"Sam, please, wait!" I sigh, chasing after him, and holding down my cap so it wouldn't fall off my head.

"Nah, Andie. I know there's something going on between you and David! Don't play with me!" He yells back, turning around to face me.

"There's nothing going on between us! I invited him because he's my best friend, get over it!"

"Nah, fuck that." He shakes his head.

David comes out from my house, a concerned look on his face.

" it was all friendly on my end, even though I look forward to seeing you again. "

"Is everything alright?" He asks, walking up to me.

"No! Sam is making a big deal out of you being here!" I whine, my voice giving out as I try not to cry.

"Why are you doing this right now?" David asks Sam. We literally just graduated, and he decided to start drama now.

"Cause, I know there's something going on with y'all!"

"Sam, you don't need to-" David gets cut off by Sam.

"Nah, don't tell me what I need to do. You know what? You can have her, I don't give a fuck." Sam yells, starting to walk away. My eyes widen as I begin chasing after him.

" you was on the verge of losing her, you was actin' like you ain't want shit to do with her."

"Sam, wait!"

"Andie, just leave me the fuck alone, right now!" Sam screams, getting in the car, and driving off. I groan, walking back towards David.

"I don't know why he would do this right now..." I say, quietly.

"Does he yell at you a lot?" David asks, his eyebrows furrowed as he begins getting angry.

"No-"

"Yes he does." Aaliyah cuts me off, coming out of the house.

"Liyah!" I yell, David looks at me, an angry expression on his face.

"Why haven't you told me about this?!" He yells, making me flinch.

"Why did you flinch? Has he hit you?" David asks, lowering his voice.

"N-No!"

" keep frontin' like I don't know you. "

"He has..." David says quietly, shaking his head as tears come into my eyes.

I grab David by the hand, walking back into my house, and hoping no one else besides Aaliyah heard the argument. We sneak past my family, and up to my room. I lock my door as David sits on my bed.

She takes off her cap, and gown, angrily throwing them on her desk. She sniffles, walking up to me, and sitting on my lap. I wrap my arms around her waist tightly as she rests her head on my shoulder.

"Listen, Andie. You're amazing, you're kind, and sweet, and caring. You're also extremely funny, and intelligent. If he can't see that, then he doesn't deserve you..." She sniffles as I rub her back.

"I love you, Andie, you're my favorite person in the world..." I whisper, she looks at me.

"I love you too, David..." She says back, but I know she means it differently.

" I cut out the bullshit and kept it true with her. That's why the sexual tension is high when I'm in rooms with her. "

Andie looks at me, cupping my face in her hands. I stare at her for a moment, she brings my face towards hers, kissing me as I close my eyes, leaning in. We kissed for a while before she began unbuttoning my shirt. I grab her wrists, pulling away from the kiss.

"Andie, not now, you're just upset because of Sam." She stays quiet for a second, just staring at me. Andie smiles a little, hugging me tightly.

"I love you, David..."
