Picture of Vanessa^^

I hear Amelia giggling in the living room and notice, she has my phone. "No! You can't play with my phone. It's not a toy! That's a no no!" She starts to cry, pouting her bottom lip up at me. When I take it away from her, Cameron says, "Babe, someone's on the line." I look and sure enough there is. I put the phone up to my ear and apologize to whomever is on the other end. A lady, I recognize says, "Oh no dear, It's alright. I was calling to ask if you'd like to go on a book signing tour? Your niece must have answered the phone." She laughs and continues to say, "If you accept, we will be leaving first thing in the morning." She pauses to let me respond. "Yes, my daughter was the one to accept the call and i'd need a couple of hours to think it over before agreeing. Which cities would we be traveling to?" Vanessa, the lady says, "Well darling, that would be your choice but I was thinking of maybe, Detroit, Atlanta, Miami, New York City, Nashville, Seattle and of course your hometown, Lynchburg." "Okay, give me an hour and I'll call you back with my answer and what I want to do." She says, "Sure thing Miss Smith." With that, I hang up and turn to Cameron, "We need to talk. Could you take her to her room and put on Puppy Pals for her?" He nods and does just that. I sit down on the sofa with my head in my hands. My stomach has been cramping for a few days but no other sign of my period. To be honest, I'm a week late. I haven't said anything to babe about it, because my periods are irregular and it might come soon. I have been more emotional lately though, Just how I made Amelia cry earlier, I had cried over dropping a french fry off my plate yesterday. Cameron walks back into the room, joining me on the sofa. He looks at me and says, "Looks like we both have some news." I look at him questioningly and he smiles. "Remember Evan? Well, He just came out as a New gay artist and is in between country and pop. Anyways, he wants me to write his next new single." I jump up, jumping up and down, clapping my hands. "Babe! That's great news! I'm so happy for you! But wait, when do you have to have it done by?" He stands up, wrapping his arms around my waist. "In a month, but no pressure." He laughs. I smile and he asks what my news is. I tell him, "Remember my book? Well, I just got a call to go on tour, signing. Apparently, my book is a best seller right now." He lifts me off the ground and spins me around before kissing me. "Baby, That's wonderful! When do you leave?" I sigh. "Tomorrow morning, if I say yes. Do you think I should? You and Amelia could come with and it be a family experience." He cups my face and kisses me to the point, my knees almost get weak. When he pulls away, I say, "I'll take that as a yes." He nods. "Yes. It's a yes. I think it would be amazing. I've never been out of Cali and Amelia will be able to say she's been places, when she grows up. Where will we be going though? Any real big cities?" I smile and tell him, Seattle, Detroit, Nashville, Lynchburg, Where i'm originally from. Atlanta, Miami and New York City so far. Any other ideal places love?" He smiles and suggests, "What about Boston, Phoenix, Salt Lake City and Charleston?" "Sounds good babe. I'll call Vanessa back while you can start packing suitcases." He leavesw and I make the phone call that'll chaange our normal routine. I tell her the 4 other places, we've decided on and she agrees, they're good cities. After being told we'll meet at the airport first thing in the morning, 8 A.M sharp, I hang up and notice a text from Kaitlyn.

K: Hey sis, When can we hang out again?
Me: I have to pack and leave out early tomorrow morning but we can when i'm finished packing or when I get back, Whichever you'd like.
K: Tonight! I miss you already A!
Me: I know, I know. I miss you too. Pick me up in an hour.
K: Could we go in your car? Tucker wants to hang out with Cameron, so I was just going to ride with him.
Me: Yeah, That's fine. See ya'll soon.
K: Love you! <3
Me: Love you too! :)

I go into the kitchen and start supper. Tonight we are having steak, rice and fried potatoes. Cameron comes down with baby girl 20 minutes later and turns the tv on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse for her before joining me in the kitchen. He makes a pitcher of tea and pours us a glass, before getting Amelia some apple juice. I walk over and put her in her highchair, putting her plate in front of her. She may love pizza and chicken nuggets, but steak is her favorite meat. The doorbell then goes off and Cameron answers it. "Hey man!" Tucker smiles. "Hey. I smell food!" I laugh as Kaitlyn hugs her brother. "Yes, Tuck you smell food. Come make yourself a plate. I made plenty." I tell him. He fixes Kaitlyn a plate first, then himself. After eating and small chit chat, Kaitlyn and I, leave and go to a new club, she's been talking about. The guard lets us in and she automatically pulls me to the dancefloor. The song Loyal by Chris Brown was playing but soon goes off. Boss Ass Bitch by Nicki comes on and I get turnt. "This is my shit!" Kaitlyn smiles and says, "Yassss bitch!" I laugh and go to get drinks. Drinks as in Pepsi, I'm only 18.  Kaitlyn can drink though, She's 22. She comes to join me at the bar where this tall dark guy smiles over at us. "Yo A, that man staring mad hard. Want to be my girl for a minute?" I laugh and nod catching onto what she was meaning. We go over to the dance floor, when Juvenile-Back that ass up, starts playing. Sure enough the guy was watching us, as I started twerking on her. He almost spits his drink out. When she stops me and turns me to face her, And what happens next takes me by surprise. She kisses me...
