Dakota's POV.
Trey takes his hands out of his pockets and sits down on the couch next to me. He's the first to speak.
"We need to talk, Dakota. About all this shit."
"You start off." I say quietly.
He doesn't even hesitate. "First off, you need to listen to me. Like, really. You are always jumping to conclusions. I didn't even get a chance to explain what happened with Deno or anything."
I push a piece of annoying hair out of my face. "Explain."
"Elijah...He owes money to them. A lot of money. They came to me about 5 weeks ago and told me about it. At first, I was like 'FUCK ALL YA'LL MOTHERFUCKERS', but then I realized he was serious. Deno wanted his damn money and wasn't taking no for an answer. I declined of course. But then I realized that if I didn't do it, then, my family. You. Would be hurt. " He narrows his eyes. "Do you really think I wanted to join a gang on purpose? Seriously, Dakota? Deno is a mad fucking drug lord and I think I have a pretty idea of what he would do if I didn't accept."
"So I'm the only one at fault here Trey? Come on. You could have told me about it. We're in a relationship. Built on LOVE. Your not supposed to tell me Trey. I'm your girlfriend." I close my eyes. "At least, I was supposed to be."
"What do you mean supposed to be? You still are."
I can't help but laugh. "Trey. You don't even get it. You're coming at me for making assumptions but really, how do you think it looked from my point of view?. All this time, I was so damn worried that you were having an affair or that you know longer loved me. You were lying. Yeah. I assumed things. I'm sorry. But please, I'm not the only one at wrong. I'm not-"
"I didn't say you were-"
"I feel like there's no trust anymore, Trey. Maybe its just me. But its how I feel. Its not even all about the drugs or the gang. Because, no I realize you had to do that stuff to protect me. And I'm thankful and I realize how hard it must have been for you. But why did you have to lie? Am I not trustworthy?'
"You are. I'm sorry. I just-"
"How is your sorry helping us now?. You even lied about the Angell thing. You could have told me you weren't a virgin. It wouldn't of been a big deal." I could feel my blood boiling. "Yeah. Maybe I would have been a bit jealous that another girl had you before I did but I would have accepted it! I would have! It may seem small to others but not to me Trey! Not to me!"
"I should have told you, I'm sorry. I just-"
"How do you think I felt, when fucking had to tell me? Not even my boyfriend could tell me, but the boy who cheated on me could? And I'm sorry if I sound like a bitch but really. I accept your apology, I do but I still don't understand what is going on in our relationship."
Trey looks down at his hands and his lips part, but he says nothing.
"Trey....I was your best friend. We told each other EVERYTHING. The good things and the bad things." I look him straight in the eye. "Did it change when I became your girlfriend? Did everything we built for the past years just fall apart? What? Once, I became your girlfriend, you don't want to tell me anything?"
"Dakota. I had to protect you."
"And I understand that Trey! I understand you had to protect me! But why did you have to lie?"
"I didn't. I'm sorry."
"What about Angell? You went to talk to her, right?"
I nods. "She doesn't know whose the baby is. So we are going to get a DNA test to see if it's mine."
"If it is?"
"Then, I'm going to take care of my child. It's my responsibility."
"Of course it it." I state. "I would never stop you from doing that but because I know what kind og great guy you are. And I would never deny you because of that. I just..."
"I just what?"
"Nothing."
"No. Say it. We are supposed to be talking."
"I...I just feel like when we were just friends...It was better."
His eyes widen. "What are you saying?"
"I'm saying...." What am I saying? "I'm saying...We need a break. I just need a break."
"Well, I need a break too. You're not the only one."
I could feel something pull at my heart when he said that. But I ignored it.
I chuckle. "Why do I feel like I'm the only one at blame?"
"I don't know. Why do you feel like that?" Sarcasm coated his tone.
"Becuase you're making me feel like iT. Like I'm a BITCH."
"You're not."
"It's nothing. Just nothing."
Silence Falls.
"Well, then, I guess...We just need a little break. To give each other some space." Trey finally says, standing up.
"This doesn't mean we are breaking up." I confirm.
He smiles. "I know. We both just...Need some time."
"Yeah."
"I just want you to know, that I'm sorry. About Angell and about Deno. About everything."
"I know. I don't blame you. I just need to get my shit together. And I want you to know. I still love you."
He places a kiss on my cheek. "I still love you too."
A/N: Sorry, I took so long. ITS SUMMMER! BUT ALSO HOT AS HELL. But they chapter wasn't too bad was it? They are taking a little break. And don't blame Dakota for everything. LOL.
