I opened my eyes looking at the unfamiliar surroundings. I felt something heavy on my arm, I turn to see Ashanti laying on my arm.

"No no no" I said said pushing her off my arm, I got up putting my clothes on "I done fucked up" I said to myself, looking at time it was ten in the morning.

"What's wrong babe?" She said With a smirk, removing the blanket, I got my things and walked out the house. Thank god my grandma's house was right across.

My brother was outside smoking a blunt, he looked at me shaking his head.

"Not trying to hear it right now" I said about to walk in the house and he grabbed my arm

"Sit your ass down" I rolled my eyes, sat down on the stairs and he stood in front of me

"You just be getting manipulated by the Ashanti girl, huh?"

"Man, it happened so fast. I wasn't thinking" he just looked at me like I had to heads

"You want me to be real with you Anthony?" He asked putting his blunt out, folding his hands

"Yeah man" I said, even though I really didn't want to

"You was thinking, it's really not hard to say 'No.' You have a great girlfriend, that loves you man, and you going to do her like this again?" I put my head down

"But last time it wasn't like I cheated" I said getting up

"But females came at her disrespecting her, saying you got them pregnant. What you do?" I didn't say nothing "Huh? Exactly nothing. Till she made your ass get a test, and they came back you wasn't the father. But it's about the fact you ain't do nothing about."

"Alright man, I understand"

"Do you really? You came here to spend with your family man. Not to go fuck with the bitch that stole from you and used you. But I guess you really don't learn" he laughed shaking his "I hope she leaves your ass, she deserves better than this" before I could say anything my mom walked out

"Anthony, where you been? Katherine been calling you" I looked at her confused cause I didn't get no calls, I pulled out my phone seeing it was on do not disturb "Her brother was got shot yesterday"

"He got what?" I said shocked

"She really needs you at times like this but you just done broke her even more" He said bumping into me and going inside the house.

Last week, I got released from the hospital. And just went I thought everything was going great, it was actually going bad. The guy that shot me, was mad over something that happen 2 years ago. People needs to learn how to let the hurt/envious go.

I grabbed my phone texting Von back, making sure he was good. He got shot on his chest, but thankfully it passed his heart.

"Get up, we got a lot of things to do today" Katherine said leaving my door wide open, and I just lay there "Now Sean!"

I hate when people did that shit.. like it is hard to close the door?

I got up, putting some clothes on. I already shower and ate breakfast. I just wanted to lay down until it was time to do something.

I walked downstairs seeing Delilah eating brownies.

"Where you get those?" I asked

"There's some in the oven" she pointed putting her phone down and payed attention to me "So how you feeling?"

"I'm feeling good, just want to get rid of this cast already" I said grabbing a knife to cut myself a piece

"Have you talked to Sydney?" I shakes my head grabbing a napkin placing my brownie on it

"I haven't, feel like I bring her problems" I said, going back to the fridge getting some milk and pouring some on a cup. She have texted me, making sure I was good

"Really?" She said giving me a look "You should check up on her, she was there Sean. That probably traumatized her"

"Alright man" I said placing the milk back in the fridge and started eating my 'snack'

"I'm for real Sean, she probably needs you right now as much as you needs her" she got up, throwing out her napkin away

"I know" I just said nodding my head

"I swear you don't deserve her" I just looked at her, and she just shrug walking out the kitchen going upstairs.

You don't deserve her , I kept repeating in my head until Katherine walked in the kitchen grabbing her water bottle.

"What you thinking about?" She asked reading some mails

"Nothing" I said putting my cup in the dish and throwing my napkin away. I washed my hands

"Well, let's go" she said grabbing her keys, walking out and I followed her

"Where we going?" I asked once we got in the car

"We going to your school talk to the principal, then I have a photoshoot and yes you're tagging along" she said looking at me, starting the car "Then we have to pick up Hennessy prom dress from the boutique, you going to prom?"

"Definitely not"

"Why not?" She looked at me for a split second pulling out the driveway

"Cause I don't like the formal stuff"

"You should take Sydney to prom"

"I'll think about it" she nodded making her way to the school. Prom was in a few days, and graduation in couple of weeks. I was supposed to go back to school after prom, I didn't like the school specially the people in it. But I was just worried about my education and diploma.

Soon make a name for myself.
