Beyond The Shadow Of A Doubt [Finished]

What We Gon' Do Now?

Shawn's POV

 I don't believe this shit right here. Oh nah, I know she not the one selling BX.

 "Beyoncé? That's Beyoncé?" Dame said and laughed. "Oh shit nigga." 

 We went to sit down across from Beyoncé and her sisters and a women I didn't know. I just looked at her like it was a joke.

 "What happened to the store?" I asked.

 "I'm not explaining anything right now." She said. "And what about you Mr. Investments." 

 I was about to say something but Don walked in. I'll handle it later.

We all sat and paid attention to Don as he spoke. He spoke so highly of the people in charge of the Bronx to me before this day. I never thought it was ran by women, better yet my damn girlfriend. I couldn't even concentrate. How could she lie to me like that? I mean yeah I lied too but, it's just, this is unexpected.

 I let Dame pretty much takeover the negotiation. My mind was running everywhere. We did end up losing to some boys from Long Island but right now it didn't even matter. We walked out the building and I told the guys I was waiting on Bey. They went to the car. I stood outside that building for a brick.

Finally they came out. I just looked at her. She told her girls to go to the car and that she was coming. 

We stood their awkwardly. I'm guessing we were trying to figure out how to approach this because we both had been lying to each other.

 "Are you mad?" She asked.

 "I'm frustrated and upset." I said honestly.

 "I am too." She said.

 We stood there in more silence.

"Come over around eight for a dinner with Cori." She said. "The kids can watch a movie while we talk."

 I nodded and pulled her closer to me. I kissed her lips and then pulled back. 

 "I'll see you at eight." I said.

 After that I walked to the car and got in and Dame drove off.

 I felt Dame looking at me and then back at the rode and do it again.

 "What?" I asked.

 "Nigga!" He said.

 "Leave it alone." I said and looked out the window.

 I think I'm acting like a bitch right now. Like, I'm hurt. I really like Bey and I felt it could move into something else. Maybe it will, maybe it won't.

 Beyoncé's POV

 Oh my god. Jesus is playing a trick on me or testing me. I got in the passenger seat of the car. Kelly was in the driver seat.

 "What the hell just happened?" Trina asked.

 I sat slouched down in the passenger seat while looking out the window. Why is this happening to me? I swear I've never killed anybody personally or nothing. Why me?

 "That was my boyfriend." I said.

 "Wait, the one that didn't win?" Trina asked.

 "The one sitting next to him." I said.

 "And you didn't know he was in the game?" 

 "Nope."

 "And he didn't know you was down?"

 "Nope."

 "Wow."

 "Yep." 

Everyone stayed quiet as we drove Trina back to BX. What was I supposed to say? Shawn lied to me and I was sitting there caught in my own lie. Why didn't I know? I should have known. Investments my ass.
