What If? (Alternate Universe Story)

Caught?

"You think this is funny? Why don't you ever spit up milk on mommy? You be targeting me don't you?" I ask Riley.

She just looks at me smiling while I clean her face. It honestly makes me mad sometimes with how much she looks like Maddy. Like yeah she has my hair type. Every girl in my family does. Rue, Gia, etc.

And she's starting to act like me, somewhat, but everything else is Maddy. The looks and the attitudes is all her. All that work I put it in and she gets everything from her mom. Shit is so bogus.

"Hey." Maddy says.

"What's up?" I reply.

"I've been meaning to talk to you." She said.

"About?" I question.

"Your new relationship." She answered.

I chuckled thinking that she was about to say some bullshit. I was wrong. "It's not like that. I wanted to say I'm happy for you. I know we didn't work out but I'm glad you found someone that you do work with."

"Uh, thanks Mads but me and her aren't together." I say not expecting that.

"Could've fooled me by the way you show her off. But that's not even the point. I'm happy for you. That's all." Maddy responds.

I just smiled at her and continued playing with my daughter. It's good to know that she isn't a bitter baby mama. It's actually very refreshing to know that.

I sat back in the desk chair spinning around like a child. I had a meeting with some people from Atlantic. I wasn't really sure what about though.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. I've got big news for you." Devin, an Atlantic employee and my manager, said.

I stopped spinning immediately sitting upright in the chair. I looked at Devin waiting for him to continue.

"Your album is doing outstanding numbers. It sold 600K copies in the first week. But even higher numbers in its second week. We're talking a little over a million. It remains number one on every chart in the US. And in the top five in Canada, Germany, UK, and Mexico." He says.

No fucking way. My first album is number one. That's so crazy. There's some people in this industry that have been here for decades and have yet to reach this accolade.

"That's amazing." I say in shock.

Honestly I'm happy as fuck. I ain't think my rap career would take off like this. Real shit if it wasn't for Jaden begging me to do music again, I wouldn't even be here.

"Amazing it is. Your fan base is rising through the roof. You've received invites to multiple upcoming award shows. B.E.T, VMA's, Teen Choice, and Billboard. And Atlantic wants us to start discussing a possible tour." Devin goes on.

My phone vibrated a few times. Devin didn't hear it and kept going on about this so called tour. He had this whole presentation with all the information about it. While his eyes were glued to that I quickly checked my phone.

It was a couple texts from Lani. My eyes went back in forth from my phone to Devin. At this point I was just pretending that I was listening to the man.

It was a couple nude pictures and a very explicit video. I kept my phone under the table looking back up at my manager, who was still going on with the PowerPoint.

I made sure my volume was turned down before playing the video. It was that long but it did turn me on. I shifted in my seat uncomfortably as I felt myself becoming hard.
