a week later

"rue get back here!" i shouted. "no" she laughed, running in circles around the house. "it's late, which means bedtime" i mentioned. "i dont wanna go to bed" she whined.

"laila's right, you should go to sleep" slash agreed, walking into the room. "see? now come here so i can finish braiding your hair" i spoke. she just sighed before sitting in front of me.

i braided her hair as she watched mtv. "french braids, right?" rue confirmed. "yes" i nodded. even though she had long hair, it didnt take me very long.

"mkay, done" i spoke, securing the elastic around the end of her hair. "thanks" she spoke, completely engulfed in the tv in front of her. i stood up and turned it off.

i watched her face turn to complete disgust, making me laugh my ass off. "how dare you" she scowled. "bed, now" i strictly spoke, crossing my arms.

"do i have to sleep in the snake room?" she questioned. "see? im not the only one who hates it" i giggled, looking over at slash who was downing a jug of orange juice.

"no, you can have the other room" i chuckled. "mkay...goodnight i guess" she frowned, walking away slowly as she kept her head down. "stop overreacting" i spoke.

i heard the bedroom door click behind her, so i sighed out and sprawled my body out on the couch. slash just let out a chuckle and shook his head.

"i dont know why rue didnt wanna sleep...im fucking exhausted." i worked all day today, and i work tomorrow too. how fun.....

"she's a kid" he shrugged, putting the empty juice container on the counter. "you better replace that" i spoke, looking at him. "i will, dont worry" he promised.

"okay, okay....wanna have a bath?" i questioned. he nodded in response so i pushed myself off the couch and headed towards our room.

once i got inside the bathroom, i stripped all of my clothes off right away. i filled the tub up and jumped inside. "mm its so warm, you're missing out" i groaned, letting my head fall back.

"one second" he laughed, lighting up a joint. he brought it into the bathroom and held it out for me. "im good" i smiled, shaking my head. "are you still sick? you'd never turn weed down" he laughed.

"just not feeling it right now" i shrugged. huge lie...my mouth was watering for that shit, but i restrained from it. this whole no smoking, no drinking shit was hard.

wouldnt it suck if i wasnt even pregnant, so i was just doing this for no reason?

he shrugged it off and joined me in the spacious tub. "we might be going on tour soon" slash spoke from the silence. "oh, thats great" i smiled. "yeah" he nodded.

"how long would you be gone?" i asked. "a few months probably...and i'll be back here and there" he explained. "damn that long without you" i frowned.

to be honest, i was kinda worried about him being on the road. sure, he hasnt given me a reason not to trust him, but i'm still worried. i'm sure some people would be too.

the rest of the bath was relaxing, and eventually i was curled up in the warmth of my bed. i wasnt that tired anymore, so i just started reading a book i had bought the other day.
