Driving all the way out to Miami from Jacksonville took around 4 hours. So Maurice had them all up at 4am so that they would have an eta of 8am. He wasn't playing around when he said he was serious about this whole thing.

Robyn was asleep in the passenger seat, and Maurice couldn't help but notice the slight changes to her slim figure. For one her hips were more rounded, her tummy looked like when she ate one too many donuts last week, and when he thought of it, her mood swings had been rather erratic. He was praying to god that she had his little seedling growing in her stomach because after all he had prayed for someone just like her and that had come true.

Taking a short detour to Starbucks, he desperately needed his coffee fix... Thinking about it, maybe he was being a bit apprehensive, perhaps they didn't need to be there so soon... As urgent as the situation was. He glanced over at Robyn, a small smile rising on his lips as she finally looked peaceful. All last night she was tossing and turning, waking up before falling back asleep. And this was after he put her ass out...

Running into Starbucks, he quickly ordered an espresso with and a white coffee, returning back to his car even quicker. He knew if he had been gone too long she would've woken up, and just as he opened the car door he was met with scowling emerald eyes. Once Maurice was back in the car, cups in their cup holders, she unearthed an arm from under his jacket and snatched the cup she knew was hers. Muttering a small thank you.

They were about an hour out from Miami, and the nerves were becoming more apparent. Robyn made sure that Sam knew to expect them, but failed to mention the hour they'd be arriving. Assuring herself that Sam knew his best friend enough to expect them.

"Baby! I'm tired..." she groaned, rolling her eyes at herself sounding as if she were pregnant. Maurice chuckled before mentioning the fact that they were minutes away, and soon they were both anxiously climbing out of the car and knocking on a big brown door.

The door opened, showcasing a tall thin blonde, who scanned the couple at the door with furrowed brows. She had a little mix raced baby on her hip who was sucking on a teething ring. Registering who the man was at the door, she turned and called for Samuel.

"SAM! It's for you!" The blonde called, Maurice thanked her as Robyn stood confused behind him slightly. When Sam appeared, the woman kissed his cheek before telling him that she'd finish off cooking their breakfast and taking the children with her.

"Robyn said you guys were coming but damn Reece! This is early!" Sam dramatically rubbed his eyes before inviting the couple in.

Once they were all seated in the comfort of his living room, his house wasn't what Robyn had expected at first. It was definitely more elegant and had a woman's touch to it, the rooms were cream with brown couches, and a glass coffee table with a big tv hanging on the wall that was also decorated of various family pictures.
