"If I hear that damn bell one more time." Beyoncé thought in her head as she heard her son ring the bell.

She wanted to strangle Kelly for that stupid ass idea.

"Mama!" Messiah yelled.

"What?!" Beyoncé yelled.

"Can you please bring me some water!" He yelled.

Beyoncé got up and went downstairs to grab a water out fridge and went back upstairs.

She went into Messiah's room and handed it to him.

"Thank you." He said.

"You're welcome." She said and then looked down at her watch. "I'm gonna come back in an hour to help you get ready okay."

"Yeah." He said and nodded.

Beyoncé went into her room to shower and get ready. The girls had a photo shoot they already canceled once so today was the day they had to do it.

Beyoncé wore jeans and a white t-shirt. Something simple since she would end up changing at the shoot anyway.

She heard the doorbell and left her room to get that. She opened the door and Nicki was standing there.

"Nicki!" Beyoncé yelled and hugged her. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too." She said walking in. "How's Messiah?"

"A bit better." she said closing the door.

They went into the living room to sit down.

"I've tried to clean up the tabloids as best as I could." Nicki started.

"Nah, it is what it is." Beyoncé said. "Everybody done made up a story. I've let it go. My mama the one that's really mad."

"Damn, Ms. Tina mad is not a good sign." Nicki said.

"It is not." Beyoncé said getting up. "I gotta get Messiah ready and then we can go."

"Okay," Nicki said as Beyoncé went up the steps.

Beyoncé walked into Messiah's room and didn't see him.

"Messiah!"

"Yeah." He said from the bathroom.

"You good? You don't need my help?" She asked.

"No, I'm good."

"Okay."

Beyoncé went back downstairs with Nicki. Nicki looked at her.

"He said he didn't need my help." She said sitting on the couch.

"Mr. Independent." Nicki said.

"Basically." She said as they sat on the couch and waited.

Eventually Messiah made his way downstairs.

"Ma, I left my backpack upstairs." He said as he stood at the entrance of the living room.

"Alright," she said standing. "I'll get it and we can go."

Beyoncé went upstairs to get his backpack and hers. She walked back downstairs and they were ready to go.

Soon the my arrived at a studio to take the pictures. Beyoncé walked in with Nicki and Messiah.

She was greeted by the photographer and his assistant. They showed her the room where she was getting ready and Kelly and Michelle were already there. The photographer left them with hair and make up.
