Demony and Clay went on they street shifts so I was in the clear.
I walked downstairs and left out.
I got in the car and drove to the park.
I stepped out the car and seen rose pedals.
They were in a trail , leading somewhere.
I grabbed my purse and phone and followed the pedals.
They lead up to the hot tub entrance in the park.
A sign was on the door that said "Enter."
I walked in and seen TJ sitting in the hot tub with rose pedals all in the hot tub , champagne , a speaker , snacks , etc.
The jets were on , and bubbles in the hot tub.
"Comfortable"- H.E.R was playing on the speaker.

"Boyy .. you done got all romantic on a bitch." I said.
"Nigga I told you I changed .. i'm not the same nigga you used to know." TJ said.
"Mhm .. you look good or whatever." I said.
"I always look good mu'fucka." He said , laughing.
"Yea yea whatever." I said.

He grabbed my hand and helped me into the hot tub.
He scooted next to me and wrapped his arm around me.

"How you got away from ole boy?" He asked.
"That nigga do not run me. I'm grown as fuck." I said , sipping champagne.
"Ohh but earlier it was "Im engaged."" TJ said.
"I am .. I just- wanna do what I wanna do." I said.
"Well what is it that you wanna do?" He asked.
"You .. but i'm tryna change too. I wanna be loyal to him but I just can't. I don't know why but I just can't." I said.
"Tae just stop talkin." He said , grabbing my chin.
"Uht Uhn TJ noo .. you bout to try to reel me back in." I said , removing his hand from my chin.

He kissed me.
I kissed him back and climbed into his lap.
We started getting really sloppy.
I broke from this kiss and looked him in his eyes.

"TJ i'm not fucking you in no hot tub .." I said.
"You ain't gotta fuck me .. just kiss me like you bout to." He said , biting his lip.

I chuckled and kissed him.

The next morning .. 7:24 am.

I ended up staying at TJ's house for the night.
I woke up in his arms , laying on his chest.
I got out the bed a threw on one of TJ's button up shirts.
I put my shorts on and grabbed my purse and phone.
I left out.
I got in the car and drove home.
I walked in the house and Clay was sitting on the stairs looking at me.
He was smoking a blunt.

"Where the fuck you been?" He asked , blowing smoke out his mouth.
"I went out .." I said , putting my purse on the table.
"Where Tae?" I asked again.
"At Keons house .." I said , walking toward him.
"That's funny , cause I called Keon and he's outta the city visiting his boyfriend. So ima ask you one more time .. where the fuck did you go?" He said , ashing the blunt.
"Clay I-"

He stood up and yanked me by my throat.
I grabbed onto his wrist with both of my hands to try to loosen his grip.
But it didn't work.

"When you gon learn to stop fucking playing with me Tae?! You want me to fucking kill you?! What nigga you was out there sucking on?!" He said.
"Baby I didn't do nothing!" I said.
"Lie again!" He said , tightening the grip.
"What the fucking going on?!" Ki'moura said , coming down the stairs.
"Ya friend got me fucked up! Im bout to knock him the fuck out." He said.
"Clay calm down .. let him go and we could all sit down and talk about whatever happened." Ki'moura said.
"Get yo ass from by me." He said to me , throwing my neck.

He sat down on the couch and lit another blunt.
Ki'moura grabbed my hand and pulled me toward her.
She grabbed my face and examined my neck.
It was already turning colors.

"Clay look at his fucking neck!" Ki'moura said.
Clay sucked his teeth and rolled his eyes.
"Clay i'm sorry!" I said.
"You got on a whole other nigga shirt! Nigga I look dumb to you?! I put a $30,000 ring on your finger and you still fucking around on me!" He said.
"Okay Clay! I'm sorry! I didn't fuck him! All we did was kiss baby i'm sorry .." I pleaded.
"Whatever Tae." He said , ignoring me.
"Clay please .. don't leave me okay? I'm sorry. I'll- I'll stay in the house , I'll block him baby please?" I said.
"Nah .. you'n gotta do none of that. Just don't be surprised when a new baby pops up." He said as he got up , walked to the door , and slammed it.

I sat down on the couch and cried.
A new baby? This nigga already got 2 kids.
I have yet to see the other one tho.
There was a knock on the door.
I got up and opened it.
It was Matrix.
He had a baby with him.

"Who baby?" I asked

"Who baby?" I asked.
"Mines. Isn't he cute?" Matrix asked.
"Yea .. wait nigga why you here?" I said.
"I was looking for Clay but clearly he ain't here." He said.
"He's really cute like omg" I said.
"Here , you wanna hold him?" He asked
"Yeah." I said , holding my hands out for the baby.

The baby reached for me and I took him.
I held the baby and played with his fingers.
That's when Clays car pulled back up and he hopped out.
He walked up to me and Matrix.

"Matrix what the fuck you doing here?!" Clay snapped.
"Calvin you know what you owe me. Stop playing with me and pick up person." Matrix said.
"Listen mu'fucka .. I been waiting to put yo ass in the ground. Today really might really be your day." Clay said.
"Clay calm down .." I said.
"Tae stop fucking talking to me. You lucky ion punch you in yo shit right now." Clay said.
"Calvin that's no way to talk to your fiancé." Matrix said.
"Nigga you know what—"
