TREY

“And it’s not your faultttttt, that I fumbled your heart.” I sang into the studio mic, finishing up my new song. Fumble was more to me than just a song, though. It reminded me of a past relationship with my ex-girlfriend, Iesha Crespo. At some point in time a year ago, that was my ride or die chick. We did everything together, from partying to going to basketball games, I even introduced shawty to my mom and grandmother, the other two most important women in my life, besides Lauren. The reason we broke up was because I cheated on her. I’ve never regretted something so much in my entire life. I could’ve deadess wifed that girl, and possibly even had a couple of cute ass kids with her, boy did I fuck up. But then I met Lauren Nicole London <3 . Lauren is such a beautiful girl, and she made me kinda forget about all of my feelings for Iesha. I love Lauren so much, even though she may not believe so, but I don’t care, because I do. We’ve been together for about 7 months now, and it seems like she’ll be here for a while. Even though I sometimes miss Iesha, I’m always thinking ‘bout LoLo. I always feel bad every time I have to leave her, but I need to find a way to make it up to her.

“That was great Trey, take 10, and then we’ll work on Hail Mary.” my producer Noah dictated. I nodded and pulled out my phone to text LoLo:

Me: Baby i miss u so much :( I know i promised u i would spend all my time w/ u, and i apologize. I wanna make it up to u. Take my card and buy u some nice things cause i’m gonna take u out tonite. Be ready by 5 xoxo love Trey <3

I pressed send and waited for my baby to reply. Lauren usually texted back pretty quickly, so I hope she would this time. It took me waiting for about 5 minutes for her to reply:

Baby:  Aww babe :] I miss you too :( !! I understand completely & I just want you to know I support you 100% all the time. And I would love to go out tonight, I will see you later TreyButtah, love you :* <3

After reading her response, I smiled to myself as I thought of a way to make our night together perfect.

KARRUECHE

Cassie and I entered the room fashionably late. I was wearing a pair of H&M skinny jeans, a black Express blouse, and a pair of black Givenchy heels; my hair was in a high bun. I thought I looked ah-ma-zing. Casandra looked good too in an Urban Outfitters ensemble, but not as good as me ;).

"Kae, look it’s that girl Lauren from last night." Casandra said, pointing to the northside of the joint. She was talking to August Alsina, that little groupie.

“Let’s go fuck with her.” I pitched, heading over to them. “If you ever want any concert tick-“

"Hey guys." I said phony as hell, cutting August off. They both looked up me and I noticed Lauren getting all tense and uncomfortable.

“Hey Karrueche.” August said, kind of coldly. We don’t really fuck with each other anymore, after he threw a drink on me about a month ago. Fuck that nigga honestlyyyyy. I rolled my eyes and focused on Lauren.

“Hey Laurie, wassup?” I said, smiling. She still didn’t look up at me.

“It’s **Lauren.” I rolled my eyes and put my hand on my hip.

“Bitch please, didn’t your mama teach you that not looking up while they’re speaking to you is RUDE!” I snapped. Cassie kind of restricted me from getting closer ‘cause she knows I got a short ass temper.

“Karrueche, just leave her alone, she cool.” August said to me.

“Nigga who the fuck you think you are?” I replied, staring at him.“I wasn’t talking to your ass so mind your motherfucking business and get off this ugly ass bitch’s dick!” Lauren stared at me but she was frozen; great. August scowled at me, grabbed Lauren’s hand, and pulled her away from the situation towards the back door. If I wasn’t mistaken, I realized there were tears forming in the corner of her eyes. That pussy ass sensitive ass bitch!

“Fuck you bitch!” I yelled back at her, Cassie and I laughing in unison. I protect what’s mine and I couldn’t let that hoe ass bitch to take what was mine…

AUGUST

I led Lauren to the bathroom with me. When we got there, I locked the door. I held her beautiful ass face in my hands and wiped the tears from her eyes. That ugly ass bitch Karrueche always gotta hate on somebody, shawty gets on my nerves.

“Don’t cry over that cunt, fuck her, shawty just mad cause you 10x prettier than her.” I dictated, trying to make her happy. She pouted and looked like she was about to smile, but resisted. I took her into my arms and hugged her. I know I just met her, but she has a real genuine feel to her; I had a feeling we could have a close friendship from the way we was vibing. She said softly, “Thanks August, you’re so sweet.” I blushed and took out my phone. “Lemme get’cho number shawty.” Lauren told me her number and I entered it into my iPhone. I took a selfie with her just to remember the day we met because I knew she was special. “Thanks so much for cheering me up.” She complimented me, squeezing my cheeks. I blushed like a bitch.

“Hey, has anybody ever told you that you look like New-New from ATL?” I asked her, noticing the resemble just then. She burst into laughter and nodded.

“Why does everyone always say that?”

“Cause you do, except you’re badder”

“Are you flirting with me, Mr.Alsina?”

“Mr. Alsina is my father, but yes, I am.”

I pulled her closer to me and started staring into her eyes. She quickly pulled away, making me feel like shit. Damn, why shawty gotta do a nigga like that?

“August, don’t get me wrong, you’re chill as fuck and all, but I have a boyfriend.”

Damnnnn -_- . “Oh shit, Lauren I ain’t mean to touch you, I’m honestly sorry.” She just smiled reassuringly and joked, “It’s fine, who could resist this?” I just laughed and shook my head.

“Who you cuffed to?” I questioned her. She looked down at the ground.

“Promise you won’t catch feelings?” She said to me.

“Catch feelings, bitch I just met you!” I said with a confused expression on my face. She shook her head from side to side.

“Not for me stupid. How do I put this? I’m dating, ugh, Tr-Trey.”

“Burke?”

“Nah.”

“Songz…”

“That be the one.”

Man fuck that niggggaaaaaaa. I don’t really fuck with him right now. He did some shit that pissed me the fuck off and ruined our friendship. I sucked my teeth so she wouldn’t think I cared.

“I ain’t mad, you’re a grown ass woman, you can date whoever the hell you want.”

“You seem like you care.”

“I don’t.”

“We can still be friends though right?”

“Of course, listen I gotta go, see you around.”

I left without hugging her or anything, but I was kinda mad. I thought she was gorgeous and it was love at first sight. But of course she gotta be with the nigga I don’t fuck with, of course. I don’t know why I’m so mad, but damn, shawty gotta nigga fuming. But oh well, guess I’m #friendzoned. But I know one day, maybe in a couple months, years even, she will be mine.
