Tammy's Character is on the side. Js.

--Thursday Morning--

--Aria’s POV--

 I woke up this morning feeling like complete shit. My phone was still planted on my face, and I could hear Aubrey’s deep snores crashing into my ears. I smiled at the conversation that we had last night, considering everything that happened between Tammy and I. I was still in shock that my best friend would do this shit to me. Especially with a nigga that I still needed to finalize things with. Ace and I never talked about if we weren’t together or not, and I damn sure wasn’t about to assume so even if he was the one to kick me out of our house.

 I heard a groan and then Aubrey’s deep voice moan out for me. I started laughing loudly, just so I can wake him up and make fun of him some more.

 “Ahh,What? What?” Aubrey groaned. I giggled and re-adjusted my position underneath my covers.

 “Well, goodmorning Aubs. I hope you had a good sleep yeah?”

 “No...well yes, until you woke me up.”

 I giggled some more. “Well I can’t help it if I hear my name being called.”

 He chuckled and I could see him just smirk with his eyes shut all dream-like. “Forgive me for even trying to dream about it.”

 “Oh trust me, I will. But listen, can you hold on for a minute? I need to uh...release.”

 “Oh. Ew. You could’ve just said you had to use the bathroom…”

 “Well, I didn’t. Just hold on okay?”

 “Iight, but if you’re not back in about three minutes, my ass is definitely hangin-” I put the phone down and got up from the bed quickly, speed walking towards the door. I quickly went back to my bed and quickly slipped on my pink fuzzy slippers before leaving the room to go on my way towards the bathroom.

 Once I hit the door, it opened. Tammy stepped out, a towel wrapped around her petite frame, another towel wrapped around her head.

 “Hey.” Tammy spoke shyly.

 “Excuse me.” I brushed past her into the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind me.

 “I said I was sorry Aria! It just...It just happened. I’m so sorry....please don’t be mad at me!” I could hear Tammy beg from behind the door. I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

 “Go the fuck away from me. I don’t talk to hoes.”

 It grew quiet for a few minutes, the silence becoming increasing tension between us two. I did my business and flushed, while also washing my hands in the sink.

 “Aria, you can’t keep being mad at me for something as small as this.”

 I opened the door and came face to face with Tammy. “Yes the fuck I can. My best friend made out with my boyfriend-”

 Tammy held up a finger. “Ex-boyfriend.”

 I shot a glare at her. “Well, we don’t know that now do we?” Tammy went mute. “I swear, you were supposed to be the one person I could go to and have faith in, when everyone else around me was falling apart. You fucked up on some serious shit, so yes, I will keep being mad at you for ‘something as small as this’. Now get the fuck away from me hoe. I don’t have time for your “loose” apologies.”
