"If I had to chose between my heart and you im gonna lose."
"Oh I wish there was a right way. I'm caught between your love and a hard place."
Flash back.
1 year ago.
"I don't like the way she looks at you." Morgan says scrunching her face up at mason.
"Morgan. Shut up. She not even doing none to you." Harlem says sighing.
"Yes she is... she's so nice and it annoys me. Why is she here again?" Harlem looks at her when mason walks up to them.
"Hey Morgan. Hello Harlem." She says smiling at the two of them.
"Wussup mason." Harlem says smiling at her.
"Yea hi maze."
"It's mason." Harlem corrects her. Morgan looks at him like he's crazy.
"Hi mason !" She says sarcastically.
"Oh this is for you." She hands Morgan the gift. "Happy birthday." She smiles at her.
"Oh thanks I guess." She shrugs and throws it in her car.
"Oh your welcome." She says quietly.
Harlem didn't like the way Morgan was acting towards mason. Mason has never done anything but be nice to her.
"Can I talk to you for a minute Morgan. We'll be back mason go inside and get a table." Mason nods her head and heads inside.
"Why you doing the most mane ?" He says kissing his teeth.
"Because I don't like her. I don't like the fact that y'all around each other all the time." She says crossing her arms.
"I- no fuck that. Act civil I don't have time for neither you or mason. She's cool -"
"You don't even know her like that Harlem ! We been together a year. I think we should take some time.
"Time ?! You breaking up with me over fucking mason. You dead ass right now?"
"Yes I am."
"Well then fuck you." Harlem says walking into the restaurant seeing mason.
"Mane... you always getting me into shit I swear. Why couldn't you just stay the fuck away from me. She broke up with me cus if you." He says sitting down.
"Oh no but .. I'm sorry." She says putting her head down. " I should go." He grabs her wrist.
"Nah ion wanna waste a dinner let's eat fuck Morgan." He says laughing.
"Oh okay." She says sitting back down.
"I'm pretty sure y'all will be okay though. I have no idea why she thinks I would want you." She says looking away. She knew why because she did want him badly. she would never act on her feelings though.

Present day
Harlem has woken up naked beside Morgan. He didn't know what he was doing. He didn't even know if he missed her for real. Harlem wasn't a hoe he only had like 5 bodies. He's never really been in love.
He use to like Morgan slot but it never got to the point of love. Harlem didn't believe in love or marriage. He thought it was all make believe.
"I see your awake." Morgan kisses his lips but he Didn't move his.
"What's wrong ?" She says with a worried expression. Harlem looks down at the time seeing it was 2 o'clock. He was late picking up mason from moms place. They had plans today.
"Shit I have to go... I'll text you aight." He says leaving and pulling his clothes on.
He texts mason.
To Mason- aye im on my way.. sorry I lost track of time.
From mason- no it's alright. You don't have to come.
Harlem looks down at his phone locking it. He just sighed,and drove over to masons place.

Mason and Harlem laid in silence until Harlem decided to speak.
"I saw Morgan yesterday... that's why I was late this morning." Mason looks over st him.
"Oh was it by accident or some ?" She says looking away.
"No I went over there. She texted me." He says sighing.
"Oh." Is all she says. Morgan treated her horrible when they were going out. Mason stayed nice though.
"I slept with her." He says out loud.
"Y'all getting back together ?" She says looking at him. He looks her in the eyes.
"Fuck mason don't look at me like that." He says getting up.
"Like what Harlem ?" She says sitting up.
"Like your disappointed in me." He says sitting down beside her.
"I'm not ... I'm just shocked that's all. She wasn't the nicest person to me. I just thought you wouldn't go down that ride again. Not that it's all about me. I know you don't base your feelings off mine." She says looking at him.
"Fuck." He says laying down and covering his eyes with his arm.
"I don't want to go down that rode again. She wants another chance. I don't know if I should -" he gets cut off by a kiss he jumps back.
"Mason what are you doing." He says looking at her shocked.
"Don't go back." She says lowly.
"I -I have to go." He says leaving as quick as he can.
Harlem has never wanted mason in that was. He didn't know what to do but he knew one thing. He didn't want mason like that. He cared about her deeply and he would have to explain that to her gently. He just needed to think.
Mason was caught between a rock and a hard place. She didn't know what to do. She was trying to be head strong but she couldn't.
She knew Harlem would never want her the way she wanted him. Her feeling that she keep in for so long had no where to go.
She was caught between his love and a hard place. She was afraid none thing would ever change. She didn't like that idea.

I don't wanna hear a "it's moving to fast"
No it's not it's moving st the pace I want it too.
Plus this book is going to be short like 20 or 25 chapters so this is pretty slow if you ask me.
