Mike appeared out of no where placing his arm around my shoulders. The boys all started to "cough" encouraging me to ask the question that was on all of our minds so I did.
"Hey Mike, do you still have that crush on me?" Mike blushed hard. I'll take that as a super yes. Mike shook his head looking around, "really? Because I felt your hard-on when you came behind me earlier" the guys died right there and then. Mike looked like he wanted to die, he went pale and the color in his lips was almost gone. "It's okay Mike don't worry" I kissed his cheek that instantly brought him back to life. I then turned back to the guys, "and you guys, don't laugh. I'm pretty sure it's happen more then once to you all at one point in your life" they all stopped and nodded. I giggled and saw Copeland running back.
But I also saw Dinah coming my way. Oh shit. This can't be good. I think Normani heard the what I said and now she sent Dinah to give me her signature poly beat down. Before I knew it Dinah was standing in front of me looking as serious as could be.
"Stephanie, I need to talk to you" I only nodded and followed behind her. I turned back to see everyone looking at me scared. Copeland looked sad which broke my heart, I pulled Dinah back "give me a second" she sighed but nodded. I ran over to Copeland.
"Come on munchkin" I pulled out my hand for her to take which she did immediately. I turned to Katelynne and asked her if she wanted to come, she did. I quickly walked up to the stairs to my room and into my closet. "Okay munchkin this wabbit and his my best friend since I was your age, now his someone you can trust with all your secrets and fears. I promise you Copeland he will never judge you in anyway. Now I'm giving him to you because I wouldn't always be around but that doesn't mean we won't be able to talk, your daddy has my number, and I'll even give your mommy number so when ever you feel like talking to me or just need a friend beside wabbit I'll be here okay?" Copeland nodded understanding ever single word I said.
"Thank you Stephanie" Katelynne said responded with tears in her eyes. I nodded and kneeled down to Copeland, I could see tears start to form in her eyes as well.
"Hey munchkin don't cry, it's me and you remember?" Copeland nodded but I could tell there was something behind their tears I just couldn't put my finger around it. I picked her up and held her in my arms, she placed her head on my shoulder and lightly cried.
When you're stuck in a moment
And your spark has been stolen
This is our time to own it
So own it
Baby, we were born with
Fire & gold in our eyes, eyes
With fire & gold in our eyes, eyes
Got lightning in a bottle
Hands on the throttle
Even in the dust we shine
With fire & gold in our eyes
I sang quietly I felt Copeland breathing even out, Katelynne whispered she had fallen asleep nodding I lightly placed her on my bed and covered her little body with my blanket. Katelynne said she was going to watch over her. I understood and gave her number befor kissing Copeland's cheek and walking out to find Dinah.
Man when I found her she was pissed. And I mean pissed. She was sitting on of my pool chairs looking at the people swim around but as she spotted me she stood up and marched over.
"Where the hell have you been!?" She yelled, people looked over but she didn't care.
"In my room with a crying Copeland. I'm sorry" Dinah's face soften as she nodded.
"Okay. I need to talk to you" I nodded once again.
"Not here tho" I looked around seeing no possible place to actually talk.
"Follow me" I told her. She followed behind me. I walked back into the house down into the basement into the studio that was sound proof. There we both sat down across from one another and stared until she started talking.
