Everyone clapped for Dave as he walked off the stage. Erica smiled upon him, so excited and glad that she could be on his side. She pulled him in for a hug before the two kissed.

"I'll be right back." Erica said walking away. Jay walked up, dapping fists with Dave. Jay was proud of him.

"You doing big shit man. The cartel ain't no joke and that's some good money." Jay said.

"Yeah you right. But don't make it seem like I need them. Obviously they looked me up." Dave said and Jay laughed.

"You right." Jay said. The two stood next to each other, chopping it up while Erica was still gone. As they talked, Dave seen Xavi walking through the crowd as if she was in a rush to get somewhere.

Jay didn't say anything, he just followed his eyes and seen that he was watching Xavi. Jay let out a small chuckle and Dave looked at him, thinking he missed something.

"What you laughing for?" Dave asked and Jay shook his head. Jay had known Dave since diapers so that mean't they grew up with each other and as they grew up, they learned things about each other.

"I've known you for too long East. I know you feeling her." Jay said and Dave frowned his face.

"What? I don't even know shordy like that." Dave said honestly but that didn't defeat Jay's purpose. Jay still thought he liked her.

"I'm not stupid." Was what all Jay was gonna say. He wasn't dumb but he wasn't gonna argue with Dave.

Dave was soon approached by a guy. Dave raised a brow up at him, wondering who the guy was.

"So you on the team. I'm Miles." He said, holding his hand out for Dave to shake and he did before Miles shook hands with Jay.

"Yeah. It's gonna be nice working with y'all." Dave said and Miles shook his head with a chuckle. Miles was gonna tell him now, not later.

"I want you to know that this family, business, is messy. So try not to get in it." Miles said and Dave laughed.

"Preciate you for telling me that." Dave said when Xavi walked up.

"Miles, me and grandma are about to go." Xavi said, trying her hardest not to make eye contact with Dave and it was working but it was hard with Dave staring her down.

"What? The party not over yet." Miles said and Xavi shook her head.

"I know but I don't want grandma making it home late." Xavi said trying to come up with any excuse to get away from Dave.
