Life Living A Dream

Chapter 2

Previously:
I hung up the phone looking confused but happy and Sherika was sitting there with a smirk on her face.

Nic- "Why tf you lookin like a creep, weirdo"

Sherika- "Oh, no reason" she said in a matter-of-fact tone.
-----------------------------------------

Nic POV

I don't even remember falling asleep last night. I woke up this morning thinking about Meek. I had a dream I talked to him, but I didn't think I really did.
I went to my call log and saw the unsaved number that I talked with for 4 minutes and 29 seconds.

I smiled as it all came back to me. I decided to save the number as "Rihmeek"

I got out of the bed as I began to smell turkey bacon, eggs and coffee. After brushing my teeth and throwing on some shorts, I went downstairs to see Sherika standing over the stove.

Sherika- Goodmorning Annabelle. How are you feeling?

Nic- *sigh* I'm peaceful, right now. I'm going to just keep busy and try not to think about everything with SB anymore.

Sherika- That's a great idea. Plus, you got a busy day anyway. You gotta go see Mama Carol and your brothers, go to a fitting, and approve the final pictures for the calender.....and not to mention lunch with Meek. (looks up and smile)

Nic- you are soo extraaaaaaa. I'm thinking about cancelling with him. I have too much to do today already.

Meek POV:

I woke up in a good ass mood. I don't know if it's because Nic's voice was the last one I heard last night or not, but I was fuckin with this day already!

I woke up and brushed my teeth and washed my face and headed downstairs for a bottle of water. On the way down, my phone started ringing.
"Onika" appeared across the screen and a smiled.

Meek- "You must've missed my voice from last night...goodmorning"

Nic-(laughing) "boy, bye...Goodmorning to you too."

Meek- "what you doing?"

Nic- "Talking to my friend and going over the plans for today."

Meek- "I'm included in them plans right? Me and the Chasers going to touchdown in NY at like 330, I believe. I was going to come pick you up around 4:15."

Nic-*sigh* "I can't Meek, I'm sorry. This day is just so packed and I want to spend as much time with my mother and brothers as I can before I have to get some work done."

Meek- "Oh, ard. I'll catch you another time then. Have a nice day."

I tried my best to sound like I was unphased. Before she could even respond, I hung up and began drinking my water.

Shid, I guess I can hit Tak and the Chasers and tell them we can hit the club tonight, afterall.

------------------------------------------Nic POV:

I instantly felt alone and like shit for cancelling on Meek. I wanted to see him deep down, but I was scared of what was going to come after today....

Sherika- "I'm not even going to ask you the real reason for why you just cut the plans with him"

Nic- (i lied) "Cuz....it's a busy day today."

I noticed Sherika side eyeing and rolling her eyes at me. I looked over at the clock on the stove and noticed it was almost 9:30am.

Nic- I'm going to get dressed so I can leave.

(11:15 am
Mama Carol house)

Nic POV

I never told mommy nor my brothers what time I was coming. I know they don't sleep past 10 am in this house so I would just use my key and surprise them.

After using my key to get in, I saw my mother standing in the kitchen with a apron on.

Nic- "Mommmmmyyyy"

Carol- "Wud yhu look ah mi baby. Hey mi dawta" she said in her thick Trini accent.

Nic- I missed you soooooo muchhhh. Where's Caiah?

Carol- He's ah up dere in de bed.

Nic- I'm going to see him. I'll be back.

I went to Caiah room and saw him sleeping peacefully in his bed. I laid down with him and kissed his forehead. I stared at him for a minute and found myself silently crying to myself.

Of everybody in my world, this was one of the 3 people that I can always count on to always be by my side. I love my Lulu so much.

Caiah- "You are such a creep."

Nic- (I jumped a little because I didn't know he had woken up) Hey my baby brotherrrr. Wake up. I missed you!

Caiah- "I missed you too Nic....umm, how long have you been in here?"

Nic- "10 minutes, maybe...Get up and brush your teeth, mommy cooking brunch."

I got up and headed downstairs and laid on the couch and texted Jelani. He said he would be there in about a hour.

Meek POV:

The G5 had just landed in NY and we were loading the cars to head to our hotel.

Tak- So Nic cancelled on you?

Meek- yeah man, she had a lot going on so it's okay. Imma catch her little fine ass another time. In the mean time, we gone do this walk through and find some freak hoes at the afterparty.
(laughing and dapping his friend up)

Nic POV:

"That was so delicious Mommy, thanks again. I will call yall when I'm done with my fitting and calender approval, if it's not too late, I'll come back."

I hugged and kissed everybody and headed to the driveway to get in my Rover.

I didn't have security with me yet, but once I left my fitting, they would be with me.

(5 hours later: After the fitting and calender approval)
My phone started ringing and I looked down to see it was Rika.

Nic- "Hey babe"

Rika- "Hey honey. What you doing?"

Nic- "Nothing just got down with everything, about to go to the hotel and lay down."

Rika- "I think we should go out tonight. TT, Candi and Thembi here too and I don't wanna waste the night."

Nic- "No, I don't wanna go. I just wanna sleep...yall can go without me."
I heard Sherika sigh and smack her lips.

Right when I was about to say something, my phone started vibrating and I instantly got 15 txt messages. I looked down and saw that it was SB.

Afraid that I was going to become depressed If I went back to the room alone, I said to Sherika "On second thought, I think a girls night out is exactly what we need".
