Don't Forget About Me (An August Alsina Love Story) (Completed/ Editing)

Chapter 9 : "Old Friends"

I walked into work feeling happy as hell after last night with August. It seemed as if my feelings for him were awaken up after that kiss. It almost seemed like everything was back to normal too. Like we picked up where we left off.

Evette must off caught on to me smiling all hard and squealed, hugging me.

"Ahhh, Kay Kay, you got some dick?!" She asked, grinning. "Those condoms came in handy, huh?"

"What, Evie? No!" I said, scrunching up my nose. "We didn't have sex."

"Aw damn," She said looking disappointed. "But uh, well gimme back the condoms then."

I laughed, shaking my head at her crazy ass. But I handed her the condoms anyway.

"Thanks, girl, imma need em tonight," She said turning to look in the mirror to fix her hair.

I raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

"Oh well because me and Lowkey got some things to handle tonight," She winked.

I fake gagged and got ready to go up on stage myself. My good mood seemed to make me more energetic than usual. I knew I was gonna be doing my thing tonight.

After Evie was done, I strolled up on stage as Reggie announced me and swung wildly around the pole. August's song, Numb, came on and his voice made me even more excited. I used my flexibility for good use.

When the song was over I collect all the money and counted it as I went to the dressing room. I counted a total of 5 grand which was tremendous for me. Never had I made so much in one night.

When I reached the door the dressing room, a hand scooped me and pulled me into the hallway. I gasped, scared as ever only to see August laughing. I rolled my eyes slapping his hand away.

"August, don't play with me. There's a lot of pervs in here," I said, seriously. He laughed.

"Come on, babeh, I was just playing. Why you acting up after we had a good night last night?"

I smirked, looking down at my money. "I'm not. You just scared me."

He leaned down to kiss my neck. "My bad, Kay. I just had to get you to myself after you killed the stage with my song."

I smirked, wrapping my arm around his neck. "Thank you."

"But look, I gotta run to the studio in a few. I just thought I'd come and ask you if you'd come wit me to a party tonight."

"Party?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

He nodded. "Sevyn Streeter's album release party. Thats like my sis and I wanna go show her some love. I don't wanna go alone though."

I looked down. "Ion know, August. Wouldn't people talk about you bringing a stripper with you to a party?"

"Com'on, Kay, stop thinking like that. Do I ever give a fuck about what someone says about me?"

I shrugged. "No."

"Exactly. So why should I now?"

"Because you got a reputation to maintain now."

"Mane," He sucked his teeth. "Fuck my reputation. I'm takin' you to this party and thats that. No questions, iight?"

I nodded, looking down. "Okay."

He smiled, kissing my cheek. "And if Beyonce herself asked me to go with her to this party, I'd still wanna take ya nameless ass."

I laughed, hitting his arm. "Oh shut up."

"Be ready by 9, okay?"

I nodded again. "Okay."

He walked off and I turned around to go in the dressing room. Once I opened the door I hit something and heard an "Ouch".
