Prologue

Asia sighs. She didn't want to go to sleep. She wasn't tired at all and she didn't want to force herself to sleep. Instead she sat up from her pillow and grabbed the phone on the end of her bed. She flopped back down on her bed only to be greeted by the vibration under her pillow. She sighed and grabbed her cell phone. She looked at the caller ID and saw that it was a person she did not want to talk to. Instead of answering the phone, she pressed the volume button and the vibration stopped just when the call ended. She placed it on the side of her head and dialed the chat line number. It was the best one in the state of New York and she rarely found other females from the Massachusetts area but she enjoyed the crazy people on there.

"Record your message after the beep--"

Asia pressed a random button to skip the instructions. "What's good? It be that one and only, Young Entrepreneur. I'm on this shit looking for a fem to talk to. I be that aggressive, the flyest one on here. I'm just looking for a friendship, nothin' more and nothin' less. If you feeling that, hit that two or that three, you hatin', a bitch, fake, a hoe, a dude, or a phone-busta hit that four or better yet that five. Holla," she whispered to avoid waking her sister and nephew.

"To replay...Your message is now in the air. Record your name after the beep--"

"Yezzirr, Young Entrepreneur."

Within about ten minutes, Asia had already met three females. One of them left before Asia could get her name, the other two just talked to her out of boredom.

"Well, I be about 5'2", I'm Puerto Rican and Brazilian, I have long black hair down to my lower back, I have hazel eyes, I'm kinda on the thick side, I weigh around 165, I got a nice sized chest and ass. So, if you wanna talk, hit that three. Don't be shy. You sound good as hell," the 18-year-old female replied to Asia's question she had asked before.

Though Asia was talking to another female, she pressed three anyways and decided that chatting with her wouldn't be so bad or so she thought.

"Yo, you're matched with..."

"...That sexy mami."

"Four-hundred forty-nine."

Pause. "Say hello."

Asia heard her voice. "Hello?"

"What's good?" Asia asked playing with her fingers.

"Nothin'. What's good with you?" She said back obviously smiling.

They were talking for a brief moment before she got bored of Asia's laid back voice. She thought that Asia wasn't open-minded and excited enough like she put on. The young female disconnected with her quick. Asia laughed to herself.

"You sounded like a kid anyways. Dumb bitch," Asia said to no one.

"You have a message from..."

"...'Kira." Pause. "That's cool. But I don't know what to talk about. What do you wanna talk about? Let me know. You sound mad cool."

Since the last female was bitchy, Asia thought that this female would be the same way. She casually pressed two on her phone and waited for the beep.

"I don't know what to talk about either. So, if you wanna hit that three and get at me like that because this stupid messaging shit is pissin' me off. Maybe we can talk better like that."

Once she sent the message, she yawned and pulled out her cell phone to check the time. It was only about eleven. She figured if this girl didn't want to talk to her, she would just hang up and go to sleep.

"Yo, connection request by..."

"...'Kira."

"To connect, press one." Beep. "Hold on while we set it up." Silence. "Yo, you're matched with..."

"...'Kira."

"Four-hundred thirty-one."

Pause. "Say hello."

"Hello," they said at the same time. She giggled and Asia thought it was the most beautiful thing she has ever heard but she knew better then to hook up with this chick so soon.

"What's good with you?" She asked Asia.

"Nothin'. Just bored as hell. What you up to?" Asia asked. She already knew that this conversation wasn't going anywhere. "What about you?"

The female had a smile on her face. The other girl on the phone sounded like someone she could talk to for hours.

--

Within about four hours Asia learned that her name was Shakira. She was African-American, Indian, and West Indian. She lived in New Jersey. She was only an inch shorter then Asia. From the discription she gave, Asia knew for a fact that she was very pretty. Shakira was very friendly. She didn't mind at all the distance they had between them.

Shakira had big dreams and she didn't mind when Asia asked her to share them with her. She did with ease. She told Asia about how she was a senior in high school and when she graduates she wanted to go to college and study to be a care taker for newborn babies fresh out the womb. She also wanted a big house. When Asia asked about marriage and children and come to find out, she happily wanted to get married and have children.

"So, you told me a lot about you," Asia said after listening to Shakira tell about things she hated about her past girlfriends. Asia made a mental note to never do such things to her. She continued, "Now tell me what you wanna know about me."

Shakira sighed. She didn't even know where to start. "I don't know. Just tell me everything about you."

Asia thought to herself. There was so much that she could tell her but she just didn't know exactly where to start. She finally answered, "Well, I'm a senior too. I plan to go to college in Minnesota for like six or so years. I love music. That's what I'll be study and then I'll study music business online as well as some other courses. I already own a record label and I want it to become international."

"That's cool! I'd love to hear some of your stuff. What about marriage and children?"

"Um..." Asia honestly didn't know what to say to her question. "I do wanna get married. And children, as long as I don't have them, I'm good. My wife can have all of the children she wants."

Shakira laughed. "Well you always stay by her, or will you just leave her?"

"I would never did that. That's just really rude. I will love the mother of my children with all of my heart. She will be my everything."

"Oh."

Asia cleared her throat. She didn't know what to talk about anymore. She decided it was time to play a few games. Something that her previous girlfriends had told her she was very good at.

Asia broke the silence. "You wanna play the 'what if' game?"

Shakira was confused. "What's that?"

"That's when I ask a question like, what if someone told you they had feelings for you? Then you would answer. Most people I ask, they don't usually ask me back but if you want to, I wouldn't mind it." Asia paused. "Do you wanna play?"

"Sure. Why not?"

Asia got a little more comfortable on her bed by lying down. "What if your girlfriend was caught with another female? What would you do?"

"Um...I would probably ask who she was. If I trust her, I wouldn't doubt what she said. Unless she was like kissing her or something. If they were just chillin' and she told me that the female was like her family or something, I would believe her."

"Okay. What if..." Asia thought to herself. She wanted to try and see if Shakira would give different answers if it involved the both of them. "What if me and you were together and I told you that I loved you?"

Asia could tell that Shakira was shocked but very happy. "I would believe you."

"Would you say it back?" Asia asked quickly.

"If I really and sincerely loved you, why would I hide that from you? I would say that I loved you back."

This game had continued for about an hour before Asia decided that she couldn't hide her feelings anymore. She was bonding with Shakira quicker then she had with any other girl and she was honestly scared. Since they were still playing the game, she decided to get a little more personal.

Through Shakira's laughing, she managed to speak. "What if I said I wanted to be with you and I didn't care that we had just met but it feels like I'm connecting with you and I feel we would be perfect together?" She asked this all in one breath and she hoped that she wasn't being too blunt about asking Shakira to be her girlfriend.

"I would say that we just met but I would probably just say yes. Only because I feel the same way."

There was silence.

"How do you feel about me?" Asia asked quietly.

"I think you are amazing. You're different from everyone else. I feel like I've known you for the longest amount of time. We connect and I could honestly see myself with you."

"I want you to be my girl," Asia said to her, scared of the outcome.

Shakira smiled. "Of course I'll be your girl."

They continued to talk and express the way they felt about each other.

"August the 2nd of 2008 at 4:02 AM, you made my morning," Asia said with a huge smile on her face. "Shakira."

"Asia."

"Shakira."

She laughed at the game Asia was playing. She thought it was too cute. "Asia."

"Shakira loves."

She paused and bit her lip. She couldn't deny that she truly felt that way. "Asia."

"Kissie Bear," Asia said using the new name she gave to her new girlfriend.

"Yes, Huggie Bear?" Shakira said using a different nickname back.

"I think I'm falling in love with you," Asia said bluntly. As soon as she said it she regretted it. It was way too soon to feel so strongly about someone. "I know it's too early but there's just something about you. You're perfect."

Shakira couldn't believe her ears. But she knew how she felt. "I'm falling for you too."

Author's Note: Too cute right? Yeah, I know that it is. But as you can see, I started a new story, even though I know you guys are still waiting for me to update some of my other ones. Sorry about that. This one is actually based on true events, not everything is true. Me and Shakira actually met this way, crazy I know, but it's true. We did talk about most of this stuff, actually almost all of it. Anyways, I will be doing something for this story that I usually don't do with my other ones. I will be naming all ofthe chapters. Why? I don't know. I feel like it will give you guys a sneak peak of what is expected without even reading the chapter yet. It'll be great. I promise that I will finish one of my stories one of these days. Hopefully before I go off to college, I will have all of these stories done. I really want this story to reach about 100 chapters. Why? Because, it's like our life in a few years and that's how long this will be. So expect some changes and stuff. Obviously, in the later chapters, none of that stuff has happened yet, it might, but it didn't happen at that time. I won't be waiting like massive years until I update this story just to give you guys true events. I will base what me and Shakira talk about and use that to make this story great. Anyways, make sure you read more and then review. Thanks a million.
