Picture Perfect

chapter nine

Christopher Maurice Brown

I opened to my eyes to see Kai laying on my chest. She decided she wanted to get to know my mom and Aliana some more. They had their little woman talk while I needed to go down to the studio to work on my 'X' album. When I had got home all of them were laying on the couch sleeping. I helped them all to bed. I gave Kai some clothes to sleep in then she got into the bed. She insisted that I slept in the bed with her and I did. I felt her stirring around in her sleep. I rubbed her back. I felt her head move. I looked down to see her looking down at me.

"Good morning Chris." She greeted.

"Good morning Kai." I greeted with a smile. She leaned up and pecked my lips.

"Eww, morning breath." I said as I scrunched up my face. She laughed and sat up. She straddled me and grabbed my hands. I smiled and leaned up. She leaned down and pecked my lips repeatedly. I kept her attention on kissing me while I grabbed a pillow and hit her on her back. She gasped and shot up from the kiss. She grabbed the pillow from behind me and hit me in the face. I pushed her gently off of me then continued hitting her body with the pillow. She got up on her knees and was hitting me back. We went at it for a good five minutes before we each ran out of breath.

"Why are you breathing so hard?" Kai'lani inquired while she laughed.

"Because I'm out of shape." I admitted.

"We could be workout partners. I got to the gym almost everyday after work." She suggested.

"I'm lazy as hell, I can't do that."

"Yes you can. If you put your mind to something, you can achieve it and I'm going to help you achieve it." She declared. I shook my head and smiled. I didn't say anything else because I knew she really wanted to help me. There was a knock on the door behind it opened. Aliana peeped her head into the bedroom.

"Nia's here." She announced. I nodded and got out of bed. I walked out of the bedroom and downstairs to see Nia talking to my mom.

"Hey Nia." I greeted. She smiled and gave me a hug. Nia and I decided on being co parents and friends. We didn't want our child growing up with two parents fighting on when they get to take him or her.

"Hey Chris, I have the gender results. I rushed over here as soon as I got them to share them with you and your family." She announced.

"Go ahead and read them." I told her. She nodded her head and opened up the envelope. She took the piece of paper out and unfolded it.

"Dear, Ms. Guzman and Mr. Brown. The gender of your unborn child is a girl. Your baby girl is very healthy and kicking! Remember to take your prenatal vitamin and eat right to ensure your child stays this way." She read aloud. She squealed and hugged onto me tightly. I hugged her. I knew my smile was wide and it wasn't going to be dim by anyone. My mom, Aliana and Kai went and hugged on Nia. Kai walked over to me and pecked your lips.

"You're having a baby girl." She smiled.

"I'm so happy." I told her.

"What's going to be my granddaughter's name?" My mom inquired as she rubbed on Nia's stomach.

"We decided on Royalty." Nia smiled. I smiled and rubbed on her belly. She was having my first child, my first daughter. Nothing can top the feeling I'm feeling at this moment.

"What don't you have a seat." My mom offered.

"I'm afraid I can't Ms. Joyce. My daughter just texted me saying she needs to be picked up from soccer practice. I'll see you guys later." Nia said as she walked out of the door. I took a seat and smiled. Kai laid her head on my shoulder and wrapped her arms around my torso.

"I'm so happy for you." She told me as she kissed my cheek.

"I got to start on the nursery now that I know the gender of the baby." I proclaimed. Nia was going to be staying with me for a couple of weeks after the baby is born. I have no problem with it because I want to bond with Royalty as much as possible before we go on our two week co parenting.

"Ooh can I help? It'll be awhile before I have children but I've always wanted to put together a nursery." She told me. I turned and smiled.

"Of course, it'll mean something to me. We can surprise Nia with it at her baby shower which is in two months so we really have to get to it."

"I'll come over everyday after work to help you, I promise. Don't think this is going to get you out of workouts though. After we finish in the nursery, we're going to go work out."

I chuckled, "Okay Major Payne." I joked. She hit my arm and sat between my legs. I kissed her cheek and held her hands.

"Chris, Ty's here." My mom announced. Kai moved from in front of me. I got down from the stool. Ty rushed into the living room and turned the channel.

"Breaking news, Chris Brown's former manager Valerie Walker has leaked a sexual tape between the two. We will keep you updated as details begin to rise." Maria Menounos spoke. I felt the blood in my body rise. Everyone in the room was looking around at each other then at me.

"I swear I'm about to go fuck her ass up." Aliana declared as she walked over to the door but Ty stopped her.

"Wait to do that Liana, we just have to make sure Chris doesn't do it first. Bro are you good?" Ty inquired. I can't say or do anything. It was like my body and mind were overcome with angry so I just stood still. My mom and Ty sat me down on the couch. Kai sat down beside me and grabbed my hand.

"Chris did you know?" Aliana inquired. I shook my head. She recorded us having sex without me knowing. Kai rubbed my arm while Ty was on the phone with someone. Aliana was pacing across the room shouting French obscenities. My mom sat on the other side of me holding my hand. Her and Kai were keeping me from going insane at this moment.

"I just got off the phone with your publicist and she's going to try her best and make his go away. In the meantime, be ready for the paparazzi to be on your ass. If Kai or Aliana is with you, have security and I mean a lot of it because they will try to get to them." Ty advised me. I nodded and wrapped my arm around Kai's waist.

"What if we're alone?" Kai inquired.

"I hope you know how to defend yourself because once your sighted they're going to come at you."Ty told her. She nodded and laid her head on my shoulder. I needed to protect her and the women I love. If something happens to them at the hands of the paparazzi, I'll go insane.

"Kai stay with me until this blows over. I couldn't stomach the thought of something happening to you at the hands of the paparazzi." I suggested.

"Chris I can take care of myself." She stated.

"Kai please." I pleaded.

She sighed, "Are you really that concerned about me?" She inquired.

"Yes Kai, I know how the paparazzi can be so that's why I'm concerned. I don't want anything happening to you." I told her. She nodded and intertwined our fingers.

"I'll stay with you Chris because I see how concerned you are but I'm going to need some clothes and other things from my house."

I smiled, "Okay, let's go get you a couple of things."
