La'Nae P.O.V
I roll over to see Chris sound asleep next to me. Knowing him he gone want to talk about it and we're we stand. I roll out his bed heading to the bathroom. As I do my morning hygiene the whole time I'm thinking if I should make a ran for it or not. Fuck and duck his ass.
I walk out the bathroom naked as the day I was born. I came naked tho. I slipped on one of his shirts and a pair of boxers.
I walk downstairs to the kitchen. Shit, I'm hungry. I open the refrigerator.
EMPTY! EMPTY I'M GOING TO DIE OF HUNGER.
I ran up stairs to his room, slipped on a pair of his sweats. Thank God I had a pair of shoes left over here.
I hopped in his car - I have no clue where my keys are. I sped to the grocery store. I wonder what this nigga was eating. I know y'all like what the fuck wrong with her? But at the end of the day I'mma still ride for him together or not right or wrong. We been fucking with each other, even if it was rocky from the start. After I left the grocery store. I drove to get something to eat for us at the Waffle House.
Chris P.O.V
I woke up to an empty bed. I knew she was going to regret it, but damn she left a nigga while he was sleep. I feel like a fuck and duck.
Now I see how girls feel.
I walked into the bathroom to shower. I walked out with my towel around me to see Nae. Hell I was shocked. I thought she left.
I slipped on some boxers and follow her downstairs.
La'Nae P.O.V
I brought all the bags in the house and put our food down. I walked into his room, but he wasn't in the bed. I heard the shower on. I stripped down only in his shirt. So I waited. He came out shocked to see me. Hell me too. Fucking heart. I hate you.
"I thought you left." He said as he followed me to the kitchen.
"I thought about it, but I know what you was going to ask after so I stayed. Might as well get it over with. I went to get you some grocery because there wasn't shit in here and I was hungry." He laughed. We put the grocery up and started to eat.
Awkward.
"Listen I'll be real with you. That was a bitch move you pulled. After five years our relationship has really been fucked up. From the cheating, arguing, fighting the women, crazy psycho ass dude and girl, to the having a baby, being engaged, then it started back where it started. The beginning. I'm sick of it. I've tried so hard not too give up, but there's still that love I have for you and plus we have a child together. Look how well that turned out. I'm not saying we getting back together, but we can be friends and just take care of our daughter." I hate to say it, but it is what it is.
"I agree and again I'm so sorry for everything. This time around will be different. I promise." He kissed my hand.
"We'll see, but there's a catch." He raised an eyebrow.
"What?"
"Sex keeps happening. If either of us find someone, then we have to stop. Deal." He nodded.
"Deal." I nodded and continued eating.
"So what about the gang and Nanna?" He looked so guilty saying her name.
"I'll leave that up to you sir. I'm not getting in that." I laughed.
"Please help me talk to them. Shit everyone hates me. I can't even walk in the room to feel the tension. Shit I'm scared they ass plotting to jump me." I laugh even harder. He looked at me. I had to catch my breath.
"Stop being scared and do it yourself. You caused it." He put his head down.
"I know you don't have to remind me." He says lowly.
"Look at me. No one is perfect we all make mistakes that's what helps us grow as a person and individual. Some mistakes worse then others, but its still a mistake. You learn from them and become a better man. Not because I want you to or others want you too. Do it for yourself. Your daughter looks up to you, no matter what. I know you wouldn't want to disappoint her. I love you forever and ever."
"From the moon and back. Forever and ever." He kissed my forehead.
"Don't be putting your lips on me nigga." I said.
"You wasn't saying that when I was eating that pussy or beating it up." He winked at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Whatever. The lies you tell."
"But can you please help me talk to them?" I rolled my eyes.
"Sure. I need to go home and change you can follow me." He nodded. I threw our trash away. I had finally found my keys. They just so happened to be under the couch.
We pulled up to my house. I jogged up to my room to change. I put on some High Waisted Skinny Jeans, a Purple and White Adidas Shirt, and my Purple and White Adidas. I threw my hair in a ponytail.
I grabbed my purse, keys, and popped some gum in my mouth.
The ride to Nanna's house was quiet. He looked nervous as we pulled up.
"You don't have to worry, you know?" I told him. He nodded. We got out. I knocked on the door and we waited. Anthony opened the door. His eyes went big then he looked at me.
"He needs to talk to Nanna. It's been long enough." He nodded knowing its true. He let us in. Nanna was sitting in the couch watching TV. She looked our way rolled her eyes at him and turned back to the TV.
"Nanna stop it. You two need to talk." I said.
"I have nothing to say."
"Lies, but since you have nothing to say you're going to listen to him." I stated firmly.
"Fine." She pouted. I shook my head. He walked over to where she was sitting. Anthony and I stood at the door watching.
"I want to start off by saying I'm sorry I disappointed you. It was my jealousy and me being drunk and high that hit her. I see that that was the biggest mistake of my life. I did something that could reflect to my daughter and I don't want that for her. I'm working on becoming a better man for myself as well as my daughter. I should be setting an example not ruining things. I apologize time and time again to La'Nae. Yes I know I hurt her, but no matter what I'll still love her. I made myself look like an ass for too long. Now it's time to make it right. I love you Nanna and I'm sorry." She had tears coming from her eyes. He wiped her tears and pulled her into a hug. I'm glad that they had this talk. It's something that needed to be done.
They talked for a while. After everything I'm just glad things with them will get better.
"Thank you." Nanna whispered in my ear before we left.
The car ride from Nanna's house was quiet, but the radio was on.
"Thanks for what you did at Nanna's house."
"It was nothing."
"So friend what do you want to do?"
"It don't matter to me."
"Oh really." He had that smirk on his face. Why did I say that.
"No I'm tired. Try again?"
"We could go get CiCi and I can take you two to the movies and then out to eat." He suggested.
"That's sounds better then the first option." I said.

The movies was fun. We watched The Croods yet again because that's what CiCi wanted to see. After the movies we went to Dave & Busters to eat.
This is what we needed. Luckily the moms that walked up to him he turned them down. Some of them eyed me down or glared at me. You have kids and you acting like a kid.
It was getting late and I knew CiCi was tired. Chris carried her to the car and put her in her seat.
"We need to do this more often." He said pulling out the parking lot.
"Yeah we really should and I give you props for telling them girls off. But CiCi didn't make it no better." We laughed.
Some chick had walked up to Chris while they we waiting in line getting a prize. So the chick comes up trying to flirt and CiCi gave her the screw face 'cause her breathe was that bad. So CiCi was like "Oh no lady you can't talk to my daddy with your breathe smelling like doo doo". The lady had rolled her eyes at CiCi and Cianna told her she'd poke her eyes out if she did it again. Chris laughed his ass off.
"She's just like her momma." He said.
"No the hell she not. That's all you."
"You a lie. CiCi got your attitude and you know she do." I playfully hit him.
"Okay so what? At least she not gone let no one boss her around." I stuck my tongue out at him.
When we got back to my place he put CiCi to bed and he left. He coming back in the morning so we could talk to the gang.
The next day the gang came over and we talked it out. At first they were all 'hell no', 'fuck you', 'bitch nigga', 'I should shoot yo ass'. I couldn't help but laugh. Them my niggas though.
At the end of the day they need to squash the beef 'cause they all work together. If they got beef and in this line of business it's not going to work out.
Peace at last.
