Love Don't Change • Chris Brown

A December to Remember

Riley

"It's another Christmas holiday
It's a joyous thing let the angels sing
Cause we're together
We got a thing can't let it slip away
No, outside its raining sleet
When our bodies meet
I don't care about the weather."

After cutting on the speaker and connecting my phone I went back into the room where Chris now had a pillow covering his head. I sucked my teeth and removed it from him, gently placing Noah next to him where he began to suck away at his shoulder.

"Bae turn that loud shit down, you see I'm in here sleep."

"Same thing you do to me, huh? Get up big head."

"When I wake you up it's for a reason."

"And I have a reason, it's two in the afternoon, and it's Christmas! RoRo wanna open her gifts."

Chris groaned loudly and dramatically before finally getting up and embracing Noah in a hug and kiss. "What the hell my son wearing?" Chris held Noey up to check out his outfit, a grey sleeper with a Christmas tree and the words "My First Christmas" written in bold letters.

"It's a Christmas sleeper. Ny's is green. Ain't it cute?"

"Nah it's corny." Chris stated, rolling himself out of bed. I rolled my eyes and took my baby back from him. "You corny nigga. Respect the drip."

He shooed me off and sat up to peck my lips. "Let me get situated I'a be out there."

"Okay, hurry up." I headed back to the living room with Ny and Ro where she was attempting to ballroom dance on the couch with Ny. Though I never doubted it, Royalty is the best big sister ever. She's so gentle with Ny and No and loves them to death. I still take proper precautions when I leave them alone but I've never had to fear for their safety or life with her.

"Daddy's gonna fix his stinky breath first then you can open your gifts boo okay?"

"Okay! Me, Noey, Ny, and daddy got you a gift too."

"Oh really?" I questioned. "What is it?"

A smile crept on her face before she shook her head. "No, not yet."

"What if I tell you one of your gifts?" I attempted to bribe. She thought for a few seconds before laughing and shaking her head harder. "Nope!"

"Fine. C'mon let's open Noey and Ny's present for them." I handed her one of the small boxes and we simultaneously ripped it open, revealing a teething rattle for both of them. Neither of the kids got as many gifts as they deserve this Christmas since we're not in the comfort of our own place, but I know their family here is gonna deck them out with enough, plus when we do make it back to LA, Ro's gonna get anything she wants.

I gave Noey and Ny their toys, Noah instantly started gnawing at his while Nayeli shook hers uncontrollably.

"Mmcht, you got my oldest baby looking corny too?" I heard Chris say as he walked down the stairs, referring to Royalty's red Santa Claus onesie.

"You just jealous." I threw a piece of wrapping paper at him as he approached us, plopping on the couch and pulling Ny on his lap. "You want some hot cocoa?"

"Nah not right now, after I get this toothpaste taste out my mouth."

"Daddy you're done fixing your stinky breath?" I heard Royalty ask. "Not yet, I'm waiting on mommy to fix her stinky box first."
