The Smiths (COMPLETED)

six

Monte POV:

So when I told Ren I was taking her somewhere special, I was talking about the park I took her to on our first date. She like that cutesy shit like anniversary of our first date, first time we kissed, first time we made love, etc. So today is our anniversary of our first date and I don't know if she remember or not or think I don't remember either way I'm about to surprise her.

She was taking forever to get dressed, when she finally came out looking good. She was wearing a loose gray long sleeve shirt that hung off her shoulders, a pair of all black denim high-waisted jeans and some gray glitter ugs. Yup bae matches my fly.

"Damn bout time, if you took any longer Christmas would be here!" I was teasing her. She just ignored me and rolled her eyes.

"Where you taking me anyway?" She looked at me with excitement.

"I told yo ass not to ask questions Ren, just wait! Is it something wrong with being patient?"

"This must be real good if you can't tell me." She was smiling from ear to ear. I just reached in the living room closet and got out our jackets so we could go.

I ain't gone lie I was excited about this shit myself. It's been a long time since we've been in Bankhead, like six years. That was my childhood neighborhood, from the day I was born til I was 17. When I became a huge drug dealer, things got hectic for me there so I moved from there to East Atlanta to finally settling in Buckhead.

Me and Serenity both from Bankhead. I've known her for 17 years now, crazy huh. We didn't like each other in the beginning, but hell we was five. Then we both had cooties and shit ha. As we got older we grew on each other. I had a fucked up childhood and it seemed as if she was the only one that truly cared and we clicked from there.

When we were 15 I started feeling her. We were around each other all the time and I loved who she was as a person, how she held herself, how she always turned niggas down at school and in the neighborhood, the fact that she knew I was trouble and slingin' dope at that age but yet still hung around me like I was a normal kid. I had to have her and when I got her I felt like the champ. Yeah from here and there I slept around on her, being young and dumb. But I'm in love with Serenity Janae Smith and today she gone see that.

Serenity POV:

We were in the car listening to our favorite song "Put A Little Umph In It" by Jagged Edge, when I realized what today was. Today in 2007 was our first date. Oh my gosh, how'd the hell he remembered and I didn't. I looked over at him and he was bobbing his head to the song until he realized I was staring at him shocked. "Wassup babe?" He asked smirking at me.

"It's our anniversary of our first date, you remembered!" His smirk then turned to a smile. "Yeah I remember but looks like yo ass forgot. It's cool tho, you just look forward to me not remembering in the future." He smirked and put his focus back on our destination. I just sat back in my seat and smiled thinking about the future.

Thinking of the future actually had me excited and scared at the same time. I'm ready to be Mrs. Taylor honestly but at the same time I'm afraid this will happen again. "Once a cheater, always a cheater." That saying fucks with me when I think about us.

Hopefully he can help dissolve that out of my head, so I can be able to think about us in good ways like having more children, going on dates, growing old together for real, to look at each other and be able to know that we honestly love one another, watching our kids grow up, play good and bad cop when our kids are in trouble.. I'm just ready for the future of my family.
