~Tionne~

Baby! I am coming she said coming down the stairs, we were about to be late to our flight to New York. Chicago started off rocky but once we got past the first day it was smooth sailing for us. She was up with us early going to the radio stations and then she'd go back to the room during the after noon when we went to the actual in person interviews. Not cause I was hiding her, but because she was tired getting up at 4 ain't no joke and I knew my baby was tired, so I'd tell her to go back and rest.

Ba...I am here she said coming down the stairs. Baby we're going to NY really, I said looking at her outfit. I know we are. Baby its July not December you don't need the big ass coat and boots. It gets cold at night though. Not that cold I said undoing her coat, here take this off you don't need it. I heard Li blowing the horn. We gotta go I said making her take off the coat real quick. She tossed the coat on the couch as we walked out the house. We coming damn! Yall know we about to be late. Sorry Li, Pollyanna over here came down in a full-on winter outfit. I did not and don't call me no damn Pollyanna Juju said mushing my head. Aye I love you, but you don't want them problems. Mhm and what are you going to do? Wait till we get to New York and see. Mmm can't wait she said winking to me.

Yall so freaking nasty, Li said laughing as we drove to the airport. Who says? Says me, yall are sickening with the "I love you! Aww I love you too baby", "Pookie and Cupcake shit". Jealous, huh, Juju said. Ti get yo girl before she walking to the airport. I wish you would make her walk, we would have to fight. If we weren't already late, I'd stop this car she said laughing. Li you know the deal. Yeah! Yeah! Whatever.

We made it to the airport in time to park the car, barely make it through security and to the last boarding call for our flight. Chill had already left, her and Dallas flew in a day earlier, so we didn't have to wait on her. You ladies just made it the fly attendant said showing us to our seats. It's been one of those days. Tell me about it she said smiling as we took our seats.

Lili! Yeah Juju! What is there to do fun in New York? Girl every single thing. Ooo Ti can we take her to...Nope! You don't even know what I was about to say. If it involves sneaking her into the club or any sort of gay club it's not happening. Wow you really think I'd try to take her to the gay club? Come on now Ti. Remember the first time we went to Cali and you and Chill tried to take her to Peanuts. I would have thought you'd forgotten about that. I don't' think so trying to take my girl to the gay club she ain't even gay. They both were looking at me laughing. What's so funny? You realize that you just said hella loud that we tried to take yo girl the gay club. Man, whatever I said rolling my eyes at them. It's okay cupcake, Ju said grabbing my hand. I kissed the back of her hand and relaxed as the flight took off. And here we are again with that mushy lovey dovey shit Li said shaking her head.

Two and a half hours later we landed in New York. Baby I whispered to her. Mm we there yet? Yeah, we are. Okay she said sitting up off my shoulder. Here baby put these on I said handing her the sunglasses. Why is it sunny out? No, New York is different than any other place, the fans already know what flights we coming in on and will stalk our asses at the airport. Stay behind me and don't let go of my hand for anything. Okay she said taking my hand as we existed the plane. And sure, enough the fans were everywhere. I felt her hand gripping my hand tightly as we walked through the airport. Picture! Picture! We finally got to the town car and I put her in front of me, get in the SUV and scoot to the other side, make sure the door is locked. Okay she said waiting for our body guard to opening the door while Li and I took pics and signed autographs.

We took a few pics before getting in the SUV. Wheew! That was crazy I said getting in. I didn't realize it was like that I mean we go places all the time in Atlanta and they don't do this. Well for one we don't walk around with big ass body guards at home and two things are just different in the south. I can tell. Look how big the buildings are she said looking at them through the window. Hey, we have tonight free how about you and I go on a date. A date she said looking at me. Mhm just you and me I said pecking her hand. Okay she said smiling at me. I love to see her smile that way, it makes me feel that I am doing the right thing and that we'll make it through any circumstance that comes our way.
