Tasha POV
So me and Ryanna were at my house to do homework. While we were doing our homework, I was sitting by my window smoking.
Ryanna: so how's Ronnie
Me: he's fine. What's the answer to question 22?
Ryanna: there r only 6 questions. U need get off that stuff.
Me: shut up. Tell me y Ronnie was like meet me at the rec center at 5:30.
Ryanna: ain't the boys practice at 5.
Me: yea. What if they meet?
Ryanna:yea u need to stop smoking that shit cuz u sound dumb paranoid. What happened to my boss ass bitch best friend?
Me:whateva.
Ryanna:yea u still coming to the boys practice today
Me:yea I want support my friends Ricky Ralph and Bobby
Ryanna: okay. I still can't believe he hit u. That was such a bitch move.
We finish our homework like some scholars. Then I sprayed down the room.
Me: yo u ready to go. We r late
Ryanna: yea.
We left the house and started walking to the rec center. When we got there the boys were just sitting there talking.
Me: where's Brookes
Mike: well I think..
I cut him off
Me: i ain't ask for ur opinion
Mike(getting up): who the fuck u think u talking to
Ralph: we're not doing this again.
I rolled my eyes. Me and Ryanna sat on the two chairs in the front of the room. I looked at the time and was about to say good to everyone, when Brooke came in with RONNIE.
I look at Ryanna and she looked at me.
Mr. Brooke: this is the new member of New Edition. This my nephew Ronnie.
Ricky looked at me mouth wide open.
Ricky: OH shit
Ronnie: hey Ryanna hey..
I cut him off
Me: hi my name is Tasha
Ronnie: I already know that
Me(whispering): no u dont
Ronnie looked at me. Then Ricky cleared his throat. Thank god the awkwardness was bothering me.
Ricky: Hey, I'm Tasha's cousin, Ricky
Me(pointing to them):yea this is Ralph and this Bobby. Oh and that's Mike.
Mr. Brooke:great now that everyone's introduced. Lets get to work.
Ronnie looks at me.
Ronnie(pecks my lips): I gotta go babe
Mike looks at us immediately. He starts to get angry.
Me: okay boo.
No one POV
Ronnie goes next to Ralph. Ricky moves next to Mike.
Ricky(whispers to Mike): try something I dare u
While the practice was going on Ronnie and Tasha were making faces at each other. Mike was getting sick of it. He had to tell him about her.
After practice
The girls left to go to Tyrone's house to babysit Tia. While the boys were walking Ronnie to the bus stop.
Mike POV
I gotta say something
Me: Yo Ron
Ronnie: wassup man
Me: Tasha's ya girl
Ronnie: yea y
Me: nothing
Ricky: we just met him. Don't be starting shit
Ronnie: what do u mean
Mike:she was wit me while she was wit u
Ronnie(getting mad): u were wit my girl
Ronnie came at me but Ricky and Bobby held him back.
Bobby: Ronnie don't entertain him. He just mad that he have her all to himself
Ricky: yea man. He's crazy
Ralph was just standing there listening to the whole thing
Ralph: Yo he is crazy. Did u know he slapped her.
I look Ronnie straight on the eyes
Mike: yea i slapped that bitch and I fucked her
All hell broke loose. Ronnie got out of Bobby and Ralphs grip and tackled me down to the ground kicking and punching me. I knew I was wrong but he just deserved to know. Ronnie walked off mad.
Ronnie gets home and calls Tyrone's house since Tasha gave him the number.
Tasha: hello

I hung up the phone. Ronnie seemed upset or something. I go to the bathroom and fix my clothes.
Then I went back to Ryanna and Tia.
Ryanna: where u going
Me: no where. Ronnie is coming over
Ryanna: none of this. I ain't tryna be the third wheel
I get up to get Tia's bottle off the counter and gave it to Tia.
Me: u not gonna be the third wheel
Ryanna: y'all betta doing nothing. We ain't tryna traumatize the child
I hear the door bell. I let Ronnie in. He looked at me wit so much disgust. I look at him confused. He sits on the couch while me and Ryanna sits on the floor playing wit Tia.
Ronnie: so this is little Tia
Ryanna: yea
Me: what's wrong
Ronnie: Mike
I look at Ryanna wit wide eyes
Ryanna: I'm gonna put Tia down for nap.
I look at her like "don't leave me" she picks up Tia and walks into Tia's room. I get up and sit on couch next to him
Me: what'd he do
Ronnie: he was telling me lies
Me: i gotta wash Tia's toys
I get up to go to the kitchen and he follows me. I get to the counter and look at him while I get Tia's bottles. I start the dishes
Me: what'd he say
Him(chuckling): this might sound stupid but he said that u were with him
Me: yea I'm with him all the time
