*June's p.o.v*
An awkward silence settled in the atmosphere as I twirled my straw in my drink, absent-mindedly staring at the water in my cup.
"The food here is really good," Melvin sounded, causing me to lift my head and look at him. I almost forgot he was even here with me. "Have you been here before?".
"No,".
I dropped my gaze to my water again, sighing under my breath. I thought about August. I wanted to be him, right now. I glanced down at my phone, noticing the time read 7:32.
"Are you thinking about him?" Melvin asked, his smile faltered.
"Thinking about who?" I questioned.
"August," He hissed.
"No, I'm just a little tired," I lied, adding in a fake yawn. "I was up all night grading papers,".
"I think you'll really like the paper I wrote," He said, taking a sip of water from his cup. "I don't wanna talk about school though. Tell me about yourself,".
I slouched in my seat, looking over at him.
"It isn't really necessary for me to tell you about myself,".
"I think it is," Melvin smiled, leaning forward in his seat. "That's usually what people do on dates,".
I leaned forward too, a harsh frown smeared on my face.
"This isn't a date,".
"It is June, and if you want to keep your little relationship with August a secret I suggest you try to enjoy our little date,".
"What are you getting out of blackmailing me anyway? Do you think I'm going to actually start to like you?".
He grinned. "Maybe? Maybe not?".
I rolled my eyes, looking over at the waitress who was nearing our table with platters of food.
***
I sighed lowly as I stepped out of the elevator and walked towards my apartment door. I noticed August was leaned against my door. I instantly smiled, walking pass him to use my key to unlock my door. Once I stepped inside, August followed behind me.
"So how was ya' date?".
I didn't know if August sounded jealous or amused, it was a mixture of both emotions in his tone of voice.
"I had a great time," I lied. "He took me to a fancy restaurant, then we went for a drive to a lake, there he kissed me and one thing led to another,".
August glared at me, his nose flaring. He looked so sexy when he was mad.
"Ya fucked that nigga?".
"I mean it just happened," I continued on with my lie.
August didn't say anything, instead he turned around, nearing my door. I chased behind him, latching on to his shoulder.
"August I was just kidding, it was terrible and he brought me home early,".
"Don't play like dat June," August hissed, towering over me. His hand reached up to push hair out of my face and behind my ear. His hand gripped my chin, lifting it up. I looked into his eyes, his beautiful dark eyes. His eyes seemed like magnets, drawing me in.
"You was gonna leave?" I whispered in his face.
"Yea,".
I meshed my lips with his, pushing him back against the wall. He took that as an opportunity to grip my ass in his hands and lift me up off the ground. Involuntarily my legs wrapped around his torso. He kissed me back hard.
"I like you August," I managed to moan in between kisses.
"Let meh show ya how much I like ya," He smiled, starting to trail kisses along my neck.
"No," I moaned, dropping my legs onto the floor. "We can't, well not right now...like this,".
He just stared at me for a couple seconds before smiling again.
"Okay,".
I looked down, feeling my cheeks rise. "You can go home now,".
"Ya don't want meh' to stay with ya?".
"You're not getting any ass August," I laughed.
He laughed too. "No funny business, I swea',".
"Fine, I'm going to bed. There's blankets in that closet over there. You can sleep on the couch,".
"I can't sleep with ya?".
"Hell no,".
