Celine
" How was the trip?" My mom asked when I came in the house with my bags.
" It was pretty good, I didn't really expect a lot of things." Thinking over about me and Chris.
" Did you and Sean get closer?"
" Yeah." I lied. Out of anything, me and Chris the ones who gotten closer.
" That is great, soon we will be hearing baby cradles and wedding bells."
" Mom, I think you speaking a bit too soon."
" Oh, I didn't know that boy Chris was on the trip."
" How you find out?"
" Its this article off E! News saying that upcoming artist Chris was in the islands with fellow other celebrities. Do you think that they was making music?"
" Ha, them people will write anything." I shook my head as I applied my lipstick on.
" Did you and him, ya know..?"
" Me and who do what?"
" Don't play. Did you and Chris have sex?"
" Mom why are you so stuck on him?"
" No Celine, why are you so stuck on him? It have been years and you still manage a way to get to that trouble child."
" He was there when no one was."
" Yeah and the same kid who dragged your name through the mud." I rolled my eyes at her and started fixing some more of my makeup.
" Everyone is not perfect, okay? I didn't wake up to be Cassie and just decided that my life was going to be perfect afterwards."
" So what are you saying?"
" I'm saying that I'm done living a lie."
" A lie? Celine didn't nobody tell you to stop being yourself."
" Uh mom yeah you did.. I never managed to think of shaving the side of my head or even think about being with a woman. This industry have me out to look like a wild bisexual bitch." I noticed my mom face soften.
" I'm sorry ma-"
" Get ready Sean is downstairs waiting on you." She left out my room, so I was left to get dressed.

" Hey." I smiled and pecked his cheek as I approached him.
" Yeah, well lemme call you back." I noticed he was on the phone, I instantly rolled my eyes. I swear this man is forever on the phone.
" Hey baby." He turned his attention to me and pecked my lips, I flashed him a smile.

We headed outside to this all black Escalade truck instead of him opening the door, he just got in the truck and opened the door for himself.
" What a gentleman?" I sarcastically said.
" Oh my bad, so look we are heading to this place so I can sign this boy band."
" Boy band? That sounds nice." I started to look down at my phone.
" Hey, what you planning to do with Chris? You know he have talent?"
" Yeah, I know."
" I was thinking of me and him collaborate on a track together."
" Nah Cassie, I don't know about that." It was a shame he didn't know anything personally about me.. just what outsiders see of me. He don't even know my real name, the only reason I am with him is because my mom thinks this is good for my reputation. To be honest, I can care less any about that. I just want to be a artist who express themselves through their music, but no I'm not one of them. I tend to hide behind material things and a sexuality that surely doesn't define me.

" Hey Cas, we here." He tapped my leg and I hopped out the truck.
" Nice place."
" Nick knows how to live it up."
" Nick Cannon?" I asked in curiosity.
" No, Nick, the producer."
" Oh." I walked behind Sean as if he knew where exactly to go.

As we was walking in the house, we walked past one room and I saw two white girls on the floor looking like they was snorting something off the table. I quickly walked behind Sean while holding onto his shirt.
" Hey baby, I'm right here." I nod my head at him and kept looking around.

We finally came across this room, Sean dapped the man up.
" Hey, you Cassie?" The man asked.
" Yeah."
" I'm Nick." He reached his hand out for me to shake.
" Nice to meet you." I shook his hand then I noticed Nick gave Sean a look.
" Hey baby, look me and Nick got business to handle so go make yourself at home." I nod my head.
" Mi casa su casa." Nick said. I flashed a fake smile and left out the room.

I decided to walk downstairs and sit on the couch, some girl approached me.
" Hey girl."
" Hi." I still had my eyes on my phone.
" What's your name?" She asked.
" Cel- Cassie." I said nonchalant.
" You cute."
" I'm far from cute, I'm gorgeous. Cute is for little girls and I'm a grown ass woman."
" Feisty, I like it." She started to sit beside me and rub my leg.
" Uh.. Before I knock you on yo face, I'm gone ask you what you doing?" I removed her hand.
" I'm a little horny, so.. you wanna help me real quick." She whispered in my ear.
" And my fist is itching, you wanna help with that?" Before she could say anything back, Nick and Sean came downstairs with a smile plastered on their face.
" I see you met my girlfriend, Bianca." She walked over to Nick.
" Mhm." I mean mugged Bianca and walked over to Sean.
" Well.. Nick it was nice doing business with you." Sean shook Nick hand.
