*Salem's POV*

I got up the next morning and Courtney wasn't in bed, she wasn't there last night either. I went to bed before she did so I figured that she would come in bed later, guess not. I sat up in my bed and yawned a little bit. I rubbed at my eyes and plopped back into the bed. I am still really tired. I got on my phone and just looked through my snapchat stories. I smelt the smell of bacon and waffles, the best part about being at the Ball family house, they always make great breakfast. I stood up out of bed and threw my hair back into a messy bun. I went downstairs, following the smell into the kitchen. "First one asleep, last one awake," Lonzo teased, "How does that happen?"
"I don't know," I laughed and took a seat next to Denise and LaMelo. "Thank you," I smiled at LaVar as he handed my plate to me. I started to eat my food and Denise started to tell us about what we had planned for today and where we going to do what. "You cool with the camera crew following?" LaVar asked.
"Fine by me," Izzy said first.
"I don't care either way," I shrugged.
"Yah that's fine," Denise agreed to it. I finished up eating and cleaned up my plate. I looked over at Courtney who was sitting on the couch, a blanket over her. "Did she really sleep on the couch?" I asked Denise quietly.
"Yeah," she nodded, glancing back at her. I rolled my eyes a little bit and stood up. "I should go get ready," I laughed a bit and jogged back upstairs.

I finished up getting ready and I put my outfit on.

I went downstairs and Denise and Lonzo were talking and Izzy was talking to Courtney

I went downstairs and Denise and Lonzo were talking and Izzy was talking to Courtney. Gelo and Melo were playing a video game on the TV while LaVar watched and as did Tina. I sat down on the couch next to Melo, the only open spot. "When are we going?" I asked Denise, once their conversation was over.
"We should head out now," she nodded, standing up.
"Sounds good," Izzy nodded and gave LiAngelo a few kisses on his lips. I got a little tense but I shook it off. I grabbed my purse and put my shoes on. "Let's do it," I smiled at Denise.

We got the nail salon and we all took our seat. Denise sat between Izzy and I, noticing the tension. We all put our feet in the water and our hands out to get our nails done. "So how are you and Lonzo?" I asked, sparking a conversation with them.
"Good but we always have these petty fights," she shrugged, "He doesn't like understand where I'm coming from and it really bothers me."
"Gelo too," Izzy nodded.
"I don't know, I love him though so I'm going to fight for that," Denise smiled.
"What happened with you and LiAngelo?" I looked at Izzy, "He told us you were on a break."
"I don't know," she gave me a look, "Why don't you tell me?"
"What's going on??" Denise laughed, looking between us both.
"I'm friends with Gelo so I guess that mean that I'm the reason they fight," I laughed, shrugging.
"What do you mean?" Denise laughed.
"Izzy blames me for their arguments like I did something wrong for hanging out with my friend," I shrugged.
"Yeah well I don't want to lose him and you're getting in the way," she snapped.
"Alright girls," Denise laughed, "We came here to relax not fight. So drop it and deal with it later." I agreed and Izzy just rolled her eyes at me. I honestly could care less, she doesn't bother me.

It was about dinner time by now and we were all at the dinner table waiting for it be done. LaVar set out the food and took a seat as well. "So we have things to talk about," he started.
"Oh damn what happened?" Lonzo asked as he started to eat.
"I heard there was a little fight today between Izzy and Salem," he looked at Izzy and then me.
"Yup," I agreed, "I don't really know why."
"You know why," Izzy scoffed.
"Girls," LaVar looked at us, "I don't want this tension in the family. I don't want drama, what the hell is going on?"
"She's doing something with LiAngelo! Her and him have a thing I swear!" Izzy pointed at me getting defensive.
"Hol' up!" Gelo laughed, "You really don't trust me?"
"Well I don't trust her! We just met her!" Izzy groaned.
"I've known her since she was little," LaVar told Izzy.
"Plus Gelo and I aren't anything okay?!" I looked at Izzy, "Have your boyfriend, I wont even be his fucking friend if you're that insecure about it!!" I stood up, "Thanks for dinner but I'm not hungry." I pushed my chair in and went upstairs.
"Salem!" I heard Gelo call after me but I didn't hear him follow me. I went to the room and shut the door. I sat down on the bed and took a deep breath. I was honestly really upset. First I just up and leave Gelo and now Izzy is here accusing me of stuff I did but I cant tell her I did it. This is why I stopped with Gelo we just cant be like that, Izzy is too insecure an- I was cut off by a knock at the door. Before I could answer the door opened and it was Courtney, surprisingly. "Why are you lying to everyone?" she crossed her arms looking me.
"The camera men up here?" I asked.
"No I told them to stay downstairs," she opened the door to show me they weren't there.
"Cause no one needs to know, Gelo and I aren't even doing anything anymore," I shrugged, "I told him we had to stop so we did."
"Then why is Izzy so pissed?"
"Cause she doesn't want the fame to go away," I laughed.
"What?"
"Izzy," I laughed, "She loves LiAngelo's fame. She wasn't sure about their relationship and then when it really started to fade she couldn't give it up because she wants the fame."
"You're just telling yourself that," Courtney looked at me, "Maybe she really does love him and maybe he really loves her but YOU'RE too insecure to believe that."


A/N-
Damnnn. Which one do you think is the one who's insecure? Izzy or Salem?
