“Hey, are you coming to his performance atSummit?” Winnie asked. “I think he’s supposed to be premiering a song with Noble.”
“Isn’t it intimate seating?”
Summitwasn’t the biggest space, but it was really nice. The owner, Derrick, had commissioned me to take shots of the club when it was freshly renovated and empty, and then again on opening night, so I’d already been a few times.
“Yes, but I could get you in,” Winnie assured.
“But—”
“Solutions, Brooke.” She laughed, clamping hands on my shoulders. “I’ve got them all. So what you gon’ do?”
I pushed out a sigh. “When do I need to let you know by?” I asked, even though I should have just given her anoinstead of dragging it on.
It wasn't that I didn't want to hang out or even that I didn't want to see Kyir perform.
I just… didn't know what the vibe was going to be between me and him, wasn't sure I wouldn't embarrass myself watching him on stage.
Not that I’d be alone if I did.
Kyir wasembarrass yourselffine and that shit was well-documented.
Hell,I’ddocumented it, when I shot him forSugar&Spice. Those pics had gone viral, to a degree that pissed me off. Not only was no one sharing photo credits, the whole situation inducted a renewed audience of people vocally ready drop to their knees for the man.
I couldn’t front like it didn’t burn me the fuck up.
With no damn outlet anymore.
The most annoying part was I didn’t even used to be like this, nervous and jittery about aman.
Aman.
A man.
What the fuck was there to be weird about?
With Kyir though… as laid back as he was, as easily as he got to move around the Heights because it was home… he was also a star.
It was pure lust and excitement when we were just fucking, but the more it skirted the line of something deeper, the scarier it got.
“Just let me know the day of,” Winnie assured. “I'm sure there'll be plenty of room for everybody.”
“Cool. Now let me get out your way before you try to talk me into staying for this next class again.”
Winnie laughed as I walked off, calling behind me, “There's plenty of room for that too!”
