I walked off the bus and smiled. Since they dropped me off close to home, I walked the rest of the way to my house.

I grabbed my key and walked inside. "Mama? Hello?" I called as I looked around. I put my bags down and went to go look for her, I furrowed my brows and decided to unpack.

I washed up and changed into some sweats, a white tank top, and some Jordans, with my hair in a bun.

I went back outside and saw a tour bus pulling up. I smiled wide and ran up to the bench in front. The fellas walked out. "Damn, they got taller," I mumbled as they grabbed their bags.

"New Edition!" I yelled. They turned fast and looked shocked. "Got nothing to say?" I grin as I crossed my arms.

I walked up to them. "Y'all got...eh," I joked.

"So did you, shorty." Mike pushed me playfully then pulled me to a hug.

"I missed y'all so much." We pulled away. Me and the fellas were catching up, till someone caught my eye.

"Hey, Lea." Ralph says with a smile.

I blushed and looked down. "Let's give these love birds some alone time," Bobby smirked as he and the others went over to the apartments.

"Ralph. You got taller." I pointed out.

"That's it?" Ralph places his hand over his heart dramatically. "Here I thought my best friend missed me like I missed her." He walked off slowly, I giggled and hopped on his back.

"Stop that." I laughed as I nuzzled my head in his neck. "You know I missed you, Rizz."

We pulled away and he twirled me around. "Damn," He muttered.

"What?" I tilted my head.

"Nah, it's just you look... beautiful." He grabbed his bag. "So do you-" I caught in what I just said and Ralph raised his brows with a smirk. 

"I-I mean you look great. You look great--That's what I said," I rushed with my face turning red.

"Thank you, Lea." He laughed as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder. "How was y'all tour?" I asked as we walked to the apartments.

"It was cool, got to see new places other than O.P., and a lot of girls were screaming my name." He winked. I rolled my eyes. "You weird." I shake my head.

"Oh come on, like no other guys were screaming your-"

"Some were but none interest me like someone," I shrugged.

"Someone like who?" Ralph asks with his brow raised.

"Huh?" I looked up at him.

"You heard me, someone, like who?" Ralph asks sounding...Jealous.

"Rizz, I was joking and besides you should be worried about your girlfriend, she's been asking about you," I mentioned Zena and his face dropped.

"I'll talk to her later, I wanted to catch up with you," Ralph tells me but I shake my head. "Go to Zena first then we'll catch up," I gave him a quick hug then walking back to my place.

"Y'all fired Brooke?" I asked my mom as we walked to Mike's apartment to meet our "new manager"

"Kylea, listen-"

"And you just now telling me this?!" I exclaimed. "Mama, why?" I asked.

"No money was coming in, neither was the boys. We decided to get you kids a new manager that-"
