"Your phone has been ringing all day." Zendaya says.

"I know, I make a mistake." I say.

"What?" Zendaya asks.

"I had a hookup." I say.

"Everyone has had hookups. Not me. I don't get down like that. That's just nasty. But it's cool if you wanna get down like that." Zendaya says.

"It wasn't a one night stand. It's been multiple times on different days. I thought it was just harmless but they're in love with me. I don't know what to do." I say.

I'm findin' ways to articulate the feelin' I'm goin' through

I just can't say I don't love you (Yeah)

'Cause I love you, yeah

It's hard for me to communicate the thoughts that I hold

But tonight, I'm gon' let you know

Let me tell the truth

Baby, let me tell the truth, yeah

"She can't seem to get the hint." I say.

"Sit down and have a talk with them." Zendaya says.

"I'll try." I say.

Time Skip; Y/n's View

I open the door and Alexa walks in.

"We need to talk." Alexa says sitting in the couch.

"Okay." I say sitting beside her.

"Please don't do that." Alexa says.

"Do what?" I ask.

"You're undressing me with your eyes." Alexa says.

"How'd you know that?" I ask.

"Because I know you." Alexa says.

You know what I'm thinkin', see it in your eyes

"And that's why we're perfect for each other." I say.

"No, no we're aren't." She says.

"Don't make this hard." She says.

"It's hard because you want me." I say.

You hate that you want me, hate it when you cry

"You got a taste of not being lonely and now you're addicted." I say.

You're scared to be lonely, 'specially in the night

I'm scared that I'll miss you, happens every time

"I'm not looking for love!" She says.

I don't want this feelin', I can't afford love

"We can't even be together. I'm straight!" She says.

I try to find a reason to pull us apart

"Oh, so last night didn't happen?" I ask.

"You're pretty, smart, loving — why wouldn't I want you?" I ask.

It ain't workin' 'cause you're perfect

"It's never gonna happen." Alexa says.

"That's not gonna change anything, I still want you." I say.

And I know that you're worth it

I can't walk away, oh

"Why do you have to make everything so complicated?" Alexa asks.

Even though we're goin' through it

And it makes you feel alone

"I'n not making it complicated. This is Uno, not Chess. I'm in love with you, it's that simple." I say.

"You're not in love with me. You're just being clingy." Alexa says.

"I don't think willing to die for someone is clingy." I say.

Just know that I would die for you

Baby, I would die for you, yeah

"Nothing you say is gonna change that." I say.

The distance and the time between us

It'll never change my mind 'cause

Baby, I would die for you

"You'd die for me?" She asks.

"That's what I just said, yeah." I say.

Baby, I would die for you, yeah (Say)

"Oh." She says.

I smirk and she smiles. She kisses me and I smile.

Time Skip

I hear mumbling and I open my eyes.

"I can't fucking believe this." Alexa mumbles.

"What's wrong with you?" I ask.

"This didn't go as planned. I wasn't supposed to have sex with you." Alexa says.

"Just relax, it's not that serious." I say.

"You tricked me. You told me what I wanted I here so you could get what you want." Alexa says.

I'm findin' ways to manipulate the feelin' you're goin' through

"Me? Why are you blaming me? I'm not controlling you." I say.

But, baby girl, I'm not blamin' you

Just don't blame me, too, yeah

"You should've just left me alone." Alexa says.

"Now, why would I do that? We're perfect for each other. You just can't admit it." I say.

'Cause I can't take this pain forever

And you won't find no one that's better

'Cause I'm right for you, babe

I think I'm right for you, babe

"You knew this I wanted yet you sitll decided to sleep with me. Now you're complaining because "I didn't tell you I wanted more." It's doesn't even make sense." I say.

You know what I'm thinkin', see it in your eyes

You hate that you want me, hate it when you cry

"And if you think that I won't love you at the end of the day, I still will." I say.

It ain't workin' 'cause you're perfect

And I know that you're worth it

I can't walk away, oh

"I would die for you, I would lie for you, and I would fucking kill for you." I say.

I would die for you, I would lie for you

Keep it real with you, I would kill for you, my baby

"Just like Ace..." Alexa mumbles.

I'm just sayin', yeah

I would die for you, I would lie for you

Keep it real with you, I would kill for you, my baby

Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na

"What's wrong with being in a relationship?" I ask.

Even though we're goin' through it

"I'm not out. I've never acted on my sexuality expect for with you." Alexa stays.

And it makes you feel alone

"No one has ever questioned it. Never wanted to give them a reason to." Alexa says.

Just know that I would die for you

"You don't have to be out." I say.

Baby, I would die for you, yeah

"I was in the industry for 20 years before I came out." I say.

The distance and the time between us

"You'd be okay with that?" She asks.

It'll never change my mind 'cause

"Yeah." I say.

Baby, I would die for you

She smiles and hugs me.

Baby, I would die for you, yeah

"I love you." She says.

(Oh, babe)

"I love you too." I say.

(Die for you)
