Forever is Perfect

Chapter 26

**NICKI POV**

"Go to daddy niña and tell him you're sorry." I said handing her to Drake.

"Senno" she poked out her bottom lip to him.

*DRAKE POV**

"Yeah yeah. Happy birthday Londyn." I sighed.

"Babe you okay?" Nicki asked.

"Yeah."

"Alright. Ima get in the shower can you take her downstairs to start breakfast?"

At the party we met up with Nicki's friends, it was the first I've seen them since I got out.

We pulled up about 15 mins late and everyone else was already there. Of course Thembi was already helping Nic out the car before I had even turned the car off.

"Nikaaa! I missed you!" she exclaimed pulling Nicki into a hug.

I subconsciously rolled my eyes. Yall saw each other plenty of times but whatever.

I managed to let Thembi take Londyn over to everyone so I could pull Nicki aside alone.

"Whats wrong babe?" she asked.

"Oh you don't know?" I scowled.

"No, did I do something?"

"You tell me."

I watched the tears fall from her eyes but it was too late for me to take anything back. She pushed past me and walked over to where the ladies room was.

I followed her and grabbed her arm before she entered.

She gasped and looked up at me with pure fear in her eyes.

"Please don't hurt me." she pleaded.

I tried to pull her close but she just quivered in my arms.

"I'm sorry. Just don't hurt the baby please." she begged.

Her ptsd..

I sighed, the only way I could calm her down would be to show her Londyn but I know Thembi won't be cooperative.

"Onika look at your phone." I told her, remembering her lockscreen was a picture of her and Londyn a few days ago.

She nodded and looked down at the screen. She touched her stomach then covered her mouth as she began to realize what had just happened.

"You okay?" I asked her.

"Yeah... I think so." she nodded softly and wrapped her arms around me.

I hugged her back. I realized then and there, that nothing was going to be the way we planned before her ptsd and my... issues.

"We can do this." She assured me as if she had been reading my thoughts.

"Come on. We have a party to go to." I kissed her and held her hand as we walked to meet every one else.

"There you two are!" Lauren exclaimed.

"Bes!" Londyn clapped reaching towards Nic.

Nicki grabbed her and gave her a kiss.

"Everything good?" I overheard Thembi say to Nic, then Thembi and Lauren both glanced in my direction.

I was relieved by Nicki's reply.

"Why wouldn't it be?" She cocked her head to the side slightly.

NICKI POV

"Where's Rika? I wanna see the twins." I asked.
