                                             Chapter 28:

                                                 Feelings

Zahara:

After taking a nice hot shower, she sprayed on her favorite fragrance from Bath, And Body Works "A Thousand Wishes." After applying the fragrance, she stepped into some sexy lingerie. Leaving the bathroom, she walked into Devon Richardson's bedroom.

There was no way he was going to escape her tonight.

She snuggled up in his sheets which had his scent. She had plans on seducing him tonight, and nothing was going to stand in her way......

                                                  🌟🌟🌟

Gifted:

I stood there staring at him as he walked off giving me his back, I quickly turned around, and walked out the door. Running past everyone I hurried to the bathroom to throw some water on my face.

Gifted?? Nakia called out to me as I ran past her

"I'll be right back," I said as I continued to run past her

Staring in the mirror, I turned the water on and splashed some water on my face.

The last thing I wanted was for, Nakia, to see me "fluttered" so she could make fun of me.

I grabbed a towel and wiped my face off.

Heading back to where everyone was at and there stood, Devon Richardson, the other artists, Stevenson, and Nakia.

"Finally," Nakia said as I walked up to her.

What were you doing in there??? she asked as all eyes started staring at me.

Tink "Treat Me Like Somebody" began to play through his living room speakers.

I stood there as Devon Richardson's eyes connected with mines waiting for my answer.

"Oh girl come on let's sing this song like how we did when we were at Performing Arts school,"  she said bringing me to the front of the room as the others watched.

What?? I asked nervously as I let her take me to the center of the room.

They all started clapping.

"Do it like how we usually do it?" Nakia told me.

She started dancing as an excited Stevenson watched her move her hips back, and forth to the beat.

"Show us what you got" the others shouted from across the room as they got their phones out to record.

I was nervous not because of them watching me, but because Devon Richardson, was also present in the room watching me as well.

He wasn't on a stage he was "present" in front of me.

I knew that I had to get used to performing in front of him, so I started singing the lyrics word for word.

Devon Richardson, was busy on his phone while the others watched me, and Nakia in "awe."

He must have been texting Zahara because he started blushing each time he received a notification.

I rolled my eyes and continued to sing, my heart out. As my eyes connected with everyone else in the room, I found myself constantly staring directly at him as he continued to pay me no mind.

"Treat Me Like Somebody"
Oh yea, yea, yea Oh yea, yea, yea
Oh yea, yea, yea Oh yea, yea, yea
Somebody really is hard to find/ Somebody worth all your time/
Somebody who tells you the truth/ somebody who loves you for you/
Somebody who knows all of your flaws/ and doesn't impose try to control them/
Let's you be free doesn't deceive/
gives you a chance to believe in something/

I started singing higher, as I kept my eyes focused on him causing him to glance up at me. 

Our eyes began to meet as I continued singing the song "word for word." The others started clapping and whistling at me.

Is that too much????? Cause I've been on a search, and I'm losing my hope/ Is that too much/
Is that too much/
trying to find love in a world so cold/
Oh Is that too much???
I just want an answer/
I can't be the only one/
Is that too much??
We ain't got to be perfect/
Just give me a purpose to love/

I just want somebody body 
to treat me like Somebody body/
Won't be like everybody body/
All you got to do is love me for me babe/
I just want somebody body/
to treat me like Somebody body to treat me like Somebody/
I just want somebody body/
to treat like Somebody body/
to treat me like Somebody/
All you got to do is love me for me babe/

I continued singing as he continued to look at me without blinking.

  We started dancing, and moving our hips from "side to side" while the others started clapping as we continued to perform.

Stevenson whistled at Nakia as he watched her "body movement."

It was time for me to perform the second verse of the song.

I broke eye contact with Devon and started singing the second verse as he continued to watch me.

I closed my eyes and started singing again.

Now don't be mislead by the things that I've said in the past/ I was young I was looking for a thrill/ but that didn't last long I was in it for the wrong reasons wrong season wrong person yea/ cause he just wanted one thing and I just wanted something to smile at and live for and hug on I/ I'd rather have quality than quality oh I just want someone that will keep it real with me/

Is that too much??/ Cause I've been on a search and I'm losing my hope/
Is that too much??/ Is that too much?? Trying to find love in a world so cold/
Is that too much??/ I just want an answer/ I can't be the only one/ Is that too much??/ We ain't got to be perfect/ Just give me a reason  to love/

I just want somebody body/ to treat me like Somebody body/ Won't be like everybody body/ all you got to do is love me for me, babe,/

I found myself caught up in my emotions. I started thinking to myself I would never find "true love." I would never get to experience what it was like to have that one "special someone," who loved me unconditionally.

"I gave my all to someone who in the end, just hurt me in return." "When all I ever wanted was for someone to love me for me."

So I just want somebody body/ to treat me like Somebody body/ Won't be like everybody body/ all you got to do is love me for me, babe,/ were my final words that left my lips when I opened my eyes, tears begin to roam freely down my cheeks.

Everyone got up to applaud us for our little performance.

Everyone that is, expect "Devon Richardson."

The tears continued to flow freely.

"I swear it felt as if me, and he was the only two people in the room."

"It was as if he could see straight through me, and was using his eyes to "pierce through my soul."
