A/N: We are now in 2018 and I am now just updating, I am so sorry for that. However I honestly did just lose all interest in the story but I've always been receiving notification's of people who want me to continue even when this book seems to be the worst story you guys read seeing as I started it when I was 13 and now I am 16. Hopefully I finish this book with a great plot. Also again give me some ideas, all of them are welcome. I know some years back when I asked, some of you guys said a love interest between August and Kimberly... I don't know how I would incorporate that or feel about that. But it's not a definitive 'no' so continue to comment and thank you guys for sticking with this book for as long as you'll have.

   ~Kimberly POV~

"I know you fucking lien." MeMe said from the other side of the phone I had just got to the best part of Jalen and I night. I was propped up on my headboard with phone facing me as a saw MeMe run a hand through her hair as she tried to comprehend everything. I laughed at her as she just continued to rambled about how she wish Marcus would be all in her guts. "MeMe, oh my god. You gotta chill. When are you coming back though? I miss you."

"Soon? I don't know honestly. I'm just happy that I'm away from that bitch." MeMe said rolling her eyes which I completely understood. "How are you though? Being with Chris and away from August?" She asked. "It' straight, I love Chris more then ever for getting me out of that situation but soon I'm gonna have to face Aug, since he is legally my quote on quote dad." I explained. MeMe nodded her head, and after we discussed some more random, stupid things we hung up.

I got up heading to my bathroom, taking a quick shower before brushing my teeth and throwing my bun into a quick bun and an oversize shirt with my fuzzy socks I then headed downstairs. I didn't see Chris nor did I hear Royalty, which was strange. "ATTACK." I heard from the left of me, then I felt pellets on the back of my neck and arms. Then some arms wrapped around my shins I looked down to see Royalty curly hair knocking me off my balance and we both went down. I heard Chris laughing while reloading, which I'm guessing was a Nerf gun. Royalty was resting on my stomach laughing just as hard, I took that opportunity to tickled her sides causing her to squeal, I was smiling so hard.

"Daddy! She got me! D-a-ddy!" Royalty said in between breaths and laughs, then I heard Chris let out some extra as hell war cry. I stopped and pushed Royalty off gently before getting up and trying to run. Trying being the key word because as soon as I made contact with the hardwood floor with my socks on I went down. All that was heard through the house was my fall and a big bang.

"You just busted yo shit." Chris said doubled over in laughter while I was trying to laugh through the pain. "Shut up." I said mugging him, before getting up slowly. "You always doing something." I added still in pain. "Then you got Royalty in it too. Bet. I got chu." He just looked at me with his big ass grin.

"You'll be straight." He turned away from me squatting down to Royalty level before high-fiving her and picking her up and kissing in between her neck. "Alright well, Nia is on the way to pick Royal up, so I'm about to go get her dressed then me and you are going to go out on a Uncle and Niece outing." He said heading towards the stairs.

I'm just going to assume Nia is Royalty's mom I said to myself before following them upstairs but to my room. I had no idea his meaning of an outing, so I just chose a comfortable but cute fit, throwing on the hoops. Can't forget the hoops. For my hair I decided to keep the bun, but much neater laid the edges and added the Beauty Supply lip gloss and waited.

I waited for no more than 30 minutes when Chris came in with his little fit looking like Chris. I don't know how to describe it, he was just Chris... That made no sense Kim.

"Come on. Damn ugly ass." Chris said smiling

"Shut yo ass up, let me get my phone." I said grabbing my phone off the charger and my little wallet purse. We got in one of Chris's many cars, instantly his speakers was booming with YBN Nahmir.

"This lil nigga go hard." He said reversing and backing out of the garage, while I rolled down my window. We were just driving, I was taking in the scenery and the big houses we kept passing, and the tanned ass white girls.

"Where are we going?" I finally asked after we got off the interstate. But he didn't answer as we pulled into a Buffalo Wild Wings. He looked at me before saying "I'm hungry and we need to talk." Uhhh... Why do we gotta talk? I hope he didn't hear me telling MeMe about my little adventure last night.

That sure was an adventure I thought to myself, Jalen was exploring my body like he was Diego and I was Dora- wait aren't they cousins...? Scratch that, but that boy knew what he was doing. While my mind was wandering Chris was looking at me like I was dumb as hell. I chuckled to myself lightly before getting out of the car following him in.  

Like I expected the person at the door who I knew now was somebody named Tim from his nametag was stuttering over his words trying to ask where we wanted to be seated. Chris just gave him his little famous smile and saying somewhere in the back and a booth if that was possible. After we were seated, I instantly picked up my menu trying to find a drink. I'm pretty sure I knew what I wanted.

We looked for a few more moments until our waitress came to us, she was pretty reminded me of somebody but I couldn't put my finger on it. She kept looking at me though, like she was reading into my deepest darkest secrets. Chris and I both ordered before she walk off but not without a lasting stare, I feel like Chris had something on his mind of his own and was completely oblivious to whatever just happened between me and that girl. Finally Chris spoke up.

"So how was your little date, with Justin, Jordan, or was it Jacob-"

"Jalen. His is name is Jalen. And it was fun, we went out to eat ya know." I said keeping a calm steady voice, and I mean why shouldn't I? Well because after yall went out to eat he was deep up in them guts and wanted to eat you. My inner me said, causing me to quickly take a sip of my wildberry lemonade.

"Hmm.. Jalen." He said nodding his head softly. "You like lil nigga?" He asked looking up at me.

"Why do you keep saying 'lil nigga'? And yes I do." Which I really meant, I let my guard down with him, he was the one to come get me in the early morning when August did what he did with no questions and didn't pressure me to do anything. I ain't saying he the one... but he most definitely is my nigga right about now.

"Hmm... You like him enough to let him... let me see if I can find the exact words. "Have you shivering till you couldn't move." He said with a raised eyebrow

Awe shit.
