"So you really not talking to that man Saint?" Keisha asked with a giggle.
"Nah I'm good. He's prolly with Naomi anyways." Saint said with an eye roll.
It had been a good two weeks since Jake pretty much dissed her for "Omi" and she hadn't been answering his phone calls, Facetimes, text messages, nor DM's. She liked Jake a lot and that was something she wasn't expecting to happen. She could tell the way him and Naomi looked at each other that there was some unresolved feelings towards each other.
"Stop it. Shad says that he's been walking round sick without his daily dose of Saint."
"Ok and?" Saint said and stood up.
"Just call hi—-
"Let's go out tonight Keisha. I've done my work for the next month and I just want a night of fun. Please?" Saint begged.
"Well ok then bitch." Keisha laughed.

"You have to tell her soon Jayce." Selena said sympathetically as her and Jayce sat on her king sized bed.
Jayce didn't want to face Saint at the moment so she told her she would be staying with Selena. Saint didn't seem to mind since either of the girls had apologized since their argument and Sisnt knew that Selena's parents didn't play that shit so Jayce would be good.
"I know. I already know she'll say she told me so. Damn it then I'll have to tell her about Bone."
"She's your sister Jayce. Y'all can't stay mad at each other forever. I'm sure she'll be pissed at first but she'll come around."
Minutes later, the girls heard loud laughing and music playing downstairs and knew it was none other than Selena's brother and his friends smoking downstairs. Jayce's heart dropped as she thought of Bone being down there which she knew she was. Him and Von was practically joined at the damn hip.
"Shit." She whispered.
"Have y'all talked after you seen him and shorty at the clinic?"
"He texted me and told me that she was there getting a check up and he just went with her since they were close friends. She looked around his age. I just can't believe I let this nigga get me pregnant. I'm so stupid."
"You're not stupid Jay. You just made a mistake. You live and you learn."
Seconds passed and there was a knock on Selena's bedroom door.
"What?!" She yelled.
"What's up, lil bit? Jayce, come on out so we can talk man." None other than Bone said on the other side of the door.
"Tell him I'm not here." She whispered to Sel.
"It's just me, B. She's not here today."
He chuckled.
"You lying to me, Sel. I seen her bag downstairs."
"She let me borrow it."
"Sel, I'm not crazy." He laughed.
