That Predicted Love Story (Princeton Fanfic)

Chapter 8

I hadn't woken up with a smile on my face in a long time. I guess the smile from last night was implanted on there pretty good. Prince stayed over an hour and we managed to speak low. When it got round late 1am, we had to pack it in. We were extra careful not to wake anybody, specially dad and Ray. I woke up round 3pm and went straight to shower. When I finally went downstairs, to my surprise, Prince was already up. How can he be up already? We decided to keep it on the low, again, so we acted like we were still hurt by what happened.

All I really wanted, was to run to him and give him some love and affection.

But, if we wanted to be happy, then the only way was to be secretive. He thought about leaving the group, but I couldn't do that to him, or the fans! Lying about this, was the best and only way. My dad is stubborn like his mama.

Entering the living room, you could sense the tension. Everyone looked at me, then back at Prince, then at Ray, then at me. I hadn't a clue as to what they were thinking, but I knew Ray was involved, and not in a good way. How do I know that? Cus of what Lil Twist had said next. "Man, I thought braids were a good protective style, never knew it would bite you and snake you out." Yes, the braids were Ray. I wanted to smile at that comment and salute Twist for saying that true comment, but I had to keep it all in.

One of these days maybe?

I went and sat with Diggy. He put his arms around me and I just lay there on his chest. He wore a vest and you can tell he was shooting some bball outside of school when a couple of guys who were up to no good...

Anywaaaaay! He smelt of BO. But he felt warm cus of it. But he smelt of BO. "You know, usually, people shower before they make themselves at home." He understood what I meant and sniffed his armpits.They were hairy. But I am seriously uber into guys with armpit hair. Gives them no excuse to act like stupid boys. He tried to make me sniff his pits, no thank you brother! I saw Prince looking at us from the corner of my eyes. Was this guy jealous? This shit cray. Diggy and I, we're just friends, and they ain't no need to read between the lines. We're best friends. Ever since MB toured with Diggy, we hit it off. But, we both knew that we would remain best friends. Tell each other everything. Prince knew that!

Diggy's my best guy friend, he knows all my secrets!

Later, when everyone was doing their own thing, Diggy and I went to the park and talked and caught up.

"Hey, I never asked you how you felt bout Prince and the whole thing. You seemed pretty pissed off." He began talking about the situation. He had to go there! i explained to him how I felt and how betrayed I felt cus of the way my dad took the situation without even talking to me and asking me how I felt.

"I don't know. Maybe he has trust issues. But all Prince and I did, was kiss. I told him never to think bout going more than that."

Diggy smiled when I said that. He'll be a good dad. Very understanding. Then, what he said to me, made me realise how much Prince and this secret was gonna effect our friendship. "So, it's strange how Prince never left when you walked in the room. Last week he wouldn't even glimpse at you and now, he's staring at you like soemthing's up?" I wanted to tell him so badly that we were dating again. I really did. I trust him, I do. But a promise is a promise. But he was my friend. I tell him everything, he does the same to me. When he got his ex pregnant, he came to me. It was hard for him to tell me, you could tell by his eyes. But he did tell me.

But, I'm not pregnant.
