Taraji's POV
The next morning I rolled outta bed and went to go pee. I didn't get far cause as soon as my feet touched the ground so did the rest of my body. My legs were numb and I couldn't even walk, so I just laid there on the floor for a good five minutes. "Thank god I have my phone." I thought to myself as I stayed on the floor.
Tyrese's POV
I woke up the next morning by the sound of a big thud. I looked to my right and Taraji wasn't by my side. I rolled outta bed and immediately started laughing. I saw Taraji laying on the floor just scrolling through her phone. "This isn't funny you idiot, pick me up!" She yelled at me and I just laughed even harder. As my laughing subsided I had to duck a flying magazine that she threw at me. "It's your damn fault I'm like this, could you at least help me up?" I just kept laughing and picked her up and took her to the bathroom.

Third person's POV
Once Taraji did what she needed to do, she walked the best she could back to the room and saw Tyrese laying in bed just scrolling through his phone. She wanted to say something but she didn't wanna ruin the moment because it honestly felt nice and almost natural being with him like this. So she just grabbed her Louis Vuitton duffle bag out the closet and started packing. "Our plane leaves in two hours."
"We you finish packing you wanna grab some breakfast?" He asked.
"Sure that's sounds good cause I'm starving."
Now at breakfast they both sat there not even looking at each other, neither one said a word. They crossed a line that they could never come back from and neither one of them wanted to admit it. Sick of the silence "I think we should talk." "We need to talk." They both say at the same time. They continued to stare at each other "Look I'll start," he said. "Last night was...— He stopped to think of the right words to say. — I ain't even gon front man, last night was great, that shit was dope!" She chuckled and hid her face in embarrassment "Tyrese I–"
"No T lemme finish. I know we always talked about never crossing that line cause we're best friends but to be honest you know how I always felt about you. And if what happened between us makes you uncomfortable I'll act like it never even happened and when can continue how we were and I'll respect whatever decision you make."
"Are you done now?" She asked with a small smirk on her face.
"Yes I think so."
She laughed lightly, "well actually I'm not uncomfortable at all with what happened. When I woke up this morning, it almost felt natural it felt good I wasn't uncomfortable at all. I felt the same way about you as well but I never said anything cause I was scared about us going to the next level fearing that I might lose my best friend behind all this."
"Us going to the next level, it's honestly all on you cause you know I've always been willing. You the one that was always fighting it. How can I say this the best way... Stop fighting it and be with me just give it a shot. Even if we don't work out you'll never lose me. We friends for life, we don't even have to have a title on this thing. Let's just–"
"See how it goes... I'm down if you are," she said cutting him off and finishing his sentence.
He smiled like a little school boy "you done made me feel like the luckiest nigga in the world."
"You're such a goofball" She smiled back at him.

Sorry if this chapter seems messy I honestly didn't know where to go after the last one and I just wanted something to fill in before I started the next one. And thanks to everyone who commented and voted :)
