Dimitri up top☝🏾️

Guys I just noticed that I completely messed up the names for Daniel and David! Super sorry for the mix up and if there was any confusion! David is actually a character for a new book that I'll be starting, and since I'm working on this book and that one, I kinda got the names mixed up! But Daniel is the correct name instead of David! Alright?

Anyways sorry for any errors! Enjoy!

The next morning...

Five am..

Grayson's POV

Mmmm mmmm... Mmm mmmm..

I wake up from the sound of my phone vibrating, from the alarm I set last night, and quickly turn it off, not wanting to wake Nelly so early. Then I slowly and quietly creep out of bed and freeze when I hear her whimper from the lost of contact and reach her hand out to where I was previously laying. Thinking quickly, I slide back in bed behind her and wrap my arms around her waist again. This might be harder than I thought...

I kiss her neck softly and whisper in her ear,"Nelly.. Baby... Baby.. Baby girl..." She saids, still sleeping,"Yeah baby?.." I peck her neck again and say,"I'm getting ready to go. I'll be back in a minute okay?" She barely nods and say tiredly,"Okay Gra...Grayson.." I smile to myself and kiss her cheek, then slowly pull away from her and get out of the bed and head for the bathroom to get ready.

Seven minutes later...

After doing my hygiene and changing into a black sweatshirt with a T-shirt underneath, gray joggers, and a pair of Nikes, I walk out of the closet and jump seeing Nelly sitting up on the bed asking,"Where you goin' Gray?" I run my fingers through my hair nervously and say,"Geez baby you scared the hell out of me.." She saids with her arms folded across her chest,"My bad. Now where are you goin' Grayson?"

I stuff my hands in my pockets and say, deciding that lying to her would be stupid and just cause more trouble,"Umm I asked Daniel to meet up with me, so we can discuss what to do about this whole Peter situation. Just to get some more information on him." She gets up from the bed and say,"Well alright, I'll come too-" I say quickly as I walk up to her,"No no that's fine baby girl. I got this alright? Besides, you don't even need all this stress. Please just let me handle this one."

She sucks her teeth and purse her lips to the side asking,"Hmm, is that it?" I raise my eyebrow in confusion and place my hands on her waist asking,"What do you mean baby?" She folds her arms across her chest again and look me straight in the eyes asking,"Is that the only reason you don't want me to come with you Grayson?" Shit! I can't lie to her.

I say,"Just about.." She sighs and look down for a brief second then look back up at me and ask softly,"What is that supposed to mean Grayson?" I instantly pull her closer to me, sensing her pregnancy hormones coming on and knowing I'll just wind up staying here if I see her cry, I say,"Listen baby girl, I don't want you to be there because you honestly don't need the stress. I'm gonna be honest with you, this won't just be a sweet talk. You know how aggressive I can get.. I just don't want you to be there for all that princess, that's all. I won't completely lose it though, alright?"

She bites her lip, thinking about it for a minute, then look up at me and ask,"You won't lose it?" I nod assuringly and say,"I won't." She nods and stay silent for a second, then say,"Promise me." I pause for a second, then chuckle and say, as I start planting kisses on her forehead, cheeks, nose and lips,"I. Promise. You. I. Will. Not. Lose. It. Baby girl." She smiles up at me in return and kiss my cheek saying,"Alright then. I guess I'll see you later."
