I watched as the girls colored the paper and the finished project looked as if a unicorn had puked up a rainbow. I had the girls put the cards up someplace safe, so they wouldn't get messed up.
It's now 7:00 pm and I had to put the girls to bed, but before I did, I gave them their gifts from me. Of course they loved it, but I was upset because I believed that Shawn was going to come but he didn't. I started walking out of the girl's bedroom when Melody stopped me
"He didn't come." She said referring to Shawn
"Pray to God. Tonight and maybe he'll show up tomorrow." I smiled as I turned to walk out; as I shut the door I heard Melody
"Dear Jesus. I really want to see my father. So if you hear me. Would you please bring him here tomorrow. Amen." I nearly cried my heart out listening to her.
I quickly tip-toed upstairs, careful not to wake the girls. Once I got to my room I texted Vivica and Shawn.
Me: Viv I know it's ur day off.
but I need u 2 come now.

Vivica: k

Me: thnx.

Then I had to text Shawn and I had to do my best to not show my anger.
Me: meet me @ my
mum's @ 8

Shawn: k

Me: thnx.

I reached for Shawn's leather jacket, but Soxs wouldn't get off it so I grabbed Shawn's Vans sweatshirt and put Soxs in the pocket.
I tip-toed back downstairs and into my car. When I pulled out of the driveway Vivica was walking into the house. I drove away as quickly as I could.
Once I reached my mum's house, I didn't even go in so I didn't wake her up. I got out of my car and sat on the steps. I stuck my hand in the pockets of the hoodie to pet Soxs. I was sitting on the steps for a while so I decided to check the time: 9:00 Shawn's late. I wanted to wait for Shawn, if he was coming. I was gazing up at the stars when I heard tires squealing and I shot straight up. Two headlights were coming towards me, maybe it was finally Shawn. The car stopped and the headlights dimmed until they were off and the driver door opened, letting out a tall and muscular figure. I stood up, so I could see better and the figure ran up to me
"What's so important?" It was Shawn "I just wanted to tell you the girl's only birthday wish." I said nearly in tears remembering what Melody had said. "What is it?" he asked, brushing my tears dry with his thumb
"All they want is. Is to see you. Tomorrow." I said crying really hard now
"Really? I thought-." He started
"I was thinking if you come home tonight. And we wake up early then we can surprise them." I start to smile at my own well thought plan "Deal?" I say sticking out my shaking hand for him to take it
"Deal!" He says, grabbing my hand and pulling me close. When my hoodie touches him, he quickly jumps back
"What?" I ask, having completely forgotten about Soxs
"Something just rubbed against me!" He says trying to catch his breath "There's nothing in my pockets." I say as he reaches in and pulls out Soxs "Really?" He smiles, petting Soxs.
I got back in the car and met Shawn back at the house. We got to the door and slightly knocked on it, Vivica opened the door to let us in as she left. I grabbed Shawn's hand as I led him to the girl's bedroom; I opened the door ajar, just enough for us to stick our heads in. I looked up at Shawn, who's smiling the worlds biggest smile.
I walked upstairs with Shawn right behind me.
"So the girls wanted to see me?" He asks while getting in bed.
"Yes." I simply answered
"So this wasn't just your idea?" I looked down at the floor "Remind me again. Why didn't you tell me when you were pregnant with Naomi and Melody?" He said causing me to look up
"I was afraid that it would ruin your career. And I. Well. I-I thought you would leave me alone." I confessed as a small tear rolled down my cheek "Sky. Do you love kids?" He asked kind of changing the subject
"Yes." I got into bed, resting my head on his chest
"How many is too much for you to handle?" He asked with an arm around me
"I can't handle more than twenty five at one time." I yawned
"We should have one more." He said in a serious tone
"We should have one more what?"
"A baby. I wasn't there for Naomi and Melody. I want to be there for another one. Please." My eyes widened as I was trying to put two and two together
"You want another baby?" I asked pulling my head off his bare, muscular chest as he nodded his head "Go to sleep Shawn." I said letting him hear me chuckle
"No. Not until we have another baby." He wined
"Fine. Tomorrow night." I said as his brown/hazel eyes stared into mine "Okay. Okay. Tonight." I laughed as a smile played on Shawn's lips.
