Michelle was sitting in her closet trying to figure out what she was going to wear to a event she truly didn't want to attend. She had promised her best friend Joy she would go so she couldn't back out now.
Ring Ring Ring
Michelle : Hello
Joy: Bitch I know you better be ready I'm on the way...about 15mins I'll be there.
Michelle sighs
Joy: Girl I'm not playing with you...you promised. You know I can't get in this event without you! All you do is stay in the house unless you're working...you're going to turn into a old maid...all alone
Michelle: I just don't like these type of events...I'm a song writer...that's all...I feel uncomfortable around these arrogant celebrities...most are so fake and stuck up...If it's not business I keep my distance
Joy: Chelle you're talented and you've written music for some of the best...NEVER let these ppl make you feel uncomfortable or unworthy...your presence is just as valuable...you have atleast 6 hit songs that you've written on the top charts as we speak...fuck all the bullshit
Michelle: Ok, but I'm only doing it for you. I'm not dressing up either...J's and jeans and a little eyeliner is all you're getting out of me...
Joy: (laughing) ok girl I'll take what I can get. See ya in a minute hun smooches*Thee Event*
The girls pulled up to a private location, only given by invitation. Both girls where in awe of how beautiful the mansion was from the outside view. They could only imagine how amazing it was from inside.
The girls got out of their car, handing the keys to the valet as they approached the entrance of the beautiful mansion.
Michelle rang the door bell...
Loud music could be heard playing.
15 seconds later the door opened..."Your invitation please" the tall security guard asked. Michelle gave him her invitation. He eyed each girl up and down suspiciously then requested that they leave their cell phones with security. A requirement to attend the event. Each girl handed over their cell phone. The guard stepped aside and let the girls in.
Instantly michelle felt out of place. Famous models, rappers, actors and entertainers all stood around dressed fresh to death from head to toe. There appeared to be several different forms of entertainment going on all through the mansion. Models were in the pool. There was a stage performance going on...Music...food...everything you could think of...this event had it...Joy was in heaven...Being the outgoing one out of the two, she immediately blended in with the activities, leaving michelle to fend for herself. Michelle hated large crowds. She was the definition of a loner and introvert. People started to stare at michelle and her attire. Some chicks looked and laughed to each other about her rocking Jordans and jeans to a event with ballers in attendance. Feeling an anxiety attack coming on, Michelle ran to find the nearest restroom to get away from the noise and stares.
Walking as fast as she could with her head down, trying to get through the crowd she bumped into someone. Looking up to see who she bumped, she damn near had a heart attack. Standing in front of her was, August Alsina staring at her through his shades.
August Alsina: Damn shawty, watch out where ya goin. You almost made me waste my drink.
Michelle: I'm sorryy...I was...I was
Michelle hurried and walked away out of embarrassment. She found the restroom, locking herself inside..
Michelle started to do breathing exercises to control her nerves. She patted water on her forehead closing her eyes to try and calm herself.
About 15 minutes later after getting herself together michelle exited the bathroom.
Waiting at the bathroom door stood August.
August : So we meet again...
Michelle : I guess so...that or you're following me...Michelle said smartly rolling her eyes
August laughed
August : Could I use the restroom miss lady or are you going to try to knock me over again? August said playfully, holding his hands up as if he was surrendering.
Michelle sighed
Michelle: about that...I apologize... I really
August cut her off before she could finish her sentence. He smiled at her.
August: It's cool sweetheart...when you gotta go...you gotta go...it's understood
Michelle smiled
Michelle: Well here you go...the bathroom is all yours..
August smiled again
August: Preciate itMichelle walked the crowd again. She did not see Joy anywhere...she decided to go out into the backyard where the crowd was alittle less rowdy.
She found a quiet spot far in the back near a beautiful Lake front. The backyard was huge with a pool, basketball court, and tennis court. Beyond all of these things was a dock by a lake. No one was occupying this area so michelle chose this spot to sit and think until Joy was ready to go.The water calmed michelle. Instantly song lyrics came to her. She began to freestyle lyrics and sing.
(Singing)
"So many timesss I try to say goodbye. Addicted to your love I keep running backkk.. running backkk babyyy""You have a beautiful voice"
Michelle turned to see August posted against the dock.
Michelle: Ok, you're definitely following me.
August chuckled
August: "I swear I'm not". "Maybe it's fate"... he said seriously, taking off his sunglasses. Looking into her eyes.
August: Everywhere I go.. you're there...3 times in one night...face it...we're meant to talk.
Michelle: Possibly. I'm Michelle by the way. Michelle looked away breaking the intense eye contact August was giving her.
August shook her hand
August: Nice to meet you miss Michelle. I'm August. I'm sure you knew that though.
Michelle : Of course. So why are you out here? I'm surprised you're not enjoying the festivities. Seems like it would be your type of event.
August: Really? Why would you say that? He continued to stare intensely at her
Michelle: You know...beautiful women dressed from head to toe...that's normally every males type of event. She laughed.
August: Surprisingly, I'm not on that like you would think. Beautiful women are cool..but I've been there and done that...I'm actually a loner. I hate these things. I just come through to show my face for my homies, then I'm out.
Michelle: I'm a loner too, as if it's not obvious...I don't fit in here...not even a little bit...I wrote Blakes hit song that he's celebrating for. That's the only reason I was invited. But it's cool
August: Wait.....you wrote "I don't belong"?
Michelle: Guilty...that would be me
August: Dope..So you're a song writer solely or do you sing professionally? You have a beautiful voice.
Michelle: Just write. I would love to be a singer, but i'm to much of a introvert. Plus I'm not the typical heel wearing, weave and make up type of chick. I don't fit into the image needed to be in the forefront.
August: Nonsense, you're beautiful.
Michelle and August stared intensely at each other in complete silence
August: You know I feel comfortable with you...like I've known you...like we've met before...it's weird...tell me you don't feel it too.
Michelle: I feel it...it's kind of strange...but when the stars align...you have to just go with it
August smiled
August: Exactly...I have a feeling we're going to be very good friends...very good friends.... he repeated staring into her beautiful eyes..
This was only the beginning. He was sure of it
