When we arrive in Atl it's already 11:00 in the afternoon. We all go get our luggage then start to make our way to our Uber. We drop the boys off first then go to our new house.

The house was a lot bigger which I'm not sure why we need such a big house since it's just me and mom.I walk in and the first thing I see is the kitchen and living room.

(

"Well what do you think" mom asks walking in after me. "It's really nice" I reply giving her a smile. "I'm gonna go to the store to get some stuff, do you want to come" she asks. "Uhm nah I think I'm gonna go surprise Javon if that's alright". "Yeah of course" she says.

I grab my charger out of my bag and start walking to Javons. We only live like 5 houses away from each other. I get to the front of the house and see Daleo and Jaden outside. "ASTRIDE" Daleo screams spotting me first then starts running towards me.

"Hey Daleo" I say laughing and giving him a hug. "Uhm what about me" Jaden says, "I'm sorry who are you" I ask still laughing. "You think your so funny" he says squinting his eyes.

"Yeah I do" I say giving him a hug. "What are you doing here anyway" Jaden asks. "I moved here" I say. "Are you serious" he says sounding excited. "No, not at all...what tf do you think". "Shut the fuck up, this means we can spend are birthdays together" he says.

"I'm gonna go tell Javon your here" Daleo says "no let me surprise him" I say stopping him from running off. "Ok we'll come on so you can surprise him" he says grabbing my arm and pulling me to the door. "Ok let go" I say laughing.

I open the door and we all walk in "Is he in his room" I ask. "I think" Jaden says ten we all start walking up stairs into his room. He was in there but he wasn't alone Kylee was in there with him and they were cuddling. My heart felt like it dropped to my stomach.

Javon turns his head toward the door. "Astride-" is all I hear him say before I walk away. Once I get to the door I bump into Dj "Ash are you ok" he says sounding concerned. "Yeah" I say whipping away my tears and smiling.

"What's wrong" he asks bringing me into a hug. "Ask your son" I say starting to cry harder. "Ash I'm so sorry" Javon says "are you sorry you did it or are you sorry you got caught"I reply breaking the hug between Dj. He hesitated for a moment then says "you know I would never hurt you". I shake my head then walk around Dj and out the door.

I walk into my house and mom wasn't home yet so I just walked around for a bit until I get to the master bathroom and just sit in the shower. I grab my phone out of my back pocket and look at the Lock Screen of me and Javon. It's a picture of us the day he asked me out.

(

Maybe I am overthinking things, maybe he isn't in the wrong, maybe I'm overacting . Or maybe I'm just trying to convince myself he loves me as much as I love him.

I put my phone down and then Javon starts to call me. I hesitate at first but then decline, I'm not ready to talk to him yet.

I get up from floor and power off my phone then walk to the kitchen. To find my mom putting up groceries. "Hey I didn't know- what's wrong baby" she says walking over to me. I start silently crying and the only thing I'm able to say is "Javon".
