"You said you got me so I need to know that no matter what happens you will. You wouldn't let anything happen to me right?"

"This shit is nice." Taj said plopping onto my new couch in my apartment.

After they came back Masiah and I decided on not saying anything. We figured we'd wait a while before announcing that we were together. Even though it was hard not to touch or kiss eachother in public we've been doing a good job at hiding it.

"Stop plopping on it like that. I just got the shit and you gonna break it already." I snapped mushing his head and Joy laughed.

Me Joy Taj and Masiah sat in my apartment celebrating my newfound independence I was happy to be making progress down here. A month ago nobody would've been able to tell me I would be living like this with a man I've always wanted and all my family around.

"Ima get a job cause I kinda want my kitchen black and I need money for renovations." I looked at my white colored kitchen that didn't look very modern.

"I still don't want you paying your own bills until your done with school you hear me? I don't wanna hear about you going out to get a job I know how your stubborn ass is. If you need something I got it." I rolled my eyes and nodded.

Taj insisted he payed all my bills and that I focused on school which was what I wanted to do even though I wanted a job so I could do for myself. I wasn't complaining though.

"Good Ima make sure you straight don't worry." He said then changed the subject.

"How was it when I was gone we ain't really get to talk about it. Y'all wasn't at eachothers heads right?" He said and we both looked at Masiah who seemed nonchalant then I looked towards Joy since I had told her what had happened.

"We chilled." Masiah shrugged.

"Y'all ain't have no problems?"

"N-no it was fine." He chuckled scrunching up his face playfully. And I mentally face palmed myself for stuttering over my words.

"Why you stuttering for..something happened?" I looked down because I couldnt lie to him but I knew how over protective he was and I didn't want him to be mad at me or Masiah.

"What happened? You acting like y'all fucked or something." He chuckled but frowned when nobody laughed along.

"You fucked my cousin?" Taj said looking at Masiah who stayed silent. His eyes widened.

"You fucked my cousin!?" He said charging towards Masiah but I jumped infront of him knowing Taj wouldn't make a move with me in the way.

"Nigga you said you trusted her with someone like me why you tripping?" He yelled from behind me. I was much smaller than him so Taj could get to him if he wanted but I know he wouldn't seeming how close they were. He wouldn't put hands on his brother.

"It sounded good at the moment I didn't know that would happen so soon. Y'all used a condom?" I looked down and he dramatically put his hand to his head as he looked at Masiah in disgust.

"You had your soilders marching in my cousin man?"

"We were caught up we were kissing and touching and then he-"

"Alijah!" He yelled not wanting to hear anymore and I shut up.

"We didn't use condoms but we were careful."
