After taking me a good shower, I walk out the bathroom in only a towel. To catch Tatiana eyeing me slyly, when she tries to front and act like she's reading the book she was holding open. She had her reading glasses pushed down her face, looking like an middle-aged librarian, but still a sexy one. I hold my towel up with one hand, as I make my way over to her. She sets her book and reading glasses off to the side, as I sit down beside her on the bed. Xavier was already put to bed, and Tatiana wanted to stay up until I left for work. Which I appreciated, because a wanted some kisses before I left.

"You smell good," she says while crawling up to me, before I help her onto my lap. She leans into my neck and sniffs me like a weirdo, causing me to chuckle. "What, I love your cologne so much," she whimpers.

"I like it too, but not as much as you obviously do," I laugh, causing her to slap my chest playfully, as she sits up to look into my eyes.

"So, your gonna see a lot girls tonight aren't you," she hits me with, and I start shaking my head. She still don't trust me.

"Yes, but when I'm looking at them, I'll be thinking of you," I say with a smirk.

"You don't have permission to look at them smartass," she commands, taking charge, making me wanna bend her over this bed and forget about work altogether.

"Its my job though," I tease.

"Ok keep talking," she laughs. "Your job is not to stare at girls all night. So, don't do it."

"I won't, because you my baby, and I love you," I say sincerely. "I'll see you in the morning, ok?"

"No," she cries, while clutching onto me tightly. I wrap my arms around her with a huge smile, because I could feel the love. "I don't think I'll be able to sleep without you holding me in your arms."

"You'll be ight, I'll be back by the time you wake up in the morning to get Xavier ready for school," I assure her, hoping that'll be enough for her to let me finish getting ready for work.

"Ok I guess," she groans, while sliding off to the side of me dramatically. Flopping onto the bed, refusing to look up at me, like I did something that pissed her off.

"Baby don't be like that," I say while getting to my feet. She still refuses to look at me, as she crawls up to the headboard, and throws herself on one of our pillows.

"I'm fine," she lies, causing me to lay down beside her, and pull her into my arms. She snuggles into my neck with a tired smile, as I casually look over to the clock that was resting on the nightstand. I was about to be late, but it didn't really matter cause Tatiana is more important than some job. "I don't wanna make you late Mike," she yawns, lying again, because she wasn't tryna let me make it to work in the first place.

"You already did, but its koo, cause ima stay until you fall asleep," I say, before planting a gentle kiss on her forehead. "You lucky you my baby," I say playfully, waiting for an answer but it never comes. Instead I hear her start snoring soundly, letting me know that she finally fell asleep. Which was good, cause that means I won't be that late for work.

I gentle lay her down, and climb out of bed, before pulling the covers over her. Finally able to head over to my closet to pull out my work clothes. Once I was dressed, I grab my phone and my keys, before springing out the front door.

Once I walk in through the back of this club named Crystal Diamondz, I instantly hear Rihanna's new song Work. That song is starting to drive me crazy, especially since they play it almost everyday on the radio. Plus, of course Tatiana likes it, and she likes to play songs on repeat, so she can learn the words.
