"YOU FUCKED MY BROTHER?" M.J asked loudly. She was at M.J's house. Ace had went to deal with some business.

"Hell yeah, you know what they say about them quiet ones. That's nigga had my leg in-"

"Bitch I don't want to hear about your sex with my brother." She gagged exaggeratedly.

"Yeah I was doing a lot of that." Teagan said referring to the gagging. M.J just shook her head.

"Y'all nasty, did you use protection?"

"...."

"I'm going to be a auntie?!." M.J jumped to conclusions. There was no way that Teagan was going to get pregnant. Right?

"Girl, I'm not pregnant. Chill." Teagan laughed.

"I'm going to pray that you are."

"Don't wish a demon child on me. But you remember the deal we made right?" When they were in college they made a deal that they had to have kids at the same time so their kids could be around the same age.

"You know what never mind, I'm not praying about it." M.J said shaking her head.

"Im not going to get pregnant so stop before you jinx me." Teagan said rolling her eyes.

"Soooo, I'm guessing you two aren't mad at each other any more right?"

"It's complicated, he still hurt my feeling. And what happened last night was just a one time thing." Teagan said shrugging.

"One time thing my ass. Y'all are going to have to talk about what happened sooner or later."

"Fuck him." Teagan said mean mugging M.J.

"Yeah you did a lot of that last night huh?" She said which made Teagan laugh.

"You okay so much."

"No you the one playing trying to give me details on what happened with you and my BROTHER!"

"You remember that time you hooked up with my cousin when we went to my home town? You told me all about that like John wasn't my cousin."

"Cousin yeah, not brother."

"Still family with your lil nasty self."

"Mhmm, so what are you going to do today."

"I have to work today then after that I'm going to chill at a park and read book."

"Are you trying to avoid Ace so you don't have to talk about it?"

"Noooo?" He said playing confused.

"You are such a bad liar, do you like Angel or Jessie?"

"Who are they?" Teagan asked she never heard of those people.

"Names for my niece, duh" Teagan gave her a blank face.

"You know what? I'm leaving." Teagan said grabbing her stuff laughing.

"Bye baby." M.J said hugging her.

**********

Teagan just got off work and went tried to in and out then she went home after she got her food.

She got to her house reaching for her gun just in case the same thing that happened yesterday happens today.

She unlocked the door and hung her keys and coat up. She saw Ace sitting on the couch. She may or may not have gotten him some food also. Okay she totally did.

"Teagan, let's talk."

If they were together she would have thought he was about to break up with her.

"What about ?" She asked setting their food on the table.

He rolled his eyes at her trying to play dumb. "About last night."

"It meant nothing to me." She said giving him the same treatment he gave her the other day.

"I deserve that." He said walking over to her.

"I'm sure you do." She said taking out her burger and fries and then going to add some salt.

"Teagan I'm for real."

"So am I." She laughed a little at him trying to be serious.

"I'm sorry about what I said to you. Things were happening with the business and I didn't want you caught up in the mix."

"Okay, we'll why are we talking right now?" She asked him as she took a bite of her burger and changed the channel on the tv.

"Because I was wrong for I said and I made a mistake."

"Mhmm." She said not paying him any mind as she watched tv. He grabbed the remote from her lap and cut off the tv.

"Teagan I know your trying to make a point. But can you stop now. I get it."

"No can do buddy. I wouldn't want to be a pushover." She said referring to what he called her. She ate some fries while texting on her phone.

The manager at her job was planning on throwing a Christmas party in two weeks and Teagan was going to be helping.

Ace grabbed her phone out of her hand. "You're Definitely not a pushover I said all those things to make you hate me."

"Well it worked."

"Did it really because you said you forgive me last night." He spoke cheekily. She thought of the perfect come back. Of course she was going to use his word against him.

"I was bored and desperate." She said raising her hand out for her phone back. He looked kind of hurt but he knew that, that was what he deserved.

"That was a good one."

"I know." She said trying not to laugh. Earlier that morning when they woke up he had told her what was going on in the business and why he had to distance himself from her but that's didn't mean she couldn't be a little petty.

"Can we be for real though?" He asked grabbing her hand. She sighed and looked into his eyes. The eyes that she had slowly fell in love with.

"Do you forgive me?" Of course she did. She said some messed up stuff too and she probably jutted his feelings just as much as he did her's.

"Yeah, but only if you'll forgive me and buy me food." She said grabbing another fry. She placed her food off her lap. "Hey what are you do-." He cut her off but giving her a big hug.

"I'll by you all the food you want muffin."

"Don't say no stupid shit like that to me no more." She told him pushing him from the hug to give him a serious look.

"Yes, ma'am." He joked but he was serious.

"Now that we got that settled. You want to watch tv with me and your food is on the table."

"You got me food?" He asked surprise since she were supposed to be mad at him.

"Duh." She said texting M.J and telling her what just happened to which she responded that she knew that they were going to make up.

"Thank you."

"Mhmm"

"Didn't i tell you to use your words?" He asked she blushed.

"Shut up." She said trujng the tv back on and eating the rest of her burger. She was never the type to forgive quickly but it was something about Ace that has her upside down.

"Oh and I'm in love with you too. You mean the world to mean and I don't ever want to lose you."

"Was that your way of asking me out?" She questioned quickly looking at him as he stuck a fry in his mouth.

"Yeah?"

"Well then duh, but you play with my feelings again and I'm going to shoot you."

"Did you just threaten a mafia leader?" He asked outing his hand over his heart faking to be surprise.

"I did and what you gonna do about it?" She asked laughing as she got a text back from M.J. When she loooked back up he was right in her face. She didn't know how he could just sneak places and not be noticed but he does it a lot.

"This." He said before still a kiss.
