"Okay bitch, I get you miss your man and all that, but you been coming to my house way too much." Dhaze said bringing in some glasses of wine.

"Shut up D. It's not like I have friends like that, I only talk to you." I said taking a sip of wine.

"It's not my fault you wanna be a damn introvert. I try to put you out there but noo, you wanna be all about the Lordt! Which is good cause you're my free ticket to heaven."

I laughed at her seriousness. "No you need to repent and build a relationship of your own with God. Don't be trying to use me."

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever. At least his tour is ending soon."

"Yeah they're in Albuquerque tonight and on Friday they're supposed to do their last show in Vegas."

"The fact that you know the cities. Do you know the itinerary too?"

"Yes I do actually. He sends it to me and he has his location on just in case when I call or text he doesn't answer I know exactly where he is. I don't play no games, you ain't got nothing to hide so you shouldn't mind."

She just stared at me. "Let me get some more liquor cause your ass is crazy. Girl got the damn find my iPhone on."

I chuckled as she left out the living room. My phone started ringing indicating a FaceTime. I saw it was Kirsh and got happy. He's been on tour since March and the last time I saw him was that week of the BET Awards. After 3 weeks, I'm starting to become a bit lonely so I come to Dhaze house till its time to go home.

I answered and the call was connecting. Soon his face appeared on the screen and I couldn't help but get butterflies.

"Damn babygirl you out here glowing. I miss you." He said biting his lip.

"I miss you too. How's the tour going?"

"It's good and all, but I'm ready to get back to your fine ass."

"I'm ready for you to come back. I think Dhaze is getting tired of me coming over here everyday."

He chuckled. "I actually got a little surprise for you."

"What?"

"A flight out to Vegas."

"Awe you're so sweet. You lucky I'm on vacation and I can actually go."

"Good the flight is for Friday for you and Dhaze. She already knows about it so make sure you pack."

"Oh look at you being sneaky. Alright I'll be ready by then."

"Alright I gotta go. I love you."

"I love you too."

I hung up the call and did a happy dance.

"I see he told you about Vegas huh?"

"I get to see my maaaann! I get to see my maaaaan!!!" I started twerking and Dhaze pulled out her phone to record me.

"GO BEST FRIEND! TWERK THAT SHIT!"

"I wonder what he has planned." I said sitting down.

"Just know you'll love it." She said giving me a devilish smile.

I scrunched up my eyebrows and just ignored her statement. Dhaze makes me question her sanity sometimes.

After landing in Vegas, Kirsh sent a car to pick up Dhaze and I. I was honestly excited to see him. My reverie was broken when Dhaze tapped me letting me know we're at the hotel. We got our keys, got on the elevator and went our separate ways. I unlocked my door and the room was gorgeous. The living room had wine and rose petals. There was a bouquet of roses on the counter and I read it as the bellhop put my bags down.
