A BBD Story

Backstage Action

Jacqueline

Tonight is the night that I, finally get to see Bobby Brown in concert. I might even get to meet him. I decided to bring Helen along with me. Val came to pick us up.

Jacqueline: I just can't believe that I actually get to go see Bobby Brown!
Valarie: We spent most of this year with three celebrities, and you about to be starstruck over ugly ass, Bobby Brown.
Jacqueline: Don't get slapped, Val. You my best friend and all, but, that's my future husband.
Valarie: No. Ricky is your future husband.
Jacqueline: Rick don't even like me like that. We just friends.
Helen: That's how it all starts. You saw Lion King.
Jacqueline: You can't compare us to animated lions.
Helen: I don't care what you say, that boy wants you.
Valarie: Just the other day, he was saying how much he love her.
Jacqueline: Stop lyin. He ain't say that.
Valarie: Yes he did. When we had a movie night at their house and you didn't come cause you had to babysit.
Jacqueline: He was at my house that night.
Helen: Why was he at the house when mom and dad were gone?
Jacqueline: He came over on his own.
Valarie: A better question is, what happened?
Jacqueline: Nothing happened. He helped me with Kenny and them, then I went to sleep.

Helen and Valarie looked at each othet and shook their heads.

Jacqueline: What?
Valarie: So, you think he came over to help babysit?
Jacqueline: I don't know why he came over.
Helen: Lord, help me. My little sister's stupid.
Valarie: Jacq, when a guy comes over at that time of night, and your parents are gone, then he was trynna get some.
Jacqueline: Rick might not be the smartest person, but, he ain't stupid enough to think that I was gone sleep with him.
Helen: I don't know about that. You know guys are dumb.
Jacqueline: You ain't lyin about that.

I never thought that Rick would have feelings for me. If he did then I would have notice something. Well, it doesn't matter because we would never work as a couple. He annoys the hell out of me. But then, again, he is kinda cute, and he can be really sweet. He was there for me when I was crying over Aaron. And he is real nice to Brooke, and he knows how to deal with Kenny and Abby's crazy ass.

Valarie: Be 100% honest with me right now. Do you have feelings for Rick?
Jacqueline: I don't know.
Valarie: It's a yes or no question!
Jacqueline: I don't know! I never thought about it until now.
Helen: So if he asked you to be his girl, what would you say?
Jacqueline: Yes, I guess. But he won't do that.
Helen: How do you know that?
Jacqueline: Cause if he wanted to, he would have done it by now.

Helen

We get to the concert and show the guards our passes. When we get backstage, I see all six members of New Editon. I almost freak when I see Johnny walk by, but, I have bigger fish to fry.

Helen: Yo, Rick, let me talk to you for a second.
Rick: Wassup, Helen.
Helen: Let's get straight to the point. You like my sister, but, you ain't tell her yet. Why is that?
Rick: I was going to tell her, but,  she fell asleep before I could.
Helen: Ohhh, so that's why you came over that night.
Rick: Yeah. What did you think I came over for.
Helen: I thought you was trynna hit.
Rick: Nah, I wouldn't disrespect your parent's house like that.
Ron: That's not what he told us! He told me and Mike that they was gone knock boots!

Ricky pulled Ron down into a headlock to shut him up. They both fell to the floor and wrestled for like 15 minutes. Then they let go of each other and Ricky gets up all tired and out of breath.

Helen: Are you okay?
Rick: Yeah. And I'm going to tell Jacqueline by the end of the night.
Helen: No, don't do that.
Rick: Why not? I thought you wanted me to.
Helen: I got a better way. Just follow my lead.

Jacqueline was watching Bobby perform so it was hard to get her attention. But, every once in a while she turns around and look at Ricky. So, I "flirt" with Ricky to make her jealous. I start to feel up on his arms and he looks at me like I'm crazy.

Rick: What are you doing?
Helen: I'm helping you get Jacq.
Rick: Ohhh. For a second there, I thought you was trynna get at me.
Helen: Nigga, please. I'm Johnny's girl.

We both start laughing. He told me stories about him an Jacq. Most of them were funny, which made it easier for us to look like we was flirting.

Helen: So, you got hard just cause she sat on your lap?
Rick: I tried to hold back, but, she was grinding on me. Stop laughing, that shit ain't funny.
Helen: I'm sorry. Quick, gimme a kiss before she looks away.

Ricky gives me a little peck on my cheek then Jacqueline turns away.

Rick: Did she see it?
Helen: I think so.

Jacqueline

I look onto the stage watching Bobby perform Roni. That's my favorite song, but I can't focus because I keep looking at Helen and Ricky.

Mike: Why you lookin sad? We hooked you up with backstage passes and you not even gone enjoy yourself.

I nodded in Rick's direction.

Mike: I see.
Jacqueline: And she don't even like him. She just tryna make me jealous.
Mike: Is it working?
Jacqueline: A little.
Mike: Hold on, I got you.

He waits until Bobby walks off the stage. I see Mike tell him something, but, I can't hear. Then Bobby walks up to me.

Bobby: Jacqueline? I hear you need my help.
Jacqueline: You heard right.
Bobby: Follow me and don't look back.

I follow Bobby into his dressing room and locks the door.

Bobby: Now all we gotta do is wait.
Jacqueline: Wait for what?
Bobby: For Rick. He knows what goes on in my dressing rooms. Don't worry, he'll come for you.

Rick

Helen was supposed to help me get with Jacqueline. I thoughtit was working until I saw her go into Bobby's dressing room.

Rick: Helen, she just went in there with Bobby.
Helen: It's over for you then cause she loves her some Bobby Brown.

I bang on the door after seeing that it was locked.

Rick: Yo, Bobby, open up! That's my girl you got in there!

They take a couple of seconds to respond. Jacqueline opens the door.

Rick: What the hell you doin in here with him!
Jacqueline: What the hell you doin kissin my sister!
Rick: So, you did see that. You were jealous, weren't you?
Jacqueline: *Sucks teeth* & *rolls eyes*
Rick: I knew it! I knew you wanted all this!

She blushes a little.

Rick: Now, give daddy a kiss.
Jacqueline: You play too much.
Rick: I ain't playin.

I lean in and kiss her and, of course, she kisses me back cause I got it like that. Unfortunately, the kiss didn't last long.

Ron: Yo, Rick, we have to go. Now. Brooke is in jail.
Rick: Oh shit.

I don't know what he did, but, we gotta get our uncle.

A/N: @FutureBlackDoctor I'm sorry it took me so long to update. I went Alabama last week and I got back home early yesterday morning. All I have to say is, I'm glad to be back where wifi is.
