"Ace! My boy, you are killing it out there as always!"
I cheesed as I watched my whole team cheer for me as I stepped off the stage. It's been a minute since I've been out on the stage, so it definitely feels good. Especially with this being the first show of my solo tour! I knew that this was my moment; my name up there in lights. Not behind anyone else's.
The Heartbreaker Tour. Yeah I had a ton of inspiration for the name.
"Yooo I'm feeling super good out there man." I cheesed as I fixed my earpiece in my ear. A bottle of water was passed over to me and I quickly chugged it down.
Scooter placed his hand on my back and fist bumped me with the other hand. "Ace, this is gonna be a great tour. You're killing it already, keep that energy high."
Scooter clapped my back. "Ace, this is gonna be a great tour. You're killing it already — keep that energy high."
"I got you," I said, grabbing a cold towel from Jasmine — my new assistant.
She watched me with big, shiny eyes, like she couldn't believe she was breathing the same air as me. When I winked at her and said, "Thanks, Jas," she damn near melted.
Her fingers slid over my forearm, slow. "N-no problem, Ace."
Here we go.
"Mannn you just slept with that woman and now you're in this girls face? I thought you said Ariana was who you wanted?" I heard Ethan say from the behind me.
Soooo, about that. A week passed since the talk with Ariana.
We texted. We called sometimes. We kissed once in the hallway of her building — soft, slow, too short.
She still wanted to "take our time."
I wanted to take her to bed. But I respected it... mostly.
I mean if you were in my shoes you would probably feel the same way. It's been a little over four months now since we had any type of sexual contact. Shit, I guess I just missed her, and the way she feels. But hey, as promised- I'm keeping my hands to myself until I get the green light.
Tonight was the first show of my solo tour. Not gonna lie, I wasn't even sure if there was gonna be a tour at all. Just because I didn't know if i even wanted this shit anymore. But after some time passed, and good conversations with CeCe and I knew it was what i needed.
I glared at his big forehead ass and rolled my eyes. "Uh first- mind your business- second, she IS who I want. Nothing about that has changed egg head."
He smacked his lips and turned his head towards Cliff- looking between the two of us. "Yo did you guys hear about that rooftop pool party?"
We both nodded and I sighed. "Yeah, it's at my hotel tomorrow night. I wasn't gonna go.. but by the look on y'all's face i can tell you gonna try and convince me different."
