*Chapter Two*
oO.Fizz Point of View.Oo
I was about to sign my last autograph. They told me I could only sign autographs for 20 minutes but I wanted to sign one for every girl there. The girls were pretty cool. Most of them cried it was kind of overwhelming I never understood why girls do that, I guess I never will. Some girls gave Kamisha and Zariana nasty looks but they just laughed it off. But one girl just really pissed me off; she was the last one get an autograph. “Hey ma, what’s your name?” I asked her.
“Tiffany” She said smiling.
“Nice to meet you Tiffany” I told her as I signed the CD.
“Can I ask you something?” She asked as she took the CD from me.
“Sure”
“Why would you wanna be seen with her?” She asked as she looked towards Zariana.
I don’t know why but when she said that my blood started boiling. I looked over the two of them and I grabbed Kamisha lightly because she had a look on her face like she was ready to catch a case. “The same reason why you walked out the house this morning looking like that” I said smartly.
She shot all of us a nasty look then walked away. “Hey ladies, I’m hungry would you like to get something to eat with me?”
They both looked at me like they couldn’t believe those words had just came out my mouth. “Sure, we’d love to”
“Well, come on let’s go”
They just smiled as walked to the car. For some reason my eyes kept landing on Zariana. She was so beautiful. “Zariana can I ask you something?” I asked.
“Sure” She said as looked at me and smiled.
“Are you tired, because I saw you standing up through whole show?”
She smiled again. “Actually I am, but I’m not the type complain” She said.
I admired that. She seemed so strong. Nothing stopped her. Even when wanted to stop she kept it moving. “Oh, well you’ll have time relax because I have cravin’ for Italian. How do y’all feel about the Olive Garden?”
“We love the Olive Garden” Kamisha said.
“Olive Garden it is” I said as we walked up to the car.
The driver got out and opened the door and Kamisha got in first. I was about to get in so I could sit next to both of them, but then I realized that Zariana may need help getting in the car. “Do you need help getting in?” I asked her.
“Oh no I have it, but you can take these” She said handing me her crutches.
I took the crutches from her and got in the car. She got in after me and I looked on in amazement. I’ve met other people with disabilities and they were so dependable on other people. So to see her so independent really surprised me. We talked the whole way to Oliver Garden; I got to know them better. I found out their both eighteen and fresh out of High School. I also found out that besides me their favorite artist were Chris Brown, Mario, Nelly, and Ludacris. The longer we were in the car the more they loosened up and I was happy about that. After they loosened up I realized they were so full of energy and just as goofy as they wanted to be. For example, Fluid came on the radio. When to the “When comes that B2K shit guess who her favorite….Ohhh” They screamed the Ohh so loud that scared the driver and swerved the car. I busted out laughing! Once we pulled into the parking lot they had the driver turn up the radio and we all got out the car and started dancing. Then Misha jumped in my face acting out the bridge of the song. Then Zari begged me to do one of dances I did in the video, but I said I would only to do if she did it with me. Trust and believe lil mama has rhythm. We just stood in the parking lot acting a fool for a whole 10 minutes. I knew I was drawing attention myself but at that time I didn’t care I was having fun. It was good to be out with people that saw me as Dreux and not Lil’ Fizz. oO.Misha Point of View.Oo
After acting a fool in the parking lot for about 10 minutes, we finally made it inside the restaurant. We found out self a booth, got our orders taken and now we were about half way through our meal. “I’ll be right back y’all I have to use the bathroom” Zari said.
“You got it or you want me to come with you?” I asked her unsure.
“I got it Mish” She said reassuring me.
She slid out the booth, grabbed her crutches, and headed toward the bathroom. I watched as Zari went towards the bathroom, a smile came across Fizz’s face. “Is she always so joyful and inpendent?” He asked.
“Yeah, She doesn’t like anyone to feel sorry for her. She feels her life was made this way for a reason and going to live it to the best of her ability.” I explained to him.
When I finished giving him the answer to the question I noticed that smile on his face grew wider and that made me wonder. “Can I ask you something?” I asked him.
“Go ahead” He said as he sipped his water.
“Do all your fans make you smile like that?” I asked putting him on the spot.
He hung his head down and started laughing a little bit. I guess he was trying to hide the fact that he was blushing.
“Actually, no they don’t” He answered honestly.
“I didn’t think so” I said giving him devilish smile.
“I’m back, what’d I miss?” Zari said as she came back to the table.
“Nada” We both answered.
We ate and joked around for a few more minutes, until Fluid sprung out on Zari’s phone. I caught a smile come across his face as he blushed. I guess it flattered him that she had his song as a ringtone. oO.Zari Point of View.Oo
“Hello?” I said answering my phone.
“Where are you? That festival ended hours ago” I listened to my mother say on the other end of the phone.
“Ma, We’re at Olive Garden” I explained to her.
“And how did you get to Olive Garden?” She said.
“Dreux” I said calling Fizz by his first name.
“Who is Dreux?” She asked as her tone changed.
“Dreux is Lil Fizz” I told her.
“YOU’RE AT OLIVE GARDEN WITH LIL WIZZ?” my mother screamed into the phone.
Fizz and Misha bust out laughing so I know they heard her. “Ma, it’s not Wizz, it’s Fizz” I told her laughing.
“You knew what I meant” She said defending herself.
I just laughed. “Well, have fun.” She told me.
“I am”
We said our goodbyes and hung up the phone. Then we sat and joked around while we ate and then it was time to head back. The ride wasn’t as hype as the ride there. We all had a bad case of the ‘itis’, so we were sleepy. Once we pulled up to my house. Dreux told the driver to wait so he could walk us to the door and meet my mom. “Mom, we’re back” I yelled as I entered the house and put my crutches down.
“Okay, I’m upstairs” She yelled.
“Can you come downstairs, someone wants to meet you” Misha yelled.
A few seconds my mom appeared at the bottom of the steps. “Who you?” She asked Dreux.
“I’m Dreux” he answered my mom laughing a little bit as me and Misha laughed with him.
“Oh, you Lil Wizz?” She asked excited.
Me, Misha, and Dreux bust out laughing once again. “Ma, It’s Fizz” Misha said still laughing.
“The boy know his name” She said annoyed.
Dreux just stood there and smiled. “Well thank you for taking my daughters out. There a very dedicated fan unlike most of the girls out there” my mom said sincerely.
“No need to thank me. I wanted to do it” He said.
“Well aren’t you the gentlemen” My mom said smiling.
“Thank you, I wish I could stay, but the car is outside waiting” He said in kind of sad tone.
I guess he didn’t want the day to end either. “Aw okay” Me and Misha said at the same time.
“But I want keep in touch okay?” He said as smile came across his face.
We exchanged numbers, and then he gave us both hugs. He started to head out the door until he turned around and came back and gave me another hug followed by a kiss on the forehead. “Stay beautiful” He told me as he smiled.
Without saying anything else he headed out the door. Once my mom shut the door her and Misha looked at me. “What?” I asked
They just started laughing and went upstairs leaving me confused. Me and Misha changed into our PJs and before you knew it Misha was knocked out. She always fell asleep on me. I laid in thinking about my life and today. My thoughts were broken my phone vibrating on my bed. “Hello” I answered in a low tone.
“Hey Beautiful” The voice said on the other end of the phone.
Dreux and I stayed on the phone for hours that night. We talked about everything we could think of. Truth be told he was totally different person from what you saw on TV. I was glad I was getting know the REAL Dreux P. Fredric.
