Everything is changing and I never wanna go back to the way it was (to the way it was)

I'm finding who I am and who I am from here and now is gonna be enough (is gonna be enough)

Is gonna be enough

I'll never be that girl again

No oh oh

My innocence is wearin' thin

But my heart is growing strong

So call me, call me, call me

Miss movin' on

Oh oh oh

Miss movin' on

Jalia's POV

It's been good knowing that I'm in a relationship and not really thinking about Que.So Kia brought up that she and I should move into a off-campus apartment so we can have bigger space well I agreed to it.Now we are moving into our apartment, well I am with tha help of Shawn since Kia couldnt get tha day off and Levi is out at performing. This dance is fuckin up our relationship, we hardly spend time with each other and knowing valentines day is in three days he better do a lot for me or then we really gon have some problems. I pulled up into the apartment complex and parked my black four door car into a parking spot. I raised down tha windows a lil bit and turned off tha ignition. I looked over out my window and seen the movers in the Weekend's Only truck. They delivering our furniture since we really didn't have any at the school apartments but a couch and table set. The school provided us with the beds and kitchen stuff. I got out tha car and walked over to greet them. We walked upstairs to our apartment & let them in to start moving things in. I jogged down stairs and seen Shawn*pic on the side* leanin up against the hood of my car. "hey Shawn." I smiled and hugged him. "wass up u ready to get moving?" he asked endin our hug. We have gotten closer over tha past few weeks since I started tutoring him. We are in a best friend / bother stage & it's gonna stay like that. "yea the movers are takin things up now." I motioned to the two that were taking what looks like a bed piece out the truck. "that's cool, we can sit outchea and chill til dey finish." he suggested. I was gon do dat anyways. I smirked. "right cuse it's too hot outchea." I complained. "nigga look watcha got on." he looked then laughed at my outfit. I stepped back and placed my hands in my grey PINK sweatpants. "I thought it was gon be cold like it was last mouth." I said takin my hoodie off relieving my white v-neck. "it was only cold for two weeks."he said "ya need to start lookin at da weather." he added. I understand that but I wasn't thinking I just put on wat I found. "I'll do that tomorrow." I said. he flashed his nice million dollar smile. He's just so cute, & he knows it & he also knows I have a boyfriend and he respects that too.

After the movers were done setting up the furniture, they left and it was our turn to move my boxes up to tha apartment. "damn suh u got a lotta clothes." Shawn complained walkin up the steps. "it's not my fault."i said in my defense. I walked into my room and notice they set up my bed set. I placed the box I was caring by the window. Shawn came back up with two boxes. "damn somebody strong." I joked walkin out tha apartment. He yelled sum to me but I ain't here him. I went back down tha steps and notices a all black car. what's up with all black cars, I seen I a lot today. I went into my trunk and pulled out a suit case. "I'll get dat lil ugly." Shawn said walkin up on me to get da suitcase. He went upstairs. "suh watcha doing here.?" a familiar voice said. I turned around & seen Tevin gettin out tha car. I looked over & seen Jacquees gettin out da passenger seat & Chris out tha back seat. "My friend & I just got tha room across from u." I said leaning up against my car. "y'all having a house warming party?." he asked. I shrugged my shoulders. "ion know maybe , but if we do you'll be da first to know." I held up my index finger for first. Tevin looked over at Chris & gave him a head nod.I guess that's dats dey signal for sum shit. They walked off and Que came around to my car. "So wats up?" He asked crossing his arms. "ion know u tell me." I said back squiting my eyes from the hot sun. "I ain't see ya since we feel asleep togetha."He said. I looked down feeling guilty. "yea I know. Que-" "Ja-" he said accidentally cuttin me off. We both smiled. "you first." I insisted.

Jacquees' POV

We both smiled. "you first." she insisted.

"I'm sorry for everything that been goin on wit us.I blame myself , we could of been in a relationship by now if it wasn't for me being stubborn and actin like an asshole. It's takin me a lot ta tell ya dis cuse ya know it takes me awhile ta express my feelings. " I walked closer to her. "I know u got feeling for me deeper den friendship and I got em fo ya too. If we don't get a chance to be ina relationship just know I'm in love witcha." I grabbed her hands and pulled it close to my mouth and kissed em. I just needed to get that out my mind before i exploded. I'm glad I listened to my momma cuse know I feel good. even though ion know what she gon say ,I just know I feel good about myself.

"que, why now?" she pulled back her arms. "I wasn't ready then." I told ha being honest. she shook her head no. "no,no this wasn't suppose to happen like this." she whined. "happen like wat.?" I asked ha. "this, us, u expressing ya feelings now." her hands paced back n forth between her and me. "it's better now then later, remember ya told me that." I said

"ya I know Que, but..." she looked down and looked back up to me. "I'm in a relationship now." she said. Damn I feel like I just been shot in da heart. "are u fuckin serious.?" I asked her rubbing my hands across my face. she shook her head yea "when?" I asked her. "when we feel asleep together." she said lookin without lookin into my eyes. "you so wild Jalia." I said disappointed.

"Que, I'm not wild it's just tha fact that I was tired of waiting on ya.i-" "naw ion wanna here it."i cut her off. "naw don't do that. I'm not finished. I been waitin on you to speak up since u broke my damn virginity. I'm 19 bout to be 20 , I can't wait no more for you. It was my time to move on."She snapped and crossed her arms. I been doing my own thang since back den, I had feelings for her back den but I was young and wanted to enjoy like. I wanna do that know but with her. "iight I'll respect dat." I told her. "Aye Jalia, you wanna go get sum to eat?." A dude asked her joggin down tha steps. She looked over. "yea ina mintue." she answered. "I'll be in da car." he walked over to I'm guessing is his car. "dats ya nigga?." I asked "que it's not-" "save it ion wanna here it." I cut her off again. I shook my head and walked away up to Tevin's room this nigga won't believe want happen.

Jalia's POV

I slowly got into Shawn's car, closed tha door and put tha seat belt on. I cupped my hands over my face and began to cry.Why is he puttin me in this situation he should of known I was talkin to sumbody den he comes and expresses his feelings. "are u gon be ok."Shawn asked me. He is so sweet. "nooo." I cried out. "he don't want me anymore." I managed to get out. Shawn rubbed my back. "was dat da nigga who was ya bestfriend?" he asked me. I shook my head yea "and now he don't want nun to do wit me , since I got a boyfriend.." i managed to get thru my cries. Shawn wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into a hug. "no he just a nigga Lia, he gon come around wen he got out his feelings. I know cuse ima nigga, & I been thru wat he going thru." he told me tryin to make me feel better. "he told me he loves me. I been wanting to hear that for years now." I wiped my eyes. He finally told me he loves me & wants to be more then friends & here I am in a relationship. "how bout we go to da store get ice cream & cookies come back to tha apartment & watch funny movies to get ya mind off things." He suggested. I shook my head yea. "Jalia ikno y'all been friends for a long time , but u in a relationship it was time for u to move on." He told me pullin out tha parking lot. I know he is right it was time for me to explore my options.I couldn't wait for Que , but hearing those words just made me feel complete. Knowing how he really feels about me.Even though I feel tha same way I am in a relationship with a person I like. It was time for me to move on...
