"She so damn messy! The bitch really left after y'all." Jazmine spoke as she cut off a small portion of chicken, then stabbed it with her fork. "See, these thirsty hoes KNOW how to get their name on the boards. I tell you." She shook her head pointing the chicken that was on the end of her fork at Tae. "She probably told MTO she met up with y'all."
Tae looked at Jazmine as she leaned back in her seat. "I mean, that would be the only way."
The fact that Melissa was an old fling of Drake's worked in her favor, it only made for a messier story. She'd get her few minutes of fame and a couple extra likes and that's really all Melissa cared for, the attention, she didn't care what she needed to do to get it, or who's nerves she needed to get on. All publicity was good publicity.
Tae was in no mood to really eat, she went between pushing bright green pieces of broccoli around her plate to poking holes into her half-eaten perfectly cooked steak, however, Jazmine was working on her second course while finishing off her third glass of red wine.
"You gone drink the whole bottle?" Tae asked with an arched brow and a scrunched up mouth.
"A glass a day, keeps the doctor away.... Soooo I just drink a whole bottle to make sure." Jazmine smiled at Tae as she picked up the half-empty wine glass to finish it off.
"Anyway, what you got up yo sleeve for Draya?"
Tae watched as Jazmine poured another half glass of red wine. "She's got a showing on the 1st, the venue will cancel on her." Tae said in a calm voice, her facial expressions were extremely soft for what she was talking about.
"BITCH! You so damn petty! HOW!!" Jazmine's full attention was on Tae holding her wine in one hand and her fork in the other.
"I have ways." Tae said keeping her face emotionless.
"You know Orlando called off the engagement because of what she did." Jazmine gossiped with a smile, Tae looked up giving her a matching smile and shaking her head.
"How you know this shit."
"Cuz! Duh bitch I'm nosy, I got ears everywhere!" Jazmine replied rolling her eyes and placing the rim of the wine glass to her lips.
Jazmine looked over her wine glass as her eyes met with a familiar face, her eyebrow went into a high arch, she took the glass from her lips and pressed them together. "Speak of the Devil." She said rolling her eyes. "Don't look over but your so called 3rd wheel just walked in."
Tae closed her eyes and laid her head back. "L.A. is too fucking small." She groaned pinching the brim of her nose.
"Well if it isn't my minaj e tua partner, how are you beautiful?" Melissa teased Tae with a wide smile. Tae stared at her unamused. "Awww we not friends anymore!?" Melissa asked keeping the smile on her face but already knew the answer.
"I'm trying to have dinner with my best friend. I'd appreciate if you left me to continue my night." Tae said back in the most calming voice she could muster up.
Melissa's perfectly shaped eyebrow arched so high it touched her hairline. "I just came to say hi, you don't need to be a bitch."
Tae looked at Melissa for a few seconds trying to keep her anger under control. "I'm not being a bitch.... Yet." Tae slowly placed her elbows on the table and leaned forward keeping her eye contact with Melissa. "Don't be fake, you knew you had an issue with me, yet you was willing to pass your character around for fifteen minutes of fame on a tacky blog site. You didn't come over here to be nice and say hi, you came over here to be petty..... Bitch."
Melissa began to grow angry, her smile faded just as fast as it came. Her arms folded across her chest "I tell ya, hoes start dating Drake and swear they're better than everybody else." Melissa shook her head laughing. "Honey I didn't have an issue with you, You ain't the first to get to him and you sure won't be the last. You ain't the only bitch to parade around the compound on your high horse." Melissa's neck snapped as she stared Tae down.
"You're right, I'm not the first. And 'hoe' is a but far fitch don't you think? Considering that I didn't fuck him and his team just to step on the property. You paraded around for a few days, but I got my own closet..... Hoe" Tae kept her straight face as she held eye contact with Melissa for a few more seconds, she then reached in her purse and pulled her wallet out and placed a hundred dollar bill on the table. Tae stood up and walked out not leaving room for Melissa to reply back.
Jazmine followed behind Tae, the restaurant doors where held open by two tall gentlemen in fitted black suits. Jazmine handed the valet her ticket for her car to be pulled around. Tae stood as paparazzi began to come up, multiple men in cameras circled her but left enough space for her to walk, the questions began to ring in one after another, and did her best to not look annoyed considering her attitude was at an all-time high and if she did open her mouth the end resort would be her cussing out the men asking the questions.
The last thing she needed was to be on MTO or TMZ acting a plum fool cursing at cameras. Tae stood hand in hand with her best friend talking amongst themselves in each other's ears, flashes continued to go off in Jazmine and Tae's face.
"HOW WAS VEGAS!?"
"YOU AND MELISSA FRIENDS!?"
"TAE! WHERE'S DRAKE!?"
"Views." Tae said back turning to the cameraman with a smile, signaling that he was home working on his album.
"HE GOT A DATE FOR US?" The cameraman quickly asked before Tae got in the car.
Tae's wide smile caused her eyes to completely closed. She held up both her arms then shrugged her shoulders, then stepped into the passenger side of the truck.

Drake's large body laid stretched out on the studio couch, one arm propped behind his head and the other resting on his stomach. The food was exactly what Drake and 40 needed, both men had been in a food coma for going on an hour. The smell of Italian food still lingered in the air, empty cups sat on the tables next to the couches and half-eaten food containers lined the tall black table that stood off to the right side of the studio.
Tae slightly pushed open the studio door, noticing it was quieter than usual she pushed the door fully open to see Drake fully dressed and sprawled out on the spacious studio couch. She looked around but 40 was nowhere to be found, assuming he went to his room, Tae bent down at the knee and untied Drake's heavy black Tim boots and pulled them from his feet.
She turned her attention to her heels, unbuckling the wide strap that was wrapped around her ankle and pulled the heels off placing them next to Drake's boots. She picked up his phone from his chest and placed it on the table, then crawled on top of him placing her head on his chest. Drake groaned and slightly shifted in his sleep, his arm natural went around Tae waist with his hand on her butt.
Tae kissed on the side of his jawbone then softly ran her thumb down the short hairs of his beard smoothing them out. She watched him sleep peacefully, noticing the small bags under his eyes were slowly fading as he began catching up on his sleep. As much as he spoke about taking a vacation, just to stop and enjoy life, he was too much of a workaholic. She was surprised that he lasted as long as he did in Vegas before he started itching to be in the studio again. Tae stuck her nose in the crook of his neck and breathed in his cologne and that was all she needed at that moment.
