However, Dave being able to keep his darkside hidden from the public is able to uphold his good image as the well respected man that he is today. It's summer vacation and Aaliyah decides to spend it in New York with her family and long time friends.What happens when she catches the eye of Dave one night ? What happens if she tries to persue her ? Does she give him the attention he's looking for or does she turn a blind eye to the famous East. • • "Now what's someone like you doing here ?" "It's funny the way you said "someone like me" I almost forgot you don't know me." "You a little feisty one huh?" "You not as slow as I thought huh ?" I raised a brow at him. "I don't think I got your name ma." "Don't worry I didn't throw it East." I smirked at him before taking my leave. I didn't miss the shocked expression on his face though, but ofcourse as quick as it came is as quick as it left.
