Jewel.

I heard the front door open and shut, I know it's no one but August. I flipped on my stomach and threw the covers over me. To bad I can't stretch across this king sized bed like I want too. I heard the bedroom door open and the light flicked on.

"Jewel I know yo ass ain' sleep." He pulled the covers off of me.

I groaned. "Leave me alone August." I threw the covers back over my head.

I'm honestly not in the mood to be bothered with it literally took me a whole half an hour to calm Mckayla down and get her to sleep. I've never seen my baby so upset, the guilt is still eating me alive. I know I could've handled the situation better since my child was there, but I let my anger get the best of me tonight.

August sighed and pulled the covers off of me. This time August sat on the covers. August ass is like a paper plate, just kidding he may be skinny but he ain't weak.

"Jewel quit being childish bruh, talk ta me."

"What did I tell you about referring to me as bruh, I'm not one of your little home boys or whatever you call them." I sat up and folded my arms.

"Stop tryna change the subject on me, I knew that would get ya ass to talk."

I sucked my teeth. "I'm really tired August, I don't feel like talkin' to you. How about you go talk to Asia since y'all share so many memories together." I made a smooching sound.

August got up from the edge of the bed and stood over top of me, he turned my face towards his so that I was now looking at him.

"This is where ya ass goin overboard. I fuckin' told you I didn't kiss that crazy ass girl man, she kissed me!"

I snatched my face out of August hands. "If you didn't kiss her back why didn't you tell me then August huh?"

August slid his hands in his pockets. "Because you was goin' through them pregnant mood swings. I wasn't trying to ruin the baby shower."

"Complete bullshit August you could've told me after the baby shower, but I guess you figured since no one seen y'all two you would play it like nothing ever happened! I know you August!"

August stared at the fluffy tan carpet on the floor. I turned the light off and snuggled in the bed. I can still feel August standing there.

"And don't even think about sleeping with me, there's plenty of rooms to choose from." I scoffed.

I heard August let out a huge sigh. "Jewel I chose this house and I bought this house so therefore I'll sleep wherever the fuck I wanna sleep."

August took his clothing off and climbed into bed. "Don't throw that shit in my face. Don't forget i once invited you into my home when you didn't have a place to stay but You're right, so therefore I'll sleep in a different room."

I snatched my robe from behind the door and slammed the door behind me. I decided to sleep in Mckenzie's room, imagining she was here. Even though I never really had the chance to meet my Kenzie I miss her. I curled into the covers and fell asleep.

August.

I woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. I'm so used to waking up with Jewel in my arms, but at the moment I don't even care. I was tryna make shit right with Jewel, but she ain't have to throw in my face how I ain't have a place to stay back then.
