^^^Your face after you read this chapter....^^^

So lemme clear this up before you start reading.... Yes August knew it was a set up.... he knew who Bryson was because when Delilah decided to commit suicide he tried to go see her and Bryson was there. He just thought Alijah was smarter than the average person or whatever. Basically he wanted to see if Alijah was really what she said she was but it's a secret luring and you'll find out in this chapter....

August and Alijah had a stare off as they both looked at each other with hatred in their eyes with both of them thinking why did it come to this.

August didn't think twice before grabbing Alijah by her throat and slamming her against the wall.

"You fucking cheated on me with dat' motherfucker Alijah I should fucking kill you!" August said.

"A..Aug...August please let me go I promise you I'm sorry I...I..didn't mean it." Alijah said while trying to get August to loosen his grip.

Jay stood back watching everything play out. He wasn't about to intervene with anything.

August shook his head trying not to cry while looking in his first love eyes.

He loosened his grip around her neck making her drop to the floor watching her try to get her breath back.

August stood back. "You really did me wrong Alijah." August said.

Alijah looked up at August with tears flowing down her face. "I'm sorry August."

"Nah you ain't 'sawry because if you was you wouldn't have did what you did. You should've left me alone if I wasn't what you wanted."

"August I'm sorry I'm telling the truth the whole truth. I did want a relationship with you what happened with Bryson was a mistake. I was stupid enough to make that mistake." Alijah said while crying.

August just shook his head. He couldn't even look at her anymore. The girl he thought he wanted and was in love with wasn't her.

"Alijah you really changed. I love you still but we done with each other."

Alijah nodded her head understanding. "Okay." She said before running upstairs with Laila behimd her.

Jay walked up to August. "You good bro?"

"Nah man I'm not. I really did love your sister." August said. "She was everything to me."

"Well it's usually the dude cheating on the girl but I mean this is 2018 things have changed." Jay said trying to make August laugh but it didn't work.

"I gotta go man I'll talk to y'all later." August said walking out of the house.

Everything went downhill after that.....

4 weeks later

Alijah laid in her bed listening to the rain pour down. It's like everything became dark and gloomy for her especially after she found out she was pregnant.

The only people that knew were her parents and brother. Her parents decided to send her off to go live with her grandma in Miami. So in another week or so she'll be leaving. Another thing is she doesn't know if it's August's or Bryson's baby. She really didn't care though well she cared, she just didn't worry about it.

Alijah laid her hand upon her flat firm stomach and close her eyes, before she knew it she was crying.

There was a knock at her door.

"Come in." She said before sitting up in the bed seeing her mother walk in.

"Hey your dad withdrew you from school today. He said you might need to leave this weekend that way you can graduate on time." Her mother said.

"Okay." Alijah said.

"It'll be okay baby girl at least you can come back because UCLA accepted you. I won't have no problem keeping my grandson or granddaughter."

Alijah nodded her head. "Yeah. Don't tell nobody I'm leaving please mama. Make sure Jay doesn't say anything either about both situations."

"I won't babygirl and he won't either. I just wanted you to know we doing this for you and I know you doing this for you and we'll be with you every step of the way. Just know we love you."

"I know but mama I miss him so much." Alijah said. "I think this is his baby. I have a feeling this is his baby."

"It might be babygirl, but for now let's just drop that situation and start packing okay."

"Alright." Alijah frowned getting up while her mother got her suitcases out.

Alijah really didn't want to leave, but she needed to because she was already known at school for doing August dirty then on top of that she's pregnant and she knew if she finished school there it'll be hell.

Laila was supposed to have her baby in another week or so, but Alijah wouldn't be there and when somebody asks why it would be because her grandmother is sick and she wanted to move to Florida to help her.

"Pack whatever you want to pack. We'll send you some money every week until you graduate in June. So you'll have clothes and personal things too." Her mother said.

"I love you mama." Alijah said before crying. It was probably was the hormones but she felt like she needed to cry.

Alijah knew everything was her fault. She broke August and she didn't mean too. She really loved him. Now she'll just have to see what the future holds. At least she had her family and that's all that mattered at the moment.

Uncolored Rose....

Ming sat on the couch watching The Happening with Yasir. Her parents were out of town and he was going to spend the night with her.

"How in the hell? Why everybody dying?" Yasir asked.

"Because it's something going on with the plants and when wind comes it blows it off and people just start killing themselves. Pay attention and stop trying to feel on me then you'll get the movie." Ming said looking up at Yasir smiling.

"Man nah fuck the movie." Yasir said.

"Baby I said we don't have to rush if you're not ready then don't act like it. I mean you should've been saying that to me, because never mind." Ming said.

"It's okay. Niggas shouldn't be scared to lose there virginity because we don't experience the pain like y'all do, but we do have the fear of nutting too fast and making y'all mad." Yasir said. "Am I wrong?"

Ming shook her head. "No you're not."

"So I was thinking we could do it tonight. I'm ready if you ready." Yasir said.

Ming looked at him for a couple of seconds.

"Let's go." Ming said grabbing his hand and going upstairs.

Ming laid back on the bed as Yasir climbed on top of her. They started kissing and feeling on each other. Whispering sweet nothings in each other's ear.

When that time came though....

"Mmmm Yasir a condom baby do you have condom?" Ming asked.

"Fuck they in my car I'll go get them." He said getting up.

"I got some in dresser well look on top." Ming said.

Yasir got up and walked over to her dresser looking for them. When he did that a card fell on the floor causing him to pick it up reading it.

"Ming what the fuck?" Yasir said holding the card up while Ming sat up in her bed.

"What's that?" She asked.

"A card from Keith you obviously got it ok Valentine's day." He said. "You still fucking with him?"

"No I'm not I promise I'm not baby trust me please." Ming said.

"I don't know if I can." Yasir said making Ming frown.

"What do you mean you don't if you can? What kind of bullshit is this Yasir? I would never cheat on you I love you. That nigga is crazy as hell." Ming said getting up and going over to Yasir. "Look...." She took the card out of Yasir's hand and ripped it up. "I love you Yasir. You showed me what that was. We took our time with each other and baby I don't want to lose you."

"I love you too baby." Yasir said before kissing her.

The truth was Keith has been stalking Ming ever since that thing happened on Valentine's Day and he hasn't stopped even with Ming telling her parents what happened between them, even though they were disappointed in her they got a restraining order agaisnt Keith and he still hasn't stopped. I think it's true when they say dick is addictive and pussy is attractive because niggas and bitches are crazy these days.

Ming and Yasir ended up having sex. They both laid there thinking about what just happened especially Yasir.

"Damn man I feel like a fucking man." Yasir said.

Ming laughed. "I bet you do." She said.

"Nah for real baby I do and I love you so much an-

"And what Yasir?"

Yasir was froze and Ming turned over to see what he was looking at.

"What the fuck?!" Ming yelled seeing Keith holding a gun pointing at both of them.

"Ming baby get out of the bed and come here." Keith said slowly.

"No Keith leave us alone before I call the police."

"Tsk...tsk...tsk Ion think that'll happen baby. GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE BED NOW BEFORE I SHOOT BOTH OF Y'ALL!" Keith yelled making Ming get out of the bed quickly.

Ming silently prayed in her head, because all of this was happening so fast.

"Aye man calm down please just think about what you doing." Yasir said slowly getting out of the bed.

"If you take two more steps I'll kill her and you." Keith said. "Was his dick better then mine Ming huh?"

"No no it wasn't." Ming cried.

Yasir looked at Ming knowing she was doing what she had to do or somebody was gonne end up dead.

"Have you sucked his dick yet?"

"No Keith I haven't." Ming said.

Keith pushed Ming to ground. "Since you haven't suck mine." He said.

"Please Keith just please... We ended things a long time ago-

Keith shot the gun making Yasir and Ming both jump, but Ming started crying harder.

"Suck my fucking dick bitch in front of him now!" Keith said.

Ming slowly crawled over to Keith and pulled his pants down along with his boxers making his mandhood spring out. She slowly grabbed with hands and slowly eased it in her mouth doing as told.

Yasir turned his head. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to save his girl, but then again he didn't want to die.

"Watch motherfucker before I kill you." Keith said making Yasir turn back around.

Keith laid the gun down on the floor before grabbing Ming's head rubbing his hands through her hair.

Yasir noticed his eyes were closed. Ming had a knife and a gun in her nightstand drawer he remembered her telling him just incase anybody tried anything with her or if somebody tried to rob them.

He slowly opened the drawer grabbing the gun.

"Ming stop." Yasir said holding the gun up pointing at Keith.

Keith laughed. "Lil nigga you don't even know what to do with that." Keith said picking up his gun pushing Ming to side.

Ming wiped her mouth off crying.

Keith pulled his pants up and walked around the room to Yasir holding his gun up to Yasir's head.

"Nigga I should kill you. I watched you fuck my girl-

"I'm not your girl." Ming said.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Keith said.

Ming felt her whole soul leave her body as she watched Yasir shoot Keith in his face three times.

Yasir dropped the gun shaking he fell to the ground watching Keith's breath leave his body.

Ming quickly got up rushing over to him.

"Baby I want you to listen to me. I pretty sure the neighbors heard those gunshots. So quickly get dressed now and leave I got this. I gotta make it look like self defense and that he tried to rape me. Go now!"

"No baby I can't-

"Yasir go!" Ming yelled.

Yasir got up slipping his clothes back on and Ming grabbed the gun putting her fingerprints on it.

"Baby whatever happens I love you." Yasir said.

"I love you too." Ming said giving Yasir a kiss. "Go out the back." She said watching him leave.

Ming looked at Keith's body with hate. "I'm glad you're dead you bitch." She said.

Fifteen minutes later you could hear the sirens. Ming started crying and after that everything escalated.
