She beckoned one of the members of her security. "Kenyon go get me that girl at the bar.." she began.
"That's specific." He shot back sarcastically.
Nicki just stared at him straight faced, unblinking. "Like I said, go get me that girl at the bar...

I traced aimlessly over my floral design of a pencil skirt. The sketch was already perfection in my eyes but there were some minor details I knew Suzanne would hone in on. I smiled as I worked. I knew by the time I made it home Nicki would be back and New York and I, back in her warm embrace.
Besides our breakup in July this was the longest time I we've went without seeing each other. I was so excited I could barely sleep the night before, tossing and turning before giving up on sleep altogether around 7am. I used the extra time to curl my hair and make my tired eyes pop. I looked as happy as I felt.
My stomach rumbled in annoyance, once again reminding me why I shouldn't have skipped lunch.Thankfully Kelly came in for the save ten minutes later with takeout.
"Damn Bey, don't choke." Kelly frowned at me.

I slurped the noodle hanging out of my mouth. "Sorry."
"Skipped lunch again?"
I nodded. "Deadline."
Kelly gave me a knowing look. "At least you're in the clear until the launch."
"Not exactly."
There were still a million little details left on my plate that needed to be tended to. Even though I was a junior designer on paper, I had the workload of someone getting paid more to do the same duties. I would address that with Suzanne later though.
"I'm stuck doing everyone's bitch work and on top of that Nicki is gonna be here soon even though I can't really afford to play this weekend, but I haven't seen her in so long I'm gonna explode if we don't spend any time together." I was whining. I could hear in my ears how much of a baby I was being.
