Tierra POV
"Im so proud of my best friend everyone here can agree to how hard she has worked to get this far" Toya said as we all stood in my new salon 'Beauty shop inspired by the movie.
"Shes just about 2 kids in and only 18 and now owns her own salon she really out here doing the damn thing and I'm proud" Toya said.
I smiled as we all held up our glasses.
"So cheers to one of the baddest in Chicago" she said.
"Cheers" we all said and drank our drinks.
Everyone had champagne while I had sparkling cider.
Taj walked over holding Titan.
"My baby" I said taking him.
"You don't need to be holding his ass while you pregnant" he said rubbing my belly.
I handed him my glass and he took it.
I kissed Titans lips.
"This is all for you and your brother Papa" I said to him.
He laid his head on my shoulder.
"He played that hard today, it's only 7" I said.
"I told you I was gonna run him around so he can go to sleep early" Taj said.
I rolled my eyes.
People came over and congratulated me. I only had close family and friends here I wanted this to be more intimate.
We all stood and hung around for about an hour before I closed and we all left.
Taj drove us so instead of my place we went to his since it was closer.
"These shoes were killing me" I said taking off my heels once I got into the house.
"I don't know why you wore them" he said closing and locking the front door as he held Titan.
"They looked good with my outfit" I said.
I went to his room while he got Titan ready for bed.
I took a shower and as I was getting out he got in. I did my night routine and went and kissed my baby good night as he laid in his crib asleep.
I went back to the room and got in bed and turned the tv on.
Taj got out and left out the room and came back.
"I'm surprised you ain't bring him in here" he said getting into bed.
"I can't bend down and pick him up" I said.
He rubbed on my stomach and kissed it.
"Come on so I can rub your feet" he said.
"Yes" I said and placed my feet in his lap.
I laid against the pillows rubbing my belly as he rubbed my feet.
"Mm" I moaned it felt so good.
I watched him take my foot and kiss it before rubbing them some more.
"Tierra" he said looking at me.
"Yes" I said.
"You know I love you" he asked.
"You say it all the time" I said.
He nodded.
"And you know I want to be with you and we two kids in now" he said.
"We are" I agreed.
"Tierra I want you to be my girlfriend" he said as I started dosing off.
"Mm hm" I said.
"Tierra" he said.
"Huh" I asked.
"Did you hear me" he asked.
"Yes and I said okay" I said tiredly.
"Okay what" he asked.
I looked at him "okay Taj I'll be your girlfriend now can I go to sleep. I been on my feet all day while carrying your heavy ass son" I said.
"You serious or you just saying that so I can leave you alone" he asked.
"I'm serious" I said.
He smiled looking every bit of Titan even with the one dimple.
He leaned over and kissed me. "I love you" he said.
"I love you too" I said.
He took my legs off of him laying them straight and he scooted closer to me and I laid my head on his chest.
I closed my eyes feeling him kiss my forehead.
"Deuce I think I finally wore her down" he said rubbing my stomach.
The next day
Taj dropped me off at work since I had two clients. So far I hired 2 hairstylist Sasha and Chyna and then a nail tech named Kari.
I finished my first client which was just a silk press and I sat in my seat waiting for my next.
"So how far are you mamas" Chynas client asked.
"Girl 7 months" I said rubbing my stomach.
"Oh you'll be ready to drop soon what you having" she asked.
"A little boy" I smiled.
"I have three they are definitely easier" she said.
"I heard I want a girl eventually at least one to experience a little me" I said.
"How was your attitude because I swear they get that from you but on steroids" she said.
"Oh God I hope not my attitude was off the charts" I said.
"Ooh girl well be prepared" she said.
My last client came in and I did her wig install once she paid and left Taj came and got me.
"I won't be in the shop much longer. I was barely able to stand through the whole wig install I did today" I said.
"I told you take it easy" he said rubbing my thigh as he drove.
"and why he not in his car seat" I asked Taj seeing Titan laid out on the backseat.
"He wanted to lay down he kept crying about the seatbelt hurting his neck. You see he still buckled though" he said.
"You better drive carefully" I said.
"I gotta get another car I'm thinking about a truck with the way we having kids" he said.
"Trust this the last one for a while" I said.
"You just better stay on that shot" he said.
"Believe me I am" I said.
We got to my house and got out and he got Titan out. He put him in his room and I went to mine.
I changed to tired to even jump in the shower.
"Damn baby them 4 hours was that bad" Taj asked seeing me in bed.
I nodded.
He came over and kissed me twice before taking off his clothes leaving him in just his boxers.
He got in bed and held me from behind. I felt him rub on my stomach as we laid in bed.
"Was he good for you today" Taj asked kissing my shoulder.
"Yea he was moving around a lot when I would sit down but he did pretty good" I said yawning.
He started to talk about something else but I could barley make out shit but a few random words.
