AUGUST P.O.V.

I held onto the railing while I slowly inched down the stairs. "Mr.Alsina, goodmorning." I slowly stepped down the last stepped and nodded. "Morning Brutus, Simone left for work?" He nodded. "Yes, she left about a hour ago, with Aliyah."

I nodded. "Oh ight...cool." I let go of the railing as I slowly limped into the kitchen. "Speaking of Ms.Simone." He said following me into the kitchen. "Can I talk to you about something?" I nodded. "Yeah, wassup?" I tried to open up the fridge, but he stopped me. "You can have a seat, Ms.Simone left you your breakfast in the microwave."

I nodded and took a seat at the table. He opened up the microwave and bot my plate out, sitting it before me. "Thanks, what you had to talk to me about?" I grabbed my fork and began to eat.

"I've only been gone for a few months, and it seems like everything has changed, especially between you and Ms.Simone, she told me you two were seperated." I sighed and nodded. "Yeah, we are."

"Care to fill me in?" He got out a glass and poured me some orange juice. "Alot of shit has happened man, I fucked up, she fucked up, and we argue all the damn time instead of talking, so that's why were here now." He nodded.

"And are you doing anything to fix it?" I shook my head. "I mean, she made attempts and I fucked it up, now I was trying to make a attempt, now she ain't sure if she wants to fix it." He sighed and shook his head.

"Well that's exactly what she told me yesterday." "Yeah." I mumbled. "But I think I can help." I looked up from my plate with a brow raised. "How?" He chuckled. "Just make sure Simone gets home by six." I nodded. "Ight."

SIMONE P.O.V.

"Did you use them condoms I gave you?" I slightly rolled my eyes at Ellis. "No, I told you we weren't gunna need them." "Mhmm." He said lowly. "But you guess are good right? You haven't argued or anything?" I shook my head no. "We don't really say much to each other. We usually keep conversation to a minimum, it's still really awkward for us."

"I bet it is." Ellis mumbled. "Well atleast you guys aren't arguing, that's good." I nodded. "I guess so." Just then, my phone vibrated in my back pocket. I pulled it out and quickly opened it once I seen August text me.

AUGUST(10:30am)-Be home by 6.

I frowned and closed the message. "Was that yo baby daddy?" I nodded. "Yeah....he wants me to be home by six tonight." Kerri lifted a brow. "Why?" I shrugged. "Ooooh, this sounds like a set up." I shook my head. "No, I don't think so, Brutus probably has to go somewhere, so he needs me to be home with him."

"Uh huh, sure."

HOURS LATER-AUGUST P.O.V.

I took my seat a the nicely decorated table and did my best to scoot myself in. "What time is it?" I asked Brutus. He glanced up at the microwave, as he poured two glasses of champagne. "5:55." I nodded. "Ight cool, you think this gon work?" He chuckled as he walked over to the table, sitting down the glasses.

"Im not sure, but I got my fingers crossed. "I nodded. "You ain't the only one." I watched him as he sat down the forks and our platters of food. "Now remember, there's no arguing tonight, just talk...calmly." I nodded. "I know, im just hoping Simone can do the same thing.

SIMONE P.O.V.

I pulled into the drivewat at exactly 5:58. I didn't know why August needed me at home by 6, but whatever it was, I didn't want to be late for it. Especially if he needed something involving his injury.

I hopped out of the car and hit the locks. I shuffled through my key ring until I got to my house key. I opened up the front door and was automatically hit with the smell of food." I took my heels off at the door and slowly walked into the living room where I heard Brutus and August talking.

"What's going on in here?" I stepped inside the living room and looked Brutus and August. "You and Mr.Alsina are going to have dinner." He said motioning to the table infront of me. I looked over at August, who was already sitting down at the table, waiting on me.

"Dinner? And who's idea was this?" Brutus ignored my question and pulled out my chair for me. "Take a seat." I sighed and glanced over at the clock. I had two hours before Sean would be here to pick me up tonight. I slowly sat down in the chair, skeptical about all of this.

"Im taking Aliyah to the park so I won't be back for awhile." I sighed. "Will you be back in two hours? I have somewhere to go." He nodded. He quickly gave August dap before leaving out of the house.

"....You know, you shouldn't be sitting her at the table, you need to be elevating your leg." He sighed and slowly scooted his chair in. "Im fine ma, really." I sat back in my seat, silent.

August reached across the table and pulled the cover off of my plate. I looked down at my food, slightly impressed. "..Did Brutus make this?" He chuckled. "Nah, he ordered it for us." I picked up my fork and began to eat.

"....So can we talk?...Or do you want me to wait until your finish?" I sat my fork down and sighed, wiping the corners of my mouth with my napkin.

"Talk." I leaned back and folded my arms across my chest. "...Obviously theirs alot of things we need to talk about...and I was thinking we should start from the beginning." I nodded my head. "I agree."

"...So where do we start from exactly?" He asked me. "Well all the problems started when your little friend Ryelle came into the picture." "Your right." I lifted a brow. "Really? Because you acted as if she never was a problem."

He nodded. "I know, I honestly didn't think she was, but I was wrong. She wasn't the only problem though, she added to them." I nodded. "Yes, but she was a major problem that brought out other problems." He sighed.

"After the kiss, you should have stopped the friendship, especially after you seen how upset and uncomfortable I was with it." He nodded. "You were uncomfortable with it from the start." I nodded. "As I shoud have been, obviously."

"But you also have to acknowledge your part in that too." I frowned. "I acknowledge my part in everything else, but as far and you and Ryelle go, that's not my fault." He leaned back into his seat and folded his arms across his chest.

"Really? I admit that I was wrong for being with Ryelle, but you pushed me towards her." My frown deepend. "Excuse me?? And how did I do that?" I leaned into the table, confused.

"Always bringing her up when we weren't even talking about her, accusing me of her, and always being so insecure." My eyes widened. "Insecure? You made me insecure, after you kissed her, you damn right I was insecure August." He sighed.

"If you made me feel more secure with our relationship, I wouldn't have acted like that. Even though I have the ring and the title of being your wife, I want to feel like Im number one, but I always feel like Im second best to someone else." I took a deep breath, trying not to cry.

"Im sorry if I made you feel that way." I nodded, feeling slightly better since he apologized. "But." He started. "I was wrong for still being friends with Ryelle after the kiss, I should have cut it off right then and there." I was silent. "I cant take back what I did in the past, all I can do now is apologize and reassure you that it won't happen again."

I folded my arms across my chest and lifted a brow. "And how do I know that?" "Because." He started. "I told you Im no longer friends with Ryelle anymore, she's completely out of my life." I nodded slowly. "...So you guys don't speak at all?"

"At all." He said, reassuring me. I opened my mouth to speak, but the sound of Augusts' phone vibrating on the table stopped me. I glanced down at the screen and rolled my eyes when I seen Ryelle calling. "Oh, speak of the devil." He picked his phone up and sighed once he looked at the screen.

"I thought you guys weren't friends anymore." He sat his phone back down, letting it ring. "We're not." "Mhm, so why is she calling you?" He shrugged. "...I don't know..." I frowned. "Don't lie to me."He shrugged. "I don't know ma, maybe she heard about the accident and she wanted to see how I was doing." My frown deepend.

"If your not friends anymore why would she care?" He took a deep breath before speaking. "...Ight look ima be honest....she may have admitted to me that she was catching feelings for me and-" I stood up from the table, not wanting to hear the rest of it.

"Simone, wait." I started walking towards the stairs, trying to fight back my tears, when I felt him grab my arm and turn me back around. "Don't walk away from me." I tried as hard as I could not to cry infront of him, but a few tears escaped my eyes.

"Did you have sex with her?" He leaned up agaisnt the wall, trying to take the weight off his bad leg. "No, I didn't sleep with her, I wouldn't do that." I wiped my face, not sure if I believed him or not. "Im serious August, if you slept with her you might as well tell me now becau-"

"I didn't sleep with her, I swear to you I didn't." I took a deep breath and released it slowly. "So how did she catch feelings for you?? Did you lead her on?? What did you do to make her like you more than a friend?" He shook his head. "I don't know I never gave her any signals to make her think I liked her....besides..." He trailed off.

"Besides what?" I folded my arms across my chest and waited. "Don't get upset alright?" I frowned, wondering where he was going with this. "Something happened that should have never happened.....she um....she....she.. gave me head." I stood in the same spot, shocked by his words.

"It was a huge mistake, and It didn't mean anything, don't get mad ma." I could feel my face getting hot, as tears spilled out of my eyes and down my cheeks. At that point I couldn't hold it in any longer. I broke down into tears, crying infront of him.

"Baby don't cry." August said to me. He grabbed onto my shaking hands and pulled me into him, wiping my tears and kissing my wet cheeks. "Im sorry, it was a mistake, and I regret it more than anything." I couldn't even find the words to speak since all I could do was cry.

He held me close to his chest as he comforted me. "Im sorry." He mumbled. He lifted my head up and wiped my face again before kissing me on the lips. "Im sorry Sim, forreal, I love you and Im sorry." He kissed me repeatedely, stopping my tears with every kiss.

He kissed me one more time, but this time I kissed him back. He leaned up agaisnt the wall for support, as our tounges wrestled in each others mouthes. His hands traveled down to my ass, grabbing as much of it as he could, causing me to jump and pull away from him.

"Stop." I let go of him and wiped my face. He winced in pain as he tried to stand up off of the wall. "...You need to sit down..and rest your leg." He nodded. He slowly stood all the way up and limped his way back to his chair.

Once he sat down, he looked up at me and motioned to my seat. "..Are you gunna sit down?" I shook my head no. He sighed. "I know your upset, but don't be like this, sit down." I lifted a brow. "You really want me to sit down?" "Yeah, I do."

"Okay." I said. I placed my hand at the top of my leggings and pulled them off. He stared at me in confusion, not knowing what I was doing. I slowly walked over to him and placed my hand at the top of his basketball shorts. "What you doing?" He asked lowly.

I pushed them down, just enough so my access was easier. I pushed the top of his boxers down and pulled out his stiff man. He sat back in his seat silent as he watched me lift one leg up and sit down in his lap. I pushed my panties to the side and reached down and grabbed him, slowly pushing him inside of me.

In unison, we both let out a grunt of relief. I looked down into his eyes, as I slowly began to ride him. He closed his eyes and put his head back, trying to contain himself. "Shit...faster." I placed my hands at the top of his chair and followed his instructions. He gripped my waist tightly, guiding me in the way he wanted it.

"Fuck..." He mumbled. I picked up my pace a little bit more, once the feeling of pleasure took over my body. In the midst of me riding him, he decided to take control. He held onto me as he pounded into me, not even caring about his injury. Ever now and then he would slightly wince in pain, but I knew the pleasure he was feeling was overpowering anything else he felt.

I bit down on my bottom lip, trying to contain my loud whimpers. "Tell me you love me." He said between breaths. I opened my mouth to speak, but all that came out were moans. "...I-I l-love you." Once I said that, he went as hard as he could, pushing all of himself inside of me.

I tried taking over, but it was no use, it was obvious he was in need of this right now. I tightened my grip on his chair, once I felt myself about to release. "Shit....don't stop." I said, trying to catch my breath. His grip on my waist tightened as we both released at the same time.

I lifted up, and slowly pulled him out of me, trying to catch my breath in the process. I stood up from his lap and grabbed my leggings from off the floor, slipping them back on. I watched as August pulled his boxers back up and then his basketball shorts.

"..So we gon finish talking now?" He asked, in between breaths. "No." I said sternly. He frowned. "Wait, what?" I pushed my hair away from my face and nodded. "Im going out with Sean and I need to be ready on time." He chuckled in disbelief. "You kiddin right?"

I shook my head no. "No, Im not." I turned towards the stairs, just for him to folllow behind me. I didn't know how he caught up to me so fast, but he did. "You really bout to go out with him?" He asked, pulling me back. I pulled my arm out of his grasp and fixed the shirt I was wearing. "Yeah we're friends, and I wanna hang out with him."

He rubbed his chin, suprised at what I was saying. "So you gon leave right after what we just did??" I sighed. "....Go lay down August, your gunna hurt your knee even more by putting pressure on it, you need to get in the bed."

I stepped up one step, trying to talk away, but he placed both of his hands on my waist, pulling me back. "So you just gon leave me here like Im some side hoe?" I quickly turned around and lifted a brow.

"Oh, just like you left me like I was some side hoe??" He was silent. I looked him up and down before turning around and making my way upstairs to the bedroom.

***********************

"You hungry?" Sean asked, quickly looking over at me. "No, Im fine.." He nodded. "Okay, where you want to go then?" I shrugged. "It doesn't matter, you can decide." He took one hand off the wheel and placed it on my thigh. "You alright? You've been quiet every since I picked you up."

I sighed. "No, Im fine." He took his hand off my thigh and focused back on the road. I stared at the window, wondering where we were going and frowned once I seen we were in a park's parking lot.

"This is where you wanted to go?" He pulled into a empty space and parked. "No, You look like you need someone to talk too, so I decided we should talk right now." He cut off the car and leaned back into his seat.

"So wassup?" He said, staring at me. "Nothing....I just have alot going on right now, that's all." He nodded slowly. "Anything I can help with?" I looked up at him in silence.

"...Acutally yeah." He nodded. "Ight, what can I do for you." My eyes slowly gazed down to his lips. "Kiss me." He frowned. "What?" "Kiss me." I stated again. "Didn't you say you wa-"

I lifted out of my seat and leaned over to his, kissing me as hard as I could. At first he was caught off guard by my actions, but he eventually went along with it. I put one leg across him, and sat in his lap, not parting our lips once. I placed my hands on his shoulders and continued to kiss him.

Sean placed his hands on my waist and softly pulled me back. "Hol up, wait." He wiped his mouth and caught his breath. "What's goin on right now?" I frowned. "...We were kissing." He shook his head. "Nah, I mean...what's going on, what is this?" He asked motioning between our bodies.

"Last time I tried doing something with you, you told me you wasn't ready for it, and you were uncomfortable, what changed?" I shrugged. "Nothing..I just wanna kiss you that's all." I leaned into him, trying to kiss him again, but he stopped me.

"Are you sure you wanna continue doing this?" I nodded. "Yeah, and I know you are." I said looking down at his stiffened third leg. He sighed. "Ight look, Ima be a good guy for two more minutes, are you sure your doing this with me for the right reasons?"

I paused for a second. "Yeah....I mean...I think so." He took a deep breath and slowly let go of my waist. "Get back in your seat ma." I slowly slid off of him and got back into the passenger seat. He took another deep breath, trying to relax himself and his third leg.

"Wassup? A minute ago you were sad, and now all of a sudden you wanna jump my bones, I mean ion mind, but shit Im kinda confused." I sighed. "I know, I know, Im sorry." I pushed my hair back and leaned my head on the back of the seat.

"What's going on with you?" "Nothing...August and I had a talk before I came out with you and it has my head all messed up." He nodded slowly. "He's done alot to hurt me, and all I wanna do is hurt him, so he can feel what I feel."

"That's why you jumped on me like that?" I slightly chuckled. "...Yeah...Im sorry." He scratched his chin. "It's straight, your obviously going through alot right now, and you need some time to think." I nodded.

"And Im gunna give you that time." I frowned. "What do you mean?" "You need to take a step back and get yo mind right, and ion think you can do that 100% being with me all the time." I was silent. "Im not saying to stop hittin me up, but to take a break from me right now, and get yo shit right first, and when you good, you can hit me up if you want, you know I'll always be available for you." He licked his lips and smiled.

"....I guess your right." He nodded. "Im always right." He started up the car and smirked. "Ima take you home ight?" I nodded. "Okay."

***************

I kicked my shoes off at the door and quietly made my way up the stairs. All the lights in the house were out, so I knew everyone was sleeping. I glanced down the hall at the guest room, to see the lights off as well so I knew August was sleeping.

I tip toed into my bedroom and closed the door behind me softly. I sat my phone down on the nightstand and turned on the lamp. I was just about to sit down on the bed when I noticed a pile of papers on my sheets.

I picked up the top sheet that read Legal Documents. My eyes automatically went to the bottom of the paper, once I seen something written there. "He signed them." I mumbled. Once I realized I was holding the seperation papers I sighed. I sat them on the nightstand and got ready for bed.
