So Much Better

51

There was knocking on the door and I groaned pushing August away so he could open it.

He played dead.

"Bruh, better open that damn door." I muttered.

He clicked his tongue getting up.

"Uncle Aug!"

I heard footsteps coming into the room and opened an eye to see three girls that looked the spit image of August hopping on the bed chatting away.
I lifted my head and found August chatting away with the girls that eagerly told him about the events that had happened since they last met.

I sat up leaning against the headboard as I watched him interract with the girls.

I assumed those were his nieces he talked about so much. He picked them up and played with everyone.

"This is Luiza." He said introducing us and giving me a wink.
"The new Teetee you said we'd have?"
"Yeah."
"Ooh!" They all said at once.
"Hi teetee Iza!" The younger one said hugging me.
"Hi pumpkin." I said hugging her back.

The older one stood aside watching arms crossed. I smiled at her and she ran out of the room bumping into someone.

"Child stop running in your grandmothers house!" She yelled after her. "She's just like him my Lord." She fanned herself and threw her slick hair that flowed down to her waist over her shoulder, her well manicured nails shining. "Hi boy." She chuckled hugging him.
"Hey Chan." He said pulling away.

They went on talking about the girls school and I caught up to who the two younger girls were and what they had as instructions to take care of August.

I nodded impressed at how much they knew about his likings and what not.

"Okay girls lets give them time to get ready and they'll meet us downstairs."

They hugged me tight and ran off.

"I'll see yall in a minute."

We nodded and August locked the door behind her.

"Morning baybeh." He said giving me a peck before going into the bathroom.
"Mawning." I teased him getting off the bed.

He laughed.

"Don't close the door I need to pee."
"Aight." He said closing it.

I rolled my eyes and made the bed waiting for him to leave the bathroom and once I was done I brought a sun dress out the bag with a pair of matching underwear.

I put my slip ons on the the floor and took my make up bag and went into the bathroom.

"It was unlocked the whole time?"
"You asked me not to lock it baybeh."
"No you idiot I asked you not to close it."
"My bad ma."
"Hmm." I said eyeing at him with an attitude.
"Like what you see?"
"Not bad." I shrugged.

He went into the shower and I went on about my morning routine.

Brushing my teeth and my hair.

"August where did you put my head tie?"
"It's still on my wrist." He said from the shower.
"August" I complained.
"Sorry baybeh I forgot."

I shook my head and put my hair down and brushed it again.

"What's the damn point?" I rolled my eyes putting the brush down I'd ruin my hair putting the wet hair tie on it.

I took the shirt off and threw it on the pile along with the rest of clothes and got under the shower.

I pushed August out of the way and got on to what I had to do.

"Cuz you just don't know how to co-exist." He said stepping close again.
"I don't know how to share either." I said putting my arms around him.
"We gon' have some trouble over that."
"Is that so?"

He nodded.

"Cuz I got three girlfriends and they really possessive 'bout their man." He said with a smirk.

I giggled.

"Well if they are who I think they are. I'm sure we can work through it."
"Mhmm." He said leaving the shower.
"Can you handle all of us though?" I asked with a smirk.

He looked over his shoulder and shook his head before wrapping a towel around his waist and leaving the bathroom.

I finished up and went out to the room to get dressed.

I lotioned and put my dress on sitting on the bed to sort through my make up bag to find my foundation when August sat next to me on his phone.

He put it up and nudged me. I hid half my face in my hands and looked at the camera and he took the picture.

I looked at him and gave him a peck.

"I love you."

He smiled and kissed me again.

I got up and put little foundation and pulled a cat eye before going back to where August was.

He pulled me between his legs and I took his face in my hands.

"You ready?"

I pecked him and smiled. I pulled away from him and he pulled me back putting his hands on my waist.

"You're mine, and I'm yours. Right?"

I smiled wide.

"Who elses would I be?" I asked leaning to kiss him.

I kissed him and I could feel him smile before I pulled away.

"Let's go now." I whispered caressing his face as a tear slipped down my cheek. "Your family is waiting."

He nodded put his head down on my chest and exhaled a big breath before getting up holding me up. I giggled and straddled his waist.

"I... I don't even know what to say to you." He said looking at me with the goofiest smile on his face.
"Nothing. Just promise you'll do me right."
"In every way."

I hugged him.

He put me on the floor and I fixed my dress before walking ahead with him behind me, hand on my waist.

Mine. He's mine.

I smiled to myself.
