"Now once I give you my address you can't be popping up like you crazy or something." Milan joked, switching the phone to the other ear. It was the next day and she had just wrapped up her first session of Chemo with Elijah a few hours prior.

"Na' why on Earth would I do dat? I ain't neva been dat crazy." Elijah said.

"I mean who knows..you could be a crazy psychopath out to kill me."

"If I wanted ta' kill you, I woulda' by now Milan." He laughed. "Now send me ya damn address."

Doing as he said, not before smacking her teeth first, she put the phone on speaker all while texting Elijah her address. She heard his phone vibrate, letting her know he received it.

"You'on live too far, a nice lah' drive tho'. I'll be thea in 30. Sound cool?"

"Yeah, just text me when you're outside or whatever."

"Aight."

He hung up, causing Milan to frown.

"No bye or nothing?" She asked no one in particular, being that she was sitting alone in her room. Sighing, she plugged her phone up and stood, straightening up her room a little to pass time. Arima and Shauna went to watch a movie and out to lunch while Milan was at the hospital with Elijah.

After straightening up her room, Milan still had 20 minutes left and decided to do a quick beat.

"Ok so next I'm gonna conceal my eyebrows with my L.A. Girls Pro Conceal in the shade Auburn." She laughed, looking at herself in the mirror. If she had the time, she'd definitely do Youtube videos on the side.

Time slipped away and just as she applied her baking powder, her phone vibrated.

Elijah(1:48 pm)
Outside.

"Shit!" Milan yelled, hurrying and blending the last bit of product on her face.

Looking in the mirror, she turned the light in her bathroom off, attempting to walk away. She didn't get far before turning around.

"I just...I can't. I have to finish." She mumbled before applying her highlight. She winged her eyeliner almost perfectly before grapping her Mac Fix Plus finishing spray. She smiled in satisfaction, finally grabbing her things and locking up.

Walking out, her she smiled, spotting Elijah leaning against his all black Camero. He looked up at her, curving his lips in attempt to smile. He quickly stopped himself as she approached.

"It took you 15 minutes ta' leave ya crib?"

"I don't play when it comes with my highlight. Now where are we going?" Milan asked, smiling. She was curious as to what exactly such a reserved, closed person like Elijah did for fun.

He'd never tell it, but he also had no idea what he was doing. He didn't know it then, but he'd soon realize that there was just something about Milan that made him do shit he never would.
