The Dash Life

Rachel Roy vs Aaliyah

Friday Morn.

Aaliyah was running laps around their large backyard, with her puppies Milly and Jynxy. "Y'all ain't tired?" she asked them laughing. Damon came out.

"There you are, been looking for you!" He chuckled, Aaliyah took out her earplugs and took breaths, after she stopped running, and walked towards him.

"Yeah sorry babe, you were sleep and I---Decided to take the dogs out for some exercise. I feel I been lacking." Damon chuckled.

"I can't tell, those abs savage, you okay though?" He drank some of his water, passing it to her to drink, she swallowed.

"Yeah, I'm adjusting back in LA life I guess, it's a struggle but, easy come easy goes.." He nodded in relief, they been moving things in the last two weeks and been annoying for the both of them. He took her by the waist to go inside.

Aaliyah whistled for her puppies and they came running inside, after Damon slid the door open. Aaliyah took a deep sigh, clapping her hands.

"So what's the agenda today babe? We're just about done packing, and I just need to set up my closet more."

Damon rubbed the back of his neck. "Ava's coming over for the weekend, is that okay with you baby?" Aaliyah narrowed her eyebrows

"Yeah of course it is, been so long since I seen that princess, what time? So I can prepare?." She drank a water she got out of the fridge.

"Mm like around 3 ish?" Aaliyah swallowed and nodded "kay, is she?..." Aaliyah threw her hand out referencing Rachel. Damon bit his lip.

"Yeah, but just so we can discuss how the fuck we're doing this.." Aaliyah sighed and threw her hand on the table. "I know you don't wanna put up with her babe, shit I don't either but I gotta see what this schedule working out.."

He went up to her rubbing her arms. Aaliyah nodded and kissed him, "I know!! I just don't wanna have nothing to do with her. So, I'll be upstairs the whole time while you guys flush out that has to be done!! I understand, don't worry!!"

She said rubbing up and down his chest. Damon leaned down and kissed her again, "Okay, just making sure you're okay!!" Aaliyah gave a half smile and nodded. He sighed throwing his over his head, as he prepared to get ready for hell. "Good luck!!" Aaliyah said bout to do the same.

Aaliyah went upstairs, smiling as Milly was right behind her and she bent down to scoop him up. "Following mommy huh? You gonna help me?"....

She showered quickly and then brushed through her wet hair as she walked into her huge closet that Damon had made sure would be custom designed, just like the one in New York.

She smiled at seeing it, along with all of her labeled boxes on the floor, trying to see the glass as half full and not half empty.....

Damon made a last minute run to the grocery store to get some stuff fur his wife and daughter, wanting Ava to have all of her favorites and wanting the same for Aaliyah, even just getting her donuts to how her that he cared.

Just as she was putting everything away, the alarm sounded, alerting him someone was at their gate. He looked at the security camera in the hallway of the main level to see Rachel's SUV and he pressed the button to open the gate.

Truthfully he didn't even want her inside their home or on their property but they had some things they needed to talk about and he was trying with all he had to be cordial and respectful.....

Before they could even ring the doorbell, Damon went to open the front door, and caught Rachel staring at the exterior of their mansion, and with envy in her eyes and it made him irritated.
