HADRIAN ALI:
Ever since the Reunion last season, Zeno and I have been cordial as of late. We let everything in the past out in the open, accepted it for what it was, and focused on what’s ahead of us. We hardly talk, because we have both been busy and sh-*beep*, but since we both free today, we could take our free time to chat, so I called him and invited him to Le Petit Marché, this black owned restaurant I heard about a few weeks ago and been wanting to come on through and see what they offered. Plus, I know Zeno got a lot to ask.
The scene cuts back to Hadi sitting at a two seater table with a white marble table top. As the waitress places a glass of iced water out for him, which he thanks, he sees Zeno at the entrance, which causes him to smile. Zeno approaches Hadi and reaches for a hug.
TRAZENO BARNES:
I had to admit. I was kinda excited about linking up with Hadi. I always felt like there might have been some sort of unfinished business there. So i was cool with seeing where we went. He called me out to dinner cuz we both had a lil free time our hands. So we gon see whats up.
The scene returns to the restaurant.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Hey man. Whats going on?
HADRIAN ALI:
I’m good, mane. Got a lot going on. It seems I gotta go from one area to the next now ever since Crossfit let me go. Ay, I finally bought a building for my business. It’s at Druid Hills. You know one of them boujie areas in Atlanta, but it’s real close to North Decatur.
TRAZENO BARNES:
I hear you man. But that's wussup, you got ya business poppin off. That was the dream.
HADRIAN ALI:
I know, mane. I can finally have a building of my own. Somethin that I can invest my own vision in. I know I went through hell and back to get there, but once I get some repairs and renovations made up, my business will be up and running. So what’s up wit you? What’s been goin on?
TRAZENO BARNES:
Man i been tryna stay outta trouble forreal. Just moved into my new pad about a month ago and been working on this acting gig man. No major roles just yet but I'm digging it forreal.
HADRIAN ALI:
Oh, so now you actin, bruh? You gon be the next Terrence Howard? What made you want to do acting? Though I should know that you like getting into any career you set your mind to.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Haha. Can't nobody be the next T Howard. That man is a legend. But nah that's basically what it was. Just wanted to do something different forreal. Tryna do it all man. Be the jack of all trades
HADRIAN ALI:
So you been going to auditions and sh*beep*?
TRAZENO BARNES:
Yessir. Actually just had one yesterday.
HADRIAN ALI:
That’s good! What role? Prolly somebody the main character goes on a date with, or CSI witness, or some sh-*beep*. *laughs*
TRAZENO BARNES:
That's crazy man. *chuckles* It was actually to play the lead's love interest. So we'll see how that goes.But what else been going down man? I saw that shit that went down on twitter with ole girl brother.
As Hadi shakes his head in reaction to that news, the scene transitions to confessionals.
HADRIAN ALI:
A few months ago, one of Jasmine’s brothers came at me on Twitter about last season, and it caused this huge uproar online. Even people were trying to judge Jasmine for not dragging her own family on the Internet, because she spoke to me about it a few days before it happened.
PRODUCER:
What did you think about that tweet?
HADRIAN ALI:
What did I think about it?
Hadi pauses, licking his lips and eyeing away from the camera, before coming up with the proper words.
HADRIAN ALI:
I was angry for a minute. I can’t even lie about that sh-*beep*, but this was the backlash that I had to face. It was something I needed to face to become a better man. To gain more confidence in my sexuality, but her brother has yet to speak to me after that, so that must say somethin about his own insecurities.
Scene cuts back to the restaurant.
HADRIAN ALI:
Yeah I know. It’s fu-*beep*-ed up, ain’t it? I expected that from her brothers. At least one of em anyways. They gotta be protective of their sister. It’s cool, cuz Jas and I talked it out, and let bygones be bygones.
TRAZENO BARNES:
I mean. I get it. But I feel like if she ain't worried. Why is he? That's some real fuck nigga shit. But you handled it well as always.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Hadi ain't never been to big on confrontation. But with this even I was surprised he ain't fly off the handle. These are people that you considered family. I get you're hurt. I probably woulda been too. But i feel like unless you're living this life you will never really understand how hard it is to come to terms with who you are. It's people out there way worse than ole twitter fingers. Y'all wonder why people stay in the closet. Who wants to walk around being hated just for who they vibe with?
The scene returns to the restaurant.
TRAZENO BARNES:
I woulda caught charges off that dumb nigga.
HADRIAN ALI:
Ha-ha, I know it’s wild. I expected some shit like this to happen after I came out. It’s all good though. Jas and I are cordial. I can’t deny and say that there are times when I miss her though, but she’s been stuck on going in her own lane since the break up, moving back to Cali and sh-*beep*.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Oh yea? I mean i get it. Shit i was even surprised that you were ready to take that step. I ain't gon lie that shit was mad awkward bumping into both of yall at that party.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Awkward might be an understatement. Hadi and I ain't never really been big on discussing shit. Everything was kinda always an arrangement with us. So there was never a question what was goin down. So when things went south, naturally, I didn't really ask questions. I didn't find out about his Jas till she was on the show and again naturally I just put all the questions in the back of my head.
He nervously chuckles a bit.
So I can kinda understand where her head could be at with this whole thing. I'm sure she had questions soon as she came on the set of the show. But she probably just trained herself not to ask. We do some.crazy shot when we really fuck with a person.
He chuckles as the scene fades back to the restaurant.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Especially since i ain't really seen you forreal forreal since college.
HADRIAN ALI:
What you sayin, bruh? I been wit the ladies. If anyone that surprised me was you. You and ya girl, Trinity….involved in a love triangle.
Hadi sighs.
HADRIAN ALI:
Speaking of which, I gotta go to court in a few days.
TRAZENO BARNES:
Yooo I heard about that shit. Dallas was all in the blogs talking bout you suing him and shit.
Hadi plants his face onto his palm as the scene cuts to confessionals, where Hadrian sighs before speaking his peace.
HADRIAN ALI:
I ain’t suin that ni-*beep*, mane. If he read it clear enough, the entertainment company that hosted Trin’s party is responsible for that. That includes me, Dallas, Trinity, and those cats from Los Angeles, but we just got different court papers. The LA dudes got one, and Dallas and I got one. Some real complicated sh-*beep*, but at the end of the day, both fights caused the entertainment company a bad rep and most clubs don’t want to be affiliated with them anymore. They are tryin to get their feet back up by milkin whatever cash they can get outta people. I don’t blame em, but for Dallas to believe that I was responsible for that is crazy to me. Besides, let’s be real, mane. Did it look like I was the one that needed to sue Dallas? For real, mane?
Cus back to restaurant
HADRIAN ALI:
I don’t even know what issue this man still has wit me. I assumed that we squashed our beef at the reunion show, but ever since we both got served, he been buggin about me again.
TRAZENO BARNES:
I dont even fuck with dude at all. But from what i'm hearing, he goin through a lot. Nigga just been straight wildin. He even came at me. Nigga came to my fucking house.
HADRIAN ALI:
Oh word? What happened?
TRAZENO BARNES:
He felt a lil froggy so i lept. Had to drop his ass
TRAZENO BARNES:
A whole lotta shit went down off camera. After Dallas found out about this court date he knocked on my door, straight accusing me of the shit. I don't even know how this nigga found out where I live. And he was clearly fucked up. Smelled like the whole bar. Nigga swung on me so shit went down. I just moved into this neighborhood, now i got the neighbors looking at me sideways cuz this bum ass niggas wanna fight like a child. He's really outta control. I think he needs help on a professional level.
He shakes his head as the scene returns to the guys
TRAZENO BARNES:
Yo that nigga really goin crazy.
HADRIAN ALI:
I know deep down I feel sorry for dude, but there's only so much I can take and not have somethin to say about it. If he's willing to sit down man-to-man and settle it without throwin hands, then I'll be willing to do it. It ain't even that serious, mane.
Zeno chuckles
TRAZENO BARNES:
Man good luck with that. I'm done wit that nigga. I tried to keep shit cordial but he straight trippin.
HADRIAN ALI:
I been the same way, but at some point, Dallas needs to just let it go, mane. Focus on his own problems. I got my own to worry about.
Zeno takes a nod before taking a drink of his wine before the scene transitions to Tracks nightclub, a famous club in Atlanta. Inside Chanel is shown backstage getting ready for her performance. She stares into the mirror as she plays around with her hair, the door the room she's in swings open and Rico Lemar walks in, with glasses on his face and drink in hand, he walks over to Chanel and kisses her on the cheek.
RICO LEMAR:
What's good babe? You ready?
Chanel smiles.
CHANEL SNOW:
I'm almost ready, I was just fixing my hair 0 a little bit. But I'm happy you could make it tonight. I figured you would still be walking in that show.
RICO LEMAR:
Nah I wanted to make sure I made it to the show tonight, you already know I wouldn't do you like that. This is my second time seeing you perform, well technically the first time because you told me a later time so I would miss most of the show.
CHANEL SNOW:
I know, but I was nervous letting you see me done up like this.
CHANEL SNOW:
I've secretly been seeing this guy named Rico for a couple week now, I haven't really told anyone about it because I wanted to be sure this guy was going to stick around. I usually get the bad guys, I mean look at the situation with Zeno.
Chanel rolls her eyes.
CHANEL SNOW:
And I don't want to have another situation like that, Zeno led me to believe we would have something but instead he couldn't keep his dick in his pants. But Rico wasn't like that, he was different and that's what I liked about him.
The scene cuts back to Chanel and Rico backstage.
RICO LEMAR:
I already told you that this doesn't bother me. I support whatever,work you do, and plus I think you look sexy.
Chanel blushes, she reaches for the lipstick and starts to put some on.
CHANEL SNOW:
Well hearing you say that makes me feel really good. I'm interested in seeing where things could go from here.
RICO LEMAR:
I've never dated anyone like Chanel before or should I say Malachi. This was all new to me but I was cool with it, it wasn't my place to judge or knock anyone's hustle. Plus this lifestyle was still new to me, I was experienced much in the male department but I was curious now.
Rico smiles.
RICO LEMAR:
I didn't know where we was headed but I didn't mind taking that risk, I wasn't sure if I wanted something serious but I wasn't against it either so who knows what was in store for us.
The scene fades back to Rico and Chanel.
RICO LEMAR:
Look I’m down if you down, I'm not here to cause any issues in your life or bring any issues into mine, if you keep it honest with me i'll do the same with you.
CHANEL SNOW:
I respect that, and that's cool with me. I don't know if I want to bring you around my friends yet, I think I want us to grow into something before I involved them.
RICO LEMAR:
I don't know if I want to be around them though, it seems like via social media y'all got a lot of beefs going on and I don't really want to associate myself with that.
CHANEL SNOW:
You must be talking about the issues I have with Riley and Jaser, well for the record those aren't my friends, they're more like stalkers they want to be in my circle but can't get it. So they throw as much shade as they can thinking their going to slander my character or bring me down, but honey try again because you can't come for the queen.
RICO LEMAR:
Oh you the queen now?
Chanel smiles, she jumps up from the chair and plants a kiss on Rico, the two kiss for a few seconds before being interrupted by a knock on the door.
CHANEL SNOW:
I have to go out on stage baby I'm sorry. But yes I am always the Queen, remember that. I’ll see you after my performance.
Chanel gives Rico another kiss and she rushes out the door, the scene fades and reopens at the ART MESO International Art and Fashion Exhibition in Atlanta Georgia. Cameras pan backstage showing the frenzy of everyone getting ready before focusing on the makeup station. Several artists are shown touching up models.
BRY'AN TILLY:Hey bitch! It's me! Bry’an Tilly, and this is..
He flips his hair, batting his eyelashes.
BRY'AN TILLY:Not my webshow!
He smirks, reaching in his pocket for his tiny mirror. He adjusts his hair, snapping his finger.
BRY'AN TILLY:That's better! Anyway! Back to me! Im Bry’an Tilly. I'm eighteen and fabulous! I wasn't surprised when The producers of the Life hit my line. I mean let's be real, their slogan has always been “booked” and “busy”. So why wouldn't you want someone who's actually booked..
He pauses, popping his gum.
BRY'AN TILLY:And busy!boop!
He chuckles
BRY'AN TILLY:No shade...Just Tea. Hehehe. On to my accolades! I actually just graduated homeschool a few months ago but I've been working as a makeup artist for about 5 years now. I started filming makeup tutorials on YouTube, and it took off in a major way. They started cutting me a check so i made it a full time gig. But i didn't just want to be your same ole same ole boring web personality. Performance has always been another passion of mine. I created a drag persona who I call Issa Man and incorporated that in with my makeup. I would do lil skits and shit and obviously people loved it, because my views and subscribers skyrocketed after that.
He blows on his fingernails , and brushes his shoulders off.
BRY'AN TILLY:I remember getting a call from mtv asking me to host a red carpet for the the vmas. At 16! I was through the roof bitch! And after that the bookings really started coming in. So eventually I started homeschooling so I could travel. So I've never been to prom, But the industry parties have very much so made up for that. I absolutely always knew I'd be here. I was always a star in my head, it's about time yall got into my life! The fuck!
The scene fades back to the main room of the exhibition. Cameras pan to Bry’an’s workshop setup. He is shown giving a live tutorial to a crowd in front of him.
BRY'AN TILLY:Girl! I can't emphasize enough! Blend! Blend! Blend! When in doubt. Keep blending it out. You wanna give natural barbie fish! Like you wanna give, “Girl makeup?! I just woke up and put on chapstick” even though you have the whole Sephora counter on your cheekbones tea!
The audience laughs
BRY'AN TILLY:So today, I'm at the Art Meso international Art and fashion exhibit.
He pauses, sucking his teeth
BRY'AN TILLY:Bitch! That is a lot to say!
He chuckles.
BRY'AN TILLY:Anyway, it's this huge event that happens all over the world. And Atlanta also happens to be one of their stops. I got a call, inviting me to host a makeup seminar and i was too pumped being the youngest artist invited. That actually happens a lot. This was a different experience though. Doing a live tutorial is completely different than when I'm back at my home studio. I gotta keep these bitches entertained in real time. But like anything else. Of course i slayed.
The scene returns to the workshop. Bry'an is shown finishing up his tutorial.
BRY'AN TILLY:And this… boys and girls is how you slay a face! Get into her contour, her highlight!. She is ready to storm the mall. Or a night on the town.
The crowd claps, as they admire the work he did in the model's face
BRY'AN TILLY:Now! To the fun part! Q&A! Lay them on me guys!
Hands shoot in the air. Bry'an points to one of the girls in the front
GIRL 1: Fenty beauty dropped not long ago and pretty much all the vloggers are covering it. How do you feel about the line?
BRY'AN TILLY:I think it's monumental. I love the product, down to the packaging. There truly is a shade for every complexion. They kept undertones in mind as which is what many brands don't consider. My only real complaint is that i feel that is more, medium to full coverage, while it promises to be full coverage. But that's a very minor complaint.
Another hand shoots up. Bry'an points to her.
GIRL 1: Have you ever considered your own line?
BRY'AN TILLY:I'm glad you asked! I have recently teamed up with Eyeris Beauty and came up with my own set of lashes. And if you know me, you know lashes are my holy grail! I'm actually wearing them right now!
He bats his eyelashes walking a bit closer to the crowd so they can check them out.
BRY'AN TILLY:I'll actually be giving out twenty free pairs today! So before you leave make sure you enter the raffle! And if you use the code #Btillz you'll recieve a fifteen percent discount when you buy online!
BRY'AN TILLY:And plug! These lashes are the tea honey! Drama for your mama! Okay!Eventually I'd love to go full in with producing my own makeup, but i want to be able to be a hundred percent hands on. I don't want to just be a name on a product like a lot of people. Makeup is my passion so if i do go down that avenue, it has to be legit.
The scene returns to the the venue where Bry'an is shown mingling with the crowd, taking pictures and signing autographs before fading and reopening up with a few shots of downtown Atlanta before shifting to shots of famous Atlanta area Skate park the historic Fourth Ward skate park. A few skaters are shown before the camera switches to a familiar voice.
JASER CRUZ: Hola que pasa bitches! Your favorite little hot head is back. And boy a lot has changed since the last time let me bring y'all up to speed.[/p
The camera shifts back to Jaser skating with another guy. The two then start to playfully hit each other before hugging and kissing as the scene shifts back to Jaser in Confessional
JASER CRUZ: Yeah that's right myself and Jaiden have been officially together since after filming for last season ended. It's only been a couple months but I've really been digging the positive chill vibes he brings into my life. Doesn't hurt that I think he's the best thing to come my way in a long time ether.
The scene shifts to Jaiden talking in the confessional
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: Hello my names Jaiden Figueroa, Im a singer and songwriter originally from Brooklyn New York but been down in Atlanta the past year and a half. Atlanta has been good to me so far career wise. Jaser linked me up with his friend Riley and we hit it off immediately as far as music goes.
Jaiden smiles looking at the camera.
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: And then there’s Jaser a big reason why i moved here in the first place. I've known Jaser many years now. Everything sorta just fell in place and I'm honestly pretty excited about our future together. There’s one issue holding us back but I mean time will tell.
The scene shifts back to Jaser and Jaiden now seated both are grinning ear to ear.
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: Don't look at me like that you're such a weirdo.
JASER CRUZ: Yeah well you like this weirdo.
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: Hmm, maybe I do.
JASER CRUZ: Boy stop playing.
The pair are interrupted by the sound of Jaser's phone ringing. A name pops up on it and Jaiden can bee seen rolling his eyes.
JASER CRUZ: So here's the deal. I recently found out I have a son named Quinton. A old fling of mine hit me up a couple weeks ago and let's just say me and her didn't end on the best of terms.
Jaser shakes his head
JASER CRUZ: But the timeline of when she got pregnant matches up to the times we had messed around so I couldn't deny that the boy is mine. It's really weird thinking of myself as a 19 year old father to the cutest little guy ever.
Jaser takes a deep breath and let's out a sigh.
JASER CRUZ: My baby mama Brittany and Jaiden however don't get along. At all. It's almost become physical and at this point I'm done dealing with their petty mess. At the end of the day it's about Quentin and making sure he's taken care of. I'm gonna make mistakes no one's perfect. But I can promise you guys that I’ll always give 100 when it comes to him. I know what it’s like not having a father around having to always look after moms and younger siblings. I started my grind back up again to make sure he never had to live a life I did.
The scene shifts back to Jaser and Jaiden.
JASER CRUZ: You don't have to make that face every time she calls.
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: Well I'd rather make faces over talking shit any day. I’ll let my expression do all the talking.
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: You see, Brittany has a issue with me over Jaser. She swears I stole Jaser from her when all she was was a booty call. Sorry not sorry. My man doesn’t like trash. A true upgrade.
Jaiden shrugs and laughs
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: Jaser wants us to be more cordial with each other and honestly I'm fine with that. I hate the drama. I'm over it. I've been nice I've done everything but kiss her ass. I've given you respect as the mother of his child it's time she started giving mine and Jaser's relationship some back.
The scene shifts back out
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: So are you gonna talk to her about her mouth? She's embarrassing.
JASER CRUZ: I can't control what she does or says all I can do is hope for the best.
Jaiden sighs
JAIDEN FIGUEROA: It's alright, we'll cross that bridge when it comes. But for now since I still got you let's finish up here and head out, I'm starving.
The boys kiss again as the scene shifts out to a view of the parking lot of Wells gym in Atlanta.
A silver Mercedes benz is shown pulling into one of the parking spaces. As the car comes to a stop, the engine shuts off and the door swings open. Dallas Reed is shown climbing out of the driver's seat. He flips his dreads back out of his face and closes the car door. He presses the keypad on his chain to lock the door and begins making his way toward the entrance of the gym.
DALLAS REED:
Well what's good world! The caramel daddy is back baby! Blessed to see a second season of the show. Despite all the fraud ass bums who tried their best to keep a nigga down. Shortly after filming, some undercover cats rolled up on me in the middle of a shoot and arrested me. Tried to drop a bunch of charges on me. Destruction of property. Assault and battery. Fleeing a crime scene. They got a nigga on a whole rack of shit.
But i definitely don't stay down long. I gotta show up for some bum ass court trial later, cuz apparently Hadrian bitch ass is pressing charges on me. But i'll deal with that when i get to it. Right now ya boy is busy stacking paper. I still dance. As long as i got all this sexy, I'm probably gonna dance.
He lifts up his shirt, flashing his abs
DALLAS REED:
But i been booking a few modeling gigs here and there. That's been more like a hobby tho. I ain't tryna be the next Tyson Beckford. But i also ain't bout to turn down no check either.
As of right now I'm free as a bird. Shit with me an Jalen been rocky since i found out he has a dude the whole time we was kickin it. I was practically wifing forreal. But he going home to somebody else. But it's hard to just let that go cuz i still feel like it's something. He might be fronting for the world and for social media like he happy, but i know the truth. And i told him i would be waiting for him when he came to his senses but until that time I'm chillin.
The scene fades to the inside of the gym. Dallas is shown standing at the front desk
DALLAS REED:
I’m here to see Prynceton. Could you let him know Dallas is here?
SECRETARY:
Sure. He's actually right over there working out.
DALLAS REED:
Prynceton is my best friend in the world. I've known him since I was like 7. And we were friends since. He was really there for me when shit went down with me Trini and Zeno. We were real friends even when the cameras aren't rolling.
I didn't tell him i was coming today. Just wanted to pop up for a little lunch date. We had a lot of catching up to do, especially if he was gonna end up meeting some of these fraud ass individuals eventually.
The scene fades back to the gym. Season newcomer Prynceton Wells is shown exercising. He smiles when he sees Dallas waiting for him at the front desk. He approaches Dallas and high fives him. He then reached for a hug.
PRYNCETON WELLS:
I guess they needed a lil sexy in the mix.
He smirks, chuckling. Flashing his pearly white teeth, he winks at camera.
PRYNCETON WELLS:
What's good, what's good? What it do? What it does? I'm Prynceton. I'm 26. And I'm next in line to inherit the Wells dynasty…
Cha ching!
He chuckles, as he makes it rain invisible money.
You've might have seen my last name splashed all over one of the largest chains of physical fitness centers in the United States. My great great grandpa started with one small gym here in Atlanta and that has since turned to dozens of locations all around the country.
I currently manage our Atlanta branch. Just dropped a ton of cash into the renovations including a full spa that i take full advantage of!
But my real dream is to make it in the modeling world. If course the whole family is against it. Since I'm next in line to inherit the Wells empire, they want me to be more focused on the family business. I tried to compromise by getting into fitness modeling. But even that wasn't enough for them. But I've been working really hard to show my parents i can do both. Their support means the world to me so i wanna see them proud of me.
I've known my boy Dallas for years! We have always been the best of friends. I'll admit, I'm also kinda really feeling him. Like really feeling him. I've wanted to take our friendship to the next level for a long time. But for one he was in that whole crazy ass relationship with Trazeno and Trinity. And two, I really didn't wanna ruin a great friendship with those kinds of feelings. So i just been sitting back forreal playing the field, enjoying things and seeing what's out there. I enjoy the single life. And I will until somebody comes along that wants to make me change that.
The scene returns to the two who are now shown walking outside..They both hop in Dallas’ car.He starts it up and pulls out into the street
PRYNCETON WELLS:
Dallas Reed! Aint this some shit? Mom's just asked about you the other day.
DALLAS REED:
Did she? Aye! You know i love ya momma. Tell her I said hey!
PRYNCETON WELLS:
You already know what she gonna say. Bring ya ass to see me boy!
They both chuckle
DALLAS REED:
Yeah already! Imma make some time to go see her forreal.
PRYNCETON WELLS:
She would love that. But what's going on boy! What's up with this surprise visit!
DALLAS REED:
What you mean! Can't i just slide in on my best friend and take him out to lunch! Why something gotta be up! It's just been too long. I actually missed you!
PRYNCETON WELLS:
Aww did you! I missed you too best friend! I hadn't seen you in so long. I almost went off on you. But i know you been going through a lot so i let you have your space. Speaking of, what's been goin on? How you been holding up.
Dallas sighs, chuckling.
DALLAS REED:
Man I'm good. Forreal! Dallas is gucci. You know how I roll. I don't chase em, I replace em.
Everybody think I'm sitting at home crying my eyes out and shit cuz my relationship didn't work out. But to be honest it was the exact opposite.Yea shit was fucked up how it went down but i ain't trippin. Zeno always been a bum. I don't know why Trini or I expected anything else from him. And as far as Trini go. Me and her aiight. I get why she couldn't stay with me. And i respect her for that. Dallas is good on everything. And he definitely ain't stunting off no niggas.
The scene cuts back to the car
PRYNCETON WELLS:
You too much for me! Haha. I'm just tryna make sure. You know the streets are talking.
DALLAS REED:
What the streets saying bout King Dee baby? They always talking haha. Nah man. I'm really good. I'm too blessed right now. Shit got a lol crazy but I'm good. Trust me. Don't listen to the streets. Listen to the best friend.
PRYNCETON WELLS:
You right. I hear you man. You know i just want the best for you. I hate seeing niggas get you outta pocket. But forget all that. where are we going? I ask starving.
The two laugh and continue chatting as the scene fades and reopens on the other side of town, Jalen is shown sitting down inside of a bar, he takes a sip of his drink and places it back down on the table.
JALEN HOLMES: So these last few days I've been dealing with the drama I have with Trapp, during one of our breakups I ended up hooking up with Dallas who I sort of fell for. Well I take that back, I wouldn't say I necessarily fell for him but let's just say I have strong feelings for him. Fast forward to why I'm here today. It seems like Legend Dior has this issue with me.
Jalen rolls his eyes.
JALEN HOLMES: I guess he feels like he should have an issue with me since he slept with Dallas also, honestly I really don't care. Dallas is not my boyfriend and never was, so I don't get why my name has been in Legend’s mouth. So I asked him to meet me here today so we can talked and kind of get to the bottom of this.
The scene cuts back to Jalen still sitting at the bar, the scene fades outside where Legend is shown pulling up in his White Range Rover sport. He pulls up to valet and drop his keys in valets hand. Legend makes his way inside of the bar.
LEGEND DIOR: Jalen called me and asked me to meet him here tonight, for what reason I really don't know. But I was guessing it had something to deal with Dallas, I don't understand why he feels like we need to talk when him and Dallas was only a friends with benefits type of thing so I don't get why I'm here. I don't want Dallas either.
Legend laughs.
LEGEND DIOR: It was the truth, Dallas was not in the position to be anyone's boyfriend, the man needed rehab but that's beside the point, I'm here to entertain this little conversation, have a drink, and go the fuck,home.
The scene cuts back to inside the club, Legend is shown at the bar ordering his drink. Legend walks down and joins Jalen who is already sitting down and working on his second drink.
LEGEND DIOR: Damn you look a little rough, how many drinks is that tonight?
JALEN HOLMES: I feel like if we were friends in real life then I would joke back with you but I'm not in the mood to joke right now.
LEGEND DIOR: Wow, I didn't know we weren't friends, is it something I did?
JALEN HOLMES: I don't have time for your sarcastic bullshit, I need to know why my name has been in your mouth recently?
LEGEND DIOR: I should be asking you the same question. I only spoke about you because you were speaking about me. Now we don't need to go with the back and forth with who did what or who started it but we all know why you are mad now and it's because I slept with Dallas.
JALEN HOLMES: Dallas is not my man so I could careless who you spread your legs for. All I wanted to say to you is please keep my name out of your mouth.
LEGEND DIOR: I don't recall your name on my birth certificate where my father signed. I could do as I please. You know I'm so tired of you playing the victim role, it's pathetic. You want everyone to think you're this innocent person but you're not and the world will know your dirt.
LEGEND DIOR: I know the real reason why Jalen is mad, it's deeper than Dallas. Jalen is mad at the fact that we both had sex with the same person, not just once but twice.
Legend smiles, taking a moment to let the tea sink in.
LEGEND DIOR: During Jalen’s breakup with his boyfriend, Jalen was out here being a freak hoe. And you're all probably wondering how I know, well let's just say we were both fucking the same married man, so it wasn't just Dallas involved but we had a politician on the side too.
The scene cuts back to Jalen and Legend, the two start to get angry as the conversation gets deeper.
JALEN HOLMES: I would watch what you say Legend because you definitely don't want it with me.
LEGEND DIOR: Those empty threats mean nothing to me. I want you to know that I could ruin your life if I wanted too so I suggest you stick with the winning team hoe.
JALEN HOLMES: Don't try me, just leave me alone and we’ll good. It's like you're so obsessed with me, but you can't be me.
LEGEND DIOR: Oh baby I don't want anything you have and I'm definitely not obsessed with you. You go after all my leftovers, just like you slept with Derek Hall.
JALEN HOLMES: Shut the fuck up.
LEGEND DIOR: I bet Trapp doesn't know you were sleeping with a married man.
JALEN HOLMES:
I just lost it, I didn't know why Legend was sitting here saying this shit, I couldn't help it so I blacked out.
The scene cuts back to Jalen and Legend inside the bar. Jalen lunges off the bar seat tackling Legend to the ground. Jalen goes to swing at Legend but is pulled off by security. Legend jumps to his feet kicking Jalen in his stomach and connecting forcing Jalen to the ground.
LEGEND DIOR:
ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY? DID YOU REALLY JUST TRY AND ATTACK ME SLUT BUCKET? YOU JUST MAD BECAUSE I STOLE DEREK FROM YOU..L
Jalen climbs back to his feet rushing towards Legend again but is held back from security, he reaches for the corona bottle on the bar and hurls it at Legend but Legend ducks.
LEGEND DIOR:
TRY AGAIN BITCH!
JALEN HOLMES:
YOU CAN'T HIDE BEHIND SECURITY ALL THE TIME, YOU STARTED SOME SHIT THAT I WILL FINISH PUNK HOE, YOU A SLOB.
LEGEND DIOR:
BITCH FIGHT ME.
LEGEND DIOR:
Jalen was bold tonight honey leaping off that chair trying to fight me, too bad he failed. Oh well Jalen your secret is out the bag, we were fucking the same man and yes he was married and yes he dealt with politics. But Jalen started fucking him after I did, so I see why Trapp doesn't trust him, that nigga walls for everybody.
The scene cuts back to Jalen who is now forced on the other side of the bar, security forces Legend out the front door while Jalen is still in the corner guarded by security.
JALEN HOLMES:
Legend better be on the lookout for me because this wasn't over. He thinks he could spit those type of slanderous accusations out of his mouth and not suffer the repercussions, he's fucking insane. I knew I would run into Legend again and when I see him, it's on and popping.
The scene fades to black and reopens inside of Trinity Monroe’s Buckhead mansion. Cameras pan throughout the lush pad before entering Trinity’s master bedroom. She is shown standing inside of her closet draped in a towel holding an outfit in front of her. She stares in the mirror admiring the dress.
TRINITY MONROE:
Things have been bananas since you last saw me. I recently launched “The Trinity”, which is a makeup line for women of color. You know we have so many, yet we still struggle with finding our perfect shades. I've worked really hard with my team to try and create something for everyone.
I've also started filming the second season of STAR of Fox. I've had to kind of put the brakes on my styling business but when i can, your girl is still open for business.
As you all know i am now a very single woman. I haven't spoken to Zeno or Dallas, and I like it that way. But I don't miss the dating scene. It's definitely been colorful. But i can say i may have met a guy that has my interest right now. But we'll leave it at that for now.
The scene fades back to Trinity’s bedroom. She walks over to her vanity and sits in front of the mirror. She begins to apply her makeup, when her phone vibrates in front of her. She blushes as she picks up the phone and puts it to her ear.
TRINITY MONROE:
Hey handsome!
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Hey beautiful. I’m about 15 minutes away. You ready?
TRINITY MONROE:
Just about. Putting myself together as we speak.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Ok. I'm really looking forward to this
Trinity blushes
TRINITY MONROE:
So am I! I'm so excited!
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Great! I'll see you soon!
TRINITY MONROE:
Can't wait.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Bye beautiful.
Trinity blows a kiss through the phone before sitting it back down on her vanity. She continues doing her makeup.
TRINITY MONROE:
A couple months ago, I met this guy Khalil. We had exchanged numbers, chatted a few times, even went on a date, but my schedule got super crazy. He was doing his own thing. So we kind of fell off. But he reached out to me a little while ago and we kinda reconnected. And I'm actually glad that we did.
He knew that i had never been to an amusement park before. It was something I kept putting on my bucket list, but never got around too. But today that was going to change. We both had some free time so he asked if he could take me. I was really curious to find out where his head was and what his intentions were and maybe this little outing would be a great place to start. And I can have a little fun at the same time.
The scene returns to the front of Trinity’s mansion. A 2018 Chevrolet Camaro is shown pulling up the driveway. As the car comes to a halt, Khalil is shown climbing out of the driver's seat. He walks up to the door and rings the doorbell
KHALIL HAMMOND:
What's good...my name is Khalil Hammond. I'm Philly made, but I lived in MIA for about five years. I'm a pro wrestler by the name of Storm Reynolds. I've loved entertaining people and I dreamed of being a professional athlete. Pro wrestling, for me, is the perfect marriage of the two. But also, I wanna branch into the world of acting and modeling. If you can't go to LA, why not go to the ATL, you know?
The scene returns to Khalil waiting at Trinity's door, smiling from ear to ear as he anticipates her coming out the door.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
I met Trinity on the week I moved to Atlanta. My first thought was: “Man...look at this Chocolate Goddess!” We exchanged digits and from there I took her out to dinner. I was feeling her vibe as a person: Good head on her shoulders, knows her worth..the whole nine. After that date, our schedules got a little crazy, but we reconnected after that. I'm taking her to the amusement park because: number one, she's never been; and number two, I feel like she deserves to have some fun in her life. Life's too short not to, you know?
The scene returns to the mansion. Trinity is shown walking down her steps. She opens the door with a grin on her face.
TRINITY MONROE:
Hey hey!
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Hey beautiful! You ready to have some fun?
TRINITY MONROE:
You have no idea how excited I am for this! You're looking good.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
So are you. Shall we take our leave, m’lady?
Khalil extends a hooked arm to Trinity. She grabs his arm and follows his lead to the car
TRINITY MONROE:
I like!
KHALIL HAMMOND:
What? Me being a gentleman?
Trinity chuckles
TRINITY MONROE:
Well that too. But I was talking about the car.
She climbs into the car after Khalil opens the door for her.
TRINITY MONROE:
I can't remember many times that i actually went out on a decent date, where i was wined and dined. You know. Treated like a queen. Mr. Hammond was pulling out all the stops. And I was impressed.
She pauses, holding up her finger.
TRINITY MONROE:
So far!And I'm hoping he keeps it up. I'm not gonna make this easier for him. Because they all start off good. I'm really gonna give this thing a chance though. See what he's got .
The scene fades back into the car. Trinity waits for Khalil to get in. Khalil walks over and hops in the driver's side and starts up the car. He pulls out of her driveway and gets on the road, heading to the amusement park.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
It's a 2018 Camaro. Fresh off the showroom floor. Just got this bad boy last week. It's no Bentley, but it fits me.
TRINITY MONROE:
Oh I see you flexing!
The two chuckle.
TRINITY MONROE:
So how are you liking Atlanta so far?
KHALIL HAMMOND:
I'm digging the vibe that the city has. Everybody's doing good. Everybody's living good. Nothing but opportunity here. We don't get that in Philly.
TRINITY MONROE:
Oh yeah. I've always looked at Atlanta like black LA. There's nothing you can't do here.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Yeah. So, tell me...why's a beautiful woman like you single?
TRINITY MONROE:
Like most girls i guess I've had my heart broken one too many times. Maybe I've become too guarded. I don't know.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Have you ever been cheated on and caught the person in the act?
TRINITY MONROE:
Plz! I have had to show my colors once. Unfortunately. What about you? Has someone ever broken your heart?
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Yeah. Three have. And they've all said the same thing: “You're always working!”
TRINITY MONROE:
Aaaah! I got that a lot too! As if that justified it
She chuckles.
TRINITY MONROE:
Have you ever been the heartbreaker?
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Nah. Never that. How about you?
TRINITY MONROE:
I'm not proud to say it. But yes. I actually have.
He looks at Trinity with curious expression on his face.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Word?
TRINITY MONROE:
I may not have always been this girl you see in front of you. I'd be the first to admit I've definitely done a few things I'm not the proudest of. Sometimes I feel like I'm still paying for those mistakes.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
What's past is past. We're all human. Besides…
He takes Trinity's hand as he's driving.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
...your past doesn't define who you are. And to me...you're a good person.
She blushes, looking down at hand.
TRINITY MONROE:
You might be right.
TRINITY MONROE:
He knows all the right things to say huh. Got a girl blushing like i haven't in a long time. And he's right. We've all made our share of mistakes. I don't beat myself about anything I've done in my past. And i find it hard to believe he's never broken anybody's heart before. But we'll keep that on the table for now. Because right now I'm enjoying the time that we are spending together and I'm curious too see what else he had to offer.
The scene returns to the car. The two are shown laughing and continuing their conversation as the scene fades and reopens inside of Giovanni’s apartment, Giovanni is shown having a glass of vodka and orange juice. The scene fades outside where Miles is shown walking up to Giovanni’s door.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Giovanni hit me up and asked me to stop by. I guess he heard what went down at Asanté’s party and wanted to talk about it so I was down to listen to him vent about it. I'm sure he was upset but when it comes to Asanté messy ass I wouldn't put anything passed him.
The scene fades back to Giovanni's apartment, Giovanni invites Miles inside the apartment and the two walk over to the living room area.
GIOVANNI WESTON: I appreciate you coming by, I needed to talk to someone about this shit going on with Isaiah.
MILES BALENCIAGA: I heard bits and pieces of what happened, but I don't know the full story. So what happened?
GIOVANNI WESTON: The only thing I know is that Isaiah was there with some guy named Delonte Fendi and he ended up getting into a fight with the dudes ex but that's beside the point. I just don't like he has me out here looking a fool.
MILES BALENCIAGA: That makes sense and I can see why you would feel that way but honestly I don't think that's a big deal. But everyone knows Isaiah is messy, he hangs out with Chanel and she's one of the messiest queens in Atlanta.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Here's the backstory on me and Chanel's history. We use to hang out back in the day but I wouldn't really call our relationship a real friendship. Anyway it's similar to what happen to Asanté and I, she got upset over a article I wrote and decided to approach me in a nightclub setting but in a horrible way. Since then we've always been cordial but were not friends.
The scene cuts back to Miles and Giovanni.
MILES BALENCIAGA:
I just want you to be careful hanging around that crew because they all have a bad reputation. I don't know Isaiah that well but I've heard that he’s known for sleeping with people’s boyfriends.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
That's the first I've ever heard of that. But everyone has a past so I'm not worried about that. I've already talked to him about the whole situation and were cool. But I already know I don't want to be around his friends because they all seem messy.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
I wasn't feeling how Miles was trying to bring up Isaiah’s past, I don't know if he had an issue with Isaiah or not but it was cool too me.
The scene cuts back to Miles and Giovanni.
MILES BALENCIAGA:
They only really hang around themselves to be honest, but if he makes you happy then I wish y'all a successful relationship but like I said be careful.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
I appreciate the advice I guess but I think I got this. Isaiah and I weren't really serious but we were in the dating stages, so I'm not holding this against him. Since I've met him he's only been genuine to me, I haven't seen anything less. I think it's his friends that is making it bad for him.
MILES BALENCIAGA:
I guess he needs a new set of friends. But I don't think I can be that person though. Like I said i'll leave that up to you.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
You're making Isaiah seem like this monster.
MILES BALENCIAGA:
I'm not making him seem like anything, he made himself look that way. I actually consider you a friend and I'm only looking out for your well being.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
I appreciate that but just chill with the comments about Isaiah. He's coming to my party and so are you, so I hope you would respect my wishes and just play nice.
Miles rolls his eyes.
MILES BALENCIAGA:
I guess I'll play nice for you. But if I have to play nice then you owe me some Chipotle and I want it now, so let's go.
GIOVANNI WESTON:
I can do that.
The two grab their items, wallets, phones and whatever else they need and make their way towards the door, the scene fades and reopens in Chanel’s home. Chanel is shown inside her house standing in the kitchen all dolled up, she just got back from a photo shoot early that morning and hadn't changed. She notices Isaiah walking up the driveway so she rushes over to the front door and opens it.
CHANEL SNOW: I feel like I haven't seen Isaiah in a while and granted it's only been a few days, it's just different from our normal because we usually talk on the phone everyday and see each other at least a few times a week so I just wanted to catch up and see what's been going on.
The scene fades back to Isaiah and Chanel, Isaiah makes his way into Chanel’s house, the two exchange a quick hug before walking towards the living room.
CHANEL SNOW: Finally you make time for me, I've been feeling a little neglected.
ISAIAH WOLFE: I've been a little busy honestly I apologize, but i'm sure with you being booked and busy all the time that it went unnoticed.
CHANEL SNOW: I don't know if that was fun shade or real shade but that's not true. I've tried to hang a few times before and after Asanté’s party but you've been to busy cuddled up with this secret man.
ISAIAH WOLFE: Because I actually like this dude and I don't want to bring him around my friends and all the drama. I want this to actually work.
CHANEL SNOW: I am your best friend so you would think I would have met him by now unless I'm not your best friend anymore.
ISAIAH WOLFE: You are being dramatic right now, it's not that deep. I apologize for my lack of time but i'll do better, now can we talk about something else.
ISAIAH WOLFE: Part of the reason why I wasn't bringing Giovanni around was because of Chanel, I mean the drama she was involved in and stayed in was way too draining. I wanted to bring it up to her so bad but I knew it would be an issue.
The scene cuts back to Chanel and Isaiah.
CHANEL SNOW: That shit that went down at Asanté party was dumb, I can't believe that boy tried you like that but then again you kind of set yourself up for that one.
ISAIAH WOLFE: What? I mean you can't talk because you set yourself up in situations all that time that probably shouldn't happen.
CHANEL SNOW: Where is all this anger coming from? Was it something I said?
ISAIAH WOLFE: No, look I'm just tired of being thrown into your shit. I am your friend but as your friend I shouldn't have to put up with unnecessary drama that I shouldn't be involved in. I'm with this guy and I just want positivity in my life and I just can't deal with your drama.
CHANEL SNOW: I'm like shocked,I don't know where all this coming from but I suggest you quit while you're ahead. Because I could sit here and say a lot of stuff about you if I wanted too.
CHANEL SNOW: Hold up Isaiah, I don't know who he thinks he is coming over here saying all I do is bring drama. I've been nothing but a good friend and have defended him in battles that didn't concerned me and now he wants to make it seem like I'm the issue? He has the nerve.
Chanel shakes her head, flipping her hair to the shade. She kicks her lips and looks back into the camera.
CHANEL SNOW: All I know he better keep it cute, i'll let him vent but trust he hear how I feel.
The scene fades back to Chanel and Isaiah.
ISAIAH WOLFE: You dragged me into your beef with Riley and Jaser, your part of the reason why me and Riley aren't friends and you're the reason those clowns can't my name of their mouth. Every Time I signed onto social media I have to defend myself against the bird bitch gang and I'm tired of it.
CHANEL SNOW: Wow where is all this coming from? I mean I know I got issues with a few people but I didn't mean to drag you into it. Like what's wrong?
ISAIAH WOLFE: I just don't want anymore issues, look just leave me out of the bullshit because I am tired of it and it's fucking with my relationship and I think I've found the right guy.
ISAIAH WOLFE: Maybe I was coming at her a little hard, but I was irritated, I already had Giovanni coming at me about my friendship with her and the drama she involves me in, maybe I just need to distance myself from her because it was becoming too much.
Isaiah shrugs.
ISAIAH WOLFE: Sometimes friends need a break.
The scene cuts back to Isaiah and Chanel.
ISAIAH WOLFE: I just need a break, I wanted to make that clear, I need to go.
CHANEL SNOW: I didn't know what the hell was going on, this was a shock to me.I get that my drama might have been causing an issue for Isaiah but to say he needed a break was overreacting.
Chanel shakes her head.
CHANEL SNOW: But I’ll give him his space, I'm not the type of bitch to beg for a friendship so it's whatever.
The scene opens up outside of west Atlanta restaurant Two Urban Licks. Jaser is seen pulling up in his white GTR. He parks and heads inside and is greeted by Brittany.
JASER CRUZ: I agreed to meet up with Brittany today. She said she wanted to discuss things about Quinton. We are cordial esp when it comes t my son. She could be a real bitch about it but thankfully so far she hasn’t been.
The scene shifts back as the pair are now seated.
BRITTANY JENEA:So first off thanks for coming alone, that side kick of yours was pretty annoying last time.
Jaser scuffs
BRITTANY JENEA:after talking to my mom and dad, I’ve decided to put you on child support. Since we ain’t getting married anytime soon I need more help. Your son is eating through my wallet and it’s time you pitched in.
JASER CRUZ: I'm not sure where this is coming from, I already give her $250 a week. That’s a thousand dollars already since he’s been born. I have no issue paying the money to help my son but in that time she hasn’t let me see him but a handful of times. And if she wants to play that game I’ll play it.
The scene shifts back as The waiter brings the pair their meals.
JASER CRUZ: So here’s my take on that. Im cool with the child support. I just want to see my son more. If I’m gonna be in his life and trying to do the right things need to be able to be there.
BRITTANY JENEA:Well are you sure that the life you live is good? I don’t want my son around your fights and drama. I don’t want my son around that foolishness. You think it’s ok for him to see you with who you’re with? He’s gonna grow up confused about things and I don’t want that. And neither should you.
JASER CRUZ: I wanna act like I’m surprised she went there but I’m not. Ever since I blew her off she’s had this chip on her shoulder esp when it comes to Jaiden. He’s in my life so she’s gonna have to just drop whatever notion she has in her head and just move on.
The scene shifts back
JASER CRUZ: Well like I said if you wanna do that that’s fine. But I will be going to the courts and see about getting more of a 50/50 thing going on.it's only fair.
Brittany rolls her eyes
BRITTANY JENEA:Whatever Jaser, I don’t want my son around that boy you're with. And that’s that on that. If he wants to come at me respectfully I’ll consider but until then my mind is made up.
Brittany stands up and grabs her things
JASER CRUZ: I'll talk to him Brittany. Just don’t dangle my son in front of me like that ever again it’s not right.
Brittany can be seen smirking before walking away as the scene fades and reopens at LA fitness. Cameras pan through the gym showing people working out until it reaches the weights in the back. Blair is shown lifting.
BLAIR WOOD:I got a lil gig coming up and my agent told me they wanted me to bulk up a little more before it cane. So I've been spending a spending a lotta time in the gym. I called my bro Jae out to see what's been up with him. Plus i hated working out by myself
The scene returns to the gym. Jaeshon is shown walking into the gym. He approaches Blair, who greets him with na dap and hug.
BLAIR WOOD:Brother! What goes on man?
JAÉSHON WOOD:What hasn't been going on?
Jaéshon smiles.
JAÉSHON WOOD:I haven't really talked to Blair much since we moved to Atlanta, we both been doing our own thing honestly but it was great to finally catch up. I wanted to tell him that I met up with Hadrian and wanted to see if he was opened to meeting him too.
The scene fades back to Jaéshon and Blair inside the gym.
JAÉSHON WOOD:What's been going on with you though? How's everything with that girl LaLa?
BLAIR WOOD:Man shit is tight. She definitely more my speed. She tryna get me to move in with her but I'm tryna get shit right on my own, you know. What about you though. I feel like we ain't chopped it up in a minute twin. What's been happening
JAÉSHON WOOD:The same honestly, been trying to get out of this man’s basement for real.
Jaéshon chuckles.
JAÉSHON WOOD:I'm renting a room right now until I can move into a real place, it's not bad though I have the whole basement to myself, a private entrance and my own bathroom. Work has been kind of dry though so keeping up with money has been difficult.
BLAIR WOOD:Man… i hear you. U know i'm up in that small ass studio shit. My girl La la, tryna get me to move in with her forreal.
JAÉSHON WOOD:LaLa?
JAÉSHON WOOD:Man I can't keep up with my brother and his chicks, I just met a girl a few a weeks ago by the name of Trinity and she was dope, I was actually excited about her.
Jaéshon shrugs.
JAÉSHON WOOD:But I guess you'll go through a few before you find that one.
The scene cuts back to Blair and Jaéshon
JAÉSHON WOOD:So I guess Trinity is out the picture?
Blair chuckles and shrugs.
BLAIR WOOD:Man i fucked wit her hard too. But she was slight trippin. So we just decided to be friends.
BLAIR WOOD:I really did like Trini, thought we coulda had something forreal. But she's already established. She had a path. I'm still tryna figure shit out. I knew i wasn't the kind of man she wanted so i got out before shit got too heavy. And plus i seen she hadn't really let go of that attraction she had to ole boy khalil. I wasn't tryna be no rebound situation. So we gon see how this friend thing works
The scene returns to the brothers
BLAIR WOOD:Man Trini was dope. I might've just been a lil too young for her. And you know me bro. That being tied down shit is not really my style. Lala seems to be more my speed. We not exclusive or nothing yet. But we rock with each other. We got a food lil situation. I could see her making me settle wanna settle down. But. Then again you know me bro, my attention span is small. And my eyes like to wander.
He smirks
JAÉSHON WOOD:Well whatever makes you happy, just don't go out here breaking hearts bro. But I did want to talk to you about something else though.
Jaéshon pauses.
JAÉSHON WOOD: I talked to Hadi the other day and he wants to meet up, with us both you know to talk and I think we should. I know how you feel about him waiting so long to do it but I really think we should hear him out.
Blair chuckles
BLAIR WOOD:
Nah fam. I’m good.
BLAIR WOOD:So Hadrian finally decides he wants to reach out to his poor brothers.
He grunts, chuckling.
BLAIR WOOD:I just find it crazy that our whole childhood we didn't exist to this nigga, now all of a sudden there's some cameras so you wanna meet? All that nigga did was talk trash about us and our dad. Jae can meet up wit that clown if he want to. But y'all can have that fake ass meeting without me.
The scene cuts back to Blair and Jaéshon.
BLAIR WOOD:What we need to meet wit this fool for? He ain't wanna meet when we tried all them times before. What's different now? You dumb as shit if you meet with this nigga. How did he even get ya number?
JAÉSHON WOOD:It was through social media but that doesn't matter and that's one of the reasons why I think we both should be there, maybe he can tell us why he wasn't around and I don't know give us background on his life. I just wish you wasn't so against the idea, it could be something positive for our life.
Jaéshon sighs.
JAÉSHON WOOD:I know if we ever stopped talking it would devastate us both, I just wish you think about it before you just up and say no.
BLAIR WOOD:Nah dog. I aint wit it. We know why he wasn't there. He was mad dad chose mommy over his mom. Thats some hating ass shit bro. We didn't make dad sleep wit mommy. Why he take that shit out on us? Now you had your lil fake ass coming out story and on tv tryna play victim and shit. Nah bro. Call me when these cameras aint in our face so I know it's real. You could fall for that bull if you want but i aint wit it.
BLAIR WOOD:As far as I'm concerned I got one brother and thats twin. Blank.... Period.
The scene fades back to the two.
BLAIR WOOD:Look. I ain't got nothing to think about. My answer is still gonna be no. As long as you good. I'm good. I don't wanna keep talking about this clown. Okay
JAÉSHON WOOD:Aiight man. Forget I brought it up.
The two continue chopping it up as the scene fades and reopens in Cobb County Georgia in the parking lot of Six Flags over Georgia. Khalil pulls into a parking space.
TRINITY MONROE:
We are finally here at the amusement park, and i am beyond excited. I feel like a five year old. I'm really looking forward to an awesome date.
Thes scene returns to the car. Khalil and Trinity are shown walking toward the entrance.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
I wanted to take Trini to Six Flags for her first time at an amusement park and allow her inner child to come out. I'm gonna make sure that she has the time of her life.
Thes scene returns to Khalil and Trinity walking through the entrance and walking around the amusement park.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Today is all about you. Whatever you wanna do is cool with me.
TRINITY MONROE:
Well i hope you aren't afraid of heights! Because I want to do everything!
Khalil smiles at Trinity.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
It's whatever, love. Just name it and we'll do it. Don't worry about paying a dime. It's all on me.
Khalil kisses Trinity's forehead gently. She blushes as the two walk into the park.
TRINITY MONROE:
Oh my goodness! And you have to win me a big teddy bear!
TRINITY MONROE:
As cliche as it might sound, I've always wanted a guy to win me a bear. When i was younger, i would watch movies and see how happy it would make the girls, when their guy would pull out all their tricks to win her the biggest bear. Seemed like a fairy tale back then. Guess i was gonna find that out today.
The scene fades back to the park
KHALIL HAMMOND:
So, m’lady...what should we do first? Ride something? Play some games? Like I said, today is all about you.
She looks around and notices a huge bungee drop ride not far from where they are.
TRINITY MONROE:
That looks like it might be fun! What do you think?
KHALIL HAMMOND:
I'm down...let's do it!
Khalil smiles at Trinity. He takes her by the hand and leads her to the bungee drop.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
So, she points out the bungee drop, and I'm like: “Yo!” I mean, I haven't done a bungee drop since 8th Grade. So, I know I'm gonna have as much fun as she will today.
TRINITY MONROE:
Girl! So i was merely testing him. I didn't think he was actually going to say yes! And i can't back down now. He looks super excited to do it. They always say there's a first time for everything. So i guess i was going bungee jumping. Somebody save me!
The scene returns to the bungee drop where Khalil and Trinity get their harnesses fitted for them.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
You ready for this, Trini?
TRINITY MONROE:
Ummmmmmmmmmmm
The park attendant chuckles as he makes sure the two are locked in securely. Trinity looks to Khalil
TRINITY MONROE:
So in case we, you know, die up here. I just want you to know i enjoyed all 20 minutes of this date.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
We won't die, love. As a man, I'll make sure that nothing happens to you. Besides, we have on harnesses and there are thick mats below us. You have nothing to fear with me around.
Khalil kisses Trinity's forehead to comfort her. Trinity blushes
TRINITY MONROE:
At this point he could have been leading me into slavery and I would have followed him.
she chuckles, blushing
TRINITY MONROE:
He's too smooth with it. I'm gonna have to be careful with this one. And it doesn’t help that he looks so fine. Let's get this jump over!
The scene fades back to the jump. The park attendant prepares them for their jump. Moments later the two are shown flying toward the earth. Trinity screams at the top of her lungs the entire way down. As they come to a complete stop, Trinity is still screaming, squeezing onto Khalil.
TRINITY MONROE:
Are we dead? We're dead! This is heaven.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
We're not dead. Open your eyes...it's okay.
Trinity chuckles, opening her eyes as the attendant frees them from the harness.
TRINITY MONROE:
That was absolutely bananas! I cannot believe we did that!
Khalil chuckles, wrapping his arm around Trinity.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
It was fun, though. Right?
TRINITY MONROE:
It was actually! Now that I'm in the ground. It definitely wasn't bad at all.
Khalil chuckles.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Glad you liked it. So...what next?
As the two are walking through the park, Trinity notices a huge pink plush bunny hanging from the wall of one of the game stations. Khalil notices her eyes widen
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Want me to win that for you?
Khalil smiles.
TRINITY MONROE:
Let's see what you got
KHALIL HAMMOND:
I'll make you a deal: if I win that giant bunny, you owe a kiss and another date. How's that?
Khalil smirks. Trinity smiles
TRINITY MONROE:
I think that sounds like a fair deal.
Khalil smiles and extends his hand to Trinity.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Shall we?
Trinity smiles, grabbing his hand. She follows his lead.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
So, Trini spotted a giant pink bunny that she liked at one of the game stations. Her eyes lit up when she saw it, so I'm like, “That's what she wants. I gotta get it for her.”
Khalil grins.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Like I said...today's all about her.
The scene fades back to the park. The two are shown standing at the game. Khalil is taking his tries to win the bear. After a few attempts a loud ring is heard indicating that he had won. Trinity jumps with excitement. She points to the bear she wanted and the attendant hands it to her. She blushes, looking at Khalil.
TRINITY MONROE:
I am having a great time. Khalil has definitely been pulling out all the stops to make sure I had a smile on my face the whole time. I'm definitely pleased. Maybe another date is in our future.
The scene fades back to the park. The two are shown facing each other as Khalil has his arms around Trinity's waist. Khalil smiles at her.
KHALIL HAMMOND:
Looks like you owe me…
TRINITY MONROE:
I guess a deal is a deal huh?
She smirks as Khalil pulls her in for a kiss. The scene fades and reopens at Bravo Photography located in a shopping district located in Buckhead, Miles is shown inside the photo studio posing in front of camera, giving off different poses while the cameraman snaps away.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Life has been so busy for me lately, I recently launched my own blog website where of course I give of fashion tips, sell a few items and just do what I do as a fashion blogger. I've partnered also with a few cosmetic lines just as a side hustle while I continue to build my empire in this fashion world.
Miles smiles rubbing his hands together.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Today i’m doing a photoshoot for a local magazine that's promoting some of the local talents whether it's from accessories to clothing. They needed a model and when they asked me I couldn't say no. I hit my boy Jaser up to see if he was free, Jaser and I have a close bond, we've only been friends a few years but when we first met, we meshed so well. I remember meeting him during a Pride Event, he was actually walking one of the fashion shows and of course I was asked to help design, dress, and blog about the event and that's how we ran into each other. So I asked him to stop by just so we can chat and kind of catch up.
The scene cuts back to Miles still taking photos, a few more shots are done before Jaser is shown making his way inside the studio. Miles notices Jaser walking in so he quickly jumps down off the set and embraces him.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Heeeeyy boooooo
JASER CRUZ:: Miles is someone i’ve known for a while now. And when he reached out to hang out I couldn't say no. It's honestly been a while since we last linked up. So I'm hoping everything just picks up from where we left off.
The scene shifts back to Jaser and Miles standing talking.
JASER CRUZ:: This is a nice little setup you got going on here. How's everything been? Feels like it's been forever.
MILES BALENCIAGA: It has been forever, matter of fact it's been way too long, I was thinking about you the other day so I said to myself, I need to call Jaser and catch up.
Miles smiles.
MILES BALENCIAGA: But I've been good honestly, working hard and wishing I had time to play. What about you though? I heard you had a new man in your life, I need details.
JASER CRUZ: Ahh, Jaiden. He’s this sweet singer I met years ago working in New York. He moved down here a year ago and we just clicked. Once all the drama from my last relationship was dead and gone we decided to try and see what we could be. There’s no titles yet but we are roommates right now. Just don’t sleep in the same bed every night. He has his space, I have mine. It works.
JASER CRUZ:: Honestly, I’m glad Miles reached out. I don’t have to many people here in Atlanta I can call a friend but I know Miles is definitely one of them.
the scene returns to the two.
JASER CRUZ: So what’s going on with your love life mister? I’d figure you’d be boo’d up by now. Someone’s gonna try and grab your little cute ass.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Baby I wish, but the only thing grabbing this ass is my own hands and these cute underwear I got on.
MILES BALENCIAGA: That's one thing I won't do in Atlanta is date, these men don't know monogamy if it smacked them in face and it seems like everyone likes smashes the same person and I can't get down like that. I know one day my Prince would come along but hopefully he was some rich Prince or King from another country with an account that has never ending zeroes.
The scene cuts back to Jaser and Miles.
MILES BALENCIAGA: I don't have the time, my schedule keeps me so busy so I just use my toyfriend Kenny D Boy and I handles mines.
Miles laughs winking at Jaser
MILES BALENCIAGA: Do you still hang around that one guy? Uhh what's his name again? Riley I think? I heard he messed with Isaiah, I shook my head at that because he's a mess and he now is dating one of my good friends Giovanni and I’m not too happy about that.
Jaser rolls his eyes and shakes his head when Isaiah is mentioned
JASER CRUZ: Yeah me and Riley still like two peas in a pod. And Isaiah is that fuck boy that thinks he’s not one. Like he won’t acknowledge his shit but act like it’s not there. And the birds he flocks with ain’t no better.
CONFESSIONAL CAM
JASER CRUZ: I already know I’m gonna catch heat for this someway. But honestly I have no ties to Isaiah or his handler so why should I care?
Jaser Chuckles
JASER CRUZ: We all know Chanel can’t fight, and Isaiah ass..
Jaser rubs his chin as the scene shifts back to the guys
JASER CRUZ: Me and Isaiah are weird. I had a issue with his best friend and he always seemed to insert himself into our shit somehow then wants to try and be my friend inviting me to shit and having sit downs to squash shit but then go and join with his friend talking shit.
Jaser rolls his eyes again and throws up the peace sign
JASER CRUZ: I hate fake bitches and that’s all it seems Atlanta has to offer. I would definitely try to talk some sense into Gio before he ends up dealing with their bullshit.
MILES BALENCIAGA: Oh I already know, Isaiah thinks his life is all squeaky clean but baby I know some dirt on that boy that would rock his world, but I won't stoop to that level unless I need too and so far he hasn't given me a reason to expose him.
Miles smiles, giving off shade.
MILES BALENCIAGA: And it makes it hard too because he is dating my really good friend, but I am having a little get together soon and I'm sure Isaiah will be there since Giovanni is coming so play nice for me boo, i'll make sure to have your vip section on the other side of the room. And of course invite some of your friends even this new guy because I would like to meet him.
Jaser laughs
JASER CRUZ: Ooop, sis you know I’ll be there with my ratchet ass to support ya. And I’ll bring my lil man along too.
MILES BALENCIAGA: I can't wait, now it's officially a party, but boo they're calling me back on set so let me get back to work, we should grab lunch one day.
Jaser smiles and the two hug it out, Jaser makes her way towards the entrance while Miles goes back on set posing for his photos.
