August's Pov
Its 4 in the morning and she doesn't want to get up. Well neither of us do. Its 4 in the morning.
Me: Baby c'mon you have to get up.
Imani: I don't wanna.
Me: But we have a flight to catch.
Imani: Why so early?
Me: We have a lot to do in New York.
Imani: We?
Me: Mhmm. Me and you.
Imani: Okay.
Me: Now get up baby.
Imani: Okayyyy.
She got up and then we went to go get a shower. Then we got out, grabbed our stuff, and left.
When we got on the plane, she sat with me and leaned on me.
Sneak: Damn you dragging her with you?
Me: Yeah. Is that a problem?
Sneak: No. So Imani I heard you used to go through dudes like money at a strip club.
Imani: That was before I found someone to make me happy.
Sneak: How many dudes did you go through?
Imani: Quite a few. But I cut all of them off because I don't have any use for them when I have this man right here.
She kissed me and I kissed her back.
Sneak: I love how hoes put up a front.
Me: What the fuck did you just say about my girl?
Sneak: Your girl is a fucking garden tool.
Me: Hold up. You ain't bout to sit here and bad mouth my girl. Just because she talked to different dudes before me, it doesn't make her a hoe.
Sneak: She's a hoe. I don't care what you say.
Me: Man what's your problem?
Sneak: What makes him so much better than me? I asked you out 2 years ago and you told me no.
Me: He asked you out?
Sneak: Yeah. I asked her out and I fucked her.
Me: You fucked him?
Imani: No. He's lying.
Me: I don't think he would lie about something like that Imani.
Imani: And I wouldn't lie to you.
Me: I'm gonna sit in the back. I need my space.
Imani: Baby......
Me: Just let me have my space Imani! Damn.
I left and sat in the back of the plane. Who the hell am I supposed to believe? My best friend or the woman I have fallen so deeply for?

Imani's Pov
Sneak: What's wrong with you?
Me: You are such a filthy liar.
Sneak: You ain't nothing but a hoe with class.
I've had it with him so I just got up and slapped him.
Sneak: You little bitch.
Me: I'm not the one crying.
Sneak: What makes him so different that you said no to me and everyone else? What is it?
Me: I love him. I'm in love with him. He treats me like a queen and makes me feel complete. I feel nothing but happiness with him. No man has ever treated me the way he does. I don't want anyone but him. You may not like it, but I don't care. I don't care about what you or anyone else may think. I love him.
I hope Sneak isn't the reason I lose the man I love.
