Under the Influence

Get Off

Chris POV

I've been having a really good time with Shawnie. She's so calm and level-headed, and that's what I need right now. She calms me down just by talking to me, and when she touches me, I instantly feel at ease. I love that she has that effect on me because that's what I need. She also challenges me, and I like that. She doesn't just tell me what I want to hear; she tells me the truth. I don't have many people like that around me. Sometimes, all they do is tell me what they think will make me happy. I don't need that all the time; I need someone who's going to tell me when I'm wrong, and I've found that in Shawnie.

After dinner, we walked out of the restaurant, and I stopped to light my blunt.

"Is weed even legal in Florida?" She asks

"I don't know," I say, laughing.

The paparazzi mob us, taking pictures and asking me questions again. I thought I'd stop to answer a couple of questions while we were waiting for the valet to bring my car around to the front.

"I heard you and Drake got into an argument earlier. Is that true?" One guy asks while recording me.

"I guess I got something he wants. He's just a hater." I say laughing.

"Why would you say something like that?" Shawnie whispers to me.

"So Drake is hating on you?" The guy asks

"If they hating, then you know you got it!" I say, hitting my blunt. "Yo, is weed legal here?" I ask, but they all start laughing, leaving me without an answer.

I knew it was wrong, but I've been in my own world, recording and just doing my own thing, and I wanted to get the people talking about me again. So I got them to take pictures of me, well, us now, I had to do something else. I thought it would be a good idea to give the Paparazzi a show. I knew Shawnie wouldn't like it, but hey, she'll get over it.

Shawnie looks at me, laughing, and I put my arm around her, then go in for a kiss. When she realized what I was doing, she turned her head, and I kissed her on her cheek. They went crazy, taking pictures.

Valet finally pulls up with my car. I tell them goodbye, help Shawnie into the car, I get in myself, then we drive away.

"Chris, why would you do something like that?" She says to me with an attitude.

I look over and smile at her, "I had to, you looked so beautiful."

"Oh, please, you did that on purpose. Listen, I'm somewhat okay with this whole situation, but if you're going to keep doing things like that, I'm not going to go anywhere with you." She says with a serious face.

"Okay, I'm sorry." I laugh, "You got me. Kiss me now, then." She leans over and kisses me on the lips.

I love this girl's lips. Damn. I was so into it, I couldn't keep my focus on the road. She pulled away, and I put my right hand on her left thigh while pulling over to the shoulder of the road.

"What are you doing?" She asks

Once I put the car in park, I leaned over to her side of the car and started kissing her. We got pretty into it, and I wanted to do her right there, but I know she isn't that type..... But I had to try my luck. I put my hand under her dress, and she stopped me.

"You know-"

I cut her off, "Yeah, I know. I can wait until we get back."

She laughs, "You're steadily trying me."

"I need to see how far you'll go," I say, smiling.

She laughs, "Let's go back to your condo."

"What are we gonna do when we get back there?"
