I Want You Back

-

I paced my room. Damn. It's been three months and me seeing Karlie last night had me going. She seems happy that she's not with me. Like I killed her shine or some shit. I had been staying with my nigga Bone since I got kicked out. He was never home and shit I wasn't either. It was either chasing money, or getting pussy.

I glanced at my phone one more time, the urge to call Kar was strong. I sighed heavily and pushed all my pride aside and dialed her number, she picked up on the fourth ring.

"Hello?" she said in a raspy voice. "Shit." I thought as I looked at the time. It read 9, reminding me that she had work in the morning so no doubt she was sleep.

I cleared my throat. "Aye... Karlie I wanna talk to you." I said, holding my breath waiting for her answer. She cleared her throat quickly, I could hear amusement building, and then she laughed. I looked at my phone. What the hell was so funny?

"What's up?" she said, laughter laced in her voice.

"Man... Is it safe to say I fucked up?" I said running my free hand over my curls. "Man you know I don't apologize for shit, never have and never plan on doing that shit. But with you it's so different." I took a break to breathe. I hated putting my feelings on the for front in front of certain people, Karlie was one of 'em. She made me feel like a school boy trying to write his first love letter. "I fucked up. You wanted to know was I cheating and I'ma just tell you the truth. Yeah I was, and it was never a side chick and a main type of thing it was quick pussy when I wanted it and I'm sorry Kar. I want you back. I promise, I'll try with my life to change." I finally stopped and waited on her response.

I stayed in the dark. It was silent for a moment. He just told me the truth and I always want nothing but honesty in a relationship, I just never knew how I was to deal with it when it was sat in front of me like he just did. I opened my mouth to say something but I couldn't. I could his his soft breathing on the other end. "Aug." I tried to form words. I wanted him back but we sure aren't about to hop right back in where we left off. I'll be damned if he think he can take his place right back here. "I want to start over but—" I started, before he cut me off.

"But what Kar?! I swear if it's another nigga I'm going to kill you and him." he said. I could sense his anger.

"Hol' up! Damn let me finish." I laughed. "I want you back but I hope you don't think you are about to just come back and be right back in your spot. You're not." I said with all seriousness.

"I understand." he spoke into the phone. "We are starting over and I really mean starting over." I grinned.

"Man, hol' up you want me to ask you out?" He asked laughing.

"What you think?" I asked, smirking.

"Awe man, damn." He said, before taking a breathe. "Um... May I speak with Karlie?"

I laughed he was replaying the day he called up my house and my father answered the phone.

"This is she, how may I help you?" I said giggling.

"This is August, August Alsina from McDonald High. On the South side of 7th ward." (A/N: Yes that is a real high school in New Orleans there are for McDonald highs in New Orleans) 

"Hmm.. How may I help you Mr.Alsina?" I said, trying to contain my laughter.

"Well I seen you the other day and you looked so damn fine. I was wondering if you would consider letting me make your life a little bit more happier..." he said, and I could tell he was smiling.

"And if I say no?" I retorted.

"I'll call your house everyday until you say yes." he replied.

"Well we wouldn't want that now would we? Hmm... I think I might just say... Yes." I answered.

"What you say you pack your bags, I wanna take you on your first date this weekend?" He asked. I looked at my phone confused.

"August what are you talkin—" I started, before he cut me off.

"I'm going to Miami Beach this weekend and I want you to come with me! C'mon..." he pleaded.

"Aug I don't—" 

"You don't but I do, say yes." he pleaded.

"Fine. No sex, showers together, and I want a room with two separate beds." I said.

"Really? Is that how it is?" he said, before laughing into the receiver.

"I hope you didn't forget but we didn't have sex until eight months into this relationship." I smirked.

"Dammmmnn." he groaned. "Fine. I respect that but I know you can't get enough of this." he said, confident of himself.  

"Whatever you say Aug. Night." I said.

"Night Karlie." he said. I hung up first.

-

She hung up and then I remembered. I had to get rid of Rose.
