I wake up feeling like a new woman. I felt happier than I have been in a long time. I look over at Malik and see him sleeping peacefully. I move his arm from around my waist and get up from the bed. I kiss his temple then go to brush my teeth.  As I was brushing my teeth, I feel the girls moving around and kicking. I can't believe my due date is four weeks away. I smile as I rub my stomach as the babies kick and move around even more. I hear the bed shifting around. I walk out of the bathroom and see Malik still sleeping. I finish brushing my teeth, put on a jersey dress, grab one of the room keys, and left the room. I go down the hall and knock on Ashanti's door. She answers the door in a panic. She let out a breath of relief as she let me in the room. 

"Are you okay?" I ask.

"Yea. I'm fine. Just had a bad nightmare last night, but I heard you and Malik had a good night," she says, smirking at me.

I blush and look away from her.

"You heard that?" I ask.

"Girl. everybody on this floor heard y'all," she says.

"Well. I hoped they liked the show."

We share a small laugh and it dies leaving us in an awkward silence.

"Ashanti, I really came over here to thank you for going through this with us. I know how much you want this for yourself but you were selfless enough to tell us so we can get him off of our asses, too."

"It's really nothing. I just didn't want to leave town without at least letting you know or doing something about it. He's sicker than I thought. That's why I'm glad that tomorrow will be the day we start on this process. I'm so ready to be done with him controlling me."

"Same. I just wanted to ask if you were going tomorrow or the day after cause I'm not going tomorrow. I'm going the day after."

"I'm going on both days. We need as many witnesses and personal accounts as possible."

I nod my head.

"Okay, well. When do we wanna get everyone together to talk about it?" I ask.

"We can do it around noon, since everybody is still sleeping right now. Speaking of that, why are you awake right now?"

"Oh, I was hungry and I was getting ready to wake Malik up so we could get breakfast. You wanna come?" I say, getting up and heading towards the door.

"No thanks. I don't really have an appetite," she says.

"You sure?"

She nods her head and smiles. I give her a hug and walk out of her room. I use my key to unlock my room door and see Malik sitting up on the bed, talking on the phone. I smirk and walk over to him. He smiles at me pulling me on to him. I take off my dress leaving me completely naked as I sat on his lap. His mouth dropped open as I smiled and attacked his neck with kisses.

"C-chance, what did you just say?" He asks, putting his phone on speaker. 

He places his phone on the nightstand. Malik's eyes start rolling ad his breath gets caught in his throat. He grabs my hair yanking me away from his neck. His eyes hooded and his chest rising and falling quickly as he was trying to catch his breath. He bites my neck and I let out a struggled groan. He shushes me and lays me on the bed.
