Amber Graves
"How was the trip?" Knowledge asked Amber about Atlanta as she unpacked her suitcase.
Knowledge's family was staying in an air BNB that had seven bedrooms, allowing everyone their own space.
The two decided to room together, and luckily no one had anything to say.
"It was good, Jaz showed me a lot of good things." Amber nervously smiled.
She didn't like talking to him about her future plans since she wasn't sure how he'd react.
"So Jaz is into journalism too?" Knowledge asked, unzipping his own suitcase.
Amber shook her head, "No but she's into networking."
Knowledge nodded as Amber laid her outfit out for dinner.
"You tryna match a nigga?" He smirked since he already had his outfit on, with the same Yeezy's.
"Boy bye.." she laughed as she finished putting everything away.
She grabbed a set of the towels she brought along with her hygiene back then headed to the bathroom in their room.
Once she got in there, she took a breath, she hated how she continuously lied to Knowledge about the future.
After thirty minutes, she was done in the bathroom and came out with her towel wrapped around her body.
"My mama said our reservations for seven." Knowledge said as she threw off her towel and put on a bra.
Amber glanced at her phone and saw that she had time.
"Knowledge, you like this?" Amber asked once she finished getting dressed.
Knowledge watched as she stood in the mirror and continuously picked at her clothes.
"Mhm." He mumbled as he came up behind her.
"You look good as fuck." He said, causing her to smile and blush.
He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist "No makeup?"
"No, I didn't feel like any tonight. Does it look bad?"

Knowledge shook his head "Nah, you look beautiful ma."

"You know what you getting?" Amber asked Knowledge as they looked over a menu.
He began to say something until he was cut off.
"Hi everyoneeeee," a girl identical to Knowledge smiled as she sat at the dinner table.
"Hey" and "wassup" sounded through the table.
Amber watched as she sat across from her, and felt her stomach turn.
"Hey Amber!"
Knowledge eyed the two in confusion.
"Hey LeAnne."
"Y'all know each other?" Knowledge asked.
LeAnne nodded with a smirk "Yea, I actually met her last weekend."
"Oh shit I forgot you was down in Atlanta too.. her boyfriend owns some clubs." Knowledge told Amber.
"Mhm." Amber nodded.
"How y'all meet?" He asked.
"I'm friends wit Jaz and she was out with her.. it was a quick introduction tho."
"How are you tho?" LeAnne asked.
Amber nodded "I'm good and you?"
"Same, so you and my cousin date or sum?"
By then, Knowledge wasn't really paying attention to them as he laughed with his uncle.
"Or sum.." Amber answered hoping to end the conversation.
"Hmm." LeAnne sounded before opening her mouth to say something else until the waiter came.
Dinner was tense to say the least, LeAnne kept throwing shots at Amber and Jaz that luckily only Amber caught, but she was still very uncomfortable.
Flashback to Atlanta Trip
"So when you ready lemme know and we can get you set up." Justin, LeAnne's boyfriend smiled as Amber got off the pole.
Amber nervously looked around the strip club and took a deep breath.
"And how often would I come in?" She asked.
"Well usually we have alternating days, but I want you in here every night." He told her.

LeAnne sat on his lap and gave her a big smile.
"You did good mama.. how old are you?" She asked Amber.
"I-I just turned eighteen."
Amber reached for her coat, and slid it on as she became even more uncomfortable.
Flashback over
"Baby." Knowledge called, snapping Amber out of her thoughts.
"Mhm.." she sounded as everyone else chatted amongst themselves.
"I'm tryna dip out and get a tattoo." He told her.
"A tattoo?" She laughed, not taking him serious.
He nodded as he opened up his wallet and put money down for their food.
"Come on." He said grabbing her hand.
Amber shook her head at the situation, but followed him nonetheless out of curiosity.
They walked down the street a little until they came upon a well lit tattoo shop.
"Knowledge how do you know if they're good and allat? Did you-"
He cut her off with a laugh "Just chill for me."
As they walked in, a man who looked to be in his late 20's emerged.
"Wassup cuzzo," the man said as he dapped Knowledge up.
everybody this boy family she thought as Knowledge turned to her with a smirk.
"This my girl, Amber. This my cousin Geno."
"Wassup ma." Geno politely waved.
"Hi," Amber smiled shyly.
"Ight you still doing it?" Geno asked as he set up his tattoo station.
Knowledge nodded as he lifted up his shirt sleeve.
"Wait what are you getting?" Amber asked as she sat in the seat Geno set out for her.
Geno smirked as Knowledge ignored her.

After what seemed like hours, Amber looked up to see Knowledge standing and looking at her.
"Come look." He said, holding his arm out.
She stood up and studied the tattoo in confusion.
"You just got eyes tatted on you?" She blinked in more confusion.
"Oh! That's-"
Knowledge smiled as she looked up into the mirror and saw the same eyes from her face on his arm.
"Boy, now why would you get my eyes put on you?" She laughed, looking over the tattoo again.
Knowledge loved Amber's eyes, he always told her that but she never expected something like this.
"You like it?" He asked as she continued staring at it.
"It's really good." She nodded, seeing how detailed Geno had gotten everything.
She smiled as she looked into the mirror again then back at his arm.
By this point, Geno had decided to give them privacy.
"Wow.."
