⚠️WARNING⚠️
I'm sorry if this chapter triggers anyone.

Meanwhile....

It's had been at least an hour or two since Janel and Philly have been home. Janel was ignoring him. She ignored him the whole ride home and the whole of the day at school. All Philly wanted was to talk to her.

Philly went to knock on her door. Janel opened the door. "What do you want, Phillip?" She said as she rolled her eyes.

"My mama not gon be home tonight to cook. I'm tryna see if you want some pizza or something." Philly said.

"Yeah, pizzas fine." Janel said as she tried to close the door. Philly stops her and pushes past her into her room.

"Actually I wanted to talk to you." Philly said as as he sits on her bed.

"Okay, what do you want to talk about?" Janel crosses her arms.

"I think you know what I want to talk about." Philly said. Janel had a confused look on her face. "For real? You don't remember what happened earlier? Janel come on." Philly stands up and starts pacing around back and forth.

"Phillip calm down. I was just joking." Janel laughs lightly.

"Oh. Don't do that. So, what do you have to say about what happened?" Philly asked shyly.

"You mean when you said you loved me? Well I'm a little confused. I mean it's not like I don't love you, but you're my brother's best friend. Don't you think that'll be a little weird?" Janel said.

"I guess, but I just don't want to see you get hurt by Israel. I care about you.... a lot, and I hope you'll give me a chance to prove that." Philly gave her a kiss on the forehead before walking outta the room.

Janel was left with even more confusion. She knew there was something between them every time she found her self crying in his chest about things she couldn't even tell her own brother, but she thought Phillip was doing it to be a good friend, not because he's in love with her. Janel was ready for this week to be over and it was only Monday.

~Two Days Later~

It was Wednesday, homecoming day. That's all everyone could to talk about this morning. Janel found away to ignore Philly these past two days, even though they live together, and she's been getting closer to Israel, Philly got caught crying because of Janel by Louis- Louis still doesn't know about any of this btw-, Zen and Louis have been having the best time of their lives with each other, and James has been trying to ask out this new girl, Rebecca, to homecoming, but have been getting rejected. So, yeah the past two days have been pretty much everywhere for the group.

"Hey Louis!" Zen said catching up to him.

"Yes, Zen." Louis said with a smile.

"I was trying to see what color you were wearing to the dance?" Zen asked him as they approached his locker.

"The dance?" Louis questioned.

"Yes the dance. Louis, you said you would go with me." Zen said with a pout.

"I'm just joking, Zen. I'll wear whatever color you want me to wear." Louis said before he kissed her. He pulled away fast. "Oh shit, I'm sorry, Zen." He said.
