Candy Girl Photoshoot/Live Performance

March, 1983

"I'm not riding that thing, Bobby." I crossed my arms as I walked on the sidewalk, Bobby was riding a motorbike, along with our friends.

"Come on, Kylea, it'll be fun," He asked with puppy dog eyes.

I glanced at the boys on their motorbikes, Zena was riding with Ralph, they were looking like they were having fun.

"No, I'll just walk," I declined and continued my walk home. Bobby got off his bike and picked me up. "Bobby!" I squealed.

"Let me down," I whined as he put me on the back of the bike and hopped on in front of me. "I ain't finna let you walk by yourself so it back and relax," He tells me, I wrap my arms around his waist tight as he starts the bike.

"This is ridiculous, and can you even ride this thing properly?" I asked cautiously.

"Roni, I know what I'm doing," He tells me with a 'duh' voice and Bobby speeds up, making me yell. "Bobby!" I smacked his back.

"Relax." He laughed, making me glare at him. "Are you trying to kill me??" I asked as his hand hovered over the accelerator.

"No-Maybe," Before I could say another word, Bobby sped up to catch up with the boys. We stopped in the middle of the walkway by Ralph and Ronnie. I got off the bike and sighed in relief.

"See, you are still in one piece." Bobby wrapped his arm around my shoulder and smirked.

"Barely." I fixed my hair and dusted myself off.

"Hey! Hey! You're on the radio!" A girl's voice called out from the top window.

New Edition's song 'Candy Girl' was blasting through the radio, and we and the neighbors began to celebrate. I sang along with the song as Bobby was dancing from behind me, as we laughed and danced.

"Kylea, be still." My mom sighed as she finished putting my hair in a curly ponytail.

"It's too tight, ma." I winced as she put a red bow on my head. I looked in the mirror, wearing a white dress, with white stockings, and red heels. 

"Kylea, let's go." I heard Brooke calling me. I walked out the room and sat down on the counter as the boys posed below me on both sides of me.

"You look beautiful, Lea." I heard Ralph whisper, I turned my head seeing him behind Bobby. I looked down at him and smiled. "Thank you, Rizz, you look nice yourself," I whispered back with a small smile.

"Maurice, which one of them is the lead singer?" The photographer asked Maurice.

"All of us are lead singer," Bobby responds as we all face the photographer and the producer.

"Ralph is the lead singer," Maurice told the photographer and ignoring Bobby.

"Ralph. Which one's Ralph?" The photographer asked.

"The one with the white jacket." Maurice points him out. The photographer came up and switched Ralph to the other side next to me. "Excuse me, Ralph, I need you to stand next to the young lady here."

Next, he switched Mike to where Bobby was as he moved behind him. "You with the hat, go on the other side over here."

We got posed for the camera. "Wait, what about-"

"Doesn't matter alright, you look perfect, it looks excellent." The photographer cuts off Ricky as he walks back to the camera.

"This bow is killing me," I mumbled as I scratched behind my bow. "Young lady, please be still." I looked up at the photographer. I sighed and put my hand down.
