Must Love Malak Watson

Chapter Twelve

TRE POV

I wake up the next morning on the couch. I look around and see everyone surrounding Nya, looking at something. "What y'all looking at?" I ask while going over to them. Nya quickly turns off her phone. "Lemme see" I state while grabbing her phone. "Boy, gimme my stuff" Nya says then she grabs it out my hand. "Just lemme see" I say. "Fine" She puts in her password and faces the screen to me. All I see is nudes. "Malak got Laila to expose you😬" River says.

"All of y'all get tf out and dont hit my line no more" I yell at them. They all get their stuff and get out except Jalen. He goes to his room. I dont even know what to say. But I gotta think of something to do. I can't just let him expose me. I'm glad its Saturday so I dont have to face anyone at school yet.

LAILA POV

I wake up and see Malak laying beside me, on my phone. "Malak whatchu doing" I whine while facing him. "I needed it for something" he answers simply. "Whatever but how you know my password?" I ask. "Why would you make it the day we got together?" He laughs. "We should go over to Tre's house" I suggest. "No let's NOT go" Malak states. "Whyyy" I whine. "Cause he's a bxtch, a fake one" He finally says. "How? Aren't y'all like bros or whatever?" I ask.

"Nah he wanted to call me emotional and try to fight me, saying he got dirt on me. I'm just not gone f*ck wit him no more" Malak explains. "😬Both my best friends getting into a argument" I say. "Baby you better not choose his side" Malak states rudely. "I won't, chill"

"So the squad not gone be a whole group anymore cause people gone pick sides" I realize. "Nah cause when I see him-" Malak begins. "Nope you not finna fight him" I say. My phone goes off and I see a text message from Nya.

Cuzzo©💯: Face time me, we gotta talk

Laila👑❤: Aight

I request a call with her and she picks it up. "What you wanna talk to me about?" I ask her. "Wassup Ny" Malak says and sticks his face in the camera. "Hey" She replies. "Okay, but anyways, you know about the fight or whatever?" She starts. I nod my head. "So their already taking sides and the squads gonna HAVE to split up" she explains. "Who took whose side?" Malak asks. "Um so Me and Nadia took your side" She says as she points at Malak. "Noah said he's gonna try to stay out of it but he said he knows that Tre is wrong" She informs us. "Yea, Tre was wrong" I mumble. "Yea but I gotta talk to you later, oh by the way were gonna go to the Northeast mall at 12:00" She yells us. "Ok, bye cuzzo" I say as Malak waves bye to her. She ends the call and I look at Malak.

"Well then" I simply say. "Noah bout fake than a bxtch" Malak says. "Baby just calm down, y'all arguing over nothing anyway" I say. "Why would he say I'm emotional but when him and Andrea broke up he was crying like a ho-"

"Leave him alone😂" I cut him off. "Aye, its true" He puts his hands up in surrender. I get up and change into black joggers and a pink crop top. Then I put my hair in a bun and put on my Nike slides. "You wanna ask my momma to take you to yo house so you can change?" I ask Malak.

"Yea" He answers while getting up. We walk downstairs and I knock on my moms door. No one answers. I guess she not here. "How we gone get to the Mall?" I ask Malak as he laughs at me. "Its not funny, how you gone fight Tre" I say.

"We can call my dad, he might be at home" Malak suggests. "Well call him"

He calls him and he says he'll be over here in 10 minutes. "He not gone wanna take you back home, you know that right" I remind him. His dad dont really like leaving the house but sometimes he does.
