egypt aaliyah ali
i walked into the room and watched as luca tied his hair up as he walked out the bathroom. he looked so good with his hair long. i preferred it this way.
"i just got her to sleep so don't make too much noise," he said getting in the bed.
"okay father of the year," i smiled sitting my drinks and snacks down on the nightstand before sitting on the bed next to him.
he was so good with kaaliya it honestly surprised me considering i could already tell she was going to be a mommy's girl. whenever i moved away from her she'd start crying but luca would somehow manage to calm her down and put her to sleep.
"you tired?" i asked looking down at him. it was almost three in the morning and he had barely gotten any sleep.
"a lil," he shrugged. i reached over and started playing with his hair.
"you ready to have that conversation now?" i asked. he sat up a lil and wrapped his arms around my waist.
"i just wanna start off by apologising for being sneaky and shit. i should've told you what i was on from the jump. ian mean to throw it back in yo face and shit i just felt like you was judging me or sum shit," he yawned.
"i understand you're scared of what happened with tavares and shit but i promise you, some shit like that won't ever happen again. that's why i got extra security innis bitch but if you want i can teach you how to shoot," he said and i furrowed my eyebrows.
"what i'm sayin is, you gotta understand that street shit is all i know. until i'm completely ready to let that shit go i can't just move on from it. i know i said i would but it was all this pressure on me to change and shit and it made me feel uncomfortable so that's why i felt like i had to keep that shit from you. i hate lyin to you but i felt like i had no other choice but to,"
i sighed before nodding, "i understand. it's something you been doin your whole life. it was selfish of me to put allat pressure on you about leaving that shit alone and i shouldn't have done that but i felt like if i didn't push you something worse could've happened,"
"i know," he said, "i was slacking a lil in the boyfriend/fiancé department but i'm not here to play no games with you egypt and you know that,"
"i know," i nodded. his whole attitude towards everything changed as soon as he got to hold kaaliya in his arms. it's like he switched straight into protective mode. not saying he wasn't protective over me before, but he was definitely more protective of us now.
"ima do whatever it takes to make sure y'all good all the time. no slackin, ever. you hear me?" he said and i nodded.
"we in this for life girl, ain't no gettin rid of me," he mugged me.
"so whatchu muggin me for?" i laughed.
"because yo," he shook his head, "you tried to do that shit twice. but i noticed that's how you deal with a lot of things. you just be leaving it alone instead of trying to fix it,"
