"Yo ass better be ready." I say.

"The first thing you do is rush me. I can't get a hey or a good afternoon or something?" She asks.

"No. If you could then I would've said that instead." I reply.

"You're such a dick." Lani says.

"Am I at least a big one?" I ask.

"I don't know. You don't really give big dick energy." She said.

"Girl lie again. You always fucking playing with me." I reply.

She walks over to me eyeing me up and down. "Who said I was playing with you?"

"I did. Everything big over here shorty." I say.

"Oh really? I wouldn't know." Leilani said our bodies now pressed together.

I lick my lips looking down at her. "You tryna find out?"

"Get out." She laughs while pushing me away.

See there it is again. Her laugh got me smiling. "Don't be starting shit that you ain't gon finish."

This woman is really doing something to me that I don't know how to explain.

It was finally time for us to start leaving. We'd be driving since Vegas is only three to four hours away. The boys would be riding in Jaden's car and would be getting there a couple hours after us.

Right now we were at a gas station. Ya know getting gas and road trip snacks. Shit like that.

"You be eating pork skins? You are so weird." I say.

"I'm weird yet you always wanna be with me. Make that make sense." Lani replies.

I just nod not even disagreeing. "I'm with you when you right." 

After the quick stop we were out on the road. My phone was connected to the car playing music but not real loud. Of course I was behind the wheel. I kept my focus on the road while she was seriously tryna feed me gummy worms.

I thought it was actually cute. And of course my ass ate every one she offered. When the next song played I slightly turned up the radio. It was an R&B song but don't nobody need to know that I be listening to shit like this.

"This my shit." I say.

"For real? Sing it to me." Lani said.

"You do not want me to sing this to you." I respond.

"Yeah I do. I know yo ass got a voice. You just like that rapping shit instead though." She replies.

Alright when she hear these lyrics I don't want her to say anything. "Fine but I'm not singing the whole song."

I played it over and made sure the volume was at a good level.

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Oh, yeah
Yeah, whoa oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, ooh
Look

All them stars in the sky can't shine like you on your worst day
You make everything all good, 24/7 birthday, aye, aye
Don't let the talk 'round town bring you down, they just extra
Don't converse with these lames, they just tryna finesse ya
Can't nobody else even handle you
I just wanna put my hands on you

There she go looking like my future baby mama
Can't nobody do your body like my body, I'm sorry
Yo mama know what it is
I'm bout to give her all of her grand kids
Singing there she go looking like my future baby mama
Can't nobody do your body like my body, I'm sorry
Yo mama know what it is
I'm bout to give her all of her grand kids, grand kids

"Happy now?" I ask.

"Yeah." She answers staring at me with a look I couldn't decipher.

"Damn bro what you want a kiss or something?" I say puckering my lips playfully.

"You're not ready for all that." Leilani replies.

"How you gon tell me what I'm not ready for?" I ask.

"Simple. I just did it." She shrugs.

"That mouth of yours gon get you fucked up." I say.

She rolls her eyes at me. "Yeah we'll see."

She gets on my nerves so damn bad yet I don't want to be around nobody else. Shit is weird to me.

"This is so nice." Lani says as we entered the hotel room.

Nice was an understatement. The label had me at MGM Grand which is probably like the biggest, most extravagant hotel and casino. But this room was different. This was like a whole apartment. On some penthouse type shit. This shit had an upstairs area.

"I'm finna have fun in here. I know Vegas got some baddies." I say.

"You ain't gonna do a damn thing." She says quickly.

"Damn shorty why you sound all aggressive? I can't have no bitch in here?" I ask.

"No you can't. Don't start asking stupid questions." She replies.

"Ight whatever you say." I mumble.

While taking a look around this big ass room I decided to FaceTime Maddy, only to check on Riley. It rung like three times before she answered. She looks a hot mess. Like she just woke up.

"Riley must be kicking yo ass." I say.

"Worse than that." She says.

We had a small conversation. Nothing too major being discussed. Once I knew that her and Riley were good I told her I'd call again tomorrow.

"So what's the schedule looking like?" Leilani asked appearing out of nowhere.

"Obviously there's nothing going on for the rest of the night. Tomorrow night is the album release party. The day after is Rolling Loud." I say.

"Isn't tomorrow also your birthday?" She asked.

"Yeah. I can get an early birthday kiss?" I answer.

She gives me a kiss on the cheek although it was dangerously close to my lips. This woman is playing so hard to get. I ain't never had to try this hard in my life.

But one thing for certain and two things for sure. I'ma get her.

It's happening and can't nobody stop it. Sorry not sorry.
