***aug and jazz in m/m****
August POV-
Me and T parked the car. I pulled up my pants and we headed into Skylight.
"Why it's dark?" I asked as we went into the pitch black club.
"Surprise!" The lights flipped on and all my friends and family were laughing and clapping.
I held my head down smiling. T rubbed my head like a little kid.
"Happy Birthday Yung." He said.
As I walked in I greeted my family and friends with hugs and kisses as they wished me happy birthday.
A huge screen came down on the stage like area.
T told me to sit in front of this stage in this plush leather chair that was at the center of the stage.
A video started to play.
It was a black screen that said a Chi and Jazzy production, then it went to Chi sitting in a chair.
"Chi what do you love most about daddy?"
I heard Jazz's voice in the background behind the camera.
"Uh..." Chi put his arm in his mouth and mumbled something.
"Put your hand down Chi we can't hear you baby. Now repeat what you said."
"He da best daddy in the world." He made a gesture like the whole world.
"Aww." The crowd said behind me.
They were all surrounding me standing up watching the video. Some people were seated at the booths.
"Jazzy lets do you." Chi got up and walked toward the camera.
"Okay hold the camera like this." She showed him how to hold the camera, then went to sit in the chair.
"Wish daddy a happy birthday." Chi said behind the camera.
"Happy Birthday August!" Jazz waved. "Although by the time you see this you probably cussed my out."
Everybody laughed. She knew me too well. Am I that predictable? 😩
The camera went to Jazz and Chi. She was holding up her phone recording with Chi on her lap.
"Whose daddy favorite singer?"
"Da lady wit da hair?" He looked at jazz to see if he was right.
Jazz laughed.
"Yeah. Lauryn Hill. So what we gon do for daddy."
"Jazz, Chi I'm here."
I heard my voice in the background.
"We got to put it up. daddy here remember it's a secret." jazz told him.
He zipped his lips.
"What y'all doing?" You saw me at the door.
"Uh... Taking pics." jazz cut the phone off.
Everybody laughed. I remembered that day. I had no clue they were planning something.
The camera went to Jazz putting the camera up.
"So for Aug birthday. Chi and me got a surprise. What we gon do Chi? Come over here."
Chi came over.
"What we gon do Chi?"
"dance."
" right. And only one person can whip us into shape."
"DJ!" Chi said excited jumping up and down.
The camera went to Jazz and Chi standing at attention.
DJ walked across the camera in front of them with a cain.
"Up straight." DJ yelled.
They stood up straight.
DJ got in their face like a military sergeant.
" You want fame? ... Well, fame costs. And right here is where you start paying. With sweat." He mimicked Debbie Allen off the show fame.
"You rascals ready to pay the cost of fame?"
"Yes!!!!" Chi screamed laughing, jumping up and down.
"I didn't hear you." He got in Jazz face.
"Yes." She tried to be serious but busted out laughing.
"Bitch why are you laughing you messing it up." He kissed his teeth.
"Sorry." She covered her mouth and The camera cut off.
Then it went to DJ in front of them.
"Now watch me and repeat."
Lauryn Hill's DooWop started playing.
DJ did some horrible dance moves super fast.
"You too fast!" chi yelled.
"It's never too fast. You're too slow."
"Now do it." DJ looked at Jazz and Chi.
They tried to mimic his dance moves it was a hot mess.
"You bad." Chi said.
"Who can do it better?" DJ asked.
"Mommy!" Chi sAid jumping up and down.
The camera went to Princess. With DJ, chi and jazz in the back.
"Y'all ready?" Princess asked them.
"Yes!" Chi yelled.
Lauryn Hill's DooWop came on.
Princess did some moves asking them to copy her.
They did. But they were bad.
DJ fell on the ground.
"I need a water break."
"DJ." Princess looked at him.
"Y'all do it without me." He got up sweating.
They hadn't done anything for this nigga to be sweating. 😒😂
Princess did moves. Jazz and Chi copied.
Princess worked with each one of them.
"Alright y'all do it." Princess watched them while they did some of the moves.
"Y'all got it." She clapped.
"Hi five Chi." Jazz told Chi.
They gave a high five then did a hip hop pose in front of the camera.
"I didn't know they was cool." Knuck looked down at me.
"Me neither."
When did this happen?
The television screen went up and Jazmine came on stage.
"How y'all doing?" She smiled looking at the crowd.
"Great." The crowd screamed.
"So somebody called and broke up with me today because they thought I forgot their birthday. but that's Okay me and my Chi gon turn up anyway." She rolled her neck at me with an attitude.
"Shout out to Princess and DJ up top
Our choreographers." The spot light went to the DJ booth up at the top of the club.
They bowed. DJ was doing the most like he really did something.
"Princess told me I got to do this dance in these heels. Please lawd don't let me bust my behind." Jazz said.
The crowd laughed.
"But before we go any further I want to wish you a happy birthday August. Me and Chi worked hard. We hope you like it. chi come out baby."
Chi came out in a little black tuxedo.
"Omg he's so adorable." People said in the crowd.
"You wanna say something to daddy?"
Jazz asked him.
"Happy birthday daddy." Chi said into the mic.
"Thank you man." I blew him a kiss.
"You ready?" Jazz looked at him.
He folded his arm like a hip hop break dancer and shook his head yes.
"DJ drop the beat."
Jazz yelled.
Lauryn Hill DooWop began to play.
Jazz and Chi did their dance routine.
"Go Jazz. Go chi. go jazz. Go chi."
The crowd repeated cheering them on to the beat of the music.
T made whistling sounds.
It was the most special thing to see my lady and my son on stage. But to not only see that but to see her harbor no hate for Princess. It takes an amazing woman to do that, After being hurt so deeply.
Chi got off the stage and grabbed me by my hand to bring me up on stage. I picked him up and walked on stage.
I bent down and pecked Jazz lips looking at her like "imma devour the ass in that dress when we get home." 💦💋🍆
"I love you." She mouthed returning the look.
"Bring out the cake y'all." She said.
A huge cake with sparklers was rolled out from the back.
It had happy Birthday Aug on it.
Everybody cheered.
"I want to say something." Jazz took the mic. The crowd quieted down.
"First I want to thank you all for coming out to celebrate Aug's birthday.
Second I just want to say I know I don't express it often but Aug you mean the world to me. Their was a period that I went through that even though we got back together I was very hurt and angry. So I put up this emotional wall not to hurt you, but to protect myself. And I didn't see anything wrong with it until Trey saw our interaction backstage at my New York show. And he said Jazz if you forgive somebody you have to forgive them fully. You can't continue to beat them over the head with their past otherwise it's no point of being back together. And I know that was what I was doing for a while." She started to tear.
"I felt the love in my heart but I was too Angry to show it. And it was a process but what happened was Trey told me to put how I felt into my music. And so the title of my new CD is Dear August and it's basically my love letter to you. To tell you the things I couldn't say. My first track is a remake to Andre 3000's prototype."
The song started playing.
She started to sing.
I hope that you're the one
If not, you are the prototype
We'll tiptoe to the sun
And do thangs I know you like
[Hook]
I think I'm in love again [repeat]
[Verse 1]
Today must be my lucky day
Baby, you are the prototype
Do sumn' outta the ordinary
Like catch a manitee
Baby you are the prototype
I think I'm..
The crowd started to dance and clap to the beat as she sung to me. I knew after tonight things would get better for us.
Jazmine POV-
"How did you enjoy your birthday?" I kissed Aug's lips then laid my head in the crook of his neck with my leg over his.
We had just got done making love. We were now naked in his bed.
"Perfect." He kissed my forehead.
"Thank you for not giving up on me while I was healing. I'm sorry for treating you wrong sometimes." I started to tear.
He wiped my tearing eyes.
"Don't cry." He kissed my lips.
"I'm proud of you too. How good you been doing in school. "
"No I'm proud of you and how your career is going. We gon win a Grammy."
"We?" I asked smiling.
"Yes your Grammy is my Grammy." He chuckled.
I laughed.
"Were you surprised about me and Princess?"
"As hell. When that happened?"
"A couple of months ago. We had a long conversation. And we both realized if we're going to be Chi's life it doesn't benefit us to be clawing at each other. I explained my boundaries to her and I expect her to respect them."
"The only people I know who get along like that is Jada and Will ex-wife." Aug said.
"I actually read Jada's post she posted with Will Ex's wife, where she talked about how the process was long but they did it for the kids. And I don't want it to ever get to the point where I'm not in Chi's life ya know. And when we have our kid, I don't want Chi feeling we value our kid more than him. I want them to be equally loved."
"What you talking about our kid?" Aug asked me.
"You don't want a kid with me?"
"Hell yeah. But you said you didn't want to be a Yung Joc ghetto mess."
"Well welcome to fatherhood Yung Joc." I laughed.
"Quit playing."
"I'm serious."
He lifted his head looking at me shocked.
"Even with you on birth control?"
"Yes."
"Yes!" He got up on the bed doing the Nae Nae.
"August." I put the cover over my eyes. He was naked ya know. I don't want to see that swinging in my face. My face and his Calvin don't quite get along remember? 😂
He got on top of me and started kissing all over my face.
"Thank you for shooting her club up God." He did a prayer to the heavens.
"August get off of me." I pushed him off laughing at his foolishness.
He kissed my lips holding me close to him. "I been waiting for this forever."
"Me too." I said against his lips.
That led us into a round 2.
----------------
"What you over there cheesing about?" DJ asked me as we pulled up to the place where I had my photoshoot.
It was good seeing August at that Meet and Greet. I appreciated his support.
I wished him and his son well, but as for us being together, as Erkyah Badu said,
"I guess I'll see him next lifetime."
Because although I love him, cherish our memories and desire to be friends, I've made my decision and I'm sticking to it.
I'm loving my life and career. And I hope he takes the lessons he learned from me and treat the next one better.
And I until I meet Jidenna and he becomes my classic man, it's nothing wrong with day dreaming about Aug right?
😘😜

Luh y'all tho!!! 😍
