"Thank you for shopping Luxe Boutique." Jazmine smiled as she handed the woman her shopping bag.
"Thank you." The young woman smiled before exiting the boutique.
Jazmine made sure that the coast was clear before she made her way to the very back of the store. She met with Tyron who sat at the small table with his face in his phone. Jazmine took a seat on the stool beside him as she looked over at him.
"Hey." Jazmine said not taking her eyes off of him.
Tyron was much too into his phone to pay attention to her as he bit at his thumbnail. Jazmine absolutely hated when he did that. She sighed as she leaned over to see what was so interesting in his phone.
"Don't tell me you're still trying to get those concert tickets." Jazmine smacked her lips.
"Bitch it's Beyoncé." Tyron glared at her.
Jazmine rolled her eyes and let out a slight laugh. She knew just how much her best friend loved him some Beyoncé. Little did he know just how much she actually developed a hate for her. She needed a way out of this situation.
"Boom bitch!" Tyron shouts.
"What?" Jazmine rubbed her ear.
"We have a date with the Queen." Tyron grinned. "And if you ain't ready you better get ready!"
"Lord, when is the occasion Ty?" Jazmine sighed. "How you gon' just book me open for something without-"
"Jaz!" Tyron startled her. "If you don't just shut your ass up and let's figure out what the hell we wearing! Damn!"
Jazmine did just that. She didn't want to make her feelings for Beyoncé any more obvious than she has. To her knowledge, Tyron was very blind to it and she wanted to keep it that way. How do you tell your best friend that you pretty much hate the love of his life? Or that you might've been romantically involved with for that matter.
Jazmine and Tyron finished their last order before closing up the boutique. They even dug around for some ideas on the outfits they'd be wearing to the concert. Tyron laid across his bed as he sketched around a few ideas on a sheet of paper. A red mini dress for Jaz and a black and red short set for himself. He wanted them to look good seeing as they were going together.
"Ooh! Me and my bitch about to look so good!" Tyron said to himself.
Meanwhile, Jazmine laid in her bed sleep as the sound of her fan went on. She tossed and turned and tossed and turned. Making a slight groan as she adjusted her comforter, holding her pillow tight.

"Who was he?" Jazmine yelled as she slammed the front door behind her.
"Nobody, Jazmine." Beyoncé sighed aloud.
"So you've been talking to nobody all day?" Jazmine squinted.
"Will you chill?" Beyoncé walked into the kitchen.
Beyoncé grabbed a water bottle from the fridge and opened it, taking a sip. Jazmine stood on the other side of the island across from Beyoncé as she stared over at her. The feeling of anger began to try and take over her being, but she didn't want to go off tonight. They had almost had a perfect day together but the constant phone use from Beyoncé made it quite hard for Jazmine to fully enjoy the time they spent together.
"I've been chill all day but you've been so into your phone." Jazmine placed both of her hands on her hips. "All day."
"You do know that I do have a job, right?" Beyoncé leaned over on the island. "It may not be a regular nine to five Jaz, but I do work."
"Yeah." Jazmine plainly says.
Jazmine slowly began to make her way out of the kitchen and up the stairs to her bedroom but Beyoncé quickly blocked her.
"You okay?" Beyoncé asked her.
"Yeah." Jazmine nodded her head not making eye contact with her.
"Jazmine." Beyoncé grabbed her chin. "You're lying."
Jazmine let out a breath as she looked into Beyoncé's eyes. She hated the thought of her entertaining another someone if it wasn't up on the stage.
"Tell me something." Jazmine's voice grew deep.
"Anything." Beyoncé nods.
"What are we doing?" Jazmine asks as she anxiously bit her bottom lip.
"What do you mean?" Beyoncé questions as she pulls Jazmine by the waist.
They were now chest to chest. Jazmine had so many thoughts running through her head. So many emotions that she wanted to let out but instead she decided it was best to keep things simple.
"What am I?" Jazmine looked down at her side.
Beyoncé grabbed Jazmine's face and admired the features in front of her. She especially loved her lips.
"You, Jazmine Sullivan, are the most beautiful and wonderful girl I've ever met." Beyoncé softly spoke. "You're sweet, loving and have been the most incredible and supportive girlfriend ever."
The biggest smile was now plastered across Jazmine's face. She couldn't help but to blush at the words flowing from Beyoncé's lips.
"There's that perfect smile." Beyoncé grinned. "Its about time. Are you done pouting?"
"Shut up." Jazmine tried holding in her laughter.
"You plan to make me?" Beyoncé raised an eyebrow.
The pair stared in silence at one another before their lips fell in sync with each other's. Beyoncé let her fingers roam Jazmine's body as she deepened the kiss even more. Jazmine softly moaned into her mouth as she began to feel herself getting wet. Beyoncé broke the kiss without warning and held out a hand.
"Let me holla at you real quick." Beyoncé demanded.
Jazmine nodded taking her hand as they both trailed up to her bedroom.

The smell of coffee perking was enough to have Jazmine standing to her feet as she slid into her house slippers and robe. She went into the bathroom to handle her business and after began to brush her teeth. Jazmine could smell the lovely scent of cinnamon and she knew exactly what that meant. She met with her best friend who stood over the stove dancing. Jazmine couldn't help but to let out a laugh as she watched as Tyron began to twerk and flip the piece of French toast in the frying pan. She walked over to him and gently tapped him on the shoulder.
"Girl!" Tyron slightly hollered.
"Good morning." Jazmine smiled. "Whatcha listening to? Let me guess, Beyoncé?"
"I ain't sorry!" Tyron sung.
Jazmine shook her head laughing at her best friend.
"It smells so good in here." Jazmine took in the smell of the kitchen.
"All your favorites." Tyron smiled at her.
French toast, eggs, hash browns and fresh pineapples laid out on the table with a pitcher of orange juice and cup of coffee. Although she appreciated Tyron's hard work in the kitchen this morning, Jazmine knew there was an occasion and couldn't help but to ask.
"So what's the occasion?" Jazmine asks, taking a seat at the table.
"Last night while you were drooling in your sleep, I finished designing our outfits for the show." Tyron squealed.
"Can I see?" Jazmine popped a pineapple into her mouth. "And when is the concert again?"
"Not yet and it's next week." Tyron took a sip of his orange juice.
"Next week?" Jazmine paused. "That was fast.."
"What you got some shit to do?" Tyron glared. "Whatever it is it can wait."
"Anyway." Jazmine rolled her eyes. "Why can't I see the designs?"
"Just trust me, baby." Tyron nods. "I'ma make sure you looking real good for Bey."
Jazmine slowly began to start eating her food in hopes that they could change the subject. Afterwards, Jazmine began to start working on the dishes as Tyron cleared the table and counter. Jazmine desperately wanted to mention how much she did not want to go to the concert but she decided it was best to put her feelings aside for the sake of her best friend whom she loved dearly and would do anything for. She'd do anything to make him happy.
"What you got going on today?" Jazmine turned to Tyron.
"I'll be down at the shop for a couple hours and then nothing after that." Tyron shrugs. "Why? What's up?"
"Okay we'll I'm taking you to dinner tonight." Jazmine says. "And you need to wear something nice."
"Bitch, I always look nice." Tyron snaps his fingers. "But oooh okay and what's the occasion?"
"I can't treat my best friend to a nice dinner?" Jazmine scrunched her face.
"You definitely can." Tyron quickly said. "It can just be a thank you dinner."
"For what?" Jazmine laughs.
"Getting you tickets to see Beyoncé, duh." Tyron said before walking away.
Jazmine stood in front of the sink as she shook her head at the mess her friend was. She looked up at the ceiling and blew out a huge breath. Heaven knows she didn't want to be apart of this event not even a little bit but after all she did want to enjoy a good time with her best friend. They've only talked about partying together at a Beyoncé concert since forever. Jazmine laughed to herself as she shook her head once more.
"It's just one night." Jazmine said to herself before leaving the kitchen.
