The next couple of days, Riley and Xerxes were getting used to living in their new home. Riley kept checking her phone for a notification every second making Xerxes wonder what was going on with her.

It was a bit unusual for Riley to sit there holding her phone, jumping each time it ding, which caused Xerxes' concern. Did he think she was cheating? No, but it was something bothering her which caused him to worry.

As he watched Riley, as her phone dinged again, and immediately she checked it, groaning as she looked like she was about to throw it, making Xerxes finally come completely down the stairs.

"Babe, why you looked stressed?"

"I'm not. It's just they said they would release the magazine at 2:00 pm. It's fucking 2:30 now like get the entire fuck out of here." She said, making him chuckle, sitting down on the couch beside her.

"I'm glad you think this shit is funny."

"Babygirl, I don't. It's just that you are stressing yourself over nothing. Maybe that got backed up of something. Did you think about that? It'll come o--"

He got cut from the dinging of her phone again as Riley's eyes widen. "See," He said, making her roll her eyes smiling.

"They look good. Hold on." She said, going on her computer then putting the computer screen on the TV.

"How the fuck you do that? I couldn't figure out that stupid ass tv to save my life."

"I took a computer class one day because I was bored plus my godfather is Gunz. You should know how to do this too, considering Uncle Victor, Vi, and Emanuel." She said, typing.

"Well, Ri, my family is fucking huge, and they had their own kids as well. You know I like to read than to deal with technology," He said, which Riley knew and loved the fact.

"What the fuck ever-Oh shit," Riley said, seeing the pictures. When they finally came up, she was happy for herself.

"They came out just as I imagined, perfect." She said, making Xerxes smirked, pulling her over to him kissing her forehead.

"Just like I knew they would. Shit, you are so fucking sexy in these pictures, Ri-- Did she send those in large copies are? Do we need to get them made? I need to put them on the walls here. "

"Wait, the walls in here? Babe, those are sexual pictures. Your family will see me only in a dress vest and panties every time they walk through the door?

"Okay, and you act like all my siblings and cousins haven't seen you like that. Plus, what about it? This is our house. If they don't like it, the front door is right through there, but it's fine if you are not comfortable with it; I won't pressure you. If you are, let's do it. We gotta start putting up pictures anyhow."

Xerxes didn't know that Riley had blown up some of the pictures they took together in Cali and was waiting for them to arrive as a surprise.

She smiled, shaking her head, texting Cam for the pictures. "She said they'll be here tomorrow. Xerxes, could one day you do one with me?" She asked, making his eyes widen, lucky she wasn't looking.

"A what?"

"A photoshoot. I could rent out a studio and pay a photographer. Then we could take some pictures then hang them up on the wall. How about that?"

Xerxes sighed, nodding his head. "If you want to," He said, but Xerxes wasn't going to tell Riley about him being a model just yet.

Later that day, Xerxes had to got help his father and Uncle Victor with something. He didn't even know he was Vince was in D.C. until then.
