Fatal Attraction (August Alsina fan fic)

chapter two

Skylar Williams

I woke up happy because today was my off day. I walked to my kitchen and started the coffee maker. When my coffee was finished, I sat on the couch and turned on the tv in the living room. I was into a rerun of Living Single until my phone rang.
I picked it up without looking at the caller ID and put my coffee mug down.
"Hello?"
"Wassup ma?" The person on the other end replied.
"Who is this? I didnt look at the caller."
"It's Aug."
I sighed. "Yes?"
"You work today?"
"No, today's one of my few off days. Why?"
"Same for me. You wanna go out for breakfast?"
I hesitated. I didn't really wanna go, but I hadn't eaten and I dont feel like cooking so I'll go just for free food.
"Yeah. I'll meet you. Where we going?"
"Meet me on Cascade road in a half an hour."
"Ok. " I said hanging up.
I finished my coffee then headed to my room to shower. I decided to wash my hair and go natural. After showering, I put on some jeans, a shirt and some Steve Madden combat boots, nothing fancy. I took my Gucci purse because it matched with my outfit and headed to my car.
After 15 minutes of driving, I was there. I got out the car and August greeted me with a hug. I didn't hug back.
"I didn't know we were on a hug basis." I said walking with him.
"I cant get a hug, but I can buy you breakfast? You foul ma."
I laughed alil. "That's because I'm hungry and I dont feel like cooking."
He chuckled. "That aint even right." He said opening the door for me.
I walked in and a lady seated us.
"So tell me about yourself ma." August said when we sat down.
"I'm always working. I barely have days off. My life is pretty much work, ya know? I'm tryna save up money to attend Spelman and help my family."
He nodded his head. "Yeah, Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to survive. I been there before."
I smiled. "Oh really?"
"Yeah, I'm from New Orleans. As a teenager, I aint really have a father figure, so I grew up doing the only thing I knew, moving rocks. I aint really care about nothing but the money, but my brother Mel died and I couldn't do it no more. That's how I got into singing."
"Wow. I didn't know all that."
"Now I'm just tryna do this shit for my family."
"Your life's rough. I just work at Starbucks in the day and bar tending at night."
"Yeah but at the end of the day, it's gonna be worth it. "
"I guess so but I cant keep doing this working two jobs thing. It's too stressful and I'm always tired. "
"So quit one job."
I looked at him like he was crazy. "And how am I supposed to support myself? You think I would be working double if shit was that easy? Nah."
"I can help you out ma."
"And how is that?" I said eating my food. "I got plenty money. Too much. I can lend you some."
I laughed. "You're bold, and I don't want your money. I'm good by myself." August shrugged. "I aint got no problem with it. Let me help you."
"No. I dont want your money. I just met you last night and you tryna give me money? Hm, something aint right."
He laughed. "Aight ma, you got me. I was tryna see if you was like these other females who only want me for my money."
I shook my head. "I don't want your money. I barely even trust you, so why would I want your money?"
"Because I'm August Alsina."
"And? I don't care who you are. I don't accept money from nobody."
He smiled. "I like you ma." I laughed. "I don't know why."
"Cause you independent. Every female I meet want me for my money. You different."
I nodded. "Yup. I'm different because I don't want you. I want this food though."
He laughed. "Wowwwwww. Fronting on a nigga."
I laughed along with him. "You have a nice smile. " He told me.
I smiled. "Thank you."
Surprisingly, this 'date' I guess you can call it was going well. I really enjoyed myself.
When we finished eating and he paid, he walked me to my car.
"I had a good time." I told him.
"Good. Can we do this again?"
I nodded and smiled.
He held his arms open for a hug and I gave in giving him a hug. He kissed my forehead. "Aight ma. Drive safe."
I smiled and got in my car. The whole drive home, I couldn't get my mind off August. I don't know what's gotten into me but I can't stop thinking about him.
When I got home, Tori called.
"Skyyyy." She said.
"Wassup?" I replied.
"Nothing. I'm coming over with D."
"Ok. "
30 minutes later, the doorbell to my apartment was ringing.
I opened the door and D and Tori stepped in.
I smiled widely at them. "Hey."
D looked at me confused. "What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Nothing." I said walking to the couch.
They followed me.
"So why you all cheesing and shit?" D asked. "Exactly witcho smiling ass" Tori said smiling.
"Ok ok. I had a date this morning."
"THERE IS A GOD. Someone wants yo mean ass!" D said.
I rolled my eyes. "Really D?"
He nodded, and Tori asked. "Who was it?"
"This guy named August."
"Oh lawd. This child done went crazy. She fantasizing about months. Jesus take the wheel!" D added.
"Shut up D damn!" Tori snapped. "August who?"
"August Alsina." I replied.
Tori screamed. "YOU LYINGGGGGG. WHAT?! YOU WENT TO BREAKFAST WITH AUGUST ALSINA?!"
I laughed and nodded while D stared at Tori like she was crazy. "Girl if you don't calm yo thirsty ass down!"
I laughed. "I met him last night at the bar. He was flirting and I was uninterested. I didn't even know who he was. Then, he forced me to give him my number and he called me this morning asking me to breakfast."
"Ok, what he look like?" D asked.
"Tall, lightskin, straight white teeth, tattoos. He's fine." I replied.
"What he do? Rap?" D asked.
"No. He sings."
D nodded. "Sounds like my type. Give him my number."
I laughed. "Ew D no. What about Chris?"
D didn't say anything.
"Damon." I said calling him by his name.
"He was a booty call girl. I guess I put it on him good cause he blowing up my phone."
I laughed. "Yassssss bitch! You better werkkkkk!"
He got up and started doing a dance. "Girl yes! I told yall step yall cookies up!"
I laughed while Tori looked at us. "Yall crazy!"
"So when can we meet him?" D asked.
"Um. I wasn't planning on letting yall meet him. He aint even my boyfriend. We're just talking... as friends."
D pursed his lips. "Mhmm. Girl stop acting like you don't wanna be more than friends."
I shook my head. "Nooo."
"Yessss."
"I don't even know him y'all."
Tori smiled and my phone rang.
"Its him. " I told them.
