No One:

As Selena lay in her bed accompanied with Dalvin and his hand on her stomach. Every since she decided to give Dalvin another chance which was 3 days ago, not that long ago. He's been trying hard he's the man for her. Tionne really appreciated Selena of forcing Dalvin to take care of their daughter Kendra. But now Selena wanted to do right by all means as much as she can.

"Mmm.", Selena said as she shifts

"Good morning baby.", Dalvin said as he kissed Selena cheek but not moving

"Good morning Dal.", Selena smiled as she stretches her legs

"How's the little peanut.", Dalvin ask

"Good-um Dalvin I'm hungry you mind making me something to eat.", Selena ask

"Of course baby-be right back.", Dalvin said pecking Selena on the lips as he hurried to the kitchen

Selena loved the attention from Dalvin. Well she loved attention in general. But Dalvin was making her heart swell. She wish she could've did this with DeVante. But she was certain he was never coming back around and she was all to blame for it.

As Selena slipped her slippers that Dalvin bought. She did her morning routine. She didn't work out which made her morning easier. But she did the regular and so she made her way downstairs of her Texas home. Once she arrive in the kitchen she was greeted with a delicious smell.

"Good lord that smiles so good.", Selena said while smiling

"Thank and here you go my dear.",Dalvin smiled as he place Selena breakfast in front of her

"Thank you Dalvin.", Selena smiled as she looked down at the pancakes, eggs, grits and sausages on her plate

"Selena I got a question to ask you.", Dalvin said gently

"What is it.", Selena said as she was distracted by eating the delicious food

"I want you to be apart in Jodeci new video.", Dalvin said which caused Selena to look up

"What's the video call.", Selena ask

"Love you for life, like after you give birth to the baby you can maybe you know.", Dalvin said

"I get it and I'll think about it.",Selena nod

"For real.", Dalvin smiled as he drank his orange juice

"Yes for real.", Selena giggled which caused Dalvin to smile

As Dalvin and Selena ate their breakfast while talking and laughing. In New York Dalvin brother DeVante sits in his home drinking. He haven't talked to his kids in a while. Nor his parents he isn't even on speaking terms with Dalvin and not Selena either.

"Mr. DeGrate don't you think you should slow down.", DeVante assistant say with her voice has a lace of concerned

"I'm fine.", DeVante slurred while holding a bottle of vodka

"Ok.", DeVante assistant sighed as she left

He was losing it. He was losing everything, his rep, his cool, his family, his temper and all. He needed to think of a plan quick. But he didn't know what to do. I couldn't go to Selena. He refuse too. To DeVante Selena was nothing but a pushover now. To him that was something she needed to change about herself

Selena:

I clean up the house since I had nothing to do. Dalvin left to hang out with K-CI and JoJo. But I was glad my girls stop by to keep me company.

"Selena what you doing.", Lashawn asks

"Cleaning?", I say confuse that she ask me that

"Yeah and why your pregnant don't worry about the house girl.", Lashawn say as she sits me down on the couch

"I'm fine.", I smile as I stand back up

"Ok um I know it's not me who notice this but Selena your leaking.", Missy says as Aaliyah and Lashawn look over quickly as I look down

"Um She's not leaking.", Aaliyah say while starting to panic

"Oh my god, my water just broke.", I say as Lashawn quickly grab a town for me

"Girl we about to take you to the hospital.", Lashawn and Aaliyah say

"I'll call Dalvin and ya family.", Missy says

No One:

As Aaliyah and Lashawn loads Selena into the truck with Missy. Missy is steady on the phone trying to reach Dalvin.

"Missy why you blowing my phone up.", Dalvin say

"Boy meet us at the hospital Selena water broke.", Missy say hanging up completely

As they arrive at the hospital. All 3 of the girls help Selena into the hospital. Where Selena is already greeted by her family doctor Dr. Lewis. Dr. Lewis take Selena into the baby unit as soon as possible.

Selena:

A lay in my hospital bed breathing fast. I didn't know what to do. Dr. Lewis say the baby is ready to come out. As I lay my head down on the soft white pillow and I sigh.

"Selena.", Dalvin say as he busts through the door

"Sir you can't-.", Dr.Lewis start

"I'm the father.", Dalvin say as he goes towards me and holds me hand

"Selena you ready.", Dr. Lewis say as I nod fast

"Aw man.", Dalvin smile

"Just push for us.", Dr. Lewis tell me and I do as I told

No One:

In the hall Aaliyah, Lashawn, Missy, JoJo, and K-CI all pace around the hallway. They are all excited to welcome the newcomer.

"Man who do you think the baby gonna look like.", K-CI says excitedly

"It's parents.", Lashawn say rolling his eyes

Selena:

As I push really hard. I hear the noise of a baby wailing. My heart flutters when I hear the sound.

"Here you go mommy and daddy it's a boy.", Dr. Lewis say as he swaddle the baby up after Dalvin cuts the cord and he hands the baby to me

"My god.", Dalvin says while smiling
