Mariah POV:

I'm juss na wakin' up. When I wake up, I notice Aug arm wrapped around me from behind and our hands intertwined. Last night...we made love. Like...real love. Even he dropped a tear. It was so passionate. Ion know if it was because of tha weddin'. Or whateva else it coulda been. But...he showed me how much he loves me. I look at tha time and I see it's 9:45. I move ta get up and Aug pulls me back

August: "Where you goin'?"

Me: "Well. I was goin' ta tha bathroom. Plus I gotta go home"

August: "Yeen ain't gotta go home"

Me: "I kinda have ta go. Dats where my clothes and bathroom at"

August: "Toothbrushes and mouthwash in my suitcase. Shower hea'. Throw on a pair of my briefs and my hoodie. Boom! Ya done"

I slowly look at him and he smiles. He puckers his lips and I cover his mouth

Me: "Eww no. We gotta brush our teeth first, Mr. Alsina"

He starts laughin' and moves my hand

August: "If you really love me, then you would kiss me regardless of mornin' breath or not, Ms. Jones"

Me: "You so sensitive in tha mornin' you know dat, right?"

August: "I want my kiss"

He puckers his lips again and I start chucklin'. I peck his lips and he kisses back

August: "Thank you"

Me: "Mmhmm. And I guess I'll chill wit chu fa tha day" I said rubbin' his goatee

August: "Thank. You" He said in between kisses

I kiss back and look at my hands

Me: "Yo welcome"

Afta brushin' our teeth and all dat extra shit, we put on a robe then get back in tha bed. I snuggle up ta him and he wraps his arms around me. Then I look at him

Me: "Aug-"

August: "I know where you goin' wit dis"

He looks at me

August: "I want our relationship ta work. I want chu back in every...way, shape, form you can think of. Me, outta all people, should know how you feel and what chu been through. I've fucked up. Okay. I fucked up big time. I lost tha best thang dat I had. And dats you"

Me: "Is gettin' back in a relationship really a smart thang ta do? All we gonna do is end up where we at na..."

He raised his eyebrow

Me: "Think about it. We were happy. Shit got fucked up. Dat was all me. Got back ta'getha. Broke up again. Got back ta'getha. Shit went left. Boom. Broke up again. It repeats. Ta top it off. We were juss arguin' fa months befoe ha weddin'. We had our night na we happy again. I can't tell you how many times we broke up cuz it's juss been dat many times"

I look back at my hand

Me: "We'ont need ta go through dat again"

August: "You love me, right?"
