Le'annaMarie's POV
*June 24th, 2016*
Early Saturday morning, Haley and I woke up and went to the gym- or was escorted there by my bodyguard- for about an hour. It felt great to finally get a good work out in after my busy schedule.
"Good job, girl." Haley high-fived me before taking a long drink of water.
"Thanks and you too." I said.
"It's kind of a random thought but I wonder if you have received any fan mail or will be anytime soon." Haley asked.
"I already have-"
"Really, did you find it?" Haley asked excitedly.
"Find what?" I asked curiously.
"Oh, um, your biggest fan. You know, like, figure out who they are," She said quickly, "I guess I should've said them." She smiled nervously.
"Right..." I eyed her suspiciously, "but, yeah I have fan mail- just haven't had the chance to open it." I said.
"Well, maybe tonight we can do that? Maybe another sleep over with Veronica?" Haley offered.
"Of course!" I said and Haley's jaw suddenly dropped as she looked behind me.
"What?" I asked.
"It's Chris. Chris Thompson and three other hot guys." She said and I panicked. Oh no...
I smiled as he got closer and waved. I mentally sighed in relief that I remembered to slip my tank top back on before he seen me in just a sports bra and shorts.
"Hey, Chris." I said
"Well, damn...you look good, Le'annaMarie." He said as he stared me up and down.
"Uh...what are you doing here?" I asked crossing my arms.
"What are you, like, following her?" Haley asked as she grabbed her bag off the floor.
"Haley..." I warned through gritted teeth.
"Nah, you're friend is good- she's funny. But, I seen you were here on my snaps- I guess you have a fan that caught you here." He said and I shifted uncomfortably. That would be so weird if someone was watching me or us earlier.
"Oh...so you did follow me here." I said and he shrugged.
"How else was I supposed to get your number?" He said. Haley smirked and turned around.
"I was serious about wanting to hang out. I promise I'd show you a good time." He said handing me his phone.
"Well, Chris...what the heck. Sure, we can hang out." I said as I typed in the number for a separate phone I have. Only trusted people like Miles and Veronica have my real number.
"Alright. Tonight I'll see you. I can pick you up from your spot and we'll hit the town. Go out to dinner. It'll be nice." He said. Dang. He had this all planned out.
"I'll see you then at..."
"Seven."
"Okay." I said as I stood up from the bench.
"Okay. And wear something nice for me." He said with a wink.
"Uh, actually, I think I'll come as I am and look nice for me." I said with a little laugh. He laughed at me but I wasn't kidding.
"Bye, Le'annaMarie." He said as he and his friends left the gym.
"Bye, Chris." Haley and I walked out and got into the black truck that we came in.
"So you're going on this date with Chris..." Haley rose her eyebrows, "didn't know you were into him like that."
"I mean, he's alright...okay, truth is, I don't know how to say no!" Haley laughed, "But also, I remember last week at the music conference he talked about doing a collaboration. Hays, this could be a chance for me to get out there if we can work out this collaboration while also helping him."
"Okay. I see nothing wrong. And like you said, whatever choice you make, I support you!" She said.
"Thanks, girl."
"But also keep your eyes open- he's a player. Don't get yourself hurt by falling for his games. Like I did with Ortiz." She reminded me. This is why I love her.
"I hear that. Thanks for looking out, sis." I said and I did hear her out. Though in all honesty, I think my heart only longs for one person... so I'm not too worried about falling for Chris.
