Added more stuff to my site & even more on Instagram [Listed in 'not an update' ] 😊 thank you to those that are/will supporting. I appreciate it and enjoy.
"How was your day at work?" Taylor asked as I walked in
I sighed, "It was...good actually." I replied
Brittany then crossed my mind. I don't know why I'm thinking of her.
"Oh, like any of your new clients?" She asked
"Yes, I did like one of 'em. Besides that, I had to damn near jump out of my suit on one of 'em."
"I told you to behave, Chris."
"And I did, I was being cordial but some people want you to give them something you don't have." He said
She playfully smiled, "And what didn't you have for them?"
"Something they—don't worry about it, what'd you do all day?"
She shrugged, "I went to the store earlier and got some of my cravings other than that I didn't do much but sleep and snack. I missed you." She smiled
I smiled in return, "I missed you more. You know what I haven't gotten in a few days?" I asked as I unzipped my pants.
"Oouu, what?" She said and pushed the comforter back
I walked over to her and hovered near the bed, "A got damn home cooked meal—I would really like some steak if you could." I said and then kissed her forehead
"Oh no, I cooked two days ago—you should be cooking for me."
"You right, but I will tomorrow. Can you be so kind and do it today though?"
She sighed, "I guess I will. But, before I do so you have to give me what I want. You got me all excited on the inside I think I deserve something." She said
I nodded, "Yeah, you do. I need to let off some mini men anyway, I been at attention all day."
"Mini men?" She laughed
"Yeah, my—you know what, let me go take a shower real quick. You just be ready when I get out."
"I'm always ready."
I smiled to myself while I walked away. Brittany is fine as hell, nice body and everything...but Taylor does as well, and I can't do her like that.

Hrs Later
Taylor
Chris went to sleep shortly after his shower. I of course put him to sleep. While he slept I went to the store to grab what I needed to make dinner for us and headed back to his place to start on it. He was still asleep when I got back so that left me time to finish up on this season I was watching before he came back.
The steak is the only thing I'm waiting on. I find myself making steak a lot now, seeing it's one of his favorites.
Chris came out of the room while rubbing his eyes, "Damn, why you let me sleep so long?"
"You needed your sleep." I said, pausing Netflix.
"Naw, you can press play. Im not gone so none but fall back to sleep on you." He said and sat down next to me and laid his head on my lap.
I rubbed his face and ears as I looked at the show. I knew that definitely put him back to sleep.
Once my timer on my phone went off I eased up so I wouldn't wake Chris and went in the kitchen to check on the steak. It's a must that I use a timer majority of the time I cook because of not, I will easily forget I'm cooking once I get distracted. I can't tell how many times Chris and I got distracted playing with each other or messing around and I forgot I was cooking.
When they looked just about done I finished preparing everything else and eventually woke him up.
"You really made me steak—I don't deserve you." He smiles while I sat down with both of our plates.
"You don't deserve me, because I was not supposed to be cooking tonight."
"I gotchu tomorrow, I'll make you whatever your heart desires." He smiled
"Whatever?"
"Yep, Anything."
"Okay, I want a seafood boil then. Do you know how to prepare that?" I asked
He made a face as if he was saying, 'Nigga please.'
"I've made that so many times I can show you how to make it. I thought I made you it before anyway."
"You probably have, but I want it again."
He nodded,"You know I got you then."

Friday Afternoon
"Since you're having her first grandchild, she really wants to meet you." Mia said
Mia and I were out to eat at a burger place while Chris was at work. She called me up to come out with her.
"I mean I don't mind meeting her at all, but when I first see her I would like for Chris to as well."
"We all know that's going to take forever to happen. So, what I'm going to do is give her your number, if you don't mind. Maybe you two can chat a bit before you actually meet." She replied
I sighed, "I don't know, Mia. I don't want him mad at me for deciding to meet his mom before he even does."
"He can't be mad because he's able to as well. You're having her grandchild she has all the right to want to meet you."
"You're right, I'm overthinking. You can give her my number." I replied
"Great! Now we just have to get him to comply." She said
"I know, that's probably going to be the hardest. But, I don't want to rush him or pressure him—allow him to move at his own pace." I said
"I will. I'm still kind of processing all of this and I knew what I was walking into so I know he's still trying to process all of this and he was caught completely off guard with the information."
"Yeah, see you understand. Let's head back to his place though, I want to take a nap. He doesn't get off until 6 today, you're welcome to stay for a while." I said as we stood up
"Why would I wanna stay while you're asleep?" She chuckled
I shrugged, "I don't know, I just want company. I was so used to him being around me all day for an entire month I got used to him being around, I've been lonely since he's been back." I said
"Well I'm a boring ass and I don't have anything exciting going on so I guess I can stay." She smiled
"Oh! I got something for you to do, I picked out a lot of office stuff and ideas for the offices of the firm him and I are working on—maybe you can narrow my choices down, or find better ones. I keep falling asleep or stalling. I don't think I'll ever get done." I said
"Now that sounds fun, you know I like researching stuff and visualizing things."
"Yeah I know, the perfect job for you."

Chris
"Did you file your complaint?" I asked Brittany as she walked into my office. She was running a bit behind but that was fine because my last client stayed longer than intended.
"For?...."
I raised my eyebrow, I wasn't going to tell her I want to see if she remembers what she came here for.
"Oh...oh, yeah! Wednesday I filed it."
"I wish you would've done this sooner because it'll make it harder for us to move forward without them accepting your complaint."
"They only take about a week to get back to you, right?" She asked
I couldn't help but chuckle, "No, they take two months...and that's minimum. They'll probably take longer since your case is so long ago." I replied
I'm still confused as to why she waited so long.
"We can't at least build the case and all that good stuff while we're waiting for their response?" she asked
"Well it depends on how good of evidence you have. If you have weak evidence we're going to be finished today and I can't help you. But, if you have enough beneficial evidence it could take two months or so building your case."
She nodded, as if she was taking in everything I said.
"So, do you have any evidence or what?" I chuckled
"Right right, sorry. My head has been over the place today. How have you been?" She asked
"I'm fine, can I have the folder?" I asked
She sat it on the table and I grabbed it.
"Real question is how have you been? You off every square today."
"Today hasn't been my best day. But, we don't have to talk about it, let's get to this." She said
Please believe I wasn't going to, you fine and all baby, but I honestly don't care.
"So, this is just a few text messages and emails. They don't give me much to go with." I said and closed the folder
"I could've sworn there were a few office photos inside as well."
"How'd you get office photos?" I asked
"I mean, sometimes I have them in there to record while my clients talk to me in case I need to refer back to a conversation."
That information is confidential for the most part so I wonder how she managed to have a camera in her office with clients and they never questioned it. Hm.
"I must've left some photos at home or on my desk or something." She said
I was growing a tad bit annoyed with her forgetfulness, that's if she's really been forgetting. I'm quick to overthink and I'll start to think she's leaving "them" on purpose.
"I promise, promise, promise I'll bring them next time. I keep forgetting and I know that may be annoying but I won't next time." She assured me
I sighed, "Okay, I don't like you wasting my time, Brittany." I said
"Oh please, your time will never be wasted when I'm in your presence," she smiled, "let's talk about a few possibilities that could happen when they respond to my complaint, then I'll be out of your hair."
I took another sigh, "Well...." I said and sat back, "First they have to approve it—like see fit for your complaint. Seeing it's been 3 years and you're just now making a complaint there's no telling if they'll approve it or not. But, If they do, then that's when I can use any and all of the evidence you give me, if you ever do, and prepare a case. I'll pass your case down after it's prepared and someone else will represent you in court."
"That'll be such a sad day for me." She said and started fiddling with her fingers.
"What will?"
"Me having to leave you. I enjoy our time.." she said and smiled
I mustered up a smile, "Since we have a little time to spare, let's get to know you." She suggested
"What is there to know? Everything you need to know, you know."
"Like, do you have a girlfriend or...you know?" She asked and scooted a bit closer.
We aren't officially together, but it's like we are...I don't know what we are.
"Y—"
"You took too long, is there someone or not? Are things complicated?"
"I'm dealing with someone, and she's having my baby." I replied
"Oh, how far along is she?" She asked
She didn't even seem surprised, for someone that's trying to pursue me.
"About 6 months."
"Hmph...are you happy?"
"Why would I be unhappy?"
"How does she look?" She asked
"She had a nice ass body before the pregnancy, and she still does."
Her shape—especially her ass, has enhanced tremendously and I love it.
"But you know once she meets the 8 month mark she's going to be huge. Then you know after she has the baby, her body may not snap back to that same shape." She explained
I never thought about that.
"You playin' wit' my head, I think it's time to go."
Brittany smiled and stood up and stood in front of me. She stared into my face and then knocked the folder into the floor and bent down right in front of me to pick it up.
She turned around while still in her crouched position and put her mouth near my ear, "You have two months to figure out if you want to test drive this. It'll be worth it." She kissed my ear and then pulled away, leaving out with a wink and smiling.
That damn Brittany.
