Ariela POV

The pictures are finally ready and I am hiding mine in my closet because Marcus never goes in there.

"Alright babe. The kids are downstairs and Darien, Jaleny, Jerome, and Giselle are on babysitting duty." Marcus said walking in to the room.

The gala starts in like 4 hours and you know that I take a while to get dressed.

"What kids are there?" I asked.

"Um, Rochelle, Rayna, Angelica...that's it." He said laying on the bed next to me.

"What would you think about another child?" He asked rubbing my stomach.

"I don't know. Whatever god wants. I wouldn't mind a little one." I said. I kinda miss dressing up my kids. They are all so grown.

"Well, I want another one. We still got a couple more years. We can reach ten." He said smirking. I laughed and smacked his neck.

"Stop. I'm not fit for that. My minimum is 5." I said making him laugh and get up.

"Alright. Get up. You need to start getting ready. I am going to meet up with your brother at the tattoo parlor. I will be back in an hour tops." He said kissing my cheek.

"What are you going to get and where?" I asked getting up and stretching.

"It's a surprise. I'm going to get it behind my ear." He said. That's sound pretty painful.

"You're running out of space babe." I said, taking my hair out the braid it was in.

Marcus already has two sleeves, some on his hands but not a lot, and and his neck. He has his mom's name taking up his chest and our kids names are where his heart is. I think he is addicted.

"It's alright. Next time your going to get one with me."

"No! I hate needles." I screamed.

"Chill ma. I will get it with you. It's not that bad."

"Your ass is immune to it. Just go get your damn tattoo. Be home on time." I said. He gave me a quick kiss then left.

I went in to the bathroom and hopped in to the shower. I shaved and washed my hair. All that took like an hour.

"JALENY!!" I yelled. I lotioned and was putting on my bra and panties when she walked in to my room.

"Yes mommy." She asked sitting on to my bed.

"Help me with my hair?" I asked. She nodded and followed me in to my bathroom. I sat in front of my vanity and she took out all the things she needed. Jaleny does really good hair.

"So how are you and Darien doing?" I asked as she started to put my hair in rollers.

"We are great. Guess what!" She said.

"What?" I asked. This better be a good thing.

"He's staying!" She screamed making me laugh.

"That's good honey but did you ask him if that is really what he wants?" I asked. I know Darien loves Jaleny but it sometimes you have to follow your dreams instead of your heart.

"No...I guess I will ask him but I'm just happy for now." She said finishing up my hair.

I sat down under my dryer and chilled while scrolling through my Twitter. Yes I have one of those salon hair dryers that you sit under. Marcus thinks I'm crazy but it comes in handy.

20 minutes later, I got up and sat back at my vanity. Jaleny started to blow out my hair.

"I'm going to like give you a side bang and then give you spiral curls with your wand." She said. I took a picture of her doing my hair.
