Beyoncé sat on the passenger's side of the rental car they borrowed to drive to her parents house for Christmas. The car was parked in the drive way with the engine on. She waited their patiently for Justin, Solange and Daniel. As she sat there, she could feel the baby moving. He was pretty strong. Kicking like an athlete. The times when he was most active were during sex and while she was eating.
She sat back, automatically watching her husband step outside and on the patio. He stood there chatting away with her father about God knows what. "But we'll be back New Year's, for sure. IF we have nothing planned. I doubt it though." He stepped aside, allowing Solange to exit the house with her things. "Any way, I should go. I don't wanna piss her off. She's been...catching attitudes so easily." He added, glancing at the car where Beyoncé was. "It was a pleasure like always. We had fun. Dinner was delicious. Tell Tina I love her and...goodbye." He embraced him in a hug and turned, heading off the patio. "Oh and tell her I didn't forget what she did. I will never." Matthew laughed in response.
"Talk to you later." He sat in on the driver's side. Daniel came running out moments later with a few of his toys.
"Wait for me!!" Justin quickly stepped out and yanked the back door open for him.
"You got everything?"
"Yes, sir!" He sat in next to his mother. Justin waved at Matthew while sitting back in the car and shutting the door.
"Next year, we go to my parents for Christmas." He reminded. She looked in his direction, watching him turn on the wheel, driving them out on the road.
"You mentioned that to me already. Are you gonna keep repeating yourself?" She spoke teasingly.
"Well I just wanna make sure YOU remember. That's all. By that time, junior will be here. It'll be perfect." He reached over to touch her belly, instantly feeling him move. "Whoa. He's moving."
"He's always moving, baby." She placed her hands on top of his. "He moves a lot when you touch my belly. It's like he knows it's his father." He chuckled softly.
She looked up to gaze at the road. It was quiet in the car except for the sound of the engine revving up every time he switched gears on the stick shift. "Who's up for some Dairy Queen? They have one RIGHT by the airport." He broke the silence between them.
"I'm in." Solange replied.
"Me TWO!" Daniel added. He glanced over at Beyoncé who remained quiet with her gaze out the window. He took his hand off the stick shift, placing it on her thigh.
"What about you?" She slowly looked in his direction, meeting his gaze. She seemed to be in deep thought and he was interested in knowing about. If only he could get inside her head.
