Boujee || The Weeknd

When I opened my eyes I noticed that the room was still dark, and there was something underneath me. I lifted my head to look at what I was on. I quickly moved off when I noticed that it was Abel.

I sat up on the bed and looked around at the dark room. The windows were shut which is why the light wasn't in.

I checked the time, it read 9:00am. Jade should be here right about now so I decided to get up and start getting dressed.

I looked at Abel to see that he was sound asleep. Him and Aubrey probably stayed up late.

I didn't try to be quiet or move slowly as I got out of bed. To be honest I didn't really care if he woke up.

I decided to go downstairs to turn the coffee maker on so when I get out of the shower it'll be ready.

As soon as I opened the door the smell of weed hit me.

"Ugh! Abel I told you, I don't like the smell of weed in the apartment!" Without thinking I turned to Abel with an angry expression.

His eyes fluttered opened and he sat up while rubbing his eyes.

"I haven't heard that in a while." his voice still raspy from just waking up.

I swallowed a gulp that was in my throat. I had caught myself from what I was saying. For a second I forgot that it was a year ago.

I rolled my eyes. "I'm taking a shower." I said while grabbing my phone then I walked to the restroom.

Once in the restroom I quickly showered and dried myself off once I was done.

I looked at myself in the mirror and stared for a second.

I hadn't applied any makeup, and I looked almost young.

I know I'm barely 19 but I always made myself look older. Right now I looked younger than I try to be.

Abel hasn't tried anything on me really, and I appreciate that to the fullest. But I'm scared of making the same mistake I did last time.

I always told myself I would never fall for him. After a few months of pretending for the cash and lying to his face saying I loved him, something changed.

I did gain feelings for Abel. It could have been the fact he gave me anything I asked for. It could have just been me being the crazy 18 year old I was. But I did fall for him, and he knows that.

But when I caught him cheating, it wouldn't have hurt me if it was the old Valerie who caught him, the one that didn't care. Of course at the time he cheated, it was the time I started to feel something for him.

Now I know not to do something dumb like that. I don't care about him like that anymore.

After a good 10 minutes of just staring at myself I pulled out my makeup and started to do my makeup.
