There's nothing like a gangsta party and New Orleans is no California but it's definitely a beautiful city. We were walking through the heat of the city where the crowd was going crazy, the bands were jamming, people were dancing and drinks were being passed around.
Me: I'm loving this vibe here
Lucas: same bro this was definitely right place to go
Keith: it's just something about Louisiana that just makes you wanna..
Armon: let loose
Trey S: express yourself
Lamar: have freedom
Stephen: eat glorious food ( looks around at the ladies ) mmm mmm mmm
Me: you sure you meant food or do you mean women ( looks over at him )
Stephen: same thing ( smirks ) they both give me pleasure
Marques: I'll give an amen to that my brother ( daps him up )
Lamar: in less than a few days Keith you will be a married man
Armon: But as of now he's a bachelor and we to turn up as much we can ( grabs his shoulder)
Keith: where do we start
Lucas: there's a cool club not too far from here let's go
Me: let's do it
So we all caught an Uber to this bar and perfect setting since it was sunset.
Keith P.o.v
  We made it to the bar and as soon as we entered we saw people jamming and the DJ was definitely playing the right music and we walked towards the bar and started out on two rounds and over the course of the few hours it was party central and strippers started to come out and of course I respected me and Lhani's agreement to only allow two strippers top and no touching. As the guys were throwing the dollars and slowly the liquor started to kick in as we all heard towards the dance floor an were surrounded by women and as I was about to grab another drink I felt a tap on my shoulder and when I turned around I froze in my steps completely stunned.
??: Long time no see stranger
Me: Ryan- what- what are you doing here
Ryan: I'm here with my girls and I just happen to see you from across the room ( smiles ) so how are you ( looks him up & down ) you look good
Me: I'm doing good thank you and you look good too
Ryan: I heard you were getting married too so congratulations
Me: thank you very much
Ryan: you want t go somewhere more quiet ti talk it's starting to get loud
Me: no no I'm fine ima just head back over to my bros
Ryan: oh come onnn ( smiles ) you're celebrating after all at least one drink
Me: ( signs & smiles a lil ) okay just one drink 
Ryan: there we go ( laughs a lil ) come on follow me
  Soon enough she grabbed my arm pulling me through the crowd and upstairs to a more secluded part of the club with private room and there was two glasses with a bottle of champagne in a bucket of ice and as she sat and started to pour our drinks I sat down to keep my distance away from her then she handed me a glass and sat back down with her leg crossed.
Me: so how are you
Ryan: I'm good and I been recording more music for my next project and just finished my international tour ( sips her glass ) everything has been good
Me: that's good ( take a sip )sounds like you been busy
Ryan: I have ( smiles ) it's been fun but what about you ( leans back on the couch) besides being engaged what else is new
Me: well me and my fiancé have a baby on the way and I been receiving more work from my modeling agency and movie deals since I played Ron in the New Edition Movie
Ryan: I saw that movie a few weeks back you guys were really good you definitely played your part
Me: thank you
Ryan: ( moves a lil closer ) so you decided to come to New Orleans to celebrate
Me: yeah I did
Ryan: how long are you going to be here
Me: 4 days and 3 nights and then I get ready for my wedding
Ryan: well again ( moves closer ) congrats
Me: t-thank you ( moves away )
   The more we talked the closer she tried to move towards me more and eventually I got up and started to shift to the other side of the room as the heat inside me and tension began to rise.
Ryan: you okay ( smiles a lil )
Me: look i appreciate the time we had here in this moment and this is a bad idea
Ryan: what is ( gets up )
Me: you and me and I'm about to get married and I-( gco )
Ryan: ( kisses his lips )
  Every part of me knew this was wrong and yet I felt myself kissing her back and putting her against the wall and as she tried to reach for my belt I grabbed both of her wrist and pushed them towards the wall as we were both out of breath.
Me: I got to go this was a mistake this should have never happened ( starts to walk away )
Ryan: wait wait Keith I'm sorry ( tries to reach for him while tearing up )
   I moved out of her grip as I started to walk back towards the club I heard soft crying and of course I kept going and eventually I found the guys in the V.I.P section and told them that we needed to go and from the look on my face they knew something was up so we all got up & left out of the club and headed back to the hotel.
                    ( MEANWHILE )

   I can't believe we just saw Jayceon in Florida of all places...all that I could think about was keeping Lhani as far away from him since she is pregnant....we managed to make it to a restaurant which is about 25 mins away from our hotel and we all sat down and we were all silent and looking at our menu until Brooklyn broke the silence.
Brooklyn: so why on earth is he here !!?!
Me: and how come we didn't know nor hear that he would be performing here
Lhani: well for starters I have him blocked on everything
Asia: but still in some way he knew you were here
Me: we should cut our trip short
Emae: what about Keith and the guys I mean should we tell them
US: ( starts talking all at once )
  All of a sudden Lhani's phone started to ring and we all grew silent and as she pulled her phone out it showed " unknown caller" and she answers while placing the phone call on speaker.

Phone Convo:
Lhani: hello who is this
??: you know who this is baby love did you like my show
Lhani: Jayceon !!! Stop calling me I already have a restraining order put out on you
Jayceon: and you think that's going to stop me ( laughs a lil )
Lhani: you can rot in hell ( hangs up )
   Suddenly Lhani started to cry and Brooklyn held her close for we all knew she couldn't handle this while carrying a growing baby inside of her and in this moment we could really just be there to comfort her until she grew silent and Tia gave her some tissue to wipe her tears.
Me: Lhani it's up to you what you want to do
Tia: yeah and if another court case needs to happen we can worry about that later
Emae: just know sis ( rubs her back ) we got your back
Lhani: ( sniffs ) thank you...thank you all ( smiles a lil ) did I mess up my makeup
US: ( laughs a lil ) 
Tia: we will fix it later ( wipes her face with a small wipe)
Lhani: well let's eat first
Miah: wheeeww thank you Jesus
US: ( laughs more )
Miah: yall laughing but yall not carrying a growing human either ( rubs her belly)
Lhani: same here ( smiles ) after we are done here we will go back to the hotel and go from there
Brooklyn: sounds like a plan
  As the waitress finally came around we sat among ourselves until we got our drinks and food and just enjoyed with being with each other company and I hope the boys are having a better trip than we are right now.
                    ( MEANWHILE )

   It was about 7:30 at night when we made it back to the hotel and everyone sat in the living room after the car ride was silent and Keith sat down and for a moment we all waited to see what would be said in these moments.
Lucas: what the hell were you thinking man
Keith: idk man ( sighs ) nothing happened I stopped immediately after she kissed me
Stephen: well one thing for sure is that you're going to have to tell our sister
Lamar: and yes she will be mad
Keith: guys we literally have about 4 days until the wedding
Marques: she's very understanding
Keith: do you think she's up
Me: with Brooklyn at her side ( hands him the phone) she's definitely up
  Before he could call her his phone lit up immediately and picks up.
Keith: Hey baby I was about to call you I got ti tell you- ( gco ) Whatt !!! Are yall okay !?! Is the baby okay
US: ( getting concerned) 
Me: everything alright
Keith: ( shakes his head ) do you want us to...but baby....okay ( sighs ) yes I do have to tell you something
  Then he headed towards his room leaving us in the living room and we just chilled around and started to watch the tv and suddenly we heard Keith yelling and seems like arguing with Lhani but then it got quiet and I looked over at Lucas who looked over at me and nod his head then we both got up and headed to his room and we opened to see him on the ground with his hands covering his face.
Lucas: you good bro
Keith:.....
Me: ( sits next to him) come on bro what happen
Lucas: you know you can talk to us
Keith: ( sighs ) the wedding is still on if that's what you're asking
Me: good
Lucas: so what's with all the shouting and the sad face
Keith: Lhani's baby daddy is in Florida and he threaten her and she didn't want us to come down there
Me: so what's the plan if we can't do nothing
Lucas: are they cancelling their trip
Keith: no their not
Me: No!!?! Then what
Keith: their coming to New Orleans
