[Teagan]

I ran a coat of maroon lipgloss over my lips while looking in my vanity mirror. Tonight was one of the many nights every had been waiting for. Zion Kuwonu's graduation party. He had started hanging out with the group now, he's actually pretty dope.

And hot.

I rubbed my lips together, making a popping noise before standing up and sliding on my tan pumps that went with my black dress. I heard a horn outside, meaning Cj was here. Pa-Poo and Mawmaw offered to watch him since they were staying here till Graduation. Mom and Kent were off on their honeymoon, in Bora Bora, lucky bitches.

I walked downstairs to see Cj rocking Jayson lightly while talking to my Mawmaw. "You ready, Cj? I asked as I stepped of the last step.

My Pa-Poo looked at me and smiled, "Ya look gorgeous, doll!" He spoke as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder and kissed my cheek. "Now, no boys! Have fun!" He patted my back.

"I gotchu, Pa-Poo!" I smacked my teeth, "Lets go, Cj!" I spoke as I walked to the door. She kissed Jayson one last time before we walked out and hopped in the car. "Man, I'm having major Deja-Vu right now." I chuckled.

Cj smiled as she started up the car, "Johnsons party? Huh?"

I nodded, "Yeah. They pushed your ass out the tree house." I laughed at the memory.

"Thats the night I got pregnant for Jayson!" She clapped, making me laugh harder and shake my head. "I'm a changed woman now, 18, have a son, have my own apartment with my fiancé."

I shrugged, "That's about all that changed." I said. Se rolled her eyes and punched my arm. "Ow! Bitch! I was kidding." I laughed lightly.

"You know, out of all of us, Seña was the one looking forward to this party." Cj let out a sigh as we pulled up to Zion's house. "I just feel so bad. . . He aimed at me now her. . . Saige is never going to be able to meet her own mother. . ." She shook her head, looking down.

I leaned over and hugged her tightly. "Only person to blame is Jermiah. . . Don't put this on you, C. . ." I pulled back lightly. She smiled sadly and nodded. "Now lets go party! We deserve it!" I exclaimed before getting out of the car and walking in with her.

"Ladies! Welcome, welcome." Zion smiled and hugged us.

"What's up, Z?" I smiled back.

"Help yourself with drinks and have fun! I mean, you will, it is my party." He winked and began to greet more people.

I laughed lightly and pulled Cj to the dance floor, dancing with her. "Did you know you're on fire? Did you know that you're beautiful!" Cj sung as we danced. I put my hands up, smiling. She could really take me out of this dark world in just a few moments, I hope I did the same.

"I'm going get a drink! You good?" I asked her.

She nodded, "Yeah, Jack just walked in!" She pointed to him. I gave her a thumbs up and skipped over to the kitchen where Hayes was pouring a drink.

"What up, bitch?" I questioned as I hopped on the counter.

"Just making my self a drink, want one?" He questioned. I nodded and watched as he poured the Malibu in the fruit punch. The kid knows me so well. He handed it to me and we clinked our glass, sipping it. "So, you ready for graduation in 2 weeks?" He questioned as he set his drink down.

I nodded, "So ready to get the hell out! I'm going to miss Principal Lee though." I sighed as I sipped my drink.

He nodded in agreement. "Same."

Lyla walked in along with Johnson and Dillon. She sat down next to me and took my drink, sipping it. "Whats up short stack?" Hayes asked.

"You know, just becoming an alcoholic." She shrugged, making Johnson eye her. She sat her drink down, mumbling "Sorry."

"Come on, lets go dance." He said and helped her off the counter, taking her to the dance floor. I sighed. We've all been trying to keep her at least decent during this time. She's mostly been with Saige. She says it feels like Seña isn't full gone when she's with her.

"Lets go kid," Hayes took my hand, helping me down.

My eyebrows furrowed. "Huh?"

"We dancing." He lead me to the dance floor as Lay You Down by K-Young came on. "Show me whatchu' got, Mrs. Juliard."

I smirked, "I believe the term is Ms." I stated as I pulled him by his shirt and slowly turned around, putting my behind on him and dipping low.

I felt his hands snake on my waist as we were slowly grinding to the song, "I know exactly what you got in those jeans." I heard him hum along to the song into my ear.

"Tonight lets spend some time, don't wanna be lonely." I sung as I turned back around as he dipped his head in my neck.

"I wanna lay you down." He muttered in my neck, sending me off. I bit my lip and took his hand, guiding him to an empty room. We walked in and I closed the door, locking it. As soon as I turned around he lifted me up against the door, kissing me passionately. "I've missed you. So. God damn. Much." He spoke in between kisses.

Clothes got thrown on the floor, our bodies danced under the sheets, It wasn't just sex it was love.

It was something I had been afraid of doing with just anyone. But Hayes, in my heart I knew it was different. Different then Matthew or Elliot, anyone. Hayes was my person.

"Hayes. . . We can't get back together right now. . ." I trailed off as he played with my fingers.

"Teagan, I love you, You love me, I hope at least. . . Please just, lets try. . ." He sat up, looking at me.

I sat up, holding the sheets over my bare body. "Hayes, face-timing everyday isn't the same. . . Visiting just during holidays? I crave your touch. . . After I'm done with school I promise. . . You know I love you unconditionally ."

He sighed, "Okay. . . Well, I'll drop you off. . ." He trailed off as he got up and began getting dressed. I let out a small huff and slipped my dress back on and held me heels, walking out of the house with him.

The ride to my house was pretty silent. I know I hurt him when I said that. . .

"I'll see you at school?" I questioned as we pulled up to my house. He nodded, looking at the road. I sighed and leaned over, kissing his cheek before hurrying inside the house, heading up to my room and laying down.

I really did love him.

I hope he knows that.

[Hayes]

I tipped toed my way into my apartment that I share with my best friend Tez, not wanting to wake him up. While I was shutting the door the lights turned on, and there revealed Tez.

"Bro! What's on your lips?" he laughed pointing at me. I raised my hands to my lips, wiping my lips and lookin at the maroon substance.

"Her lipstick." I spoke, sighing and sitting down on the couch.

He walked over to me and sat down next to me. "Teagans? Huh?"

I nodded slowly, "Yeah. . ."

"Damn y'all working it out, bro?" He asked me.

I shook my head, rubbing my temples. "No. . . We aren't. . . This 2 year break shit ain't going to work. . ."

Tez shook his head and sighed, "Like that cliché saying, if you love her let her go."

I nodded, "Yeah. . . I guess I have to."
