"Last night was nice you know I've been meaning to take you out to show you how much I appreciate you being here for Gigi and I. Especially since Madison's dealing with the situation in L.a, your support and dedication has been unmeasurable, I owe you one."

As I awoke to the sun rays beaming through the room, I believe the sound of Steph's voice from our personal restroom drew me in fully awakening me.
Laying still in bed my mind attempted to process what my ears were hearing.

".... no Ofcourse not... listen I know you like seafood just as much as me so maybe we can do something before I leave just to show how much I appreciate your never ending dedication these past months...." Steph chuckled, as Power entered the bedroom snatching my attention away from the conversation in the restroom Steph was obviously sharing with none other than Cindy.

"Mama you smell that?" My baby boy asked sniffing the air as he traveled over to me like a hound dog.

"No baby, what are you smelling?"

"Nothing, that's what... not a thing. Not no Bacon, not no eggs, not no pancakes, Nothing, not even a scent of grease frying... Nothing. Why aren't you up cooking my lady."

I burst into laughter snatching him over to me and kissing his forehead, "You are one character you little king. I guess that's your way of telling me to get the hell up and get in the kitchen."

"Minus the cuss word."

"Oh I'm sure you said it in your head." Pulling the cover back I pinched his cheek, slipping straight into my slippers as Steph opened the bathroom door in his boxers.

"cover up dude!" Power huffed making us all giggle as he flashed out of the room chuckling himself.

"What am I going to do with him."

"I don't know maybe get him a job doing standup at the club. It's about time he start pulling his own weight. How's my gorgeous little Babies."

"Oh that's how it is, just forget about me?"

"Yeah duhhhhh." Steph kissed my belly before gripping my ass and staring blankly into my face. "You look so beautiful just don't open your mouth with that morning breath and ruin this for me."

Growling I reframed from doing so as a smile wrote across my face. "I hate you."

"Love me in the evening if you go hate me in the morning then. Get in that kitchen and cook though."

"You and power must think y'all have a maid."

"Think we know!— hey look ima be leaving a little early today gotta get some things out the way, probably won't be back until in the morning."

"But babe we leave in the morning for L.a why would you be out all night?"

"Tying up some loose ends down at the club you know Cindy can't function without me."

"What about lance?"

"He's on vacation."

"So you're going to spend the night at the club working all night and then make it back in time for the flight and be exhausted flying half way across He world?"

"Yeah that's the plan baby. Besides it's not like I won't have time to sleep on the plane. Look if it's a problem I'll stay and let the club sink."

I sighed knowing that he was giving me the guilt trip and against my better judgment I gave in. Watching him dress in a pair of jeans.

"I love you for always being so understanding."
