August Pov.

"Aye bae-bae, they all good at the place," I yelled coming in to house.

"Ok, come upstairs Aug." Lyshell yelled.

"Huh?" I coughed.

"I look okay?" she asked spinning around.

I nodded and went to kiss her. We shared a pasionate kiss and almost started something else.

"I love you!" She whispered tapping my butt.

"Stop that," I laughed pushing her hands. "And I love you lots."

"When baby August gets here I think he should take on your nickname or something like it."

"Im Daddy, so what you want him to be papa?" I questioned causing Lyshell to give me the finger. "Just call him Yung', I know thatt's my nickname and all, but people also say yungin' so I can't really switch it up."

When it was time for the baby shower Lyshell waddled down the stairs and I walked after her, carrying her bag and my phone. Once we were situated in the car I pulled out the parking lot and was off. When we got there Lyshell was first out the car, running to our mothers and I was off talking to my cousins. Walking in the hall, I watched Lyshell's face light up. I took what she wanted and made a little something out of it.

Since the walls in the hall were already green I did like a lil New Orleans swamp type theme. The tables all had a little reminder of New York on them and on the back wall a motion picture of Atlanta played. Beautiful by Jeezy played while people filled up the room.

"How do you like it?" I asked walking up.

"Like? Baby I love it, I love the little touches you add on to things and you never forget to bring back memories of home." Lyshell smiled.

I smirked and planted a small kiss on her lips. 

"I'm sorry the rest of the guys couldn't show." I lied, "You know them niggas always up to something."

"Um Lyshell, your lucky fan is here." The DJ said over Usher's Good Kisser.

We turned our heads and a girl, she had to be at least 17 walked in. Lyshell left out of my grasp and walked over to her.

"Hey August come meet my supporter" I walked up and wrapped my arm around Lyshell. "Babe this is Ana, remember her mom stopped me in the mall?" 

I nodded. "Hey Ana, how are you?" I said after hugging her.

"Good, and this is beautiful!" She said looking around.

I smirked, and mentally added two cool points to my jar. Soon it came down to the time when everybody was eating. Since my Mac Book was connected to the projector that played the motion picture of Atlanta, the facetime call from Travis came up. I smiled slightly and pressed answer while the music cut off.

"Hey Aug where Lyshell at?" I got something to show her.

Lyshell stood and walked over so she could see the wall. I stuck up my thumb and let magic happen.

"Lyshell, you know August is crazy right?" Jamal asked.

"Who doesn't know?" Lyshell laughed.

"We gotta show you what his crazy ass did!" Sneak said shaking his head. 

They put the the call on paused then walked in the house.

"Shelly close them eyes and mama make sure they closed so I could take this call off pause."  Travis said. "Okay open."

They gave Lyshell a virtual tour of the house, she was in love and you could tell by the look on her face.

"Lil sis we got one more room to show," Twin said placing his hand on the door knob. "Pay close attention."

They walked around our room showing her everything. 

"What is that on the wall?" Lyshell asked when Twin had quickly showed the room the wall.

"What this?" Jamal asked. 

"Oh that's a little message from Yung." Travis said.

"Care to read August?" Sneak chuckled.

"Lyshell Jordan Taylor, will you tie me down? And take this last part of the shoe string? Will you be willing to wake up to me everyday for the rest of your life? I mean I'm asking for your hand in marriage. Will you marry me babeh?" I asked while Lyshell let her tears flow down her perfect face.

"Are you dumb? Of course I'll marry you." She shouted.

I slipped the gold diamond encrusted ring on her finger and kissed her passionately. Everyone was around us taking pictures and the kids were cheering. In the back ground I heard my bros all say 'yesss" in sync.

"I love you August." Lyshell said walking us over to the gift table. 

She bent down and picked up a black drawstring bag. I pulled it open and took out a black box, opening it i pulled out some brand new grills. Digging in the bag again I pulled out another box and opened it. It was the hardest fuckin' Rolex yo, I swear.

"Thank you baby." I said before kissing her. 

She shrugged, "it ain't a thing." 

In my hands she placed the box to an IPhone 6. I opened the box and pulled out the phone, I saw Lyshell already had it set up. I swiped the screen and the first thing to pop up was a video. I pressed play and Beyonce's XO played. Pictures of Liya and I went across the screen, from when we were younger to us now. There were little parts were the music would stop and videos of Lyshell and I would play. One that caught my eye is from when we were in high school and I had to go over her house. We were arguing because she wouldn't tell me she loved me. I told her sooner or later she would say it with out me telling her too. Look now, she says it every damn day, like every damn day.

"I love you Lyshell." I said and this time I meant it with my entire life.

GUYSSSSSS, Should I make a sequel?
