Burn

Chapter 2

Usher -

The next morning, I woke up and took care of my hygiene. Then after breakfast I read the newspaper, and took my vocal lessons. Once I was finished with that, I grabbed the keys to my all black Lamborghini and headed back to the diner. I couldn't get Taraji off my mind. I had the best dream ever about her last night. I needed to see her. I needed to see that pretty smile of hers.

I pulled up in front of the diner, and cut the engine down. I hopped out and shut the door shut. I put my shades on and walked inside of the restaurant. I walked to the desk and out came a dark skin waitress with pretty white teeth. "Hi," I smiled. "Hi how are you?" She asked. "I'm good, I'm there's a waitress here, I think her name is Taraji, I was wondering if she was here today," I said as I took my shades off.

"Oh my god!" She cheered as she jumped up and down. I smiled at her. "I'm so sorry, I just can't believe it's you here in the flesh," she said. "Yeah it's me," I said. "Can I help you with anything?" She asked. "Yeah Taraji-"

"Oh you're looking for Taraji?" She asked shocked. "Yeah is she here?" I asked. "No she's off today," she replied. "Oh okay, well uhm... Alright," I said as I rubbed my head.

"Come here," she said as she stepped to the side. I walked over by her and she checked to see if anybody was looking. "I'm her Bestfriend, Tasha, Taraji normally hanging out at the Barnes & Noble right off Davenport," she said.

"Thank you, thanks so much," I said smiling from ear to ear. She pulled my arm and gave me a stern look. "Don't tell her I told you where she was at she will kill my ass," she laughed.

"Alright I won't, thank you," I chuckled. "You're welcome," she replied. I put my shades back on and ran outside to the car. I put my foot on the break, pressed the button and drove off. I had never been this excited before. Never have I been this nervous before especially when it came to a female, but Taraji wasn't just some female I could tell. I pulled up in the parking lot of the Barnes & Noble and cut the engine down. I reached in the glove compartment and pulled out a piece of gum. I checked my self in the mirror and then I hopped out.

I walked inside and checked the first floor. Of course I had to take a few pictures, and sign a few autographs. After not seeing her on first floor, I decided to go the the second floor and that's where I spotted her sitting in the love seat near the window reading and sipping out of a coffee cup.

She looked so sexy. I licked my lips and walked near the adult book second. I picked out two James Patterson books that I was familiar with and then I walked over to her.

"Hi," I smiled. She chuckled and looked out the window. "Are you stalking me?" She asked. "Stalking you? What? No you think I would try this hard to get to you, please I mean you fine but shit," I said as I nervously cleared my throat and chuckled. Continued to give me a mean glare.

She got up, and I grabbed her arm. "Hey, just sit back down I promise I'm not on no bull shit okay," I said as I looked her in the eyes. She looked around and then looked back at me. I wanted to kiss her lips badly.

She jerked her arm back and sat down. I sat down in the love seat across from her. "How do you know I was here?" She asked. "You're friend at the diner," I said. "I am going to seriously kill her," she mumbled. "No don't tell her okay, I promised her I wouldn't say nothing," I said.

"Why you so concerned about me? What do you want from me man?" She asked as she scrunched her face. Damn she's so fucking beautiful. I thought to myself. "I wanna take you on a date," I said.

She started laughing and I just gave her a straight face. "Oh you were serious?" She asked. "yeah," I said as I sucked my teeth.
"Look Usher, I'm sorry okay, I'm not interested," she replied.
