NEXT DAY:
Me: how long are you planning on staying here?
Imarni: well I have classes tomorrow so I need to go back tonight.
Me: let's stay in a hotel.
Imarni: that's a bad idea.
Me: why?
She sat up on her bed so she could face me.
Imarni: you know why.
Me: you still haven't told me what happened?
Imarni: I don't want you to start anything.
Me: I won't I promise.
Imarni: okay fine... I think he's been cheating on me.
Me: how do you know?
Imarni: I don't. But I know he's been lying to me about the girls in the uni that he's messed around with.
Me: so do you think he was just messing around with you?
She slowly nodded playing with her fingers so I held onto them making her look up at me.
Me: do you regret ending us?
Imarni: I don't know.
Me: let's go out.
Imarni: I'm not in the mood.
Me: get changed, let's go.
Imarni: tyree I don't want to.
Me: why not?
Imarni: because all I'm going to be doing is thinking about going back to uni tonight and having to speak to Jamal.
Me: I told you to move somewhere else.
Imarni: I can't until next year.
Me: then stay with me in a hotel for a few days.
Imarni: the last thing I should be doing is getting back with you.
Me: I'm just trying to help you imarni, it doesn't mean we're back together.
Imarni: thank you. But it's okay.
Me: I don't want you getting back with him.
She attempted to walk out so I grabbed her arm pulling her onto my lap.
Me: I'm being serious.
Imarni: I don't want to have this conversation with you.
Me: promise me you won't get back with him.
Imarni: or what?
Me: or I'm getting involved.
Imarni: why do you care so much?
Me: because you're my imarni. I hate seeing you upset.
Imarni: I'm fine.
Me: you're not.
Imarni: I am.
Me: prove it. Come out with me and the guys.
Imarni: tyre-
Me: you don't have a choice. Let's go and then I'll drive you back to uni straight after I promise.
She looked back at me finally giving in so I squeezed her towards me since she was still sitting on my lap. I knew she would give in eventually.

We ended up going to top golf since it was so last minute there was no other choice but either way we were all having a good time. After taking my turn I went on my phone scrolling through Instagram when I a picture on the explore page caught my eye. It was imarni and Jamal, so I clicked on it and of course he posted it a couple of hours ago with no caption. What the fuck? Now I'm pissed off. I watched imarni as she skipped over to me then sat on my lap grinning until she realised I wasn't too happy.
Imarni: what's up?
I showed her the picture.
Imarni: why is he posting me?
Me: give me your phone.
Imarni: no. You don't need to get involved.
Me: I won't do anything stupid. Just give it to me.
Imarni: tyree I know you. You're going to cause big drama.
Me: why are you protecting him? He's the one that's been playing you around not me.
Imarni: fine.
She eventually gave me her phone walking away so I took it finding a picture of me and imarni then I posted it. Hopefully he gets the message.

TYREES POV:
I looked over at imarni in my passenger seat. We were almost at her uni and I could tell she was starting to get a little anxious.
Me: what's on your mind?
Imarni: what did you do on my phone?
Me: haven't you looked?
Imarni: no. I'm scared.
I chuckled putting my hand on her thigh squeezing it a little.
Me: it's nothing to worry about.
Imarni: he's been calling my phone all evening so I know you've done something.
Me: why haven't you answered it?
Imarni: I don't know what to say to him.
Me: you should come and stay with me in a hotel tonight.
Imarni: I already told you I'm not doing that.
Me: why not?
Imarni: because you know what's going to happen.
Me: and what's that?
Imarni: we're going to end up having sex when we both know we shouldn't.
Me: what's wrong with that?
Imarni: Tyree you were just with another girl a couple of days ago.
Me: so what?
Imarni: I'm just not doing it.
Me: I don't understand why you're switching up on me as soon as Jamal comes into the picture. You never turned down sex from me before.
Imarni: it's more than just sex.
Me: it doesn't have to be if you don't want it to be.
Imarni: you know you can't do sex with no strings attached.
Me: yes I can.
Imarni: you couldn't even keep your hands off Jamal yesterday.
Me: what?
My head shot up, I didn't realise she knew I punched him when I went back into their apartment.
Imarni: I'm not stupid tyree. I saw your knuckles when you left the apartment after getting my phone. You would never be okay with me living in the same house as Jamal if me and you are just friends never mind friends with benefits so I'm not going to let it happen.
Me: I just spoke to him.
Imarni: so if I go into the apartment now and he has a bussed lip or a black eye that wouldn't of been you who gave it to him?
I sat biting my jaw trying to keep calm. How does she know all of this?
Imarni: you promised me you wouldn't do anything to him.
Me: why are you protecting him?
Imarni: I can deal with this myself. I don't need you to fight my battles. I've told you this before.
Me: I can't watch you crying and do nothing about it.
Imarni: that's why I called romae and not you because you don't know when to fall back and not get involved.
DON'T FORGET TO VOTE AND COMMENT! ☺️
