(after asking her, he then referred to her as his support animal, all with pure intentions, which quickly backfired when veondre humorously accused him of "thinking black people are dogs". he hasn't referred to her as his support animal since.)

"my favorite interracial couple, oh my god!" larri squealed when he saw them enter the room, quickly running up and hugging lola as she laughed loudly but still hugged back.

"jesus, fuck, larri- what if someone who wasn't supposed to know about us heard that?" vinnie chuckled, giving larri a side hug once he was done squeezing lola.

"oh, my bad, i completely forgot about that," larri pouted, feeling genuinely guilty about the fact that he may have just exposed their romance to someone. "boy, you're fine, vin is just in a pissy mood cause i ain't change his diaper before we left." lola reassured him, making both of the boys laugh as they began walking towards noah.

the three conversated and shared a few laughs, until larri suddenly remembered something. "oh yeah! lola, nailea should be coming towards the end to pick you up so you guys can go get us lunch then come back. i figured you'd rather go with her than just sit around and wait on us," larri shrugged before walking with noah to his seats.

vinnie continued getting prepared to speak on the podcast, paying no mind to the minor detail, while lola felt her heart drop a little.

she knew there was no established "beef" between her and nailea, but she was still nervous to meet her in person for the first time. what if she really did have unrevealed feelings for vinnie? what if lola really did take vinnie from her without realizing?

lola new that it was just the media trying to push them against each other, but she still couldn't tell if the grudge was real or not.

eventually, vinnie had started speaking on the podcast along with noah and larri, and lola sat behind the camera, watching vinnie engage in conversation.

lola was mid laugh at something noah had said in reply to larri, when she felt a tap on her shoulder.

lola turned around, her laughter dying down when she saw who tapped her. "are you ready to go?" nailea mouthed to her, not wanting to disturb the others. lola just nodded, getting up and grabbing her phone before waving to vinnie and following her out the door.

silence. the whole way to the car it was pure silence. even in the car, silence. nailea sat in the drivers seat, and lola sat right next to her in the passenger seat. there was no sound coming from the radio, and lola itched to turn it on, but was honestly too anxious to make any sudden movements.

nailea suddenly let out a sigh, making lola look at her.

"lola, look, i don't know if you and vinnie are, like, a thing or not, like i don't know if y'all are fucking or whatever, but, i just want you to know i do not like that boy. like I know there's been alot of rumors saying that me and him dated, and that i still like him, and that you stole him from me, but i swear there's like nothing there. like, I've known that boy for over a year and i promise, not one romantic thing has happened between us. like, at all." nailea blurted out all in one breath, and lola probably wouldn't have been able to understand what she said if it wasn't for the fact that she grew up around people who also talked way too fast.

"oh, wow," lola breathed out in response. nailea looked over, a slight frown on her face, "yeah, sorry. i talk too much. and too fast."

lola laughed a little at that, "no no, it's just that, after hearing you say that out loud, it made me realize how dumb this whole non-existent "feud" was. like, over a
white boy? are you serious, my nigga?"

nailea busted out laughing at that, making lola laugh loudly as well. "no, literally! like, girl, no, i'm not mad at a girl i don't know for dating some guy i was never even interested in, like," nailea laughed.

"damn. well, yeah, me and vinnie have been officially dating for 2 months." lola got out the last bit of her laughs, confirming nailea's assumption.

nailea just nodded with a small smile, not very shocked by the confirmation, but still happy for the cute couple. "sick. anyways, who's your favorite artists? you can turn on some music, if you want." nailea asked, creating casual conversation as she now planned on getting to know the girl, who she already knew would end up being a close friend.

lola nodded, grabbing her phone and going to spotify as it connected to the car, "shiiit, alright. you like steve lacy?"

nailea smiled and nodded. "hell yeah, you got taste, girl!" lola smiled, playing "Hate CD" by Steve Lacy.
