Angus walked out of his trailer frustrated while checking his phone for the hundredth time. 'Fuck' he muttered seeing Denasia hadn't texted him back. "You know where Denny is?" He asked as soon as Alexa walked on set. "She didn't tell you? Her grandma passed so she's taking time off to go to the funeral. By the way when you see her tell her imma come over to check on her" Alexa said before being called off to hair and makeup making Angus furrow his brows confused.

Why didn't she tell him?

Angus stared at his food in silence as everyone around him ate. The pit feeling in his stomach worsened by the second as he wondered if his girlfriend was okay. "You think she mad at me or something." he asked as soon as Alexa sat down making her sigh.

Alexa paused, studying him for a moment before replying. "Nah, it's not like that, Angus," she said gently. "Denny's been dealing with a lot lately. She probably just needed some space to process everything. Maybe go talk to her before she leaves tonight" she said before biting her burrito which Sydney laughed at while taking a picture.

"Denny!" Angus said, opening her apartment door with the key she gave him. She appeared from the corner confused and Angus's heart dropped at her red eyes. "Hmm?" She said putting more clothes in her carry-on ignoring the sympathetic look on Angus's face. "I heard about your gigi. I'm sorry ma" he said putting down the food he brought as Denasia fought the urge to let her tears go. "It's okay. Imma be back on set by Saturday anyway so it's whatever" she muttered folding her pajamas to put in her suitcase.

"When you leaving?" He asked examining her mess of an apartment. "Tomorrow in the morning" she replied quietly picking up the random stuff on the floor. He nodded as they fell into an uncomfortable silence Denasia was NOT fucking with. "You okay?" She said closing her suitcase and zipping it up. "I'm straight" he said sitting down on one of the stools at her kitchen island.

"Don't lie to me. Did something happen?" She asked concerned as Angus let out a concealed sigh. "Why you ain't tell me?" He replied making Denasia set her stuff down on her counter. "I didn't think I needed too cause' it doesn't concern you" She said opening her fridge avoiding his eyes. "Well if we're in a relationship then we gotta communicate shit. Especially if it's directly affecting you" he said under his breath to her. "What do you mean 'directly concerning me', i'm fine" she said making Angus kiss his teeth. "Fuck you mean 'I'm fine'? You was just crying!" He said rasing his voice as she rolled her eyes.

"I'm not finna do this shit with you today" Denasia said walking away from him as he grabbed her wrist gently so she didn't walk away. "Do what? Talk to me? Tell me what's going on with you? Lemme be there?" He said as she sucked her teeth in frustration. "Bro if you don't let me go-Fuck is you calling bro?!" He said cutting her off. "You nigga,you!" She responded pushing his hand off of her.

"I can't keep doing this shit with you," Angus said, frustration lacing his words. "I'm trying to be there for you, but you keep pushing me away."

Denasia's eyes flashed with defiance as she crossed her arms over her chest. "And what do you want me to do, Angus?" she shot back. "Just spill my guts to you every time something goes wrong? That's not how I deal with things."

Angus clenched his jaw, trying to rein in his temper. "I'm not asking you to spill your guts, Denny," he said, responding as she refused to look at him. "I'm asking you to let me in, to trust me enough to share what's going on with you."

Denasia shook her head, her frustration evident. "You don't understand, Angus," she said, her voice tinged with bitterness. "You think you can just swoop in and fix everything, but sometimes things aren't that simple."

Angus felt a surge of anger rising within him. "So what, you don't think I'm capable of handling whatever it is you're going through?" he snapped, his voice rising in volume.

Denasia's eyes narrowed, her own anger matching his. "It's not about that, Angus," she shot back. "It's about me needing space to figure things out on my own, without you breathing down my neck."

"I never knew me caring about my girlfriend was breathing down your neck." He replied shortly as Denasia's heart broke in two at the undertone of hurt in his voice. "Y'know i ain't mean it like that-Nah you did" he said cutting her off again which she shook her at. "I'm trying to be patient, Denny," He said, his voice softening slightly. "But you're making it damn near impossible. I need to know that we're in this together, that you trust me enough to lean on me when you need to."

Denasia's expression softened, a flicker of regret crossing her features. "I do trust you, Angus," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'm sorry if I've been shutting you out but she raised me. No one else was there for me when I was a kid so it's been hard for me. I'm really sorry." She said quietly as her eyes started to water, making Angus forget what he was even mad about.

She stayed being his Achilles Heel.

"I'm actually so sorry for getting mad. You was just tryna help" She whispered, voice breaking as he engulfed her in a hug closing the gap between them. "It's okay, I know you ain't mean it" he whispered placing a long kiss on her temple as they sat there finally in a comfortable silence.
