Aries POV
2 week later

I've been staying with Jayceon these past two weeks and it's been really exciting. I haven't talked to anybody lately. Even though I called them, they didn't answer. They as in Rizzy and Raphael. I start my job at footlocker in a couple days so pretty soon I will be able to get my own place. Me and Jayceon aren't together but we occasionally mess around.

"Wassup." Jay walked in the room and kissed me.

"Hey." I wasn't over Raphael or Justin but hopefully Jayceon will take my mind of them two. My phone rang and I rushed to pick it up. It was my brother.

"Hey Arnez!" I said happily.

"Sup." This is the first time I talked to him since I told him I lost my virginity.

"How are you?" I asked.

"Okay."

"What you been up to lately."

"Chilling."

"Arnez you still mad at me?"

"No." He said with attitude

"Are you sure? you seem mad." I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever."

"Alright."

"You know I still can't believe you fucked my BestFriend after I specifically told you not too! He isn't the one for you Aries."

"I'm aware, but what's done is done and you can't do shit about it."

"Where is his ass anyway let me talk to him." I instantly got sad.

"I don't know Arnez."

"Then imma call back later when he's with you."

"Arnezion. I haven't saw him in over a month. The night we did it was the last night I saw him."

"So he fucked and left?"

"Yeah."

"I'm gone kill this nigga. The fuck!? I told yo ass but nope! You didn't wanna listen! Now look what happened, a nigga that you thought cared about yo ass took something you can't never get back and left. you couldn't wait for the right guy to come along. You looking for love in all the wrong places and in niggas that at the end of the day don't give a shit about you." That was really harsh but I hated that he was right.

"He did-"

"Don't defend his ass. He didn't care about you Aries. It was a bet, alright? A couple of his friends said the first one to pop a girls cherry win some money." My eyes began to water and I choked on my words.

"Y-you're just saying that." I cried and Jay rubbed my back. "Right?" I asked. He sighed. "Right!?" I yelled. He didn't answer. I hung up the phone and threw it at the wall.

"I was just a bet!? For some money." I cried.

"Am I just a bet to you too? 'First one to take in a homeless bitch wins 100 dollars?'" I stood up off the bed but he pulled me back into a hug.

"Get off me Jayceon!" I pushed him.

"No, Aries. Calm down."

"I'm never good enough for anything! My family dont want me! My friends don't care bout me anymore! People bet on me now! What's next Jay? What's next?" I cried.

"Aries, those people don't mean shit alright. They obviously ain't got they head screwed on right, to treat you how they did. Baby don't listen to them other niggas. At the end of the day I got you. We may not have known each other for a long time but it feels like I've known you forever and I really care about you." He hugged me tight and rubbed my back.
