"There are pictures of you and Jabez."
End of recap.

"What?!"

"Look on her socials."

"Thanks for telling me, I needa go."

I ended the call. I immediately went straight to Layla's Instagram which was public and scrolled through the many pictures of Jabez and I. So many thoughts were rushing through my mind. How did she get these? Was she spying on us? Was she watching us? When did she take these?
I saw a photo of Jabez and I, she posted it just 2 hours ago. It was of us having Starbucks. She captioned it 'This slut 🙄'

She captioned more of the photos with slut, hoe, whore, thot, bitch and more. My self esteem was low as fuck by then. I had to call Jabez.

Caller ID   baby 🥺💙
"Jabez."

"Yeah mamas?"

"Did you see the pictures on Layla's Instagram?"

"No why?"

"She's been taking photos of us, she took one from this morning while we were at Starbucks."

"This sick b- I am not gonna call her what I was gonna call her."
He was so cute 🥺

"This is why your my boyfriend."

A few minutes after talking...

"Did you see the pictures?"

"Yeah."
"I'm sorry baby girl, I'll handle this."

"Are you sure you don't want me to help?"

"Trust me, I'll handle this."

"Oh okay."

"Bye ma."

"See ya mans"

He ended the call.

1 month later...

It's been a great month being with Jabez. I've seen a whole other side to him. We still haven't said the 'L' word but I know I want to. Today is Friday, Jabez has basketball training after school and I wanna surprise him by being there. I've only been to one of his training sessions since I've been so busy. With the whole Layla situation, Jabez handled it. He didn't tell me what he did, he just said that she won't bother us anymore.

I headed to my second period which was Spanish class. The teacher I had was my favourite she was chill.

I walked into class and sat in the back row, I had this class with jabez. Jabez showed up and sat next to me.

"Hey baby girl." He kissed my forehead, he then scooted his chair closer to mine.

"Hey baby."

"Okay class, today we need to partner up, one partner tells the second partner a sentence in Spanish, the other has to guess what they are saying."

Jabez and I gave the "I'm with you" look.
Jabez and I faced each other.

"Go."

"Ight." I felt like he was gonna say something really long.
"Eres perfecto"

"You're perfect."

"y te amo mucho." he is literally the definition of cute.

"And i-" I stopped because I had to take it all in.

"I love you baby girl." My heart melted when he said that.

"I love you too."

He smiled and I smiled back.

After school...

Jabez kissed me and said he needed to go train. I hugged him as he walked back inside. I watched him go inside, I waited about ten minutes, I knew he had gotten changed and was out on the court. I walked inside and into the gymnasium. I saw him, his back was faced the other way so he couldn't see me, his shorts were so low I could see his v line. I bit my lip at the sight of him.

"GO BABYYY!!!" I yelled

He turned his head to face me, he smiled, I knew he was surprised. He said something to the people on his team and jogged over to me.

"You came!" He smiled.

"How could I miss you looking this fine?"

I giggled whilst he smiled.

"We should do one on one."

"Are you sure?" I continued "I thought you were training?"

"Nah, that shits boring as fuck, I'd rather spend my time with my baby girl." He smiled as he said that.

"Awww."

"Let's go."

He put his sweaty ass arm around me, I didn't really care as long as we spent time together.

Later...

We were in the third quarter of the game, I was winning by two points since ya girl could hoop.

Obviously Jabez was taller than me so he stopped me from shooting.

By the last quarter Jabez had won.

"That's how it's done."

I giggled, he smiled. He walked over to me and put his arm around me.

"Boy I ain't about to let yo sweaty ass arm on me, look at my outfit."

Instead of taking his arm off around me he pulled me into a hug.

"I'm gonna go have a shower, I'll meet you in my car okay?"

"Ok, see ya."

He walked off, out of the gym, I did too, but I went the opposite way to him, instead I went outside and sat in his car, he gave me his keys before hand.

I sat in his car, scrolling through Instagram and listened to music.

30 minutes later...

I finally saw Jabez coming towards the car, he opened the car door and sat in the drivers seat.
I looked over at him, I saw a bruise on his cheek, his eye was red. He had a hoodie on, I knew he was trying to cover his eye and cheek.

We drove to my house, the whole car ride was silent. Once we got there Jabez stopped the engine. As he was about to get out I locked the door.

"Amariah what was that?"

He never calls me by my real name, he always calls me baby girl, princesa, preciousa or something like that.

I put my hand on his cheek, he kinda flinched my hand away.

"Baby, please tell me what happened."
