I was performing on tour with Passion, my album just hit number 1 on the billboard charts. The label thought it would be a good idea to add me on Passions tour as her opening act. It was actually dope. Everyone knew my songs and sang with me every note. But one song stood out on my album. And that was Forever Don't Last. It was the final song in my set. And once it started everyone screamed and shouted. (InMM). Passion would occasionally come out and join me. Tonight though it was just me and my BGV's. They were killing it tonight. Every run was heart felt. I even had some of my musical idols looking at me with that church mother you Betta sing face on. After the song ended I walked off stage and was greeted by the one and only Jacob.

Jacob : Yo, you killed it tonight. You get better Everytime you open your mouth

Ciara : Thanks Jakey. That means allot coming from you

Passion : So I'mma have to kick you off my tour Soo , you doing it a little too big 😂🤣

All: 😂🤣😊

Ciara : Whatever Passion, I need my own anyway

Jacob : It's coming soon

Kelontae : Hey baby, you did amazing tonight. You had me out there wondering if I was doing enough

Ciara: Now you know you are, in selling raw emotions. I'm in love with you and you know that

Kelontae : I know, I was just joking

We kissed and hugged, I turned and seen Jacob with a look of guilt and hurt on his face. I raised an eyebrow and he smiled it off before he walked away. Truth is I still do wish we could've been sometimes, but I have someone who love me and so does he. I guess forever does last for always. At least we will be best friends forever.

The Next Day

I woke up hearing Kelontae yelling and screaming about something. I could tell it was good news, but I'm sure he could've celebrated more quietly. I sat up and just looked at him, when he turned around and realized I was awake he told whoever he was on the phone with that he would call them back. He smiled and layed next to me. He pulled me down and started cuddling with me.

Kelontae : Sorry for screaming, I just really excited. Im nominated for a stellar award that's all

Ciara : Baby.... That's fantastic. Look at you, think you somebody now huh

We kissed and he somehow managed to get on top of me. Just as things started getting good the room door opened. In walked Passion with a huge smirk on her face

Passion : No ma'am, y'all need to get a room on y'all own tour bus for all that right there

Ciara : Surprised your not busy with Jacob

Passion : Girl bye, he is still sleep. All we did was eat and talk about random shit. He started doing some touchy feely shit and just when I was ready to Ponce the nigga was sleep

Ciara : Oh wow, I can't let you dog my bff like that now. I'm sure it wasn't that lame

Jacob : Damn sure wasn't

We all jumped and turned to see a half sleep Jacob rubbing his eyes. He looked really tired

Passion : Hey sleeping beauty

Jacob : Whatever, you are you dicussing our sex life with Ciara

Ciara : Um, it girl talk

Jacob : With a whole nigga in the room

I looked at Kelontae who was to busy in his phone to realize what was happening around him

Ciara : He's occupied. He ain't Even paying attention to us

Kelontae : Huh......

Ciara : See, what I tell you

Jacob : Still not cool

Passion : So you have never bragged about our sex life with the boys

Jacob stood there silent. He turned on his heels and went to leave, Passion jumped in front of him and looked at him

Passion : Answer my question

Jacob : I mean yeah, but that's different

Passion : Bullshit

We all laughed before my phone rang. I looked at the number and knew it was my dad. I answered and put the phone on speaker

Dad : He baby, how is life

Ciara : Amazing

Dad : I see. Anywho, I know I've haven't been the best father to you. And I know you've been dying to know what I look like and what feature of mine you have. So how would you like to meet for lunch tomorrow

I honestly was shocked, after all these years he finally wants to meet. But is it because I am now a rising star, or does he seriously want to be in my life for real

Ciara : Um... I'd love that

Dad : Great, text me the time and place. I'll fly out asap and meet you there

Ciara : Ight, love you Daddy

Dad : Love you too Pumpkin

He hung up and the tears started flowing. That was the first time my dad ever said I love you back. I have mixed emotions right now. He really has me contemplating on what I should do. This has to be a dream
