Mine (Norminah)

Chapter 2

Normani's POV

   "I don't know Ally. I just got so pissed and I couldn't keep my mouth shut. I'm just hurt you know? After what she said I was like damn wow. Then you guys spend the whole next day together and I didn't hear from her until right before meet and greet. I think I have the right to be upset!" After everything that happened with DJ I went straight to the tour bus and cuddled up with Ally. That was five hours ago. Lo sent a text saying she was going to spend the night on the other tour bus with Dinah. Of course.

   "Mani first, I need you to calm down. You know your anxiety kicks in your breathing messes up and neither one of us can deal with that right now. I can't say I relate because I've never been in a situation like yours. But I can say that you guys love each other very much, hell hiding a relationship from the public for two and a half years means that it's important to the both of you. I mean, unless the sex really is that good," she asks while side eyeing me. I can't help the giggle that escapes my lips at her last comment.

   "Phenomenal." I say with a straight face just to assess her reaction. Seconds later we're both gasping for air on between our laughs. This is why I came to Ally, she's the best big sister best friend a girl could ask for.

   "But really Ally, I'm being serious. The sex is earth-shattering." And once again we find ourselves double over clutching our sides in a fit of laughter.

   "But really Ally. It was my idea to turn things down a bit for the tour, but even before then we were drifting apart. It's hard to understand. It's like she gets closer to Mila and Lo and distances herself from me, her girlfriend. It's a lot to think about right now. But on to a happier note, how's things going with Lo? You guys just celebrated eight months right?" As soon as her own undercover girlfriend is mentioned Ally blushes and hides her face in her hands.

   "Yeah we're good. She's good, she's perfect. Mani I didn't think that I'd feel this way about her, about anyone after Troy in all honesty. After me and him broke up she was my biggest supporter, aside from you and Dinah of course. After every show or event we'd eat together, stay up four hours talking, and falling asleep in each others arms. I really didn't expect her to prove it when she said she'd show me how a princess is supposed to be treated. Mani she's just so perfect. Everyone sees her as this hard core girl in all black, but she's so gentle and the cutest girl in the world. I love everything about her Mani." She gushed with sincerity in every work and a genuine smile on her lips. Just watching her talk about Lo you can see the love, adoration, ad pure joy she gets just by thinking of her girlfriend. I wish me and Dinah were still like that.

   "Alright Alz, as much as I would love to hear you obsess over Lo I'm still depressed and sleepy. Thanks for listening mama. Goodnight." As soon as I heard her murmur goodnight she was connecting her FaceTime so she could fall asleep with her girlfriend.

   So that leaves me here laying in my bunk at 4:30 in the morning wishing Dinah was here to cuddle me and whisper sweet nothings in my ear. But alas here I am going through our pictures trying not to tear up while reliving the memories associated with every picture. That went on for another three hours until I finally felt myself drifting off to sleep. And of course someone decides to call me right before I close my eyes. I look over and see a picture of a banana with heart eyes which meant it was Mila.

   "Mila it's 7:30 in the morning and I was finally about to go to sleep. What do you want?" I could see her flinch back at the annoyance in my tone before she wiped the sleep out of her own eyes.

   "Mani I just wanted to talk to you, see how things were holding up." It was too early in the morning for fake modesty and I was too tired to beat around the bush.

   "Mila what did Dinah tell you and what do you want to know?" I asked finally sitting up in my bunk careful not to wake my bus mates.

   "I just wanted to make sure everything was okay between you and Di. She spent half the night crying to Lo and the other half coming up with a master plan with Lo and Ashlee" she paused. "What did she do so bad that it's got her locked up in the dog house and itching to get out?" I couldn't help but sigh. I had finally gotten my siutationship off my mind and Mila calls and brings everything right back up.

   "Mila it's a lot going on right now. Way too much to talk about over the phone, especially at eight in the morning. Let's meet up for lunch tomorrow before the concert and we'll talk?"

   "Sure, let's make it one though. We both know we're not morning people and that would work out bad for the both of us" she says with a chuckle. "Night Mani, I love you."

   And for the second time in twelve hours I'm left alone in my bunk with thoughts of Dinah Jane running through my mind. Hopefully a good couple hours of sleep and a heart with heart with Mila will prepare me to see DJ tomorrow. I don't think I could handle another concert with no interaction at all. It hasn't even been a day and I already miss her. Her smile, the dimples she tries to hide, that damn speaker she's always carrying around. Physically and emotionally I miss Dinah Jane, I miss my girlfriend.
