“Get it.” Jatavia murmured.
I got up and went to it just as it stopped ringing. By the time I walked back over to Jatavia it went off again.
Rina…Of course.
“Yeah.” I said flatly, not breaking eye contact with Jatavia.
“Granted, I gave you some time to tend to whatever personal needs that you have going on. However, it is my job to assist Iceman in keeping you on the right track. You told me in the beginning to make sure that I do that as well as keeping your image solidified. Your flight back to Cali is in the next three hours. You have to?—”
“I’m aware of your position, Rina. I pay you good for it. I need one more day though, I have important things to tend to.” I cut her off.
“What? No. We have meetings, we still have to?—”
“One more day,” I repeated slower. “Push everything back, Rina.”
“Dreu! We can’t keep changing the schedule, you missed two interviews, a photoshoot and there’s a long list of things that the label is requesting.” She stressed.
“One more day, Rina.” I said in a softer tone.
For a couple of seconds, there was silence on the line. I was about my business although I stressed Rina and my boy Iceman out. People thought being a celebrity was easy because of the money. A lot of times that shit was just as stressful as working a regular job.
“Fine. But this is the last?—”
I hung right up in her face. I made a mental note to have a much-needed meeting with my entire team. I had no off days, and they constantly pushed me in meetings, interviews, video and photo shoots, along with lots of appearances and shows. The only part that I enjoyed the most was getting in the booth and zoning out saying whatever the hell came to mind.
I tossed the phone down and continued to stare at Jatavia. Up close her skin was beautiful. She had tiny scars from acne that she fought to get a handle on. Those dark tiny scars now looked like freckles.
“I’m chilling with you for the day. I want to take you out…make you feel good.” I told her.
“Out where, Dreu…you didn’t even answer my question.” She quickly reminded me.
The surprise and excitement in her voice couldn’t be missed. Jatavia had the kind of eyes that made me lose my train of thought mid-sentence. They were almond shaped, soft at the corners and pulled me in without her ever having to say a word. I looked into those deep, dark brown eyes and felt something tug in my chest.
Her eyes were giving me this quiet invitation for the type of passion and love that I had been longing to feel again.
“Spa. Facial. Nails. Hair. Shopping. Eating good food, let me get you in a nice hotel so you can be in a different scenery. I’ll pay you to take off work for the week too.”
Her lips parted slightly.
“I can’t just take off work for a week, Dreu.” She shook her head.
“Okay, well just take tomorrow off. So you can spend the day in the hotel I get you to just relax and do you.” I suggested.
“That sounds fair. But I don’t know if I should.” Her eyes hit her carpet.
“I didn’t ask if you should, I asked if you want to. We can spend the day together. I don’t mind sitting and keeping you company while you getting pampered.” I tried my hardest to convince her.
Finally, she exhaled. Her lips curved just a little until a full smile broke across her face.
“Okay, we can do that. After I shower, I can make us breakfast.” She slowly stood to her feet.
“Or…we can go out to eat and have brunch together. I can hop in the shower with you, I just gotta run out to my rental car and get my hoe bag.” I chuckled.
“You are not showering with me, Dreu. We not about to get things confused between us.” She rolled her eyes. “You still didn’t even answer my question.” She reminded me.
“Jatavia…you know the answer to your question.” I closed the space between us.
My hands found the small cups under her ass cheeks and squeezed. I pulled her against me and massaged each cheek before I slapped one. Jatavia moaned lowly, I felt her big ass nipples stiffen against me as I looked into her alluring eyes. I hadto control myself, but she had a nigga ready to drop down to my knees.
