"What's good Luc?" Lucas snapped out of his thoughts looking up at his good friend Trey. He held up a Chinese food bag with a big grin.

"I knew yo ass would be cooped up in this office all day. You hungry?" He said plopping down on his couch.

"Sure. Thanks" Lucas got up and sat across from him and opened the bag.

"So what you been up to?"
"Shit nothing just been kicking it. How's wifey?" Lucas asked.

"Pregnant and moody as hell" he chuckled. Trey as in Trey Songz and Lucas has been friends since age four. They both grew up on the same street in Petersburg, Virginia. Lucas would sneak out at night and play Xbox and board games all night. Him and his family knew about what went on at home. Momma April would always invite Lucas and his siblings over on weekends and they would watch movies and eat pizza. He sometimes wished he was really apart their family.

"You going to that thing tonight?" Trey asked.

"What thing?"

"It's like a gala but it's for all them snobby ass rich people"

"I guess I am. I have to meet someone for a possible deal" he chuckled.

"When you gonna get you a girl Luc?"

"When I'm ready?"

"So you mean you tell me that all these fine ass women in this building and you ain't interested or smashed?" Trey exclaimed.

Lucas sighed contemplated on telling Trey about the brown beauty that entered his office.

"There's this one girl..." he trailed off.

Before Trey can say something Lucas cut him off.

"She's not blond. You'll actually be surprised"

"She's a redhead?"  Trey asked?

"She's black"

Trey stared at him for a minute then started laughing. He stopped then cleared his throat watching Lucas wide eyed.

"Oh you're serious? Oh my god"

"I'm serious Trey. I swear her body is so....damn" he sighed.

"What she look like?"

"Her name is Nylah. She look about 5'4, like your skin tone, full pink lips, slim thick, a black rose on her wrist an-"

"Hol' up" Trey stopped Lucas pulling out his phone, "Nylah? Is her last name Stone?"

"I think so but I haven't seen her in a year so I doubt she remembers me"

Trey goes on Instagram and turns his phone towards me. There she was. She looked stunning. She cut her hair into a bob but she was rocking the fuck out of it.

"Damn" Lucas muttered.

"If that's her I should slap you" he glared at him

"Why?"

"Cause first off you could've smashed or gotten her pregnant by  now. Secondly she's with some girl meaning she might be gay so you gotta blow her back out if you really want her but today might be your lucky day cause her girl cheated on her and it's all over the media and most likely she gonna be at the dinner shit tonight. Thirdly she's a fashion designer and a good one at that and she's making her own money so it's gonna take a lot to impress her, and that shouldn't be hard since you're making 7 figures every two months" Trey finished off with a smile.

Trey was actually very proud of Lucas' success. Lucas was a straight A student in school mainly because all Lucas did was study and stay at the library. Trey was more of the out going one and defended Lucas. Lucas was the quiet and weak one but one day that all changed.
