Marshall's POV:

I wake up the next morning not really feeling in the mood to go anywhere today if I'm being honest. But I still have to drop off Hailie's headphones.

I check the time on my phone to see that it's almost 1pm.

Shit.

I was supposed to have been up if I was gonna go anywhere. I need to hurry up and get ready.

I head to the bathroom and do a quick morning routine. Brush my teeth, wash my face, and take a quick shower. I get dressed in some black joggers, a white shirt, and a black sweatshirt.

I check the time - 1:34pm

I check the time - 1:34pm. I hurry and grab my hat, jewelry and put my shoes on. I grab the headphones and head to the garage. I get in the black Escalade and start driving.

At Hailie's House

I park in Hai's driveway and get out the car. I walk up and open the door, entering the house. I don't even bother knocking because she knows I'm coming. Plus, I have a key anyways.

I walk into the house, calling her name but can't find her.

"Hailie! Where you at girl? I got ya headphones."

I see her popping her head out of the corner of my eye, turning my head I then see her walking out the living room.

"Dad, finally! It's almost 2pm and Sadé is gonna be here any minute." She sighs a breath of relief.

"My bad honey. I got caught up" I just say.

I walk in the kitchen and grab me a bottle of water.

"So are you nervous?" I ask, looking over at her from across the counter.

"Very. I could barely sleep last night."

"Don't be. You got this. I guess I should get going then huh?"

"No! I actually was hoping you could stay... Maybe meet her and watch us do the podcast." She seems quite hesitant, which makes me hesitant.

"You sure? I don't mind." I reply, furrowing my eyebrows.

"Yea, I'm sure. It'll actually ease my nerves if I know you're there."

"Okay cool." I take my last drop of water and throw away the bottle.

Just then, the doorbell rings. Hailie & I just stare at each other. It must be Sadé. I wave my hand for her to go answer the door after staring at each other with our eyes wide open for what felt like eternity. I know why Hai was at a loss for words, but me - I have no clue. This isn't even my shit that I'm doing. And she's just a regular girl that does social media for a living. But I guess because it's a big deal to Hailie, that it's a big deal for me too.

After getting lost in my thoughts for a minute I straighten myself out. As I look up, I see Hailie walking back with the biggest smile on her face and a woman walking behind her, Sadé.

She was dressed in this denim outfit, with white boots, holding a Louis Vuitton. She had pretty brown tan skin, and big brown eyes. Her hair, straight. She was short & petite, and she carried herself with grace. She looked to be around mid to late 20s. I'd say 26-28 years old. And let me tell you, she was gorgeous. And I, was infatuated.

Okay guys, this is chapter 2! I'm not sure if the chapters are long enough or not so let me know, and also let me know what you guys think 🤔 Next chapter we'll be getting a new pov 🫶🏾
