A/N: Shardae's Character Will Be Played As Summerella Who I Love So Much.

-Blake Johnson POV-

-A Week Later-

I was in the den of my family home with my mom. We were just Watching tv and talking about  regular stuff when suddenly TMZ came on with a breaking news story or whatever. I really don't fuck wit TMZ cuz they be spreading lies about people. But anyway my mom turned the T.V up louder since she loves TMZ I huffed and watched.

TMZ Reporter: So just last night Singer and actress Shardae Lyon was seen with an unknown light skinned man they looked to be very cozy if you ask me. Who is this mystery man? we must find out. And Shardae has came back to social media guys that's right after she has been in hiding for five years. The singer recently posted a post like this:

_Shardae_:I'm Back And I'm Better...Hope Y'all Ready😀😀
#newshitcomingsoon #staytuned #empire #didyallmissme

TMZ Reporter: This post has over 16 million likes and comments most of them are fans and other celebrates like for instance Drake said and I quote 'Ok beautiful let's hear it DROP THAT SHITT🔥🔥'  Lil Wayne said the same thing. They are ready to hear the new songs that Shardae is about to drop and I can't wait. Is there a album underway Shardae Hmm?

Coming up next: Kim K's Butt actually Real?? 

After they said that my mom turned the T.V off I'm glad she didn't recognize me in the picture with Shardae. My mom was just sitting there thinking so I tapped her she looked at me and that's when It looked like a lightbulb popped in her head "Was that you in the picture with that girl?" She asked me I sighed and looked to the side, see here we go see she about to be like "Go ahead and lock that down boy we need the money." but she didn't say anything like that she looked at me and smiled then left out the den its kinda weird that she doesn't say anything like that anyone I think she's finally changing. I mean we have been getting along very well these past weeks I hope it says like this. Now let's get into this Shardae thing I didn't even know that she was working on something new and I'm a little bit hurt that she didn't tell me about it as I thought about I thought about what Drake said and got a little mad and I don't really know why but I shook it off and was on my phone for about 30 minutes when I got a text from Shardae saying the she wanted to meet me at Empire I said yeah I got in my car and drove to Empire. After a 35 minute drive I arrived and as soon as I walked it my jaw dropped I'm actually inside the Empire building I've dreamed of this moment since I was a child I can't believe I'm really here as I'm looking around I see a very familiar shirt woman running towards me smiling so hard and her are dimples showing beautifully I chuckled and hugged her back. When we broke our hug she looked up at me still smiling "I missed you." She said I smiled "I missed you to little mama." I said she huffed and looked away I already know she likes her lil nickname I gave her but it's adorable when she acts like she doesn't like it. I tapped her because she seemed to be in a deep thought she looked up at me and chuckled "Oh I asked you to meet me here because there people that want to see you. So come with me." She said grabbing my hand and leading the way and my eyes instantly started staring at her ass the way it just bounced up and down as she walked she cleared her throat and looked back at me my head snapped up to meet her eyes quickly but I think she still saw what I was originally looking at. We went inside one if the studio and I couldn't believe my eyes there LUCIOUS LYON stood in the flesh along with Cookie, Jamal, and Melodie while I there froze like a damn statue Lucious walked up to me and chuckled at my face "Lets talk shall we?" he said I nodded and we went into his office. Once we entered he sat at his desk and I sat in the chair in front of his desk we sat there for about 3 minutes before he broke the silence "So my daughter has been telling be about your songs. And I have heard some also and you are just the sound that we are looking for. I ran through your songs with Cookie and we want you to be apart of the Empire family that is if you want to." he said. I can't believe it Is this really happening right now? I thought about it for some time I mean Empire is the best company out they don't control you or how your music is and everybody they sign becomes instant superstars "Hell Yeah!! where the contract at?" I said he laughed he got the contract I and signed it "Yo for real tho thank you so much such a honor to actually be here right no,  you know this was something I dreamed every day as a kid." I said he nodded "Thanks kid you got it and I mean it. And shouldn't really be thanking me you should be thanking Shardae she's the one who put hip to your music." he said I nodded "Yeah I'll be sure to thank her when we get back in there." I stated while getting up he did so we talking walking back to the studio "You know if you have a track that you need to lay down feel free to when we get back." He spoke I nodded "Yeah I think I might take you up on that." I said we made it to the studio to them talking about food or something we entered and they stop talking and looked at us "So did you decide to sign with us?" Cookie asked me I nodded they all smiled Jamal stood up and walked over to me "Welcome to Empire man, Congratulations." He said giving me a handshake I said thank you and he was on his way out the door when Cookie stopped him "You better be working that album boy i'm not playing." She said we all laughed Jamal huffed and nodded then left out I looked at Shardae and motioned for her to follow me out the room she got up and walked out with me. We went into one of the empty studios I stared at her and she looked up at me "What?"  She said I smiled and hugged her so tight 'Damn she smell like heaven' I thought to myself as I hugged her she laughed "Thank You, Lil Mama." I said she chuckled and said your welcome then we broke the hug and talked for a while "So how do you feel about laying a track down today?" she said I looked away "Honestly I really don't know about that one. You know a lot of people said I wasn't gon' make here, I guess I just let all negative comments get to me, man" I said sadly She scoffed and looked "Blake, look I know where your coming from believe it or not people still say I can't sing, dance, and all types of other shit. But do I let that shit get to me, well I did back in the day when I was a teenager. And think about this way are they paying your bills?-No- Ok then FUCK THEM for real they just be mad and shit cause not chasing they dreams like you are. You feel me?" She said I laughed a little she did to I cheered a little bit more "Yeah I feel you and the track is going to be called "a lot"." I said she nodded "Well lets get started then, Shit." she said  and after that we got to work.
