August

"Aye, bro?!" I heard followed by a knock on my door.

Getting up out of bed, I adjusted my pants and made my way over to the door. We were in Tampa, before heading over to Florida. I had a total of eight more shows to go within the next two weeks, but I was tired.

"What's up man." We dapped.

"We bout to head to the beach, you down?"

"Yeah man, what time?"

"Everyone's getting ready now."

"Aight cool. I'll meet y'all out front."

Jogging over to his room, I closed my door and went to get ready. Packing a small bag first, I then pulled my clothes and then got in the shower.

I must admit, though I was tired with all the work and moving around, this tour was a great one. From my fans and they way they've showed up and showed out, to my team killing it each and every show.

Finished dressing, I grabbed my bag and phone and left. Seeing Kevin in the hall, we greeted each other, same time he was yelling at his sister to come on.

"Y'all are too much man." I laughed and shook my head.

"Nigga go ahead!" She yelled back.

"Damn." I said take aback hearing her say nigga.

"Oh you hearing her be herself huh?" He laughed.

"Hey Aug." She greeted me as she came out.

"Hey."I gave her a head nod.

"Finally." Kevin said as she pulled the door behind her. "All that time for this." He said messing with her hair.

"August get your friend." She said as she walked off.

"Hey, leave me out of that." I said with my hands up in defeat.

As we made our way to the elevator, the both of them were you by back and forth till we got out front and met up with everyone.

"You look cute." Candice complimented her.

"Thanks." She smiled as she walked over to the rest of girls.

Boarding the busses, we were on our way.

********

"Here you go."

Looking to my side, Kevin was handing me a beer before he sat.

"Thanks man."

Sitting under the umbrella, we basically spent our entire day here at the beach. It was relaxing, despite the persons who were coming up to me, asking for pictures and autographs.

"So what's up?" I glanced at him then back out at the water.

"Nothing man."

"Now you know I can read people, so what's up?"

"Aight man." He laughed. "So I know you and my sister are cool but is there anything else underlying that I should know about."

"Nah man. We just friends."

"Okay." He nodded. "You got feelings for her?"

Hearing him ask straight up, I decided to just be honest and admit my feelings.
