Downtown Chick(*August Alsina Story)

Chapter 7

*August P.O.V.*

"Y'all niggas crazy man." I said grabbing a drink off the bar and going sit down. Me and my dudes had just come from the studio. We had been there for about two hours working on new music. In the studio I felt at home. I felt my brother's presence. I was doing something good in my life and making lots of money for it and making my brother proud.

I was couldn't wait to see Candy. I mean that girl was beautiful. She was too perfect. From her long black hair, her thick thighs, and big ass, and lawd them tattoos and nose piercing. Then she was smart too. She was the definition of perfection. The first time I saw her at the show I couldn't look away. She just caught my eye and I knew that I needed to have her in my life.

"So when we gonna meet this Candy girl?" My nigga Rocky said. I laughed. Before I could reply I heard the door open and in walked, Candy and her friend. I got up and started walking towards them. Candy started smiling when I opened my arms and motioned for her to walk into them. "Hey beautiful." I said hugging her. I moved my right hand down to her ass and gripped it as she jumped a little from how hard I was squeezing it. I let her go and examined her. She was way shorter without heels on. Me being 6'4 I liked my girls kind of tall. Candy was only about 5'5 but it didn't really matter that much to me.

"We'll be back." I said grabbing Candy's hand and leading her into the bedroom. I shut and locked the door and sat down on the bed. I motioned for her to sit on my lap and she inched her way over. When she sat down I wrapped my arms around her waist. "You look cute." I told her checking out her outfit. "Beautiful,smart, and can dress." She started smiling.

"Oh August, I need to find an ATM cause I don't have any cash on...." I cut her off. She thought I was going to inviter her on a date and not pay for her stuff. My momma raised me better than that, plus I have more than enough money for myself only.

"Shut that shit up. Whenever you with me you don't have to pay for nothing cause that's not right. I gotchu. Whatever you want I got it." I said swooping her up bridal style as I unlocked the door and exited the room still carrying her. Once I entered the living room, I put her down and everyone started to gather around us. Candy stood quietly by my side. "Y'all we leavin." I said and everyone got there stuff and we headed out.

*Candy P.O.V*

"Y'all we leavin." August said and everyone either started walking out the door or grabbed the rest of the stuff they were bringing with them. Me and August were the last ones to leave the room besides the body guard and as we were walking he slipped his hand into mines. I felt tingles like I always did when he touched me. I felt as though my life wouldn't be complete without him. I needed this man. And I barely knew him.

Once we exited the hotel lobby, there were some paparazzi and a lot of fans. The sidewalk was almost filled with people. We tried our best to ignore them but it was kind of hard when all you heard was names being called and loud shouting. It was hectic. Some people were even trying to jump pass the security guards. I started to laugh a little cause this shit was crazy. I don't think I'll ever get used to this sort of attention. As we started walking down Canal the crowd had died down but they still had a little group following us.

"You alright?" August asked looking down on me. I nodded and we continued walking. I gazed around until my eyes landed on a black Tahoe that had been following us since we left the hotel. "August?" I asked tugging on his hand a little. "What's wrong momma?" I pointed over there towards the truck, "Who's that."

"That's just some extra security incase things get too out of hand and to take our bags, so we don't have to hold them." I made and O shape with my mouth. We started to cross the street and it seemed as though we were heading to footlocker. As soon as we got in it got crazy. Phones being pulled out, cameras flashing. His fans were really loyal.

The store manager approached from the back. "Hi Mr. Alsina. Would it be possible for maybe a meet and greet? Just for an hour or so. Many customers are fans of yours. The store can send you a check." I looked at Augusta and he looked at me as if to ask is it ok. I nodded and he turned back to the man. "Nah it's cool patna. Y'all don't have to pay me. Me and my girl gon get some stuff outta here and by the time we check out in about thirty everything needs to be set up, cool?" The manager nodded and started calling people and giving orders to workers. I started to tingle cause he called me his girl.

The security guards began to push everyone out of the store and locked the doors. I looked outside and a line had began to form of people waiting to see August. I gotta a twitter notification from footlocker. I usually get notifications from them when new shoes and apparel come out.

@NOLAFootlocker: August Alsina and Rocky Diamonds meet and greet today in thirty minutes at 4:45, on Canal St.

I went and retweeted it and then locked my phone, holding it securely in my hand. Once everyone was out the store I gazed around for Asia. I finally found her after about two minutes. She was standing in the corner talking to Rocky Diamonds! She had always loved him and I was happy she finally got to meet him. Wow! Life was just going great right now.

August came back over to where I was.

*August italics*

"I'm sorry about all this. But I love my fans."

"it's fine. Remember just 2 days ago I was one of the ones waiting outside to come and see you."

"Oh really. Damn in love with a nigga huh?"

"Don't start Mr. Alsina."

"You see any shoes you like Momma?"

"Yeah actually. I have always always always wanted some Taxi 12s but they never had my size when I had the money. So I think I'm going to get those and some white gloves." *starts to reach for wallet in purse*

"What I told you baby. I got this. You don't need to pay for anything today. What size you need?"

"Six."

We started waking to the register. The cashier was a pretty young girl about sixteen to so. She looked like she was about to faint.

"Say love, can I get a size six in the Taxis and in the while Gloves please?" The girl nodded quickly and dashed off to the back to get the shoes. She came back about five minutes later and placed the two boxes on the counter and added the totals.

"Your total will be $267.48." I looked at August. He took out a stack of cash and pulled out three hundreds and told the girl to keep the change. The girl took the money and bagged the shoes. August grabbed the bag and handed it to one of the security guards and he left out the store I'm guessing to go place it in the car.

"You not getting anything?" He shook his head and we went back to the front of the store which now had a table and a chair behind it. I picked up a piece of paper off of the stack on the table and looked it over. It was a picture of August and Rocky from August's Instagram. I guess they were going to sign those and hand them off.

I pressed the lock button on my phone and saw that it was 4:40, meaning they were starting in five minutes. I went and say down on one of the try-on benches and Asia came and sat next to me.

*Asia Bold*

"Having fun sweet cheeks?"

"Yes! OMG girl I talked to Rocky fucking Diamonds! You don't understand how much I love him! I almost passed out when he started talking to me at the hotel, when you and August disappeared."

"I'm sorry."

"No girl it's fine. I'm not going to be all up under you. I want you to enjoy yourself and have fun. Candy you're on a "date" with a celebrity. Not only a celebrity but August Alsina! I'm so happy for you Maw."

"Thank you AsianPersuasion! I'm happy for you also. We might both have celebrity boyfriends!"

"The lawd is good!"

"All the time." I said laughing and giving her a side hug. I couldn't ask for anyone better in my life. This girl was my other half with her crazy self. I saw one of the security guards heading towards the door, I'm guessing to unlock it, so I went and walked over to August who was sitting at the table. We were just looking at each other for a while smiling and he patted his lap for me to sit down. I sat on his lap sideways to where I wasn't in the way. Soon after the people started flowing in.
