*Y/N  P.O.V

I hop in the car while Stokely places Heaven in her car seat.

"She looks so peaceful sleeping" Stokely says while getting in the drivers seat. I giggle and nod my head in agreement.

He than starts the car and drives off. "Well I guess this is the perfect time to talk to him" I think to myself.

"Stokely..." I say fiddling with my hands. "Hmmm" he says still keeping his eyes on the road.

I look down and say "I just want to apologize for everything I have done in the past and for keeping your child away from you"

The car gets extra silent besides the faint sound of the radio in the background.

"Look I know it wasn't the time and you probably don't want to ta-" "No, I think we should talk about it"

I pause then look at him and he glances at me for a quick second saying "Go on...."

I look at him sideways for a hot minute but quickly change my expressions when he turns to look at me.

"Listen Stokely I've honestly missed you so much and it kills me to see you with another girl but I threw that all away when I said what I said. Also I feel really bad about not giving you a chance to be in your daughters life. I truly regret everything I put you through... I'm really sorry." I say with my voice cracking.

A tear starts to trickle down my face but gets wiped away swiftly. Stokely pulls back his hand and focuses back on the road.

"Please don't cry baby girl. I hate seeing you in pain. And yes I am upset about not being in the early stages of her life but I can understand why you made some of your choices." He states as I watch him intently.

" I would be lying if I didn't say I missed you to." He chuckles and my heart skips a beat hearing him say that.

"But I can't just leave Isabella like that and you know this. And no matter what I will always love you remember that."

I fight back tears and nod my head saying "I know...and I'll always love you too Stoke."

I lay my head on the window and close my eyes while trying to drown out everything around me.

When I open my eyes again I'm in my bed cuddled up to someone. I turn my head to see a sleeping Stokely.

I decide to turn all the way around to face him. As I'm laying there staring at him I study the features of his face.

I run my thumb over his eyebrows, nose, then lips. A slight smile comes onto my face as I remember the times we used to have.

But then it starts to fade as the bad memories come swarming in. I jump the slightest bit when he pulls me into his chest and tightens his grip.

I figured he was awake but the tiny snores in my ear told me otherwise. As his body warmth starts to engulf me I start drifting off to sleep.

* 8 am
I wake up and stretch out my arms but quickly open my eyes when I don't feel Stokely next to me. I start frantically looking around the room till he walks out the bathroom.

He had a towel wrapped around his waist and water from his dreads dripping down his body.

I lick my lips unintentionally and he chuckles saying "Close your mouth before a bug flys in it"

I swiftly look away in embarrassment while the blood rushes to my cheeks. "I'm sorry" I say lowly.

"It's fine" he laughs. "But do you still have some of my old clothes." He asks
