Chapter 10

Jacob Latimore POV

[Verse 1:]
Put you on a pedestal...
Take you real high.
Let to see my lady in a way she react
When I keep her satisfied.
Not to stroke my ego...
But I do it well.
Plus she does it better when
I get her to the point but she forget to exhale

[Pre-Chorus:]
Baby girl,
You gon' always get every part of me.
Nothing else.
Even matters when your rivers flowing babe.
Trust me girl,
When it all falls down, we keep it going.

[Chorus:]
Can't help it, baby.
Just got to be unselfish, lady.
And make sure that you come, first.
You can understand, girl.
As long as I'm your man,
You gon' always come, first.
Show you I ain't playing, baby.
Listen what I'm saying you gon' always come first.

[Verse 2:]
Wherever you wanna go,
Baby, I'll take you there.
But I'm a take the scenic route,
Girl I'm a show you, ain't no playing games here.
Give you that inception,
Get all in your brain.
And hit you with a dream, till' you hit that falsetto.
Ain't no way of escape.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
It's all about you girl,
I don't mind comin' in second.
I'm a let you take the lead girl,
Every time and it's no question.
You gon' get everything you need.
Baby, I aim to please.
Long as you're here with me, baby girl.

[Pre-Chorus:]
Baby girl,
You gon' always get every part of me.
Nothing else,
Even matters when your rivers flowing babe.
Trust me girl,
When it all falls down, we keep it going.

[Chorus:]
Can't help it, baby.
Just got to be unselfish lady,
And make sure that you come, first.
You can understand, girl
Is long as I'm your man
You gon' always come, first.
Show you I ain't playing, baby
Listen what I'm saying you gon' always come,
You gon' always come
You gon' always come, first

I go backstage and give some daps to my friends when I see a bunch of screaming girls here. They all want to take pictures and hugs and some autographs too. I meet each girl one by one and listen to how they love when I sing. How they love it when I reach my hand out to touch the crowd, and all of that. One of them even asked about my relationship with Bahja, I didn't say too much.

I sign some autographs when Sarah pulls me to the side and tells me about my next upcoming tour.

"Okay so I just set you up to be on the next Love Fantasy tour with Diggy Simmons, OMG Girlz, Keke Palmer, Usher, and August Alsina." Sarah said, happily.

"It's more stars but my point is that you're back on again." Sarah said smiling.

I give her a hug and a kiss on her cheek. "That's great Sarah! Thank you!"

"Hello Mr. Latimore," I hear somebody say with an accent. I recognize it anywhere though. I turn to see it's Nicki.

"Hey Nicki," I go over and hug her. "Whatchu doing here Nicki?" I ask her.

"I was just 'round and seen you performin' and I had to stop by." Nicki smiles.

"You did ya thang out there Jacob." She adds.

"Thanks Nicki. Well, I'm gonna be going back on tour soon." I tell her.

"Ooh really wit' who?" Nicki asks.

"Simmons, OMG Girlz, Usher, August Alsina, etc." I tell her and she smiles.

"Somebody's happy." I said.

"Yeah, my man is gonna be on tour wit'chu." Nicki said. She pulls out her phone. "Hold on," she said.

"That must be August." I said and she chuckles.

"No it's his lil' cousin." Nicki answers her phone. "She's like 'round your age. You two should meet up."

I didn't know he had a cousin... Who is she?
