Dre Day

Just Me And You

October 1989
Dre POV
I'm just living the life at this very moment. So much has already happened in the past year, but the main thing is that I actually managed to cope with the shit that happened.  Right now, I'm just gonna chill and let everything settle for a while. I've already got the perfect idea too. Taking Jade out for something to eat and just spending quality time together.

I looked at the phone before reaching over to get it and then dialing the number. I heard an answer after a good three rings.

"Hello?" said the familiar voice.

"Hey baby girl!" I said before I heard Jade laugh over the phone.

"Hey Dre! What's up? You in the studio?"

I smiled before I answered the phone. "Nah, I'm at home today." I said and stretched my legs. I heard a fake gasp on the phone and I laughed.

"Oh my God! Andre Young is not at the studio?! What is going on in this world?!" I laughed at Jade's use of drama in her voice.

"Quit playing ma, I'm gon' take you out" I said and she hummed on the phone.

"You gon' take me out? Are you asking me on a date Mr. Andre Young?" Jade said and I rolled my eyes before I answered her.

"Yes. I'm asking you."

"Alright cool, let me get ready and come to my place at 6:30pm."

"Okay baby girl. I love you" I smiled and she giggled before saying.

"I love you too doctor"

The phone line went dead and I hung up the phone. I got up from the couch that I was on a minute ago and stretched my arms out. Then I picked up the phone once again. I needed to call T.A about this. After all he's the smart one with the advice.

After a couple rings I heard the smooth voice speak.

"Hello?"

"Yeah what's up T.A?"

"Who's this?"

I chuckled and rolled my eyes before I answered the phone.

"It's Dre fool!" I laughed before I glanced at the clock. 2:00pm it read and that was good cause I got to get all the advice that I need for this date.

"Oh shit what's up nigga? I didn't know it was you." I heard him say on the phone. I just cleared my throat before speaking.

"Yeah man look can I ask you something?"

I heard T.A sneeze and then blowing his nose.

"You okay homie? You sound ill?" I said.

"Yeah man just a little cold. Go ahead and shoot the question Dre."

I gulped. "Uh yeah so I asked Jade on a date-" I got cut off by T.A talking. "My man Dre! I knew you could do it!" He said and I laughed.

"Yeah nigga look, I need some advice about this, you're the only guy that I can talk to who knows this shit."

There was a pause for a moment and I heard T.A blowing his nose again.

"Man you blowing your nose a lot homie!" I said. "You doing coke or something?"

As soon as I said that T.A's voice thundered down the line. "Coke? Nigga do I look like the type of nigga that does coke? Hell to the motherfucking no I don't. I never do coke and never will fool!"

I laughed. "Aye aye man chill! I got'chu T. I'm with it. But yo' any advice for ya nigga out here?" I said hoping that he would give me any tips to use for Jade.
