Chapter 31

*next day*

Daniel PoV

I sat at my dressing room desk in the back room and held the envelope in my hand.
Today was pay day for me.
Even though I've only been working at magic city for 2 weeks it feels like I've been working here for months.
Today was my day off so I decided to come in and get my check and bounce.
I counter all my tips I've gotten from dancing on the stage up last night at home and it came up to 5 hundred dollars.
That money was for Harley's clothes and food.
Now hopefully my check will be for my tuition and fees.
I took a deep breath and opened the envelope and pulled the check out.
I read over the check.
But as soon as I saw how many zeros came after the commas i jumped and started to scream in excitement.
My check was 50,000 dollars.
But how?
I turned around to see Chyna smiling at me.

Chyna:why so exited boo??

Danni:chyna my check was 50 thousand....you told me we get 11

Chyna:depends on how well you do....all the men ask for is you to dance for them....people saying you the best dancer here and they ain't lying...the boss she loves you boo

I couldn't believe this.
I was so happy.
Now I can officially pay for all my fees and get furniture for my apartment.
If my check is this big now.
Imagine how it's going to be in the future....

Bryson Pov

I sat the paper down with the lyrics in front of timberland.
I saw him nodding his head as his eyes kept looking down the paper.
As he looked up he smiled.

Timberland:can I ask you a serious question?

I nodded.

Bryson:shoot

Timberland:you been acting different lately....you've been giving me songs off the top of your head I never even heard you think about....is it princess?? Cause who ever it is is bringing out the true Bryson tiller and I love it

Bryson:it's my ex.....she's back in my life....I just found out I have a baby I never knew existed

Timberland looked at me wide eyed.

Timberland:a baby?? Damn man.....look don't argue....don't fight....be there for your daughter man....because trust me I know how it was to grow up without a dad....imagine how your little girl gone feel....and Bryson take this life changing moment in your life and write about it....out it into your music

I looked at him and nodded.
He was right.

*later*

I sat in the booth and put the headphones on.
Time to right my wrongs...

I finished singing the song and looked down.
I knew what I had to do.
All I could think about was danni.
And even though me and her are going through it I want to make things work for the baby.
It was time I started acting like a man....
