Rita POV
Chris hasn't talked to me today. I was in the studio when he finally called me. I smiled when I saw his name pop up on the screen.
"Hello?"
"Hey, what you doing?"
"Recording this dreadful song."
"Why is the song dreadful?"
"Because I don't know what it is but I can't get it the way I want it to be."
"What is it you want to be?"
"I want it to be perfect."
"What is perfect to you?"
"I want it to seem like there isn't something missing, but it feels like something is missing."
"Oh, it's that same song huh?"
"Yeah."
"Do you think I need to be in the song?" he asked. I looked around the studio as if he was here.
"Yes. Your fans always seem to say that you make songs better."
He laughed. "Ok, what studio you at?"
I told him and he said that he would be here soon. I hung up the phone and then proceeded to work on the song. 20 minutes later, Chris came through the doors. He smiled. I stood up and hugged him.
"You smell like.. .food." he told me. I backed up. Then looked at him.
"What type of food?" I asked trying to smell myself.
"Like fruit. Not bad food. Like peaches."
"Oh that's good."
"Yeah. So, what's wrong with your song?" he said sitting down. I played what I had for him.
"You're right, that was horrible." I pushed him. He smiled. "But, I think I can do something for this."
He went into the booth. Then they started the song. He looked at me. Then put two thumbs up.
"Put you up against the wall, and Imma go to work til you get off, baby, soon as you're done we'll go some more, Girl just imagine us." He sang. I looked at him. He smiled. They stopped the music. I clapped. Then he stepped out of the booth. "You like?"
"Yeah. That's why I'm clapping."
"I know you'll like because I'm amazing."
"Stop being cocky." I said. After we fix the minor details that we needed, Chris and I left the studio. I smiled when he pressed the button.
"I got a present for you." he said.
"What is it?"
"Close ya eyes." I closed them. I heard the elevator ding which meant it was about to open so we could get on it. He put something in my hands. I opened my eyes. It was a box. I opened the box to reveal eye masks.
"What tf is this?"
"It's eye masks. For when you're in the elevator Sacagawea." he said. "Put it on now before we get on the elevator."
"I don't want to look stupid."
"You already do." I punched him in the arm.
"You're an asshole."
"But you like this asshole." he said smiling. I put it on and he lead me into the elevator. After what seemed like forever, the elevator doors opened. I took the mask off. To reveal so many people standing there.
"SURPRISE." they all screamed. I looked at Chris.
"What is this Christopher?"
"Well, I know how hard you've been working so I wanted to make you happy by throwing you a party. That I can't attend."
"How do you throw a party for someone and you can't go?"
"Well the first reason was because I still have Royalty. My mother is watching her right now. And I don't want Nia to be going to court saying I don't spend time with my daughter. When I do. And the other reason why I can't go is because I'm banned. But have fun for me." he said with a pouty lip.
I smiled. "I will. See you later Chris."
"yeah. See you later." he said smiling and walking away. I watched him while he walked away. Then everybody was pushing towards the doors to get me ready for this party that Chris threw for me. Although he gets on my nerves a lot, he's so sweet. I love seeing this sweet side. But Nia warned me about his bad side.
Nia started to call me once I was around Royalty a lot. Talking about my past. And what I was doing with Chris. I don't know why she's being nosey but, she's been telling me a lot of ba things that Chris does that makes me wonder do I really want to be with him. But like already said, Chris is sweet. He doesn't seem like the type to hurt someone's feelings just because. Well, I really hope that never happens with me.
