I don't know why I had sex with De's crazy ass. He's currently asleep and I'm up thinking about what happened prior.

He tried to kill me like 3 weeks ago while we were driving to the beach as I brought up Ronnie.... he then went crazy today when I brought up Ronnie again... so the real question is what is his problem with Ronnie? Why is he so hostile?

I then turn my head to look at him... he's so peaceful when he's asleep. It's like the whole world passes around him and I admire his faint silent snores. But as soon as he wakes up, we know he's not gonna shut the fuck up and I hate it.

I then started to get up from the bed slowly and quietly as I didn't want to wake him up because if I did, I would've pronounced myself dead at the moment.

I walked to the drawer and I put on a shorts and a sports bra and walked out the room slowly locking the door. I ran down the stairs and went to the couch to watch some TV. I decided that TV wasn't the best idea so I decided to get something to eat.


I walk over to the kitchen and opened it the fridge. Empty. No wonder why he's so skinny and scrawny.

I walk up the stairs frustrated because of the empty fridge and I open the room door to see a still sleeping DeVante huddled up in the sheets.

I knew waking him up would bring annoyance on my end but a house with no food? That's a dub.

"Wake the fuck up." I say throwing a book at him. He moves a little.

"Move." He says flashing his hands up and turning in the sheets.

"Wake up! We going grocery shopping." I say and and he sighs.

"We can't go tomorrow?" He says annoyed and I kiss my teeth.

"Am I going to be alive tomorrow? Ima starve to death." I say and he breaths deeply.

"Fine." He says coming out the bed with just his boxers on and I notice his dick twitch a little in his pants.

He grabs a random T-Shirt, sweatpants, his dark sunglasses, and a baseball cap and headed downstairs with me.

"You're lucky I love you." He says putting on his Air Force One's and lacing it up.

"Interesting." I say putting on my Nike slides.

"You're gonna go outside with just a sports bra on and a Nike sweat-short with Nike slides?" De asks me and I nod.

"Tomboy." He mumbles and I kiss my teeth.

"Can we go so I can get something to eat?" I say opening the front door.

We walked to the car and we are currently inside driving to the corner store.

We sat in silence for awhile since De didn't want to turn on the radio. Out of frustration, I ended up turning it on my damn self.

"Don't touch my radio women. I wanna have a peaceful ride." De says and I sigh.

"pEaCeFuL rIdE... shut up." I mock him and he laughs.

"Age ain't nothing but a number, throwing down ain't nothing but a thang... this loving I have for you it'll never change." I hear myself sing through the speakers and I am caught by surprise.

"That's me!" I yell turning up the radio.

"Who's this song about?" De asks me and I glare at him.

"I don't know. Ain't about you." I say and he scoffs.

"Then what songs are about me?" He asks me and I roll my eyes.

"Who said that there was songs about you?" I say and I notice him grip the steering wheel.

"I just know." He says and I laugh.

"There's some songs there about you... you just gotta guess." I say and he looks at me and then back at the road.

"Okay... I'm so Into you?" He asks me and I nod.

"No one knows how to love me quite like you do?" He asks me and I nod

"Age ain't nothing but a number." De asks and I shake my head no.

"Didn't I tell you that song ain't about you?" I say and he smacks his lips.

"At your best?" He asks me and I chuckle a bit.

"Yes or no?" He asks again and I look out the window.

"Interesting." He says and I shake my head.

"I know some songs on forever my lady was about me. I don't know about your new album." I say and he laughs.

"Some of the songs on Diary of a mad band is about you." He says and I scrunch up my face.

"How exactly?" I ask

"Some songs I wrote was when we were together but all the songs weren't able to be added on the first album." He says and I shake my head.

"Pull over that's a grocery store." I stay pointing at the big supermarket.

De pulls over and we park in the parking lot.

"Since you wanna go get food so bad let's go." He says walking out the car and opening the door for me.

"Shut up... you need food the most. You look anorexic." I say and he kisses his teeth as he walks into the grocery store.

We enter and I grab a shopping cart.

"Handle this for me." I say passing him the cart and he goes to it with reluctance.

If De didn't wanna go shopping, I will. I refuse to starve my self.
