•Quincy's Point Of View•

"You niggas can't guard me" I laughed as I went up for my third layup. "That's game" I said as I caught the ball after it went through the net.

"Y'all ass straight garbage" I shook my head ass I walked over to the bench to grab my towel.

"No yo ass just got that crackhead ass stamina" Tez replied trying to catch his breath.

"Out of shape ass" Jalen said to Tez "Bean bag body built ass" Jalen joked and we all laughed.

"Man fuck you" Tez laughed.

I grabbed my gatorade bottle and began to chug it down.

"Q I see you back with your girl" Jalen stated.

"Goof ass. I'm single like a muhfucka" I laughed wiping the sweat from my forehead. "I haven't talked to shorty since she went back home"

"Nah nigga I'm talking bout Sydney" Jalen laughed.

"Sydney?" I said confused "The fuck made you say that?"

"Awe now the nigga wanna play dumb like we ain't see him on her story a few weeks ago" Mike laughed.

"She all happy and shit. She couldn't wait till you broke up with Paris" Ant chuckled shaking his head.

"She posted me on her story?" I said "Why the fuck y'all just now saying something?" I frowned.

"Nigga we didn't know it was a secret" Jalen laughed, "So you fucking her again?"

They all looked at me with a smug look upon their faces waiting to hear my response.

"It was one time"

"Ayeee!" They cheered and started to run around.

I started to laugh and shook my head. They ass was funny as hell. "It's not even like that"

"Q was in them lil cheeks again" Ant chuckled.

"Grow up" I laughed "Nah foreal though it wasn't even like that"

"Shit what was it like then?" Jalen questioned.

"It was just a one night stand. I went to scoop her and dropped her right back off at home the next morning" I replied.

After shit ended with Paris I just needed a quick nut. I've been holding off sex for so long because she lived in a different state. The lack of sex wasn't an issue, it was like my dick knew it belonged to her. But as soon as I was single it activated again.

It probably wasn't the brightest idea to call up Sydney but I knew she'd be down no questions asked.

"Why you playing with that girl feelings?" Ant chuckled shaking his head.

"Shit I let her know we was just fucking" I shrugged my shoulders "Afterwards she got to talking about us getting back together and shit. I knew I had fucked up." I replied.

I knew I didn't have feelings for Sydney but post nut clarity emphasized it even more. Fucking her wasn't even worth opening up that can of worms again.

"So what now? You getting back with Paris?" Jalen asked.

"Nah I'm chilling. I need to be single for a minute"

"Mmh. Well don't make shit awkward between you and Syd. I'm not tryna have second hand embarrassment every time we hang out" Ant tells me.

"I'm not. Imma play shit cool"

"Cool cool. Well Imma fuck with y'all" Ant said. We all dapped and said our goodbyes before parting ways.

"So you and Paris done done? Like faneto?" Jalen asked as we walked out the gym. We kept her Onlyfans thing just between us. She obviously wanted the shit to be a secret so we still respected that and wasn't going to air out her business.

"Yeah I ain't fucking with that Onlyfans shit plus she lied about it too"

"I meannn technically she didn't lie about it. You never asked" Jalen laughed shrugging his shoulders.

"Man fuck outta here" I smacked my lips. "She ain't on there poppin her pussy on camera but it's just the principle. I wish she would just delete it so we can move on"

"You gon pay her tuition? You can't just cut off her income." Jalen replied. We had made it to our cars but we weren't done with the conversation so we just leaned up against our vehicles and kept talking.

"Her people got money I'm pretty sure they could pay it"

"I mean maybe she don't want them to pay it. You know how parents be. They quick to throw what they did for you in your face" Jalen replied.

I nodded my head in agreeance "Shit maybe but still that's besides the point. She can make money other ways"

"She still work at footlocker right? Maybe she tried to make it other ways and it just didn't work out. C'mon now you always been big on communication, you gotta talk to her and hear her out. I mean unless you're done with her for real"

I fucked with Paris heavy, way beyond our romantic relationship. She's genuinely a good person. She's showed more support for my art career than muhfuckas I knew for years. She always checked up on me, asked about my day and if she could see the different stuff I was working. For once my relationship didn't feel one sided. All the energy I put in, she reciprocated.

I wanted to be with her but just the thought of the things niggas were doing to her videos made me sick. I know them girls on Onlyfans were bringing in big bank, so I couldn't knock her hustle. If niggas willing to pay for it, go for it.

Niggas ain't gon be paying to see my girl though.

"I'm done for the time being" I replied "But I'm finna head to the crib" I said and dapped up with him.

I hopped in the car and pressed the start button. Moneybagg Yo began to play as I drove to Sydney's house. I had no idea if she was home but I was still going to pull up on her. I pulled into her driveway and got out the car. I walked over to the front door and rang the doorbell.

"Hey what're you doing here?" She looked at me confused.

"You posted me on your fucking instagram?" I said inviting myself inside.

"I uhhh yeah but that was weeks ago" She replied closing the front door.

"The fuck made you think that shit was okay?" I knew exactly why she posted that shit and the narrative she was trying to paint.

"I didn't think you'd care this much. I'm sorry"

"C'mon now you knew what you was doing." I shook my head "We too grown for you to be being petty"

"Nah we're too grown for you to be acting like you don't want me back" She replied walking over to the couch "I let you fuck with her but c'mon now, y'all over with now. I'm not sparing her feelings anymore."

"You let me fuck with her?" I replied with a laugh.

"Trust me I could've been made you break up with her. She's all the way in Chicago c'mon now Quincy be real with yourself you know that relationship wasn't real" Sydney rolled her eyes and kicked up her feet on the couch. "She's not even that cute anyways, you can do better"

"You do remember that I'm the one that broke up with you right? You not running shit Sydney" I laughed.

"What am I not good enough for you anymore?"

"I'm not finna do this with you" I said and started walking to the door.

"Nah let's do this. The fuck she got that I don't?" Sydney grabs my hand.

"Look I'm gone. We shouldn't have fucked that night you obviously got shit confused now"

"Nah don't try to put this all on me. You know that bitch don't like me, you knew exactly what you were doing when you called me up. I just put the icing on the cake for you" She retorted. "You knew I still had feelings for you so you used that to your advantage to have sex with me. You aren't the good guy you think you are Quincy"

"Whatever Syd"

I walked out the front door and headed over to my car.

"And she saw the picture too so good luck getting back with her pooh!" She said aloud from her door step.

I just ignored her and got in the car. I'm already knowing Paris thinks I lied to her and that I've been fucking her this whole time. I couldn't even blame her for thinking that at this point. I fucked up.

•Paris' Point Of View•

I submitted my final essay before closing my computer. My grades were starting to slip but luckily I brought them back up. It felt good to be finished with this semester and that I can finally have a mental break for a few weeks before next semester started back up. I needed a break right now more than ever.

"You almost ready?" I heard Michelle say from the other side of the door.

"Yeah" I lied. I jumped up from my desk and went over to my closet to find something to throw on. I agreed to go to a party with Michelle and our friends. I grabbed the first dress I saw and put it on. It was this short yellow ruched bodycon dress. I looked in the mirror and luckily I didn't hate it.

I didn't feel like putting on any make up so I just threw on some lashes and lip gloss and decided to call it a day. I grabbed my purse and joined everybody in the living room.

"I'm ready" I said readjusting my dress a little.

"Never thought yo ass would get out the bed" Sean laughs draping his arm over my shoulder. I mocked him and rolled my eyes. "We missed you kiddo" Jacobi said draping his arm over my other shoulder.

"Man get off me" I laughed pushing them away.

"Alright c'mon. I'm ready" Michelle said as she walked out of her room.

We went down to Michelle's car and piled inside. Youngboy began to play as soon as the car started up. Sean began to roll up next to me.

"That better not be no mid." I said watching him closely.

"Yo ass don't even smoke foreal" He scoffed at me.

"Okay and? I've had a rough month I need to be touching the moon" I laughed taking the blunt from his hand as soon as he finished.

"Don't get that nasty ass lip gloss all over it" Jacobi says from the front seat as he handed over a lighter.

"I'm not" I sparked up the blunt and took a hit. I looked around to make sure nobody was paying attention to me and took another pull before passing it over to Sean. Once we made it to the party I was already faded.

"She saw my eyes she know I'm gone" I rapped a long with Travis Scott as we entered the house.

"Somebody point me to the bottles" Michelle said grabbing my arm and pulling me over to the bar.

"Henny shots and keep em coming" She says to the bartender.

"I'm so happy you finally shook that sadness" Michelle tells me "I missed you girl"

"I missed me too" I grabbed one of the shot glasses off the bar and handed it to her. We linked arms and tossed it back.

"If I'm not on my ass by the end of the night we obviously did something wrong" I laughed as I tossed back another shot. Megan Thee Stallion began to play and we instantly got hype.

"Real hot girl shit!" We shouted and ran out to floor where everybody was dancing.

"I would never trip about any old dick. If my heart broke it's nothing that my jeweler won't fix" I rapped as I winded my hips. I bent over and put my hands on my knees and started twerking on Michelle so no random nigga could come up behind me.

"Aye aye aye!" Michelle hyped me up as I twerked. We danced a little more before going to take some more shots.

"Y'all need to sit yall ass down" Jacobi chuckled coming up to us.

"And you need to get some pussyyy" I sang as I tossed back another shot.

"Shit what's good?" Jacobi said with a laugh.

"Not even in your dreams" I replied. I chased my liquor with some cranberry juice.

"Oooh this my song" I exclaimed "I get real about it all when I'm alone. It's so crazy missin' you when I get on" I sang loudly and off key. I sang along with Kehlani word for word, feeling every lyric like I wrote the song myself.

This hennessy in my system had me missing Q even though I know good and well I should be over him by now. I pulled out my phone and scrolled through my text messages looking for his name. I sat there staring at the screen debating on whether or not I should text him.

"How you doing?" I heard a voice say. I looked up from my phone to see this fall, caramel skinned guy standing next to me.

"Hey" I smiled locking my phone and stuffing it back into my purse.

"Oop c'mon Cobi" Michelle said grabbing Jacobi and walked away.

"I noticed you from across the room and just had to let you know how sexy you look in this dress" The guy complimented me causing me to blush.

"Well thank you sir. I appreciate it" I smiled. I didn't know if he was actually cute or if I was just drunk.

"I like them dimples" He smiled at me wetting his lips with his tongue.

"I like your smile" I complimented him back.

"What's your name? Where you from?"

"Paris and I'm from here. What about you?"

"I'm Kev and yeah I'm from here too. I ain't never seen you around before. Who you know here?"

"Shit nobody foreal. This is my friend's friend party" I replied shrugging my shoulders.

"Whatchu getting into after this?"

"Damn just like that?" I laughed shaking my head "You got the right idea, but the wrong bitch. It was nice meeting you though" I grabbed my cup and went to find my friends.

They were over in the corner smoking another blunt. I walked over to them and leaned against the wall.

"Damn you back already" Michelle said blowing clouds of smoke in the air.

"He just wanted to fuck" I stated taking a sip from my cup.

"Duh I could've told you that" Sean chuckled, "Normally ya ass be popped but you look halfway decent today"

"Yo ass a hater. You know I'm fine. It's okay you don't have to admit right now" I laughed "I'm going to the bathroom. I'll be back. Hold my purse" I handed my purse to Jacobi before going to find the bathroom.

I don't know what it is about alcohol but whenever I'm drunk I can't hold my bladder for anything. I didn't even bother knocking on the door I just opened it and prayed for the best.

No matter how drunk I am, I hovered over the toilet because I refused to just sit on this random ass toilet seat. I heard knock on the door causing me to try to move faster.

"I'll be right out!" I said aloud before flushing the toilet. I walked over to the sink and began to wash my hands. I could hear the door creak as it opened.

"Yo I said I'd be right out!" I replied as I grabbed a napkin to dry my hands. I looked over and it was the guy from downstairs.

"It's all yours" I said and reached for the door handle but he stood in front of it. "Umm excuse me" I said and tried to reach around him.

"You don't remember me?" He asked looking down at me.

"No and standing in front of the door isn't gonna change that. Watch out"

"I gave you $500 Paris or should I call you chocolategoddess?"

I looked up at him and just froze. I knew exactly where this shit was about to go. I reached onto the counter for my purse to grab my taser but then I remember I had given it to Jacobi.

"Remember you said you needed me inside of you" He said touching my hips and I quickly swatted his hand away. The more he talked the more I recognized his voice from the time I did that private call.

"I can fulfill those needs for you" He leaned down to kiss me and I immediately screamed for help.

He quickly covered my mouth with his hand and pushed me up against the wall "Aht aht don't do that"

"You don't have to do this" I tried to say but his hand muffled my words. He slid up my dress and started to grab my butt roughly.

"Please stop" I squeezed my eyes shut just trying to escape this.

I should've stayed home. I knew I shouldn't have come out.

"C'mon now don't act like you don't want this. You shouldn't have made an Onlyfans." I could hear him unzip his zipper. He grabbed my thigh and lifted my leg off the ground before forcing himself inside of me.

"Stop" I cried trying to push him off my. He put his forearm on my neck and started to apply pressure against my windpipe. I couldn't even scream if I wanted to.

"I always knew you had a tight lil pussy" He said to me. "You feel so good"

I closed my eyes and began to count to ten over and over again waiting for this to end. I could hear a knock at the door and my eyes opened.

"Paris you good?" I could hear Jacobi's voice say.

He pressed harder onto my neck so I couldn't say anything but it started to cut off my air. I started to claw at his arm as I gasped for air. Jacobi knocked on the door again and I tried my hardest to scream but nothing came out. "Hurry yo ass up it's a line out here"

The door opened slightly and he pushed the door closed. But in the matter of a second Jacobi and I made eye contact through the mirror.

"Aye what the fuck!" Jacobi screamed and forced the door opened. He grabbed the guy by his shirt and pulled him off of me. I immediately collapsed to the ground and tried desperately to catch my breath.

I could hear the commotion going on around me but I couldn't focus on the sound. I put my hand on my chest and began to breathe heavily. My airway started to get air but then the reality of what just happened began to set in.

There were these random girls in the bathroom talking to me but I didn't hear a word they were saying. My breathing began to increase and my chest started to get tighter.

"Deep breaths. It's gonna be okay" I could hear one of the girls says.

"Where are you friends?" Another girl asks me.

"Paris!" Michelle said aloud pushing past everyone in the bathroom. "Are you okay? What the fuck happened?"

"Hospital" I managed to say "Now."
