Doc's Little Girl - 1

| April 1993 - New York |

Inside a police station, 8 year old Janine Hines was sitting in a corner. Like a dunce. Her foster mother was literally dropping her off after another incident at home, "I can't. I Just can't. We've tried everything and she responds with her little fists," the woman explained to a social worker and police officer.

"What happened to being so sure ma'am? Weren't you told about her past?!" The social worker asked.

"I was. I've rehabilitated 5 but ..." She shook her head, "she rejects ... Everything. I won't take her back with the other kids."

"Just give me the paperwork when you finish with it."

The social worker handed the lady paper and pen and the foster mother ended up writing 3 pages worth of examples and dates of issues with little Janine, who hadn't said a word since being brought in. When she was finished, she handed it back to them, "if you need more information, you know how to find me," she left.

The officer shook his head and left the social worker to go talk to the sheriff,  "excuse me sir.."

Sheriff Ames looked from his desk and looked to his officer, "what, Jones?"

"There's this kid in the Ms Anell's office that the foster parent dropped off ... Returning her like a dress at Macy's."

"Are you shittin me?" He rolled his eyes and followed Jones out  to meet the little girl, "so what did they say was the reasoning?"

"I'll give you some highlights from what she wrote down ... Fighting," he held up a finger with each example, "fighting. Fighting. Anger." He put his hand down, "this woman is basically calling this tiny 8 year old the She Hulk. Said she's always angry, fighting the other kids and tryng to start fires."

Doc shook his head and went to the office. "This cute little thing?" He squatted down, "what's your name?"

"I'm not cute," she responded with her best angry face.

"You didn't answer my question.." he continued smiling.

 She looked at him, "Ja ... Nine."

"I'm Doc, its so nice to meet you.." he held his hand out to her.

She shook his hand, "you're gonna forget you met me soon."

"How could i?" He looked to the social worker, "i may have a place for her."

"Where? She's been through 5 homes in 2 years."

"With me... my wife has been wanting a little girl for some time now."

"I don't know, sheriff ...?"

"What is there not to know about?" He challenged her.

"Nothing," she just nodded, and went to get a load of papers.

"Thank you" Doc rolled his eyes and then looked to Janine,  "do you want to color, Janine?"

"No. Coloring is for losers."

"Spell loser."

"L-o-s-e-r. Loser!" She said in her best mock spelling bee voice.

"Foster mom said she's very smart ... and only 8 ... Book and street," Jones handed Sheriff Ames some paperwork.

"This kid's got bite..." he smiled and signed the papers, "you hungry Janine?"

"I want a cheese steak."

"Cheese steak it is.."

"Deal," she got out of the chair and headed to the door, "let's go see my temporary home."

Doc smiled, "im gone for the night," He told the officer.

| 13 Years Later |

At 21 years old, Janine was sitting in a chair across from Doc's desk. They were at his home office and she had her arms folded, much like she did most of her life when there was something going on she wanted to change or just flat out hated. Her back was straight, her legs were crossed and her hair in a messy birds nest of a bun, "I'm bored. You just need to let me out of here. I'm too damn old for a curfew or whatever you call this shit. I'm 21 today."

"So the fuck what, and what happens when you find trouble? You call daddy to bail you out, Janine?"

"I can't do that because I don't know who that is," she blinked one too many times and then raised an eyebrow as if wanting to laugh.

He glared at her, "get the fuck out of my office. I have to make calls."

"Okay," she jumped up and hurried out, grabbing a pair of car keys on the way.

"Janine get back here!"

She stopped abruptly, backed up, hung the keys back on the hook and sighed, "I need to get out of here!"

"30 minutes... be good"

"ICE CREAM!" She grabbed the keys and ran out.

Janine came back some hours later, very quietly. Then snuck the keys to Doc's office then snuck up to her room.

| Morning |

The next morning, Doc was downstairs waiting on her at breakfast, "that ice cream was so good last night, old man."

"The ice  cream that took you 3 hours to get? Why are you spying on my son? "

She blinked, "I'm not."

"Yes you are, Milo followed you."

"Milo is stupid, everyone knows that." Janine quipped.

Doc threw a manila envelope on the table, then took out some pictures.

Janine just looked at the photos, not saying a word. When he flipped through them all, she sighed, "I was at the ice cream shop."

He grabbed her wrist, "what the fuck are you doing stalking, Maddox?!"

"Vanilla ice cream! Hello!?" She snatched her wrist and sat down, "I was only looking."

"I understand, puberty is a bitch, but there are other ways to get a date, Janine."

"I'm long past puberty and still a virgin thanks to you." She sank down into her seat, "I want to date him."

Doc sighed, "I will bring him by once. Nothing come of it then nothing will come off it."

Smiling, "you will?"

"Yes," he nodded.

"Ooooh thank you!" She went and hugged him.

Doc didn't hug her back, just loosened her arms some. He knew Janine was a good kid and therefore had potential to be a great thing to his son. When Janine let go, Doc trashed the pictures and drank his coffee.

| 2 Days Later |

Janine combed her curly hair and put on a dress, rushing downstairs to greet him, "Oh hi ... Maddox ... I didn't know you were coming."

"Who are you?" Maddox questioned as he looked around.

"Oh. Right. Sorry. I'm Janine. Hi."

"Maddox." He responded dryly.

"Nice to meet you, Maddox ..." She smiled ... And smiled ... And smiled, then turned around and looked at Doc, cheesing still.

"Dad... this the girl who lives here?" Maddox asked of Janine. Yes, Doc and Lynn outright adopted Janine, but she was never taken home. Instead, Doc took her to his hideout house. The one he would use for 'business' purposes. There, she was raised and trained and hardly ever allowed out.

"Same one." Doc responded.

"Hmm ..." he stared her down. "Got it..." Maddox was 23 and had become less of a talker.

"Let's go sit down!" Janine suggested, then got behind Doc and gently pushed him to the couches.

"How are you?" Maddox asked.

"Me?" Janine stopped pushing and pointed at herself, then slowly sat down, "great ... Doing well ... Im awesome," she cleared her throat, "fine. How are you?"

"Well.  How old are you? "

"21 ... A few days ago. Doc let me go get ice cream. Vanilla."

"And she stalked you..." Doc told on her

Maddox shot her a look, "what the fuck for?"

"Uhmmmm," Janine slowly turned to Doc, "I was having ice cream. I told you this."

Doc shook his head, "she wants to date you, son."

"Tell her to say it," Maddox responded.

"He's right. You're both right," she smiled at Maddox and tilted her head to the side, "would you like to go out sometime?"

"Maybe ..."

"Maybe," Janine nodded and looked at Doc, satisfied.

"Yeah yeah." Doc chuckled at her.

"So, who are you? What's your story?" Maddox just looked at her with a straight face, "its like you didn't exist until this second, so ..." he waited.

"I've ... been ..." She said hesitantly, "training."

"You didn't answer my question."

"I ..." She swallowed hard. "Uhm ..." Janine looked at Doc for help. She didn't know how to answer his questions. "I have ... anger problems ...?"

"Just tell him what you feel comfortable with ..." Doc encouraged.

"Anger problems has nothing to do about your life. Unless it does. Dont be so vague." Maddox couldn't stand when people talked in pieces.

"I ... Like ... to hurt people. When he brought me here, he told Me it was okay. That he'd teach me so many ways to hurt people that I'd be happy. He was right," she started to smile. "I've been over sheltered ... obviously ... so my social skills suck but ... I like you so I've been watching you until I could figure out what to do about it. Does that answer your question?"

Maddox let out a chuckle without a hint of a smile on his face, "what made you start following me? This is my first time seeing you, so how'd you see me? My dad doesn't have a single picture of me in this house."

"Cameras." She answered quickly.

"Surveillance in the house ..." Doc nodded.

"Hmm ..." Maddox cleared his throat, "dad, ready to shoot?" Doc told him they were going to target practice. That was how he got him out the house.

"We're not doin that. I just wanted you to meet Janine. She's a good girl."

"Oh ... I get it. You're her wing man." Maddox shook his head.

Doc shrugged his shoulders, "maybe."

Janine smiled uncontrollably, "he's the sweetest person in the world. Thanks Doc."

"Pops, this ain't a face of a trained killer."

"I know, she's cute right?"

"I'm cute!" She pointed to herself. "No one ever sees me coming. Or hears me."

"Yeah ... Well show me around." He looked down to Janine.

"Okay." They started walking, "we can go to the training room first."

Maddox nodded and followed her through the house. He looked around, "so aside from being a trained killer, what else have you been doing all your life?"

"Only studying. I just got a tv on my 18th birthday. Not that I needed it since I had the internet. But still ... not much else."

"You're missing nothing. You should spend time reading a book anyway"

"I do that."

"Hmm, very good." Maddox wasn't that impressed by the girl, but on the flip she was gorgeous. He was intrigued by her style of kill, "so, what is your specialty?"

"Depends on the job. I prefer torture until death ... lots of screaming, " she got excited, "and blood." Closing her eyes, "God yes." She whispered. "Anything else ... one snap shop."

"You're fuckin twisted.." he stood in front of her, looking down, "who made you this way?"

"I was always a little ... odd ... Doc encouraged me to find what makes it work for me. That was it."

He let out his first smirk, "that's pops. I'm living proof of that as well."

They started walking again, "your dad is amazing. I learned so much from him. Fast. You have to learn fast when a person that size is kicking your ass."

"I know it. He's made me very good with my hands"

"I know ..." She grinned.

"Stalker. How would you like it if i stalked you?"

"I'm fine with that."

"Listen, ill take you out, but all that weird shit has to stay at home. If you need to read a damn book, or watch a fuckin youtube video on how to be a gotdamn lady, you do that. Got it?"

"Weird shit? YouTube has videos on how to be a lady?! Why didn't anyone tell me? Wow."

"Yeah none of that weird shit and most likely. .. ask pops if you need questions answered. We'll go tomorrow night."

"Okay. Yes."

Undercover Superstar - Chapter 9

| 2 Days Later |

"I heard..." Maddox spoke to Janine over the phone.

"About KB?" She smiled, "yea. He deserves it ... He's that good. We're also working out our Lana issue. It's becoming a non-issue where I just smile and try but Tarin hasn't come around yet."

"I heard his music, not bad, more power to ceelo."

"He's gonna go far. How are you?"

"I'm good, just tired. You?" Switching the phone to his other ear. He hunched over his desk, "just got word i got family coming in from Italy. My dad, uncles, their girlfriends, aunt, ya-ya, and a couple of cousins."

"Sounds like fun. Special occasion?"

"Not at all," he lied.

"Well thats nice," she nodded, "are they all staying with you? Need help with anything?"

"Yes, and no, i got it," he answered, there was no way he was bringing Janine around his dad and uncles just yet. His dad was a true dick and his uncle Constantine would surely try to hit on her every chance he got. As far as his other uncle, he was cool it was mainly Constantine and his father he was concerned about.

"Yes, superman has got it," she teased, "when are they coming?"

"2 weeks..."

"Can I steal you tonight?"

"steal me? I don't know about that, you might get me in trouble."

"Will a 'please' work?"

"you miss me, don't you?" He smirked.

"I'm fond of you. I like you. I enjoy your company," plus, she wasn't dating anyone, "I miss your face."

"I miss you too," he said honestly and meant it for the first time since he was 20 years old.

A slow smile spread across Janine's face that was accompanied by a feeling of longing. She sighed, "can I at least ... See you for a little while?"

"You can see me a little longer than that. Where will you be in a couple of hours?"

"I'll be home by then."

"Ok, I'll come over..."

"Will you want dinner?"

"Yea, I'll cook."

Her eyes widened, "okay. See you then."

"Alright later.." He hung up.

After the phone call ended, Janine walked out of the gym door. She'd just finished a couple of miles before she and Maddox talked. Just as she was putting her hand up to adjust her eyes to the sunshine, she saw Ricardo was walking by the building, seemingly on the phone. She glanced at him, but kept going. However, he stopped her, "Janine," he smiled and backed up, phone still up to his ear, telling the person he'd call them back.

"Hey...." She gestured toward him like she was trying to remember his name, "R..." She began hoping he'd finish.

"Ricardo. It has been months. I never heard from you after I give you my card."

"Yea, sorry about that, I misplaced it.."

"Ah ..." He went into his wallet and pulled another one out, handing it to her, "call. We can get to know each other. Someplace public if you like ... Coffee."

"Yea ... Ok," she said with flirty eyes.

He smiled, "are you free now?" Stepping closer to her.

"I ... Can't ... I've got ... A thing."

He nodded, "you are the busy type. Make time to call me."

"you got it. Well, i better go. You have a great day."

"You as well," he backed up and left.

| Later |

Janine went home, showered, changed, and made sure her place was spotless. When Maddox showed up, she was curled up on the couch in yoga capri's, a tank top and some fuzzy socks. She locked the door behind him and looked at the stuff in his hands, "hi," then leaned up on her tip toes and kissed him.

"hey," he kissed her as well, "i hope you like pasta.." He slapped her ass a little.

"I do," she followed him into the kitchen, "long day?"

"you don't even know," he sat the groceries down and began to pull or the right Pots, "what about you?"

"I have an admirer," she grinned, then hopped up onto a cabinet he wasn't using, and sat.

"I'm not surprised."

"This doesn't happen to me often so I am ..."

"Hmm, but you're gorgeous as fuck, and your ass is fat, i dont get it."

"Thank you," she chuckled, "I always seem to be in a hurry ... Maybe that keeps them from hitting on me."

"Their loss.. " as water was boiling, Maddox began to cut veggies like a pro, "can you manage to help a brotha out sweet thang?" He smirked

"Of course," she got down off the cabinet.

"Fill a mixing bowl with hot water and put the frozen meat in there."

Janine nodded and followed his instructions. Soaking in the fact that he really knew what he was doing. After he was finished cooking, Janine got out some glasses, "you want water or something else tonight?"

He actually thought about this and brought a 1930s chianti with him from his own collection, he pulled it out, "voila..."

"Oh," she looked at the bottle, "the good stuff. So prepared," she went on and set the table.

"If you want to date other guys," he started, needing to get this out, "for now it's okay, but trust me, the moment it's not okay, I'll let you know, just food for thought." He poured wine into the glasses, and then he brought plates over, "just know, everyone isn't as cool ass they seem. Just pay attention," he kissed her temple.

"Got it." She smiled a little, "I have no problem macing someone if i need to."

"good," he paced her plate in front of her, "eat up..."

Janine went on and ate the food, "wow ... Look at you. This is so good."

He smiled, "I'm Italian, you actually think i wouldn't be able to cook. Psh, i make Emeril look bad."

"I can't stand his show ... The one where he has random women sitting there commenting while he's cooking."

"Yea, i don't watch it," he sipped his wine, "do you have regrets in life, Janine?"

"No. I'm satisfied so far. Do you?"

"Hmmm yeah, going into the military, it changed me and not for good either."

"I hear that a lot," rubbing his leg under the table, "how long were you in?"

"18-22."

"Didn't want to go to college?"

"i went to college after. I have a bachlors in business. I used the military as a way to get out of Tennessee, and when i studied business i went to Columbia."

Smiling, "i love a man with brains," and continued eating. When they finished, they went to the couch. Janine sat next to Maddox with her thighs laid across his lap and one hand gently scratching the back of his head.

Maddox rubbed janine's thighs "who were you as a teenage girl, how've you changed?"

"I was pretty rough and tumble. A tomboy. I didn't get prissy till i got to new York."

"i can't see it.."

"No way you can. The only thing that gives me away is the collection of purses in the bedroom."

"i see titties and ass and that's what says otherwise. Oh, you are smart too. Very.." He held his hands in front of his chest to mock her breast, "smart." He cursed ass she slapped his chest.

"Mmhmm, We're going to have to fight one day. The guy at the gym I spar with is the same height as me," she shook her head. "That won't help me at all if I'm ever attacked."

"I'm going to get a pet. What do you suggest?" Loving their random conversations

"a pitbull..." He paused "or a monkey... Yep a monkey."

"No! I want a cat!"

"Then why ask me?"

"I thought maybe you would have a better idea."

"And a cat is better? Girl, get the fuck out. I'm getting a pet monkey now just to show you how damn cool they are."

"No. No thank you," she laughed and shook her head, "I love kitty babies. Tiny and amazing."

"well yes thank you, I'm buying it for me, not you. Those same kittens will then grow up to be evil bitches. I hate cats."

"I love them; When I was young ... I would go visit my grandparents in South East Texas. They lived on this big plot of land with tons of animals on it. Grandpa used to feed every single animal dog food. Chickens, cats, dogs, rabbits, whatever was around, they all ate dog food ... Together ... And on Sunday's, even though they live directly across the dirt road from the church, he'd get drunk, take out his Bible, and go preach to the animals in the back yard. My Grammy just let him do it," she smiled. "So ... I need a cat."

"Yea, yea ... What type of cat?"

"i want a smokey grey kitten. Teeny tiny."

"Pfft... Can't even believe you and this cat shit," he shook his head and them rubbed his hand down her hair

"It'll be awesome. I'm free all day Sunday and Monday so I'll be decking out my apartment for a cat," she paused, "I've also been planning on apartment hunting. I thinki I can afford something a tinge bigger. This little thing I'm in now is only big enough FOR a cat."

"what else you need to make room for?"

"My purses," she beamed. "I need a bigger closet. I've had to revamp my wardrobe since I quit Vibe."

"yeah, cant look a mess at the suite."

"I already know. I bought some really nice stuff ..."

"model them?"   Maddox waited.

"Just a couple," she got up and went to the bedroom. She came out 3 different times. 2 dresses and one suit. New shoes included. After she finished, she put her comfy clothes back down, then took her previous spot, "lots more ... Closet is jacked."

"where are the extra short skirts for Maddox/Janine quiettime?"

"You just KNEW that I had some," then got up and left out again. She came back out in a short black skirt and low cut red camisole, "what about this?"

"shorter..." He joked

She shook her head, "you're just gonna rip it off anyway."

"yea... You right."

"Heels or boots?" She asked and took her hair down.

"heels, " he smiled, unbuttoning a few buttons on his white work shirt.

She found the highest black platform pumps, put them on, and went back out. "Come ..." She grabbed the front of his pants, pulled him up and walked him to the bedroom.

WHAT IF - 25 YEARS LATER - 13

PART 13

| 2 Days Later |

Maddox had his mother flown in to visit with the new additions. She was in the kitchen cooking while Maddox got things for the babies together. He was just in sweats and some Nike flops, freshly shaven, “momma, you almost done? They should be here any moment and you know you can’t cook when you’re too excited.”

“I know, I know. I’m almost finished. Rushing!” She laughed, “I’m a great grandmother … Oh my goodness.” Checking everything one more time, she turned the food off and rushed to refresh herself.

He laughed, “no perfume! It’s not a date!” He said too late.

“I’m nervous and rushing. Leave me alone!”

Maddox shook his head as the door bell rang. Before the door was opened, Lucky stood patting the crying baby he was holding while jiselle fished through his backpack for a bottle, "i know you better hurry up."

"Did you even pack a bottle, smart one?" She joked and took one as the door opened. She quickly handed it over and smiled

"Aww, give him here..." Maddox kissed Jiselle and then hugged Lucky while taking Brandon from him and them the bottle from Elle, "you guys are just in time, i got a special guest here with us." He led them in.

Jiselle gasped, "is it Alexander Skarsgard?"

"Why on earth would he be here?" He shook his head, "momma, they're here."

"Oh," she blushed, "I just ..." Shaking her head

"HIIIIIIIII," Lynn coasted towards them

"Grandma!" Lucky swooped in before Jiselle, hamming it up like his father, he hugged Lynn tightly.

"Wow," Jiselle rolled her eyes, "what a kiss up."

"Look at this boy. My grandson ... And my granddaughter ... How beautiful you two are," she began to get teary eyed.

"Ma c'mon, no tears!" Maddox yelled.

"Its so nice to meet you grandma," Jiselle finally got a hug in.

"Thank you ... I'm so excited," she wiped her tears and looked at the babies with them, "these precious things. Come in, come in. Lunch is ready ..." She closed the door and walked them through with Maddox to get the meeting started.

"Please, excuse your grandmother, she's always been this emotional."

"Stay out of this!" Lynn joked and sat next to Jiselle to play with the baby she had with her. "Now tell me all about her."

| Later |

They ate and talked the entire afternoon. By the time evening rolled around, Lynn was walking around the house rocking Carmen, who was sleepy because her bedtime was approaching. Lucky was leaned back on the couch with his kid on his arm already asleep.
Maddox walked into the living room from loading the dishes up, "i have spare rooms if you want to stay. I'm sure grandma Lynn wants tip cook you breakfast anyways..."

"We hadn't planned on it ..." Lucky said

"I have rehearsal at 9." Jiselle went to give him a hug. "Next time? Or, when is grandma leaving?"

"We can come by for breakfast Monday morning."

"She's here until Tuesday night, so perfecy,"he then hugged lucky.

"We'll see you Monday. Can it be early? 7:30?" Lucky hugged him, then held up the baby to slobber on Maddox's face.

Maddox laughed, "yea that's fine, momma And i usually go for a walk at 6am anyways.." He have the twins one final hug and then lead them out the door.

| Thursday Night |

The twins did end up having breakfast with Lynn and their dad, but Tuesday was one of 3 days he was at the Madison square garden which was sold out. After the show, the twins, and Gigi met Maddox back stage. Maddox sat in a chair wiping himself with a towel, looking to his right he saw them walk in, "yo!" He smiled and stood, "gimme love."

"Nice show," jiselle went to him first, "dads got swag."

"He alright." Lucky chuckled.

Gigi walked in and stayed back. She enjoyed the concert and that would be enough for her. 'No fraternizing with Elle and Luckys dad.' She knew where her loyalties laid and they weren't with this match making her brother and sister was trying. "Traitors," she mumbled to herself, then walked around looking at stuff.

"Damn right been that way all my life. Hey Gigi, how'd you like it?" he looked over the twins.

"It was awesome. Some of my friends had tickets but not like what we had ... They're gonna be so jealous. Thank you."

"You're welcome sweetheart. I actually have a memorabilia pack for you." He grabbed the basket, "feel free to share it with your friends."

Her eyebrows went up, "shut ........ Up." He handed it to her and she thanked him, "yes! Thank you so much!"

"Just made her year," lucky out his arm around her.

"He really did but i'm not sharing," she smiled.

"The choice is yours," he laughed, "take pictures with me guys?"

Gigi clapped and went to sit directly next to him. She needed something to post on Facebook after all. The first picture was taken, then she moved out of the picture to take the pictures for him and the twins. Gigi confined herself to the corner to dig through the stuff he'd given her, giving the twins room with Maddox.

"Where you goin next?" Lucky asked

"I'm here in new york for 3 nights then 3 days off and then head to Maryland. On the third night, it'll be recorded and shown on hbo," he pulled them closer as his official photographer began to snap pictures.

"Fans are going crazy," his photographer chuckled while he took the pictures, "Maddox Ames finding his children after 25 years ..." He snapped more, then started packing up his camera

"All good talk i hope..." He smiled.

"The good, the bad and the ugly," he told him, then left out.

 "We don't read that mess," jiselle assured him

 "I do." Gigi kept on looking through her stuff

"Of course you do, what do they say?" Maddox asked actually curious.

"Of course super fans are calling my mother all kind of things because she hid your children from you until you hit the billion dollar mark." She rolled her eyes, "others are in denial because you're not old enough to be a dad and others say they're yours because they look like you and mom didn't know who's they were until they DID start to look like you. It's disgusting and pisses me off."

"Yea that's not fair. I'll release a statement."

"Cool." She nodded.

"I'm gonna drop Gigi off at home," Lucky stood up, "and I'll meet you at the restaurant for dinner." Looking at Jiselle, "staying?"

"Yes! I'll wait and ride with him." Jiselle responded.

As Gigi and Lucky left, Maddox was asked to do an interview. He knew exactly how it would go since so many pics of him and the twins were floating around, "Maddox Ames it is wonderful to  finally meet you."

"You too miss, thank you."

"And what a surprise to have your daughter with you. How does it feel? Becoming a dad at 43?"

"Honestly, it was the happiest day of my life when i found out. Also, to find that they are so much like me is awesome."

"What's next for you after this tour has ended? You have almost a new family to get to know. I'm sure that's on your short list." She got to the point, "is their mother here at the show also?"

"No she stayed home, its just my kids and i tonight."

"You have a huge fan base who is really interested in this woman. What can you tell us about her? Is she supportive of your relationship with twins after 2 and a half decades have passed?"

He smiled instantly, "she's still, to this day, one of the most amazing women i know. She allows me to be a father and stays out of the way. I wish it wasn't like that at all."

Laughing a little, "you want her to be in the way?"

"Absolutely..." He smiled, "she's beautiful. Plus the kids like her," he joked.

Jiselle chuckled as did the interviewer, "on to the show ... Any special plans for the HBO taping?"

"Now THAT, you'll just have to find out on your own." He laughed.

Undercover Superstar - Chapter 8

| 1 Week Later |

Janine had spoken to Maddox each day and had some girl time with Tarin. Still, she had yet to deal with KB. However, things were about to change. She'd found out a certain person was going to be in New York. She met with him and practically begged him to listen to KB's demo. After all ... She knows music and all he needed was a shove in the right direction. Now it was time to get KB out to meet him himself. She went to his apartment and knocked. Seconds later, Lana answered, "hi," Lana smiled.

Janine's eyes widened a little, then she grinned, "yo ... Uh ... KB here?" Janine walked in just as she'd always done.

"Yea, in his music room..." She crossed her arms over her chest smiled softly.

Janine took off to the room and let herself in, "go get dressed. We gotta go."

"What are you doing here?" He continued to write.

"I've come to pick you up. This is how I apologize. I love you. You know that. I didn't mean to piss you off but I felt how I felt. I'm sorry you got hurt. But right now ... We have 45 minutes to get to this meeting. Please go get dressed."

"what meeting?"

She smiled, "can it be a surprise? You won't be sorry. I'll go wait in the living room while you get dressed in something proper."

"You're not fucking me over are you?"

She bit back the curse word she was about to let loose, "GET DRESSED!" Then waltzed out and sat on the couch to wait.

Kb rolled his eyes and just got dressed. Lana came in the room with him, he looked at her, "hey..."

"Where are you off to? I thought you were writing?" Lana sat on his bed.

"Yea, but apparently, she has some huge meeting for me that's urgent. I don't know."

"Maybe you should ask more about it. In case she just wants take you and Tarin out for lunch. Because if that happens, you'll be upset."

"Its fine, she wouldn't do that knowing how much she pissed me off."

"She apologized, though. And," Lana sighed, "she's important to you."

"Yea, she is..." He nodded.

Shrugging, "work it out, then. I'll be here when you get back."

Janine smiled when lana came back in the living room, "Is nappy head done yet?" She looked at the clock on her phone.

Lana tilted her head, expecting an apology out of Janine, "no," she sighed, "not yet."

"Ok," Janine got up to pace around some, looked at the clock again, "KEITH, I'LL BE DOWNSTAIRS IN THE CAR!" Then huffed and looked at Lana, "have a good day." Then left.

Lana officially had zero respect for Janine. A woman who is that stubborn and can't even apologize for when she was wrong. Gross. Lana walked to Keith's room, "your friend is in the car," she paused, "i think I'm going home, text me when your done?"

"Ok," he kissed her, "i will," he grabbed his wallet and the left together.

Janine saw them come down, then quickly ended the call with Tarin and unlocked the door when Keith approached, "don't you smell sassy," she smiled.

"Thanks..." He buckled up

"So ... Got Lana back. You're a happy man. Miss me?"

"No I'm still pissed. Let's not talk about her, don't even ask. In fact, let's not talk about any relationships. You don't care to get to know someone I'm dating, I'm straight on anyone you and Tarin are dating. Especially if you want to get advice. I'm not your go to guy for that whiny girl bullshit anymore."

"So ..." She said calmly, "you're going to maintain this anger towards me? A person you've known for fucking ever ... But be kissy face with this heffa you met 14 minutes ago." Nodding, "what do you want from me? I apologized to you ... I'm nice to her ... You're picking her over me! I'm the nice one ... I've always been nice to her and will remain nice to her. But, I'M NOT KISSING HER ASS!"

"Where the FUCK do you get that I'm picking sides. Anyone can spot a fucking phony smile and wave. You're right we have known each other forever, and you should respect the fact that i really care about Lana, instead you and Tarin act like y'all are experts on relationships, when Tarin never had a man, and you're sitting here trailing behind a fucking womanizing superstar!"

"Trailing behind him?" She laughed, "please ..." Janine shook her head, "would you rather me scowl at Lana or try to be nice as i have been?"

"I'd rather talk about something else. Lets just get to where we're going."

Janine rolled her eyes but kept driving. Once they got to a studio parking lot, Janine pulled KBs demo CD from her glove compartment and they went inside. "Look at you in your aqua," Janine smiled at Cee-Lo and hugged him, "thank you for seeing us. Him." She pointed to Kb, "Keith Brownstone."

Keith's eyes widened, "wow, Ceelo, it's a pleasure," he shook his hand.

"Same here. Let's sit down and talk. Janine blew up my phone but she has a good ear so ..." They sat down and Janine handed over the cd. They put it in and played it.

Kb sat there looking around as everyone listened do his demo, he was nervous as hell. The song they listened to was called 'Carry You.' A song about a man carrying his woman through any situation in life so its easier for her to live. It was funky, young and such a lively track. When the bridge hit ceelo began to really bob his head.

Janine stood back out of the way texting, then speaking to the others in the room. Once they'd gone through 3 full tracks, ceelo stopped it and Janine told him, "that's my baby ... Be gentle but make sure the contact is generous," she winked at kb.

"Janine told me a lot about you, man," ceelo started, "made me watch performance videos of local shows you did, YouTube videos, the whole nine." He paused, "i'm convinced. You need to be on my team."

"Man, that means so much to me, I've been trying to get a chance like this for the longest. I really appreciate it," then looked to Janine, "thanks a lot."

Janine smiled at him and Cee-Lo kept on, "I'm performing in 2 weeks at The Suite and I want you to be my opener. Bring that band I saw, they're good"

"You got it, sir, absolutely..."

"I got your info from Janine. We'll talk in a few days and look at the contract," he stood up and shook his hand again, then hugged Janine.

Janine smiled, walking in silence as the two of them went back in the car. Janine pulled off, saying nothing still. Just smiling.

"i love you so much..." Was all Keith could say.

Janine turned her lip up and swooped her bangs out of her face before turning the corner. "Do we get to celebrate?"

"Yea,  i could go for a drink before my vocals are on lock down."

"Get home. Tell Lana to get dressed, I'll call Tarin, and we can go out. Good?" God, it pained her to have to include Lana, but this was his moment.

"No, it can be just you and me, I'm definitely not ready to kick it with Tarin right now."

Janine nodded, "anywhere you want to go. My treat," she smiled, "I'm proud of you."

"I dont care. You pick." He smirked as the two discussed a place to go.

Undercover Superstar - Chapter 7

| Much Later |

The driver had driven around until they were finished, and then he headed to maddox's estate in the hamptons, which wasn't too far since the driver had been going in that direction anyways. Fastening his pants, Maddox pulled a cigar from a secret compartment and rolled the window down a little, "was it as good for me as it was for you?" He joked hardly smiling.

She chuckled, "yes. If I were a smoker, I'd have one with you."

He nodded, "you impressed me, wasn't as vanilla i assumed you would be." He put the cigar out after a few more puffs

She turned her lip up at him and pulled her blazer closed, "you thought I was square."

"You seemed like such a good girl, i didn't know how nasty you could get," he popped a few mints, "I'm gonna have some fun with you."

"I am. And now I wish I had clothes ..." She chuckled.

"i got you covered."

"That ... I appreciate," she took a breath, then leaned back.

+

Not long after, they arrived at Maddox's. They were let out and went inside, Janine holding her purse and the blazer closed, "are you sure you don't want me to cook?" She said once they went inside.

"Naw, I'll just put an order in with the cook," Maddox sent a text to the kitchen and led Janine to the bathroom.

"Yes!" Janine was excited to get in the shower after the car ride over. When she was there before, she never went inside Maddox's bedroom so the multiple jets in the shower made her giggle. "This reminds me of when I got a detachable shower head at my apartment ... I really thought I was moving up in the world."

"Right." He shook his head as he peeled off his and snatched her by her collar and pecked her on her lips and then removed her clothes and then pushed her toward the shower."

They showered and jacked around, after Janine dried off, she brushed her teeth and dug through her purse and combed her hair then waited for the magical clothes Maddox had for her.

"Follow me..." He walked off, naked as shit, he didn't give a fuck about it. It was his place. They walked clear over to the other side of the estate, and he walked her to a room that look like it was for a girl, he pushed her toward the closet, have at it.

"Aren't you nice," Janine shook her head and went through the stuff, she found underwear and a nightgown.

"The sweetest in the business..." He smirked, "i like you... I've decided." He spoke randomly.

"It was only a matter of time," she rubbed his abs and walked passed him.

"That's kind of a big deal, you know that right?"

"Yes. Now come on, naked ass, let's go sit and talk. Your hang time," she pointed to his Dick, "is distracting."

"Feel free to touch it whenever u want," he gripped her ass, "so, have you ever had shooting lessons?"

"It's been years since I've touched a gun. It was a hunting rifle when I was around 10."

His smile got big, "we're going tomorrow, I'm a gun man, and I'm a damn good shot. I never miss."

"Really? I never would have thought," they sat on his bed after walking back over there, "I know a little about guns but nothing substantial."

"I'll teach you... Then we'll get you licensed."

"Cool. Now ..." She laid back and propped one leg up while the other hung off the side of the bed, "you like me," then looked at him.

"Yea... It took a whole year."

"Doesn't matter how long it took. You were on tour and getting served 10 ways from Friday."

He nodded, "i had to keep my sanity, thats the only way i was able to respect your space or i would've taken you down ages ago."

"You wouldn't have."

"I'll let you have it. Women say it until they are put into that position, so... If it makes you feel better."

"It does make me feel better because I believe it to be true. Nobody gets between my legs until I decide to let it happen. I get that you're all-confident, but so am I." She rolled over and kissed the corner of his mouth, then moved to the head of the bed and pulled the covers back.

He laughed, "mhm... Aren't you hungry? I had the chef make you a Greek salad , in case.." He robbed his hands up her thigh and back down.

"Ooo I'll take it." She got out of bed.

Just as they sat in their seats in the kitchen a couple of guards came in, "there's been a breach of security, Doc."

Janine caught the name and raised her brow. Maddox nodded and looked to Janine, "stay put, ok? I'll be right back."

"Okay ..." She looked a little funny, but ate and stayed put as they rushed out wondering why they called him Doc and what the fuck of going on.

Maddox rushed with his men, the area where some men had already been making their way toward, in the process he was handed a bullet proof vest and a gun, as they could heat distant shots clearlwy where the breach happened. Cocking his gun, getting to the door, he peeked in and motioned for the guards to get behind him. He knew exactly where to go, who the intruders were. Seconds later, he stepped from around the corner and just unloaded. It was astonishing to see him in action, as he ran out of bullets, he tucked and rolled, side swiping the last standing invader, and putting that nigga to sleep in one punch. A little winded, he motioned for one of his men to clean the mess up and another to put the guy he knocked out in an underground cell, "i knew shit was quiet for a reason. What the fuck are all of you doing. I told you what i wanted my night to look like and you mythbusters let this shit happen?! Look about to finish my fuckin steak, get this shit spotless!"

Maddox tore off his vest, and tossed yhe gun to the ground for them to pick up. He headed back to janine, "hows that salad?" He knew she couldn't hear any shooting from the kitchen so he carried on like nothing happened.

"Its great. So do i ask the obvious questions or leave it alone?"

"Leave it."

"Not even of i make an absurd pouty face?" She grinned.

"I imagine that to be really cute, but, sweetheart, no..." He paused, "but I'll answer anything else."

"Then let's talk about this gun thing. When I was younger, I had a very hard time holding a regular hand gun. Is their any way I can be upgraded to something big? The kickback makes me feel like a badass."

"We'll start small and take steps up. Can't jump into the big guns just yet."

"But I'm awesome ... Fine," she kept eating.

"Awesome and very small, lets work up to it. Do you want kids?"

"Yes. At least 2. You?"

"5." He finished chewing the bite he just took.

"I'm actually not surprised."

"Oh yeah?" He brought her chair close to him.

"Would you adopt?"

"If i couldn't have kids, but as long as I'm producing, that's not the route I'm taking."

"What if your wife can't have any more?"

"What? That would suck but I guess I'd have to."

"Just checking," she smiled, "can you cook?"

"Ok, and to answer your question I'm a boss in the kitchen."

"Is their anything you can't do?"

"Uhh, I cant sew, or drive a stick."

"I can sew enough to put a button back on a blouse ... I can drive a semi," she smiled.

"Good for you.." He smiled.

"Shut up ... Eat your food and let's get to business."

"Business?"

"The Business," she nodded and stuck her hand under the table, grabbing his junk.

He immediately smiled, chuckled even, "now you gonna just use me?"

"Of course not. I would never do such a thing!"

"Yeah yeah yeah, what's your biggest fear?"

"That I'll end up being 40 years old and unmarried with 5 cats or I'll be 40 years old and married to someone I settled for just because I didn't want to be that 40 year old cat lady. I'm too picky so being 40 and alone is a reality I face unless I settle for whatever," she paused, "I don't like being alone."

A faint smile appeared on his face. "The only thing/person I fear is God himself. Everything else is nothing. Dying young, being alone, all that crap that doesnt matter. As long as I'm alive with roof over my head, a full stomach and my guns. I'm good. If i have a lovely woman to accompany me through it all, that would be nice too."

"That would be nice too," she laughed again, "you're a mess, but you're cute."

"Cute? Janine, I'm a grown man, I'm not cute."

"What you said ... Not you. Get off your high horse, Madonna."

He busted out laughing, "i love fuckin with that woman so much." He nodded, "the simple things in life."

Maddox emptied his plate as well, "time for a nap."

"That's right ... Your catnapping," Janine left the kitchen and up to the bedroom.
