The Come Up

Chapter 29

Diane walked in with a big smile on her face. She had on some black booty shorts, an off brand pink half shirt, and some pink Nike socks and slides. "Alexussssss," she said walking towards me with her arms open. I held my hand up to cut her off. "Why you acting like we friends? I don't like you... I really don't know why you in my house." I said staring in her eyes. For a minute she stared back. "Look I was wrong and I apologize. Your not perfect neither but your coming for me? Your pregnant..... Remember?" I giggled a little bit. "Bitch I'll bang yo damn face in," then I was cut off by Allen grabbing me. "Baby I'm good as long as she don't walk up... Daddy get her out my house." I said walking to my room. I heard Diane say, "She just mad because I took her man... I'll take him too. Excuse me. What's your name?" I just so happened to be walking by a concrete vase. I grabbed it and threw it down the hall. "GET OUT MY HOUSE!!!," I said walking towards her. Allen grabbed me before I could grab her. "Bitch I'll end your life... LET ME GO! Get the fuck out... GET THE FUCK OUT!", I said trying to wiggle out Allen's arms. "Nah don't hide behind me..." My Daddy said pushing Diane from behind him. "You started it..." He said laughing. Allen took me to the room and closed the door. "Baby calm down," Allen said calmly. "I'm calm. And you stay away from her..." He giggled. "You think that can take me from all this?" he said holding me. I smiled a little and hugged him back. "I'm not like them other niggas. I love you too much." A smile spread across my face. "I love you too baby."

We walked back in the living room hand and hand. Diane sat there looking at me. "Daddy... Why is she still here?" I said trying not to flip out again. "She's waiting on me," he said smiling. "She can wait outside..." Allen grabbed me and whispered in my ear, "Be nice Alexus.." I took a deep breath and rolled my eyes. "You can wait in here but you gotta get up out her chair," Allen said to Diane. She smiled and got up slow. "I don't want you... Stop trying." Allen said walking to the seat next to me. I laughed so hard I almost peed on myself. "Who said I wanted you?" she said trying to avoid the embarrassment. I shook my head and Monta came and jumped in my lap. "I miss you so much Nanna. Daddy got two dogs, a bird, and our dogs just had puppies. I got to name them and everything." I smiled at his excitement. Monta is the only child I know that can just sit up and talk about nothing all day. I start thinking about how much I loved him then the baby start kicking. "Nanna... Its moving." I laughed and put his hand where the baby was kicking. "He's kicking you. He likes you Monta." Monta just smiled. "It hurt?" He said looking curiously in my eyes. "A little bit but it's worth every pain." Monta laid his head on my belly and fell asleep. 

Every moment with my baby is priceless. He's been my reason for living and now Im bringing another reason into the world. "I gotta pee.." I moved Monta over so that I may go to the bathroom and soon as I stood up.... 

Allen's POV

 After all the commotion.. Everybody finally sat down to watch Poetic Justice. Diane was playing on her phone, Pops was half sleep, Monta was sleep on Alexus, and Alexus was laying on me watching the movie. "I gotta pee.." I heard her say. So, I moved my arm and she put Monta on my lap. Soon as she stood up her water broke. I got up and ran to the bedroom to get my keys, wallet, Alexus hospital bag, and the baby bag. "I need to take a shower..." Alexus said trying to walk to the bathroom. "Girl if you don't come on." I said holding her arm. I went and woke everyone up and off we went to the hospital. "Im getting in the car with y'all.." Diane said still trying to push up on me. I shook my head and grabbed Monta. I put them both in the car and sped off to the hospital. My heart was beating so fast I could hardly breathe.

When we pulled up Alexus mucus plug had came out in the car. "Thank God for towels." I said trying to make her laugh. She stood up and her legs shook. "You think you can walk to the door?" I said holding her up. She nodded and I handed Monta the baby bag. "Why she with us?" Alexus said looking at Diane. "Baby don't worry about her right now. Let's worry about the baby." She nodded again and walked in the door. "Excuse me ma'am. My girlfriend is in labor." The lady ran for a stretcher and a couple more nurses.
