Oh my god. My fucking head is banging. I sat up on the bed just to see a sleeping Clarence. What the hell happened last night.

I grabbed my phone to see Keisha texted me multiple times. I opened my phone clicking on her message looking at it.

Keisha🤞🏾🤪: Bitch it's a fucking video of you twerking on August.

Keisha🤞🏾🤪: Bitch I know you see these texts.

Keisha🤞🏾🤪: you better hope Clarence ain't see.

Keisha🤞🏾🤪: you were all upon him.

I put my head in my hand. Damn. I forgot about that. I went on Instagram to see the video. Oh my god. Clarence can't see this.

I felt him wrap his arms around me as I locked my phone.

"Goodmorning Baby."

"Goodmorning," I said as I turned around facing him.

"I called your job. They said they're moving the court date to tomorrow."

"Good. Cause my head hurt so bad."

"I know baby. We could just lay down and cuddle."

I nodded hesitantly.

"Wassup?" He asked looking concerned.

"Um, nothing baby nothing," I said as I laid down.

He laid beside me and wrapped his arms around my waist. I wrapped my arm around him and my legs burying my face in his neck.

"I love you, baby. You know that right?"

I nodded. "Yea. I love you more."

He kisses the top of my head making me smile. This boy does something to me.

August POV

As I was rolling up a blunt I heard Mel come in talking about a video.

"Aye man you ain't tell me you had a bad bitch on ya last night."

I looked up. "Let me see."

He gave me the phone and I looked at the video. Shit.

"Who posted this?"

"Shit I don't know. It was on the explore page."

I got to call her.

As I got out my phone I signaled Mel for privacy.

I scroll to her name and clicked her number to call her.

Lyric POV

My phone rang and an unknown number was on my screen. I grabbed my phone and got out of bed. I walked out of the room and downstairs and answered.

"Hello?"

"Wassup ma."

"August?" I whispered walking outside.

"Yea. What are you doing?"

"Um, nothing. Chilling wassup."

"You saw the video?"

"Yea. Look it wasn't meant for all of that to go down. I have a boyfriend and I was d-." He cut me off.

"Boyfriend?  Never told me about that."

"Well, we weren't talking at the moment."

"I got to go ma. Ian means to disrespect ya relationship. Talk to ya later I guess."

"Wait Augu-." 

Before I could finish I heard a click. He hung up. I fucked up.

I was standing outside for almost fifteen minutes trying to contact August back but he kept sending me to voicemail.

Shit. I always do this. I went inside grabbed my keys and walked outside locking the door. I have to make things right. I got inside my car.

As I was driving I realize that August had his location on. Yes, Jesus is on my side today.

August POV

Lyric kept blowing my phone up but I kept declining. I didn't want to talk to her.

She willingly gave me her number when I asked for it. As if she didn't have a man. I'm not a side dude.

I was sitting outside smoking a blunt with my homie when a black Mercedes pulled up. I stood up just to see Lyric get out of the car. What the hell is she doing and how the fuck did she find me.

As she was walking towards me I passed my homie the blunt, meeting her halfway.

"Lyric you can't be here," I said turning her around walking towards her car.

"I wanted to talk to you."

"How the fuck did you find me?"

"Your location was on."

Shit. Forgot to turn that off. "That doesn't mean you can just pull up where I'm at. You got a nigga why you bothering me."

"That's what I wanted to talk about. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before but we were on the edge of breaking up." She said looking down playing with her fingers. I hate it when she does that.

"Lyric. Head up." She lifted her head up looking at me and I continued.

"That doesn't mean lead me on If you knew you guys were going to get back together. I'm not just a side dude you can mess with when your main nigga ain't acting right."

"I know and I'm sorry." She continued to play with her fingers.

"I don't know what to tell you. When y'all did then you can holler at me but until then we can be just friends."

She just nodded and walked over to her side of the car. She was like she was sad that I said that, but ma got to understand I'm a main nigga not a side.
