-CASEY-

"Gabe has been so good to me yall. I wake up, cook breakfast, we eat, talk about our plans for the day and go our separate ways. It's like a routine. He's been taking me out, showing me a good time. And his massages, OH GOD, be having me ready to give him about ten more kids."

"TMI" Michelle said as we all laughed.

"But for real, he's been amazing. He definitely won me back." I told them as we continued to make small talk.

We were out looking for me an outfit for my reveal. Somehow it slipped my mind that it was tonight so here we are, shopping last minute. Everything with Gabe and I has been all peaches and cream. He's home every night, catering to me, making sure his kid and I are straight and I love it. He's working on his new album so he spends most of his time in the studio. Despite a few appearances, he at home before I'm bed.

"Aye Case." G said grabbing my attention. I turned around and he was handing me his phone.

Me: Hello?

G: Where yo phone?

Me: In my bag. Mac made me carry my backpack today cause he knew I wouldn't hold my purse long. He has it on his back.

G: (laugh) aight. You find somethin?

Me: Noooooo.

G: quit all that whining shit. Hurry up Case.

Me: Okay Okay. Awww you miss me?

G: Hurry up girl.

Me: Okay. I will. 143.

G: 1432

"Baby daddy rushing you?" Michelle said as she held up a white jumpsuit with gold accents.

"Oooooh that's pretty! Yes let me try this on." I grabbed the jumpsuit and walking into the fitting room. After a little wiggle and jiggle, I was in. This stomach was growing fast and it was starting to get in my way.

"I don't know. What if I have to go to the restroom?" I asked as I walked out the restroom. "Gabe will help you! Get out of that and let's go before we be late." Michelle said rushing me.

After changing back into my clothes, I paid for the outfit and left. G rushed back to the house as I walked in past everyone and up the stairs. Bree started to decorate and Michelle helped me get dressed. Two hours later, people had already arrived and were still arriving when Gabe came to get me out of the room.

"DAMN" he said as he opened the door. I was standing in the mirror fixing this random part of my hair. Turning around to face him, I stood on my tiptoes to kiss him. "You don't look so bad yourself, handsome!"

I grabbed his hands and walked down the hall to the back of the house. "I hope its some food ready. Your son is hungry." I said taking his hand and rubbing it against my tummy as we both smiled.

Gabe walked past the food table and up to a table full of people I didn't know but noticed his mom. I let go of his hand and sped walk to his mom with my arms wide. We talked a lot over the phone and she would get Gabe right together for me.

"Ahhhh it's so good to see you." I said as a I approached her and hugged her not wanting to let go. "You too sweetie."

"How long have you been here? Where have you been staying? I know Gabe aint got you staying in a hotel." I said to her while catching an attitude with Gabe.

"I literally just got here. We haven't discuss that much yet." She said laughing.

I continued to talk to her as she introduced me to the rest of the family that were there with her from up North. After communicating with her, I walked to the food table and starting fixing my plate to join Gabe at a little designated for us.

"You have fun talking yo shit about me?" He asked as he pulled the chair out. I laughed at him before responding.

"Boy aint nobody talking about you." I said taking a bite out of my fish sandwich.

"Damn. Hungry ass. Gabe aint feeding you?" Rod said and I just rolled my eyes without responding.

"So who all leaving with us in the morning?" I asked Gabe. We were heading back to New York for WildNOut.

"Shit iono. That was yo job." Gabe said as he ate his fried chicken and fish.

"That was really an open ended question for the table." I said rolling my eyes.

"Oh me."

"Me"

"Me"

"Me"

"Man everybody. Damn." Rod said aggravated that almost everyone was saying me. I laughed at Rod as we continued to eat. I was lowkey excited that everyone was going with us! Im more of myself with I'm with my girls.

"It's almost that time." Bree said letting Gabe and I know that we needed to finish eating. We both agreed to not play games and just have a cookout. We both just wanted to mix and mingle.

After we finished eating, I grabbed Gabe's hand and walked towards the back of the yard where the skeet trap was as everyone followed. Gabe sat up the guns and worked with Bree to make sure everything was ready. I turned around to see my mom and granny cracking up with Mrs. Miller.

"Yall come closer." I said to them. "Uh uh Case you know I don't do guns." My mom said causing everyone to laugh. "Niecy come on. You know damn well Case aint gone let nothing happen to you." My granny said pulling my mom and Mrs. Miller close.

I decided to just let Gabe shoot today. I didn't want to risk anything happening to the baby.

"You sure you want me to use this?" He asked showing my baby, my 9. He would be the one and only other person I would let use my baby. "Yes, for this one time. After this, don't touch my shit." I said causing everyone to laugh.

There was a target board in front of him with five targets. Gabe gave me the shooting muffs as he put his on. Bree walked back towards the crowd. They were close enough to see what was going on but far away so that it wouldn't hurt their ears.

"Start with the bottom two first!" Bree yelled. I watched Gabe shooting the bottom two and nothing came out. I looked back at Bree with a confused look.

"Keep going! The next two!" She said and Gabe shot again revealing nothing. It was one target left and we were all anxious. My hands started to sweat and a part of me wished it was it me.

"Come on." Gabe said pulling me in front of him. I guess he could read my mind cause he gave me the gun and stood behind me as he wrapped his hands around mine. With both of our fingers on the trigger, Gabe pulled it causing the gun to go off as we aimed it directly at the target.

It seemed like everything moved in slow motion. As soon as the target was hit, we saw blue powder dispersing everywhere as everyone yelled and Gabe jumped away from me going crazy like he hit the lottery. He then came and picked me up spinning me around, kissing me.

"ITS A BOY!"
