1 week later

     It was 12:49 a.m, and Kailani was peacefully asleep in her bed. Surprisingly, alone. Duke was not with her because he was shooting with AMP all day, that he wouldn't even be finished with the shoot until 12. And Kailani knew that she wouldn't be a happy woman, if she had to wake up in the middle of the night, just to let him in her house. So she told him just to stay home.

While she was asleep in her bed, Duke was wide awake in his streaming room, on stream. He did try to go to bed, but he just couldn't without her next to him. He honestly didn't know what he did before he met her.

He had just gotten on stream, and he was just talking to everyone. He hadn't been streaming as often since he met Kailani and he felt bad. Kinda.

     "'Why you ain been streaming?', Jus' been busy." Duke shrugged.

     "What y'all tryna do? React?" He read the chat, trying to confirm whether or not to go to the react channel, and see what they've sent him.

     "Alrigh, we gonna react for a little." He switched through his tabs, trying to find the right one. Once he found it he clicked the react channel, and he scrolled up to start from the top.

The first thing that he clicked on, was someone cosplaying AMP. When the video ended, Duke had no words, and all he could do was scratch the back of his head.

"I'a block you for sending me that shit. Don't be sending me that shit again. Thas all I gotta say, forreal." He cleared his throat, as he clicked the next thing.

The next thing that he had clicked, was a picture that someone had taken from the New Year's Eve party, of Kailani and Duke on the roof, kissing.

He stared at it for a second, before speaking, "Why y'all think I'a have a reaction to this?" He gave the camera a confused face.

"I kno' it happened. I was there. Acting like it's somen' new. Y'all been known about us." He shrugged, as he clicked the next thing.

     Duke sat on his stream, without a care in the world, well, besides the fact that he was only on stream because he couldn't sleep with Kailani.

     While Duke was sitting on stream, and talking to the people watching him, Kailani's phone kept ringing.

     She threw her hand onto her nightstand, hitting the power button once, so the call would go silent, so she could focus on going back to bed. Before it rang again. And again. This time, she decided to awnser it without looking at the contact name.

     "Kailani?"

     Recognizing the voice of her brother, Koa, she sighed.

     "Yes?"

     "Why did you take so long to awnser your phone?"

     "Cause I was asleep. What's up though?" She ran a hand down her face, mad that she was woken up.

     "Meleya's water broke."

     Kailani immediately sat up in her bed, "What the hell? Why didn't you start with that?!" She threw the covers off of herself, and started to move around her room, not doing anything, just panicking.

     "It happened a couple minutes ago - she wanted to call you first."

     "Shit - okay! I'll figure something out, okay? I'll be there."

     "Lani its fine if you miss the labor, just if you're here in the end. I know how hard it's going to be for a flight from Atlanta to Charleston, don't sweat it."
