Alexi...

I put my phone down as I looked out of the window, I couldn't look at Diggy.

"What's wrong Lexi? " he asked as he glared over at me then back at traffic.

"Nothing, you just caught me by surprise that's all... so, what were you thinking about?"

"Nothing much for real. Just how calm you were with me and how you handled me and also helped me. I didn't realize it at the time but, you kept me sane that day even though I was being a jerk."

"Well that doesn't sound like "nothing much" it sounds like a bit much!"

"Yea I guess you can say that. The question is, whY did you help me? I mean you work with Nicki Minaj bringing in the big bucks, you didn't have to deal with me."

"It's not about that Diggy. I mean don't get me wrong, the money is good and all but it's about seeing people happy. Knowing that I put that smile on their faces using my talent is what it's about."

"Alexi putting a smile on everyone's face. Tell me this, who's putting a smile on your face? " He asked as he parked the truck.

"Alexis" I responded as I pointed to herself. "Well maybe one day that'll change. Maybe one day someone else will put a smile on your face,maybe one day soon."

"Yea well when that day comes Diggy Simmons, you'll be the first to know." I said with a smirk on my face.

"Ok we're here! " he said, I looked up to see that we were in the back of a bakery shop.

"The bakery shop?"

"Yea"

"What are we doing here?"

"We will be baking cookies,cakes and brownies. We will be giving them to the homeless. They do this twice a month, and since it's cold out we serve them hot chocolate to keep them warm" he said as we walked through the back door.

"Awww that is so sweet! I love giving back!" I said as I looked around the kitchen. It was pretty cool. Good staffing, clean and it smelled so good!

I was introduced to the staff and they immediately put us to work. Me and Diggy washed our hands, put on the plastic gloves and an apron. Since I knew how to bake I wad moved over to the ovens while Diggy was on the other side frosting the cupcakes. It was so busy in the kitchen, I can't recall the last time baked this much let alone spend this much time in a kitchen.

I would occasionally look across the room at Diggy as he chatted with colleagues while working, his smile was everything to me, that is until he caught me looking at him. I immediately looked away and finished my baking process.

"I saw that" said a tall dark skinned man with a curly ponytail. He caught me off guard.

"Excuse me, saw what?" I asked grabbing a pan full of cupcakes out of the oven.

"You like him don't you?" He asked as he put a pan in one of the three ovens.

I was baffled by his question.

"Don't worry, he likes you too" he looked in Diggys direction.

"Excuse me?" Was all I could say.

"Get him he's a good guy. Get him before someone else does or you'll regret it." After he said that he looked at me one last time then walked away leaving me with a crazy look on my face.

I looked over at Diggy one last time before the oven buzzed then I shook off what was just said to me.
