-Prince's POV

Diamond and I haven't spoken in about a week, outside of business that is. I mean, I guess I miss her but just parts of her. I know that sounds really weird and all but it's just that I miss certain things about her but not all of her ways, if that makes any sense. For example, I miss holding her close to me at night, and I miss when I would wake up next to her and she would look so innocent in the light. There are many other things about her that I miss but I just need some time to think on it because it is not on the tip of my tongue at the moment. On the other hand, Janet and I have gotten a whole lot closer the past two weeks. She is really funny, very humble, and sweet. We haven't done anything together yet and I am not going to try to get in her pants. I want to solidify her as a friend first. All I did was ask her out on a date. And no, it won't be here at Paisley Park. I get that a lot of the girls that I date think that it is really nice here but I don't like having first dates here. And besides, it's kind of weird, ya know? Having first dates at your house and your job isn't very normal. I asked her if she would like to go out to an Italian restaurant with me and she said sure. Here's the full story about what happened that day

-Prince's POV

As I am swirling around in circles in my leather black swivel chair, I am taken out of my thoughts by the sound of three knocks at my office door. "Come in." I shout as I continue to swirl around in my chair.

I stop twirling around and sit up straight when I notice that the person who had just walked in my office was Janet. "Hey, Prince." Janet softly says as she enters the office.

I scan her outfit. Not in a sexual way or anything. She is wearing blue denim pants, a black crop top, silver hip chain, and her hair curly framing her face quite nicely, that is for those who were wondering.

It's crazy how when this girl walks in any room, it lights up. She has such great poise, grace, and dominance over every person who's eye that she catches and everyone who's head she turns. You would think that she is the one running everything. But then when she speaks, she lets out a voice that is so soft and so quiet. It's almost calming and soothing in a way. I can just listen to her talk about anything and everything that she wants to and I would label it the most beautiful song in world paired with the most beautiful girl in world "Hey, Janet. What's going on?" I ask as I move my chair closer to my desk.

She sits in the chair that is on the opposite side of my desk across from my seat. It seems as though she is holding back a smile that is threatening to come out. "So I just wanted to clarify this with you first but I am hearing from a few people around here that we have Friday off. Is that true?" Janet asks.

"Yes, Janet and Saturday too." I say with a slight laugh.

"Oh, that's kind of great because there is this movie that my sisters, Rebbie and LaToya both want me to see before they leave to go back to Indiana and I would hate to turn them down for the third time. I know that they would be pissed at me for a long time. But anyways, thanks, by the way. I didn't mean to bother you if I did. I'll talk to you later, though. Bye." Janet says, finally letting her smile break free.

As Janet gets up and walks toward the door, a random thought pops into my head. Being that Janet is going to be busy on Friday but sounds free on Saturday, maybe I could take her out to that nice Italian Resturant. But then again, it might be too straight forward. In my case, I could either go through with this date or spend my night in the studio, which I truly won't mind. I would be fine either way but I should probably make up my mind soon because she is about a centimeter away from walking out that door and this chance is about a centimeter away from being out the window. "Wait!" I shout a little bit louder than I intended to.
