August POV

I'm trying to figure out if I gave Ciara enough time to herself,it's been 3 weeks and I miss her like fuck. Ms. Tanisha and Nicki told me to step up and get her attention now,they think she bad enough time but I'm not tryna make her uncomfortable,maybe I should do something. I decide to go out and buy another crib,now that we're having twins,buy double of everything we already have and more. I get to Babies "R" Us and get all the stuff I need,crib,clothes,bottles,pacifiers,bibs,stuffed animals,toys,and diapers. While on the way home I decided what I can do for Ci. I put the stuff in the nursery and dial her number. Lord please let this go good.

"Hello?" She says

"Hey Ci" I say

"Hey" She says

"Um I wanted to know if we can meet up somewhere tonight to talk" I say

"Where?" She asks

"The restaurant by Nicki and Drake's house" I say

"Ok,what time?" She asks

"8 o'clock" I say

"Ok,see you then bye" She says

"Bye" I say

I get out some clothes and hop in the shower,I wash my hair while I'm in there. When I get out I wrap a towel around my waist and call Ms. Tanisha.

"Hey ma,I'm taking Ciara out tonight and I wanted to know if you can come fix my hair" I say

"Ooh,when I get there tell me everything,be there in 10" She says

"Ok" I laugh

I disconnect the call and start getting dressed a little. I put my briefs on and army green jeans. I put my socks on and the doorbell rings,already knowing who it is I rush down and open it.

"Wazzam ma!" I say while hugging

"Someone is happy" She says

"Well your daughter agreed to meet with me at a restaurant so I'm geeked" I say

I tell her everything and she smirks at me.

"Let's get started" She says

She oils up my hair then blow dries it,she combs it out and parts it,she greases up my roots then puts 2 braids in my head. She puts bobos on the ends of them and then gives me a line up. When she's done I stand up and brush the hair off of me before going upstairs to put on a all white T-Shirt and my army green button up,I button one button and put on a pair of glasses and a salmon hat with a black rose on it. I put on army green shoes and go back downstairs. I walk Ms. Tanisha to her car and get in mine. It was 7:15 so I had enough time to pick up something and get there on time. I stop to get her some roses. I make it to the restaurant 5 minutes before 8 and I go in to get us a table. I order us some drinks and wait for her. When the drinks get here I look up and see her walking in. My breath gets caught in my throat as I look her up and down. She has on white jeans,all white T-Shirt,and black 12's. She dyed her hair and I couldn't stop staring,she looks so different from the last time I seen her but I was still able to recognize her. She's glowing so much and her hair color fits her perfectly. She comes over to the table and slides into the booth,sitting across from me. She smiles at me and I smile back,in a slight a daze.

"Hey" She says

"Hey,these are for you" I say giving her the flowers

"Thanks" She smiles

"You look amazing,I'm so serious,I love your new color" I smile

"Thank you August,what did you wanna talk about?" She asks while taking a sip of the drink I ordered her

"Everything that happened" I say

"Ok" She sighs

"When Ro told me what to do I knew I couldn't do it,I would never kill Victor,I can never see myself doing that,I valued your feelings too much,I knew it would hurt you especially to know it was me who did it,it was around the time Mel and your dad passed so I was too confused to stay in New Orleans,that's one of the reasons I left,victor was always like an older brother to me,when Mel passed the only thing keeping me somewhat sane was Victor,they're so much alike it felt like I was still with Mel,if you're wondering,no I didn't have any second thoughts about not killing him,I'm sorry I put you through this knowing you're pregnant with our children,I'm sorry you got caught up in my bullshit,I'm sorry I didn't tell y'all sooner but I knew it would blow up like it did,I'm sorry I didn't get myself out of that lifestyle while you was telling me too,and I'm sorry for everything that happened with Ro,princess I miss you so much,I only seen you in one time the past month and it's been awful,I would never put you in danger intentionally and from here on out I will try harder to keep you protected,I want you back home,I want us to still walk down the aisle in a month and I want us to raise our children together" I say

She wipes a few stray tears and and reaches up to take my glasses off.

"I never felt nothing in the world like this before,I miss you like crazy,I wish you would come back home,with you not around,it's a little bit more than I can stand,Are you that afraid of me? What will it take to make you come back? I told you what it is,Why can't you look at me? Why can't we just start over again and get it back to the way it was? If you give me a chance,I can love you right but I feel like you're telling me it won't be enough" I say

"August I believe you,but the way I felt after I found out is hard to deal with,never would I have thought my fiancé was supposed to kill my brother,I'm trying to get passed it I really am,but it's hard to shake it away,it felt like my world came crashing down,I wanted to cry my eyes out but I couldn't cause I was tied up in a warehouse,I just need time to really gather myself,I would like to still get married next month but until then I just need a lil more time" She says

"That's understandable" I say

"I have to be somewhere important so I'll talk to you soon" She says

I nod my head and get up from the table,I go over to her side and sit next to her. I hold her face and look into her eyes.

"Princess I will wait for you,I don't know what else I can do but if it takes the rest of my life I don't care,I will wait for you forever,I really need you in my life,no matter what I have to do I'll wait for you" I say

I kiss her forehead and her belly before hugging her.

"I love you,let me know when you get to Victor's house" I say

"Ok,I love you too" She says

I pay for the stuff and walk her to her car. When she pulls off I get in my car and sit there for a minute. This might be a long wait but it's gonna be worth it.

A/N: Will They make it down the aisle in time? Will August and Victor talk too? Will everything finally go back to normal?
