We Found Love

Chapter 7

Rihanna's POV

-----

"Next stop Detroit Michigan!" The driver shouted as he climbed up into the tour bus. Marshall and I had to wait outside the massive vehicle until all the safety checks were complete. I watched the security team check the tires and the engine. Crazy enough they also had to check under the bus for planted bombs, and inside the bus for any insane people who might have found a way to break in.

"Alright all good, we will arrive in Detroit around 9:00pm, giving us four days until the next show." A tall dark haired staff member said smiling at Marshall and I.

"Thank you." I said smiling back at him as we made our way onto the bus for the last time. It was a bitter sweet feeling knowing The Monster Tour was almost at an end. I threw my suit case on my bunk bed then sat at the table booth. I was planning on reading the songs that were sent in for the next album. I figured with nine whole hours to blow I might as well put it to good use.

My eyes scanned the pages of text trying to imagine what the song would sound like in my head. Marshall joined me at the table a few minutes into my work session. I glanced up at him as he sipped on his freshly opened Red Bull.

"Hey Ri, I think we need to talk about what's going on." He said carefully. I set my papers down, giving him my full attention.

"You mean about us?"

"Yeah." I saw his face turn a shade of red, he was obviously embarrassed or uncomfortable with the topic. Dating wasn't something he did, or talked about.

"Well I think we should give it a try." I confessed, and his face seemed to brighten. I saw a small grin escape from the side of his lips before he pulled them back into their usual state.

"What if the paparazzi show up while we're out somewhere?" He asked taking off his grey hat to scratch is head. As a result of being friends for years I could tell when he was embarrassed or uneasy. He would either scratch the back of his neck, or the top of his head. I found it cute the way he was a acting, it was like a middle school boy talking to a girl for the first time.

"What you embarrassed to be seen with me?" I stated laughing, trying to make the situation lighter.

"Nah, not at all. I just wasn't sure if you wanted the whole world to know."

"Fuck the media, their gonna find out sooner or later." I shrugged, looking at Marshall who was sitting opposite of me. I would have never of guessed I would like someone like him. I don't know how to put it he's just... Different

"So tonight when we get to Detroit do you want to do something?"

"Is Marshall Mathers, asking me out on a date?" I asked giggling while raising an eyebrow sarcastically.

"Yeah, aren't you lucky." He said trying to not to sound to eager, but instead trying to act like the cold hearted blonde everybody knows and loves.

"I guess I am, what are we gonna do?"

"We could go to my place, hang out and have dinner." He suggested taking another swig of red bull. Marshall knows I'm the type of person that would rather stay home and hang out then go to the club with a bunch of fake friends and drink till pass out. I was a cheap date to be honest.

"Sure that sounds fun." I said with a smile to reassure him. He smiled back at me with the cutest little grin that made my heart melt.

"Aight so what do ya wanna do now?"

"Well I want to watch TV, but I have to get all this paperwork filled out." I said puffing out my bottom lip pouting. I really wanted to go watch Breaking Bad I was almost to the end.
