Ain't nothin' wrong with that
That's how I like it, baby

White T-Shirt, I love that
Timberland boots, you does that, it's a fact
That's how I like it, baby
The way you walk (walk)
The way you talk (talk)
The way you dress (dress)
The way you smile
I like the way you are (are)
The way you ain't (ain't)
I like your honesty, integrity
It levels me, so please don't ever change
That's how you like it, huh
That's how you like it, huh
That's how you like it, huh
That's how I like it baby...

I closed the toilet seat and sat on it while Lennox sat on the edge of the tub. We didn't say anything to each other we just waited until the timer went off on my phone. The silence was so awkward and I glanced over at Lennox and he looked like he was praying to God.

The timer went off on my phone and before I could even get up Lennox did and grabbed the pregnancy test off the bathroom sink.

What does it say?

The same thing they all been saying, It's negative.

When the time is right it'll happen Lennox.

I guess he said walking out the bathroom and I followed behind him.

Let's try again right now.

I can't I'm about to meet Hope remember, we can when I get back.

I'll probably be gone.

Where are you going?

Me and Genesis gotta go drop this shit off in Philly.

When were you going to tell me?

I'm telling you now.

Yea short fucking notice don't you think.

I'll be back in the morning Lauren.

Whatever I said going to grab my keys and purse then leaving out the house. I was going to meet Hope at outback for lunch since I haven't seen her in a few weeks. She's been busy with work school and Legend and Ive  been missing my friend so this was well needed.

I got to the restaurant before her so the waitress escorted me to a table and I waited for Hope to get there.

Hey she said sliding into the booth across from me.

I didn't even see you come in I was too busy with my damn head in my phone.

You lacking in Legends voice she said making us both laugh. So what's been going on? I feel like I haven't seen or talked to you in forever.

I know, you've been getting to it miss mamas, work school and all that, I'm proud of you.

Thanks she said smiling.

Meanwhile I've been stressed the hell out.

Why?

The waitress came over and we placed our orders then carried on with our conversation.

It's Lennox.

What's wrong with Lennox?

He wants to have sex all day long, the only time I get a break is when I'm at work. Sometimes I have to go chill at my moms just to avoid his ass.

But why she said laughing, I thought your freaky self loved every bit of it.

I do. But Lennox is obsessed with trying to have a baby.
