Sincere

I sighed and banged on his door. I can't believe I'm standing here on his porch steps but this just has to stop. I can't keep letting his Coach think he's going to get away with black mailing me when Trey and I aren't together anymore. It's not fair what he's putting me through, it's never been, but it's worse now that I want nothing to do with him and Trey.

Trey pulled the door open and immediately got an attitude once he got sight of me. "What's up? What are you doing here?" He asked, folding his arms.

"I need to talk to you about something, Can I come inside?" I asked but he quickly shook his head no. "Nah you can stay right here." I rolled my eyes. "C'mon Trey. Can we stop acting immature for once? I know we just broke up the other day but I really need to speak to you about something serious and I need to come inside of your house," I folded my arms.

I know Trey didn't want me here and I didn't want to be here either but I needed to talk to Trey about Coach Corbin. He wasn't going to blackmail me when I wasn't even with Trey anymore. He sighed and moved over some so I could come in but it was just enough space for me. "Come in then Sincere," He said.

I sighed and scooted past him and made my way to the closest room that was near his door. I sat slide into a seat at his kitchen table and waited for him to sit down too. "So, what'd you need to talk about?" He asked sitting down across from me. "You know how the two of us broke up?" I asked, trying to jog his memory but I'm sure he hasn't forgotten. 

He scoffed. "Yeah. I remember. It was only two days ago. How could I forget my girlfriend breaking up with me to go back with her baby Daddy?" He asked sarcastically. I rolled my eyes. "I told you when before we got together that I'm always going to be in love with Effrin and nobody else. I told you I could never see myself being with someone other than him for a long time," I replied.

"Then you shouldn't have played me like a damn fool." I sighed. "Alright. I admit that I did and I apologize for that but you can't say I completely played you when you knew. You can't put the blame on me like you were completely oblivious the entire time," I told him. "You're right but you still shouldn't have done it." "I was lonely, alright? I needed companionship while Effrin was gone and you were there. I'm sorry."

"Yeah. Whatever. Can we get back to what why you came over?" He asked. I could tell by the sound of his voice that he was getting annoyed with me but he was the one who kept things going about our break up. "First, before I talk about that I want you to know that I didn't come over to argue with you. I just wanted to tell you another reason why we broke up."

"Well tell me." "As long as you agree not to argue with me and to be cordial with me from here on out," I said. He rolled his eyes. "I'll think about it. Just tell me what's going on." "Well, your Coach had been blackmailing me and he still is. I was too afraid to say anything to you because I didn't want my actions to affect your career but now that we aren't together I can't continue to have him stalking me."

He sighed and sat back in his seat. "You know, I always suspected that the two of you were sleeping together, especially once I got those pictures of you in that lingerie dancing for him," He said. "It was all a scheme to get revenge on him. I met him at his office early one morning and I seduced him by dancing while he drank some Hennessy that I had put sleeping pills into. I stole his phone with the pictures he had of me but there were more." 

"Why was it so important to get those pictures back from him?" He asked. "Because they were pictures of me doing some things I shouldn't have been doing with some people that should have been behind bars years ago. I just let him blackmail me because I didn't want to jeopardize your career or ruin the lives of the other innocent people who could have gone to jail, only because they needed a way to support their families."
