Hakeem's POV

I was in the studio working with this girl group called "Trinity."

"Add a little bass to the snare." I told Mack the engineer.

"Okay ladies we are gonna do the hook one last time and then we're done for the day."

I was sitting back as Mack worked his magic when I notice this Rich character enter the studio.

"Was sup Mack." "Yo that record is hot." I was thinking about jumpin on..." Rich stopped mid-sentence once his notice my presence.

"Um Mr. Lyon." "How are you doing today sir?" Rich replied.

"Mr. Lyon huh." I chuckled.

"So you're the clown that's been dating my daughter?"

"Actually Bella dumped me." Rich replied looking down.

"And you're trying to squeeze your way back in?" I chuckled again.

"No disrespect Mr. Lyon, but I love Bella." "She's everything to me." Replied Rich.

"Listen young one." "My daughter is a very special girl, and girls at that age are very fragile." "Bella has a huge heart, she always wanna see the good in people." "And as her father, I won't sit back and allow someone to take advantage of that." I replied.

"Mr. Lyon, I'm sure you saw the pictures, and I hate that I put Bella through that." "I'm really am, truly sorry." Replied Rich.

"What's your government name young one?" I asked.

"It's Jared."

"Okay Jared." "You're young, and you have a unlimited amount of income." "Probably could pull almost any girl you want because of your status." "So why my daughter?" I questioned.

"Like I told you before Mr. Lyon, I really love her and Bella gets me." "I will do any and everything in my power to gain her trust back." Replied Jared.

"Mhmm yeah we will see about that." "Embarrass my daughter again, and I'll end your career." "And that's a promise."

"Okay ladies we are finish for today." I replied giving them my attention.

"Mack add the final touches to it and send it to me once you're done." I replied.

"Sure thing boss." Replied Mack.

Rich POV

Mack was finishing up with Trinity and I finally had the studio. I had to make it up to Bella.

"Yo Mack you ready for me." I asked.

"Yeah just waiting on you." Replied Mack.

Normally I don't sing but I decided to show off my vocals. I had been writing lyrics to this song. I got in the booth.

I can' t make you understand
Cuz girl I don't understand
Why I am such a fool
Shoulda been a much better man
Cuz you went and you reached out your hand when you saw I was bruised
When you came I was lost
I was down
My heart was broken I was on the ground
You protected my heart from the rain
But I didn' t give you the same
I'm so sorry

I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
Im sorry for the shit that I put you through
Im sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us
I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
I'm sorry for the shit that I put you through
I'm sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us

Can we begin again?
Maybe even be friends again

Cuz I want so much more
Baby let's take it slow or at least till your heart is sure
Cuz I know it's still sore
Girl I promise that this time around, I'll be there for you won't let you down
No more hurt, no more trouble, no pain
I won't break your heart again
Girl I'm so sorry

I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
I'm sorry for the shit that I put you through
I'm sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us
I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
I'm sorry for the shit that I put you through
I'm sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us

Don't act like you aint never built up a wall
After you've been hurt and then the next person comes along
You aint so quick to go believing in love cuz you don't wanna hurt again
And I know that you love me
And I know I can try to be sure you can trust me
Won't be the same
If you give me another chance
To show you that I love you
And im sorry

I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
I'm sorry for the shit that I put you through
I'm sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us
I'm sorry for not giving my heart to you
I'm sorry for the shit that I put you through
I'm sorry for my issues on trust
Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us
I'm sorry

Only thinkin bout myself instead of thinkin bout this thing called us
Come back to me, to this thing called us.

I really poured my heart out on this one. I know a song won't fix things between Bella and I but at least it's a start.
