Alexa's View

"What happened to that girl you went on a date with?" Zendaya asks.

Ooh, ooh

"Oh, yeah. You said there was a second date." Maude says.

Ring, ring, ring, ring

"She canceled because dad got hit by a bus when he was crossing the street. All I know is that he got out of the hospital 2 weeks ago." I say.

You don't hit my line no more, oh, oh

"Damn." Zendaya says.

"Maybe she just forgot to call you back. She's more than likely taking care of her dad." Maude says.

You don't make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"Let me ask you this. Are you still interested in her?" Zendaya says.

"Yeah." I say.

I can't keep this on the low

I want you to make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"So call her." Maude says.

Should I call first? I can't decide

"I like my dignity, I can not and will not beg." I say.

I want to, but a bitch got pride

"Imagine if doesn't even like me anymore. That's embarrassing." I say.

The switchin' up shit is what I can't fuck with

"Give me her number I'll call her." Zendaya says handing her phone to me.

I put Y/n's number in Zendaya's phone and she calls her.

The phone goes straight to voicemail and she hangs up.

I'm feelin' you but you hard to get in touch with

And you ain't hit me up in a while

"She always has it on setting that makes you call twice to get through." I say.

Zendaya calls and someone answers on the second ring.

"Hello." Y/n says.

Zendaya gets up and quickly hands her phone to me.

"Hello? Y/n asks.

"Hey." I say.

"This is Alexa, I'm calling from a friend's phone." I say.

"Oh, I remember you." Y/n says.

"So why didn't you call?" I ask.

Actin' like you don't know what number to dial

"Well, you said you would hit me up when you had time. I figured you were ghosting me and threw in the towel." Y/n says.

You quit, then that's it, I'ma throw in the towel

"Didn't want to bother you if you weren't interested." Y/n says.

'Cause a only gon' do what you allow

"We can hang out this weekend if you're free." Y/n says.

"Yeah, I'll text you." I say.

"Alright, bye." Y/n says.

"Bye." I say before hanging up.

"And to think you weren't gonna call." Maude says.

"I have lost all my dignity, but at what cost?" I ask.

Maude laughs and I smile.

Time Skip

I knock on the door and Tommy opens it.

"I need to have a long talk with Y/n." I say.

Tommy laughs and let's me in.

"She's upstairs." Tommy says.

I go upstairs and open Y/n's room door.

"Hey." Y/n says weakly.

Y/n fell down the stairs and broke a few bones. Now she's wearing a neck brace and can't sit up.

"Why haven't you texted me?" I ask.

"I broke my thumb." Y/n says.

"And? You have a nose." I say.

Learn to text with your nose if your thumb broke

Y/n laughs and I smile.

"Does this mean you forgive me?" Y/n asks.

I don't care if we get into it and I stall on your ass

Better still wake up to missed calls from your ass

You don't hit my line no more, oh, oh

You don't make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"All I know is that you should call more." I say.

I can't keep this on the low

I want you to make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"I guess I'll forgive you." I say.

Y/n smiles and I kiss her.

Time Skip

"How's things going with Y/n?" Maude asks.

"She told me not to call her because she'll be in meetings all day." I say.

Nah, now you gon' have to call me (Call me)

"Kinda crazy because my ex texted me today." I say.

'Cause I'm lookin' at these messages, they on me (Yeah)

Actin' like they ain't that want me

"You're leaving Y/n for your ex?" Maude asks.

"I never said that. I'm just saying that I don't have to be single." I say.

Let another in your spot, and you gon' be hot, coffee

You gon' be sick to your, stomach

"I told her to call me whenever she finishes." I say.

Hit me when you free, 1-800

It's emergency, call me 911

My phone rings and I answer it.

The ring on my phone,

"I'm done for the day. Garrett had a family emergency and canceled the other meetings." Y/n says.

"Do you want to hang out or something? Maybe watch some movies." Y/n says.

"Yeah, that sounds good. I'll be there in like 20 minutes." I say.

"Sounds good." Y/n says.

I smile and hang up.

"Have fun." Maude says as I get up.

30 minutes later...

"Here." Y/n says handing me a ring.

"You said you wanted a ring on your finger so I got you one. Think of it as an anniversary ring." Y/n says.

ring on my finger (Brrr)

"So you're not proposing?" I ask.

You actin' like you ain't tryna do either (Yeah)

"Why do you sound like Maddy?" Y/n asks.

"Because I am Maddy." I say.

Once a good girl, watch me turn diva

"You're Alexa." Y/n says.

"Oh yeah..." I say.

Y/n laughs and I smile.

"I love you." I say.

Here goes my heart, I put it on speaker (Oh)

"I live you too." Y/n says.

I kiss her and she smiles.

Time Skip; Y/n's View

"I thought you were hanging out with Alexa." Tommy says.

"She canceled because she has to film the season 3 finale." I say.

You don't hit my line no more, oh, oh

You don't make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"You're kinda perfect for each other. You're both dedicated to your jobs and don't have time for each other." Tommy says.

I can't keep this on the low

I want you to make it ring, ring, ring, ring

"Just two independent women madly in love with each other." Tommy says.

"That last part is definitely true." I say.

Maddy's View

"You had to ditch Y/n?" Zendaya asks.

You used to be on my line

"Yeah." I say.

On my tick all the time, yeah

"She's okay with it though. She always reassures me that we can hang out later." I say.

Love it when you make me feel

Like you don't mind when I ain't got time for you

"You should find you a man like that." I say looking at Sydney.

"Arrogant much?" Zendaya asks.

And no it don't go to my head,

"Only in bed." I say.

I'm only arrogant in bed

Sydney chokes on her drink and we laugh.

Time Skip

"They're so toxic, I can't." I say.

Y/n laughs and I look at her.

"What?" I ask.

"I've never met someone who screams at the TV more than me." Y/n says.

I just love to know you wanna spend time with me instead

Now you all caught up, yeah

"I love this." Y/n says.

Ready for the next step,

"You love this?" I ask.

Said I just miss you, I just miss us, baby

"I love you." I say.

All I know is

"That's cool." Y/n says.

You don't hit my line no more, oh, oh

I hit her and she laughs.

You don't make it ring, ring, ring, ring (You don't make it ring, baby)

"I love you too." Y/n says.

I can't keep this on the low (Yeah, yeah, oh)

I smile and she kisses me.

I want you to make it ring, ring, ring, ring
