Higher Pitch
Trevor: And.. That's what happened.
I shrugged. She couldn't believe it. It was written all over her face.
Autumn: Thank you..
I looked over at her with confusion.
Trevor: For what?
Autumn: For trusting me with this.
Trevor: Yeah? Well, thank you..
She looked at me.
Trevor: For trusting your heart to me.
She smiled and nodded. I pulled her into a hug and held her close to my chest.
Autumn: Trevor?
Trevor: Yeah?
Autumn: You ever wish that we just would've gotten together from the jump?
I looked down at her for a moment and then shook my head.
Trevor: I don't know.. Cause I think that If we didn't go through what we did with our ex's, then we probably wouldn't value each other as much as we do now.
She nodded and looked down.
Autumn: I don't know either..
Trevor: I know..
I kissed her forehead and thought about Mark again. That dude made me laugh a lot and now all I have are memories.
~Nicole~
Diggy: You ready to go?
Nicole: I guess..
I shrugged.
Diggy: Don't be scared. It's just us and my dad.
Nicole: I ain't afraid of nothing, Daniel!
I smiled and he chuckled before lifting my chin.
Diggy: Yeah? Well, let's see how your voice does in the studio.
He teased and walked outside. It was nighttime and I couldn't help but admire the sky. Nature is my true passion, but I don't think Diggy would enjoy it as much.. I got in the car and he turned on the radio. I automatically changed the station until I found a song that I liked. He just looked at me as I jammed to my music.
Nicole: What?
Diggy: Nothing..
He shook his head with a smile.
Nicole: No, tell me.
I said as I turned the music down.
Diggy: You just get really hype when you heard the beat drop and it's cute.
Nicole: It cause I'm a hype ass bitch!
I said before jamming out again but Diggy turned off the radio before looking at me with a serious expression on his face.
Nicole: Hey!
Diggy: Don't call yourself that, Nicole. That's not what you are and you & I both know that.
I blinked and was slightly confused.
Nicole: Why not?
He just shook his head as we came to a red light.
Diggy: Just don't. Okay?
I nodded and didn't bother to turn the radio back on. The ride was kinda silent besides when he tried to tell me that I could turn the radio back on. I just shook my head and said that it was fine. Once we got to the place, my eyes lit up. The house was big! I couldn't even get out, but Diggy didn't mind because he opened my door for me and grabbed me by the hand.
Diggy: Okay Nicole. We're here. Are you okay?
I looked over at him.
Nicole: Who's house is this again?
Diggy: It's my dad's house.
Nicole: Damn.. This is a nice ass house!
I said to myself. He just laughed.
Diggy: Yeah. My dad knows everything about the music industry. Shoot. He made it.
He shrugged as we approached the front door. He took out his keys and unlocked the door. The inside was even nicer than the outside. It's hard not to be ghetto when you've never seen houses this nice.. So, I did what any girl like me would do.. I started touching stuff and stopped to look at everything. Diggy literally had to drag me to the studio and that's when shit got real.
Diggy: Nicole, come on. I promise you that I'll give you a tour after we record the song.
We walked into the studio and my face went pale.
Diggy: Nicole, this is my father.
Nicole: Russell Simmons? You mean to tell me that the Reverend Run is your father?
He chuckled.
Diggy: Yeah.
Russell: So this is Nicole?
Diggy: Yeah. She's here to help me with this new song that I wrote. It goes to a beat that I produced in the past.
He smiled over at me but I was too busy looking at a reward that Reverend Run won with his group, Run DMC. I grew up on this man's music and now I get to meet him? That's a blessing.
Russell: Nicole?
I turned to face him. He was standing in front of me.
Nicole: Yes sir?
Russell: Who's your favorite artist and why?
Nicole: Well, I like Nicki Minaj and Prince. Only because they're both crazy and their music is amazing. They express themselves without caring in everything they do and I admire that.. But that's not the answer you wanted to hear..
Russell: No..
We laughed and I put my hands on my hips.
Nicole: Well, if you would've asked me what my favorite group was, I would've said Bone Thugs'N Harmony and.. Run DMC.
He looked over at Diggy and saw his seriously expression.
Russell: I like her.
Diggy laughed and shook hands with his dad.
Diggy: I knew you would.
His eyes shifted over to where I was and he smiled.
Diggy: You ready?
Nicole: Yeah..
Diggy: Let's go.
He grabbed my hand and we walked into the studio. He put on the earphones and handed me a pair. We stood on opposite sides of each other and recorded the song.. Well.. Part of it..
Russell: That's it for tonight y'all. I have to get up in the morning for an interview with Rickey Smiley.
Diggy: Alright pops. See you tomorrow.
Reverend Run saluted us on the way out as Diggy and I were taking off our headphones. I was excited, so I hugged Diggy. I just didn't expect him to pick me up when I did. When he put me down I just couldn't stop smiling.
Nicole: Diggy, I can't believe what just happened!
Diggy: You better believe it!
Nicole: Why didn't you tell me that Reverend Run was you dad?
He shrugged.
Diggy: You never asked.
I rolled my eyes and tried to walk away, but he still had me by the hand.
Diggy: Hey, um.. Nicole..
I turned around with my hands on my hips.
Nicole: Yes Diggy, dear?
I teased and he smiled.
Diggy: I wanna play a game.
Nicole: What game?
I stood against the wall with my arms crossed.
Diggy: 21 questions.
Nicole: Oh come on, Dig!
I groaned.
Diggy: I promise that you'll like this version. Okay?
Nicole: Okay.. But can we walk to the car while playing?
He nodded and we began the game. We took turns and once we got to the twenty-first question, I had to think a long time before I came up with mine. I took a deep breath before asking.
Nicole: This one is gonna be a bit personal. Okay?
Diggy: Okay.
He nodded.
Nicole: Diggy.. Are you a virgin?
He chuckled.
Diggy: Yes.
Nicole: Really?
Diggy: No.
I crossed my arms and he began to laugh.
Diggy: Okay, okay! I am! I swear..
I nodded and then I looked at him.
Nicole: And what's your question, Daniel?
He smiled and grabbed my hands.
Diggy: Nicole, this question may be a little personal.
I nodded.
Nicole: Okay.
Diggy: But before I ask my question, I'm gonna give you a little background on it.
Nicole: Oh come on Dig..
Diggy: No no, I swear. You'll like it. I promise.
I sighed and nodded.
Nicole: Okay..
Diggy: Nicole, you're a great person that I love to be around. You're a funny girl who doesn't care about what other people say and I admire that about you. You care so much about Autumn and in the time that I've gotten to know you, I've found new reasons to like you even more each day. I love the friendship that we have. But what I'd like to have to have even more is something solid. I want to have that security that you're not going anywhere and that you'll be my best friend forever.
I was highly confused on what he was about to ask.. Is he about to ask me out or to be his best friend? Cause this is hella twisted!
Diggy: So here's my final question. Will you-.
