Lauren Monique

|7:45am|

I'm thirsty but can't get up, Elijah has both of his arms wrapped around me with his head in my neck.

"Elijah" I tapped his arm

"Hmm?"

"I'm thirsty"

He reached back onto his nightstand pressing something then got back into the position he was in.

A few seconds later there was a knock on the door.

"Come in?" I said in a question manner when Eli tapped my leg, he nods

"How may I help you?" Mary asked standing at the door

"Um can I have Apple juice please?" I asked peeling Eli's arms off me as I sat up

"Yes, right away ma'am" she walked away

I cringed at the word ma'am.

"Babe, let me hold you" Elijah mumbled trying to get ahold of me

Mary came back giving me apple juice and oatmeal cookies as well.

"Incase you get hungry" she smiled

"Thank you"

She left closing the door behind her, just as Elijah makes his way back to me. He laid his head on my lap wrapping his arms around my waist.

Isaiah started kicking.

"See even Izzy wants his space" I said softly eating the cookies

"That's just his way of saying hello to me"

I busted out laughing at that.

"Yeah sure, let's go with that"

Taking a few sips of the juice, I ate all the cookies. By now Elijah's snoring his heart out.

Instead of going back to sleep myself I went on YouTube looking at natural hair tutorial videos, I glanced at Elijah's hair. It looks so soft, I have to touch it.

Pausing my video, I ran a hand through his hair. Just as I expected, soft!

"Lauren" he groaned moving away to his side of the bed

Really? That's all I had to do?

"Elijah, what are you going to do today? Stay in bed and sleep all day?" I asked admiring his tat'd back

"Elijah, what are you going to do today? Stay in bed and sleep all day?" I asked admiring his tat'd back

"If that's what you want" he shrugged

"I'm leaving soon" I told him

"Why don't you want to spend time with me?" he asked this time turning to me but his eyes where closed

"Why do you keep calling Babe like we're dating?"

"Because we are dating" he answered in a duh tone

"Well nah, you missed a step. You didn't ask me out playboy"
