"I don't want you talking to that nigga anymore" Dame said sternly

" But me and Tae are just fr-"

" I don't give a fuck, I don't want you talking to Tae, going over his house, shit, I don't even want you looking at him" Damien continue to talk as we made our way down the road.

" Okay" I said quietly as I shifted my head towards the window.

" And why you wearing that short ass dress?" I rolled eyes and picked up my phone.

" Oh, so now you ignoring me?" We arrived at a red light

" No, I just don't like being controlled" I mumbled.

He continue to stare at me until the light was green. I was beyond pissed. Not only did I just deal with Sabrina's bullshit but now Dame is trying to pull me away from Tae.

He pulled up to Chickfila and got over to the drive thru.

" What do you want?" He ask

I looked at him and rolled my eyes.

" Oh so you got an attitude now?" He looked over at me but I didn't acknowledge him.

After he got his food he drove me home. before I could even get out his truck he locked it.

" Why did you lock the door? I gotta go!" I struggled to open the door

" Are you mad because I told you not to talk to goofy ass Dontae?"

" No" I look down and feel kinda ashamed that I lied

" You know what?" He unlocked the door "Call me when you get your shit together"

I got out his car and purposely slammed it. He sped off as I walked away.

I opened the door and thankfully no one was home. I did my two packets of review and took a little nap.

An Hour Later

I woke up and immediately went downstairs to the kitchen. I grabbed a pan and some bread and cheese. I started to cook myself a grilled cheese sandwich.

As I cooked I heard the tv turn on in the living room. I ignored it because I didn't wanna burn my sandwich.

I flipped it over to the other side and I felt breathing on my neck. I turned around quickly and found Dontae smiling.

" What the fuck are you doing here? How you get in?" I yelled

" I was coming to pick you up and you didn't answer your phone so I came over, and your door was open so" he shrugged his shoulders

" Well, you can't be here" i turned around and flipped my grilled cheese on to my plate.

" You gonna make me one?"

" No Dontae, you have to leave, now. I can't talk to you anymore" I grabbed my plate and walked into the dining room.

" You can't talk to me? Why?" He followed me into the dining room
