Jewel POV

I walked up to the Walmart doors. More like waddled like a penguin. I went down the frozen food aisle and got some chicken, green beans, and ice cream. Gotta love your ice cream, right? I paid for the food at the counter and walked back to my car.

As I closed my trunk, I saw 3 sticky notes taped on my back window. I grabbed them all, hoped in the car, and drove off. At a red light, as I was going to read the notes, someone stopped beside me and rolled down their window.

"Ma'am, did you know your gas is leaking out? It's open and cut up." The light skinned boy said. He smiled and drove off. I furrowed my eye brows and looked through the rear view mirror.

"What the hell?" I whispered. I pulled over and dialed Aug's number. As the line picked up, I heard giggling and shushing. I pulled the phone from my ear, looked at it crazy, then put it back on my ear.

"Hello?" I yelled.

"Yeah, bae?" He answered.

"Nahhh. You can gone head and call your groupies 'bae'." I screamed into the phone, and hung up. I looked out to the city and sat on the hood of my car. I decided to just text my sister.

Jewel - Jamie, can you please come help me out with my car? My gas was leaking.

Jamie✨ - yeah, where are you?

Jewel - Gale St. The main street by Walmart.

Jamie✨ - okay. Be there in 10.

I locked my phone and went inside my car. I looked over at the passenger seat and saw the notes. I grabbed one.

You can always count on me to ruin your life. The first one read. I shivered and picked up another.

I hate to see little mini August to get hurt. :( The second one read. My baby? Who is this? I picked up the last one, afraid of what I was going to read.

The third one said:

August was already going to-

I got cut off by knocking on my window. I jumped and caught a breath when I realized it was my sister. I stepped out of the car.

"What you got there?" She asked. Looking at the note in my hand. I looked down at it and hid it behind my back.

"Oh nothing, just show me how to fix the car." I said looking at the car. She began telling me how to fix it, but I zoned out and tried to read the rest of the note. I was just getting past the part I read before when Jamie snatched it out of my hands and threw it. It landed in a little puddle on the ground. I watched as the pen smeared and the words disappeared. I sighed and glared at Jamie.

"What? You're not even listening to me." She screamed.

"I am!" I defended.

"Then tell me what I just said." She yelled, angrily. She stared at me as I looked down. "Exactly! You have a broke ass car, Jewel. I'm leaving." She said and stormed off. I watched as she pulled off, leaving me stranded at 7 o'clock at night. I began to walk to a nearby hotel. As I walked, an all blue lambo pulled up beside me. August. He rolled down the window and looked at me as I continued to walk.

"Jewel, come on. You can't walk around like this. Your 6 months pregnant. Please, let me take you home. With me. I love you." He pleaded. I stopped walking and glared at him.

"August. You just don't understand do you? You fuck up my life every fucking time you walk away from me for 10 minutes just to pick up something for me...you don't understand that you're the one harming the baby. You stress me out when you fuck around with your groupies and shit. Me stressing is not healthy for our baby, Aug. You're doing this to me..to us." I noticed I was crying and I wiped my tears. He got out of the car and stepped closer to me.

"Jewel, you know I love you right? You are the best thing to happen to me. I'm a player baby, but I'm here with only you. I don't fuck those girls. I flirt with them, but other then that my shit belongs to you. You know that right?" He preached. I stared at him and walked closer to him. He were only a couple of inches apart.

"I love you too." I smashed my lips to his and he held my back. I pulled away and he took off his jacket and put it over my shoulders. I smiled up at him as he walked me to the car. We talked in the car, laughed, played, and had good times. We were walking up the steps to the house laughing, when I felt a force against my stomach. I lunged forward and held my stomach. My eyes widened. Did my baby just kick?

"Aug?! The baby just kicked!" I cheered. I almost began to jump but stopped myself when I remembered my condition. I looked at August and a smirk spread across is face.

"What?" I asked.

"When that kick came, I planned to give you the good, good so this baby can come faster." He bit his bottom lip.

"Nigga! You ain't getting shit!" I said, playfully pushing his chest and walking in the house. I took a shower and went downstairs in some boy shorts and a beater. August was just the staring.

"What you looking at?" I snapped.

"Girl, don't do that shit. If you know you got a fat ass and you come down here with these little ass panties, what makes you think I'm not gone look?" He stated. I stared at him and laughed.

"I love you." I said laughing. He chuckled and pulled out his phone. It rang.

"Hello?" He answered.

...

"Yeah. I'm just gone be fired then I guess."

...

"Bye!" He hung up laughing.

"Who was that?" I asked looking through the drawers for something to cook.

"Nobody." He said. I looked back at him. I shook my head and just began to cook.
