"Boyfriend?" Jasmine smirked at him.

He shrugged. "Welllll..."

I smacked my lips and they both looked at me again.

Jasmine nudged him and he nodded quickly. "Right."

I clenched my jaw and raised a brow as he held out his hand.

"Okay um, you know I'll just leave." Eric chuckled nervously.

I nodded as Jasmine turned to him smiling. "You just wanna leave so I'll have to clean that mess up."

He sighed. "You caught me."

Then they fucking...stared into each other's eyes like they've been in love for years.

I rolled my eyes and cleared my throat making them snap their attention towards me.

Eric chuckled. "See you later Jasmine," then he smiled at me. "Great meeting you Y/n."

I hummed. "You too."

I watched him climb into his car, as I turned to look back at Jasmine and caught her staring at me with a small smile.

"So?"

She blinked rapidly and shook her head. "I guess you can come in but, you have to clean the spaghetti."

I frowned and closed the door behind me as we walked into the house. "You cooked for him?"

She glanced over her shoulder. "No, he cooked for me."

Ohhh he's handsome and he can cook...I can cook too.

We walked into the kitchen and I frowned looking around. "There's no spill."

"Smooth ass was just trying to get me back into the house." She chuckled mumbling to herself.

I stepped in front of her. "Why would he be trying to get you back in, what were you two doing?"

She shrugged. "Fucking on the table."

I gasped. "How dare you."

She chuckled crossing her arms. "How dare you leave for three weeks."

I pouted. "Low blow."

She sighed. "That blow was nowhere near low," she walked past me. "You can eat the food if you want."

"I don't want his damn spaghetti," I shook the bag. "Snacks?"

She hummed and tapped her chin. "A bunch of pity snacks or a heartfelt plate of spaghetti?" She turned to the table and grabbed the plate as I frowned.

Looks like I'll be eating all of these snacks.

"So what'd you get us?" I quickly looked up at her and raised a brow as she placed the spaghetti in the fridge. "Oh- you thought I would pass on eating snacks with you?" She chuckled and walked up to me taking the bag and heading to the living room. "You must've forgotten who I was when you left."

I quickly followed her as my heart soared. Damn leaving was soooo stupid. I plopped down next to her as she pressed play on the TV. "Soooo," I shrugged. "What the hell is an Eric."

She laughed as she opened a bag of chips. "The guy that just left is an Eric."

I nodded slowly scooting closer to her. "So you have a boyfriend now?"

She bit her lip smirking up at me."Are you jealous?"

I scoffed. "No- actually yeah I am, you know I want you so I can admit when I jealous."

She hummed as she tried to hold back a smile. "When did you become so honest?"

"On the ride over here," I took the bag from her hands and rummaged through it. "I decide to start being straight forward and honest with my emotions and thoughts so you know, I don't feel the need to run again."

"So every thought?"

I rolled my eyes. "Well, I won't walk up to a random lady and say "oh your baby looks like a damn alien and-"

She slapped her hand over my mouth as her eyes widened. "Don't talk about that imaginary ladies baby before our child comes out looking like a alien."

"What's wrong with a baby that looks like an alien?"

"Hush."

I chuckled and put the bag onto the floor grabbing the remote and pausing the TV. "Jazzy..."

"Y/n..."

I grabbed her hand. "Quincy wouldn't let me apologize to him because he said he's just happy I'm back but, I still feel the need to say sorry."

"Why'd you come back?"

I wasn't expecting her to ask that.

"Um well, because Vanessa literally punched some sense into me and we had a heart to heart then I realized how dumb it was for me to ignore everyone and go crazy."

She nodded and gripped my hand. "So your back into the right mindset which means you don't have to say sorry, I know I was making a few slick remarks but I don't care that you left Y/n. I completely understand why you left, it was too much to handle and Quincy and I don't have a clue as to what you're going through," she shrugged. "The only people you owe an apology to are Travis and kind of Quincy because you left him to take care of Travis alone."

"But I left you while you're pregnant-"

"Y/n, just don't feel the need to apologize to me, as long as your here when I'm about seven months pregnant through the rest of your life I'll be completely cool with you distancing yourself whenever you need to handle shit on your own," she shrugged. "Your a big girl which is why I only called a few times, even if Vanessa didn't go and whoop your ass you would've figured it out."

"What if I never did."

She smiled softly. "I've known you for what, seven years now? Trust me you would've figured it out," she cupped my cheek while still gripping my hand. "Y/n your too damn sensitive and loving to be away for too long but your also stubborn as hell which is why I didn't panic after three weeks," she chuckled. "Remember when you were fourteen and you ran away because Tracy from across the street got a boyfriend?"

We both laughed as she continued. "Y/n you fucking left for four weeks everyone was worried and then you just showed up out of the blue because, "money doesn't grow on trees." I nodded chuckling. "You got your little heartbroken and ran away for three weeks so I wasn't surprised when you left, everyone handles tough situations differently and your coping means being alone or surrounding yourself with people you don't know so you won't have to talk about anything until your ready."

I shook my head harshly as I felt the tears forming again. "Just don't feel bad or like you need to apologize, especially not to me because I know your intentions weren't to hurt anyone."

This is why I'm so fucking in love with her.

I nodded deciding to change the subject before I cried again. "Well if you don't think I should apologize," I stood up and grabbed the bag full of snacks and the chips. "I'll take this and go."

She sat up quickly and wrapped her arms around my waist chuckling. "Sit your ass back down."

I glanced over my shoulder. "Make me-"

She pulled me back causing me to fall back on her. I quickly jumped up and threw a pack of Reece's at her. "You could've hurt my damn daughter," I quickly got onto my knees and rubbed her stomach. "Mommy is just fucking reckless huh?"

She smacked the side of my head and lifted my chin making me meet her eyes. She held my eyes for a few seconds and then nodded. "I get your trying to joke and change the subject but, even though I know how you cope I hate not having you around so from now on Dino, please don't ever leave me again."

I frowned and quickly sat next to her. "Okay, Jazzy I-I'll try."

She groaned. "Now I wanna cry," her voice cracked. "Damn pregnancy."

I started to panic not knowing what to do. "Um," I gasped. "Food ohhhh." I handed her the Reece's making her laugh.

"Dumbass."

I nodded. "That's my middle name." She sat the Reece's down and climbed into my lap wrapping her arms around my neck. "I-I'm getting mixed signals here Jazzy." I rubbed her back as my heart warmed.

She nodded. "Sorry, I just...can't control myself right now."

"Shit baby, go crazy so we can take this to the bed-"

"I hate youuuuu one second we're having a serious moment and then your cracking a joke." She laughed slapping my chest.

"Hey, you do the same thing."

She looked up meeting my eyes. "Yeah yeah, back to being serious," she shifted. "Just to clear this up since I know your dying to know, Eric, I don't have any feelings for him, I met him at IHOP and he took my mind off of you so, just to help you sleep at night, I like him but I don't like him."

Fuck yeah, that's my baby.

I nodded playing it cool. "You don't have to explain shit to me."

She nodded. "I know, I'm the one that rejected you." I scoffed and pushed her off my lap as she chuckled. "Now that was a low blow." I smacked my lips and stood up. "See were joking again- wait Dino come backkk," she continued to chuckle as I walked into the kitchen hearing her follow. "Dino my thighs hurtttt."

Huh?

"Why the fuck do your thighs hurt?" I turned to look at her as we both stepped into her room.

She raised a brow coming closer. "I told you we were fucking on the kitchen table."

I crossed my arms. "Thought you didn't like him."

She bit her lip and stood on her tippy toes while grabbing my collar. "Just because I don't like him doesn't mean I don't like that DICK-"

I covered her mouth and whined. "Jasmineeeee."

She laughed behind my hand and laid her forehead on my shoulder while wrapping her arms around my neck. I wrapped mines around her waist and sighed smiling softly.

"Just don't forget that he could never hold me like this and make me feel what you make me feel."

I huffed. "Gosh fucking females- like you just said, you rejected me Jazzy."

She sighed. "I know."

"It's not too late to take that back."

She leaned back and cupped my cheeks looking down at my lips. "I know."

"So?" I raised a brow glancing at her lips.

She shook her head.

I sighed and nodded. "Alright."

She pulled away completely. "Maybe I should stop being so touchy-feely- how about we watch a movie?"

She turned to walk away and I quickly grabbed her hand pulling her back into me. "Don't, I think I need you to be touchy-feely more now than ever."

She nodded. "Good because our son is really drawing me to you-"

"Daughter." I said between coughs.

She rolled her eyes and smacked my shoulder. "Limits then?"

I hummed. "Yeah um- no more than three rounds- no five rounds of sex."

She chuckled. "Y/n."

"Okay, fine kissing is too far."

She squinted. "I feel like theirs a loophole somewhere."

I raised a brow and she copied my action tilting her head. "No loophole."

She nodded. "Then deal, just don't let these moments stop you from moving on."

I nodded. "Okay but, make sure these moments do stop you from moving on."

She rolled her eyes. "Y/n I'm being serious."

"Yeah yeah, I'll go out and find me a girl tomorrow."

She quickly shook her head. "All those girls you were fucking? You better hope you're not having a baby with anyone else."

"Welllll, I got some big news-" she gave me the dirtiest glare and I gulped. "Yeah, that movie sounds nice."

"Mhmm." She went to walk out of her room but I grabbed her hands causing her to turn back towards me.

"I can't remember if you answered this but, why can't we happen again?"

She sighed. "I told you I'm just-"

"No, a legitimate reason because the Jazzy I know doesn't get scared."

She bit her lip. "She does when it means losing the person she loves the most."

I frowned. "Jas-"

"Movie...please."

I dropped her hand and she rushed out of the room.

"You just had to ask, dumbass."

-

"Wow, you actually came." Lilly stood with her arms crossed.

I sighed. "I'm sorry about the other day, I was going through some shit that I didn't wanna go through and I just lost it."

She nodded and hummed. "Sit we have some stuff to discuss."

I sighed and walked to the other side of the table sitting across from her. "Isn't Saiyr supposed to be here?"

She shook her head and pulled out some papers. "I had my meeting with her and her manager already," she looked up at me. "The meeting you missed."

I slouched down into my chair. "Sorry."

She shook her head. "Its okay Y/n, I'm sorry if I come off as a bitch I'm just under a lot of stress."

I nodded. "Wanna talk about it?"

"No no, I wanna talk about this tour."

"Right."

"So, next week Friday is the first day of the tour, Saiyr has already sold out two venues and this tour, if you say yes, will be amazing publicity."

"How long will it be?"

"Two to three months, I'll know for sure when her manager gets back to me."

Damn, three months? I just reappeared and now I'll be leaving again? Travis said he needed me, I can't just-

"C-could I bring my little brother with me?"

Taking him on a tour around different states would definitely make him feel better, if I know anything about my brother it's that he loves traveling and seeing new stuff.

"Good question, you can actually bring two people, since this isn't a huge tour there won't be a lot of crew and Saiyr has her own private plane so there's room for four people and you get two of those spots while Saiyr gets the other two."

I let out a sigh of relief and nodded. "Awesome so- she has a private plane?"

Lilly nodded. "Saiyr doesn't only sing so she makes a decent amount of money."

Damn, maybe I should ask her to be my sugar mama.

"Anyways, where are we going?"

"Well, first let's see if you'd be willing, payment. I'll need your answer in about five hours, if you say yes to the tour then Saiyr's people will put you on the tours cover as opening act and depending on how many people that gains, your payment will increase. Right now you'll only be getting paid 100k-"

I chocked on my spit and shook my head. "That's a fucking house- my first check was only 35k- and even that's a lot of fucking money."

She chuckled. "Wait till you see your next check, you acting out and releasing music all crazy got you sooo much attention and money plus, you topped the charts with Love Lies and didn't get paid for that yet so, 100k for this tour will look like change. Also, let's not forget your pretty good looking and your a female with a dick so your super popular."

I gulped feeling like I was about to throw up. "I- Okay let me breathe," I closed my eyes.

100k- more than 100k, I was really doing it like, this is really real. My dreams are coming true, fuck yeah wait until I tell my mom-

Oh...

Well, I know she's proud of me anyway.

My heart clenched and I opened my eyes. "Okay I'm good and I'm totally down I don't even care about the rest."

She chuckled. "Still wanna know what states?" I nodded and she looked down at a piece of paper. "First stop will be here in LA with three shows, then to Arizona with two shows, Washington two shows, Montana one show, Colorado two shows, Texas three shows, Oklahoma three shows, and finally Florida with three shows."

"Oof."

"Yes it's a lot but you are working with a pretty big artist."

I nodded. "Obviously, she has her own plane."

Lilly chuckled. "So each tour will be about two hours since it's only you and Saiyr performing, your performance in the states with one or two shows will be around thirty minutes long while your performances in the states with three shows will be about forty minutes since Saiyr will be performing a lot."

I nodded feeling myself get hyped. "Bet, what steps do I have to take, Twitter? I can tweet the shit out of this-"

"Y/n," she chuckled. "All you need to worry about is creating your performance list and if you want to tweet about it you can but if not I'll handle that."

I nodded. "How should I make the performance list?"

"Saiyr's songs are more upbeat so no sad slow songs and when making it you don't need a completely different set for each show but, make sure to change at least one song."

Got it.

"Easy, how long do I have to make it?"

"I want it by Wednesday."

I frowned. "That's only two days."

She shrugged. "You should've answered your phone."

I huffed.

"Dammit that pout is adorable, Friday Y/n no later."

I smiled. "Love you Lilly."

She stood. "Yeah yeah," she packed up her papers and headed towards the door as I smiled following her. I pulled the door open for her and she smiled softly at me. "I'm glad your better Y/n, like I said you're my favorite."

I nodded as she winked and walked out of the room.

She better stop playing because she could get-

Let me stop, I don't need anymore romantic feelings.
