ASIA'S POV

Practice was nothing but a dub today. B* cant get a damn form right!!! I was so freaking annoyed I swear. Sometimes I want to quit this team.

Like always, after coming home to an empty house, I threw on my basketball short,socks, Kds, a sport bra and headed to the park. Street ball yall!!

I met up with my boy, Zion on the way there and we walked to the basketball court, where they were already setting up the teams for the day.

Guy: Yo Asia, its you, Zion, Darrin and Ty. Then me, Bryan and--

Me: Darrin? Who that?

Darrin: that would be me (smiles)

I could not believe at who I was looking at, Darrin Jones. Damnn. Bryson didn't lie...he did glo up.

BRYSON'S POV

Me: hi Ms. Williams(waves as he is entering the house)

Ms. Williams: hi Bryson (rolls eyes and contiues smoking her joint)

This lady crazy. Smoking that stuff, when she know she got asthma and all these heart problems. Mm-mm-mm.

Me: mmmm..I do bet that Joint is hella good Ms. Williams.

Ms. Williams: (takes the joint out her mouth) Bryson...Shut the f* up boy!! Aint you got none betta to do?

Me: Aight. Ms William, you right! Smoke your stuff. *chuckles* is definitely good for the heart.

Ms. Williams: Oh F* you Bryson.

Me:(licks his lips and winks at her very seductively, teasing her) you wish!

I got in the house and finished helping my mom with her groceries, I swear she bought food like the world was gonna end.

After helping I quickly ran down to the studio, just to make sure everything was good for tonight.

While taking a shower, I rehearsed the songs. Damn a brotha was beginning to get nervouse. I got dressed and kept on telling myself "you can do this". But damnn, the other half of me told me I cant. My mind begant to battle and I sure didnt know what to do. I cant back down either. Damn Bryson, whats going on with you?!?.

??: Bryson???

Me:(picks his head up) Royalty?...*stuttering* wh-what are y-you doing here?

Royalty:(sits beside him) I-I made J'zon drive me here because (pauses)...I knew you would need someone to...talk to...

Me: (exhales) yeah...I do.

ASIA'S POV

Me: so what brings you here?

Derrin: none, I just moved into the neighborhood..(scratches back of the head) Kinda surprised to see you....here.

Me: sa-same thing.

This kinda akward and coincidence for me to meet Darrin, especially like this. When it came to boys, I become this shy girl, and I really didnt know what to say.

Zion: sooo....we gonna play ball or na?

Me:(snaps outta thoughts) ye-yeah. Yeah. Play ball. (Passes the ball to him and the game begins)

BRYSON'S POV

It felt like Royal was my guardian angel or some like that when she appeared in my room. I really needed someone here with me right now. I needed her.

Royal: Bryson..do you remember what I told you the first time you got on a stage?

Me:(stares deep into her eyes) yes...I do..

Royal: what did I say?

Me: you told me to that a stage is like a room...and the crowd is like a mirror...(pauses)...reflecting me.

Royal: and what else did I say?

Me: you told me that....If I tell myself that I cant do it, then I cant. If I believe that I can do it, then I will. The mind is the enemy of the heart. They both may sound the same, but you can tell and feel the difference. (Leans in)

Royal paused. The studio was now quiet and the only light was the moon alumining us. I couldnt help it but get lost on those beautiful glowing brown eyes Royalty had. The way the moon was making her shine, her skin glowing. I couldnt describe it...

Me and Royalty sat there quiet for a moment, as all I could do was sink in her words and toughen up.

Me: I dont know what is it about you Royal. Its like...you make me strong, in the moments where I feel the weakest...(they both lean in).

Next thing I know... I lost control of everything. Her tender lips were intersected with mine, and even though this only lasted 5 seconds....it felt like 5 minutes to me. (Royalty pulls away)

Me: Royal I--Im sorry.

(Royalty walks out the studio, leaving Bryson with both hands infront of his mouth as if he was praaying)

ASIA'S POV

By the time we finished playing, it was time for me to go and get ready for Bryson's performance.

Darrin:(catching up to Asia) Yo As wait!

Me:(turns around) yeah...

Darrin: where you going? You just gon leave without saying bye to nobody?

Me: Umm...I have this thing in a couple of minutes, but my fault...B-bye.(turns around)

Darrin: Yo wait!!!!(Asia stops) Let me walk you home.

ROYALTY'S POV.

Oh gosh. What just happened?!?

To be honest, I really couldnt speak right now. Feeling Bryson's lips on mine....I....it like....it...it felt... like..I wanted it to happen. I really couldnt describe it..all my emotions were mixed up right now.....

BRYSON'S POV

It hasnt been that long since Royalty left with her brother. As hard as I was trying to push the kiss aside. I grabbed my keys and began to make my way towards Asia's house.

^5 minutes later^

Asia: Bry.....

Me:(distracted) Hmm?

Asia: are you ok, son? You've been quiet for a while short now. Whats up?

Me:(snaps outta thoughts)....Me and ummm Royal....kissed.

Asia:(in shock) what!! When???

Me: Today...she umm..she stopped by the studio, luckly in the time that I needed her. She was umm..we were umm... yo, all I know is that we kissed... and it felt...right.

Asia: how did she re-act?

Me: she walked left and had J'zon pick her up.

Asia: wow.

Me: do you think she gonna still come tonight?

Asia:I hope so...

S* I hope so too.
