All the girls and I were coming back to California hungover but richer. "Alright I'll see y'all later." I said as I got my bags as the car drove off. I walk inside with my bags. "Ugh god I'm tired" I said putting my stuff down. As I wash my hands, I get a call from jimmy. "Hi baby." I said smiling. "Hey." He said smiling. "You look hungover." He said. "I am." I said. "Don't be mad at me but I'm in Hawaii." He said. "Why are you there?" I asked. "Brothers wedding party." He said. "I wish I was there." I said smiling. "You were in Miami my favorite place." He said as I smiled. "I went to a sex shop." I said as jimmy smiled. "What did you buy?" He said as I smiled. "A new whip handcuffs CBD lube edible lubes shit like that." I said. "No vibrator?" He said. "I got you I don't need one." I said smiling. "I miss you." He said. "I miss you too." I said eating pizza. "We will be around each other soon." I said. "I've been meaning to ask you what are you doing July 4th?" He asked. "I'm going to see the purge movie and go to Nikki's house for bbq." I said. "Can I come and join you?" He said. "Of course baby your welcome to join us." I said. "Are you shirtless?" I asked. "Yeah. I went swimming." He said holding the phone up. "Damn baby your boobs look bigger than mine." I said as he laughed.

I got off the phone with jimmy and I went to take a shower and rest for the evening. As I'm laying in bed watching a movie, I get a knock at my door. I get up and I see it's Sterling and Terrance. "Ugh." I said before walking back to my bedroom. I had assumed they left but they wouldn't stop banging on my door. It was getting to the point where I told them to go away. "Why are y'all here? Leave my apartment." I said. "Jay we just wanna talk." He said. "I don't want to now leave before I call the cops." I said b4 closing the door.

The next morning I was getting ready for a meeting with one of my business partners when once again there they were waiting outside my door. I walked past them ignoring them driving to my meeting/interview. Today was one of the biggest meetings I've had. I'm going to be working a major deal with one of the biggest sex toy companies in their marketing division. I can't afford to let anyone or anything mess this up for me. We were meeting at one of the most beautiful Italian  restaurants in LA. I walk in with my portfolio and I see all the major executives there and they are all women. Women of different races and age ranges. Afternoon ladies." I said coming to the table. "Jay it is wonderful to meet you." Mrs Lawrence said as I shook her hand. "Wonderful to meet you as well." I said. "Have a seat. I hope you don't mind we chose Italian." She said. "Not it all my boyfriend is Italian and I love places like this." I said smiling. "Alright everyone let's order first before we talk." One of the other ladies said. I look at the menu to figure out what I want. "Will one of you guys help me eat pizza if I order?" Tiffany said. "I can I love pizza." I said. After we ordered food and drinks, we get right to to business. "So jay?" Mrs Lawrence said. "We have seen your website and we like how your business model is set up." She said as we all looked at my business model and work I've done. "Thank you." I said sipping my drink. "Do you by any chance have a degree in business?" Tiffany asked. "I actually have 4 degrees. One in sales 2 in business and the other in stocks and the other one is for fashion." I said. "Impressive." Mrs Lawrence said. "You mentioned your boyfriend earlier." Tiffany said. "Yes." I asked confused. "Have you tried any of the products you made on him?" She asked. "Yes I have." I said smiling. "We enjoy testing them out on each other." I said. "Do you by any chance have samples?" Marie the other lady asked. "Yes I do." I said handing them to them. "There's chocolate, strawberries and champagne, buttercream and mint chocolate chip." I said handing them the samples as they tasted them. "These are delicious." Marie said. "They taste better on your significant other too." I said as we laughed. "I'm really impressed with you jay." Mrs Lawrence said. "Thank you." I said smiling. Dinner comes for everyone. As we are enjoying the meal, I get a call from jimmy. "Excuse me for a minute ladies." I said getting up leaving. "Hey baby." I whisper. "Hey how's the meeting going?" Jimmy asked. "It's going good We all are eating dinner now." I said smiling. "I'm proud of you baby." Jimmy said as I teared up a little. "Don't cry baby." Jimmy said as I blushed. "Thank you so much baby." I said.
I got off the phone with jimmy and went back to the table. "Everything ok?" Marie asked. "Oh yeah that was Jimmy." I said sitting down. "Would you like another drink jay?" Mrs Lawrence asked. "I'm good I have to drive home." I said. "Well we actually have come to a decision about you working with us." Mrs Lawrence said. "We decided we would like you to partner with us." They said as I smiled. "We will have your contract drawn up tomorrow you can go over it with your lawyer and we would also like to throw you a party welcoming your to the company." Marie said as I smiled. "Thank you guys so much for this opportunity." I said. "We can keep the samples right?" Marie asked as I laughed. "Yes you can." I said. The check for dinner came and I decided to pay it as a way of thanking them for hiring me.

I went home after the meeting on a high.
