I woke to the sound if Xavier's cough. Hopefully he wasn't having an asthma attack, he has always had a hard time finding his inhaler. Jorel groaned pulling me in tighter. Xavier kept coughing and it was getting worst. I sat up instantly flying out of bed and into Xavier's room. Tears covered his face and were falling from his gray eyes as he laid in the floor. I found the inhaler in his bathroom on the counter.

I ran back to him to see Jorel cradling him in his arms. Xavier coughed gripping onto him for his dear life. I ran over to them and put the inhaler to Xavier's coughing mouth. He tried to calm down taking the inhaler and breathing deeply. I got up running to the bathroom and filling a cup with water. When I got back Xavier was curled up in Jorels arms crying lightly. I sat infront of them as Xavier took the water with tears in his eyes. Xavier handed me the water when he finished it, and curled up in Jorels arms. After what felt like hours, he fell asleep. Jorel got up and tucked him in bed for the second time. I smiled walking back to my bedroom and plopping onto my bed. I heard him come in. He picked me up and pulled me under the covers with him. I cuddled into him wrapping my legs around his. He held me close and kissed my head. I fell back asleep to our body heat.

"MOMMY HELP!" I woke up to Xavier's loud squeal and giggles. Jorel wasn't beside me meaning he was playing with Xavier. I walked out of the bedroom putting my hair in a messy bun, when I saw Jorel holding Xavier upside down while Michael tickled him.

"You guys choose to do this in the middle of the hall why?" I asked taking Xavier from them both.

"Because it's the best wake up call." Michael laughed running and jumping onto the couch.

"Mommy can I do that?!" Xavier's eyes sparkled.

"No! Not on the couch. Your Uncle Michael shouldn't either." I scolded. He laughed in return turning the tv on with a smile. "I'm trusting you guys today, I have to go grocery shopping." They all looked at me as I pulled the chocolate and milk out. I poured a glass of milk, and stirred the chocolate in with it. When I handed it to Xavier he cautiously walked over to the table and put it down.

"Thank you mommy." Xavier took a drink and smiled.

"You're welcome." I ran my fingers through Xavier's hair before going back to my bedroom. I pulled out a pair of jeans, purple tank top, and some purple flats with a purple flower on them.

"Before you go, is he allergic to anything?" Jorel asked before I walked into the bathroom.

"Nuts." I smiled.

"That's a good thing." I laughed rolling my eyes and closing the door. When I got dressed I quickly curled my hair, and applied some makeup. I grabbed my purse, and threw it over my shoulder walking down the hall. Wolf whistles came from the living room while I searched for my keys.

"Bye momma, I love you." Xavier came and gave me a hug.

"Bye honey, love you too." I kissed his head and walked out. My phone buzzed from my pocket saying Courtney was still at work. I started walking down the street to where the grocery store would be. When I arrived the place was completely empty. I started getting the normal stuff, and soon got some food. Courtney would pick up milk on her way home from work. My gray eyes scanned around the store for about 30 minutes until my phone starting ringing. "Hello?" I picked up going to the check out lane.

"Hey I'm taking Xavier and Michael to the show with me." Jorel said.

"How did you get my number?" I asked paying the cashier.

"Our son has it memorized." He chuckled.

"Thanks." I held my hand over the speaker. "That's great, and I mean that in a good sarcastic way." I laughed getting the bags and walking out.

"You should come with us, the password to get backstage is-" he was cut off by Xavier.

"CHOCOLATE MILK!" Xavier screamed.

"Right, the password is chocolate milk." I laughed again.

"Sure." Jorel chuckled. "Well the guys showed up, I'll see you there." He hung up. I honestly had no idea if this was a good idea or not...
