I'm Yours (Original)

Breakfast

“Mommy, Mommy!” Blue said while jumping on Beyoncé. Beyoncé groaned as she sat up. She realized that she was still in the guest room. “Hey Blue Blue.” She said while picking her daughter up.

“How did you sleep?”

“Good.”

“You hungry?” Bey asked while walking down the stairs toward to kitchen.

“No. Already eat!” Blue said while trying to get down from her mother arms. Bey put her down.

“Already ate?” She asked Blue.

“Yes!” blue said. They made it to the kitchen.

When Beyoncé got to the kitchen she saw Cori putting pancakes on to a plate.

“Good morning!” Cori said. “I made breakfast.” She said handing Beyoncé her plate.

“Wow, I didn’t know you could cook.” Bey said while taking a bite out of her pancake.

“I’ve been here less than 24 hours. You don’t know anything about me but my name.” Cori said.

Bey smiled. “Well, I would love to get to know you better.”

Cori smiled.

“And thanks for feeding Blue Blue.” She added.

“No problem.”

After Bey was almost done with her breakfast Jay came into the kitchen.

“Good morning everyone.” He said while taking a seat at the island table.

“Daddy!” Blue said while running to him. Jay picked her up, gave her a kiss on the cheek and put her back down.

“So who made breakfast!?” Jay asked

“Guess” said Beyoncé.

“Well it wasn’t Ivy, I know it wasn’t you,” he said pointing at Bey, “So it must have been” he turned and looked at Cori, “You!” he said. They all laughed.

“Yes sir it was me.  Your plate is in the microwave.”

“Thank you very much!” Jay said while walking to the microwave.

“But why did you cook? You ate at like 4 o’clock this morning; it’s only 8:15.” Beyoncé said.

“I like to eat. I always have a big appetite.” Cori said and laughed a little.

“Just like Beyoncé!” Jay added while walking back to the table with his now hot food and nudging his wife on her side.

“Whatever Jay. I can’t help it that I eat a lot. Food is amazing!”

“I agree.” said Cori.

“So where are you from?” Jay asked

“Houston, Texas.”

“I’m from Houston too.” said Bey.

“I know. I’m a fan.” Cori said.

“Oh Lord! We have a member of the BeyHive in our house, this should be interesting!” he said while laughing. Bey gave him a flirty punch on his shoulder.

“Great, so then you’re not a complete stranger.” Be said and then winked at her.

Cori smiled.

“What about your parents?” Bey added.

“Umm, I don’t know either of my parents, but I somewhat know of them. I know that my mother was raped, by my father who is in jail, but that’s what I’ve heard through the grapevine, it might not be true.”

“I’m sorry to hear that.” Bey said.

“It’s fine.”

“Do you know how old your mom was when she had you?” Jay asked.

“I don’t know the exact age but I know she was very young. 15 maybe.”

Blue came running back into the kitchen with a coloring book. “Color.” She said.

“You want me to color with you?” Bey asked

“No Mommy! Cori color!” she said

“Sure blueberry! I would love to color with you.” Blue ran around the counter and grabbed Cori’s hand; she practically dragged Cori into her room.

It’s about three in the afternoon and the house was quiet… to quiet.

“I’m going to go check on the kids.” Jay said.

“Ok.”

After a few minutes Jay came back downstairs and laid his head down on Bey’s lap like it was earlier.

“How are they?”

“Sleep.”

“Both of them?”

“Yeah. Blue is in her bed and Cori is sleep in the chair.”

“You think you can watch them for a bit? I need to stop by Kelly’s house.”

“Their sleeping, it shouldn’t be that much of a struggle.” Jay said while sitting up again.

“Okay, I’ll be back soon baby.” Bey said. She grabbed her keys and kissed Jay on her way out the door.
