Shawn POV

I buttoned up the rest of my shirt and fixed my sleeves before heading into the bathroom. Today is my birthday and also the night of my party. I can't lie I'm excited, after almost dying I just want to celebrate reaching 28 years of life with my family and friends, but most importantly my baby.

"Your best friend just text you" Bey says entering the bathroom. I roll me eyes knowing who she is talking about but also that she is being petty.

"Babe why aren't you dressed? We need to be leaving the house in 30 minutes to make it on time"

"Your daughter is kicking the hell out of me, so excuse me if I'm moving to slow for your liking" she says frustrated.

I place my hands on Bey's stomach and feel her kicking around. "Baby girl can you please stop kicking mommy so we won't be late to daddy's party?" The kicks soon come to an end and I smile. "She's a daddy's girl already"

Bey swats my hands off her stomach and laughs. "Boy bye. Go check and make sure Nahla is dressed while I get ready"

I nod my head and peck Bey's lips before heading to Nahla's room.

"Hi daddy" Nahla says looking up from her tablet.

"Hi baby. You look beautiful but why aren't you wearing the dress daddy laid out for you?"

She stood up to give me a full view of her outfit. "This is prettier don't you think?"

I sigh. "It is but the party has a black theme"

"I don't like black. It doesn't compliment me well"

"You have definitely been around your mother for too long" I laugh at her. "Okay baby find a jacket to wear because it's cold outside"

She nods her head and then goes back to whatever she is doing on her tablet. I head back into the room and check my phone.

Lo 👩🏾‍⚕️: do I HAVE to wear black tonight?

I laugh. Why is everybody having a problem with my choice of color?

Me: yes Logan it is an all black party

Lo 👩🏾‍⚕️: 🙄 ugh fine, I'll see you later

I check my watch and see we have about 15 minutes before we leave. I grab my shoes and put them on completing my outfit. Seeing the full outfit I look good as hell if I do say so myself.

"Babe can you hand me my shoes?" Bey asks, I head to the closest to get her shoes, as I'm bringing them back I look up to see her looking at me biting her lip
