Beys POV
Bey: *parks car* alright, you ready?
Chris: yea I just uh-don't know why I'm so nervous
Bey: baby, you'll be fine. *kiss* Richard is a nice guy trust me!
We get out and he's sweating. We're having dinner at my parents house and it's their first time meeting Chris. I've filled them in from time to time and they are pretty on the fence about Chris. They just don't want me to get another Jay. Chris made a pot of gumbo and it's really good. But not as good as my moms but he wanted to make the dish himself. We walk up the steps and my mom opens the door before we even knock.
Momma T: my baby!!!!
I run in and hug her to death. Chris follows behind me and shuts the door.
Chris: Hi Mrs.-
Momma T: *hugs Chris* call me momma T. Ooh you so handsome. Oh lemme get this for you bab-
Chris: it's ok, I got it. Where should I put it?
She shows him to the kitchen and my step dad walks in and gives me a hug.
Chris: it's my version of gumbo. But I wanted you to be the judge since your daughter says you are an expert.
Momma T: thank you sweetheart and yes I'll let you know
Chris: *turns toward Richard and puts hand out for a handshake* hello Mr. Lawson, nice to meet you, I'm Chris.
Richard: hello. *avoids shaking Chris hand* Tina, do you need help finis-
Momma T: Richard! Don't be rude
Richard: I'm gonna help set up the table*walks Away*
Bey: Dad? Chris, don't pay any mind.
Chris POV
Atleast I got her mothers kindness so far. Richard , not so much.
Chris: it's ok. If my daughter brought someone to me for the first time, I'd be protective too. So I-
Momma T: Christopher dear, don't pay him any mind. If ya ask me, he can sometimes be a pain in the behind. Alright anyways let's sit and get to eating and chatting.
We all help set the table up and Richard has even giving me the death stare and side eyes the whole time. I just avoid it and suddenly, the front door swings open.
Solo: WHERES MY SISTA?!?!
Bey: SOLO!!
Aww, she jumps up in joy and runs to her sister as Solange closes the door and they hug tight

Solo: WHERES MY SISTA?!?!Bey: SOLO!!Aww, she jumps up in joy and runs to her sister as Solange closes the door and they hug tight

Momma T: aww my babies! *runs to them*
They all hug and Solange gives Richard a hug and then look twoards me. She squints her eyes at first
Chris: Hey Solange! I'm Chris, it's nice to finally meet you! I feel like I know you already by how much Bey talks about you
Solo: *hugs Chris* nice to meet you Chris and funny, I can say the same. She mights accidentally told me too much haha
We all laugh except for Richard who know looks very angry. We sit down a the table and pray and amen and we get to eating.
Richard: alright, let's get to the bottom of this. Are you with my daughter just for sex?
Everyone including I, almost choked on our food.
Momma T/S/B: Richard?!
Richard: what? Fair quesiton. *chuckles* cause I don't see how 2 people fall in love that quick.
Momma T: Richard, we got married after 8 months of being together. Love is love. Can't ask them a question like that.
It gets silent.
Momma T: yknow you asked me earlier for my rating on your gumbo...8/10 it is amazing but a lil more spice and salt, bam! 10/10. It's really good and thank you for making it for us as well.
Chris: imma write that down. Thank you momma T.
We discuss about my career and how it's going, then as I fear, the personal quesitons.
Richard: how many women have you slept with before my daughter?
Chris: *smiles and trying to keep composure* it dosent really matter. None of them are preg-
Richard: heard one of them beat my daughter up*aggressively cutting up food* yet you seem so "worried".
Chris: sir, I protect your daughter with my life and technically, your daughter finished it even tho she didn't start it. She's strong.
Richard: I know. I help built her that way. Have you guys been using protection while having sex? Or is this one of your plots to get her pregnant so you guys like good together and for your career to expand?
Bey: ENOUGH! Stop it!
Richard: don't tell me what to do! I can tell he's not with you for the right reasons! I know he gets around.
Bey: he's extremely loyal and he's no Jay!
Richard: you know what I found on this man? Didn't think I'd do a lil research did you? He tell you how he went to jail?
Bey: what? He didn't go to jail
I kept my head down, my anger turns to fear. Fuck he's gonna expose the fuck outta me ain't he?
Momma T: Richard! Enough with these ga
He pulls out papers that was on the side of the table. He throws my mugshot pictures in the middle of the table

Richard: *puts glasses on* Lets see-ah-starting a fight in a club and throwing a glass at a man's face for a small insult

Richard: *puts glasses on* Lets see-ah-starting a fight in a club and throwing a glass at a man's face for a small insult.
Chris: it*sighs in fear* it was cause someone offended my girlfriend at the time
Richard: ah oh *flips page* another fight, and another and another. Hmm, and is diagnosed with bipolar disorder which I can t-
I would blow up on him but it's her father. A real once since hers left. I'm embarrassed and haven't been ready to tell her those parts yet.
Chris: thank you all for dinner, I can see I'm not wanted here. You guys have a good night.
They all are shocked and stunned and don't say anything. Just look numb. I stand up and walk twoards the door and grab the keys from the side table and head out the door. I mean, did I blow it? Fuck, how tha hell he dig up my past like that? I don't know what to do. I'm sweating as I get in my car and drive off because I think I might have lost the best woman that makes me breath everyday. Who I love with all my heart and soul. And there's no other woman out there like her. I start panicking and pull up to our house.

 I start panicking and pull up to our house

Beys POV
I'm lost in shock. Do I not know him as well as I thought I did? How much of this is real? I'm so confused. Everyone is quite and we draw blank stares.
Bey: He's not a bad guy, I -
Richard: Daughter, trust me, you don't want him in your life. He's not good for you and I'm seeing a habit now of you picking the wrong men.
Bey: but he'd never hurt me. He's got some issues but-
Momma T: I mean your father has a point. Do you REALLY know him?

 Do you REALLY know him?
