Shanice POV
I'll make sure to hire a bodyguard to be with you at ALL times -Shawn
I cannot believe this shit. I don't want a damn bodyguard following me around everywhere I go. I'm an independent woman.
No
And with that response I threw my phone on my bed and went to flat iron my hair. Few minutes later I heard my phone ringing but decided to ignore it but it just kept ringing.
"Ugh." I put the flat iron downed and headed to where my phone was. "Yes?"
"Is this Shanice Jackson speaking?" a woman voice came through.
"Yes this is she. Is there some type of problem?"
"No not at all. Actually Mr. Blake from Blake Co. and Inc. wanted me to call you, Ms. Jackson, to let you know that you have gotten the job as his ne PA," the lady informed me.
"Really? Are you serious?" I ask feeling my excitement going overboard.
"Quite. I never saw him as excited as he was to make you his new PA. See you Monday Ms. Jackson at 10." And with that she hung up.
I jumped screamed at the top of my lung like a thirteen years old. I returned back to finishing my hair still feeling a lil giddy. In the middle of applying light make-up I hear a knock on my door. I quickly put on my dress, the yellow feature going well with my complexion, slipped on my nude four inch heels and grabbed my pouch and ran to open the door and revealed Jhay'quan.
"You look beautiful," he says stepping inside the apartment.
"Thanks." I closed the door behind him and turned to face him. He looks me up and down then bends down as if to give me a kiss but I move my head making him catch my cheek.
A low chuckle escapes his lips. "Four weeks of seeing each other and I'm still not allowed to kiss you?"
"I told you I wasn't going to make this easy." I look up at him to see him faking a hurt look. "Plus you'll ruin my make up."
He kisses me again on the cheeks and say, "I'm going to win you over and let me in, Ma." I look up at him and see the intensity in his eyes which scares and thrill me a little.
"Come on, let's go, we're going to be late for the show." I grab his in mines and lead him out of my apartment and towards his car hoping to change the subject and fast.

When we got to the little café outside of ATL the place is pack and the smell of soul food was in the air. Jhay'quan leads me to a booth for two in the back corner of the room for privacy. Pulled my seat out for me and goes to his after I sat down.
"Did I mention how beautiful you looked tonight?" he asks picking up his menu but keeping his gaze on me.
"Ha, no I don't-" but I was interrupted by the waitress asking for our orders.
"What would you guys like for tonight?" she asks us but openly checking Jhay'quan out. I roll my eyes and placed my order and so did Jhay who was clearly ignoring her.
"Did I tell you bout me getting the job?" I ask getting excited all over again.
"You did? Congrats." He got up from his seat and came around the table giving a bear hug.
We talked some more while waiting for our food and the soft poetry being said in the background set a whole mellow mood on the place. We laughed and joked around with light flirting and touching from time to time. After we ate people were starting to move to the dance floor in the middle of the room.
