone coming to pick you up so just make sure your ready. Love you!"

"End of voice messages," I shook my head at Nikki's message before slipping back on my heels. I was exhausted but if my best friend needed me then I was going to be there. I quickly ran to my bathroom and reapplied my lip gloss so I didn't look so tired before I heard the doorbell ring. That was my ride. I applied one more layer before heading to the door. The ringing continued and I jogged to get to the door.

"Dang, what's up with all the knocki-- August?" I said not believing my sight.

"Damn yall women take foreva'. What you doin' in there? Paintin' on a new face?" He asked and I rolled my eyes at how extra he was being.

"Unlike the women you mess around with, I don't need to paint on a new face," I said causing August to chuckle.

"And unlike the niggas you mess around wit, all my women leave my side with they legs shaking and mind blown. What about you Samara, ya ever felt that kind of pleasure?"

"Why must in every conversation must sex be the first thing that comes to mind?" I asked placing both hands on my hips.

"Why haven't ya answered ma' question?" He challenged and instead of responding I grabbed my purse causing him to chuckle.

"Come on let's get going,"

"After you," August said and I raised her eyebrow towards him.

"Being polite or trying to stare at my ass?"

"A lil bit a both ain't neva hurt nobody." I couldn't help the small smile that escaped it's hiding place before grabbing my light sweater off the coat rack and walking out the house letting August follow behind. In front of my house was August's Ferrari 458 and I couldn't help but admire the beautiful piece of car. I mean, damn!

"You gon' stare at it all day or you gon hop in," August asked scaring the hell outta me. I didn't bother to respond as I slipped into the car and relaxed against the seats. He hopped inside and started the engine quickly before pulling out and speeding down the road.

"So, why ya ass so damn stuck up?" August asked as we pulled up to a red light. I turned to face him and took notice of his outfit. He was wearing camouflage shorts and a white wifebeater. Sexy, yet casual.

"Stuck up? I am not stuck up,"

"Then why won't you just admit that ya want me? Shit, it'll make ya life so much easier."

"First of all, I don't want you August." He grinned but let me finish "And secondly how would it make my life easier?"

The light switches to green and August steps onto the gas sending us back down the road before he replies, not removing his eyes from the road. "If ya just admit that ya do in fact want a youngin' you could leave ole boy and spare both yall feelins."

"You know, you are so full of yourself."

"Well, I'm givin ya tha' chance to be full of me too," I shot him a death glare and he busted into laughter. "Lighten up lil mama, damn, doesn't being stuck up all the time get tiring."

"I am not stuck up," August pulled into Nikki and Trey parking spot and shut off the engine. He turned to stare at me giving me an intense look and I did the same back. We held each other's gazes never breaking eye contact and I could feel myself being drawn closer to August.

"Admit you want me."

"Admit you're losing your mind." August pulled back before leaning back in his seat

"Ya' know... Making you want me is going to be fun and as easy as beatin' one of Nedra's lil kid games."

"Game on"
