DRAKE-
I did the unthinkable and let Wayne release So Far Gone.
Sure, there was plenty of other things I could've added to it, but I was ready for the world to hear Drizzy Drake. If I would have kept it any longer my motivation wouldn't have been as strong. The whole process to begin with was complex to me, I wanted to make something that would stick in people's souls, not just in their minds. Years from now I still want my music to be completely relevant. I took a big risk with combining my singing and rapping but to me, it was the exact sound I wanted as what people needed to hear.
"Hey, sorry it to me so long to get here," Leilani walked in
"It's fine," I pecked her lips
She had on minimum make up, just the way I liked it.
"You look beautiful."
"Thank you," she blushed
"Who are all these girls?" she said lowly in my ear
"Wayne invited them," I shrugged as we sat down on the couch
I'm ready to hear the whole thing now, let the show begin.

LEILANI-
I bobbed my head back and forth as Aubrey revealed his life to us through his music.
The catchy hooks, to the struggles of his life, every song was a hit. And this is only a Mixtape. It was something I just couldn't put into words, the way he put the music together was beyond me and nearly beyond this world. The one thing that bothered me is realizing I didn't know all that much about his past, some of the lines he referred to women had nothing to do with me or our relationship.
We'll just have to save that conversation for another day.
But on another note the ho's Wayne invited gave off rude stares, along with the occasional whispering as if I didn't know what they were talking about. I couldn't stand their presence in the first place, I hate groupies with a passion, sadly I'll have to start getting used to it, it's just part of a famous persons life.
"What did you think about the tape, bae?"
"I love it, Aubrey that was the most amazing thing I've heard in my life! You don't understand."
"Thank you baby," he pressed his forehead against mine and pecked my lips
"Lets go out," Wayne spoke up
"You want to?" Aubrey turned his attention to me
"I can't, but you can."
"Nah, I want to spend tonight with you." he stood up and proceeded to grab my hand and help me up
God, I'm so glad he said those words. I didn't want to sound needy by saying, 'no baby, I need you to stay with me'.
"I'm gonna have to take a rain check, Wayne."
"Aight man, I'll talk to you tomorrow then, we need to start planning this tour."
"Sounds good, be easy." he dapped him up
"I'll see you 'round, Leilani" he pulled me into a hug
"You better get her home Drake, it's past her bed time," one of the girls stated as she stood up and fixed her barely there dress
"Control your ho's Wayne," I rolled my eyes and grabbed Aubrey's hand

DRAKE-
I let out a sigh of relief as I pulled Leilani closer. For the first time in weeks, I'm able to kick back and relax.
"Aubrey, what was up with that text you sent me." Leilani spoke up after minutes of comfortable silence
"Which one?"
"The one that said, you know I love you right? or something like that."
"Oh, uh. I was a little buzzed and I thought I was going to do something reckless."
"And did you?" she scowled at me
I can't take her serious angry, honestly it turns me on more than anything.
"No baby," I chuckled and kissed her forehead
"Lemme find out Aubrey..."
"You trust me don't you?" I placed my lips on her neck and started lightly sucking on her skin
"Yea.." she moaned out softly
"Baby, I want you," I grunted lowly in her ear
"I'm tired," she turned the lights off
Damn, did I really just get shut down like that?
**
I unwrapped my arms from around Leilani, getting up and making my way to the bathroom. The best nights sleep is with the one you love, I woke up with plenty of energy, which was the perfect sign that today was going to be a good day.
"Aubrey! Come get your phone," Lei whined as she dramatically tossed the covers over her head
"Hello?"
"Morning Driz, I just wanted to tell you to check yo' bank account."
"Why, what's going on?"
"After all that hard work I wanted to give you a lil' sum," he chuckled with his raspy ass voice
"That's wassup."
"Man the world is going crazy over this mixtape, I'm proud of you."
"Are you fucking serious?" a smile crept up on my face
"Forreal nigga, next thing we need to get set up is some interviews,
Charlamagne wants to meet up with you and BET contacted me, they want you on 106 & Park."
It all hit me at once, I was finally given the opportunity to let the world hear my music and reacted positively, things can't get any better than that.
"I also want you to swing through later on so you can meet your new assistant."
"Sounds good, well more than good." I chuckled "But I got a quick question for you."
"Wassup?"
"You know any good jewelers?"
"Yea, I know a few, want me to hook it up for you?"
"Could you, I'm looking for something for my girl."
"You must really love her huh? I ain't mad at ya', you gotta hold on to a good thing."
"When I see her, I see the rest of my life and I'm not afraid to say that, she's THE one. I just need a way to prove that I'm serious."
"You lightskin niggas are something else, I swear," he chuckled "I'll text you his address in a little though."
"Aight, I'll talk to you later."
"Peace," he hung up
"Lei, get up, we have some stuff we need to do today."
"Just 10 more minutes."
I shook my head and got back in the bed, laying on top of her.
"Aubrey, get off!" she squirmed underneath me
"Nah, you need to get up," I put more of my weight on her
"Ok! Ok! Just get your big self off of me!" she whined
I rolled off of her but not before giving her ass a smack through the sheets.
"You're so annoying," she rolled her eyes
"You won't be saying that later, go get ready."
"What are you planning?"
Just wait on it~
