SIMONE P.O.V.
"Isn't that Jazz?" I said to myself. I squinted, trying to make sure that it was here. It was. I saw August open the door, and smiled widely at her. She smiled back and they hugged each other, and for a good minute to. I couldn't help but feel a little jealous watching then together, I just wanted to know why she was here so late, and wanted to know now.
I backed up slowly and turned around to the guest house. I continued down the rest of the cobblestone pathway and my phone started vibrating in my pocket. I pulled it out and answered it.
ME: "Hello?"
TYRESE: "Hey love, I just got back."
ME: "Oh..that's great."
TYRESE: "You don't sound to excited there."
ME: "No, no, I am, Im just a little busy right now, that's all."
I lied.
TYRESE: "Okay then, I won't hold you, I just called to ask you something real quick."
ME: "What is it?"
TYRESE: "I want to see you tonight, come out with me."
ME: "That's a question?" I asked in a laugh.
TYRESE: "Aha, not exactly, but it still needs a answer."
ME: "....Sure Tyrese, be here in 30."
TYRESE: "Alright love."
After hanging up with Tyrese, I went back tothe guest house showered and got dressed. (OUTFIT IN EXTERNAL LINK)
15 mintues later, Tyrese called saying he was outside. I grabbed my bag and key and left.
"Hey gorgeous." Tyrese smiled as I got into the car. "Hey." I said vaguely. "You good?" He asked in a concern tone. "Yeah, im fine, where we going?" "Im taking you on a picnic." "A picinc?" I asked confusingly. "Yeah, so just enjoy the ride." I nodded and put my head on the back of the seat and closed my eyes. I slowly drifted into sleep. I had a long day and I was about to have an even longer night.
I slowly opened my eyes and blinked a few times to clear my vision. "Tyrese?" I said outloud. I looked around and noticed that the car was parked and Tyrese was nowhere to be found. I undid my seatbelt and looked around the car. "Tyrese?" I said a little louder. I pulled my phone out of my bag too check the time. It was 8:47. All of a sudden, I heard the trunk slam and I jumped. "What the hell??!" I said. I heard the doors unlock and open. I saw Tyrese's face and I immediately let out a sigh of relief. "Your awake now, good." He said smiling. "Yeah, I woke up and you were gone, I was scared for a mintute." "Aww baby, I just went in the back to get this." He lifted up a big picnic basket and sat it between us. "Where are we?" I asked looking around. "On a cliff." He put the keys back in the ignition and turned on the headlights. "Wow..." I said looking at the whole city of New York below me. "Impressed?" He asked with a smirk. "Very." I said with a smile. He turned to the basket and pulled out a sandwhich and passed it to me.
"Sandwhiches?" I asked in a laugh. Tyrese chuckled. "Look, it's the best I can do, I don't cook." I laughed. "Awww, no wonder you brought these." I said looking at the peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches. "You gon cook for me??" Tyrese asked. "How do you know, I know how to cook?" I asked raising a eyebrow. Tyrese smiled. "I just have a feeling that you do." "Well your actually right." I smiled and took a bite of my sandwhich.
After we finished our food, we started conversation. "So Simone, hows everything at "home" if you want to call it that." I started to feel a little nervous. "What do you mean, hows everything??" Tyrese smiled faintly. "I mean, hows everything, Is that guy respecting your privacy and what not?" I nodded my head. "Yeah everything is fine over there, I have no problems with August." I looked out the window and back at Tyrese. "Well it's to bad to hear that." He said. "What do you mean?" I asked defensively. Tyrese reached into his pocket and pulled out a Tiffany's box. My eyes shot open. "Tyrese you didn't..I-I-I mean, it's WAY to early in our relationship for-" "Whoa, whoa." Tyrese interrupted. "This is not a engangement ring Simone." He chuckled. I let out a nervous laugh. "Right." I slowly took the box away from him and proceeded to untie the bow. I took a deep breath and lifted the top off. "What is this?" I said lifting up the gift. "Its a key." Tyrese said happily. "Okay yeah I can see that Tyrese, what is it for??" "Its for you." I rolled my eyes. "Stop playing with me boy, what does this go to?" Tyrese cleared his throat. "It's a key to my place." I sighed and drop the key back into the box. "Look, thanks but no thanks." I handed him back the box. "Wait, so your not excepting it??" He asked in a confused tone. "No im not, im fine." Tyrese scoffed. "I don't get you at all." He said stuffing the box back into his pants pocket.
"What the hell are you talking about?" I asked. I was getting madder by the second. "I don't get how you have a problem with me basically asking you to live with me, your BOYFRIEND by the way, but you didn't turn down August when he asked you." I shook my head and crossed my arms. "So this is what this is about huh? The fact that I live in Augusts' guest house?? Well, I don't recall you having a problem with were I lived until you found out that August lived a couple steps away." "Watchu tryna say?" Tyrese asked loudly. "What im saying is, apparently you feel threathned by him, like y'all in a competiton or something." Tyrese sighed. "Simone, I see the way that nigga looks at you, you can't tell me he's not into you. Im pretty sure he's made a pass at you already." I looked down at my lap and back up. "He's tried hasn't he?" I didn't answer. "Simone, has something happened between you and him?" I sigh. "W-we kissed..but I promise you that's all that happened. I lied. I've been lying a hell of a of lately, and it's starting to bother me.
Tyrese shook his head and sighed. "Really?? And when where you gunna tell me this?" "I wasn't going to because I handled it." I said. "Handled it how?" Tyrese said. "I made it clear that Im with you, and I want you and only you." I said grabbing his hand. Tyrese clenched then unclenched his jaw. "...Alright Simone, I believe you, I just don't want you around him when Im not there, got it?" He asked sternly. I nodded yes. He let out a faint smile and started up the car.
When we pulled up to the gate, I gave Tyrese a goodnight kiss and made my way to the guest house door. "Aha, your so funny." I heard a woman's voice in the distance. I peeked around to August's door. I saw Jazz and August hugging once again, and I wanted to throw up in my mouth. "What the hell was she still doing here? It was almost 10:30." I thought to myself. I saw Jazz pull away from the hug and kiss August. I felt my heart drop to the pit of my stomach. "This nigga is really something else." I thought again. I walked down the rest of the pathway and entered the guest house, slamming the door. I couldn't believe he had the audacity to try and make me feel bad about our situation, when he's been fucking with Jazz. I couldn't lie though, Jazz was bad as fuck. I guess I really was replaceable. I threw myself back on the bed and crawled under a sheet. I closed my eyes, having a million thoughts race threw my mind. I then felt my phone vibrate in my pocket.
"What is it now??" I said bringing the phone up to my eyes. I slid the lock bar over and read my text from Stasia.
STASIA(10:25pm)-"Hey boo! I can't wait for tommorow, don't 4get!"
I sighed and closed the message. I did forget about the whole Stasia meeting August thing, and after seeing what I just saw, I wasn't looking forward to it AT ALL. My attitude tommorow was going to be hell.
TYRESE P.O.V.
While driving home, I felt my phone go off in my pocket. "This must be my baby." I said smiling to myself. I reached into my pocket, slid the answer bar over without looking at the caller I.D.
ME: "Yes gorgeous." I said with a smile on my face.
??: "Thanks for the compliment, but that's a little gay dont you think?"
I sighed once I realized who it was.
ME: "What is it man, im driving."
??: "Chill, I just need a update on everything that's happening.
ME: "Nothing's happening, im good."
??: "Oh, so in other words, your not doing your job??"
I sighed.
ME: "Im doing my job man, don't worry about me."
??: "Look, Ion got time for the games Tyrese, you got until next wednsday to get this shit right, or it's yo ass."
ME: "Man, you know what?? The deal is off. Unlike half of these niggas, I ain't scared of you, so if you coming, come on then."
??: "Aha, Oh so you a tough guy now??? Man fuck you, you wasn't built for this shit anyways, I know other niggas who will go through with this."
ME: "Not when im around, that shit aint gon happen."
??: "Yeah, we'll see."
I heard the phone beep in my ear indicating the call was over. I threw my phone in the passenger seat and continued to drive. "I wish I never met that nigga." I said outloud. "Let the games begin."
