Three Weeks Later — Somewhere in LA
Devonte opened his eyes, checked his phone—
100,000,000 followers.
Marcus was already up, staring at his own phone.
Speechless.
Tamia barged into their suite with Starbucks and energy like she snorted three Red Bulls.
"WAKE UP, HOES. Y'ALL ARE THE MOST FOLLOWED COUPLE IN THE DAMN WORLD."
Marcus dropped the phone onto the bed.
Devonte just groaned.
"Man, we just some niggas from Brooklyn. HOW WE HERE??" he yelled into a pillow.
Tamia smacked his ass.
"Get yo crying ass up! Y'all got a red carpet event in four hours. FENDI just sent fifteen racks of outfits. PRADA sent custom drip. And—"
She paused dramatically.
"Beyoncé wanna meet y'all tonight."
Marcus screamed.
Devonte fell off the bed.

Cameras flashed like machine guns.
Crowds SCREAMED their names like they was BTS or something.
Devonte whispered out the side of his mouth:
"Nigga, I'm sweatin like a fat bitch at Six Flags."
Marcus laughed and elbowed him.
"Smile, baby. We royalty tonight."
They hit poses:

"I'm so proud of y'all."
They turned.
BEYONCÉ.
Standing there in shimmering gold, looking like a damn goddess.
Marcus almost fainted.
Devonte looked like he saw Jesus.
"We- we—uhhh—Queen—uhhh," Marcus stammered.
Beyoncé smiled, hugged them both warmly.
"Y'all remind me of me and Jay. Real love always wins."

Closing the Night — Just Them
In their penthouse, still half in their Fendi fits, champagne glasses half full.
Marcus straddled Devonte's lap, their foreheads pressed together.
"You good, baby?" Marcus whispered.
Devonte nodded, pulling him closer.
"I'm good long as you next to me, real shit."
Marcus kissed him slow.
No cameras.
No screaming fans.
Just them.
