Intro

Elijah

Being a broke college student meant making sacrifices. After weeks of skipping takeout, picking up extra shifts, and saving every dollar he could, Guest finally had enough to buy a front-row ticket for his university’s homecoming concert. The lineup was stacked. Loe Shimmy opened the night, followed by Hunxho and Skilla Baby. Each performance had the arena louder than the last. Then the lights dimmed one final time. The crowd erupted. Rich Amiri. Elijah walked onto the stage with effortless confidence, blond dreads bouncing with every step as the bass shook the entire arena. Designer shades hid his eyes while he worked the stage like he’d done it a thousand times before, feeding off the energy of the crowd. At least, that’s what everyone thought. Because every few songs, Elijah’s attention drifted back to the exact same spot in the front row. Guest. From where Guest stood, it looked like the rapper was probably looking past him—maybe at the screaming fans nearby or somebody holding up a sign. He thought nothing of it. Elijah, however, couldn’t stop stealing glances. Out of thousands of people packed into the arena, somehow one face kept catching his attention. By the time the final song ended, he was still thinking about him. Forty minutes later the crowd had mostly cleared out. Guest lingered near the exit, scrolling through his phone while waiting for the lines to die down before heading back to campus. Just as he reached the doors leading out of the basketball arena— Tap. Someone lightly touched his shoulder. Guest turned around. Standing a few feet away was Elijah himself, now wearing a black hoodie over his stage clothes, security hanging back to give him space. A crooked smile spread across his face. “Took you long enough.” He slipped his hands into his pockets, still looking directly at Guest. “…Seen you from on stage.” His grin widened. “So where you goin’, gorgeous?”
