The flight back to California went quicker than Tae expected only because she spent the whole time sleeping. She had a few hours to spare before she had to be in LA for her styling appointment with Kimora Lee Simmons. Her nap on the flight gave her just the energy she needed, she wheeled her luggage into the large mansion, pulling it up the stairs and left it in her closet. She knew she be kicking herself in the ass for not unpacking it right then and there.

Johnny, Drake's personal trainer had him in the workout room, Tae stood leaning against the door frame taking in all his sweaty galore you could hear metal bars clanking against one another, Johnny encouraging him to keep going. Every muscle in his upper body flexed, his stomach becoming extremely tight when every he pushed the heavyweights up, evenly exhaling every time he eased them down. If it wasn't for Johnny standing there spotting him she would have been straddling him pulling off his clothing. Sweaty or not the man was gorgeous.

"There you go! Lift up! One more!." Johnny said pushing him through his last set.

Drake grunted through his clenched teeth as the weights became heavier than they were on his first set. Buffing up his chest as he mustered through the last lift.

"Go job." Johnny quickly grabbed on the bar helping Drake place it back onto the rack.

He closed his eyes and relaxed his body still lying flat on his back on the weight lifting bench, he let both his arms hang giving them a rest. Johnny bent down and tossed a small towel on his chest, Drake let it sit there before grabbing it and sitting up.

"I see you got out of workout this week for modeling." Johnny said eyeing Tae as she stood in the door.

Drake looked up from wiping away sweat off his forehead to see Tae standing there watching him.

"Eeehhh ya know, that darn modeling! Always gets in the way of my workout." Tae said sarcastically, turning her hand into a fist trying her hardest to look bummed out about missing her weekly workout.

Johnny and Drake both laughed, knowing she was full of shit. Johnny grabbed his bag and water bottle and began walking towards Tae. "That's fine." He shrugged his shoulders. "Cuz next week you go twice as hard." He said giving her a stern look before kissing her to his and raising a hand to Drake.

"Awwww Johnny! Come on! Don't do me like this!" She said yelling down the hall at him. "I got asthma!"

Johnny continued his walking down the hall until he was completely gone. Tae frowned, as she watched him disappear, she felt Drake's presence coming towards her.

"I got asthma!" She said looking up at him.

"You don't have asthma." He said back looking down at her, with an emotionless face.

"Well I can develop it, in week. You don't know." She said back with an extremely serious face, trying to convince Drake that she could possibly have asthma.

Drake gave in and began laughing at her. He grabbed both her cheeks and squeezed her face and kisses her puckered up lips. Tae slid her arms around his waist, the sweat from his shoulders and arms dripped down his back leaving trail marks. "So I guess I can't take you upstairs and."

Drakes's hands slid down to her waist then her down to her butt, he gripped the bottom of it and pulled up as he whispered in her ear, Tae began to giggle at the hairs of his beard tickling her neck, goosebumps covered her arms once she felt his tongue lick ear.

"Nooo, you can still do that!" Tae said with a big smile.

"You sure? I don't want your asthma to flare up." Drake teased her as he kept his face in the crook of her neck.

"No no, only working out, flares it up." Trying to keep herself from laughing.

Drake picked her up, she wrapped her legs around his waist, her hands around his shoulders. Tae grabbed his face shoving her tongue down his throat. Drake began walking towards the bathroom of the workout room.

"Wait wait wait! What time is it." Tae asked in between kisses.

Drake had no interest in time or what time it was, his tongue was down Tae's throat and his dick was firmly pressing against his boxer briefs.

"I have a meeting in LA with Kimora!" She continued.

Drake groaned but continued kissing her. His grip on her ass grew tighter as he refused to put her down. Tae began to push against his shoulders. "Tonight. I promise. I promise." She said pulling from his lips.

Tae pulled to the back of the large building, she smoothed down her clothing before walking towards the front doors. Paparazzi gathered getting as many pics of her before she disappeared into the building. Kimora stood in black calf-high flat boots and a pair of very fitted jeans and a loose-fitting shirt, her figure was back to normal after giving birth to her fourth child in April, but of course, she would tell you she still needed some workout sessions.

Kimora was always full of life. Her personality was much different then what people thought or even expected her to be. Tae could hear her before she could see her. She pushed open the large studio doors to see Kimora standing behind a model pulling and tugging at certain parts of the outfit.

"I like." Tae said walking up behind her.

Kimora turned around raising her arms and pulling her into a hug. "How's my super mode!?"

"I'm good. I literally just got back from NY a few hours ago." Tae said shaking her head.

Kimora's eyes grew wide. "Vogue? Right?

Tae shook her head up and down. "How was it?" She asked as she turned around about her attention back to the current outfit on the model.

"I miss it. I want to get back to it full time." Kimora looked up from the model with a smile.

"I knew you would. Oh and I hope, um what's her name? Draya? Didn't give you a hard time?" Kimora turned back to pulling the hem of the suit jacket down.

Tae closed her eyes. Pinching the brim of her nose between her index finger and thumb. "You saw that!" Tae asked feeling embarrassed.

"Girl, I am a mother of four. I see and hear everything. It's like a super power."

Tae broke out in laughter. "Girl I'm mad at you. You had to did what you had to did." Kimora put on her St. Louis accent. "And you handled it outside." She continued fidgeting with the outfit. "Sometimes the more chances you give somebody the more respect you lose. You don't ever let nobody get comfortable disrespecting you."

Kimora fell into silence as she continued working, she had just dropped some age-old knowledge like this was an everyday thing, a shrug of the shoulders. Tae's friendship with Jazmine had reached a certain point where she had no choice but to find out what connection she had with the drama that seemed to randomly follow her at the most convenient times. At some point, Tae lost a lot of respect because Jazmine was very comfortable with the disrespect.
