A/N: Instead of YN the name will be Melani and your best friend name is Brittany.
YN POV: Me and Brit were at the mall walking around laughing until she brought up August.
"Look lani, August is no good for you. How many times has that nigga cheated on you? how many times has he called you out yo name?"
I sighed loudly "Can we not talk about this?"
"I'm just saying you could do better. You deserve so much better."
"You and Alana don't understand. Yes he's cheated on me but everyone makes mistakes and deserve second chances. I love him and I want to be with him. If you guys can't accept that, I don't know what to tell you."
At this point we had stopped walking and were sitting at a bench. The tension in the air was thick I broke the silence.
"Look Britt I gotta go okay? I'll talk to you later." I stood from the bench Brittany did too.
"Alright call me okay?"
"Yeah." I turned to walk away when Brittany pulled me in a hug. We hugged for a while then we pulled away,heading separate ways.
Driving out the parking structure Brittany words replayed in my head. Brittany doesn't understand she's never been in love. Love is a four letter word that seems so simple to define when in reality,it's no where near that. In fact,it's complex. Taking the key out of the ignition, all my deep thoughts vanished as I walked to the steps of the house me and August shared. Opening the door, stepping inside I threw off my jacket. "Babe!" I called out for August. "I'm upstairs baby." I smiled going up the steps and opening our bedroom door.
August POV: Lani came into the room with the biggest smile on her face. I looked blankly at her and her smile dropped immediately. "Bae what's wrong?" "We need to talk."
"Okay..." she trailed off sitting next to me on the bed.
"Lani I think it's best for me to say this, I ain't no good. And your heart ain't something I should play with so let's get this understood. I ain't trying to ruin your life If anything I just want to make it right."
Her eyebrows connected as she stared at me with confusion. "What are you trying to say?"
I sighed grabbing her hand and looking her in her eyes. "I'm just the nigga next door but Lani I see more for you- I stopped talking once I seen tears flowing from her eyes. "And you ain't gotta have no fear I'll always be here for you." I said wipping her tears away. "And I know you may not end up with me, Cause I'm still playing outchea in these streets Lani I'm just saying you deserve better."
I grabbed her hands pulling her to the long mirror in our room. Her head was hung low so I lifted her chin up with my thumb and index finger. "Take a look in the mirror baby girl your a prize. And ANY male that don't see that you should let his ass go. Believe that because his love ain't real what he won't do another nigga will." A small smile appeared on her face causing me to smile.
"You deserve all the love, you deserve all the care. You deserve all that and more, Baby you deserve to smile. You deserve the best of everything. You Deserve better."
It took me foreverrrrr to make up my mind on if I wanted to turn this song into a imagine. Do y'all like it? COMMENT!
