Intoxicated || An Eminem Fanfiction

Chapter 25

Leila POV

I walked through the foyer of Effigy, waving at the receptionist as she smiled at me, letting me through into the main offices and studios and made a beeline for Monicas office, passing a studio on the way.

"Lala"

I frowned backtracking "What are you doing here?"

"Denaun invited me to share some of my beats!" Alec said, voice laced with excitement.

Denaun nodded from next to him "Yeah Marshalls not in until later so I figured I could check them out and pass any the ones I like on to him"

"Get ready to see him fangirl like a 16-year-old" I joked rolling my eyes.

"I do not fangirl" Alec snorted.

"Good luck passing these beats on the fussy guts" I said with a small smile as I waved then continued to walk to Monica's office.

"Hey girl, won't be a sec" She said nodding to me as she finished on the phone.

I sat down pulling lunch out and sat it on the desk.

After finishing up she hung up the phone.

"Well, things have been crazy, Marshalls having personal half-day and won't be in till later and suddenly shit hits the fan"

Personal day?

Mr workaholic?

"Is he okay?"

"Oh yeah" She said and gave me a weird look "He's helping one of his daughters with something"

I nodded.

"So I see Alec is here" I said with a sly smile "Hows that going?"

"Your cousin is a kind-hearted funny man" She said with a smile "A little elusive emotionally sometimes but I understand he's busy"

"Elusive? Please that man is as transparent as glass"

She got up and closed the door and sat back down.

"Do you think he's into me?"

"He asked you out and you've bee on a couple of dates right, spent time together?"

"Well yes but in this day and age-"

"If he was just fucking you he wouldn't take you out to dinner, trust me" I said with a shrug "He actually had a range of emotions, when you get more comfortable together he'll show them"

"Ok, that's good... I think" she said with a nervous laugh.

"He hasn't been this interested in a woman for years, normally he's too busy fucking women and spending his money, but I guess you caught his attention, I'm happy for you both, I know I can't trust him to look after you and not break your heart, don't worry, trust me, he's into you"

She gave me a grin "I hope so, because, I'm really into him"

I was standing in the kitchen making dinner when I hear the front door open and close, and Alec's tall frame enters the room, throwing the keys on the bench sitting down.

"Wheres the fire?"

"He took some of my beats" Alec said in shock "Eminem liked my fucking beats, Lala, can you fucking believe that? Denaun just called me, said Marshall was excited to use them in an upcoming project"

"That's great, I'm so happy for you" I grinned spooning food into the bowl and placing it in front of him.

"I can't even believe it, I didn't even have the intention, Denaun kinda asked me out of the blue because Trick has said I produce beats as a hobby"
