Ours For The Taking

chapter 27: lazy

(MAY, NICKI'S POV)

"Rihmeek!" I yelled. He came downstairs. "Hand me that." I pointed to the remote."It's right there."

"Yea but I can't reach it."

"You're lazy. What are you doing?" The threw the remote to me and I smiled.

"I'm emailing my manager so I can find out what hotel we'll be staying at in New York. I'm working, what about you?" I looked up at him in his boxers. "Not funny."

"What? How many shows do you have next month? I have one every other day."

"Okay Nicki, enough."

"I'm only kidding. Besides, you have the same schedule as I do." I say. "You know that's not gonna last long." He sighed, laying next to me on the couch. "Don't think about that right now."

"Mmm Okay. Deadline?"

"Tomorrow."

"Okay, I will."

"Thanks baby."

"Rihmeek?" I say. "Yea?"

"I love you."

He chuckled. "I love you too old lady."

I got up off the couch and went into the kitchen. " I'm ordering groceries. Want anything?" I ask. "Nah, Thanks."

"Mkay..Well, can you clean up a bit? The house keepers will be here soon."

"That makes no sense." He laughs. I went upstairs and called Sherika, while I emailed my grocery list to Oscar.

"Hey girl."

"Hey. Will you come over? It's boring here."

"On my way."

I hung up and waited for her to get here.

"So, when do you start shooting for Barbershop 3?" She asks. "Tuesday I think. Next Tuesday." I nodded. "And It comes out on..."
