"She's a what?!" Jospeh exclaimed, completely missing his shot, which was our last one. "Hold on." He said to the two guys who started cheering, thinking they had a chance. They didn't. Jospeh came closer to me and lowered his voice. "She's got a kid?"

"Yes bro.. Quincy is her daughter. When you said they looked identical... that's the reason."

"Holy shit." He mumbled before nodding me to take the next shot when the boy missed. "I would've never thought bro. She looks good." I raised my eyes slowly and stared at him until he stammered out a response. "I-I mean like most pregnant ladies I know gained a few pounds or lose their glow but she still looks fine as fuck- I mean..." I chuckled and looked back down at the eighth ball, shooting it in nonchalantly. "I don't know who you're learning your glares from but you gotta stop."

"Vanessa taught me." I raised up with a soft sigh and while Joseph collected the money from one guy, I turned to the other dude who stood next to me. "Man I just.. I can't help but think of what she's doing when I'm not there." I looked down and leaned against the pool table. "And I mean.. I miss little Q too for some reason. She's just so adorable and I'm not ready to be a step parent but I'm also in love with V and I can't see myself not being with her.. I'm just stuck."

The guy cleared his throat and patted my back. "You know what I think?" I looked up with hopeful eyes. "Sounds like you need to get laid. You don't need kids buddy." I frowned as he gave me a smile and walked off to his other friends.

"Okay so, that's three hundred tonight.. Wanna call it?" Joseph asked and I nodded as I started to set my stick back up.

"Got time for one more game?" I looked over my shoulder, freezing when I saw two guys. One I knew. "Ah, I know you." He said with a smirk, leaning against the pool table. "You were going to my exes house." I turned my head and picked my stick up. "Come on, don't be like that. I don't have beef with you; Vanessa can do whatever or whoever she wants."

"You know this cat, Y/nn?" Jospeh asked suspiciously.

"I wouldn't say we know one another." Will grabbed a stick and held it up. "But this is a perfect way to get to know one another."

"And if I don't wanna know you?" He simply took a sip of his beer before raising up and walking over to me. I cautiously watched him, my hands gripping the pool stick.

Just as he reached me, he brought his voice down to a whisper. "By the way you looked when you saw me, I'm sure you found out about my adorable offspring." My eyes turned to slits as he smirked. "I'm assuming you wanna get in good with the baby daddy?"

"Get in good with- Vanessa doesn't even fuck with you bro." His smirk dropped.

"I'm working on it." He took a swig of his beer with a shrug and I saw his hand reach towards to me a bit too quickly for my liking. So, I instinctively grabbed his wrist and spun him around, pinning his arm behind his back while I pulled the pool ball stick to his neck. "Easy.. easy." He breathed out and I saw Joseph start forward apprehensively. "I was just reaching for a the rack man.. so we can play."

I clenched my jaw before moving the stick and shoving him forward. "I'm not interested."

He stumbled before looking back, pushing his curls back. "Listen, don't blame Vanessa.. it was my fault." I furrowed my eyebrows. "I may seem like an asshole but I really just want my daughter in my life. Could you talk to her?"

I turned and put the stick back on the shelf. "We're not exactly on speaking turns.. but nice try. I'm not doing your dirty work." I nodded at Joseph who was still watching closely. "Ready bro?"
