I was in my room listening to this beat that Dre gave me the other day. I was trying to write something for it, then Eazy came in
"Hey." I said taking off my headphones as he made himself comfortable on my bed
"Did I ever tell you how comfortable your bed is?"
"I can tell every time you come over here you take a nap in it." I said with a laugh
"What's up?" I asked him
"I found us a manager." He said
"Who?" I asked I didn't know Eazy was even looking for a manager
"His name is Jerry Heller, and he says he can take us to the next level."
"Us?"
"You, N.W.A, Ruthless all of it."
"And where did you meet this guy?"
"He works out of the factory were we get our records. I was picking up an order, and he stepped to and told me he liked our shit."
"He's gonna organize a showcase for us, and he gonna get record label people to come and we could get signed."
"So you already said yes?"
"Why not?" He said shrugging
"How about talking to me about this?"
"I'm talking to you now." He said and I rolled my eyes
"You know what I meant E, this affects all of us. You should've talked to us before you did this. We don't know anything about this guy." I said
"Come on Niecy you gotta trust me. This it's gonna be great. Beside would I ever let something bad happen to you?" He asked and I gave him a look
"Say it you know your big brother ain't gone never put you harms way." He said and I sighed
"I know you wouldn't, but you should've still talked to us."
"Chill Niecy you trust me?"
"Yes."
"The rock wit me on this, I got you." He said and I nodded
"Okay." I said even thought I had a bad feeling in my stomach
"When the showcase?" I asked
"Next Friday, and your opening." He said and my face fell
"Eric!" I called after him but all I got was the sound of the front door shutting
Skateland backstage
I was so nervous, I had gotten over my stage fright for the most part, but this show was a whole other thing. I was trying to calm myself as I was pacing backstage, until Kira grabbed my arm
"Will you stop?" She said
"I think I'm gonna be sick."
"No Niecy, listen you got this. You can do this in your sleep, just pretend we're back at Alonzo's just doing our thing. Now take a deep breath." She said and I did
"Now take a drink." Tianna said shoving a glass in my hand
"Really T?" I asked then sat the glass down and we walked over to where the boys were, and Shea pulled me on his lap, and I wrapped an arm around him. They were making fun of Jerry Heller
