"Merry Christmas!" Karina and Myasia had came inside my room early in the morning jumping on my bed cheerful and anxious to open the presents that Santa left them. "Sissy sissy, YOU HAVE TO GET UP!" Myasia sat down next to me and started shaking me."Sissy Santa brought so much presents!!" Karina put her small face next to mine as I stood up thrown off guard by their sudden wake up. Her cheek touched mine as her small arms rapped around my neck.
"Okay, okay! I'm coming. Let me take a shower and I'll be there. Go wake up everyone else." I instructed and they shook their heads and ran out my room.
I quickly checked my phone and saw that Prince had tagged me in something last night. I had went to bed early so I didn't see it. When I clicked on the post I was surprised to see that he had written a long paragraph with a longer video attached. I started to read and instantly I could feel the tears sting my eyes.
'I just want to say Happy 5 month Anniversary to my heart. I can't even lie and say that when I met you I wouldn't have ever thought we would be here because I knew we would. Something was just different about you from the moment I met you. I honestly love everything about you from the way you sleep with your mouth wide open to the way you stare at your hands when you feel uncomfortable. These past 5 months have been the best months of my life and the day I met you had to be close to one of the best days of my life after having Kaymari. (Even though you dubbed me). This day 5 months ago I met you and this day 5 from years ago we will be married and doing even bigger and better things. I'm not really good at writing things like this but I just wanted you to know that the love I have for you is something different. I would break a jaw for you. You drive me crazy and we been through our own lil thing this year but you my baby and you not going nowhere. I love you Laylani Autumn Davis.'
The paragraph honestly just confirmed my love for Prince even more than it was already. Tears stream down my face as I read and I watched the video attached. The song 'Love Don't Change' played first by Jeremiah and then ' Love and War' by Tamar Braxton. What seemed like hundreds of pictures flipped through the video. Pictures and Videos I didn't even know were being taken. I laughed at the video of me and Prince brushing our teeth at his mothers house early in the morning and a picture of the time he smushed ice creme into my face. There was a picture that Prince had asked King to take of us and we both were kissing and had on our matching Moncler Jackets that Prince had bought for the both of us. All the videos and Pictures made me laugh and cry at the same time. I just felt so blessed at this moment in time.
This was the reason I could overlook everything wrong with Prince. I'm not saying in any way shape or form that Kaymari was what was wrong with Prince but it was a little bit of a challenge for me to except at first. But, after I watched Prince interact with him and how good they were together I couldn't help but fall in love more. I didn't know how it would work or the whole thing would pan out but I loved Prince enough to experience it and find out.
I quickly commented back how much I loved him and that the video brought tears to my eyes and a few responses to specific statements he made.
I got into the shower feeling like this was going to be the best Christmas ever already and I couldn't help but smile the whole time and wonder to myself how I got so lucky. After I opened gifts I would surely go to his house and bless him with his present a long with something else I know he would enjoy...
Nothing could ruin this day. Not Erin and her little slutty antics, not anything. I was feeling like a Princess. Even when I got out the shower and just stared at my reflection I couldn't help but just feel blessed. I knew my mother was watching over me putting all these blessings in my life and I loved her so much for it.
After I got ready, I threw on one of Prince's oversized shirts and a pair of nike sweatpants that read Just Do It on the side and walked into the living room. Everyone was already sitting comfortably around the tree that was stacked and stacked with presents. Karina and Myasia were shaking the presents eagerly trying to figure out what was inside.
"Merry Christmas Lay," My father came over and kissed my forehead. "I love you."
Our relationship had been kind of strained lately so it was extremely refreshing that he could be the bigger person and try to push pash what happened. From his perspective it looked like I had beaten up Erin and then spit on her but he truly didn't know the whole story. I hadn't talked to her since and I knew she was working up her next little evil plan just begging to get fucked up again. She sat down at the kitchen table drinking coffee and talking to Dianna.
It was just so peculiar to me how fucking comfortable she was with the family acting as if she'd known them all her life. Why did she even live here? Her jealous spiteful ass. I tried to push the negative thoughts about my sister out of my head as I wanted to focus on the fact that it was Christmas and so far so good I was having a good day.
"I love you too dad a lot."
We opened presents and I got mostly clothes and money and things of that sort. My father had bought me and Dianna matching Berkin bags and I was greatful but wanted to throw up a little in my mouth at the thought of him shopping for her at all.
Stop. It. Erin. Sometimes I really just wished that ai could slap myself and tell my conscience to shut the fuck up. My whole life I had everything I've ever asked for. Regardless of what happened between me and Erin she WAS deprived of a lot of the things that I was blessed with and that was a understandable reason for her resentment towards me.
After we ate breakfast and Karina and Myasia talked about how this was the best Christmas ever the whole time I started to get ready for the day. It was Christmas but Prince had wanted to exchange gifts and told me to come by when I got a chance. I just wanted to see my baby so bad, even though I saw him a few days ago I missed him so much.
I drove over to his new apartment that was already pretty much furnished and I was so excited. As soon as he opened the door I jumped into his arms and rapped my legs around his waste kissing his lips repeatedly as he laughed. The video he had made went viral and millions of people saw it and within less than 24 hours it already had 40k likes.
"Merry Christmas Baby," He mustered as he struggled to pull something out of his back pocket with my legs around his waste. I let go so I could fully see the little box with a bow on it.
"What is it? What is it?" I asked excited.
"Open it and see feen bucket." He joked. I unwrapped the little box and saw a little navy blue box that read tiffany & co. I opened the box to see a small little ring and my heart started to beat a mile a minute. Was he about to purpose?!
"It's a promise ring." Whew! My pulse slowed at his words because I was way to young to get married. "I love you Lay. I don't know how much I can say this but I just want this ring to be a symbol that I will always love you and be loyal to you. It may sound like I'm stretching it but as long as I live, I just want to be yours. We young now but we gonna get married one day and floss harder than we already flossing."
I was such a baby. Every sweet thing that came out of Prince's mouth brought tears to my eyes.
"Princeeeee," I dragged his name and hugged him tightly around his neck. "I love you and I always will."
"Merry Christmas Baby." He said as he wiped my tears and kissed my forehead.
"Merry Christmas My Love."
