JALEN DALLAS: 

I’m still unpacking my apartment even though I’ve been in it almost a month, I have so many clothes and everytime I needed something I would just go in the box and take it out, it was so convienent but I know I needed to get it over with. 

Jalen sighs. 

JALEN DALLAS: 

I’ve been kind of seeing Trapp again so I invited him over to help me finish unpacking my place and to kind of talk.  

The scene cuts back to Jalen inside of his apartment, he opens the door and Trapp on the other end makes his way inside the apartment, carrying a dufflebag, he sets it on the floor and picks Jalen up giving him a kiss, Jalen wraps his legs around Trapp kissing back then finally dropping down to the floor.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

How was the flight? 

Trapp laughs. 

TRAPP: 

That shit was boring as fuck, I was up all night thinking I was going to fall asleep on the flight but I was up the whole time.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

Luckily it wasn’t long though.  

TRAPP: 

You cook? A nigga hungry. 

JALEN DALLAS: 

I ordered out, it should be here soon, I ordered it once you told me the Uber was there.  

TRAPP: 

You happy to see me? 

Jalen nods.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

Yeah. 

TRAPP: 

Then show a nigga some love. 

Jalen leans in and kiss Trapp again on the lips, Trapp moves his hand up and down Jalen’s body in a sexual manner finally placing his hand on Jalen’s ass groping it. 

TRAPP: 

Yeah I miss that shit right there.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

Of course you did. (Jalen pushes Trapp playfully.) But nah nigga it won’t be any of that until we set shit straight. 

TRAPP: 

Here you go, I haven’t been here 2 minutes yo and you already ready wanna dive into that shit.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

Hell yeah. This is important Trapp, I can’t have you playing with me like that again, like this shit is serious and I’m doing a lot better.

JALEN DALLAS: 

I don’t know why Trapp is acting all surprised because I already told him what was up when he got here, I’m only letting him stay with me a few days just to see how things go and then I guess we’ll figure it out later but I just can’t get caught up in this nigga drama anymore.  

Jalen sighs. 

JALEN DALLAS: 

I mean this dude has put me through some shit, whether it's jail stints, drugs, or just whatever situation that can fuck up your life I was involved with when I met this nigga. I guess after his time in jail maybe he’s matured but you just don’t know with him. 

Jalen pauses, he looks down at the floor for a second and then back up at the camera.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

And I can’t believe I still have love for this nigga but he was my first, my first everything. So I guess it was different with him. 

The scene cuts back to Trapp and Jalen.  

TRAPP: 

What you want to talk about yo? 

JALEN DALLAS: 

About us nigga, like I’m not doing this on the downlow shit anymore, I’m not dealing with all your bullshit when it comes to that drugs shit or scamming like I’m a different person now, I was young and I let you take control of everything. 

TRAPP: 

I’m not even doing that shit anymore yo, I’ve told you I’ve changed. I wouldn’t have left my life back in Philly if I wasn’t trying to be serious with you, but on the real you already know I’m going to hustle until I can find real work out here. 

JALEN DALLAS: 

But you don’t need to do that anymore, that nickel and dime shit not worth it man. I got connections and I can help you. 

TRAPP: 

Man fuck all that, I’ve worked and got shit on my own, I’m suppose to be taking care of you nigga so we’ll work it out and plus baby moms probably going to put me on child support if I don’t keep bread in her pocket.

JALEN DALLAS: 

Oh yeah I forgot to mention one thing, when I met Trapp he was like a real hood ass nigga, still is. He was still fucking females, having relations with female and while we were fucking around he was still messing with this chick Jessica, eventually the girl ended up pregnant and he got a 1 year old named Zion. 

Jalen rolls his eyes. 

JALEN DALLAS: 

The baby cute but he only know me as his friend Jalen, or his play uncle as for Jessica, well she doesn’t have a clue of our relationship but I guess after she see this, she will.  

The scene cuts back to Jalen and Trapp. 

TRAPP: 

I really ain’t ready to tell the world about this situation though, you already know how my peoples feel and I’m still trying to figure out if this is what I want. I never thought I would be telling another nigga I got love for them but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t so I mean you gotta be patient with me. 

Jalen rolls his eyes.  

JALEN DALLAS: 

I’ve been patient 2 years yo, and I’ve been then more than your baby momma and that’s real. Look I’m just happy you here and I really don’t want to fight. 

TRAPP: 

No one fighting, you just rushing shit. I just got here so let me breathe first, let me enjoy spending time with you before we get into all that real life shit.  

Trapp leans over smacking Jalen on the butt. 

TRAPP: 

And stop playing yo, it's been months. I need that work! 

Jalen tries hard not to smile but he does, he grabs Trapp hand and pulls him off the couch they were sitting on and leads him into the bedroom as the scene fades.
