"What about Rih?"
"Why don't you ask him? Y'all not together so he has no reason to lie."
"That's a good idea?"
"No harm in asking."
The woman sighed and nodded before getting out and shutting the door.
"Hi babygirl." Jacques smiled
"It's still Cyn."
"What's up T." Tarren dapped up Jacques
"Can I have a hug?" Cyn asked abruptly
"Sorry. That was weird." She added with a laugh before walking away to grab a basket
"She's funny." Jacques laughed
"She miss you."
"Shit, I miss her."
"You got a hell of a way of showing it."
"That shit from earlier was a photoshoot. Nothing else."
"She sorta came to work shit out. The non communication is getting to her. I mean she asked for a fucking hug not to long ago. Not because she wanted one, she needed one."
"T come here."
"I got it." Jacques jogged up to Cyn
He placed a hand on either side of her as she held on to the basket.
"Umm Jacques you're getting kinda close." The woman pushed him slightly trying to hide her smile
"My fault babygirl. What we looking at?"
"I'm not sure of the gender yet so let's get little stuff. Well, the other stuff."
"What about the house in Houston? You don't want to get that set up first?"
"I thought it was already set up?"
"It is but you might not like it. Put your own touch on your own house."
"I can't afford that right now anyway."
Jacques only shook his head with a goofy smile.
"No Jac-"
"Let me take care of my baby." He laughed rubbing her stomach
"She or he is fine."
"I'm talking about you. Fuck, let me treat you how I should have. I'm sorry mama." His laughter died down as he became serious
"What a-"
"Fuck her. We never dated. That shit earlier was a photoshoot, nothing else. Promise?"
"Okay."
"This morning was nothing. Cyn, please."
"Okay. I said okay. Earn it."
"That's like saying yes and no."
"No. Earn it means it's not going to be easy. It means yes just when I feel like both of us are ready."
"It's been 5 months babygirl."
"You were just with Rih earlier. We were on a good track, I wanted a hug and things could have gotten better over time."
"Whatever babygirl. I'm not giving up so make every excuse you want. It don't matter."
"I'm not going to change anything in that house by the way." Cyn added after a small silence
"Why not?"
"I'm waiting for our house."
"Our house?" The man smiled pulling her away from the basket
"Can I have my hug now?"
The man wrapped her small body in his arms and the duo hugged for what seemed like hours. Being without one another took a toll of both of the two.
"Fuck, I missed you." The woman coughed before starting to cry
"You have no idea."
"You leaving tonight?" The woman asked as she pulled away slightly to look up at his face
"Suppose to be but no. I'll book another flight, stay with me tonight."
"Yeah."
"I wasn't asking."
The woman smiled at the man and kissed his lips. He pecked her lips 5 more times then let her go.
"I know I still have to earn it and I'm up for that."
"When are you leaving?"
"Whenever. I'm not ready to leave you yet."
"I'm not ready for you to go."
"Can we go,now?"
The man shot her another smile and pulled away pulling her out the store.
"I can't walk fast Trav." She laughed
He just smiled back at her and continued walking. Once in the car she shot Tarren a text.
To Brother❤️:
I'm going with Trav. I'll be back tomorrow.😊😊😊😊
From Brother❤️:
Don't do anything I wouldn't .🤔
To Brother❤️:
What wouldn't you do?🤔
From Brother❤️:
😭I'm mad serious though sis.
To Brother❤️:
Bye. Love you.
From Brother❤️:
Love you too sis.
The woman couldn't keep a smile from her face nor keep her eyes off of Trav.
"What babygirl?"
She only cheesed a bit harder.
"I miss you too Cyn." The man laughed
-
The duo pulled up to a hotel. Travis bounced out while Cyn struggled.
"I got you babygirl." Trav laughed helping Cyn out the car
"It's so low. Why?" She growled once finally to her feet
They walked in the hotel together as paparazzi flashed them hundreds of times. They made it to the 31st floor into his room.
She immediately went to the bed and plopped down with a sigh.
"You tired?"
"Come lay with me." She shook her head while waving him over
He took off his jacket, shirt, and shoes then climbed in bed with his princess.
"How far along are you again?"
"4 months. 5 in 6 days."
"When you find out the gender?"
"Two weeks at my next appointment."
"Can I be there for it?"
"I scheduled it in Houston."
She could feel him smile.
"Really?"
"Yes sir."
"So when you coming down?"
"Next week maybe. I hadn't started packing yet."
"You wanna move there?"
"I want to move I'm our house but for a start yeah."
"For a start?"
"Yeah."
"I'll work with that."
