Recap of the ending of the last chapter:

SHAI

I moved away to avoid Majesty and get over it. I moved to Chicago with a cousin of mine. I met a guy and got proposed to, but I said no and he broke up with me. I packed my life up and moved back here to California two weeks ago. Jessica kept in touch with me and we actually got to know each other and learn to care for each other. She was there for me everyday of my heartbreak because I was so depressed. Her and Ant even forced me to allow them to help me. They paid for everything including moving my stuff, my flight back here, and even sending my car here. Jessica has also been helping me plan my house warming even though I don't really have anyone to come. She really has filled the void of not having a real mother in my life and I love her for that.

I didn't know if I would bump into Majesty or how I would feel if I did. Now, I'm standing here wondering if I made the wrong choice by not giving him another chance. I can't quite put my finger on it, but something seems so different about him. He looks healthy, he's much more muscular than he used to be, and he's added more tattoos to his arms. He's more handsome than ever. One of the most obvious differences is the way he's dressed. He was wearing a simple Adidas T-shirt, a pair of jeans that weren't designer, and some shoes to match his shirt. He doesn't even have on his flashy jewelry at all. Like I said, something is very different. I guess a year really does change people a lot.

"Wassup Shai?" I hear LaLa ask as Sean carries her on her back. I'm so excited to see them. They used to try me, but I realized how much they really mean to me when both of them were shot and almost lost their lives so young. "Hey! How are you guys?" I ask. "I'm good." Sean answers. "Me too." LaLa answers. "It's good to see you two." I admit as I hug them both.

I stood around kind of talking to whoever talked to me for a while. I have to use the restroom now. I know I'm welcome in their house, so I don't have to ask to use the restroom like I used to. I just walked in the house. I have no clue where a restroom is, but I do remember one being up one of the flights of stairs.

I hear Jessica talking to some extremely proper woman, but I'm not trying to be nosey. I can hear in Jessica's tone she's trying to be nice but isn't impressed, but I don't know what the conversation is about. I'm going to just stay out of this and do what I was supposed to be doing.

I just found one of the restrooms down the hall. "Fuck." Majesty curses as we bump into each other. He was walking out as I tried to open the door. We're so close to each other, I'm sure he can hear my heart beating fast. I'm so nervous. He's staring into my eyes with a scowl on his face. "I... I wasn't following you. I was, um... I just have to pee." I mumble as he continues with his stare down. He's always been so intimidating.

He looks at my neck. "You still wear it." He acknowledges. I look away from him as he stares at my neck. When he was still pretending to not want me, he bought me a necklace at Swarovski in Las Vegas. It's something I cherished so much even after the breakup. It still means a lot to me, so I still wear it. I didn't even wear it for a reaction because I didn't expect him to be close enough to me to notice it.

"That's wassup." He nonchalantly says, trying to walk away. I wrap my arms around him for a hug. "Majesty, wait." I mumble. I tried to hold it together, but the tears are flowing. I was fine until we saw each other. I tried to get over him, but truth is I never did. I just kept going with my life. Now that I'm near him, I feel like I'm literally craving him.

He's just standing here tensed up as I hug him tightly. He's not hugging me back, but he's turned on because I feel his strong erection pressed up against me. "Hug me back." I cry as he acts like he doesn't want to. He wraps his arms around me. We've been holding each other in silence for a couple of minutes. I'm just taking it all in. I missed his scent, his strong arms, and everything about him.

I look up at his face. Shockingly, I see so many different emotions. I wonder what he's thinking. Does he miss me the same or does he love her more than me? "Aye, you should uh... go ahead and use the bathroom." He says as he pulls away. I won't let go of him though. I can't. "Shai, let me go, please. Shai, I can't do this shit with you." He softly tells me. "Do you at least still love me?" I ask. I'm not trying to sound weak, but it's how I feel. "Yeah. That's why I can't be around you." He answers as he walks away.

I grab him by his arm. I just pinned him against the wall and leaned in his face for a kiss. I've been drinking, so I know I'm probably letting liquid courage be the reason I make a fool of myself. I just miss and love him. His eyes are closed while I kiss his spot on his neck. I haven't forgotten what makes him want to have sex with me no matter where we're at. "Stop." he lightly moans as he grips my ass. He's saying stop, but him rubbing and squeezing my body says otherwise. He roughly pulls away with more guilt than I have ever seen on his face. "Stay the fuck from around me, mane. Shit, Shai. Stay away, real shit!" He snaps as he storms away from me.

All I can do is cry. He's really in love and faithful despite how I tempted him. This shit fucking hurts.

I just finished crying my eyes out in the restroom. I just walked out. His girlfriend is right outside the door staring me down. "Bitch, I know who the fuck you are. Stay the hell away from my man, or you'll regret it. You didn't want him, so I will be damned if you get in the way of us with your old ass feelings. I saw the way you watched him. If you know what's best for yourself, you'd take heed." She threatens me before turning and walking back down the hall. "Bitch take heed to my ass that you can fucking kiss." I say back to her. Fuck that hoe. I've been around the Mitchell family long enough to be a little bit tainted. If she wants to buck, I'm ready now.

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE

"I been hearing things and seeing things
And so it seems you're moving on from me. Caught you on the scene with little miss thing, And trust me, she really don't want beef." - Jhene Aiko

"I'm about to go home. Walk us out," I say to Drew as I put my diaper bag on my back. "Why? Don't leave. Reiylah, you wanna stay with daddy, don't you?" Drew asks our daughter. "We've been staying here every single day this week. I wanna go home," I say back as I watch him pick her up and kiss her cheek. "You need to stop all that playing, Reign. You know you wanna fuck with a nigga again," he says, making me laugh. He just won't let up. No matter how many times I turn him and all of his serial attempts down, he still tries with me.

"Why you wanna fuck me so bad?" I ask. He looks at me crazy. "I don't wanna just sleep with you. I want to be with you. If you throw a nigga some pussy you know I'll take it, but this ain't even about that," he explains. "What is it about then? Once a dog, always a dog," I remind him. I just didn't want to mess up our friendship by going down that road again. Things have been just fine between us since our daughter was born last year. Lord knows I don't want to constantly be beefing with him.

"That's where you wrong. I ain't a dog no more. I changed. I was wrong as fuck for all I did to you and Shai, I will admit that. I changed though. That was then and this is now. I want my family with me all the time. I hate it when you and Reiylah gotta go home, and you know Ant don't want me at y'all crib everyday," he says. "That house is big enough for you and my dad to go weeks at a time without seeing each other. You know my daddy don't give a fuck about you coming over there. You just want me over your house all the time like I'm your girlfriend," I say.

"Just think about it, aight? I don't want to move on to somebody else because you know regardless, you the one I always wanted. I will, though. A nigga not about to go through life on some lonely ass, dry dick ass shit," he says, making me laugh. "Nobody is making you refrain from having sex, Drew. You know you got hoes. Go sleep with one of them." I couldn't help but to laugh at his stupid self.

"I don't have hoes no more. All I got is you and my daughter, that's it. I've been waiting on you to sleep with me." He claims. He might be telling the truth because he is always up my butt even when I don't want him to be. "I don't know. I've been happier single and not worrying about commitments," I say. He shakes his head then pulls me in a hug. He kisses my forehead.

"Whatever, Reign. I bet if I was Qua you would've said yes." His jealous ass says. Every since my dad and uncle got out the game and let Drew and Qua take over, it's been a little awkward. They have no choice but to interact with each other and every blue moon I've overheard some of their conversations. It's strictly drugs and money with those two. They don't even joke around. "If you were Qua, I wouldn't say yes neither. I don't want that nigga neither," I remind him. He had it all twisted if he thought that.

"Whatever," he pouts, hugging Reiylah tight as she tries to wiggle out his arms to play with a light up ball that Keke won her at an arcade the other day. "You going to your ex wife's thing?" I ask. "Nope. What I need to be around my ex wife for? I haven't seen her in a while other than at the party," he answers. "She invited everybody to her housewarming. Really, my mom threw it for her since they're suddenly close. I don't know if I'm going. We don't have beef anymore and she is sweet to me since she fell in love with my brother and got over you, but still."

He shrugs his shoulders. "I don't want to upset her by showing up with you," he says. "I feel you, but I doubt Shai gives a fuck. My momma said she all butt hurt over Majesty after she saw that he moved on after she left him," I say. "And?" He asks. "And that means she ain't thinking about you because she too busy worrying about Majesty and his girlfriend, crying and shit." I answer.

Everybody knows that Shai is over Drew. My brother turned that girl the fuck out before she left him. Some people just can't be replaced. In my opinion, Majesty still got a thing for her too based on the way my momma said he was staring at her trying to be discreet. That's none of my business though.

"Well, if you go, I'll go," he says. "My momma wants all of us to go because Shai don't really have anybody, apparently." I say. "When her and Jessica get cool?" Drew asks. He's just as confused as I was when I found out they were close. "I wish I knew, but I don't. Anyways, I'll see you later," I say. "Call me on the way home," he says. I nod my head as I walk out the house.

He just carried our daughter out here and got her situated in her car seat. He walks around to the passenger seat and hops in. "Where you going?" I ask. "To yo house." He answers, buckling his seat belt. "Nigga, really?" I ask. He nods his head yes as he plugs his phone up to the AUX. "What happened to calling you on the way home? Get out!" I demand as he turns the radio up loud nodding his head and rapping along to DaBaby's song Walker Texas Ranger like I'm not trying to put him out of my car right now.

He just rapped the whole song and is now looking back at Reiylah and playing with her, so I take that as his refusal to take his ass back in his house.
"Drew, why can't you take no for an answer?" I ask. He is always chasing the shit out of me. I can't do anything without him either calling me back to back until he gets an answer, him popping up at my house or Miguel's apartment looking for me, calling my little brother Amari to look for me, and just flat out bothering me.

"Now you see how I felt when you was on my dick as teenagers and I was fronting like I didn't wanna fuck with you. I know an act when I see one, and you acting like you don't want me when I know you do."

I rolled my eyes at his cocky self. He swears up and down he got me figured out, when he doesn't. "Well, I'm not on it now. Why would I want to be with you after how you mistreated me? On top of that, I'm not naive. I'm mature enough to know that I made a serious mistake by doing what I did with you. I learned from that, real talk. If I was willing to come between you and Shai and got pregnant, why would I think another woman won't do me how I did her? Why would I think you won't do me the same way you did your wife? That shit was foul. I'm sorry, but I'm just trying to live right," I explain.

"That's the past, Reign. I learned from what I did too. Shai was innocent and got caught in the middle of something that she didn't deserve. That's why I'm not tripping over her and Majesty no more. I personally would've never done him like that if he had a wife, but I understand. He said it started as some get back shit for how I was hurting you, but he fell for her and vice versa. I got nothing but respect and love for both of them. I acknowledged where I went wrong, but because we did some fucked up shit don't mean me and you can't be happy."

I sigh. "Drew, I don't know. I just don't wanna look stupider than I've already made myself look. I finally regained my family's respect. I got a good relationship with my parents. The first time I got drunk in forever was at the pool party. Plus, I barely smoke weed now. I'm really trying to keep a clear head. I don't wanna do shit that alters my mind and makes me wild the fuck out with my mouth and my hands again. I wanna be normal. Being with you brings out the rage in me because you try me too much. I can't do it," I tell him.

He nods his head. "Reign, look me in my eyes right now and tell me you don't love me and want me right now and I'll stop," he says. I take a deep breath then look at him. "Drew, I do love you. I wish we could be together, but we can't. I don't want to fuck up my progress, and I don't wanna ruin our friendship again." I say. "If you wish we could be together, be with me," he says, cupping my chin with his hand. "Move!" I yell with wide eyes, pushing him off me. "What?" He asks as I grab my gun. He looks beside me. "Fuck!" He yells as I start shooting out the window at a man that was approaching his window with a big ass shot gun. Glass is everywhere and my baby is in the back screaming.

Drew snatches the gun. "Get the fuck on! Drive off with the baby and don't come back!" Drew yells as he hops out the car. I'm scared as fuck as gunshots ring out. I don't know who that man was or what the fuck is going on. Usually, I would stick around but I have to protect my daughter. I'm driving as fast as I can to get away while she screams to the top of her lungs. I just called my dad.

"What's wrong? Why the baby hollering?" He asks. "Daddy... they... I don't know! Drew needs help at his house... they gone kill him!" I cry, shaking. I can barely talk, I'm so scared. I never got used to this side of my family's lifestyle. I fucking hate it. "What you mean somebody killing him? What happened, Reign?" He asks. "What's going on?" I hear my momma ask as they move around in the background. "Reign, take yo ass home, now. We'll figure it out later. We on the way," is all he said before hanging up.

I just got to the house. "What the hell happened?" Noble asks. He was pulling into the driveway at the same time as me. "We were talking in the car and about to come here. I saw the man creeping up with the gun, so I shot at him. I don't really know if I hit him or not. When Drew realized, he took my gun and hopped out. He told me to leave. I'm so scared," I cry to Noble. He wraps his arms around me.

My child could've been killed in the middle of whatever that was and that shook me. I don't know how my parents went our whole lives without being scared of stuff happening to us. Plus, if something happens to Drew, I don't know what I would do. I won't even know how to live knowing his last words to me were him trying to be with me and me just rejecting him.

I just got in the house. Why the hell is he here? Qua is sitting down at the dining room table with KeKe. "Hey, bro." I greet KeKe, hugging him. He just spoke back and grabbed Reiylah. "Wassup Uncle Baby?" He asks, making her smile after crying for so long.

"Reign, you can't speak?" Qua asks. "Hey," I greet him bluntly. Qua just ain't somebody I want to deal with. I don't have anything against him, but I just don't fuck with him. He's still really close to my family, but it's almost like me and him never had shit. If I don't want to be with the man I have a child and more history with, I damn sure don't want to be with Qua. I'm just on some me shit right now.

"Can I talk to you real quick?" Qua asks. "I'll keep an eye on the baby," KeKe's petty ass says, laughing a little. He knows I don't want no one on one time with this nigga right now. I'm shaken up and not in the mood. "Yeah, Qua," I agree just to shut him up.

We just walked out of there and into the living room. Serenity, Sage, Dream, and Amari are all in here fighting like they crazy. Amari is recording them on his phone. "Stop hitting each other! Break this shit up! Amari, why you recording they little asses fighting?" I fuss at them, pulling Dream and Serenity off of Sage. They were jumping my poor baby brother. My brothers used to team up on me, now it's the girls against him. That's so funny to me but I have to be the good big sister and not let them go at it.

"They started this shit!" Sage snaps. "Watch your mouth! You know that's a bad word. Make me get my belt if you want to," I threaten him. His eyes widen as he backs away from me. These kids need some correction. Ever since I've been living here, I occasionally have to beat some ass because it's like my mom and don't don't be giving two fucks about what my baby siblings do. We were bad as hell growing up, but they at least used to damn near put us in the hospital for certain stuff. It was a few times they went overboard with beating our asses and had to call the family doctor for our injuries. It ain't none of that for the little ones though. They could get away with murder because their old asses are tired of these kids.

"What are y'all even fighting about?" I ask. "So, me and Serenity were playing Michael Jackson on the Wii and Sage turned it off and turned on the Xbox to play 2k. First of all, he don't even know how to play that because Noble beat him over and over last time," Serenity explains. "Shut up!" Sage yells at her. I shake my head. "KeKe, come babysit!" I yell loud enough for him to hear me in the dining room. From the looks of it, he was on duty. I don't have time for this shit.

Qua and I just walked upstairs to the theater. "What did you want to talk about?" I ask. "I miss you. I miss our friendship. Can you give me a chance to make everything right?" He asks. "Please get out my face on that simp shit right now. You chose to mess us up okay? You're the same mothafucka who fucked a bitch raw and ate her pussy and all that in my brother's living room. If Majesty never got drunk and mad enough to expose you after Presley's funeral, I would've never known." I go off.

"That's not true, Reign. I wanted to tell you, but that's when we found out Presley, LaLa, Sean, Wendy, and Drew got shot, remember? It was too much happening around us and I didn't wanna make shit more complicated after you heard your brother got killed and that your sister almost died. Regardless of whatever terms you and Wendy were on before she got killed, that was still a friend to you before all that. You were fucked up and I just couldn't bring myself to tell you."

I shake my head at him. "Maybe, if you wouldn't have done it, you would've never had to worry about having shit to tell me." I say. "You right, but I can't change a year ago. I know you still love me, Reign. Just let me prove myself." He says. My phone just started ringing. Qua can let this conversation go. It's Drew calling anyway and I need to make sure he's okay.

"Hey, you okay?" I asked him. "Yeah, I'm alright. I was calling to let you know I'm getting your window fixed tomorrow." He says. "I ain't worried about the window. We can handle that later. I just wanna make sure you're okay." I say. "I'm good. I'm on the way to your house with Ant and Jessica right now. It was just some lil niggas trying to rob me." He tells me. "Tell me more when you get here," I say. "Bet. I love yo big fine ass." He says, making me laugh. "I love you too." I admit before hanging up.

I may be worried about myself, but I really do love him. I would've went crazy without him, honestly. Qua is glaring at me looking pissed the hell off. "What?" I ask. "So, you just finna act like you didn't just pick up the phone while I'm talking to you?" He asks. "I did. I said really all I had to say. What you did hurt me and was beyond foul as fuck. It hurt worse from you because I never imagined you being that type of nigga. I'm not saying I didn't have my flaws like going crazy on you, but raw dogging a random hoe and giving her head like I ain't shit was just too much." I say.

He sighs. "It's been a year, Reign. I have to watch you in passing and every time we run across each other, you don't speak or you leave altogether. I don't like that. I'm tired of pretending like a stranger to you." He admits. "Well, that's the only way I can be over you, so that's what's been working for me." I tell him.
"Be honest, are you and Drew back together?" He asks. "Nope, he hurt me too so I'm not with him neither. However, I signed myself up for the bullshit when I decided to not only disrespect myself for being a damn side bitch, but for disrespecting Shai because that woman was his wife no matter how we felt about her.
I shouldn't have been okay with what I was doing, so I'm not shocked by Drew being a dog. It was to be expected. I just never thought you would hurt me." I explain.

He's just standing here looking sad. "Well, I'll talk to you later." I say. I just walked out the theater and he didn't bother to come after me. I hope he understands what I'm saying, but even if he doesn't, how I feel still stands.

I've been in my room chilling. KeKe still has Reiylah so I'm enjoying my me time since I barely have moments where I don't have to be in mommy mode. I'm drinking a glass of Patrón, Lemonade, and Sprite that I mixed together while I listen to Summer Walker's Over It album with the lights off and only my candles lit. I'm only in a crop top cami with no bra and panties on. I can't be like this with my daughter so it feels so good.

I need to call and check on Tae, but I'll do it later. I don't know if I'm going to Shai's house warming that my mom insists that I go to. I don't want to make her feel awkward in her own house for coming with a baby I made with her ex husband. My mom says she's over that, but I don't know.

The door just opened and broke me from my thoughts. It's Qua. I can tell he's caught off guard by me being pretty much naked in here, but he might as well walk back out that door. He just closed the door and invited himself in here. This nigga is staring at me like he's in a trance.

I can't lie, Qua is sexy to me still. My pussy just came to life looking at him, but imma blame it on the liquor mixed with no having sex since before I had my child a whole year ago. A bitch is horny and I know what he's capable of. I just really don't want to open that can of worms up. That's the reason I haven't slept with Drew neither. I'll complicate everything.

"Did I interrupt something?" Qua asks. I nod my head yes. I don't know why I want this nigga in the worst way right now. I am so gotdamn horny. I didn't even think he would still make me feel like this. I know I'm over him and Drew, but dang. He needs to just leave.

He walks over here. "Qua, don't." I say as he lays me back. "Be quiet. You want me too. Imma fix this shit." He says, kissing my neck. I can't help the moan that came out. "No," I weakly say, pushing him away. I can't go back to this man in no way, shape, or for.

Too much liquor known to make you call a nigga
and I done had too much
Which is giving me excuses to make me think I want you when I don't, and I know this.
I know that you a dog, you always do me wrong, but it make me wanna call you like I'm on one, and I want some, and I need you to come over
Too much patron'll have you calling his phone...

Summer walker is singing my feelings right now. I know good and well I don't want this nigga for being a dog, but his kisses on my neck feel too good to stop him. "Take this shit off." He demands, lifting my cami. I take it off then look at him as he bites his lip staring at my body. He takes my nipple in his mouth making me moan. I haven't felt that in so long. My pussy is so wet, it's making a puddle under me.

Drew just popped in my mind. I don't lead him on like we'll be together and I don't play with his emotions at all, but for some reason I feel bad for this shit because he puts in so much effort and I ignore it because I know he's capable of doing me how he did Shai. My mind is telling me to stop doing this, but my body got a mind of its own.

"Fuck, Qua!" I cry out while he eats my pussy like he got a point to prove. "Stop running." He demands, gripping my titties while he eats the life out my shit. He lifts his body up then pulls his pants down. His dick is on brick right now. It's so big and looks so good. He hovers over me. "Open yo mouth." He instructs. My dumb ass did just that, allowing him to start fucking my mouth until I started gagging.

He pulls it out of my mouth then spreads my legs. I gotta brace myself because it's been so long. He starts slowly pushing it in and it's hurting so bad, but I'm anticipating the feeling he'll give me. "Damn, this pussy so fucking tight, baby." He groans. He just stopped stroking to say that. All I know is he better not nut quick.

Qua got me in here screaming while he fucks me rough. "Ohh, right there!" I moan while he holds my legs back as far as they'll go. He's biting his lip and looking away while he goes even harder and deeper. "Fuck!" I scream, digging my nails in his back while I cum. His dick is covered in my cream and so is my bed.

He pulls out and flips me over. He enters me from behind. "Throw that pussy back." He demands. I'm doing just that too. His light moans and slapping me on my ass just made me go harder. He grips my waist. Him grinding into me from behind slowly just drove me crazy. He pushes my face down into the bed then climbs on the bed. He's hitting it like that and got me squirting.

I been grippin' on your waist
Flexed up, tryna beam you outta place (Yeah)
Made love on the low-key
Now I'm tryna fuck you broad day (Oh)
Tell me leave, I'ma stay (Stay)
I'm just tryna get a taste (Taste)
Chef's kiss for my next wish
Liplock on my face
Okay, I like it, like it
My pipe likely
Have her redialing
Trying to fight it
She gon' throw it back, I'ma run and get a ring, yeah
Then she gon' open up and take one for the team, yeah

This nigga just fucked me completely on beat to 6lack's verse on Summer Walker's track Like It. "Pull out," I said. I could tell he was close to nutting because he just started ramming my shit fast and hard. He's damn near about to knock me across the bed with how hard he's fucking me. "Shitttttt," he groans, nutting. "Nigga didn't I tell your ass not to nut in me?" I yell at him, jumping up. I'm on birth control, but I did not want this mothafucka to cum in me.

"My bad. I wouldn't mind giving Reiylah a sibling though." He jokes. "Fuck you. Get out and act like it never happened." I say. "Really, Reign? Stop running from how the fuck you feel! What, you scared of Drew?" He yells. "I ain't scared of nobody. I don't answer to him and I don't answer to you neither. Just get out of my face." I demand. "How you flip that fast, Reign? For real?" He asks in disbelief. "Yeah, for real." I say. He fucked me good, but I did not plan on this. I figured the next time I had sex  would have been with a new nigga.

He shakes his head. "Bet." He says, putting his clothes on while I snatch the sheets and cover off the bed to be washed. I walk past him then into the bathroom to take a shower. He follows me in here while I climb in to wash up. "Really?" He asks, watching me wash myself. "Yeah, Qua. I wasn't trying to double back. It just started feeling good." I say. "You ain't over me, Reign. Admit it." He says. I ignore him while thoughts of Drew pop into my head. He'll be so hurt if he finds out.

After my shower, I began making my bed up with clean sheets and a clean comforter like Qua wasn't standing there looking pissed off and played. "You can let yourself out." I say. He turns to walk out. "Shit," I mumble. Drew just swung the door open looking mad as hell right now. He walks in here. "Fuck going on?" He asks, balling up his fists. Qua smirks a little as he walks by. "Step aside, nigga," Qua says in a warning tone while he tries to get out the room but Drew won't move. He's all in Qua's face glaring at him.

"Drew, stop." I say, stepping between them. Qua wraps his arm around my waist right in front of Drew then kisses the back of my neck. "Imma see you later." Qua says before walking out. "Aw hell naw," Drew snaps, walking out the room. I just heard a fist connect so I know Drew swung on him. This is not a fight I need happening again. Those niggas did damage to each other the last time they had a fight.

"Stop!" I scream while they throw blows in the hallway. "Oh yeah, this the rematch! Let's goooooooooooo! Let's get ready to rumbleeeeeeeeee!" Noble yells, running up the hall to watch. He's recording it. "Stop recording them and break this shit up!" I yell at Noble. "Hell naw, let em fight. It's been a while since I saw some real action." Noble says. Now my parents and KeKe are all up here watching these niggas go at it.

"What they fighting for?" My dad nonchalantly asks before drinking from his bottle of Hennessy like he does not care about this situation at all. "Long story. Can you break them up?" I ask. My mom starts eyeing me. "Mhmm... I know why they fighting. I can hear very well. I'm the only one that's supposed to be getting some dick in this house." She says, making Noble and KeKe start laughing at me. I am so embarrassed.

"Alright, you got yo point across." KeKe says, pulling Drew away. At the moment, he had the upper hand but Qua still wasn't going for it. My dad pulled Qua away too. "Yeah, fuck you mean, nigga? Touch her in my face again!" Drew starts yelling at Qua. Qua starts laughing. "Imma do more than that." He says.

"Stop!" I scream at both of them as my dad diffuses it. "Imma let myself out." Qua says before walking away pissed. I just ran into my room before anybody can even get started on me. Drew storms in here behind me then closes the door. "Did you fuck him, Reign?" He yells. "Yeah." I answer truthfully. The truth hurts, but I'm only his child's mother in actuality.

He's just looking at me like I hurt him. I understand they have to work together. I don't know what my dad and uncle were thinking by letting those two take their places. I just hope this doesn't mess up the business. "Bet. I see how it is now. A nigga who you been done with who you claim you don't deal with just fucked you. You got it." He says. "Drew, please hear me out," I beg, grabbing his hand.

He snatches away. "It ain't nothing to hear. You told me what it was a long time ago. You been telling me you don't want me. Imma give you what you want. Imma just step back and be baby daddy. You can feel how you feel about the past, but Reign, I haven't fucked with not one bitch since this baby was born. I have been all about you. I wasn't perfect in the past, but I ain't been doing shit but giving you time to see my growth. I guess I brought this one on myself for thinking I could make you want me." He says.

"It's not what you think. I don't want you to feel played, Drew. It just happened, honestly. I don't want him. I'm just focused on myself. That doesn't mean I was trying to hurt you." I explain. He chuckles. "I'm off you. We on some strict co-parenting like you asked. I'm finna go see my lil girl." He says. I just broke down crying as soon as he walked out. I'm single and over them both, so why am I hurt because I hurt him?

LALA

Me and Sean are over Tae's apartment. I'm watching those two smoke a blunt together. I remember when Tae didn't even smoke weed. Now, he's sitting here on the fifth blunt with Sean. His friend Lianna walks in here looking mad. "Tae, why do you keep smoking in the house? That shit stinks! That smell is hard to get out!"  She starts going off, making me laugh. Tae is so high, he's just staring at her like he does not care. "This my house." He reminds her. "Okay, and? I live here and if you expect me to stay, I expect you to stop stinking this shit up!" She goes off again.

Him and Sean just started laughing. "When are y'all getting married? Y'all get into it like my momma and daddy." I say, making Tae laugh. He pulls her down on his lap. "She ain't going nowhere." He says. "Yes I am. I told you your mom said I could live in your family's mansion. I'm going there if you keep on." She threatens. "And? Like I said before, my lil brothers and sisters will have you running back here. You ain’t built for that." He says. He got a point. All my momma and daddy kids got issues except me.

"Whatever. Are we still going to that housewarming your mom told us about?" Lianna asks. "I'm going just to go. Ever since I got shot, I be wanting to do everything." Sean says. Lianna looks at his neck. "Let me see your scar." She says. I raise my eyebrow as she examines Sean's neck. She's touching the shit and everything. "You must not know I'll chop yo hand off?" Tae asks her. "Does it hurt when you talk?" Lianna asks Sean, ignoring Tae. "No. I couldn't talk for a long time after my coma. I had to learn how to speak correctly again and learn to walk. It was like I got taught all over again like I was a toddler. I know I sound funny when I talk now, but I'm just grateful I even can." Sean answers.

I'm so glad he didn't die. Since he's out of recovery and came to the pool party my mom and dad threw, we've been talking on the phone or kicking it a lot. I missed the nigga so much. He acts like he didn't hear me confessing my feelings and Imma keep it that way. It's better how it used to be when I was pretending like I didn't care.

"Did you feel the bullet go in?" Lianna asks. She's getting on my gotdamn nerves all in his face like that. If I get up and bop her upside the head, she'll swear I'm wrong. "Bruh, what kind of dumb ass question is that? Tae got shot in the chest when we were kids. Why you not asking him about how that felt going in?" I buck at her.

"Chill out. She didn't even know I got shot." Tae says. I remember when he almost died when we were little and Noble literally carjacked somebody to get him to the hospital when it was traffic.  "What's wrong LaLa? I can't ask Sean a question?" Lianna asks me. I take a deep breath. "Look, I wish y'all would wrap y'all smoking session up. We gotta be on time or momma will flip for no reason." I say, ignoring her.

She starts smiling wide. "LaLa, it's obvious that you like him. I like your brother anyway. You don't have to worry about me." Lianna says. "Shut the fuck up, bruh, damn! Mind yo business!" I yell at her. Sean grabs my hand. "Relax. I know how you feel. You don't have to get defensive about it." He says calmly. "I don't feel anything." I lie. "Suuuuuuure, ya don't." Tae sarcastically chimes in. "Nobody asked yo bucket head ass." I say.

"Why you so scared to tell him? He already knows." Lianna says. "Because it's nothing to tell." I answer. "Leave her alone. She'll holla at me when she ready." Sean says. "I gotta pee." I lie. Sean helps me stand up. "I can make it by myself." I say. "I got you." He assures me. Every once in a while I have trouble doing certain stuff since I'm still kinda physically recovering from being paralyzed. I can walk, but my legs just give out on me out the blue sometimes. It's better than when I couldn't even feel my legs for a long time though.

He just walked me into the bathroom. "What's wrong with you?" He asks. "Nothing." I lie. He smirks. "Awwwww, my lil savage jealous?" He asks. "Jealous for what? O'Sean, shut up." I demand. "Oh yeah, you big jealous. Shit got you pulling out my government name." He jokes, laughing. "Hush. No I'm not." I say, pulling my pants down. "Oh damn, LaLa." He says. I don't even have to pee. I figured he would've gotten the hint and walked out.

He walks closer. "Yo pussy so pretty, bae." He says, making me feel weird. "Sean, shut the fuck up and turn around so I can pee." I say. "Naw, I like the view. I know you jealous though. When you gonna admit you feeling me too? I know her being all on me made you feel some type of way. You wanted to beat her ass when she touched my neck, didn't you?" He asks. I pull my pants back up because me lying like I had to use it obviously wasn't making him leave.

"Yeah." I admit. I was jealous, I can't even lie. He smirks before kissing my forehead. "Aight. That's progress." He says. I can't even look him in the eyes, but whatever. At least he somewhat knows how I feel, so when another female gets all in his face and I drag her ass, the bitch's blood will be on his hands.

-

We all just walked into Shai's house warming. Her place is decorated nicely and smells like apples and cinnamon mixed with Mexican food because they cooked tacos and shit. "Hey!" She greets us, waving. Shai looks really good now. She was never ugly, but this bitch is extra bad now. Majesty's girl was fine too, but if he does come today, he just might fold. I know I would if I was in his shoes.

It's like she went out her way to look sexy as hell. She's wearing an orange bodycon dress that exposes her whole back and a pair of gold heels with matching jewelry. Her ass got way fatter too. Majesty got a problem on his hands and it's probably best to stay away if he wanted to stay faithful to Harper.

Sean, Tae, and I just all looked at each other thinking the same exact thing. "When the fuck she get so fine though?" Tae asks. Lianna punches him in his side. "My bad, but still. Like damn...I think I wanna risk beefing with my brother for fucking with her." Tae says. "You can't handle all that ass. That's all me. Yeah, Drew might have to take this L. Ion care if he wifed her." Sean has the nerves to say. I draw back then slap his ass.

"Watch yourself." I warn him. I'll break his jaw in this girl's apartment right now in front of everybody. My feelings are not finna be played with if he knows I'll be jealous. I'm still a savage. Nigga better act like he know that.

"Dang, you really had to do that?" He asks, rubbing his cheek. My mom walks over to us. "Well, hello to y'all. Do I smell Marijuana?" She asks in her white woman voice. "Why, yes you do, mother." Tae matches her tone. She yanks him up to her by his shirt. "Didn't I tell you come and act like you got some sense? Don't nobody wanna smell no weed!" She fusses. The front door just opened. My uncle Vonte barges in with a blunt in his hand. "Kenfoooooooooolk!" He playfully yells, making me laugh. "I thought weed wasn't permitted?" Tae says, making my mom roll her eyes.

"Hey, Vonte." She greets him as he hugs her. My dad walks over here. "Six feet mothafucka. Didn't I tell you you cannot touch my wife under no circumstances? Speak and keep it pushing." He says to my uncle. "Ooooh, this finna be good." Sean's ole instigating self says. My uncle starts laughing before walking over to Shai with a gift bag. "Nice house." He says to her before sitting on the couch and pulling out his phone. I'm surprised he got her a housewarming gift in the first place.

"Is Reign coming?" Tae asks. "Yeah. She said she was outside." My mom answers. "Imma go help her get the baby." He says, turning to walk out. Sean, Lianna, and I just went into the kitchen and sat down. It's only us, my parents, and my uncle here. I figured my brothers were not coming to her house warming because they don't even talk to her. I just came because my momma insisted and said that Shai didn't have anybody to invite.

"You the one who fucked the nigga! Fuck on somewhere with yo attitude!" I hear Drew yelling from the front. "Shut the hell up! Damn!" I hear Reign scream back. We just walked up there to see what's going on. Tae is laughing as he approaches us. "They pulled up at the same time and started arguing as soon as they saw each other. Who she fuck?" Tae asks. I shrug my shoulders.

"Don't come in here with no drama." My momma says to Drew and Reign as Reign gives Shai a gift bag. "I like your decorations and it smells really good." Reign awkwardly says to Shai. Shai pulls her in a hug. "Thanks." She says. That's growth. I remember when they hated each other.

"Gimme my niece." Uncle Vonte says, taking Reiylah out of Drew's arms. Shai has never even seen the baby because she up and moved away after she found out Majesty cheated on her. It's just this awkward silence as everybody wait on her reaction. "Can I hold her?" Shai shockingly asks Reign. Reign nods her head yes. Shai picks her up then smiles. "You're so beautiful." She says to Reiylah. Reiylah is smiling at her. "She looks like a perfect mixture of you two. Congratulations. She is such a blessing." Shai says to Reign and Drew, hugging Reiylah. It takes a lot of maturity to be connecting with your ex husband's child he had on you, but to each his own. I would’ve jumped on Reign if I were her, but that's just me.

"Thank you." Reign says, in tears. My mom's dramatic self just started fanning her eyes. Reiylah just kissed Shai on the cheek. "Awww, she is so sweet! I want a baby now." Shai gushes. "I'll give you one. I clearly make pretty babies." Drew's bold ass says. He just caught everybody off guard with that one. Shai puts Reiylah down. "The food is ready..." she awkwardly says before walking away. "You ain't shit." Reign says to Drew before storming behind Shai into the kitchen. This is already messy.

MAJESTY

"What's wrong with you?" I ask my girl. Harper has been acting weird ever since she saw Shai at the pool party. She constantly asks if I love her or if I have or will cheat on her. No matter how many times I tell her that I don't want anybody else, she just can't accept that answer. I may have had a weak moment when I let Shai get close to me when we ran into each other at the bathroom, but I didn't even let it get anywhere. I walked away.

"I just don't know why you want to go to your ex girlfriend’s house warming." She answers. Yep, my dumb ass is on my way to her crib right now. "I'm just going because my mom and pops threw it and wanted me to be there. I invited you so you can see it's nothing going on." I say. Really, I invited her for my own good. I won't be tempted to stretch Shai out if my girl is sitting there.  It's easy to be faithful when I'm with her.

"Whatever. I don't really like her. She clearly wants you." She says. "No she don't." I just told a bold faced lie. I know Shai would drop everything for me right now if I wanted her to. I just ain't about to even go there with her. I haven't gone nine months with no sex and being faithful to Harper for nothing.

I obviously really want her because anybody who knows me knows that in the past, I never would've even got in a relationship with no female who didn't wanna fuck me until I married her. Hell, I wasn't even in a relationship until I got with Shai. On top of that, I never even considered the married life because of my take on marriage after seeing how my parents went. So, if I'm even respecting her wishes to wait until marriage, I actually see myself proposing to her one day. I get she don't know the old me so she really don't understand I really fuck with her hard.

"That girl is in love with you. Have you talked to her since that day? Majesty, please don't lie to me." She begs. "No, baby. Hell naw. When I had time to talk to her if I'm always talking to you?" I ask. I spend my time with her and my sons Major and Marion. Precious ain't tripping about her being around Major and neither is my other baby momma India. She got a boyfriend herself and he a cool nerdy nigga. He's been around my lil boy and we got an understanding that his ass is dead if he ever tries him, so we good. As long as a nigga doing right by my kids, I don't care if my baby mommas do them. That's a part of moving on. Harper helped me understand that.

"I'm sorry if I'm coming off as insecure. I was just your therapist when she broke up with you and left, so I remember you being really upset and hurt. I remember you missing her and begging for her to come back and you've expressed to me how much you loved and and wanted to be with her. Now that she's back around and you and I together, I'm just afraid of old feelings resurfacing. Do you still love her? You know that you told me your deepest feelings for her, things you never even told her before when you and I had a professional relationship." She says. I got two choices, I can admit I'm not exactly over her but accepted that I had to move on, or I can lie. Right now, I don't know which move is the smartest. If I tell the truth, I'll lose my girl. If I lie, I'll feel guilty because I pride myself on being a better man this time around.

"Listen, I don't know how to put it to you. Do I still care about her? Yes, I do. I don't wanna lie to your face like I don't. Am I trying to cheat on you and go be with her? Hell naw. She is a part of my past. You my future." I answer honestly. She sighs as we pull into a park at the address my momma sent me. "If you want to cheat, please just leave before you stoop that low." She says. I reach over and grab her hand. "I won't do that." I assure her. Fuck Imma leave her for? This girl be putting a smile on my face even when I'm mad at her.

We just got out and walked to the front door. Reign texted me and said it's unlocked, so I just grabbed Harper's hand and walked in. Fuck. It smells like Shai in here. That sweet scent that was always on her. "Hey, Harper. Hey my handsome baby!" My mom greets us, hugging harper. "Hey ma." I say, giving her a hug. She kisses my cheek. "Hi." Harper nervously says, squeezing my hand. I think my momma intimidates her for whatever reason.

"The food is ready. Come in." She says, leading us to the kitchen. Shai is sitting at the table and I'm confused as hell because Drew is sitting next to her. Reign is standing at by the stove looking salty. I must've missed something. I know Shai ain't back fucking with Drew. Let me mind my business. What I look like thinking about that when my girl right here?

I made my rounds speaking to everybody lingering around. Now it's time to speak to Shai and Drew. "Wassup?" I greet Drew, shaking his hand. I look at Shai as she stares at me. I know that look from anywhere. She used to look at me like that when I was turning her down. "You really brought her to my house?" She boldly asks, standing up. "What? She is my girl. What's the problem?" I ask. "Yeah, your girl who got in my face and threatened me over you. I don't like her. Get the fuck out!" Shai starts spazzing out of nowhere.

"What is going on?" Reign asks, just as confused as me. "Nobody threatened you. What you talking about?" I ask. "She threatened me over you when I was leaving the restroom at your parents' party. This bitch prances around like she's innocent when she's not. Now, if you get in my face where I live, I'm gonna beat the skin off your ass!" Shai starts getting hyped up. I don't know what's going on, but I feel like a proud parent. Shai used to be a punk before I turned her out.

"Get out my girl face with this bullshit, Shai. Let's not do this." I say. It's uncalled for. I don't know about no threats when I wasn't around, but I know Harper didn't come for no fight right now. "Okay, can somebody explain this?" My mom asks. At this point, everybody's in the kitchen watching this shit. Of course, LaLa, Tae, and Sean have phones out recording. I can't let my girl and Shai fight. Had Shai been another girl, I wouldn't care.

I look at Harper. She got a smirk on her face as she watches Shai in silence. "This bitch came at me over Majesty at your house and got the nerve to be standing where I live." Shai tells my mom. "How we miss that?" My dad asks. My mom shrugs her shoulders. "What you smirking at?" Shai asks her. "You. I know what I'm capable of doing to you, so I'm not about to argue." Harper answers.

"Please, get her out of here. I'm begging you." Shai says, balling her fists up. "What's your real issue? What, do I make you jealous?" Harper asks. "Jealous for what? You have NOTHING on me. Girl you have a fucking ten year old boy haircut and two chopsticks for a body. You're by far the least attractive girl Majesty has ever had. You stepped to me because you feel threatened by me. So like I said, you have a lot of nerve for coming here." Shai says.

"Bitch please. Ugly where? And nobody's intimidated by a slut hoe who slept with her husband's bestfriend and fell in love. Nobody's jealous of a trifling bitch who aborted triplets. Yes, I know all about you. Don't play with me." Harper says. I told her that when she was just my therapist and I was venting about how that hurt me on the low but I never told Shai that. She wasn't supposed to speak on stuff I told her in private, so I'm pissed off now. If her and Shai fight, I don't even give a fuck no more.

Shai just did the unexpected. This bitched hauled off and slapped me so gotdamn hard, I'm seeing stars. "Uh uh, don't put your mothafuckin hands on my brother!" Reign starts tripping,  being held back by my uncle. "I'm not getting in this shit, but Shai, you better not do that again." My momma warns her. If my momma didn't like Shai, she would've drop kicked her ass for that.

I'm so mad right now. The inside of my mouth tastes raw and my face is stinging. "Dang, nephew. She smacked a hand print on yo face. Bruh, you can see all five fingers on the side of this nigga face." My uncle Vonte says, laughing. I'm just trying to figure out why my girlfriend is just standing here. I thought she was a rider. I wouldn't dare let no nigga hit her in her face and not beat his ass. As shaky as Shai used to be, she would've risked getting beat up before she ever let another woman hit me.

"Shai what the fuck you do that for?" I ask. "Because girlfriend or not, you never should've told her my personal business! Why would you tell her about my abortion? That was between you and I!" Shai screams, in tears. "He told me because I was his therapist." Harper nonchalantly tells her, shrugging her shoulders. "Keep her out of my business!" Shai yells in my face. I gently move her away from me. "Watch out!" I demand. "Shai you better get out my brother face bruh. I'm trying not to put my hands on you because y'all got feelings for each other." LaLa says.

"Ain't nobody putting their hands on anybody. That is enough. Majesty, take your girlfriend home. This is Shai's house and if she doesn't want her here, get her out of here." My mom says, looking Harper up and down. I already know why my mom is looking at her like that. My momma gave her a fair chance, but I know this woman well enough to know that she ain't for her not standing up to Shai after she put her hands on me. My momma would've dogged a bitch if she pulled that on my Pops. Everybody knows that.

"This bitch just started some mess as soon as we got here. She hates to see him happy. You left him, sweetheart. Remember that." Harper adds fuel to the fire. Once again, Shai just swung on me. She punched me in my chest. "Shai, fuck is you hitting me for?" I yell while she swings constantly. She crying and punching me all in my chest over and over and I don't even know why.

"What is wrong with this girl? Somebody better get her. Harper, you don't see her beating yo man up? You can do better than her." Reign says to me. "That was uncalled for. Be quiet." Harper says to Reign. "Girl, please. I'll stomp you just because you ain't riding for my brother." Reign says.

I grab Shai into a bear hug then gently slam her down on the floor. I accidently fell on top of her because she is still grabbing and punching me. I still don't even know what I did to set her off. "I love youuuuuu! Why did you have to cheat and hurt me then turn around and tell this bitch our business? I fucking loved you, Majesty!" She sobs, hitting me some more. I'm embarrassed as fuck. Everybody just watching this shit like TV. "Awwwww." Tae says, chuckling. "Shut up. She's hurt because he moved on." Lianna says to him.

"Shai, shut the fuck up and get yo hands off me. Calm yo ass down! I said I was sorry! I can't change nothing! You expected me to just be lonely and sit up missing you? Life had to move forwar!" I yell at her, holding her down while she goes crazier than I've ever seen her. "That's enough! Why are you consoling her right now?" Harper's voice cracks as she pulls me away by my shirt.

Shai stands up and punches Harper square in her face. "Yeah! Back up the shit you talked!" Shai yells at Harper. "Naw, stop!" I demand. Harper snatches away from me then tackles Shai into the table. My eyes widen. I'm shocked. My girl just turned into a whole football player. She starts punching Shai. Shai kicks her off then starts swinging. Harper got her by the hair but Harper has a short haircut so Shai don't have a choice but to strictly throw hands.

"Break your girls up. I'm not breaking my nails for this shit." My momma says. Drew pulls Shai away and I just pulled Harper. "Let's go!" I demand. "No, the bitch wanna fight? Let's fight!" Harper yells, wiping blood from her lip. "Shai actually drew blood this time. I'm proud of you." Sean says, making everybody except us laugh. I just threw her over my shoulder and walked out the apartment altogether.

The ride to drop her off at her place has been quiet and tense. "Why are you not saying anything?" She asks me. "What you expect me to say?" I ask, taking a deep breath. This is why I used to smoke so heavy. Shit stresses me out. I'm so tempted to just go smoke a blunt with Noble, but I ain't about to do it. Imma just work out when I get home or something. "I expect you to alologize for this and explain why you felt the need to deal with her." She answers. "Naw, you need to explain why you just stood there and let another woman swing on me like that." I say.

"Are you really mad at me for that right now? What was I supposed to do. I have too much to lose." She says. "But you didn't have too much to lose when you threatened her behind my back though, right? Harper, I'll just talk to you later. Yeah, I feel some type of way about that. You think I would stand there on mute when a nigga hit you? Naw, I wouldn't. Maybe, you just ain't built for a nigga like me." I say. Her eyes just filled with tears. "Are you breaking up with me for her?" She asks. "I'm not breaking up with you. I'm just letting you know you fucked me up with that. I just gotta think hard on this." I say.

"Wow, so it's like that?" She asks. "I'm sorry, Harper, but I'm not used to a woman just letting that happen. You just stood there. It got me thinking you won't stand up for me if you really have to." I say. "I'm just too mature for this." She says. "It has nothing to do with being mature. But you can have your feelings about it and Imma have fine. I'll let you know when I make it home. I need some space." I say as I pull into her driveway.

She leans in to kiss me, but I didn't kiss her back. "You don't even want to kiss me back?" Her voice cracks. I shake my head no. "Honestly, I'm just not feeling you right now. That's why I'm trying to get away from you." I tell her straight up. "Fine. I'm sorry I'm not ghetto." She says. "And I'm sorry you a fucking punk." I tell her straight like it is.

"Watch your mouth before I hit you in it." She threatens me. "Hit me in it. I don't give a damn. You should've been trying to hit her in hers since you wanna hit a mothafucka so bad! She gave you every reason to, and you didn't! Fuck out my face popping that hot shit!" I yell at her. "You've never talked to me like this! What the hell is wrong with you?" She screams. "Get out my car, Harper, damn!" I holler back. She jumps out then slams the door. I don't care. I'm through being nice to her when she does shit to piss me off.

I'm just about to go ride around to blow off some steam or go take a walk in the park by myself. I be having to find stuff to do to get my mind off getting drunk and high. I don't plan on staying mad at her, but right now I'm pissed and got a lot on my mind. So, I'll just talk to her later.

SHAI

I just got my place cleaned up. Everybody left after Majesty and I'm glad. The only person who stayed was Drew and I have no idea why. He's been helping clean up though.

"Why are you still here? It's late." I say. He looks at me. "I don't have a curfew and I'm single. I can be out as late as I wanna be." He says. "You and Reign looked like a couple at the party." I acknowledged. "Well, we ain't. We co-parenting and she fucking with Qua again." He says. He sounds mad, but that's none of my concern. "Okay. Well you can go if you want. I don't need anymore help." I say. "What if I wanna stay?" He asks.

After I fell in love with Majesty my romantic feelings for Drew went out the window. I'll always love him, but he did me beyond dirty and nobody could ever fill Majesty's shoes to me.

He walks over to me. He wasn't even getting this close to me when we were still married. He's been drinking. I can smell the Avion Tequila on his breath. "So, you really in love with him still?" He asks. "No." I lie. I don't want to face the reality of that. What can I do? Majesty's moved on.

He wraps his arms around my lower waist. My eyes widen. "Drew, what are you doing?" I ask as he leans in and starts kissing my neck. "You look so good." He lowly says, looking in my eyes. "Why are you all over me? I'm not about to fight with Reign over you." I say. "Fuck her. That's just my BM." He says. I pull away from him.

Somebody's knocking at the door. "I got it." Drew says. I don't need him opening my door like he's my man, so I'm following behind him to open it myself. I just jumped in front of him and opened it. Some roses in the shape of a giant pink teddy bear with a silver ribbon around it's neck just caught me way off gaurd. There's also a bag with three pairs of UGG slides. Beside it is a small back from Dior and another bag with a pair of pink Nike leggings, a crop top to match, and a pair of pink Air Max. There's also a pink Birkin bag. "Damn Shai. What nigga dropping racks on you like that? A Birkin?" Drew asks, seemind shocked. I shrug my shoulders then grab the little card. I open it. It only says 'I'm sorry for everything.'

Drew just helped me carry the gifts inside. Everything is one hundred percent my taste. Somebody starts knocking again. My heart just almost stopped beating at the sight of Majesty standing at my door looking at me like he used to. He's so damn sexy. The fact that he's not high or drunk is just such a turn on to me.

"What... what are you doing here?" I ask. He seems nervous. "I, um... Shai, I just dropped everything off and was about to leave on some coward shit, but fuck it. I'm sorry for everything I did in the past. I'm sorry for bringing her here. You right, I should've thought about how you would've felt seeing me with her in yo own house. I know it ain't easy to see me moved on. Truth is, I just wanted to see you, that's it. This is not me trying to play with your feelings or nothing, Imma still rock with her. I just wanted you to know I really am sorry for all the shit and I picked everything based on your taste, so I hope you like the gifts." He says. Sober Majesty is clearly a sweetheart.

I don't even know what to say. "Can you come in?" I ask. Drew has to go. I don't care about nobody's feelings when it comes to this man.  He sighs. "Please?" I softly ask, grabbing his hand. He reluctantly follows me in. I wrap my arms around him. He hugs me back then kisses me on my cheek. Drew just ruined my moment by walking over here. Majesty pulls away from me then chuckles. That's the angry chuckle I realized he used to do whenever he was trying to calm himself down.

He nods his head at Drew. "Oh, y'all like that again?" Majesty asks. "No. He was helping clean up." I say. "I didn't know you was doubling back too." Drew jokes with Majesty. Majesty just clenched his jaw. "Alright. Shai, I apologize. Imma let y'all get back to it though." He says, turning to leave. I follow him out then grab him. "Majesty, please don't leave," I beg. He shakes his head no. "I don't have no business being here, Shai. I need to be fixing stuff with Harper." He says. I step away as tears fill my eyes.

"She's not me." I say. "You too special to play the side bitch. Don't do that and I hate that weak begging shit. I'll see you around, Shai." He says before walking away once again. This literally hurts. It's something so weird about that girl and I just can't put my finger on it. "Fine, go bend over and kiss the ass of a bitch who doesn't eveh have your back!" I yell at him. He ignores me as he keeps walking. One day he'll see that she's not worth shit. Even his family said it after they left. She's nothing and I can't wait until she shows her true colors.

I hope y'all enjoyed this long ass update. Lol. Comment/vote.
