Esther POV:

I took ah deep breath before I spoke "look ion kno what's wrong wit u" I said looking at his head that was in my lap "but you needa fix it" I told him honestly while he just mugged me and got up "whatchu talking bout?" He asked me tryna play like I'm dumb asf "don't do dat East" I said sternly tryna act serious as hell "Ever since I told you about what happened to me you've been actin weird" I said scratching my elbow while he smacked his lips finna say some shit that wasnt true until I gave him ah look.

"Tell the truth Shame the damn devil" I said while he mugged me and layed back down. It was quiet for ah few minutes until he decided to speak up "look ain neva felt like this befo" he said lookin up at me "it's weird asl ion like it" he said scratching at his heart "but just knowin that you had enough trust in me to tell me that shit hurt me" he said closin his eyes "cause you don't deserve to get hit not even once" he sighed "so yeah I have been actin different because ion like feelings and ion like how that nigga thought he could put his hands on you and speak to you afterwards" he said making me smile slightly.

I kissed him on his forehead "it's okay" I said while he shook his head "cause I'm big Esther purrr and bc Ian with that nigga anymore" I said while he chuckled.

"Alright buka lesss gts" he said while turning the lights off and coming back over here I layed down and he wrapped his arms around my waist and we fell asleep.

\•/•\•/•\•/•\•/•\

I woke up because I gotta pee and East was on his phone not sleeping like he supposed to.

I rolled my eyes and got up going to the bathroom. After I was done I washed my hands and came back to the bed and snatched East's phone from his hand making him mug me "the hell you doing?" He asked me while I plugged his phone up and set it down on the dresser.

I pulled him closer to me "you needa sleep" I told him while he cuddled into me "go to hell" he said while falling asleep I just smacked his head but went to sleep along with him.

••••••••••••••••••

"East come on" I said while he didn't move we supposed to be going to the lobby to find out what we doing today but East ain't wanna move "See that's why I told you that you needa sleep more" I said while he smacked his lips and my phone rung.

I picked it up to see Zamora down there with everyone else "Hey sorry we not down there East don't wanna move" I said looking at him and facing the camera towards him " naw it's coo I just wanted to tell y'all we ain doin nun important today y'all can chill or go out" she said while I nodded "alright bye" I said while she gave me ah smile and hung up.

"Looks like we can stay sleep" he said making me smack my lips and turn the hotel tv on.

I found team umizoomi and turned to that while I heard East falling asleep again and while he was doing that I grabbed my phone and went on tiktok.

"Who u wit?" The audio said while I flashed the camera to East and back "bitch my nigga" I said while doing the head nod and East snatched the phone out my hand and put his face ina camera.

"Cause ain nobody on the phone" I said laughing at him cause he goofy asl "so whatchu wanna do today now that you all the way up" I asked him while he sat up and looked over at me "it don't matter" he said while I nodded my head and I got an idea.

"I'm gonna take you onna date" I said drummin my hands on the bed while he looked at me confused "what?" He asked me while I rolled my eyes "I'm gonna take you on ah date" I repeated again making him shake his head and close his eyes "what nun of your gf ever took you on ah date before?" I said smirking while he frowned hard and shook his head.

I straddled him "well I get to be the first" I said cheesing hard as hell while he chuckled and gave me ah hug. We stayed like that for ah minute before he let me go and looked at me and gave me ah quick kiss before lifting me up and flipping us.

"Hey Siri set an alarm for 5:00 pm" I said knowin he wanted to go to sleep "setting an alarm for 5:00pm" she said "Alarm set".

I kept nodding off and I'm pretty sure East was all the way sleep so I went to sleep to.

••••••••••••••••

"Where y'all going?" Tyler asked us while comin out of his room at the same time as us "I'm taking East out on ah date" I said while Tyler looked shocked and looked at East "You good?" He said and his face had concern written all over it "yeah I'm good" he said making me turn towards him "we don't gotta go if you dont want to" I said to him making him shake his head and smile "lead the way" he said nodding his head while I laughed.

"Alright bye ty" I said making him wave. Whoever East's last girlfriend was, was terrible if she ain't take him out onna date he looked shocked at my statement like she ain do shit for him.

"Give me your keys" I said while he looked at me and his car "look I promise I won't reck it but if I give you the directions you'll know and I want it to be ah suprise" I whined to him while he sighed and gave em to me making me squeal and run over to it.

I heard him laugh "get in!" I said opening the door and looking at the drivers wheel. East would never let me drive because he claims I drive to fast but ion think so they just all some wimps.

"Put yo seatbelt on" I said making him smack his lips but do it anyways. Ever since I've known him he will not put his seatbelt on not even the slightest so I constantly have to remind him.

"Alright you ready" I said while he nodded. I decided to be funny and put my hand on his thigh like he did to me "Buka if you don't get yo hand from there right now" he said giving me a look while I laughed and removed it. He put his hand on my thigh while I put the car in reverse and sped out the parking lot.

"Girl slow yo fuck ass down" he said while I stopped at the red light "Ian even going fast shut up" I said making him look at me and roll his eyes before leaning back in his seat.

I drove more carefully and I guess he was grateful "So you ain never been took out on ah date" I said turning ah corner while he shook his head "and why is that?" I asked while he shrugged his shoulder "idk guess ain nobody really care like that" he said making me frown "I do" I said while he pulled his hand from his head peeking at me in the corner.

"Ik" he said while I pulled up to the place we was eating at.

"Okay here we are" I said looking at the restaurant "Wendy's dinner" he read the sign while I nodded "I'm tellin u ppl said it's bomb here" I said getting out and going to the other side waiting for him.

He grabbed my hand and we walked up to the place "table for two?" The waiter said while looking at the both of us we nodded and she lead us back there.

"Your waiter will be with you soon here are your menu's" she said giving them to us while I had another question "do you guys have those kiddy menus where you can color?" I asked and she nodded "would you like one of them?" She asked me while I nodded "yes thank you" she walked off and came back with an cup full of crayons and ah coloring sheet.

"Thanks" I smiled at her while she nodded going back to her station.

"You ah big ass kid" East said while I laughed "and is" I said picking up ah crayon and starting to color on what looked like ah snail.

"Hello, I'm your waiter Erin for tonight where gonna start off with drinks which should be on the first page of the menu and appetizers right under them" she informed us while she kept making eye contact with an East who wasn't paying attention.

"Um buka you can go first" East said as I nodded then shook my head "no I'm taking you on ah date you go" I said knowin I wanted ah sprite and some fried mushrooms.

He looked at me and nodded "Get me ah Pepsi" he said not using manners but Ian give ah fück cause this bitch keepin lookin at him for what?

"Ok sir with that be all" she said leaning in closer to him "yeah he coo" I said while she looked at me "can I get ah sprite and some fried mushrooms" I told her while she nodded and wrote it down "I'll be right back with your orders" she told us while looking at East who was looking at me.

"Excuse me" I asked the girl who sat us down she came over "can you please get us ah new waiter ion like how she lookin at my nigga" I asked the girl politely while she blushed "Um yes what was your waiters name?" She asked me while I spoke again "Erin" I said while she nodded "sorry about that ma'am" she said going towards the back.

"Yo you funny asl" East said while I mugged him "naw cause why tf she keep lookin at you like that" I said while he chuckled and shook his head "so why you ain just get up and leave?" He asked me while I shook my head "cause I'm taking you out today and Ian gone let somebody like that ruin it fa you" I said while lookin him in his eye "why you ask me that ain't that normal" I said while he looked up and down "ion kno is it?" He asked me while I raised my eyebrows "yes East it is" I said while he shrugged.

"Hi I am your new waiter Sammy, and here are your drinks and your mushrooms" she said while placing our stuff on the table "are you guys ready to order?" She asked while I looked at East and raised my eyebrows he nodded.

"Yes we are" I said while she nodded and got her pen and paper ready "can I get the orange chicken" he said and she asked "small medium or large sir?" She asked professionally making me smile "Uhhh ah large" he said lookin at his menu "and can I get ah baked potato" he said "and add some sour cream at the top" he said as she nodded and turned to me "and for the lady?" She asked me while I looked down at my menu "can I get ah western omelet and ah baked potato like his" I told her while she nodded "ok you're orders will be with you shortly" she said walking away.

"So we goin back to the hotel after this?" He asked me while I shook my head "hell naw I gott ah another place" I said while taking my mushrooms and Dippin one in ranch. I bit off half of it and looked at East "huh" I said pushing the fork to him while he opened his mouth and ate it.

"Good ain't it" I said while he nodded and sat back "want me to be honest" he said while I nodded and leaned forward still eating my mushroom.

"Ian never had ah girlfriend that did this befo" he said while I nodded "my last girlfriend fucked me up so I had to take therapy and the three befo that wasnt no Betta" he said while I feed him another mushroom.

"What'd the last girlfriend do?" I asked him curious "she just would always accuse me of shit and get mad at me for no reason and she put her hands on me on multiple occasions but I let it slide bc i thought she loved me whole time she cheating wit one of my homeboys" he said making me squint "I'm sorry that happened to you" I said while looking at him.

"and I promise not to do that to you" I told him honestly while he smiled at me.

We finished the rest of my mushrooms and talked about shit that we thought was either funny or serious until our orders came back. We ate out food and it was bussin bussin East just made sure that we split the bill even though it was ah date from me to him.

"So we're we goin now" he asked while I jumped in the drivers seat "just ride" I said smirking and starting the car up "this ain fast and furious cut the shit out" he told me making me smack my lips and pull out the Parkin lot of the diner.
