Flashback

"The famous Nina" Erik said walking towards me. "Hello Erik" I said smiling "I didn't know you worked out" He said smirking "Its an anger management technique" I told him he continued to smirk and I was just wondering why. "Why do you keep smirking at me" I asked confusingly. He just turned around he went to where the dumbbells were starting is work out.

45 minutes pasted and he asked f I wanted to go get something to eat with him. I aint no fool I said yes obviously That man is a Bast gift in the making I'm sure of it. We ate and talked a little it "Since when is Erik Stevens offering to buy food for a girl" I asked. "I don't I only ordering for you what you want" he asked as we sat in drive thru of Wendy's since it was close to my apartment. "I just want a chicken sandwich" I said. As we pulled up to the speaker he order us A chicken sandwich, 2 sprites, 2 bacon sandwiches & 2 large fries.

"Thank you for the food" I said getting out the car. He got out also and I was a bit confused. "Nigga its 10:00 pm I ain't letting you walk up there by yourself" He responded. I'm guessing he seen my face we walked up stairs and my neighbor my bad My neighbor that has a big ass crush on me Carlos interrupted our conversation "Hey Nina whos your friend" He asked swinging his arm around my shoulder.

"Umm None of your business" I said plucking his arm from off of my shoulder. "Damn that's how you feel" he said. Erik laughed & didn't even care if Carlos cared. Carlos glared at Erik but he just simply walked away "You gotta deal with that nigga everyday" Erik asked. "Nah I be ignoring his ass" I told him unlocking my apartment door "Thanks ill cash app you the money" I told him. "Nah don't worry about it you good" he responded walking down the hall. Wow Erik Stevens was actually nice for once.

End Of Flashback

I fell asleep after thinking about the flashback for a while. Maybe I did miss Erik but by the way he been giving me the silent treatment I know he doesn't feel the same about me. He's always staring at me but when I look at him he just turns away. Like of all people why is he giving me the silent treatment I still love him regardless the feeling I have for him will never go away I hope but he doesn't have to isolate me out like that. He comes and says hi to Lexi when I'm with her but doesn't say a damn word to me. Did I really fuck up everything between Me & Erik?

Of course I feel asleep dwelling on that question it really wasn't leaving my mind. It felt like I fell asleep but really I didn't I was still stuck on that same question. It was on repeat in my head for a whole 2 hours. Finally It was 7:00 I had to get it together so I can just go out and have fun instead of having this damn Question in my head for ours. I went to take another shower and as soon as I started pouring my body wash on my sponge the question came back into my head.

Did I  really fuck up everything between Me & Erik. Did I really fuck up everything between Me & Erik.

I got out the shower erasing the question when another flashback.

Flashback

"Erik calm down it don't even hurt that damn bad" I said pulling one of his dreads. "Bullshit your fucking heavy-handed dawg next time I asking somebody else to do my dreads" He holding on the part I was doing. "Nigga good your fucking tender headed as fuck my fucking back hurt" I said popping his hand out the way. Finally I finished and sat back on the couch.

"I will never ask you to do my fucking dreads again" he said calmly. I aint even do his damn hair that tight or tight at all he over reacting for real let me had really did his hair tight. I would've seen his ass cry.

End Of Flashback

I tried to erase the memory and did my make up. After I finished my make up it was 7:38pm it takes me 20 minutes tops to get to Kylies house. I go down the stairs to my car and another flashback comes I try my best to fight it and it went away.
