Chanel POV

"Yeah I know but..." I sighed and just looked down at my shoes

"What you thinking about" he says putting down the can and walking to me

"I don't know it's just like people always tell me that we should be a couple instead of just friends the way we act towards each other I guess" he looks at me for a second

"I know people at school tell me that all the time"he agreed

"I mean I thought we just acted like friends I never saw nothing wrong with it-" I said as he cut me off

"And you still shouldn't this is our friendship anyways not there's and if they gotta problem with it fuck em" he replied starting to get mad

I decided to call chanel the phone answered all I saw was the roof of her car and could hear her having a conversation

"Calm down its okay" she said

"How long have you been dating Lamelo for" I heard some guy I rolled my eyes thinking it was her new friend Alantae

"I think about seven nahh it's almost eight months" I responded

"Damnnnn so when you gon leave him then" he says confident

Oh he serious right now the only reason why I didn't hang up was because I wanted to hear her response

"I don't wanna break up with him anytime soon...more than likely he would break up with me than the other way around"she said as I got confused

"What do you mean"

"I mean that I love our relationship and wouldn't wanna ruin it sometimes I think ima bad girlfriend cuz you know how I used to be"

"Having a different Nigga every weekend" he laughed

"Nah more like every day" she giggled

"No but seriously though like I never felt this way about no boy ever and sometimes I keep guard up cuz I never got my heartbroken I was always the one to break up with someone and I don't want it to happen"

"Yeah I get it growing up wasn't even close to easy for us and now look at us a now you got trust issues and needa go see a therapist and I can't stop thinking about how life used to be"he said

"What do you mean"she asked

"Like we were so bad at a young age selling drugs going to jail all that like I miss it"

"I know it was hard for me when I came out here but as soon as get 18 I'm buying a house out there and going back as soon as I graduate"she said seriously

I think she was out of her mind cuz she's never even said this to me so I didn't know what she was talking about

"What about your brothers"

" if they wanna come with me they can but duke definitely can't know or else I wouldn't be able to pull it off"

" What about your boyfriend" he asked about me

"I mean I always try to be supportive when he does something hopefully he can do the same for me since this is something like important for me"

She said sounding nervous

"Yeah but you know he can't visit you are nothing" he said

"What do you mean" she asked confused

"I mean people are jealous of him I mean like they wonder what's so like different about him like why you've dated him so long to be honest. And I have to cuz I don't think you ever dated anyone this long"

"I mean I don't even really know it's just like something different about him he doesn't like me for my fame, he treats me right, doesn't know to much about my past, and he's hella fine. I could go on but I sound corny" she said embarrassed

"I mean you don't but it's just weird hearing you talk like that" I had enough of this. I hung up Chanel let him slide with anything.

It was so obvious that he liked chanel and she would never believe me if I said something but I really hoped he wasn't invited to her party cuz I don't even wanna meet him. Because I don't know how I would react seeing them together

Me and Alantae kept on working on our project. He kept on bringing up old memories of us. Everything was fine until he said

"You know I've been thinking about us going back to the Bay Area" I cut him off quickly

"Umm I don't think that's a good idea"

I said hesitant

"Before you think like that the plan isn't even bad we get a hotel for two nights stay three days just go to parties with your cousins and mine see our old friends like Chris,Aaliyah,Dylan,Mj-

"Wait did you just say Dylan"

"Yeah I mean he always talks about how he wants to see us I mean even though y'all used to talk he's still a good person"

He said confident

"Yeah I'm fine" I said calm

"Bruh don't let me find out you scared to go back home" he said upset

"I'm not it's just-

"You thought your better now I get it" he sighed and walked back to the car

"I would never at the end of the day I had to do a lot of terrible things just to get at this point in my life just because I don't want to go back home doesn't mean that" I explained

"Can we just go home"

"Okay" I sighed

10 minutes later

"I'm sorry it's just hard being out here I hate it and seeing you move on just made me upset"He said as we pulled in his driveway after a silent car ride

"I mean it's not like I moved on it's always a part of me but it's just dangerous I

mean we did hella people wrong and I don't wanna get hurt"

"I get it"Alantae stares at my lips biting his lips. I knew were it was going but I didn't stop it. He starts leaning in and kisses me for a second I forgot all about me having a boyfriend. Maybe it just because I missed feeling him so I let it happened until he tried to slip his tongue inside me. And I came to my senses

"Alantae I can't do this I'm sorry this just" I got so nervous I started stuttering

"No your good it's not your fault I'm sorry C"he says unlocking the door and going inside the house
