Chapter 92 - Streamy Awards

A/N Warning: This chapter contains themes of intimacy.

Marshall's POV:

— Day Of The Streamy Awards

Today was Saturday, meaning it was the day of The Streamy Awards for Sadé, and me too since I was her plus one. We had an early start to our day, the both of us still working before even getting ready for the event. We did have breakfast together before going our separate ways though. She went to be a guest on someone's podcast whilst I went to Dre's studio in LA.

I had just entered the studio with my head security guard, Drew, following close behind me. Sitting inside were Dre and Boogie. There was no surprise that Boogie was here because he actually lives in Los Angeles, California, and occasionally works with Dre. He was just in Detroit for a year to finish his album at my studio, but this is where he resides with his family full-time. I enter the room and we all dap each other up, doing handshakes.

"What up, dawg! What you doin' out here in Cali?" Dre asked, sitting back down by the soundboard.

"Going to an award show with my lady. She invited me as her plus one." I explain, taking a seat on the couch, opposite of the two men.

"Oh damn. You must be really into her to be going out in public and shit then." Dre commented.

"Yup. I'm realllllyyyy into her." I say with a smirk on my face.

"This dude loves that girl. Really into her my ass." Boogie piped up, stating the obvious.

"Boogie, shut up. You talk too damn much." I grumble, smacking my lips.

I still don't like admitting it out loud to other people that I'm this deep into a relationship or that I'm in love with a woman per se. It feels strange and uncomfortable for me. Don't get me wrong, I'll throw this shit in a motherfuckers face. But it still flusters me from time to time despite me being a grown-ass man.

"Aye, I'm just saying." Boogie said quietly as he held his hands up defensively, "Anyways, aren't you supposed to be getting ready since you're going to an award show later?"

"Yea, but it's not starting until six this evening. So I still have a lot of time to kill. Plus, she takes forever to get ready. I'm not trying to be bored out of my mind for three hours until she's finished." I answered honestly.

Sadé is a cool girl - Love her style, love how she presents herself. It's classy and put together. However, she does take an extremely long time to get ready. I'm used to it, but I would still rather not wait. I'd rather be productive with my time or watch sports, to be honest. It's just the man in me.

"I know what that's like man. My wife is the same way: Taking her dear sweet time getting herself all dolled up for the day." Dre sympathized with a head shake and chuckle.

"So what are y'all up to today? working on some magic?" I curiously ask.

"Yea, man. We're working on some heat. Might have Snoop hop on it." Boogie said excitedly.

"Let me hear it!" I exclaimed, ready to tune into my favorite craft.

Dre started playing the beat to an untitled song. It had an R&B vibe to it, but I liked it. Then Boogie started rapping over it, but he only laid down a few bars so far. I liked it. I thought it would be great either on his next album or alone as a single.
