I hadn't been nervous about a birthday party in years. I tried to make excuses as to why I was, but I knew the real reason.
Her and Gia went back to the hotel a couple hours ago to get ready.

She sent a picture of her in a silky white two piece set. The top was tied at her stomach and the skirt had drawstrings on each side. I noticed she had on our bracelet, along with other jewelry. She wore black YSL heels and had a clutch to match them.
She's so perfect.
Ché
I rolled my eyes and laughed when I saw Shawn's response to the picture.
Basketball Buddy 💙: "Ew put it away 🤢"
That Night
Gia, Tez, and I had been at the party for about an hour with no sign of Shawn.
Gia and I made our way to the mini bar after Tez left to setup for his performance.
"Two Sex on the Beaches please." I asked the bartender.
"Made this one extra special for you baby girl," she said, winking at Gia.
She blushed instantly as I raised my eyebrows at her.
"I'll leave y'all alone." I said as they chatted with eachother.
I walked around sipping on my drink when I bumped into somebody.
"Shit, my bad." I spoke, checking my outfit to see if anything spilled on me.
"You good, shawty." I heard a deep familiar voice say. "Holdup, Ché?"
Finally looking up I realized who it was. My eyes widened.
"James?"
"Wassup witchu girl?" He asked as he pulled me into a hug, which I returned.
We caught up with eachother for a couple minutes.
"Ay, I gotta ask," he said looking me up and down. "You got a man? Or you still stuck on a nigga?" He asked making me roll my eyes playfully at the last part.
Yup, we dated for a while a few years back. He got drafted and started acting different so we decided to cut shit of. We would still talk to eachother occasionally though, until I met Tez.
"Boy, ain't nobody stuck on you." I teased. "But yes I do have a man."
He sighed and chuckled, "Yeah I know, Lil Tez stay posting his girl."
"Cause I'm good to look at." I said cockily making him laugh.
We talked for a little longer before saying our goodbyes.
