@ MB's Suite

The boys (except EJ) sat in their hotel room, Ray and Roc playing Diablo and Prince staring at nothing. Eventually, Ray breaks the silence.

Ray: Prince, why you mean mugging the wall? Did it piss you off earlier?

Ray and Roc laugh, but Prince just glares at them.

Prince: It's nothing. I just have a lot on my mind.

Roc: Like Janae.

Before he could object, Ray puts his hand up.

Ray: We both know you think about her 24/7! You don't do a legit job hiding it either.

Prince gives in.

Prince: I just can't get her out of my head. And can I let y'all in on a secret that I SWEAR if you tell ANYBODY I will break every bone in your body!

Ray and Roc pause the game and turn to Prince.

Roc: Won't tell a soul.

Ray: Mindless Honor.

Prince and Roc look at him like he's stupid.

Prince: Alright, well, remember the night I ran out of the club?

They nod.

Prince: Well, when Janae came to check on me we kind of had a make out session. Then, that night we hung out and I had the time of my life just talking to her. She's an amazing girl. But I have Bahja breathing down my neck like I'm her life. I honestly would break up with her in a heart beat, but Janae kind of has feelings for EJ, so until she can find the heart to end it with him, I will stay with Bahja.

The guys don't seem the least bit surprised.

Roc: Man I wish we had betted on this.

Ray: But we both agree that he's in love with her!

Roc: Oh yeah!

Prince: So, what do y'all think I should do?

The guys shrug.

Roc: Bahja's hard core. I wouldn't stick around to see her like throw you off the balcony or knock you unconscious and send you to the middle of the ocean.

Ray: Ditto.

Prince: Come on, guys. She won't-

Prince stops to think.

Prince: Oh god.

Ray: Yeah.

Roc: Told you.

The door opens and EJ walks in.

EJ: Sup guys.

Roc: Hey bruh.

Ray: You get you some ass tonight?

EJ laughs and Prince glares at Ray.

EJ: Nah, not tonight. I got close though.

EJ goes into the next room and when he can't see, Prince pushes Ray off the coffee table ( which he was sitting on).

Ray: Ouch!

Prince: Shouldn't have said that. Now you two promise me you won't tell a soul about me and Janae!

Ray and Roc both say Promise as EJ walks back into the room.

EJ: Promise what?
