Best Friends... Always?

New Year

:Dre's POV:

I stood there and watched her walk out. I was confused to why she started acting like this. I finally walked out of the guest room when I heard the front door close. I stood in my doorway looking at Ashanti. She was concentrating on her phone and sitting on my bed. "Sorry about that." I finally said walking in. "Oh it's okay did I do something though?" she looked confused. "No you did nothing." I sat beside her. "Good." she turned to me. "Soo." she kicked her feet. "Ye-" she reached over and started kissing me. I kissed back running my fingers through her hair. I laid back with her now on top of me. "Ehm." I heard Saige clear her throat. Ashanti moved off me and looked down. What is it with her and kissing? I sat up and looked at Saige. "Yes?" I grabbed my remote. "Where's my buddy Monae?" she looked behind her. "She left." I mumbled. "Why?" she raised an eyebrow looking at Ashanti. "She wanted to go home." I looked at her. "Mhm sure that was the reason." she walked away.

:Monae's POV:

What the hell is wrong with me? I walked on the boardwalk and sat on a bench. Was I jealous that Dre had someone. I shook the thoughts from my head as someone sat beside me. "Are you stalking me?" I looled straight ahead. "No, but I do work across the street and it's my break." Zay said leaning back. I turned the other way and shielded my eyes from the sun. "So why are you ignoring my calls?" he grabbed my hand. "I'm not I'm helping your girlfriend to not have a cheater as a boyfriend and I don't do drama." I pulled my hand away. "We're just friends." he smirked. I wanted to punch him dead in the mouth. "Wow is that a famous line or something? If that's your girlfriend why deny it?" I looked at him. "What?" he looked at me. "Nothin." I shook my head. "Why are you still trying to talk to me anyways?" I watched people walk by. "We were friends I didn't think Layla affected our relationship. I snapped my head in his direction. "Really? Dude you led me on to think more than just friends." I put air quotes. "No I didn't." he looked the other way. "Wow well nice talking to you Zay." I stood up and walked away. "Wait Monae I'm sorry ok?" he grabbed my arm looking down at me. "Save your sorry for your girlfriend when she goes through your phone and see how many times you've called me." I snatched my arm away and walked to my truck. I saw a missed call from an unknown number. I cleared it off my notifications and started the truck. I didn't want to go home just yet so I called Christy. "Where are you?" I asked as soon as Christy answered. "At home why?" she closed a door. "I need something to do I'm bored." I stopped at a red light. "Uhm weren't you at Dre's?" she asked. "Mhm." I said looking out the window. "Why aren't you still there did thay chick show up?" she sounded irritated. "Yupp. I left to give them some alone time." I pulled off from the light. "Yea sure, but you could come over here?" she sounded happy again. "Okay." I hung up the phone and headed towards her house.

Weeks had gone by and it was the night before the first day of school. To much had happened and I'm pretty sure it wasn't about to end just yet. I walked out my bathroom with my toothbrush in my mouth and checked my phone. "Why?" I heard come from outside my door. I turned my head and saw no one there. "That still doesn't explain why?" I walked out my room and stopped at Caylen's door. "No don't do that!" she screamed then brought her voice down. "I'll talk to you another time." I was confused. I walked back into my room and looked through my closet. I found an outfit and laid in on my bed. "Nice pick." I saw Bre standing in my doorway. "Thanks." I smiled and walked past her. I knocked on Adrian's door. "What!?" she yelled. "I'm not driving you tomorrow so don't ask." I smiled when she opened the door. "Rude." she looked at Bre. "Nope." Bre said and walked away. "You have a car drive it, you drove it all summer." I looked at her. "I know I just don't really like driving to school." she threw her head back. I shook my head and walked back to my room. I came in just in time ti see a call from Dre. "Hello." I said picking my clothes up. "I'm gonna need a ride tomorrow. " Dre said. I pulled the phone away from my ear and looked at it. "Uhm no you don't I remember you gave up my rides at the hospital." I laid my clothes on my chair and sat on the bed. "Oh yea." he said and it got quiet. I waited for him to say something, but he didn't. "It's okay Dre yo-" he cut me off, "You're not mad are you?" he said softly. "No why would I be?" I picked at my shorts. "I don't know I just thought thay maybe you were starting to-" "Andre get down here!" I heard his mom yell. He sighed and spoke, "I'll talk to you tomorrow. " he said before hanging up.
