Kehlani POV
Next Day

I decided to wake up earlier in the day to write the next couple of lines for my song. I was engulfed in the comfort of my bed as I brainstormed.

Down to do anything
yeah down for whatever
kids on th-

"kids on the... kids on the." My eyes subconsciously closed at my writers block.

"What the fuck are the kids finna be on."

"kids on the bed.. nah"
"kids on the duh duh"

My eyes rolled at my failed attempts of writing song lyrics. I quickly shut my notebook and went to my phone.

Sometimes like right now, I find it hard to write. I'll be in a flow then suddenly I get stuck.

I searched up the music store owned by the girl I met yesterday and searched for the store hours.

Saturday: 8:30 am - 6 pm

Perfect. It opens in 30 minutes. After some quick contemplating I decided that it was a good idea to text Y/n before I surprised her with my arrival.

I went to my contacts and typed up a quick message

keh: hey i'm finna swing by the store in 30

Checking the time I saw that I had quite a while before the store opened. I put on my shower shoes and got all my necessary things to go in the community bathroom.

Before I left my dorm I checked my phone to see if the taller girl had responded. But only notification I got was from Destin asking if I could braid his hair. I sent a quick maybe and made my way to the store.

...

'Oh this hoe is nice on the inside'
I mumbled to myself as I entered the building. It was somewhat small but was filled with a lot of different items.

I was drawn to the wall of guitars and their bright colors. I've always wanted to learn how to play but never had the money to get one.

I lightly played with the stings of a black acoustic  guitar while it was still on the wall and attempted to make a melody. My thoughts were cut short when I heard something drop behind me.

When my head turned I was met with brown eyes and a wide mouth. "Uh Hey um I didn't know you would be here this early."

I took in Y/n's appearance, as she walked. She dripped out from head to toe in UCLA gear. My lips quirked up into a quick smile when I noticed that Y/n was also wearing bear slippers.

"I see you take pride in your sisters school." The taller girl chuckled as she looked down at her attire.

"Yeah you know I gotta represent." She said as she dusted off her shoulders which made me laugh.

"I was planning on staying closed today but I couldn't say no to helping you out." The girl announced as she made her way to the front door. I watched as she locked the door and slightly turned the blinds down.

"Alright so what exactly are you looking for." I quickly pulled my phone out and showed her my long list that I curated in my notes. When I handed her the phone her eyes got wide.

"Damn girl, you need some expensive shit." Her eyes bounced side to side as she read over my list. She mumbled lowly and would pick her eyes to scan the store.

"Okay so what's your budget. I got a lot of this stuff but like I said the shit is expensive." I nodded my head and bit my lip slightly.

"I just wanna start small and slowly build up." She nodded her head and handed me my phone back.

"I could um create a cheaper list for you." I released my lips from my teeth when I realized the taller girl was looking at them. "I'd like that Y/n. For right now I really just need headphones and a microphone"

"So you're a singer I'm guessing." My head nodded in response.

"Yeah, I'm really into with R&B. I'm tryna figure out how to make my own my beats and shit so I don't have to wait on some on else to make something for me."

"My best friend Dani actually does some of that shit. I'm sure she'll give you cheap prices or teach you."

My eyebrows raised. Maybe Destin is right, I need to wife this girl up or something so I can get some connections.

"That'll be ni-." I was cut off with loud banging at the front door. "Y/N MOTHERFUCKING HILL. OPEN THIS DOOR BEFORE I CUT OFF YOHR DICK."

Y/n excused herself and opened the door. A short lightskin girl entered with a bag of Chic Fil A and a bag.

"Dani bro chill the fuck out." I watched their interaction from afar. I don't think the girl has seen me yet because her attention was on Y/n the whole time.

"Bitch, you at like you were fucking a girl you brought home." The girl took her shades off and handed the food the Y/n. Y/n seemed to me trying to tell the girl a story with just her eyes but failed as the girl continued to loudly talk.

Y/n's attempts appear to be short lived when she sighed with defeat. She had now began to rummage through the paper bag filled with food.

Dani had picked up a fork from the bag and began to lightly bounce from foot to foot as she talked.

"You know Y/n it's about time you get some. Being single for as long as you have is sad but you cou-." Her rant was cut short when she finally connected her eyes with mine.

Her brown eyes trailed my body slightly before she reconnect our eyes again. "There is no way Y/n actually pulled you yesterday."

Before I could speak up Y/n started coughing, me and the loud girl both turned our attention to her."She's a singer Dani. Needed some equipment."

Dani averted her eyes back towards me and flashed a sly smile. "You've came to the right place then." I smiled at the girl and nodded my head.

"Y/n and I are really producers on the low. She just don't wanna admit it." My eyebrows raised at the new found information.

Being close with these pair of friends will be very beneficial to my career. "Don't listen to her, I just play a couple of instruments." The tall girls stamens made Dani let out a hushed whatever.

"Do y'all think you could help me with a song."
