Chapter 1: The Slip Up

Chapter 6: Got Game?

Nicki look at sb. she remembered the twinkle he always had. because sb had been in a comma he didnt remember the night of the accident nor did he remember what happened prior to that. although sb was still in his hospital robe Nicki still thought he looked as fine as she rememebered. she lowered he eyes and looked down at his butt. she always thought he had a perfect butt for a man she smirked thinking about when they would play and she would smack it. sb smiles when he saw nicki. although nicki was happy to see he was doing better she couldnt hide her hurt. she smiles back at him but not her normal bright smile she always had. this smile had pain in it that showed in her eyes. she waved and turned to leave. as she went to leave sb called out. "Babe where you going? you alright?" nicki hated that he noticed everything about her. "im fine i hope you feel better we have some things we need to talk about though" Nicki turned back around to resume walking. she had so many mixed emotions running through she didnt know which one to follow. as nicki went on the elevator to return to her ride she shed a few tears. Knowing that breaking up with sb was going to be hard but she knew she had to do it. She couldnt take the pain of him hurting her any longer.

She headed to the stupid she thought she could release some stress in the booth. She used the beat to Marvin's Room by Drake and made her own. She just went into the booth with no pad or no pen and began singing.

"feeling uncomplete, I thought no one could compete, I guess I was wrong cause, I guess she gave better love and Im hurt inside, my tears I could not hide, how could he lie, giving up on this fight, fuck that old bitch that you already had, she messed up the first time but you went right back, im just saying it cant better, I cant be mad with her because you let her." With tears in her eyes Nicki sang better then ever had before. All she could think about was her touching what she thought belonged to her. She took her headphones off and called Drake. She didnt get an answer but decided to text him instead.

"hey are you busy i need to meet up my place at 7 if you can"

She put her phone down and hung her head. She was trying everything in her power not to cry. She knew a vist to her moms would help her regain her strength. She deleted the song before she left so it wouldnt get leaked. She grabbed her pen and paper to write a new song while waiting for her ride.

Soon her phone buzzed and stopped her train of thought.It was Drake.

"I will be there I hope everything is okay :)" She half smiled at the text. She liked that he cared for her and could sense her hurt.

A tap on the door came Nicki knew it was her driver so she grabbed her bag and followed the driver down stairs.

"Make any more good music" The driver said with a small chuckle. He had been her driver for along time

Nicki exhaled big "Hopefully! I needed to go release som stress."

"I understand, hows the boy doing" the driver said opening the door for her.

"He was fine, in theropy so i guess hes getting better" Nicki said climbing into the car.

The driver now entering the car."Thats good tell him I asked about him the next time you go see hime, where too lady?"

"I think I need to visit my mommy today"

"Alright lady" the driver said and then drove to Moma Carrol's house.

Nicki relaxed and enjoyed the ride. She had alot on her mind, her career, her relationship and most importantly her future. They arrived at the house Nicki got for her mother. Nicki knocked on the door and rang the doorbell. She wanted her mom to open the door quicklyespecially because she didnt call to let her know she was on the way. Moma quickly opened the door when she saw it was Nicki she lit up with a big smile. They had the same smile. They hugged for a long time still smiling. They went in the house and when straight to the kitchen. Moma put on some tea and sat beside her.

"Whats going on baby, whats the trouble" Moma said with a smirk on her face because she knows Nicki so well.

Nicki hung her head"Mom everything is falling apart and you know I've never been a quitter but I dont know anymore mom i just dont know."

"Do you love him?"Moma said.

"Huh? Who?" Nicki said looking up at her mom in disbelief.

"The boy Safaree?"Moma said looking into Nicki's big brown eyes.

"I do but he hurt me, he hurt me bad, i over heard him and her kissing, he was at her house on the phone with me. I swear at times people forget i have feelings. I dont know its just alot i need a break." Nicki said shrugging her shoulders feeling defeated'

Moma got up and made Nicki a cup or tea and poured one for herself.

"Maybe you need a break" Moma said looking at Nicki with a straight face.

"Maybe" Nicki said shrugging her shoulders and sipping her tea. Just then Nicki's phone vibrated. She grabbed it off the counter, it was Drake texting her letting her know he was on the way. Nicki looked up at the tv and turned to the news. She looked at the time that read 7:38pm. She took a big gulp of her hot tea.

"Mom I gotta go I love you"Nicki said kissing her cheek.

"Alright baby I love you too dont forget what i said"

"Alright mom" Nicki giggled and walked out the door. She got in the car and told the driver to head to her home. She wanted to make it there before Drake but was too late. As she pulled up to her house drake was waiting inside of his Benz. Nicki stepped out of the truck and smiled when she saw Drake getting out of the car. He smiled back. They walked to her door and Nicki used her key to open it. Drake sat down Nicki's love seat. Nicki sat beside him. She liked teasing Drake since she knew he had a crush on her. She thought it was cute to make him blush. And he did and she giggled and played in his hair.

"How you doing babe?" Nicki looked at his lips as he talked. She always realized how attractive he was but today he was better looking then before. "I been good, living I guess normal stuff, how about you?"Drake said.

"Im fine everythings okay, I called you over cause you always been here for me to talk to." Nicki said.

"Tell me whats on your mind." Drake said relaxing preparing to hear Nicki rant.

Nicki began ranting like she always did with Drake, she felt so comfortable with him. Drake listened and give Nicki some good advise telling her that her mom might be right that she needs a break. Nicki smiled and tried to lighten the mood. She pulled out some cards and made a bet with him.

"If I win you gotta make me some of your famous pasta." Nicki said with a hungry tummy. She loved Drake's cooking. He blushed "Alright thats a deal i can to that but what do i get if i win?" Drake said with a smirk.

"Umm what do you want?" Nicki said playfully batting her eyelashes.

Drake hesitated "You!"

It was a slight pause. "Woah babe over a game of cards? Lets make a smaller bet."

Drake smiled "Alright alright how about a kiss?" Drake said hoping she would fall for this one.

Nicki acted like she was thinking but already made up her mind. "Ummm hmmmm Alright we can do that."

They began playing Poker best 3 out of 5. They were tied up at two games a piece. It was the last hand and Drake won.

"Time to pay your dues." Drake smiles big waiting to get his kiss.

"Alright a deals a deal I guess." Nicki walked closer to Drake and kissed his lips soft. They both paused. Drake looked into Nicki's eyes and she looked into his. She couldnt believe how good the little peck was. His lips felt so soft and fit perfectly with hers. For a while they stayed there looking in each others eyes.
