Give Me A Reason

Alicia pov

So I'm at work and my suppose to be friend/co-worker suppose to be helping but she all in some light skinned nigga face (as usual). Her name is Kenya and of course she a skinny girl. She cool to hang with but she don't know how to work hard then play hard. She always play hard and when it's time to work she play harder which really irk my nerves but I'm not the one for drama. Since I work the night sift I often see celebrities. I have seen Kevin Hart, Tyga & Kylie, Drake, Beyonce', Trey Songz, Chris Brown, Rae Sermmurd, & Weeknd. Such amazing people and I'm greatful for getting to see them. Even though I saw them I never got to serve them. Kenya was all up in the men's face and she even went home with Trey Songz. I honestly couldn't tell you why I consider her a friend but any way back to work my break is over**

"Hey Alicia here's a order for table five. They want to Martinies with lemon. You got that?"

"Ok Kenya. Two Martinies with lemon coming right up."

"Ima need you to take them their drinks. I'm on break."Kenya served me that information with a smile.

"No problem." I turned around making the order.

Once I got to table five I notice the light skin nigga Kenya was talking to and he actually turned out to be August Alsina. I tensed up. I am so fucking nervous. I never served a celeb before and for the first to be August Alsina really have me about to loose my mind. But I'm gonna try to play it cool. Lord help me play cool.

"Excuse me Sir but these are your drinks. Two Martinies with lemon and if you need anything let me know. I'm Alicia your bartender and enjoy." I held it together.

"Thank you Alicia, I really apprciate it." He smiled at me which made me melt inside.

"No problem, it's my job." I grinned but only to be interrupted by Kenya cock blocking ass.

"Hey baby I'm back." She said.

Honestly I didn't know if she was talking to me or someone else until I saw her stare into August's eyes. Them everything came to me. I figured it all out about the two Martinies and the fact she said she was going on break. Now don't I feel stupid. I pull her to the side.

"Kenya are you serious? You're really gonna make me do your work and mine and on top of that serve you while you doing this."

"Alicia don't hate ok. Look just do me this favor, how often do August Alsina come through here? Pleaseee."

she basically begged for my help and I thought about it but she always abandon her job and leave me with it. I don't feel like doing anything for her but like I said I'm not the one for drama so I guess I'll help her but I know I'm going to regret it.

"Alright but you owe me."

"I got you girl and thank you."

She sits down in front of August and they began vibing which made me jealous but I know I wouldn't have had a chance anyway.

I went back behind the counter to service other customers. Then Kenya tell my name for me to come to them.

"What you need Kenya?" I asked very sweetly even though I was pissed off then I felt August's eyes on me. It felt like he could tell that I was mad but I didn't pay it much attention.

"I wanted to remind you to clean the bathrooms and we would like a refill." she said that so arrogantly that I bout cussed her out but I knew she just did that to impress August, which the look on his face said otherwise. I just nodded my head and did my duties.

I wasn't even thinking about cleaning no damn bathroom because it was her turn. I did however want and got them more drinks.

"Here you go your refills and may I have those glasses?" I said shyly since Kenya had went somewhere and it was just me and August.

"Here you go beautiful and thanks for your hard work." his voice was so smooth and layed back.

I tried not to bluss but by me being light skinned it showed up anyway.

"Thank you Sir and enjoy."

"I will." he licked his lips.

Someone help me before I loose my mind.

August pov

So I went to club Mad and as soon as a nigga step in the door this thirsty looking chick was in my face. I talked to her and found out her name was Kenya. I like that name but shawty was a little annoying. When she left for a while to go change, the bartender Alicia came and served me. She was very sweet and she showed respect but the best of all, she wasn't all up in my face like Kenya. Shawty was a lil thick in the waist but I don't have a problem with that. I could tell that she was wearing her natural hair which was very long and wavy but what really got my attention was her eyes. They were a hazel brown color which complemented her skin very well. She was indeed beauitful.

Then here came Kenya again calling me baby and shit and I'm like bitch I just met you. Alicia pulled her to the side and I respected their privacy but I can tell that Alicia was annoyed. I felt like Kenya could have stayed and did her job instead of leaving Alicia by herself to do it.

While we talked I realized that she ain't the type of girl I would want to be with. She kept asking me questions about my money. Her dumb ass thought I was gonna tell her how much I make and where I live.

After we finished our drinks she called Alicia's fine ass back over here. When Alicia came Kenya hit her with that bull shit, talking about clean the bathroom and get another refill which I was ready to leave but I stayed anyway. I could tell Alicia was pissed but she didn't say nothing she just nodded and walked away. I told Kenya that what she did was wrong and she need to finish her job before I call and have her fired. She listened but with an attude.

When Alicia came back and notice it was just me she looked a little relieved which made me smile. I called her beautiful because she is and she blussed. I just feel like there's something about this girl but I can't put my finger on it. She left myside and drunk down the Martinies and gave Alicia a 100 dollar tip and a note that said

' I really appreciated your hard work and kindness. Dont let your friend get to you because girls like her can't compete with beautiful women like you.

Stay safe luv
-Ausust'
