CHAPTER 6
- Adlemi's PoV
He kissed me.
I wasn't expecting it, but I quickly went along with it. Baeza wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him so our chests were touching. I wrapped my arms around his neck, crawling my fingers up to his hair, tangling them. He licked on my lower lip, asking for entrance which I gave him. It felt amazing as our tongues moved back and forth in sync. Before things got a bit too far, I pulled away to catch my breathe. I searched for his eyes and see that they were already locked on mine. We kept on staring at each other, longer than I expected. My lips already missed his.
He broke the silence, "I don't want to leave you" I felt tears dripping down my cheeks. Baeza, wiped them away and gives me a tight hug. "I don't want you to leave, but you have too...It's your job and your fans need you," I said hugging him. "My fans can wait..." and stormed out of the house with tears in his eyes and keys in his hands.What the..? Before I could stop him...He was already on the road.
Hopefully he Dosen't do something that he will end up regretting later on.
- Baeza's PoV
"My fans can wait..." was the last thing I said to Adlemi, before storming out of the house, with tears in my eyes and my car keys. I hadn't noticed how much it hurt me to think that I wouldn't be able see Adlemi for a while, if only I could convince my manager....
I hadn't known how much I've been longing for the kiss
...ever since she kissed me up on stage. The kiss made me realize how much my feelings have grown for her.
After an hour ride, I got off my car and head to my managers house.
After three knocks my manager opens up. "hey, I need to talk to you." I say. He nods his head and steps out of the doorway and lets me go inside. "What's up?" he asked. "it's difficult for me to say this, I know you won't believe it nor would you let me..." He shakes his head for me to continue, "you know that girl who everybody's talking about...right?" He nods.
"Okay, well...first things first, she's not my girlfriend. She's my friend." At the moment I had to look at him too see his reaction. Just like I thought, he was shocked and....he doesn't believe me.
"I'm dead serious. Now, what I actually came here for...is to ask you permission to let me take her with me to my concerts. I beg you." I said at last. It hurt me to see that he doesn't believe me, his expression says it all. I need to prove to him that she's different from all the girls. She's not a distraction for me, but I think that's too late.
He hesitated and said, "Anthony, actions speak louder than words. You know how I am about you bringing people to the concerts with us. She's not your girlfriend? Is she a side hoe? Anthony, I've known you for as long as I can remember, you don't have friends that are girls. You don't catch feelings."
Dammit!
"But can't you see I've changed? I'm not the player I use to be ever since Adlemi came! I know you've known me for the longest time! How can you not see the change in me? yes, I've brought many hoes to my Hotel. Yes, I have side hoes...but Adlemi is NOT one. She is NOT! She's different. What I'm going to tell you is gonna be hard for you to believe...but my feelings for her are strong. I can't stop thinking about her 24/7. She's constantly on my mind!"
"She makes me happy when I'm around her. I'm me when I'm with her. I haven't smoked for a while! I've forgotten that weed even existed! I've changed because of her. She's changing me, Max! Just the thought of her not being near me...hurts! I never thought it'd be this hard...she's changing me..."
