Chilez p.o.v

"Yeah bro, she straight dissed me. I don't understand why people don't believe me when I say I've changed." "That's because you haven't," laughed my bestfriend Trey. We've known each other since diapers and have been friends since we could walk. I consider him my blood. "But I have T, I know I have. And you of all people should know how hard it was for me. I wasn't used to 'relationships' && I especially wasn't used to all the mushy shit that comes along with it." Before Trey could even respond I seen Miracle walking with a group of girls who I'd never seen before. "I'll catch you later bro, text me when you figure out what's the move for tonight," I tell Trey as I dap him up. "Aight," and with that I headed towards Miracle's direction. I think she noticed me coming because she tried to hurry away with her friends, but me being athletic and in shape, I caught up pretty easily. "Never took you as the running type," I spoke up. "Never took you as the cheating type, nah who am I kidding? You look like you only care bout your well being. You walk around like you're 'the shit' and you fuck different girls on a daily. You toy around with their feelings and hearts and have them hoping to get a call or even a text from you and it never happens. I refuse to be one of those girls so if you think you can get something from me then think again 'cause I ain't no average bitch." Her words lingered in the air like debris. I'm both stunned and hurt by Miracle's words because for one, they're partially true and two? I never expected her to go off on me like that. After what felt like hours of her friends mugging me and Miracle standing there expectantly I finally grew the balls to speak up. "Try me." She looks at me and says, "What?" I smirked, "You heard me, try me. Everyone always thinks they have me figured out, and you're one of them. I really like you and I want you to give me a chance. You will never know for yourself if you don't try. You only know what others have told you and the little that I've chose to speak on. Not saying that majority of the things you said wasn't true, but I'm a strong believer in changes. I don't know about you but I do think that I am fully capable of being in a committed relationship with somebody. With you." And with that, I walked off leaving her with loads to think about. If she wanted to take that chance then she had my number. If not then I guess I would just take that L.

Miracle's p.o.v

I've been thinking a lot about what Chilez said. Her words continued to play in my head. "Try me." There's no denying the fact that I'm extremely attracted to her, I just know how I am. I know I'm vulnerable at times and I fall entirely too easily. I know I give too much if myself to people who don't deserve it even when I know full well that they don't deserve me. Is it safe to say that I'm scared? My thoughts are interrupted by my phone vibrating. "Hello?" I didn't look at the caller ID so I was more than surprised when I heard my bestfriend's voice on the other end. "OMG heeyyyy Mo! I've missed you so muchhh. How's school been going? I mean I know you haven't really been there long but I know changes are hard for you. Have you met any sexy dudes there? Well not dudes because you're gay of course bu-" "Okay okay Rachell, slow down. School is fine and I've been adjusting pretty well. And there's this girl I'm interested in.. Or at least was but I don't think we'd work out." "Aww Mo! We should go to this party tonight. I heard its gonna be liiiiive," said Rachell. I couldn't help but laugh at my bestfriend's goofiness. "I'll go with you if you promise not to embarrass me." The last time we went out Rachell got sloppy drunk and long story short we ended up in a jail cell for the night. "I promise. No more drinking for me. Besides, my mans gonna be there." I cringe at the thought of my bestfriend's boyfriend. He's super ugly but he makes her happy && if she's happy then that's all that matters. "Okay, see you in a bit." And with that I hang up. At least I can get my mind off Chilez for a while.

As we walked in my chest was booming because of the intensity of the bass. Broccoli, D.R.A.M ft. Lil Yatchy, was playing as we entered the club. "Ayeee, this my shit," screamed Rachell as she began dancing. I couldn't help but laugh at my friend's ratchetness, I love her so much. I'm soon pulled out of my thoughts when Trey, Rachell's boyfriend, walks up. "Wessup Miracle? Hey baby," he says as him and Rachell engage in a full blown make out session. I told them I was goin to get a drink so I could get away from their nasty selves. As soon as I turned around I bumped into someone and ended up falling on my butt. "Im sorry, let me help you," said the person I bumped into. And as of my plan to escape the thought of Chilez couldn't get any worse it did. "I'm going to file a restraining order on you if you keep stalking me," I told her as she helped me up. She chuckled a bit then looked me in my eyes for what felt like enternity. "Nah, I think this is fate. And you should never question fate," she replied, still holding my hands. Before I could even process what was coming out of my mouth I said,"I want you." I don't know if my sudden confidence came from the two shots Rachell made me take before we left the apartment or the way Chilez hands felt on mine, the way her eyes were piercing into me as if she was peering into my soul. But even after I realized what I had said I didn't feel any regrets about my words. I want her.
