"Queen, we just got finished working out and you got peach cobbler".
"I don't care, you said I can get it".
"I thought you meant later later, you're eating it as soon as we come up from the gym room", he chuckled.
They get to their door and Clarence swipes the key card.
"What you got in that bag?", she asked.
"A Gatorade", he says turning the knob and moving to the side to let her walk in first.
"Why the hell they put a Gatorade in a paper bag?".
She walks in a flops on the bed and takes a bite of her peach cobbler.
"Mmm, I want some ice cream too".
He chuckles from the bathroom, "Yo Queen".
Queen realized his voice sounds weird when he said her name so she asks him a question.
"Clare, wasn't the meet and greet crazy yesterday, it took us so long to get out of there".
"Yeah", he said like his mouth was full. "Mhm".
She puts her peach cobbler on the bed and quietly walks to the bathroom. She goes in and sees Clarence downing some banana pudding.
"Un uhh, you talkin' bout me when you in here sneaking some food", she laughs.
He bursts out laughing from getting caught.
"Look at my- look a my-", him referring to his nice body.
"No- no I don't care", she laughed.
She leaves the bathroom and sits on the top part of the bed. She calls room service.
"Hi, y'all open 24- hours right?"
"Yes we are".
"Okay can I get some Vanilla ice cream? And how fast can y'all get up here?"
Clarence comes out the bathroom, "Get me some, too".
"No, get outta here", she chuckled.
He sits on the bed continuing to eat his banana pudding
"We don't have Vanilla, we have chocolate and pistachio at the moment".
She makes a stink face, "Ion really want chocolate. Is the pistachio any good?"
"Yeah, it's pretty tasty ma'am".
"Don't be lyin' to me, now. Is it really good because I ain't never had it before".
"It is good but I prefer the chocolate".
"Ummm, alright can I just get the chocolate then?"
"Is that all?"
Clarence plucks Queen's underwear. "That's a thong?"
She chuckles and smacks his hand away, "No, stop".
"What else would you like?"
"Oh no, nothing. That'll be all".
"Okay, it'll be up in a few minutes".
"Alright thank you", she hangs up the phone.
She turns around a lays on her back and looks at Clarence.
"Come on lets go to the gym", he suggests.
"We just got back from the gym".
"That don't count no more, look what we just ate. And you bout to get a whole ice cream".
