Chapter 19

YOUR P.O.V.

Mom- That’s so amazing baby..

Y/N- *wipes her tears* How the hell am I gonna thank him for this?

Evie- *shrugs* Kiss him?

Y/N- *straight faces her*

Dad- Wow. This kid really has got his head screwed on. 

Y/N- I told you dad. And you didn’t even believe in him

Dad- No.. I just thought the rap game was too weak. Now I see where he’s at and what he can do, I only want the best for him. And you. Look at what he did for you Education is power and Diggy knows it

Y/N- *smiles to herself*

*that night* *2am*

DIGGY’S P.O.V.

Diggy- *pulls his suitcase in the apartment* *turns on the lights*

2am. I only just got back from Chicago and I had so much fun. Despite it all, the little gigs I did, the touring and interviews, my mind was on the girl who made it all happen. Y/N was my rock. I’m hoping she had a good birthday, that she liked my present and had fun while I was away

Diggy- *peeks in your room* *sees you sleeping with Jordan* *walks over and kisses your head*

Y/N- *opens her eyes a little* Dig?

Diggy- *smiles at you* Hope you liked my present

Y/N- *whispers* It was so amazing, thank you

Jordan- *grumbles in his sleep* *pulls you closer*

Diggy- I’ll er.. see you in the morning huh?

Y/N- *nods*

Diggy- *leaves*

*a few months later*

Y/N- *hands him a water*

Diggy- You sure you can be out here?

Y/N- I have a private tutor here all the time Dig, I’m fine. I’ll tour with you and be here with you at these gigs, it’s not a problem

Diggy- *drinks some water* Thanks

Y/N- You were amazing out there, I’m so proud of you. Who woulda thought huh? A mixtape out, an album coming.. every stadium in the country wants you.. it’s crazy

Diggy- *laughs* Not every stadium tho

Y/N- But Dig, seriously man, you gotta control these bitches on tour. I can’t be throwing punches at these girls and slapping these hoes, I ain’t here for that, nuh-uh. It’s happened twice already, it’s gotta stop

Diggy- *chuckles* You handling it well, don’t worry.

Y/N- Sure I am. Sure feels good dishing out a couple slaps tho.

It’s weird not being able to be with her. Having to keep it professional was hard. I mean, she’s my bestfriend and manager. She went where I went, knew me like the back of my hand, made me feel better when I was down and made sure that if I went anywhere, everything I’d need and want was there. I couldn’t ask for a better manager.

But… I couldn’t not look at her and wonder what it’d be like if we were together… but at this point in time, I didn’t wanna ruin us. She was happy with Jordan. I’d been with a few girls for these last four months. I guess this was how it was.

Y/N- *stands up* Gonna go and make sure that when we get outta here, we’re outta here, okay? I need to check on a few things with the organisers

Diggy- Sure

Y/N- *leaves*

YOUR P.O.V.

Y/N- *walks out and closes the door*

We got closer, a lot closer. Mentally and emotionally, me and Dig were tight. But he’s not only my bestfriend, he’s a client. And like a brother to me. Nothing could ever happen between us. I barely felt anything for him. Things had changed.

Daniele- *walks up to you and smiles* Hey *hugs you* Is Diggy in there?

Y/N- Yeah, yeah he’s just getting ready to leave

Daniele- Can I go in?

Y/N- *nods* Yeah, sure.. no messing around. 

Daniele- *winks at you* You’re so funny.. .*walks in the room* *closes the door*

Y/N- *laughs and shakes her head*

Diggy had been with a few girls in the last four months. He’d learned from his past mistakes and now was involved with Daniele. She was.. stunning to say the least. Absolutely beautiful and amazing to work with. Me and her became really good friends and I introduced them to each other… funnily enough. I wasn’t jealous at all. I just let them do what they wanna do.

*a few minutes later*

Y/N- *knocks and walks in* I just got word that.. oh for fuck sake guys

Daniele- *gets off Diggy* *laughs and wipes her lips*

Diggy- *bites his lip at her* *looks at you* What?

Y/N- I didn’t knock for you guys to still be kissing when I walk in!

Daniele- *smirks and looks down* Sorry…

Diggy- *chuckles*

Y/N- Management said we can leave… it’s gonna be crazy tho. The venue is full of fans and traffic since the show

Diggy- *sighs* Aite.

*at the interview*

Interviewer- The album.. sounds like it’s gonna be great. The mixtape was.. fire by the way

Diggy- *chuckles* Thank you so much. I’m really working my hardest on it. It’s gonna be my best effort. Way better then anything I did before.

Interviewer- Any guest appearances?

Diggy- Only a few. I want this to be my album. My showcase, my project. I’m handling it, I’m producing a bit of everything, throwing my talents out there. It means so much that I can have something as my own *smiles and winks*

Interviewer- *blushes and chuckles*

Y/N- *rolls her eyes*

I caught Diggy giving the interviewer all these flirtatious looks… when I say a lot has changed in the last few months, I mean that boy has gotten cockier and more self-absorbed than ever. I never saw this coming, but now it was here.. and I had to work with it.

Interviewer- As we know, you’re about to turn 20, the big 2-0, and it’s a big deal.. and you’re an even bigger deal seeing as you’ve got a way with the ladies, a whole lotta fans out there.. what’s the deal?

Diggy- *laughs* I gotta say, and I can’t deny that I love the ladies. They’re my biggest fanbase, I do it all for em. They got me.

Interviewer- You’re thirst trapping, sub-tweeting, dropping hints.. Dies Diggy Simmons have a lady in his life? What’s goin on there?

Diggy- *shrugs and laugh* I can’t.. I don;t even know *laughs* I got ll this going on, I’m just having fun and being myself, you know. On tour, I got the best team, yeah a few fans here and there..

Interviewer- What about the ladies you’ve been linked to? There was Stephanie Bertram and even Zendaya..

Diggy- *laughs* No comment

Interviewer- What about your girl, the beautiful Daniele? What’s goin on there?

Diggy- We’re really good friends *smiles*

Interviewer- Friends, huh?

Y/N- *rolls eyes and laughs to herself*

Diggy- *glances at you and chuckles* Yeah 

We all knew “friends” meant “more than friends”. Diggy and Daniele? They were close. Fucking on the low, but still close. No labels or commitments, it was just sex.. and they were happy with that. So I let it be.

Interviewer- How does it feel having your bestfriend as a manager, I know you’ve expressed your admiration for Y/N in the past, is it more than that? I feel like it is somehow..

Diggy- *rubs his hands together and sighs* The thing is.. I love Y/N. A lot. We’re bestfriends and we’ll always be super close. She’s my manager, she was here from the get-go and the start when I wanted to make it on my own. I tell her everything, she knows everything about me. I have a lotta love for her, but no.. it’s professional and we’re friends. That’s it.

Y/N- *smiles at the ground*

*at the restaurant*

He brushed off the fans, took pictures, soaked up all the attention he was getting from the paparazzi.. Diggy. He’d changed. I’m not sure if it was for the better either. He’d become more cocky and stuck-up. A far cry from the New Jersey shy and introverted boy I’d grown to befriend. But when it was just us two.. he was never like this. He was normal, like the guy I’d first met. He just put on a front for the world to see, but I was the omly person who really knew him.

Before, burger joints were all he loved, and now he only wanted the five-star restaurants. Sushi and steak meals waited for him backstage and he’d only dress in designer labels, looking down at anyone he’d pass.. so to see him looking so down at the dinner table confused me, but he had Daniele whispering sweet nothings in his ear and stealing his glances, I left him to it.

Jordan- *raises his eyebrow* Just friends, huh?

Diggy- *pulls his hand off Daniele’s leg* *laughs to himself*

Jordan- *wraps his arm around you* *whispers in your ear*

Y/N- *looks down and giggles* 

Diggy- *glances at you both*

Jordan- *slides his hand on your leg*

Y/N- *slaps him playfully* Stop.. *giggles* We’ve got company

Jordan- *smiles* It’s no problem *pulls you closer* *kisses your cheek*

Diggy- *looks at you both* *looks down at his plate*

DIGGY’S P.O.V.

*an hour later at the house*

Y/N- *kisses him and laughs* Just give me five minutes

Jordan- Aite.. walks upstairs*

Y/N- *walks to Diggy* *sits next to him* Hey…

Diggy- *doesn’t look at you* Hey.

Y/N- What’s up with you? You not feeling like a superstar anymore?

Diggy- *sighs* I just. I don’t need it.

Y/N- What? Come on, you’re Diggy Simmons. The Diggy Simmons. Heartthrob all over the world, you got thousands of girls all over you an album that is set to go platinum and your face is on the cover of every magazine, what more could you want?

Diggy- *looks away*

Y/N- Look, whatever’s bothering you, you can tell me

Diggy- It’s nothing. I’m fine.

Y/N- *sighs* Okay.. *kisses his cheek* Night Dig… *walks upstairs*

Diggy- *hears the door close* Night Y/N.

*a few hours later*

Y/N- *in her room* *screams* It doesn’t fucking work like that!!

Jordan- Well what the fuck did you expect?! Me to just sit around and play happy couple by myself?!

Diggy- *wakes up slowly* *pulls the pillow over his face* *screams into it*

Y/N- *stamps around the house* I can’t believe you right now! You’re such a fucking sleaze! *slams a door*

Diggy- *gets out of bed* *walks out* *looks downstairs*

Jordan- *follows you to the hall* You know what? Maybe it’s fair that I have my side pieces and you have yours, I can’t be playing this game all on my own!

Y/N- *points in his face* No, because you don’t fucking go texting other fucking whores while you’re with me! What do you think this is? This isn’t an open relationship!

Jordan- I can’t talk to other girls, you’re rteally tryna say that huh?

Y/N- *walks up to him* Yes I am! It’s disrespectful and you’re entertaining them, am I dumb? Do I look like I have stupid written across my head?! Get the fuck out!! *pushes him*

Jordan- Of my own house?!

Diggy- *clears his throat*

Jordan/Y/N- *look up at him*

Diggy- So.. you guys wake me up outta a three hour sleep for this?

Y/N- *looks at Jordan* *shoves him and holds back tears* Just fucking leave!!

Jordan- *looks up* Fine. *leaves and slams the door*

Y/N- *grabs the vase* *throws it and cries*

Diggy- *walks downstairs* You know you gon have to clean it up…

Y/N- *sobs*

Diggy- *sighs* *walks over and hugs you*

*an hour later*

Y/N- Stupid fucking bitch, fucking asshole, what a hoe! *sniffles and wipes her nose*

Diggy- Um, you talking bout him or the girl he was texting?

Y/N- All of them! Him and the three fucking side pieces…

Diggy- I’m sorry..

Y/N- *closes her eyes and sighs*

Diggy- *stands up* Well… I think that’s me for tonight. Do you think.. you’ll be oka—

Y/N- *shakes her head* No, no.. Diggy. I need you here. Please. I don’t wanna be on my own right now

Diggy- *nods* Alright *sits down beside you* *holds you*

Y/N- *rests her head on him*

Diggy- *strokes your hair* You’re not on your own, I’m here *kisses your head* Don’t worry…

Y/N- *pauses* *looks up at him* *holds his hands*

Diggy- *looks down at you*

Y/N- *leans in and kisses him* *pulls away a little*

Diggy-  *slides his hand on your waist* *stares at your lips*
