Los Angeles, CA-1984

After being signed to MCA Records, Gary got us an apartment, so I'm in my own room, wearing some shorts, a tank top, my necklace, and my hair in a messy bun, trying to relax and read, due to the loud music blasting in the living room. I sighed as I put my book down, I heard my door knock.

I went to answer the door to see Gary and 2 guys came in. "Uh... what's going on?" I asked.

"I'll explain later, where's the boys?" Gary asked.

"In the living room." I got up and pointed in the direction. I got my sweater and shoes on, we made our way to the guys' hotel room.

As Gary was talking to the 2 guys, he turned on the lamp and saw the guys with their dates half naked.

He started to yell and kicked the girls out, I was laughing my ass off, till I seen one girl was all up on Bobby. She looked at me then kissed Bobby then walked out.

"So, Soul Train dancers, huh?" I asked them as I seen the last girl leave.

"Aww don't be jealous, Lea Bear." Ricky was about to hug me till I pushed his chest to stop him. "Nah, I'm not jealous." I denied.

"Rizz," I got his attention, I pointed at his zipper and looked away, he got the point and zipped himself up.

"Okay, is there anywhere I can sit that wasn't tainted?" I looked at the five who winced nervously.

"I'll just stand," I huffed.

Gary began introducing us to the 2 men beside him their names are Khalil and Jeff, I leaned against the wall, saying that they're our security.

"Y'all gettin' us bodyguards or something?" Ralph asks.

"Y'all in charge of the kiddies?" Ronnie asks pointing at the two. "Y'all a little small, brother."

"You look too out of shape to be security, B." Mike comments and the guys laughed.

"This must be the tough one," Jeff comments.

"Must be." Khalil agreed.

"Alright guys, take it easy. These are a part of the team, they're working with us now." Gary explained.

"So whatever we tell them to do, that means they gotta do it?" Bobby asked.

"Hold on, young buck. We ain't butlers alright, just think of us as more like chaperones."

"Exactly, these guys are here to keep you guys out of trouble, and you need that kind of help nowadays," Gary explained. The fellas just laughed some more.

"Well, good luck with that, G," Mike comments the fellas laughed and Bobby dapped him up.

"Okay, first order of business, could y'all get our girls back?" Ricky asks and the guys agreed.

"Y'all are stupid," I just shake my head and went to walk out the room.

"C'mon, Kylea, we just playin'. No need to be in yo feelings," Bobby teased.

I turned around and faced him. "Bobby shut the hell up and work on your dancing, they're whack as you are." I flipped him off and went back to my room.

"Damn!" Ronnie dragged as the fellas laughed.

"Man, whatever," Bobby kissed his teeth and sat down on the couch.

We were in the studio as Ralph was in the booth singing his verse, I laid my head against the sofa, as the guys watched Ralph sing.

"Hey man, when they gonna let us hit the mic?" Mike asked facing me and Bobby.
