Darrell
Two Weeks Later...
"Thank you Mr. Crawlings, we'll give you a call back soon," said the assistant manager.
"Yes sir. Thank you,"
I walked out with full confidence definitely showing in my body language. This is my second time applying for a job (first time in tenth grade) and I think I have a a pretty good chance that I'll be starting my nine-to-five next Tuesday.
"Hey you," I greeted my girlfriend, Mariah Peyton, with a long and sloppy kiss after I settled into the car.
"Hey babe," she giggled, while wiping saliva off the side of her mouth. "You think you got the job?"
"I think I have a pretty high chance," I stated, while looking at her.
"What?"
"You're beautiful babe," I rubbed the scar on on her chin.
"Oh, shut up," she giggled, looking down. "You just tryin' to get some."
"True," I admitted. "But still, you are," I gave her another kiss.
"Hmhm," she giggled. "This is nice,"
I smiled, pulling back. "You ready to go see Craig?"
"Uh, why do you think I'm over here?"
"Oh shut up," I said, leaning back and taking ahold on her hand.
CJ's Studio
"Wassup cuz?" dapped Craig, my cousin from L.A. "You ready to hit the booth?"
"H-ll yeah. Been waitin' all day to get in. You got everything set up, right?"
He sucked his teeth. "Man, don't you know who I am?"
"No,"
"N-gga, shut yo' a-s up!" he laughed as I did too. "Is yo' girl gon' sing backup for you?"
"H-ll no!" Mariah remarked which made both of us laugh some more. "I'm good with just being behind the scenes,"
"Oh, I see. You one of those groupie chicks,"
Both Mariah and I mugged him up and down. "What the h-ll?"
"N-gga you know I'm just messin' with ya'll two,"
"Mmhmm," Mariah got up and wrapped her arms around my waist. "That's what they all say,"
Soon we started feeling on each other and kissing a little bit; just to make his a-s feel uncomfortable.
"Man, ya'll quit that love bird sh-t," he said, turning back towards the control board while me and Mariah laughed our a-sses off.
"Man, you know we still love you," said Mariah after she calmed down.
"Whatever. You ready cuz?"
After I got myself together, I went over to the halfway torn couch and looked over my rhymes one more time.
"H-ll yeah, I'm ready,"
Mariah
"You wanna listen to ya boy?" Craig asked me while handing out the head phones.
"Of course," I said, grabbing ahold onto them. My head instantly bobbed along to Darrell's voice over the sick a-s beat. I'm so glad CJ is Darrell's cousin. His production skills are CRAZY! Add in Darrell's rhymes skills (which are CRAZY also), they are the perfect music duo. They have a big chance of making it once they add in all the dedication.
