Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE;

I got a call from Chanel today and she asked me if I could meet her, she wanted me to help her try out food for her party and to also help pick male models to I guess serve her guests during the party.

Isaiah smirks.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

I’m guessing they’ll be half nude but that’s fine with me, I need some excitement in my life.

The scene opens up in ATL, Isaiah is shown walking into a small lounge, inside Chanel is shown sitting at one of the bigger tables, Isaiah makes his way over to where Chanel was sitting and the two exchanged a hug.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Girl when you called me and was like I need you to help me look at some men, I’m like what the hell is she talking about.

Chanel laughs.

CHANEL SNOW:

I told you I wanted us to hang out more, and I figured you wanted to look at some eye candy, hell you're single and now living in Atlanta, ain’t nothing wrong with looking.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

The food looks great.

Isaiah reaches over and grabs some of the fruit from the plate on the table.

CHANEL SNOW:

I told them to keep it small, we only have this place for a few hours so I figured I didn’t want to waste food.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Well bring on the men, I’m ready.

Several male models walk into the room, they all stand in front of the table where Chanel and Isaiah were sitting.

CHANEL SNOW:

Thank you gentleman for taking time out of your busy schedules, I hope all you guys are busy.

Chanel smiles as some of the men respond with laughter.

CHANEL SNOW:

Anyway as the ad said, this gig is for a party I am hosting, and really all it entitles you to do is walk around, look pretty, maybe flirt with the guest if you want and also serve food and drinks.

Chanel pauses, licking her lips.

CHANEL SNOW:

Also I will need you guys to wear sexy bottoms, I need you shirtless so a 6-pack or chiseled body is required. Now when I say bottoms I mean boxer briefs even though I think that is kind of tacky, but it’ll work. I prefer nice underwear with some sexiness attached.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Do you think you guys can handle that?

They all nod.

CHANEL SNOW:

So what I’ll need for you to do now is just take your clothes off leaving you in just your underwear and we’ll check you out, once your chosen we’ll go over the details of the party, what the rate will be and what I’ll need from you if anything more.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Alright gentlemen, let’s get to work.

The models all start to strip, Chanel and Isaiah mouth widen at one of the contestants whose manhood started peaking through his shorts.

CHANEL SNOW:

Chile did you bring your pet snake with you here? CALL SECURITY.

Isaiah busts out laughing.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Well he need to come for the party, and the after party, the private one in my room.

Isaiah and Chanel both laugh high fiving each other.

CHANEL SNOW:

Baby my jaw hurt just thinking about it.

Chanel coughs.

Confessional Cam

CHANEL SNOW:

Honey, when that man took his shorts off, my whole mind went break because all I could think about was sausages and cakes.

Chanel pauses.

CHANEL SNOW:

If you get my drift.

Chanel winks at the camera as the scene cuts back to Chanel and Isaiah, the two asks each model a question, just trying to get a vibe of their personality, after a few minutes Chanel finally picks the 4 guys she wants at her party.

CHANEL SNOW:

Ok I’m going with 1, 3, 8 and Mr. Anaconda, ha! Thank you everyone else who took time to come out and you all will be invited to the party anyway as guests. Now please head over to that booth and fill out that paperwork to my winners and when your finish we’ll discuss more details of the party.

The models make their way over to the booth where folders are located, the scene cuts back to Chanel and Isaiah.

CHANEL SNOW:

It’s some fine men in here chile, and that one on the other end was licking his lips and staring you up and down.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Ha I saw, I mean all of them were cute but you know I’m scared of the whole dating thing.

CHANEL SNOW:

Dating period is hard but dating here in Atlanta is going to be an huge issue, the only thing I can tell you is be careful.

Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE;

She was right, I mean I had only been here a few months and the guys I’ve come across have all been douchebags. But Riley, he seem different that’s why I was so interested in him.

The scene cuts back to Isaiah and Chanel.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

I actually went on a blind date the other day with this guy named Riley, He was cool and we had a good time I guess, we’ve texted each other a few times over the past couple of days but it hasn’t been anything serious and we haven’t set another date so.

CHANEL SNOW:

Wait, T. Riley?

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Yes! You know him?

Isaiah takes a sip of his drink.

CHANEL SNOW:

Not like that, but we have a few mutual friends and they told me he was dating a guy named Jaser.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Wait what?

CHANEL SNOW:

I mean I don’t know if it's true or not because like I said dating here in Atlanta is the worst, people are always involved in other people's business and sometimes it can be messy and really you can’t believe rumors until you actually hear it from the person so if anything I would say ask him.

Chanel pauses and takes a sip of her drink.

CHANEL SNOW:

But baby let me tell you this, be careful because these queens in the A are messy boo.

Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Part of me cared but the other part didn’t, we had no ties and we weren’t exclusive but if it was true and he was hanging out with me, then that’s messed up. And I don’t have time to be playing sideboy or fighting no dudes of a man who can’t be faithful.

Isaiah shakes his head.

ISAIAH WOLFE;

Oh well.

The scene begins at the outside of the gym. Hadrian stretching his arms before it cuts to confessionals.

Confessional Cam

HADRIAN ALI

“Ever since this show, she hasn’t been as outspoken as she normally is. I’ll say that either she was puttin up a huge front with Derrick last week, or something clicked at that date we had, because, mane! She pulled a complete 180 on me days later. Plus, Jas asked if she wanted to be my plus 1 at this club event tomorrow night. Of course, I was okay with that. That’s I had intended on asking at the dinner date, but the way she asked. It was all nonchalant and sh-*beep*, makes me wonder why she went out of her way to ask that way in the first place.

But until I figure out what’s really goin on with her, I have to train some clients this morning. If ya’ll thought Jasmine was nuts, you got another thing coming with this piece of work I’m about to train today. *chuckles*

The scene cuts from confessionals to the gym entrance. Amber, and a darker toned woman, in enter in athletic attire and gym bags and purses on their shoulders. They speak to each other before catching their eyes on Hadi, giggling. The other woman makes her presence known to him.

Woman: Haaaadi!

Hadi turns his attention to the girls, flashing...a stern expression.

Hadrian Ali: You’re late, Morgan.

Morgan and Amber look at each other with puzzled expressions as they walk towards him.

Morgan Davis: What? What time is it?

As Morgan puts her sports bag down to search for her cellular phone through her brown Michael Koors purse. Once she finally finds it, she looks at the time. At that time, Hadi strikes his bright whites. Morgan looks back at Hadi with a glare.

Morgan Davis: Boy, don’t play with me!

HADRIAN ALI (confessional)

Morgan Davis. I’ve been training her more than a year now after her “hiatus” in wrestling, and I’ve been happy to motivate her and push her into going back. Just watching her progress is worthwhile. And of course, those outfits she been wearin…..*looks away*

Cuts back to gym.

Hadrian Ali: *laughs and goes up to hug Morgan* What’s up wit you, Mo?

Morgan Davis: I’m good, Hadi! Oh, let me introduce you to someone. This is my girl, Amber Torres! Amber, this is my trainer, Hadrian! He’s the one that had my body right for the La Reinas tournament.

Hadrian Ali: Ah, the Amber Torres. Nice to finally meet you, Amber.

Amber smiles as she and Hadrian shake hands.

Amber Torres: Pleasure to meet you. You had her looking bomb as ever so I decided to bring my happy ass along. Hope you don't mind.

Hadrian Ali: Of course I don’t. The more lives I can change, the better.

Confessional Cam

Amber Torres: I honestly tagged along to get the scoop on this guy Morgan has been raving about. Hadi this, hadi that. You think the girl was smitten. And just by looking at him I can tell why.

Amber laughs

Amber Torres: The man is fine. I mean F-I-N-E in that order. I think I'm in pretty good shape. I chase a five year old around but I'm open to see if he can really put in work.

The camera switches back over to Hadi and the girls performing some stretches. Amber playfully jabs Morgan speaking in her ear.

Amber Torres: Girl you ain't say he was this fine. Sheesh. How do you get in any work with that hunk of man around?

Morgan Davis: Girl, what you mean? He may be a tall mug of coffee with cream, but I got my own dark Haitian coffee at home.

The camera switches to Hadi doing his own stretches. Morgan watching him for a moment, before looking back at Amber.

Morgan Davis: But, Hadi can tempt you though. Straight up. I think he got a girl though. He got a young one. I think maybe two years younger than him. Hell, I don’t know the math. He doesn’t say much about her.

Amber Torres: oh, really? Hmm..

Hadrian Ali: Alright you two. Time for our workout. We're gonna be working on our overall strength today.

A montage of Amber and Morgan can be seen as they work out using various machines, and bars.

The montage ends with both Amber and Morgan sweating profusely.

Hadrian Ali: Good job, ladies.

Morgan walks over to her sports bag to get her towel, while Amber goes up to Hadi.

Amber Torres: Damn, for my first day, I expected you to at least take it easy on me.

Hadrian Ali: Well, I treat everyone based on their skill sets. With how talented you are, I didn't want to give you some little cardio work. Just the whole nine.

By that time, Jasmine walks into the gym. Her eyes dart straight at Amber touching her man. She walks up to the group.

Jasmine: umm…..wassup?

Hadi and the girls look at Jasmine. Hadrian, noticing Jasmine's glancing, responds in a questionable tone.

Hadrian Ali: Hey, wassup, Jas? Hey, Jasmine, this is Morgan and Amber.

Jasmine: I don't care who they are. I just wanna know why her grubby paws are on my man.

Hadi looks at her confused, while Amber is quick to bite.

Amber Torres: Excuse me, honey?

Jasmine: Excuse me? Your paws are on my man!

Amber Torres: I don't even want your man! I got a husband at home and a child to worry about.

Confessional Cam

Amber Torres: Like I understand the hostility. I get it. But this man don't even claim yo ass. Like sis you riding this hard over a nigga that don't even acknowledge you? Had you not came in guns blazing this coulda went differently but now im gonna have some with you.

Amber smiles and laughs.

The scene cuts back as Morgan walks in between the two.

Morgan Davis: Hold on. We don't want any trouble. I've been one of his clients for a while. We just came to work out. That's it.

Hadi interjects.

Hadrian Ali: Exactly, baby. They are my workout clients.

While Hadi tries to calm Jasmine down, Amber turns to Morgan, whispering.

Amber Torres: Can you believe her?! The nerve I haven't done anything to the girl.

Morgan Davis: It's nothing, Amber. Just let it go.

The scene then cuts to Jasmine and Hadi and their conversation.

Hadrian Ali: Just calm down. We can talk about this later, but I got some work to do right now. I'll call you when I'm done okay?

By that time, Amber’s microphone could be heard by the viewers….and Jasmine.

Amber Torres: She needs to worry about her man not even mentioning her ass. I see why with those shoes she got on.

Jasmine swerves past Hadi at that time.

Jasmine: What was that hoe?

Amber smiles

Amber Torres: I didn't stutter. You steady trying to pop off on someone who didn't even know of your existence meanwhile he's standing over there Scott's free. Let's make that clear.

Amber moves up closer to Jasmine

Amber Torres: And girl let's let it be known if I wanted your man you would know. And he would be mine.

As the words leave Ambers mouth Jasmine reaches for her just as Amber returns the favor. Both girls now have each other by the hair as security along with Hadrian and Morgan try to separate the pair from one another. Hadrian taking Jasmine outside of the gym.

Confessional Cam

Amber Torres:This girl really just put her hands on me. Like you gotta be a special insecure type of bitch to throw hands over a nigga. Esp one that don't claim your ratchet ass. You lose boo boo. And I'm just laughing at your sorry ass.

Cuts to the gymnasium parking lot with Jasmine rushing to her car, and Hadrian following behind her.

Hadrian Ali: Jas! What the hell, mane?!

Jasmine heads to her car, opening the door to enter, but Hadrian halts her from closing the door.

Hadrian Ali: Jasmine, what's going on with you?! Why you out acting up at my job like that?!

Jasmine: Hadi! Get your hands off the door!

Hadrian Ali: No! We need to talk about this!

Jasmine: Hadi! Just leave me alone, alright?!

Hadi sighs.

Hadrian Ali: Alright, we are gonna talk about this tonight. Love you, alright?

Jasmine doesn't respond, and instead she glares at him, signaling to back away from the door for her to close it, but Hadi closes it instead. She starts up the car before darting out of the parking lot. Hadrian watching her as he takes another sigh.

The scene shifts to outdoor shopping district Atlantic Station. A few buildings are shown along with shoppers walking around, then changes to Jaser Cruz doing a confessional.

Confession cam

Jaser Cruz:I've been seriously trying to find a location as a base of operations for the company me and Riley are trying to get off the ground. Although it is nice to have enough space where I live to run my side and Riley has his own in home studio, it would be better to have a place where both ran together. My cinematography and productions. A one stop shop, come record and get your videos or movies straightened out.

Aiden Jones: So this is the second location. Of course below us you know we have the beautiful hub Atlantic Station. You're just outside of downtown a five min drive or you can catch the Marta into town. This location has four rooms.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz: Aiden is a "friend" of mine. I use the word friend loosely obviously. He's on the rise here in Atlanta as a realtor and I figured why not help out a "friend". Plus if he can give me a discount on a place I might be able to deal with his shady hating ass.

Jaser Cruz: So I'm definitely into this place more than the first l. It's closer with a better monthly rent. I'm just hoping that the neighbors won't mind the noise.

Aiden Jones: That should be fine. The place was rented out to another artist before you guys. Speaking of guys, where's your partner?

Confessional Cam

Riley was supposed to come along for the ride and check out the place but his flaky ass backed out of it the last minute. Typical Riley but it's fine.

Jaser Cruz: Something came up. Probably someone came up knowing his ass. But don't sweat it.

Aiden Jones : No you misunderstand me. Not that little boy. I meant Mr Cabrera.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz: Should've known this messy "friend" of mine would go there.

Jaser Cruz: Well I mean he is a busy man running one of the biggest pr firms in Atlanta. We don't always have to be around each other 24/7.

Jaser let's out a laugh and rolls his eyes

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz: In truth it had. Even a couple weeks since we spoke last. And honestly I was fine with it. He has my number, he knows where I live. I can't always be the one to extend the branch out. At this point he's nothing more than a distraction to what I'm trying to do for myself.

Aiden Jones: Well that's cute for you. Is Papi gonna pull out that big wallet of his and cover this for you as well?

Jaser rolls his eyes

Jaser Cruz:: Well I mean that's the only way you're getting paid for your services so.. We could always go elsewhere.

Aiden Jones:: Oh boy stop being so dramatic, you know I'm playing around with you. Let's go put these figures together and go from there.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz:I couldn't imagine being so wrapped up in what other people are doing in their relationships. It's hard enough out there trying to find someone when you got friends like this just waiting for you to slip up. It's crazy. Everyone is out there for themselves nowadays, you slick gotta believe

The scene cuts to the next scene.

Confessional Cam

JALEN DALLAS:

I swear to God I have a shopping problem, like a really bad addiction. My family and friends tried to have an intervention with me.

Producer:

Wait, what?

JALEN DALLAS:

I’m serious, I came home one day from a sale at Nordstroms, I had like 6 bags in my hand and when I walked it, my mother, father, brother and my cousin were all sitting in the living room waiting for me.

Jalen receives a text message on his phone, he looks down at it.

JALEN DALLAS:

Oh my god, speaking of Nordstrom they just sent me a notification for a 20% off sale going on right now.

Jalen looks back up at the camera.

JALEN DALLAS:

Anyway, I invited Trinity to meet me Nordstroms so we can shop, I needed an outfit for Chanel’s party and plus I enjoyed meeting Trinity and kind of wanted to catch up with her and see what she was doing.

The scene opens up with Jalen standing inside of the Nordstrom store, looking at some of the skinny jeans, he pulls the pair from the rack and places it against his body.

JALEN DALLAS:

Oh these are hot.

Jalen looks up and notices Trinity walking towards him.

JALEN DALLAS:

Hey Girl!

Trinity smiles, reaching out to hug Jalen.

Confessional Cam

TRINITY MONROE:

I got a text a few days ago from Jalen. I don't know too much about him, but he seemed to be quite cute when I met him. Plus I never turn down an opportunity to do a little shopping. So I'm meeting him I guess to kinda see what he's really about. If we're gonna cross paths more often, I might as well see what's tea with him.

She chuckles as the scene fades back to trinity and Jalen who are shown trying on different looks and chatting.

TRINITY MONROE:

”So what is going on darling. What are we shopping for?

JALEN DALLAS:

Well I was invited to this party and since I’m here in Atlanta I told myself everything needed to be new, so new a wardrobe wouldn’t hurt.

Jalen smiles.

JALEN DALLAS:

I don’t know if you know Chanel, uh I think her last name is Snow, she is the one who is throwing the party, I ran into her the other day, she was with one of her friends Uhhh..I think his name was Reno, or Zeno something like that and that's when she told me about it and invited me.

Trinity pauses looking confused. The scene fades to a confessional cam.

Confessional Cam

Trinity is shown with a puzzled look on her face as the sound of crickets plays.

TRINITY MONROE:

”Zeno? Chile the scene is small but I know it's not that small. Let me find out.

The scene fades back to trinity and Jalen.

TRINITY MONROE:

” Oh yea,I've heard of Chanel. I've seen her quite a few times around the city. What did this Zeno person look like?

JALEN DALLAS:

I mean he was tall, light skin, pretty eyes, he some tattoos and his body was everything. If I didn’t think that was her man by the way they were acting girl I would have tried to talk to him and slide his number in my phone.

Jalen snaps his fingers.

JALEN DALLAS:

I’m just saying the man was fine, but you guys are friends aren’t you? I mean you did get invited to the party right?

The scene fades into a confessional cam.

Confessional cam

TRINITY MONROE:

“Hmmm interesting. Just so happens that Trade was telling me about some party. But he said he couldn't take me because it was strictly business. And I've seen is Chanel girl quite a few times. We aren't besties but I would think if she was throwing a party,she would invite me.”

She pauses, shaking her head.

TRINITY MONROE:

“Something smells fishy. Real fishy. And I don't think I'm gonna like it”

She rolls her eyes as the scene fades back to Jalen and Trinity.

TRINITY MONROE:

“I think I may have heard about this little party. Maybe my invite got lost in the mail or something.

She chuckles.

JALEN DALLAS:

She said I can bring a plus one and I really don’t want to go alone, so if you don’t have any plans then maybe we can go together.

Confessional Cam

JALEN DALLAS:

I don’t know what I said that might of hit a nerve, but the whole vibe in the room changed after I mentioned that man’s name, now I don’t know if Trinity knows who the guy is or if they have something going on but she is keeping her mouth shut honey.

Jalen laughs.

JALEN DALLAS:

But hey I’m going for the network and the drink, if some shit goes down then just make sure I’m not touched, and let me sit back and watch the shit show fall apart.

Jalen smirks at the camera and the scene cuts back to Trinity and Jalen.

JALEN DALLAS:

[/color] [/div]

And rolling up with a bad bitch like you would only make the party better.

Jalen smiles.

TRINITY MONROE:

You know what! I would love to go! And sense we're here, I might as well see if I can find a nasty Ole garment to wear too!

She chuckles as the scene fades to a Confessional cam.

confessional cam

It's pretty much known in Atlanta who I'm dating. So I don't know if Jalen is being messy or if something is really going down that I need to be made aware of. I sure am gonna go to this little party. And we're gonna see what is exactly is up.

The scene fades and cuts to the next scene.

The scene opens to Riley behind the mixing board, bopping his head as the camera now shows Da Baddest Bitch, Trina, in the booth laying down a verse.

TRINA:

I set the bar and them bitches only settin’ TRENDS!

Confessional Cam

RILEY:

So, I kinda pick and choose my projects and who I wanna work with, but when Trina herself approached me to produce her part for a Missy the-gatdamn-legend Elliott remix I jumped on that sh(beep) in a hot second! I'm only picky because I love to work with people that I know will bring out the best in me and in return bring out the best in them. And who wouldn't want a chance to say they worked with some legends?? They made me promise not to tell anyone about this though, not even my bestie. So I know he's gonna be mad.

He chuckles a lil as it cuts back to show Trina out of the booth as her and Riley bop and have to lean in each other's ear to talk and compare notes while they listen to the loud playback. Ry feels his phone vibrating and excuses himself somewhere quiet to take a real quick call.

RILEY:

Cuzzo!!

RAVEN:

RyRy!!! Hey boo.

Confessional Cam

RILEY:

I haven't talked to my cousin since I've been busy filming and working, but she's the main one I have to thank for this. With her being in entertainment for like over ten years, in a ring and behind a mic, she saw some kind of potential in me and got me out of a bad spot when I was young and put me on one of her projects. Which is where a little bit of offers started to come from where I got to work with people I admired growing up and new artists. And she's the reason I started going by my middle name. Hahaha.

It cuts back to show Riley sitting Indian style on a couch with his phone below his chin and a smile on his face.

RAVEN:

I'm checking to see how… Wait… am I on speaker?

RILEY:

…….yeeeeah. We're recording now.

RAVEN:

Alright, I'm hanging up.

RILEY:

No no no! Quit playing.

Riley laughs knowing she’s not gonna hang up knowing how much she didn't want to be filmed or recorded.

RAVEN:

You know I hate you right? Anyway, since Jam/Lewis Jr. is too busy to call I figured I would and check up on you.

RILEY:

I'm fine. Just working and staying busy. There's this party tonight where the whole cast is getting together and I'm kinda iffy on going really.

RAVEN:

Why's that?

RILEY:

You know how I am with new people. Adding in all the catty sh(beep) that can go on with a show like this? Maaaaaaan.

RAVEN:

Look, I understand completely but did you not join that show to network and actually meet people? And it's not like you'll be alone, right?

RILEY:

True. Munchkin will be there.

Both a cutesy nickname and a fun knock on how much taller he was than Jaser.

RAVEN:

Exactly. And cut the “new people” bull. As much people you have in and out of that studio. Oh, and weren't you just getting cozy with that Isaiah dude? That's right, nigga, I seen’t it.

Riley tries to hide a smile from the camera before he responds

RILEY:

Wait… I mean... that's different.

RAVEN:

How?

RILEY:

It just is, so shut up. Haha. He's cool people to hang with though.

RAVEN:

Seems like better company than Khaleel. Yeah, I saw him too.

Confessional Cam

RILEY:

I guess it goes without saying that Rae isn't really a fan of my… damn, I don't even know I can actually call him my “ex”. Anyway, she don't like him for how he did me a couple years ago. Which, I've kinda gotten over to be honest… I think.

It cuts back to the phone call

RAVEN:

Taino, I don't get it. All this progress and moving on only to backslide? And do I even need to take a wild guess on how he even found you in Atlanta ALL the way from Houston?

Riley sighs With a solemn look on his face

RILEY:

You only call me by my first name when you're mad at me.

RAVEN:

I'm not mad. I'm just… ... Look, you're grown. I can't make you do anything. All I can say is I don't want him near you, but for whatever reason you still obliged him, just don't let ol dude play you again. Okay?

RILEY:

I won't. I promise. The sex is good if that's any consolation.

Riley laughs.

RAVEN:

Ew. Bye, boy. By the way, Amber and I took a bet on which on if you or Jaser would be the first to sleep with a cast member and I'm betting against you.

RILEY:

HUH? She has faith in me but not my own blood?

RAVEN:

Love you but I got to go with the odds. Still love ya. Smooches!

Raven quickly hangs up as Riley just laughs. Even though it ended on a light note, his cousin’s disappointed tone was still sick in his head. He got up and went back and the scene cuts.

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

Today wasn’t a good day, my sister and her boyfriend got into an altercation and now she is moving into my place. Don’t get me wrong I love the fact that my sister was coming to stay with me, but the point of me being on my own and here in Atlanta was to focus on myself and not deal with any other bullshit.

Legend shakes his head.

LEGEND DIOR:

But that is my sister though so I guess I have to deal with it.

The scene opens up inside of Legend’s apartment, his sister Lashae is shown rolling in her last bag on some wheels, she walks over to the couch and plops down beside her brother.

LASHAE ARZA:

I am so tired.

LEGEND DIOR:

I mean moving all that shit, I would be too.

LASHAE ARZA:

It would have been nice if my brother would have helped me.

LEGEND DIOR:

Chile I didn’t aks you to move, you needed to move, plus I worked all day.

LASHAE ARZA:

I bet standing around taking pictures was hard work, excuse me.

LEGEND DIOR:

Oh the shade sista! I would have helped but forreal I didn’t know the move would be so fast, but I’m just happy you're away from that situation and him. How long has he been doing this?

LASHAE ARZA:

A few months now, I always believed that he would change and things would get better but it only got worse.

LEGEND DIOR:

I’m sorry Shae.

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

It really hurt me to hear what my sister was going through, I know there's a lot of women out here who are being abused on a daily basis but don’t report it or sometimes die at the hands of someone else. Our family sort of knew of the abuse but never really acted on it and that’s why I feel so bad now.

Legend starts to tear up.

LEGEND DIOR:

I felt like I failed her as a brother for a long time because I knew what was going on in her life and I didn’t do much to help her. I’m hoping with her opening up about the abuse it may help someone else you know go and get help and try to put an end to it.

The scene cuts back to Legend and his sister.

LASHAE ARZA:

For the longest time I held a grudge against you, well maybe not a grudge but I was angry. Eventually I got over it because I stayed with him so I really couldn’t blame anyone but myself, I just wish I had more help and more guidance and maybe I would have been able to leave sooner.

LEGEND DIOR:

What’s the plan with baby Max?

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

Baby Max is my nephew, he’s only 8 months old and he’s the sweetest gift God could have ever blessed my family with.

The scene cuts back to Legend and Lashae.

LASHAE ARZA:

Mom said she would watch Max while I kind of got myself together, but you’ll see him soon.

LEGEND DIOR:

I’m glad you got him away from that too, don’t get me wrong I like Gio but that dude has issues, he needs a therapist or anger management.

LASHAE ARZA:

It was just a lot happening in our lives Legend and to be honest you haven’t been around these past few months, I mean yes you’ve sent us money and helped with Max but physically being there you haven’t been. I had to deal with a lot of stuff on my own and when I saw that things weren’t going to change I had to walk away.

Legend notices his sister getting upset, he scoots closer and hugs her.

LEGEND DIOR:

I’m here now.

LASHAE ARZA:

If something ever happened to my baby I would be upset, I would be devastated so I had to walk away.

LEGEND DIOR:

I get it maybe later down the line things will get better and that doesn’t mean you two would have to be in a relationship again but you know be cordial and co-parent.

LASHAE ARZA:

We’ll see what happens but tell me first, what’s been goi

ng on with you though? How is everything here?

Lashae wipes the tears from her eyes, trying to regain her composure. Legend jumps up from the couch and heads toward the mini-bar he has set up in the apartment.

LEGEND DIOR:

Everything is fine, work is fine, my social life is fine, but my sex life is DEAD, I mean flatlined girl.

Lashae laughs.

LASHAE ARZA:

You’re silly, no boys have caught your interest here?

LEGEND DIOR:

Girl not really, but I’m not looking to date anyone right now, I’m just trying to have fun. I’ve met a few people and went on a couple dates but I mean it's harmless fun!

LASHAE ARZA:

Well I just hope you're taking your time, we don’t want another Boom situation.

LEGEND DIOR:

Ah, why did you have to say that man’s name?

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

Boom was a dude I was dating on and off through high school and after, he introduced me to the lifestyle of being gay, I mean I knew I was gay before him but he actually introduced me to the world of sex, money, drugs and just life in general.

Legend pauses.

LEGEND DIOR:

But everything wasn’t all flowers and candy, we have a very violent relationship, and he almost made me lose everything, meaning my job and my family. I get emotional when it comes to Boom because we’ve been through alot, we have history but I feel as though he is one of the reasons why I just don’t take the relationship game serious anymore.

The scene cuts back to Legend and his sister.

LEGEND DIOR:

He actually reached out to me a few days ago.

LASHAE ARZA:

And?

LEGEND DIOR:

I mean it was really nothing, it was cordial conversation but don’t worry it’s nothing serious.

LASHAE ARZA:

Well look I just don’t want you putting yourself in a situation like that again or something similar, I worry about you bro, you’ve made some bad choices in life and I just want to see you do better.

LEGEND DIOR:

I know sis, everyone tells me everyday how I was the mess up but I’m not about that life anymore and I just need you to trust me.

LASHAE ARZA:

Okay! Well don’t get angry, I’m just concerned that’s all.

LEGEND DIOR:

Well I’m telling you not to be concerned, I’m fine.

Legend sighs.

LEGEND DIOR:

I’m going to the pizza shop, I need to eat now.

LASHAE ARZA:

Oh gosh Legend don’t be dramatic.

Legend ignore his sister, he grabs his keys and heads from the front door as the scene fades.

After a brief commercial break advertising the upcoming season of Vixens Diaries, the scene opens up with a panned shot of a condo. Jaser is then seen opting up a door and letting a guest in. The guest gives Jaser a kiss on the cheek before putting a bag from Varsity grill down on the counter. He flashes a smile at Jaser as he tries not to smile back but eventually gives in.

Fernando Cabrera: That's my boy, did you miss me?

Jaser Cruz:: Why would I miss you nigga?

Jaser laughs

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz:So Fernando finally shows up again. It's been weeks since we last talked. We argued and I kicked him out. Haven't seen him since.

Jaser sighs

Jaser Cruz:I have missed him but I know I shouldn't. He has this hold on me. I can't shake it.

The scene shifts back as the guys are sitting down eating their food. Jaser notices Fernando is wearing something.

Jaser Cruz: Ah, I see you're wearing your ring again. I was wondering if you'd crawl back her or not.

Fernando Cabrera: Watch your mouth, that's my wife, the mother of my children. Your lucky I'm in a good mood, even your disrespectful punk ass can't change that.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz:Yeah that's right, Fernando is married. I didn't know the first three years we were together. But we had always had a open relationship. I'd do my thing, he'd do his. And every so often we'd fight, break up and he'd go back to her.

Jaser pauses

Jaser Cruz:But he always would come back to me, so who's really winning? And who's recalling losing. Of course I feel like sh*t for my involvement but I don't want anything from the man. Haven't for quite a while now. We stopped having sex a year ago and I've been perfectly peachy.

Jaser Cruz: So I guess she talked you out of divorcing her again. Does she know you're here? You know this whole sister wives thing you got going on is getting old. You know that woman is crazy, and if she ever came here and showed her ass I'd have to show her ass the door by way of my foot.

Jaser takes a sip of his drink as Fernando looks on angrily.

Fernando Cabrera: I told you don't bring her up again. It's not your place to question me. Especially not while your ass is laid up in my condo doing nothing. entiendes? Don't forget who put this roof over your pretty little head. Don't forget you got you out the gutter and put clothes on your back and feed you.

Jaser Cruz: Si papi chulo. How could I forget when you throw that shit back in my face every which way. Don't forget who was 16 when you met them. Don't forget who you put your ha..

Jaser stops in his tracks quickly trying to change the subject as his voice begins to shake and crack.

Jaser Cruz:Take a joke for once. Stop acting like you got a d*ck up your ass sh*t. You act like my stepdad, like chillax foo.

Jaser rolls his eyes and picks up his phone.

Fernando Cabrera: Oh there goes that smart mouth of yours. One of these days little boy I swear. You're gonna catch me in a mood.

Fernando stops and put his food back down

Fernando Cabrera:And who the hell are you talking to? It's rude I'm right here, focus on me.

Jaser puts his phone down and looks back up at Fernando.

Jaser Cruz: My sister, anymore questions your highness? You don't even pay my bills anymore, I do on my own with the money I make guess what. On my own.

Fernando Cabrera: Smart ass. Through my contacts. From my business partners and their clients. Don't act so obtuse. If it weren't for me you..

Jaser cuts Fernando off

Jaser Cruz: You what? Remember yes you helped get me there but who put in the work to actually prove I deserved to be there? Me, not you. Everything I got is because of the hard work I put in. And stop acting like your clients are the only ones I have. I have more now than you ever brought me. Have a seat.

Fernando fake leaps up at Jaser. In response Jaser throws his food at Fernando striking him in the torso.

Jaser Cruz: Fuck off. See you do this on purpose. I hate your ass.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz: We've had our ups and we for damn sure have had our downs. But I love him. And I know he loves me too. At times I'm over it. Who wouldn't be. Then other times he's all I want. But I know for my safety I need to get out now while I still can. After I get this business up and running I'm leaving him for good. I just gotta get in a more stable situation. For myself before I lose it.

Jaser Cruz: I'm tired I've been out trying to find a place for the business for me as Taino, I had a shoot at 5 this morning. And now I gotta deal with your ass starting shit. Are we done here or nah?

Fernando Cabrera:: Yeah sure mr Jeter. There's another suit you've ruined. Don't worry, I'm using your card to pay for the dry cleaning.

Jaser Cruz: That's your fault asshole. Stop trying me. I'm not weak like I use to be. I'll knock your ass out again. Are you spending the night here or what? Cause I need to sleep.

Fernando Cabrera: Can't tonight, just wanted to stop by and speak.

Jaser rolls his eyes and gets up and heads towards his room.

Jaser Cruz: Well you know where the door is and how to use it. Very well might I add. Good night. And as always I wish you the very best of the very worse.

Jaser closes the door behind himself as Fernando looks on annoyed. He grabs his keys and slams the door on his way out.

Confessional Cam

Jaser Cruz: I got invited to a party by one of my clients last minute. I wasn't going to go but after what just happened, I need a break from shit. Go get drunk and shake my ass. I don't really know the people there but it's whatever.

The scene reopens backstage of the “I am fashion” fashion show event. The cameras pan around the room showing models running around, swiftly preparing for the next show. Some models are seated at the makeup counter getting touched up. The camera then zooms in to Trinity Monroe, who is shown touching up one of the models. She grabs a small portion of the models hair. With her other free hands she reaches for the curling irons on the counter.

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “I just need to put a little more heat on this part and your hair will be set mama.” [/div]

The scene fades into a confessional cam

So, I'm at the I Am Fashion, extravaganza! This show features some of the hottest designers Atlanta has to offer, and also they preview who to look out for in the future. So of course they called your girl to bless these women with some beat faces! And laid hair! Honey I am in my element! I'm feeling quite fabulous.

The scene returns to Trinity who is now shown touching up the models makeup. A light skinned tattooed man with dreads is shown walking toward Trinity with a duffel bag over his shoulder. When he reaches her he taps her on her shoulder. She sits the curling iron on the counter and greets him with a kiss on the cheek.

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “Hey boo! Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for coming on such short notice!” [/div]

The scene fades to a confessional cam.

DALLAS REED:

“What's good y'all. It's ya boy Dallas Reed. But if you know what's popping in Atlanta,you might know me as Playboy Dal.”

He lifts his shirt,revealing his abs. He grins while grinding his body seductively.

DALLAS REED:

“Yeah that's right! I'm sort of a big deal here. Started out dancing for tips for real, but lately I've been working on my modeling shut. Been the eye candy in a few music videos. But I been trying to focus on getting on the runway taking my career to the next level. I've known trinity for years. And we're real tight.”

He pauses

DALLAS REED:

“Real tight!”

He smirks

DALLAS REED:

“So when she called me and a model dropped out suddenly and she needed me I jumped on it. Gotta start somewhere if I'm tryna make it in this industry.”

The scene fades back to Trinity and Dallas

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “Oh my gosh! Thank u so much for coming! They had a model drop last minute and I told them you would be perfect! [/div]

Dallas chuckles, licking his lips.

Dallas:

[/b] “I am at your service boo! You already know. I appreciate you looking out, you know thinking of me first for this. [/div]

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “I know what you're trying to do baby. You know we aren't too different. I told you, we all come up. Okerr! [/div]

She snaps, chuckling as the scene fades to a confessional cam.

TRINITY MONROE:

“Dallas and I go way way back. Before any of this was even this. And I know hard it is to shed one image and completely rebrand yourself. He had me back then. And he's always been loyal, so if I could help him in any way, you better believe I have him right back.”

The scene fades into the main room. People are shown filling the seats of the auditorium around the runway. The camera quickly pans over Zeno and Chanel seated at the front row in front of the runway. The scene then fast forwards to the start of the show. Models are shown walking up and down the runway, posing for all of the cameras surrounding the stage. The scene then fades to the top of the runway. Dallas Reed is shown posed at the top of the runway, dressed in finely tailored khaki pants, and a denim vest decked out by one of the designers. His tight abs show through the vest. He smirks as he begins to confidently walk down the catwalk. As he is walking, he notices Zeno seated in the crowd. He catches a glimpse of Chanel leaning over and whispering in his ear. She chuckles as the scene fades into a confessional cam.

DALLAS REED:

Was that…?

He pauses, chuckling to himself.

DALLAS REED:

Nah. That couldn't have been who I thought it was.

The scene fades back to the runway Zeno is shown standing up walking to the back of the backstage area. The scene fades back to the confessional cam.

DALLAS REED:

“I guess it was. Woah man who was dude kicking it with while trinity is right in the back. He real bold man.”

The scene fades back to the backstage area where Zeno has bumped into Trinity.

ZENO: “What is he doing here?”

Trinity rolls her eyes,crossing her arms.

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “What are you doing here is the question? [/div]

ZENO: “I'm working. I told you I would be here. But I didn't expect to run into you and Dallas. What the hell is going on?

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] Look, they needed a makeup artist, I took the job and Dallas is here because somebody dropped out last minute. Calm down. [/div]

Dallas is shown walking up to the two.

Dallas:

[/b] “Did I interrupt?” [/div]

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] No you didn't! Zeno is just being Mr. paranoid because you were here. [/div]

ZENO: I just thought-

Dallas:

[/b] You just thought what Bae? [/div]

The scene fades into a confessional cam.

Confessional Cam

DALLAS REED:

“Did I mention I knew both of them very well?”

He chuckles

DALLAS REED:

“I guess I should reintroduce myself. I'm Dallas and I'm the Lil secret boyfriend of Trinity and Zeno. I don't know why they wanna keep our relationship so secret, but they get to parade around like a happy couple. I could be a real dick and mess all that up and tell her about Ole boy out in the audience all smooching with whoever that chick was but imma keep my mouth shut for now. Trinity don't need to go through that right now.

He shakes his head as the scene fades back to the three

ZENO: “Look, I'm gonna get out of here. I have a Lil gig to get ready for.

TRINITY MONROE:

[/b] “OK babe. We'll see you at home. Zeno leans in and both Dallas and trinity kiss him on his cheek. The scene fades to black [/div]

Zeno leans in and both Dallas and trinity kiss him on his cheek, before the scene then transitions from day to night views of Downtown Atlanta. The camera skims the city with various views of luminous traffic and social buildings, before finally ending with a view of Hadrian Ali driving his vehicle to the party event with Jasmine in the passenger seat.

Confessional Cam

HADRIAN ALI

Jasmine has been feeling some time of way lately. She was fine when we had our date, and then days went by and she started acting childish as f[-*beep*, especially that whole thang at the gym. I’m gonna have to talk to her about that sh-*beep*.

Cuts back to alternating views of Hadrian and Jasmine in the vehicle.

[/i] [/div]

Hadrian Ali: Aight now, Jas. You’ve been quiet this whole time. What’s goin on wit you?

Jasmine is still silent.

Hadrian Ali: Come on now. You gotta say sumthin.

Still silent. Hadi then sighs.

Hadrian Ali: Aight….

Awkward silence ensues. Jasmine finally lets out a quick inhale from her mouth before making her statement.

Jasmine: I just don’t want to be here anymore.

Hadrian Ali: Why? Is it the “lack of wrestling opportunities”?

Jasmine: It’s more than that. It’s more than even that little chihuahua at the gym earlier. It’s the environment. Just seems too much for me. Too many people out here fishing for drama and fights all the time. I’ve heard and seen a lot of s*beep* here before, but once you start witnessing it after more than a year of living here, you start saying that enough is enough.

Hadrian Ali: Drama, is everywhere, Jas. Why you sweatin it if it ain’t got anything to do with you?

Jasmine: But this situation was different. Drama came my way and I wasn’t even doing anything. You wanna know what I heard from a coworker of mine yesterday?!

Hadrian Ali: What?

Jasmine: This bitch had the audacity to talk behind my back, and say that I was

Hadrian Ali:.....come on now. I know you ain’t sitting here thinking about moving after hearing some s*beep* like that. Don’t let these girls get to you.

Jasmine: And then little Yo Quiero Taco Bell at the gym had me in my feelings and I was ready to bust her in her jaw! F-*beep* this-

Hadrian Ali: Jas! Girl! Chill the f-*beep* out!

Jasmine: Don’t you te-

She takes a deep breath before she turns back to the window in silence.

Hadrian Ali: I hate to tell you this, but grow up. I know you want to move. I know that, but why force me out of the clientele that we worked so hard to build? Yeah, we!

Confessional Cam

HADRIAN ALI

A lot of the clientele that I’m working with came from the both of us grindin. She helped promote me as much as I did. I know it’s selfish to say, because I know that it’s hindering her and her dreams, but I can’t sacrifice my own hard work off just yet. I’m still in development. I’m still thriving, mane! And of course the fact that, her wrestling ain’t even there yet.

Cuts back to car.

Hadrian Ali: Not only that, but what exactly do you have in your wrestling career? You ain’t even got the basics down, and you are already reaching for the stars. You ain’t using your current circumstances wisely. Forreal tho. That’s why I kept encouraging you to find a wrestling school here in Atlanta. You can be productive, but at least be realistic, Jas. For once.

Jasmine scoffs at him.

Hadrian Ali: And as far as these gossipy people, fu-*beep* em. They ain’t got no reason to hate on you, but to be jealous of what you have already accomplished, and what you plan on accomplishing. Plus, you sexy as fu-*beep*.

That compliment causes Jasmine to look at him. Her tense eyes beginning to simmer.

Hadrian Ali: Don’t let no ni-*beep* or no girl have you in your feelings over some dumb sh-*beep*. It ain’t their damn business. I keep telling you that it’s us against the world. You just gotta keep winning. Period.

Jasmine lets out a sigh. This time, much calmer.

Jasmine: You absolutely right. I can’t be sitting here acting like a straight up bitch when I’ve gone through so much to get to this point.

Hadrian Ali: I’m sayin, bae.

Jasmine: And to be honest, I’ve felt extremely horrible about that squabble at the gym. I need to apologize to the supervisor when I’m there again.

Hadrian Ali: I mean, I get a rise out of you being outspoken and wildin out sometimes, but you can’t be doing that at work. That’s messing with money, and I know you don’t want a broke ni-*beep*.

Jasmine smiles at him.

Jasmine: Boy, bye! That ain’t why I’m wit you!

Hadrian Ali: What is it? *smiles at Jasmine*

Jasmine: *laughs* That right there! You are goofy as hell sometimes!

The couple shares one last laugh before the scene cuts.

Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I’m getting ready to go to Chanel’s house for this party she’s throwing tonight, she never really told me what the party was for but it didn’t matter I was just ready to get out and have some fun. I asked Riley to meet at my house so we could ride together, I wanted to ask him about some stuff I heard and I felt it would probably be better to get it out the way now then to wait at Chanel’s party, that would be right.

The scene opens up at Isaiah’s home, Isaiah is shown staring in the mirror out his outfit, checking it out and making sure he looked cute.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

These jeans fitting nice, ha!

Isaiah turns and walks towards the door after hearing someone knock, he looks through the window and sees Riley standing at the front door, feeling nervous Isaiah walks over to the door and opens it letting Riley in.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

Hey.

Isaiah closes the door behind him and the two share a hug.

RILEY:

Alright, Blue Jeans.

Riley playfully poked Isaiah’s upper thigh, while referencing the song “Blue Jeans”, admiring how he looks in them.

RILEY:

You want to drive or you want me to? Fair warning though, I don't share the cord, so my car my music.

Ry jokingly stuck his tongue out at Isaiah before smiling. Underneath that smile he was dead serious though.

Isaiah stands there a second with a blank expression, he then lets off a smile.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I'll drive just in case I need to make an exit, but before we go I wanted to talk to you about something.

RILEY:

...make an exit?

Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE:

Part of me felt stupid for even bringing this shit up, I mean it's not like he was my boyfriend but hell he got side pieces on the side then I need to know now because I will never play anyone's fool.

The scene cuts back to Isaiah and Riley.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I was hanging out with with Chanel the other day and I had brought up you know how we had met and all that and I told her that we may hang out more and she thought that was great but then she told me that word in the streets you're supposedly dating some guy named Jaser. I mean I don't care but I just wanted to make sure because I know we never discussed dating but if it were to lead to that I wouldn't want to run into any issues.

Riley squinted his eyes before rolling them up, the scene cutting away.

Confessional Cam

RILEY:

See, this is why part of me likes to stay in my own box and stick with the people I already know. Dealing with some “word in the streets”, gossip sh(beep). And out of nowhere too? Uuugh!

It cuts back to Riley leaning up against the wall with his arms crossed.

RILEY:

One: Jaser is my boy. We're just friends. Chanel would know that if she KNEW either of us and wasn't going by word on whatever street she picked that up from. Two: IF we were dating, why would she take it upon herself to put our business out there? It ain't got nothing to do with her! Three: again, IF we were, what does that have to do with us hanging out?

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I mean I guess she was concerned about my feelings, I don't think she did it to be shady or to cause any issues she just said she thought y'all was dating from hearing in the streets.

Isaiah shakes his head.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I'm sorry for even bringing it up but I guess I did it because I just wanted to know what I was getting myself into.

Confessional Cam

ISAIAH WOLFE:

I could understand why he's frustrated but he needed to understand why I needed to know to I mean yea we not together but it's like dude I am no one side piece and I'm not about to let anyone play me.

Isaiah pauses.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

But it is what it is, he says they're friends so I'll just have to believe that.

The scene cuts back to Riley and Isaiah.

ISAIAH WOLFE:

But I'm sorry for even bringing it up, it was brought to my attention so I decided to bring it to yours but I guess we can get ready to go if you ready.

RILEY:

Man… look. I didn't mean to…

Confessional Cam

RILEY:

I can be a little abrasive sometimes but I don't even know who Chanel is or who she would've heard that from. So that sh(beep) just got to me and I overreacted a little bit and now I look like an asshole.

The scene cuts back to them.

RILEY:

I get that you asked because you wanted to look out for your feelings and I can see your friend trying to look out too. I jumped off a lil too strong. My bad, okay? Can we just go, please?

Riley grabs Isaiah’s hand as the two walk out the door, the scene fading to the next.

Confessional Cam

CHANEL SNOW:

I am so excited for tonight’s party, everyone thinks this is just like a regular house party but honey this is the party of all parties. Tonight my guest will enjoy live entertainment, a DJ, good food, good drinks and hopefully some good DICK after.

Chanel laughs flipping her hair to the side.

CHANEL SNOW:

I also have a surprise lined up too, secretly I’ve been working on a hair line, which will produce weave, hair accessories and of course haircare products. No one knows that I’ve been doing this and next week my products will be available to the world, so this is also kind of a celebration. I’ve invited so many people, my friend Brandon Young flew in all the way from New York to support, I got Isaiah Wolfe stopping by and a few other people I’ve met so I know tonight will be lit.

Chanel pauses.

CHANEL SNOW:

And no shade baby, all the important people will be here tonight so I hope nothing goes wrong, I do not feel like spending the night in Fulton County Jail.

Chanel smirks and the scene opens up inside of Chanel’s Home, the house is decked from top to bottom with various decorations, all male models she chose were standing in position waiting for guests to arrive. Chanel is shown standing at the top of the staircase wearing a long black dress, her hair in a ponytail and some red bottom heels on. She makes her way down the stairwell where she bumps into Brandon rushing from the kitchen.

Confessional Cam

BRANDON YOUNG:

Hey you silly hoes.

Brandon laughs.

BRANDON YOUNG:

It feels so good to be in the ATL tonight, My homegirl Chanel asked me to help her with her party and also attend so I flew in last night and have been helping her set up since. I don’t know what to expect tonight because I really don’t know any of the people coming here so I hope I don’t have to slap a bitch tonight because y’all know I will.

Brandon smirks.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I just came here to have fun and to support my friend, that’s it.

The scene cuts back to Chanel and Brandon, the two are still kind of running around setting things up, Chanel walks with Brandon towards the back of the house where she has samples of her products set up.

BRANDON YOUNG:

So this is the big secret you’ve been holding back for everyone?

CHANEL SNOW:

I had too, I didn’t want any distractions.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I’m proud of you though, I kind of fell back from the world when I started my underwear line and I did well, my stuff still selling in stores and online but I feel like the hair market is such an expensive but profitable business.

CHANEL SNOW:

That’s where the coin is baby, so I just have a few samples, my weave, some of the lotions and hair care products and I’ll let people try it out and tell me what they think about it.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I hope it’s all positive energy tonight.

CHANEL SNOW:

I mean everyone that’s coming I have some sort of relationship or connection with so I don’t think we should have any issues. I have a group of friends that are coming that I want you to meet though.

Brandon rolls his eyes.

BRANDON YOUNG:

You know how I am with people.

Confessional Cam

BRANDON YOUNG:

Look I didn’t come here to meet anyone, I just came here for the drinks and to support my friend, chile this is starting to look messy.

The scene cuts back to Chanel and Brandon.

CHANEL SNOW:

Trust me Brandon you have nothing to worry about.

A few minutes go by and the guest start arriving, a few big names like Kandi Burruss and Cynthia Bailey from the Real Housewives of Atlanta pop in, some family members and a few other of Chanel’s friends arrive.

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

I was invited to this little get together slash house party that was set up by Chanel, now I really didn’t know that people still threw house parties, I guess since I don’t attend them then I wouldn’t know, I’m use to club parties or huge events at like banquet halls or like lounges, but I’m down for the free drinks and food.

The scene cuts back to Chanel’s house, Legend makes his way through the front door is greeted by one of the male models.

LEGEND DIOR:

Oh honey, you should have worn some longer boxers, I see Mr. PeekABoo trying to peek his way out.

Legend looks the model up and down and continues to stare as his large manhood slipping through his boxers, Chanel notices Legend at the door and rushes over to him bringing him inside.

CHANEL SNOW:

Love the view huh?

The two laugh.

CHANEL SNOW:

There’s a lot of people here, some in the back and of course in the living room area so make yourself comfortable, I do want you to meet one of my good friends.

Chanel grabs Legend’s hand and pulls him through the crowded room towards the kitchen, in the kitchen Brandon is showing dipping his hand in the cookie jar filled with oreo and chocolate chip cookies. Brandon looks up and notices the two walking towards him.

LEGEND DIOR:

Girl!

Legend rolls his eyes.

LEGEND DIOR:

Now if I would have known she was inviting trash to this party, I probably wouldn’t have attended. I know of Brandon Young and what I know about him is that he is one MESSY BITCH. My loyalty is always to my best friend Levi, so I don’t think it would be bestfriend code for me to sit and be phony with this queen.

The scene cuts back to Legend, Chanel, and Brandon all standing in the kitchen.

CHANEL SNOW:

Legend I want to introduce you to my friend Brand

Legend interrupts.

LEGEND DIOR:

I know Brandon, we can skip the introduction.

CHANEL SNOW:

Ooop! Did I miss something here?

BRANDON YOUNG:

I guess so because I’m a little confused to.

LEGEND DIOR:

He doesn’t know me, but I know him.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Ah, so are we on some stalker shit?

LEGEND DIOR:

Chile your man don’t even stalk you, I don’t mess with people who mess with my bestfriend so there’s really no need for us to have an introduction or a conversation until he apologies to my bestfriend.

BRANDON YOUNG:

And girl who is your bestfriend?

LEGEND DIOR:

LEVI.

Brandon rolls his eyes.

Confessional Cam

BRANDON YOUNG:

You know what in the back of my head I said this QUEEN looked familiar, now I know where I’ve seen this crusty bitch, he hangs out with Levi Bryant.

Brandon shakes his eyes.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Lord please help this fool and remove him from my space before I ruin Chanel’s party and mop the floor with his ass.

The scene cuts back to the kitchen.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Oh girl I won’t be apologizing to anyone, especially that bop.

CHANEL SNOW:

Whoa! Wait a minute! I did not know you guys had an issue or even knew each other but I don’t want any drama at this party, this is serious to me.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I don’t even know why he jumping at me like this, my issue is with his best friend not him and to be honest I don’t even care about that petty shit.

LEGEND DIOR:

Well out of respect of Chanel I won’t pop you in your mouth.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Ha, let me make my exit because this fool is talking wreckless right now and Chanel I respect you girl but I’m about to go back to my hotel.

CHANEL SNOW:

No you can’t leave Brandon, please stay.

LEGEND DIOR:

Let him leave, it’ll feel less trashy here.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Trashy?

Brandon turns and looks at Chanel.

BRANDON YOUNG:

Look I’m about to step outside and smoke a cigarette because I feel like if I stand here another minute and listen to anything else this bitch has to say it’ll be a problem a real one.

LEGEND DIOR:

Like I said trashy, like cigarettes? Ewwww.

BRANDON YOUNG:

What you mean ewww? I rather smoke cigarettes then a cocaine queen, bitch get out here because I’ve heard about you, your messy, a messy ass faggot.

CHANEL SNOW:

WHOA! WHOA! WAIT A MINUTE.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I need to get out of here, like now.

Brandon brushes pass Chanel and Legend making his way out the back door towards the yard, he pulls a cigarette out of his pocket and starts smoking, the scene fades back inside with Chanel and Legend.

Confessional Cam

CHANEL SNOW:

I am like shocked, I don't know what the hell is going on, but what I did know was I didn’t want anyone or anything ruining my party, this was important to me. I had to address Legend though because the way he came at Brandon was so disrespectful.

The scene cuts back to Chanel and Legend.

CHANEL SNOW:

I don’t know what your issue is with Brandon but you need to handle that outside away from this house, that’s not cool Legend.

LEGEND DIOR:

Look I apologize because I shouldn’t have acted that way, but running into him and knowing what he said and did to my best friend just pissed me the hell off.

CHANEL SNOW:

I accept your apology but I have to ask you to leave.

Confessional Cam

LEGEND DIOR:

Bitch what?

Legend shakes his head.

LEGEND DIOR:

I can’t believe this hoe just asked me to leave.

The scene fades back to Chanel and Legend.

CHANEL SNOW:

I’m sorry but I just don’t trust that nothing will go down tonight and Brandon is my friend.

LEGEND DIOR:

You know what, this is your house and I will respect you and your home but just know this isn’t right Chanel.

Legend places his drink on the counter and make his way back out the door, Chanel turns and walks outside meeting up with Brandon who is on his second cigarette.

CHANEL SNOW:

Honey I am sorry that happened, I did not know you two had an issue and neither one of you knew that the other person was going to be here. But just know I asked him to leave and he is no longer here.

BRANDON YOUNG:

I cannot believe that dude tried me like that, we have never had a conversation but I guess because of the situation with Levi he felt the need to come at me like that.

CHANEL SNOW:

I’m sure he was only trying to defend his friend but this was the wrong place and at the wrong time, I don’t play that honey especially if it's something that could jeopardize my work, he had to go.

Confessional Cam

BRANDON YOUNG:

I respect the fact that Chanel asked Legend to leave, and that was nice of her to apologize for what happened because Lord know I wanted to go across his mouth one good time with my fists.

Brandon shakes his head.

BRANDON YOUNG:

But I’m classy now.

Brandon reaches down and takes a sip of a drink out of a mug and smirks at the camera.

The scene cuts back to Chanel and Brandon.

CHANEL SNOW:

I just wanted to come out and check on you boo, just to make sure you were okay, but I need to get back inside and attend to my guests and hopefully network so I can get this coin.

Chanel leans over and kisses Brandon on the cheek, leaving him outside again, Chanel walks inside and starts mingling with some of the people at the party.
