DON'T PLAY SONG YET!! I WILL TELL YOU WHEN TO PLAY!!
--Avery Jordan
August and I rode to the fair in a comfortable silence.
I was enjoying the quiet because it didn't involve Brice yelling at me.
I was enjoying this moment because Brice wasn't in it.
But most importantly, I was enjoying this man because Brice wasn't him.
"Avery. We're here."
I was so engaged in my thoughts, I didn't realize we arrived to the location.
I looked at the lights and rides outside my window. It was beautiful. I was staring in awe and didn't realize Aug opened my door, waiting for me to get out.
"You wanna ride tha leath'a a' tha carseats or ya wanna get out?" He held his hand out.
I laughed at him and placed my hand in his. He locked the doors of his car about eight times before we actually walked away from it.
"A lot of love for your car, I see." I said and laughed a little.
"My bad. It's a' habit." He laughed slightly.
We walked into the park hand in hand while he paid for our tickets. The first ride I wanted to get on was the Ferris Wheel.
"So, how long has it been since ya been ta tha fair?" He asked while we stood in line.
"Ten years. My parents died when I was 14." I said, staring off into space.
"Since we're Canadian, none of my family members were here. They had to send me back, since I had no legal guardian here, or put me in an orphanage. They decided the orphanage would be cheaper, so I stayed there until I was 18. I house hopped for two years until I met Brice. He took me into his home and we'd been together since." I said, not realizing that I was rambling and told him my whole life story.

August Alsina"He took me into his home and we'd been together since."
Damn. She'd been thru a lot.
"I'm sorry ta hea' dat." I said, since dey were tha only words I could get ta come out.
Avery is a beautiful girl. It fucked with me that afta' this night, she had ta go back home ta an abusive nigga.
She ain't deserve dat shit at all.
We got on tha Ferris Wheel since it's tha ride she said she missed tha most.
"So August, what's your middle name?" She asked while tha wheel began ta turn.
I laughed a lil'. This girl is so full a' questions.
"Anthony."
"August Anthony Alsina." She nodded ha head then looked at me. "I like it."
"Yea. Me too. What's ya middle name? Ashley? Ciara? Brittany? Some otha kind a' typical shit?" I asked ha.
"Freak no." She said. "It's Josephine."
Josephine. Hmm..
"I fucks wit it." I said
She laughed.
"I frucks with it, too."
I looked at ha.
"Ya wat wit it?"
