Part 9.

I woke up the next morning entangled in August's arms. I tried to slide away from him but his strength just got stronger and stronger.

"August I have to pee." He still didn't move so I popped his hand. "I have to pee."

He let me go and I got up and went to the bathroom. I locked the door and stared at myself in the mirror. My face was red, my eyes were puffy and I didn't look like myself at all. I didn't feel like myself either.

I emptied my bladder and then did my morning routine of washing my face and brushing my teeth. Once I was finished, August was still asleep. I went over to the bed and straddled his lap.

"August.. wake up."

He moved a lil bit but stayed asleep.

I kissed his forehead and then slapped him. His eyes popped open and I laughed.

"Girl. What the hell is your problem?"

"I was bored. I wanted you to wake up." I said as I looked at him with a sad face.

He rubbed his hand down his face and then rested both hands on my thighs.

"Okay. so whats gud?"

I bit my lip before looking at him.

"We both need to get tested for HIV."

His eyes got wide. "What?"

I sighed. "That night, when you found me, Duke had raped me.. in order for me to leave I had to put a pillow over his head.. I thought I killed him because he had stopped moving after a while but I didn't.. you and I just had sex and Nyja slept with Duke too. What if she did get it from him? Baby, who knows how long he had it. He could have gave it to me.."

He looked at me in deep thought before smacking my thigh.

"Go get dressed so we ca' take a lil trip to tha clinic thickness."

I smiled at him and he flipped us over which landed him on top and I started laughing.

"And if you ever put your hands on me again while i'm tryna sleep me and you gone have some problems."

He kissed me and then got up.

"Ew don't kiss me before you brush your teeth."

He mugged me before walking into the bathroom. I grabbed some clothes so I could take a shower.

I was determined to make a day a good one despite what all happened yesterday. I refuse to be depressed behind some fake ass family that I had. Did it hurt? Yes. But i'm not falling back into the hole I crawled from. It's their loss because i'm perfectly fine without them. As long as I have August on my side, I don't care who is against me.

"So how you feelin'?" August asked me as we sat in the car on our way to the clinic. "And be honest."

I looked at him before looking back at the road. "Honestly, i'm okay. I know I had a mental break down last night, and i'm sorry for that, but i'm okay. I promise."

August kissed my hand. "Baby, it's nothin' dat you need to be sorry about. You needed to let all dat
go and you did. Ya man got chu' ." He said as he beat his chest.

I laughed at him. "I know he does and I can't be more thankful for him. I love you babe."

"I luhh you mo'."

We pulled up to the clinic and walked inside. We filled out our little papers and sat down. August was sitting down playing on his phone while I was texting Morgan to see if she wanted to meet up later. I loved me some August but I needed some girl time right now.
