Neighbhors Know My Name: Trey Songz Story

Vanessa POV

Trey was quiet on the ride there, I even gave him a shot to call shot gun. We got in the party and said hi to everyone. Trey was sitting in the corner drinking a 7 up. I sat next to, “I know the parties boring, a bunch of 30 and 40 year olds but come on Trey what’s up?” I asked sitting next to him. “If I tell you, you’ll laugh.” he noted. “Since when do I laugh at you?” he gave me an are you serious look. “Okay scratch that, since when have I ever laughed at something serious?”he thought a moment and shook his head, “Never.” “Okay so tell me what’s up with my best friend?” “Rebecca broke up with me.” And even though I hated them together, I didn’t want her to break up with him. “She said she needed space.” he continued. “Space? If she needs fucking space then she shouldjoin fucking nasa, what a bitch you want me to fuck that punk ass bitch up?” I said mad at the thought of anyone hurting my best friend. He laughed, “No its okay chill Nessa, and before you go there it’s not your fault.” “You didn’t need her anyway Trey, you got me and your mom the only two girls you’ll ever need!” I laughed. He chukled, “There’s that smile, how bout we go out there and dance and show these old folks how to do it?” I asked. He laughed, “Okay but don’t touch my booty.” he warned. “shut up, you wish I would!” I replied as we started dancing.
Trey POV

I was having fun dancing with Vanessa, she was mad crazy. She made me forget all about Ruby, I mean Rebecca, “Looks ya’ll had fun.” my mom noted as we walked to the car. Vanessa laughed, ”it was okay ya'll old folks are crazy.” Vanessa replied getting in the backseat with me. “Oh? Just a few hours ago this morning I think it was you saying, “oh mom your not old your young girl you look fly.” my mom mimicked her. “Whatever, I wanted new shoes.” Vanessa laughed. “Yeah yeah.” my mom smiled. “So what are you two gonna do this summer?” my mom asked. I shrugged, “I want to get my singing carrer more started.” I told my mom. She didn’t want me to turn out like my dad andlet music take over my life. I could blow and my mom knew it she just wouldn’t let me go to LA and get it
started. “Trey you know how I feel.” she noted. “April no disrespect but you know Trey got talent and how long you gonna keep holding him back? He loves music but he loves you more.” Vanessa said putting her hand on my mom’s shoulder. “Yeah I guess you have a point. So………. Although I’m not 100 percent with it, Trey this summer you can go out to LA for a week or so and talk to that agent guy, as long, as Vanessa goes with you.” I smiled happy Vanessa talked her into it. “Of course yeah, thank you so much mom.” “mhm, what about you Vanessa your plans?” “Uhm I’m not sure yet. I think I want to get a job and maybe go visit my sister for a little bit, other than that I’m hanging with you and Forrest all summer.” “Aren’t I lucky?” my mom joked. “Shut up!.” “I’m kidding hunny, that sounds good, where you thinking about working?” “Hooters?”Vanessa asked. “Oh I don’t think so, no child of mine will work at such a-” “I was joking April HA HA a joke!" “Thank goodness.” we pulled up at my grandma’s house where Forrest was staying for a few days. We picked him up and headed home
