I'LL SHOW YOU

Beyonce POV

Spring break wasn't all that good at the beginning but it ended up amazing at the end. I enjoyed being with my children and husband. Shawn's parents were so generous to let us stay in their house.

"Please take the bags and the rest of the stuff up to our room," Shawn said to the kids as we entered the house.

"Otay daddy," Dave said trying to drag the heavy bag. "Oh my goat! Its heavy," he grunted as he tried dragging the bag.

Sam busted out laughing. "Let me help you before you hurt yourself baby bro," she said helping him.

I watched my kids take the bags upstairs. I then walked away.

"Where you going?" Shawn asked me.

"Kitchen. We're hungry," I said.

He followed me into the kitchen. "You hungry already?" He asked and I nodded. "Please make me a sandwich my sexy queen," he said innocently.

I busted out laughing. "You're so cute when you want something. Don't worry, I'll make you one," I said going to him and I pecked his lips.

"Tank you," he said imitating Dave.

I rolled my eyes and I proceeded to make sandwiches for us. I placed his sandwich on a plate and I gave it to him and I made myself comfortable on the kitchen island with him.

"So are you still gonna work from home?" I asked as I held my sandwich and Shawn shook his head. "Why?"

"I'm taking time off work. We pregnant remember?"

"We?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

He slightly chuckled. "Yes, we seven months pregnant. I wanna personally take care of you since you are prone to high blood pressure," he said.

He's so caring. One of the things that attracted me to him.

"You don't have to do that. I'll be fine," I said.

He sucked his teeth. "Excuse you? I don't remember giving you a choice. I'm taking time off whether you like it or not. Plus, we gotta make that master bedroom slash baby room of ours," he said.

I sighed sharply. "When should we tell the kids about our decision?" I asked.

Just when he was about to answer I heard tiny footsteps hurtling towards the kitchen.

"Mommy, Sammy and Sky told me to ask you to pwease give them your caramel popcorn," he said.

"Dang it," I heard then Sam and Sky walked in the kitchen. "Dave, why did you say our names?" Sam asked.

"You guys were the ones that sent me," he said.

Sky came to me and placed her arm over my shoulders. "My dearest mother who I love most in this world. My ravishing mommy who is killing it with that baby bump. The woman that gave me life and carried my twin and I in her tummy for nine months. Can we please have some of your caramel popcorn?" She asked so nicely.

I stared at her blankly. "No," I said casually.

Sky looked at Shawn. "Dad, can you please ask mom," she said in her baby voice.

Shawn raised his hands up in defeat. "My hands are tied on this one kido," he said.

Sam came to me. "Mom please. We'll massage your feet for them."

"Shawn was already gonna massage my feet," I said.

"I was?" Shawn asked.

I shot him a death glare. "We pregnant remember?"

"Look, we'll buy you guys some since we're going out for dinner," Shawn said.

The twins went to Shawn and gave him a hug. "Thank you daddy," they said in unison and they went back upstairs.

I looked at Dave and he was gnawing at his nails anxiously. "Are you alright baby?" I asked and he shrugged.

Shawn picked him up and sat him on his lap. "What's eating you up mini me?" Shawn asked.

"I'm scared," Dave said lowly.

"Scared of what?" Shawn asked.

"What if I don't become the best big brother. I wanna be a good bigger sibling like Sammy and Sky. They are awesome at it," he said.

I went to him. "Don't worry baby. You're gonna do good. Don't be scared because mommy and daddy know you are gonna be the best big brother in the whole world," I said smiling.

"You really think so?" He said.

"We know so," Shawn assured him.

"Otay," he said and I kissed his cheek. Shawn let him go and he went upstairs.

I finished my food and went upstairs to freshen up in preparation for dinner.

"This place is dope," Sam said as we got seated in our table.

"A girl has gotta take selfies and post it on the gram," Sky said looking around.

The waiter came and we gave him our orders. I had to order extra food for obvious reasons.

"Listen here my babies," I spoke while looking at the kids. "Shawn and I have some news for you guys."

"Spill da tea giiiiirrrrrlll," Dave said snapping his fingers.

I looked at him in awe. "Who taught you that?" I said smiling.

"Shawty," he said smiling.

I shook my head. "Anyways, back to what I was saying. We've decided that we should move. We'll be moving into a new house and you guys are still gonna go to the same school."

Sam's eyes widened. "I'm sorry. I think my ears have a bit of a problem because I think I just heard you saying we're moving," she said.

"We are. Seeing that we don't have a room for the baby's nursery we have to move," Shawn said.

"Why? Why can't you have a miniature nursery in the master bedroom?" Sky whined.

"We can have that but what about in the long run? The baby ain't gonna remain a baby forever," I said.

"She does have a point. Imagine if your room was also your parents room. How are you suppose to sneak in boys?" Sam said looking at Sky.

"Excuse you?" I said with furrowed eyebrows.

"I'm kidding mom. Calm down before your blood pressure shoots up," Sam said slightly chuckling.

Sky nodded her head while looking at Sam. "You're right. Mom does have a point," she said.

"Point," Dave said out loud.

"Why did you say that?" Shawn asked, looking at Dave.

"I just wanted to be part of whatever you were talking about," he said shrugging. "I don't even know what you are talking about."

"Moving ain't bad. New people, new scenery. I'm down for it. What about you twinny?" Sam said looking at Sky.

"I'm fine with moving," Sky said.

"What about-... David, stop that," I spat as I turned and saw Dave busy blowing up bubbles with his saliva.

He giggled and wiped the saliva away. "Sorry," he said innocently.

Our food came and we all had a lovely dinner.
