"UNO OUT!" Carlos yells, putting his hands up. "I never lost my mojo, of course."

"This boy.." Gina laughs. I hold Athena in my lap as Nini rests her head on my shoulder. We were all sitting in a circle on the ground playing games that I was just waiting for someone to rage over.

"You make everything so difficult babe," Seb snorts, "I saw you look at my cards."

"Can you not expose me here? I just won!"

I shake my head with a chuckle. "He always cheats, there's not doubt about that."

"I do not, do not assume."

"I don't assume. I know." I wiggle my eyebrows before slightly pointing up my middle finger behind Athena so she doesn't see. Nini notices and hits my shoulder, causing me to pout.

"That's right, listen to Nini. Don't be rude." Carlos grins.

"Whatever y'all. No more games tonight. Anyone down to watch movies?" EJ questions.

"Sure. Athena, it's your bed time." Nini says, taking her from my lap. "I'll put her to bed, you guys find something to watch."

Nini gets up and brings our daughter with her, smiling and kissing her cheek. I try my best not to smile at the loves of my life.

"Mkay, What we watching?" Carlos says, getting up and laying down on the couch. "Something scary? Funny? Drama? Action? Start listing bitches." Athena was out of the room so he could honestly go nuts. "Whatcha got? Let's see....HBO and Netflix. Mkay, I can work with that."

I roll my eyes. "Anyone want some snacks? We have lays barbecue, hot Cheetos, some Izzys."

"Oh shut it boy," EJ snorts, "get the wine. I know you got some."

"Mm mn. Get me an Izzy and some hot Cheetos. I'm driving EJ back to our hotel tonight. Handsome, you can go all out with the wine." Gina joins seb and Carlos in the couch while I chuckle and head over to the kitchen. I take out an Izzy from the fridge and pop off the top before grabbing the bag of unopened hot Cheetos.

I head back and hand it to Gina, and she gives me a nice smile in return. I go back and grab the bottle of wine and some wine glasses. I hold the glasses in between my fingers and set them down gently on the table.

"Who wants one?" I question, looking at the remaining 3. They all raise their hands like children. "Gotcha."

I pour them glasses and hand it to them. I don't pour myself one out I keep 2 glasses out just in case I decide to change my mind.

"Mkay. So I say, we watch a comedy." I sigh, sitting on the couch. "Like Good Boys. I saw the trailer, it looks hilarious."

"I saw the trailer too. Has anyone seen the movie though?" Seb asks.
