I gave Jamal my phone then he put it in his pocket sitting opposite me. I already can tell this conversation is going to be awkward.
Me: why do you seem so mad at me right now?
Jamal: I'm not. I just didn't know you was going to get into a relationship.
Me: why does that bother you?
Jamal: I told you why
Me: tell me again?
Jamal: because I have feelings for you.
Me: how do you expect me to believe you when you only told me after I got with Tyree?
Jamal: I didn't mean to tell you in the first place, I was in my feelings when I saw you kissing him in your room so I told you to see what you would say.
Me: does it suprise you that demari doesn't believe you?
Jamal: wait... you told him?
I slowly nodded regretting it, since he didn't look too happy about it.
Me: I'm sorry. I needed to talk to someone about it and I figured he'd be that person because he's a mutual friend of ours.
Jamal: it's kool.
He stood up giving me back my phone walking out so I followed him.
Me: I didn't know it was a secret.
Jamal: I'm gonna go and get something to eat. Do you want anything?
Me: are you serious? You said let's talk.
Jamal: that's before I knew you would go back and tell demari what I tell you.
Me: I'm sorry I just wanted to know if you were being serious.
Jamal: do you want me to get you some food or not?
Me: no. I want you to stay here and talk to me.
I kissed my teeth as he walked out slamming the door in the process so I called Tyree back.

Demari: where's J?
Me: he said he was going to get food about 3 hours ago.
Demari: what did you do?
Me: what do you mean? I didn't do anything.
Demari: I'll call him.
Me: fine. I'm going to finish watching suits.
I went back into Jamal's room pressing play. It was almost midnight and he wasn't back so it doesn't look like he's coming back anytime soon so I got comfortable in his bed.

JAMAL'S POV:
I turned my TV off since it was still on as imarni was sleeping in my bed.
Me: imarni?
She didn't budge so I sat down in the bed next to her rocking her. She rolled over so she was looking at me.
Me: did you get lost?
Imarni: where were you?
Me: why? Was you worried?
I laughed as she kissed her teeth sitting up on my bed.
Imarni: I'm gonna go to my own bed.
Me: and put some clothes on too.
She spun around screwing me.
Imarni: I have clothes on.
Me: I can still see your butt cheeks under your shorts.
Imarni: then stop looking
Me: no, I like it.
She shook her head walking out as I bit my lip watching her go. Being celibate is going to be hard living with her.

I woke up out of my sleep kissing my teeth since my phone was going off somewhere on my bed. As soon as i found it I answered it.
Me: hello?
?: Who the fuck are you.
Straight away I sat up looking at the caller ID, then I realised this isn't my phone... It's imarnis. I put it back to my ear to hear Tyree still going on.
Me: bro relax she fell asleep in my bed she must of forgotten her phone.
Tyree: what the fuck was she doing in your bed?
Me: I ain't getting involved.
Tyree: is this Jamal?
Me: i said this doesn't have shit to do with me.
Tyree: why the fuck are you answering my girls phone?
Me: relax. It ain't like we're fucking.
Tyree: is that supposed to make things better?
Even though he just woke me up out of my sleep and I'm tired I didn't want to back down to make it seem like I'm scared of him because I'm not. He may be a couple years older than me but that doesn't mean anything.
Me: we live together what do you expect.
Tyree: I don't wanna see you talking to her.
Me: or what?
Tyree: do you want me to come down there to you right now?
I chuckled going into imarnis room.
Me: marni
Tyree: don't call her fucking name.
Me: you have issues. If I was going to do something with her I would of done it by now.
Imarni was still sleeping so I pulled her up giving her the phone.
Me: your boy is mental.
Imarni: what?
She took the phone from me putting it on her ear.

IMARNIS POV:
I looked at Jamal confused taking the phone since he was shoving it in my face.
Me: who's this?
Tyree: why the fuck was you sleeping in his bed?
I froze realising what was happening.
Me: why are you shouting at me right now?
Tyree: i want to know.
Me: he wasn't even in the house at the time.
Tyree: I don't give a fuck.
Me: Tyree you need to calm down or I'm hanging up on you. It's 3am in the morning what is your problem?
Tyree: you need to come down here.
Me: I told you I'm coming on Friday.
Tyree: I'll see you on Friday then.
I looked at my phone in disbelief, he hung up on me so I walked out to the kitchen where Jamal was tapping on the counter staring into the darkness. I turned the light on walking up to him.
Me: what happened?
Jamal: you left your phone on my bed so I answered it thinking it was mine then he blew the fuck up as soon as he heard my voice.
He looked at me biting his jaw so I went up to him rubbing his jaw line hopefully he will calm down.
Me: I'm sorry you got involved in that.
Jamal: is that how he is towards you?
Me: no. He's just a little over protective.
Jamal: a little? He wanted to come down here now if I didn't stop speaking to you.
Me: he says a lot of shit when he's mad just ignore it. I'll sort it all out I promise.
I hugged him then went back to my room texting Tyree, telling him to call me back when he calms down. This is why I didn't want to make it official between us but even i know he would of still reacted the same way if we weren't officially together. I just can't win.
