Kiyanne's POV: May 2014
I graduate in about 2 months and it's really exciting. While people had the option of taking using their summer to vacate and chill. I used mine to get ahead. So I'm techniquely in my Senior year at LSU.
Since we got spring break right now I'm back in the city and I'm home with my family for 4 weeks. Odell, Jarvis, and Jeremy are all going to enter in the draft. And as of now my mom, Odell, Heather, Odell's mother and I were all around in SoHo. As our moms were shopping around, we were talking.
Odell: babe I'm so nervous.
Me: why are you nervous?
Odell: because I don't know if I'm the the top 15 or the last 15.
Me: babe your going to get in no matter what. Any team would be lucky to have a wide reciever that broke the all purpose yards at their school only in their junior year.
Odell: your right but I love it when you can pull me out that slump.
We were walking into a coffee shop to meet with his agent. I guess you can say that I was more excited than he was.

Odell's POV:
We walked into a coffee shop down in SoHo. I looked around for my Agent only to find him in the middle of the shop.
Me: Ryan Morgan.
Ryan: Beckham.
Me: this is my girlfriend Kiyanne, Kiyanne meet my agent Ryan.
They shook hands and he had no problem jumping straight into business.
Ryan: so you just made the biggest decision for yourself and family, do you have any idea on who you would want to play for?
Me: definitely the Saints. But if it's not them then any team would be just fine.
By the time the meeting was over he became like family. I put my career in his hands. I thank god for giving me this opportunity.
Ryan: as your representative for all things business, I'll make your life easy. Just don't fuck anything up. As for your personal appearance I think you should get a publicist. I'll pass you Matt McCarthy-
Kiyanne: Matt McCarthy is my families publicist.
Ryan: really well what is that you and your family do?
Kiyanne: I am a independent rapper and singer my mom & dad are signed recording artists. I'll call Matt and see if he's able to come meet with him.
Me: was he there when we did the family sports day thing.
Kiyanne: yeah you've meet him a few times.
Ryan: that's great, so I'll um pass you his information and give him a call. You guys can set up a meeting quickly and I guess that's settled.
Odell: okay.
Ryan: it was nice meeting you guys.
Kiyanne: likewise.
She grabbed my hand and we walked out. Love it when she's in Boss mode. It's crazy how we have the same publicist now.
Me: you coming with me to this event?
Kiyanne: yeah.
Me: you sound more nervous than I do.
Kiyanne: that's because I want the best for you. But I just know your going to be draft in the top 15.

Audrey's POV:
I was bonding with Heather. Me and her are similar in ways that people can't see personality wise.
Heather: was it weird when you first met Odell?
Me: a little bit. Because she never said anything about him or that they were coming over. Then we seen how athletically gifted he was was from playing baseball and football with us.
Heather: everybody says that but I don't know where he got the skills to play basketball or soccer or even baseball. Football and Track & Field I can say did come from me and his father.
We walked into the store that Odell has ordered Kiyanne's engagement ring from.
Heather: I'm so excited for them.
Me: I know. But hey I say he should do it after the draft.
Heather: why?
Me: we're doing a congratulations party in a few days. Your side is invited.
Heather: what about Shaq?
Me: that's the surprise.
My phone started vibrating in my back pocket, it was Kiyanne.
Me: hello?
Kiyanne: can you call Matt?
Me: what did you do?
Kiyanne: it's not for me. It's for Odell.
Me: what did he do?
Kiyanne: his manager is referring him to Matt as his publicist.
Me: ohh. I can do that. And I know you guys are going to be busy all day tomorrow so I'll set the meeting for the day after.
Kiyanne: kay love you.
Me: love you too.
I hung up the phone and waited on Heather. She finally picked up the ring and showed it to me. And my son in law has amazing taste. We went into a few more stores before we went back to the house.

August POV:
I was just getting in and seen Kiyanne's car sitting in the drive way. I guess they came back from a city trip with their moms. I know Kiyanne is more stressful than he is and I don't know why. But if their one then he's my son.
Me: I'm home.
Kiyanne: in the living room!!!
I walked toward the living room to see Odell and Kiyanne on the couch. When I'm thinking like they should be getting ready for the Draft.
Me: hey!
Odell: sup!
Me: shouldn't y'all be getting ready for the draft?
Kiyanne: yeah.
Me: so why yall slacking?
Odell: we're waiting on my mom.
The door opened and laughter filled the hallway.
Kiyanne: I'm going first.
Kiyanne started walking up the stairs to her room. As for Odell he was just sitting there.
Heather: we got the ring.
Yes I do know that he wants to propose to Kiyanne and I support it. I mean we talk all the time. He's like the third son I always wanted. And I'm close to getting that.

Kiyanne's POV:
I got out the shower and put on my basketball shorts and a t shirt. I'm not ready to get dressed yet especially since we don't have to leave until 6:30. And it's 3:45 now.
I began doing my make up for tonight. I should've called Jonathan but he's busy doing his make tour. After doing my make up, I stepped into my all black jumpsuit and began doing my hair. I walked into my bathroom only for it to be extra steamy.
Odell: bae that's you?
Me: yeah it's me.
I left the door open to let the steam out so I can do my hair. I got out hair spray and my flat iron. The water then shut off and out came Odell. I bit my lip at the sight I had. Pure sexiness.
Odell: change.
Me: why?
Odell: your ass is mad phat in this lil jumpsuit.
Me: if I change we'll be late. And your mom and dad don't like to be late.
Odell: your right. But the change will be good.
Me: some times it's good to show off what you got.
Odell: alright. But trust I will be walking behind you.
Me: that's the way I like it anyway.
He walked out the bathroom and into my room to change. I did a quick faux hawk. Sprayed it down and applied red lipstick, I walked back into my room grabbed my blazer, only to see Odell ironing his shirt.
I then walked into my closet and picked out the classic nude Louboutin pumps and a matching nude wallet. My outfit was complete.
I walked back into my room only to get started down hard by Odell.
Odell: baby come here.
Me: yes my love?
Odell: member how you always wanted to button my shirts up and I never let you?
Me: yeah.
Odell: come do that for me today, please.
Me: alright.
I walked up to him and began buttoning his shirt. And tieing his bow tie. He looks so adorable. We went down stairs to see his mom and my mom talking and my dad eyeing me to hard.
Dad: what do you have on.
Me: black and nude.
Mom: before we have this argument she's not in high school any more August. She done graduated from that phase.
Dad: not when her butt is looking bigger than what it already is.
Mom: if anything happens Odell got that covered you act like he's not there.
Dad: not uh nope I'm calling Dave he's your body guard for tonight.
Me: your doing to much.
Dad: it's only because I love you.
I hid behind Odell. And waited for the Über driver to get here. Aubrey & AJ soon came downstairs wishing Odell luck.
Aubrey: good luck big brother!!
Odell: thanks lil one.
AJ: one thing.
Odell: wassup AJ?
AJ: promise me that you can get a few work outs in with me in the off season with some teammates once you picked.
Odell: you know I got you.
