Roc: It's not bull. I love you, Dede.
Dede: As a friend?
Roc: Yes...and we could've been something more.
Dede: What do you mean we could've been? We both had issues.
Roc: But that's love, Dede. Why do you think Jassie and Prince are screwed up?
I turned around and got up to look at him. Nothing changed about him except his hair. He was the same boy I fell for 3 years ago. He smiled at me genuinely and I smiled back.
Dede: Have I ever told you that I'm sorry?
Roc: Have I ever told you that I'm sorry?
Dede: It's okay.
Roc: Same.
And with that, we just looked around the room. Our eyes darted back to each other and then we kissed. I haven't felt something so amazing in a while. He pulled me close and held my hand. We both pulled away at the same time and I blushed.
Roc: You look cute when you blush.
Dede: Thank you...you're just...cute
.
He laughed his normal, sexy laugh. I smiled at that and he looked me with a mysterious expression on his face.
Roc: So what are we now?
Dede: I don't know...together?
Roc: Sounds good to me. (smiles) Well, get some sleep.
Dede: Sure will. Night, babe!
Roc: Night.
He kissed me one last time and winked at me before leaving my room. I cut the light off and went to bed with some of the weight lifted off my shoulders.

{Roc's P.O.V.}
I smiled as I left Dede's room. I didn't expect us to get back together. I sat next to Malaysia, but she moved away from me, pissed.
Roc: Louli, what's wrong?
Lay: Don't call me that. You're just so....UGHHH.
Roc: What did I do?
She ignored the question and pulled out her phone. She began playing Temple Run and playing Where Have You Been by Rihanna. I sat there, thinking about what I did and nothing came up...Maybe she's missing Jassie? Yeah, that's probably what it is.
I rolled my eyes, annoyed by her stubborness. What could I have possibly done to piss her off?

{Prince's Room}
(Biz's P.O.V.)
I went into Prince's room and heard him on the phone. I heard the name, Roman. Is that the girl the boys were talking about? I moved closer in the room and heard him talking.
Prince: Roman...I just can't with people...True...You feel like that too? Same...Do you think I should go for it? Point...What if I do find her? She won't want to be around me....I'm dangerous, Roman....She won't forgive me....You really think so? (he nods) I got you. Thank you, beautiful....Talk to you soon...deuces.
He turned my way and he saw me standing there. I tensed up at the look on his face. It wasn't the same fun-loving Prince. It was someone in need of love...and he'll turn into a monster without it.
Prince: You heard everything?
Biz: I caught onto the end. You can't go off to find her!
Prince: Yes the hell I can. You can't stop me either.
Biz: Prince!
Prince: Biz, you don't fucking understand how much it hurts to see your true love getting shot and being possibly dead. The only shit you've ever experienced was having to be cheated on by Diggy.
Biz: Who the hell do you think you are?!
Prince: A lost soul. Now leave.
Biz: I'm not gonna let you out there, Prince. If you get killed by Ice Gang, would Jassie know? No. Why? Because she's GONE! Everyone has tried to be on your side, but you're acting insane! SHE LOVED YOU PRINCE! YOU FUCKED IT UP! That's why she's not returning. She loved you more than she could love herself. So go on, fuck her life up again. Clearly, you want her dead.
With that, I walked away. I heard the ruffling and shuffling of clothes coming from his room as if he ignored everything I said. I give up trying. I went over to Diggy's room and chilled there. I need to get away from the stress.

{Brooklyn, New York, The Next Morning, August 1st}
(Jas'marieé's P.O.V)
I let Sevarion stay at my house for the past two days and they've been one of the funnest I've had in a while. We sat down at the island, eating and talking about my birthday.
Sevarion: So, what do you plan to do for your sixteenth birthday?
Jas'marieé: I just want to chill. I don't really expect anything big, anyhow.
