Today was more so on the chilly side. It was still the beginning of March so the weather was flip floppy. One day it was chilly the next day it was a little warmer. Where they stayed, the weather was always confusing.

Today was the start of a new week, it was Monday. Unfortunately Destinee wasn't too happy about it being Monday, she had to go to school. She laid in bed for a few minutes rethinking life and the reasons why she really woke up every morning to attend school.

Just three more months until she graduates. She has never been so ready for months to fly by. She removed herself from TJ's heavy arms. She sat at the edge of her bed stretching, she let out the most dramatic yawn.

TJ stirred in his sleep, he sucked his teeth a little. "Des shut the hell up."

"You try getting up every morning to attend school."

"I'm good, did that shit before I can't do it again."

"Lucky you."

"Mhm.. give me a kiss."

"I have morning breath-"

"When did I ever give a fuck?" TJ questioned. He left no time for Destinee to answer, he had already pulled her over to him and peck her lips a few times. He rubbed his hand soothingly over her stomach. Realization hits every day that they were really about to be parents.

"I love you."

"I love you more Taevis."

"Damn, we're having a baby."

"Yes we are." Destinee laughed lightly, "are you ready?"

"I am, I still have a lot of shit that I need to learn though. Are you ready?"

"I won't say that I'm ready and I won't say that I'm not, if that makes sense." Destinee responded, "I have a lot to learn as well, I don't want to feel like everything I'm doing is wrong. But I'm onboard with the baby, I'm happy."

TJ smirked. Even though they had already discussed the baby situation, it still felt good for him to hear that Destinee was onboard with having the baby. It was like reassurance for him.

"You're going to make me late for school Taevis."

"It isn't like you want to go anyway."

"Good point."

TJ laughed. He allowed Destinee to go on with her morning hygiene. He found himself getting comfortable in bed drifting off to sleep. Within a few minutes he was out.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth Destinee made her way downstairs to find something to eat. She wasn't a breakfast person, but not eating breakfast and then going to school and not eating lunch had became an unhealthy habit of hers.

She settled for some apple cinnamon oatmeal. She ate, and got dressed directly after. She wore black sweats, with a hood to match. She didn't bother putting on an undershirt. She put on some socks to go with her crocs and left it at that.

She didn't feel the need to go to school dressed up, she didn't even feel like being there today. Laying in bed was the only thing that sounded good to her at the moment.
