"No time for flirting Ci!" My manager laughs making me laugh while I get a straw ready ang I watch him pull up through the drive thru window.
"Hi," I smile making him smile as I give him his straw.
"Hi how you doing?" He smirks making me blush.
"Kinda in the middle of a rush," I say leaning out the window.
"What time you get off?" He asks.
"Not until eight why?" I smirk making him laugh.
"There's this party tonight and I was wondering if you wanted to come.. a friendly invitation."
"I can bring my friends right?" I ask making him laugh.
"Fasho. I expected you to. No female goes to a random party without they friends," He laughs.
"Here C," My manager says handing me his drink.
"Here you go," I hand his drink out to him.
"How much?" He asks pulling out a stack.
"Gangstaaaa I got it though. Don't even worry about it. Gimme your phone real quick, I'm gonna give you my number."
He quickly takes his phone out and unlocks it. I go straight to his phone app and put my number in.
"Let me know what time and where. I'll slide."
"Word?" He raises his brows.
"Word," I nod giving him his phone back.
"Aight, I know you got mad cars behind me and I dont wanna hold up the line so I'll see you later tonight."
"Later," I laugh shaking my head.
"Later," He laughs before pulling off.
"So that's the guy you're daydreaming about?" My manager asks.
"He's cute isn't he?" I ask.
"Ciela you have a boyfriend," She laughs.
"I can still think he's cute. He just invited me to a party. And i'm bringing my friends."
"Did you tell him about Anthony?" She asks, "Just don't do nothing you won't regret," she says before going to help a customer.
8pm
After getting out of work I went straight home. I ended up falling asleep for about an hour until I woke up at 8 to my phone ringing.
"Hello?" I groan answering the phone.
"Your sleepy voice so cute awww," Bashar teases making me laugh.
"I had to get my sleep in before this party," I say making him laugh.
"I feel youuuu took a nap too," He trails off, "Party's in Brooklyn at RPM."
"Aight and i'm bringing two other girls with me so.."
"That's cool, they single?" He laughs making me laugh.
"Very," I say.
"Definitely tell em slide for my bros."
"Can't stand you!" I laugh making him laugh, "Ima let you know when we there."
"Later," He says.
"Later."
After getting off the phone with him, I went straight to the shower. Once I got out, I lotioned up.. oiled up.. the whole shabam!
I put on light makeup. Lashes. Lipgloss. I threw on a all black palm angels sweatsuit outfit with balenciaga s and my monclear coat. To accessorize, my big ass shades for no reason.
"Ohhhh girl I cant wait to see what this nigga look like!" My friend Amiri says making me laugh.
"And she getting all dressed up to go see him and shit we going to a go karting place. Don't worry sis when we get there introduce us and you won't see us until the event end. We ain't gon cockblock baby," My other friend Ella says making me laugh.
Both Ella & Amiri were three years older than me. The same age as my older brother Malik. They're the older sisters I never had.
"Of course I gotta look good. I'm bout to pull up to a place with mad females. Full of mad niggas. Just mad people in general. And I dont know him bro. I just met him, so there could be females up on him and shit.." I say putting my phone up on the bathroom sink as I recurled my hair, "Gotta stand out," I laugh making them laugh.
"I hope he ain't one of those..treeshes," Ella says putting on lipgloss.
"Facts yo," I say, "He seemed like he wasn't that type of person though.. I don't know," I put on mascara, "I'll be outside in ten love yah bye."
"Bye love you, see you!" Amiri says.
"Bye love you!" Ella says before we all hang up.
"Ci, we're leaving Cam's gonna lock the door. Don't open the door for no one alright?" My mom says knocking on the bathroom door.
"Alright ma."
"Love you bye."
"Later love you," I say.
After listening closely for my parents to walk out the door I came out the bathroom. Grabbed my purse and my keys off my bed and went downstairs.
"Not a word papi," I say to my brother, "I'm gonna order you pizza in an hour. I'll be back before the parents get home."
They were going out to one of their friends parties over in Manhattan.
"My friends are coming over so order extra C por favor," He laughs making me laugh.
"Who?" I ask rubbing my lipgloss in my lips.
"Damien and Chris annnnnd Jahlil's coming."
"Alright but when you hear them knock on the door or ring the bell. Call me—."
"Stay on the phone til they get in the house yeah yeah I know go! I'm fine!" He laughs.
"Alrighttttt," I scurry around the kitchen looking for my house keys, "Love you i'll call you later," I kiss his cheek before leaving.
"Cielllaaaaaa!" He groans making me laugh, "Your lipgloss!"
10:45pm
"I'm nervoussss whew," I say as we all get out my car and start walking to the entrance.
"Girl i'm nervous for you, what he even look like?" Ella asks.
"Dark skin. Fine as ever," I say making them laugh.
"What his friends look like?" Amiri asks.
"Girl, I don't know!" I laugh making her laugh, "I just met him not even 24 hours ago!" I laugh more.
We walk into the place seeing that it was packed. I mean it was deep in there for no reason. It's never packed here unless it's the weekend.
I spotted him and he spotted me from a couple feet away. He was in the bowling section with a other people.
"I see him.." I say.
"Him right there with the blue shirt on?" Ella asks, "Oh girl, you got taste cause he fine," She laughs making me laugh.
"He a hood nigga I can tell," Amiri says, "Where he from?"
"Canarsie," I say as we watch him walk up to us.
"A BROOKLYN NIGGA!" Ella widens her eyes looking at Amiri, "Oh they is different different."
"Worddd!" Amiri says making me laugh.
"How you doing," He smiles before hugging me.
"Hey," I say hugging him back, "These are my girls Amiri and Ella," I introduce.
"Nice to meet yah," He says holding his hand out to shake theirs, "I'm Pop."
"Nice to meet you too," They both say.
"Come on though, we got the VIP section," He says leading the way.
"You say that like it's a club," I laugh as he laughs.
"YEERRRRRRRR!" Some guy says running past me almost making me trip; I grip onto his inner arm as Pop grabs me.
"Are you okay?" Pop asks looking down at me then at the guy.
"Yeah yeah i'm good but damn!" I say looking back at my friends.
"You so little you gotta stay close," He says making me laugh as we continue to walk to the section.
When we get there, there were about ten guys. And a handful of females. They were dancing to the music and bowling.
