The Plug's LifeLine

Chapter 4: HIM

Over the next few weeks, Pax and I started conversating more over the phone, linking up to hang out and go on lil dates but had not been intimate.. only kisses and hugs at this point.. I started liking him more than I expected and literally had to see his face or hear his voice each and every day..

Spending time wit Pax had become one of my most favorite things to do aside from making my music.. Once Pax found out that I was a musician, it's like he became my own personal manager.. He made sure that I had the best of everything from the recording studios to the make-up artists.. There was nothing that was out of reach for him.. He had connections on top of connections and they were all beneficial.. 

Pax knew that he had to keep it real wit me by any means because that is the 1st official agreement we made when we called ourselves dating.. I still remember the conversation word for word and every detail.. 

"So, the only way I know to be is real and straight forward, and I just ask for the same respect.." I said..

"I feel ya on dat shawty.. and I wouldn't give ya nothin less, because I treat people how I wanna be treated unless they cross me den it ain't no remorse.." he replied..

"Ok.. so I don't wanna be all in yo business, but if Ima be dealin wit you on anotha level, I jus need to kno a few small details.. is dat cool??.." I asked..

"Yea, fa sho shawty.. ask me anything.." he responded..

I was very confident that he would be truthful with my questions but I figured I could tell if he was bullshytin or not..

"Ok, 1st question, are you single single, or do you have a lady or female that your with aside from me??.."

"No, I ain't in no relationship, Ion have no lil piece of ass waiting on me or nothin like dat shawty.. You got a man or something, cus I ain't fit to be no side Nicca!!.." he said laughing at his own joke..

"Absolutely not, I just moved here and you're like one of the 1st people I met, and I definitely didn't have a man when I was back home, so you have nothin to worry about..

"Ion care or worry bout other Niccas shawty,, I kno wat I bring to tha table.. Straight up!!" he replied..

"Ok, now that we've gotten that out of the way.. next question.. Wat do you do fa a living??.. Like I see you taking care of everything.. when we are out together, you won't let me pay for anything.. so how you makin' dem ends??.." I asked, slightly nervous that I would get an unexpected answer..

"Shyt Simple, I'm tha Plug Babi!!" he said..

"Tha Plug??" I repeated "Well wat you pluggin babi??" me sounding naïve as ever..

He laughed so hard he almost started choking..

"Wats so funny??!!" I asked knowing that I must've said something dumb as hell..

"You is babi, I forgot you from a small town, but damn I kno people do drugs wea you from!!.." he said..

"Oh yea, but growing up my momma banned me from goin to a lot of bad areas around town.. and I never wanted to get grounded so I obeyed her wishes.. There was this one time this guy was in the supermarket and he was on something called "Crack" and the local sheriff had to taze him and arrest him.." I explained, noticing that he was so amused wit my lack of knowledge on the subject..

"Well shawty lemme tell ya like dis, if ya need it, I got it, and if I don't got it.. if yo money right, I'll get it!! Simple as that.." he explained..

"Ohhhhhhh ok, I think I understand now, You tha MAN!!" I said and we both burst out laughing..

"Yea, you can say dat shawty, I'm tryin ta be YO man doe, wat you say to dat??" he asked

"I say that I would be honored to be yo Lady!!.." I responded giving him the sweetest kiss ever knowing that I meant every word that I said!!..

And just like that I had me a new Man!!..
