"i just feel really bad..." nia sighs, looking over at me as i sit in her passenger seat. "you really shouldn't. i'm loving being here and watching sophia." i smile, being completely honest with her. "this is the most i've ever left her with a baby sitter." she sighs again, becoming worried that she's leaving sophia too much. ever since i've known nia shes always worried more than she needs to. along with the worrying, she over thinks as well which isn't good for her. it always leaves her second guessing. "you and sam need some alone time. away from me, nate... sophia..jack and jj and it's perfectly okay to have some away time. it gives me a chance to spend more time with sophia as well which i love." i explain. "you're already dressed up." i add onto my explanation.
she glances down at her outfit and nods before smiling at me. "you're right. i shouldn't worry." she states, becoming more into the idea of having a date night with sam that doesn't involve nate and sophia, no matter how much she hates leaving sophia with other people. she was always with me because of her mom... she was exactly like that. yes we love her to death, but nia hayes always having to be at someone else's house because of it. that's how we became so close. our moms were both friends, they actually introduced us to each other. she's just nervous she's spending too much time away from her, which i completely understand but she's not. she's not at all.
"sams excited about tonight" she speaks up again before i could reply. i smile and clap some. "you two just enjoy tonight... i mean it. don't worry about anything." i reassure her, watching as we pull into her drive way after the ride to pick me up from my moms house; where i have been staying the past week until i'm officially moved down here. i actually found a cute little apartment a few miles from here, which i'm definitely stoked over. i'll be close to nia, sammy, nate, sophia and my family. it's perfect.
"we will. thank you so much for tonight and can you tell sammy to hurry?" she asks me as i get out of the car. i nod and smile at her for how excited she's starting to seem. she's letting loose. she needs to. "and call me if anything happens! i'm serious!!" she yells as i shut the door. i give her a thumbs up and wink at her to indicate that i heard her before making my way to their front door.
"sammy, nia said hurry so you better before she changes her mind." i laugh, shaking my head as i walk in. he laughs at me and sighs. "oh trust me, i know." he smiles and starts to walk past me and towards the front door before stopping and turning around to face me. "shes down for a nap right now... she should be waking up soon. please call me if anything happens." he tells me, his fatherly instincts kicking in. i smile at how mature he's become and how real this all is. "i still feel like i'm forgetting something though..." he furrows his eyebrows, looking up at the door frame above him as if it'd help him remember. "you're just over thinking and sure thing. you guys have fun... no more babies! actually i don't think i'd mind." i correct myself, thinking about how cute sophia is. maybe i could actually be at that ones birth, if they ever have another one of course. "no. no more for a while." he laughs, shutting the door behind him as he walks out.
