Love Me Tomorrow

Chapter 20

KEIRA:

        Monaé plastered smiles all over her face as she tried on multiple wedding dresses. Trey was in Chicago for the NBA Combine, and Seth was in California as the Golden State Warriors prepare for the playoffs. "Do you like this dress Keira?" Monaé asked as she was in a ball gown like wedding dress. Why am I even here?  "I guess." I mumbled, pretending that I got a text even though I didn't. "Did you want to start looking for your dress?" "Dress? Why do I need a dress?" "Well I wanted you to be a bridesmaid." Hell no! I rolled my eyes. "Monaé why are you guys trying to throw together this wedding in 2 months? Why not just go to the courthouse, get married, then have a big wedding." I suggested. I don't want to be no pregnant bridesmaid.

MONAÉ:

          I see the way Keira is acting and I hate it! I actually like Keira she seems to be a sweet girl and all, and I can't wait to be her sister-in-law, but she's not being positive in this whole ordeal, I think she doesn't want us getting married. "So have you started buying baby clothes?" I asked Keira trying to help change the mood. "Nope. I don't even know where I'm staying." Keira replied. "Have you at least thought of a name?" "Not really. I haven't talked to Trey about it yet. You know he has a lot on his mind. The draft is a couple weeks away." "My wedding is a couple weeks away." I mumbled.

            My phone vibrated and I answered it. "Hello?" I said kinda irrated. "Hey, what's wrong baby?" There's that sexy voice I'm just so crazy about. "Baby, I need you right now." I whined. "Is it Keira again?" I heard the sadness in Seth's voice. "She hates me." "No, she's just trying to take in everything." "She doesn't even want a dress for the wedding." Seth sighed. "I'll talk to her tonight." Seth promised me. I heard his teammates in the background and I knew he had to leave. I hate hanging up, but I have too, my baby has to go do what he loves.

ASHLEE:

        Malik was sitting on the bench as I was walking towards him. He didn't sound right when I was talking to him and I was really nervous. "Malik, is everything okay?" I called out to him. He got up quickly and he kissed right on the lips. I couldn't believe what he just did! "Malik, what the hell you have a girlfriend-" He cut me off with another kiss. "Not anymore. Katia and I broke up." He revealed. I wanted to break out and do a little dance, but I don't think it's quite appropriate at this moment. "Why did you guys break up?" I was curious. Malik rolled his eyes. "She found out about you and me." "How?" "I confessed. Ashlee I didn't want to be with her anymore. I don't want to be with any other girl but you."  Me? He actually feels the same way? I leaned in and kissed him back. "Finally." I mumured making Malik chuckle. Can't wait to tell Keira this.

KEIRA:

         Another baby name book?   Ever since I revealed my pregnancy to everyone, it seems that's all I get. I never thought about names for my children. I was always picturing myself in the WNBA, but that clearly didn't happen. Trey was on webcam with me. He was in his shorts as he was taking an ice bath. He had a long day at the combine, hundreds of NBA scouts grading him, I know he's stress. "So there's not one name that sticks out?" Trey asked. He wants me to come up with a name. "No, but I was thinking about the name Kai." "Kai?" I could tell Trey doesn't like that name. "You don't like that name?" "I like it, but one of my Carruth cousins is named Kai, I don't want to reminded of the Carruths." Trey explained. I sighed. Here we are back at square one.  "What about your mom's name?" Trey suggested.

             That's was what I was thinking. "You wanna name her Noelle?" "Yeah I like it, for her middle name." "So, so far her name is Noelle Carruth?"  I like Noelle Carruth, if it was her first name we could call her Ellie or Nori maybe. "Why do you want it as her middle name?" I asked. "Because I know that you will find another name that you will love." Trey answered. He was so confident, and coincidently the wind turned the page of the baby book and it showed me a name. Briseis.
