Nicki was on her way to have the children refitted for their wedding dresses and suit. She had been in full mommy mode lately. Her babies made her forget about the mess she had made of her life. Helping Daria get better at her reading was a task but she was determined to get her baby girl on track. Ethan had been up under her giving her all the love she needed, she loved how they have had a special connection since he was born. He hadn't let her out of his sight in the past couple days. Zaria had been talking her ear off about this wedding. Nicki now knew that Zaria did not approve of the color scheme and thought the icing she picked for the cake tasted funny.
"Mommy do I have to wear a suite like daddy?"
"Yes Ethan, we've been over this already."
"Why can't I just wear a t-shirt and sneakers like daddy?"
"Your daddy is not wearing that." She pulled up to the location. "Hell he might not even be there." she mumbled to herself.
"Mommy do me and Daria have to match?" Zaria asked eating her sucker.
"Yes." Nicki got out the car and retrieved them as well.
"But why mommy?" Daria whined.
"Why don't you want to match your sister?"
"She's ugly." Daria said as they got on the elevator.
"I look just like you." Zaria rolled her neck a bit and Nicki snickered. "So you're ugly too."
"Stop it right now you two. You are wearing the same color so deal with it." Both girls huffed. "Give me that sucker little girl." Nicki took the sucker wrapped it up and took a wipe out to wipe her mouth and hands.
"Aww mommy I didn't get the bubble gum."
"You have more at home to eat."
The elevator doors opened and they walked in to meet with Vera again.
Safaree
Safaree had went to go stay with his mother for a couple of days until he got his head together. He knew his mom would have an answer for whatever he was going through. He still went to go spend time with the kids during their lunch everyday. When he looked at his girls he saw so much of their mother, it was hard to look at them when he was mad at her. To Safaree his kids were his world he just wish he could add Nicki to his permanently.
Safaree knew what he was getting himself into when he started messing around with Nicki again knowing she was taken. He never thought he would fall even more deeply in love with her. Safaree thought he would treat there affair as he did the rest of the women he had messed with since her. But Nicki would never be like the basic women he has dated.
"Safaree get up." His mother came in his room and snatched back the blinds letting in the rays from the sun.
"Ma no!" Safaree pulled the covers over his head and mumbled something inaudible.
"Yes and I mean now!"
Safaree felt the covers snatched from his possession.
"Why you trippin?" He yelled.
"Safaree Lloyd Samules if you ever live to see another day you bet not ever raise your voice at me again. Have you lost your mind?" She looked at him as if he were that little boy that use to run around getting into things around the neighborhood.
"I'm sorry ma, I didn't mean to disrespect you. What time is it?" He sat on the side of the bed rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
"Now that's better. It's past noon, you missed the kids lunch today."
"Damn, I'll go see them tomorrow."
"Safaree you need to go see them today. A child should never go a day without seeing there mother or father."
Safaree just huffed.
"Now I don't know what's going on between you and Nicki but you better fix it and fix it quick. You know how she gets when your not around."
"And that's my problem why?" He got up to go start his shower.
"That's the mother of your children not to mention your best friend." She looked at him confused by his actions.
"Well everything is not always about Nicki and what she wants and needs."
"Since when? It's been that way since you two were 13 years old, so why is it changing now?"
"I need to start thinking about me and my kids. Nicki is moving on with her life and it doesn't have me figured in to it." he clenched his jaw. His mother walked to him and placed her hand on his face.
"Baby you still love her, you need to go tell her."
"It doesn't matter now, she made her choice."
"What does that mean "She made her choice"?"
Safaree just moved past her and looked in his duffle for clothes to wear for the day. He couldn't tell his mother about the affair.
"Well I see you have shut down and I'm not going to get anything out of you. Your lunch is downstairs in the microwave." She walked towards the door but Safaree pulled her into a hug before she got to it.
"I love you mama."
"I love you too. Now hurry up and get ready, you need to eat something you look frail." Safaree laughed and let her go.
"Alright ma I'll be down in a few."
Later that night.
Nicki Was making the kids plates for dinner, Zaria said she was craving sloppy joe. What Zaria knew about cravings was beyond Nicki but the others agreed so that's what her babies got. The triplets were in the front room when the doorbell rang.
"Hey you three quiet down in there." Nicki wiped her hands and walked to the front door. She didn't look through the peep hole to check to see who it was she just opened the door. She was surprised to see who was standing on her front porch. "Hi." was all she managed to get out.
"Are the kids here?" Safaree asked showing he wasn't interested in small talk with her.
"Um yeah, come on in." She moved to the side to let him pass. She watched him disappear into the living room and heard the chipper sounds of the kids greeting their father.
Walking back into the kitchen she tried finding the words to apologize to Safaree for ever proposing the get involved with each other again.
"Mommy, mommy, can daddy stay for dinner?" Ethan was pulling Safaree by the hand into the kitchen.
"Naw E-man mommy probably wants to have time with you guys and Damon."
"Mommy please?" Ethan begged.
"if he doesn't have any plans it's alright if he stays." Nicki said turning around and putting food on Daria's plate.
"See daddy, so are you going to stay?" Ethan looked up at his daddy.
"Alright little man I'll stay."
"Yay." The kids yelled out.
"Go wash your hands ya little devils." Nicki ordered and made a crazy face at them. Daria returned an even crazier one before running off which shocked Nicki into laughter.
When the kids left the room there was an awkward silence between the two while Nicki put the plates on the table. Safaree just leaned against the island watching her, trying to figure out what to say but she beat him to it.
"Safaree I'm sorry." Nicki blurted out. Safaree stared at her for a second.
"Sorry for what?" he crossed his arms.
"For everything that has happened to get us to this point."
"And what point is that?"
"Where we can't even have a conversation that's not about the kids. We haven't spoken in days Safaree, that's not us. If i would have known that arrangement would hurt us as friends like this I would have never offered the idea."
"Yeah it was pretty selfish." Safaree said nonchalantly. Nicki was taken aback by his statement.
"I know, I'm trying to make things right."
I don;t think things can be right at this moment. Let's just get through this and I'll be out of you and Damon's home."
"Safaree please don't do this."
"Do what? What you asked? I'm giving you what you wanted."
"This is not what I wanted Safaree." She walked closer to him.
"You couldn't have possibly thought I wouldn't catch feelings while being intimate with you. You're lying if you say you did. Now we are here and can't go back. You chose Damon. The only thing I care about is my kids at this point." Safaree stopped when he heard the kids coming back so they moved away from each other. Nicki had tears in her eyes but wiped them quickly before the kids seen.
"You ready to eat daddy?" Zaria asked.
"Yeah baby girl, you gonna sit by daddy?"
"Yes." He pulled out her chair so she could sit then did the same for Daria. He always did gentlemen type things for his girls so they would know what they deserved from a man when the time came for them.
Nicki dropped his plate in front of him harder than was needed causing the children to jump.
"You can help your kids clean up after they are finished and put them to bed since you're in such a fatherly mood."
Nicki went around and kissed each of them goodnight then made her way upstairs. She couldn't be in the same space as him right now. She loved him and didn't like the feeling of being rejected by him. She pulled her finance book out to go over them and laid across the bed. Nicki slipped on her glasses but her phone rang before she could get focused.
"Hello."
"Hey baby, what you doin?"
"Nothing just going over the books. Where you at?" She leaned back against her pillows.
"On my way to you, why you going through your books?"
"Gotta make sure everything is going straight and everything is taken care of for the wedding."
"You need to get an accountant for all that stuff. I can get you one if you want, The accountant at my job is a very good one."
"No, I'm good baby."
"Okay suit yourself. Well tonight I got something for you." She could feel him smiling through the phone.
"Oh really? What do you have for me?" She put on her flirty voice.
"I can show you better than I can tell you."
"Well in that case I can't wait then." She giggled.
"Alright, well I'll be with you shortly. Love you."
"Love you too baby." She hung up.

Nicki fell asleep watching her TL speculate about what the wedding is going to look like. She didn't get the chance to put her finance book away.
Damon came walking through the door as Safaree was turning out the lights and headed home. Safaree was cordial but Damon knew something had changed in Safaree's attitude towards him. He would address it on a later date. Damon walked into the bedroom to find a sleeping Nicki sprawled out on the bed. He spotted the book next to her.
"Bingo." He slowly pulled the book from under her arm tucked her in and went to his study for the next several hours.

The Body That Loves You...
*Sooooooooo How's it going? OMG Don't you just LOVE Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded? If you don't go choke on a dick! If you haven't gotten the Album go to ----> http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/pink-friday-...-roman-reloaded/id512360310 and buy it! Alright Enjoy my Darlings. Oh and make sure you read my closing comments!*
The wedding was three weeks away and Nicki was more confused than ever. Her and Damon had gotten better and she had started to actually enjoy his company again. He went away with her for the month she had to go train for her movie. He helped her with the wedding plans while away, if she needed him to go take her finances while she was busy he didn't without protest. Then there was Safaree she just couldn't leave him alone, she needed him like the blues needs pain. It seems that month away from him only made her want him even more. When they were together with the kids it just felt right. Nicki knew he would lay down his life for her.
Nicki and Safaree met up with each other at the daycare to exchange the kids things. Nicki gave him Ethan's bag with a change of clothes in it because he was taking him to Ethan's friends house. Safaree brought Zaria's sweater to her. Not 10 minutes in each others presence and they were in the back of Nicki's Range getting busy in the schools parking lot. When it was over Safaree felt used, he told her it was the last time. He was done being her play toy whenever she felt like getting her jollies off. He got in his car and waited for the kids to be let out.
--
Nicki walked into the house from picking up the girls from school, Ethan was going over a friends house for the afternoon. The girls ran into the house and up to their room; Nicki went into the kitchen and was startled when she seen Damon standing in front of the fridge.
"Shit! You scared me." she looked at him.
"Sorry baby." he walked over to her trying to kiss her but she turned her head. "What's wrong with you?" he looked confused.
"I think I'm coming down with a cold." Which wasn't a lie she was coughing lately.
"I don't care babe give me a kiss I've missed you." he leaned in but again was denied.
"I care." she moved around him to put her smart water in the fridge. "How long have you been home?"
"I got in at 12:30. When I didn't see you and the kids i showered and caught up on some sleep." he stood behind her and kissed on her exposed neck. "I will be here for about a week."
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back today, i wasn't expecting you until next week?" she slid out of his grasp.
"I wanted to surprise you but it seems like you're just annoyed."
"I'm not annoyed."
"Obviously somethings wrong, you're being short with me." he leaned against the counter waiting for her to say something. "Well, tell me what's wrong."
"I told you nothing, just let it go Damon."
"No something has you upset with me and I don't need you mad."
"I said nothing so it's nothing." she tried walking past him but he grabbed her arm.
"Talk to me."
"Get off me." she tried breaking from his grip already knowing it was a lost cause. "You're hurting me." he let go but blocked her path.
"I didn't mean to hurt you but when you shut me out it makes me angry."
"What do you expect me to do? You are never here."
"Are we back to this again, i thought you got over that?"
"Back? Nigga we never left. I don't feel loved, do you understand that?" she raised her voice.
"Don't feel loved?" he repeated. "I tell you I love you all the time Nicki."
"Telling me and showing me are different."
"This is crazy." he backed up.
"What's up with Lesley?
"What about her?"
"You ever fuck her?" Nicki crossed her arms.
"Nicki you're being childish."
"Childish? There is a female in your room, who might I add I have never heard about nor met before and I'm childish for wanting to know if you slept with her or not?" Nicki said staring at him. "This woman has been around for a month and you have never once said anything about her and you expect me not to ask questions. You have left out of this city on several occasions for business" she did air quotes "in the past month. How am I suppose to react? So again I'm going to ask you one more time, have you cheated on me with this Lesley woman or any other woman since we have been together?" they locked eyes.
"Never once have I cheated on you with Lesley or any other woman Nicki." Nicki continued to stare at him trying to figure out if he was telling the truth but she couldn't get a read on him. "Now it's my turn to speak. You have to realize that I cannot cater to your every need Nicki. I try my best but I'm just one man, I try to be there for you as much as possible. I do love you Nicki, I wouldn't have asked you to marry me if I didn't. You have to trust me."
"I don't know who you are anymore. In these past months I can't name a single time where we have actually sat down and had a deep conversation with one another like we used to. You made time then so what's the problem now?" She waited for a response but he just looked at the floor. "Exactly, so are you sure you want to marry me?"
"Yes I'm sure. Nicki I..." he was cut off by his phone ringing. He picked it up and seen that it was his boss. "It's Mr. Wiseman."
"Answer it, I'm used to coming second." she walked passed him, he grabbed her hand but she snatched away and went upstairs.
"We'll finish this when I'm done." he answered the phone.
Nicki went upstairs to her room closing the door behind her. She picked up the phone to call her mom.
"Hello?"
"Mom i don't know if I can do this." Nicki said sitting on the side of the bed.
"Do what?"
"I don't know if I can marry Damon."
"What happened?"
"He's never here mommy. He makes promises he never keeps. I don't know what to do."
"Baby relationships are hard work. There will be times you can't stand him but you can't just give up because of it. Trials and tribulations are going to always pop up in a relationship no matter if it's with Damon or another you are with. It will never be a smooth ride. Do you still love Damon?"
"Yes mommy I do but he is never sensitive to my feelings. It's like i tell him something and it goes in one ear and out the other."
"Have you told him this."
"Yes on multiple occasions."
"Did you scream at him or did you tell him."
"What's the difference, I still told him."
"There is a big difference, If you screamed of course he wouldn't pay you attention. If you actually sat him down and said listen Damon this is what I need from you and this is how much of it i need. He would be more open to listening. But you yelling only shuts down the effective flow of communication."
Her mom was getting through to Nicki. She realized that when they did have the conversation she was mostly yelling at him. Now she had gone and accused him of cheating.
"You're right mommy. But I think I may have dug myself into a hole."
"What did you do?"
"Well I kind of accused him of sleeping with another woman and having a baby by one."
"Nicki."
"I know but I just have this gut feeling, and it keeps getting stronger and before I knew it i was confessing it to him."
"What did he say?"
"He says he has never slept with another woman."
"If you have no proof then don't bring it back up until you do. that's a very big accusation." Nicki sat and chewed her lip.
"I guess I need to go apologize. He's here for a week and I think I'll be apologizing for most of it."
"Well your mouth has always gotten you into trouble."
"I guess I learn one day."
"Won't be no time soon." Mrs. Maraj said laughing.
"Mommy." Nicki whined.
"It's true. Go and fix it and I will talk to you later."
"Okay, I love you."
"Love you too. Give my grand babies a kiss for me."
"I will and kiss daddy and lambchop for me." They hung up and Nicki went downstairs to find Damon. When she was about to walk out the room he was walking into the room. "Damon--"
"Nicki I'm really trying to make us work but you yelling never makes it easy."
"It's hard not to be mad and yell when you are always at work and never seem to make time for me. You drop everything when your job calls but when I need you you always have an excuse. This week I want to work on us while i have you here for the week." she wrapped her arms around him.
Damon groaned and sighed.
"What was that for?" Nicki asked looking up at him.
"I have to leave in a hour for a meeting."
Nicki dropped her arms.
"Let me guess, in Kentucky right?" She went back upstairs.
"Babe? I'll try to be back as soon as possible." he yelled.
He was meet with her door slamming shut.
Later that Night
Damon had to go check on the factory in Kentucky so once again she was left alone. She was pissed but that seemed to be her attitude lately. Nicki wondered what Safaree was up to, she called him.
Safaree was hanging out with his boys playing cards and drinking. He was unwinding from the hectic week he just had with Nicki. They had made appearances everyday this week on, radio shows, TV shows, she even did Watch What Happened to discuss the Real Housewives of Atlanta. That go a little messy because she got a tipsy on the show and start letting out too much of how she felt about the ladies.
It felt good to relax and not have to worry about running around and meeting Nicki's every demand. And he was also starting to feel bad because every spare moment they got he was buried deep inside knowing she wasn't a single woman. He didn't know what it was but he just couldn't get enough of her. It reminded him of when they were together. He was deep in thought when his phone went off, he saw it was Nicki.
"Hey, is something wrong with the kids?" he asked automatically.
"No calm down they are fine. They went with auntie Candi for the night."
"Oh okay."
"What are you doing?" she had her legs up against the head board.
"With Rex and them, why you need me to bring you something?" he got up from the table and went into another room, the music was to loud for him to hear.
"Define what you are willing to bring me." she said in a sultry voice. Safaree seen where this was headed and knew he had to stop it before it went to far.
"Nicki where is your fiancee?" he asked in a whisper.
"He just had an emergency conference he had to go to in Kentucky or I don't know, so he is somewhere in the sky. Come over and have fun with me daddy." she said in her pouty voice.
"No you have a man." he went back into the room and sat down watching the men play Spades, he wasn't trying to hear her tonight.
"Do you have your earphones with you?" she scooted away from the head board.
"Yeah why?"
"Plug them up to your phone."
"I don't have the ones with the mic, so you won't be able to hear me." he put some chips in his mouth.
"Just do it."
Safaree sighed digging in his pocket for his ear bud Beats by Dre earphones, he plugged them in.
"Safaree?" When he didn't answer she knew they were in.
Nicki had taken off her sweats. leaving her in nothing but her red lace thong and matching bra.
"Faree i wish you were hear with me right now. Holding me, among other things." Safaree knew he was slowly losing this battle. "Don't you want to touch me Safaree?" she was rubbing all over her body wishing they were Safaree's hands. "Come to me Safaree." he voice was dripping with lust. He thought about all the wicked things she could do with that tongue of hers. Nickis phone buzzed.
Safaree
No Nicki. I told you last time was it for us. STOP!
As quickly as she read the text she forgot it. "Now Safaree your not going to leave me hot, wet, and horny now are you?" she slipped two fingers into her center folds and began pleasuring herself. A moan escaped her lips which made Safaree shift in his seat. He looked around making sure no one was paying attention to him, they weren't.
"Mmmm Safaree." Nicki was laying it on thick. She wanted him and if she had to pull out the big guns she would.
Safaree
Stop Nicki, I'm around people.
"All the more reason to come see me, so I can help take care...Ooooo...that bulge in your pants." he looked down as he felt his pants getting tighter. He turned his attention back to her.
Nicki had dropped the phone next to her head and concentrated on her. She was working herself into a frenzy on her bed.
"Ahhh...Safaree." she moaned. "Ssss...." he could tell she quickened her pace by her breathing. "Mmmmmm...I...I need you Faree." he heard her cry out his name, then silence. Minutes later he heard movement on the other end. "I can go another three rounds are you going to make me go them alone?"
"Alright niggas, I'll catch y'all later." he jumped up from his seat.
"Where you goin?" Rex asked.
"I got business to take care of."
"At one in the morning?"
"Mind your business. Stay icy coons." Safaree text Nicki on his way out the door.
Safaree
I'll be over in 20. I'm not going easy on you this time either. ;)
Nicki
I'm starting round 2. Use your key.
Safaree hopped in his Bentley and took off hoping to make it by round three. "Damn she a freak." he said smiling.
After
"I've missed having your body whenever I want." Nicki was still straddling SB, kissing various spots on his chest.
Safaree just laid there staring off into space. He never thought he would be sleeping with another mans woman, this was truly a first.
"Why you acting like this?" he turned looking into her grey eyes, she was scowling.
"Acting like what?"
"Like you don't want to be here with me." Nicki pushed off him and got out of the bed with the comforter wrapped around her body. She headed to the bathroom. Safaree wrapped the sheet around his waist and followed her.
"Nicki what are you talking about, did I not just spend the last two hours sexing you the way asked me too?" he was confused where her attitude was coming from.
"You used to hold me and tell me you loved me after we made love." she stared at him through the mirror.
That was before you were someone else's girl he thought. "What do you want from me Nicki? I'm doing what we agreed to when we first started this. No strings attached, no emotions, just sex, remember?" he felt like an asshole saying that to her knowing how he felt about her, but this was what she wanted.
"Are you telling me us being together these past couple of months has meant absolutely nothing to you?" I shouldn't have asked that she thought.
He'd be lying if he said 'no' so he just said nothing at all. if she wanted him she would have to say the words or better yet she would have to call off her wedding to Damon.
"Wow silence...um...wow okay." she started fidgeting. How could I be so stupid he dropped me back then so why would he want me now. Especially after seeing I'm a cheater. "I'm going to shower, you can let yourself out." She nudged him out the bathroom.
"Nic--"
"No Safaree, I get it. Please just go." She was tearing up.
"I didn't mea--"
"I'm a big girl Safaree. I asked for this and i can deal with the consequences." He reached for her but she closed the door quickly.
Nicki walked to the mirror and stared at the woman staring back. "You will not cry. You made the rules so deal. You caught feelings, so it's your problem not his... then why do I feel so betrayed?" Nicki walked dropping the comforter and turned on the shower waiting for it to get to the right temperature, she stepped in. "Why can't you just keep your emotions to yourself?" she thought. "Because I still love him." she finally confessed above a whisper to herself. Her tears spilled over onto her cheeks. "FUCK!" she screamed sliding down the shower wall. With the water beating against her body Nicki sat and held herself as she sobbed.
Safaree POV
"Shit." he thought. He didn't mean to hurt her, be he didn't want to put his feelings out there to be rejected. If he could redo the past five minutes he would.
Safaree listened from his side of the door as he heard her mumble something then the shower started up. Minutes passed and he heard her sobs, his heart ached listening to her. He jiggled the handle already knowing it was locked. Safaree knew she wouldn't open the door nor would she come out if she knew he was still there. He gathered his clothes and left the room.
Half an hour later Nicki had pulled herself together enough to stand. She showered quickly trying to get back to her bed. Wrapping herself and hair in her towel she went to find clothes. Looking at the bed when she came out she noticed the linen had been switched.
Nicki was sitting on the bed thinking to herself when Safaree came into the room. She thought he had left. Nicki wiped the tears from her face.
"Listen I didn't mean too hurt you." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Just like a nigga." She rolled her eyes. "These tears aren't for you, there for me. Why are you still here?" She got under her covers.
"I needed to make sure you were okay."
"I'm fine now leave."
"Don't be like that." he sat on the side of the bed. Safaree reached out to touch her cheek but she batted his hand away quickly.
"Do not touch me."
"I heard you crying in the shower, do you want to talk about it?"
"No I don't want to talk about it Safaree. Now leave." he was getting pissed at how cold she was acting towards him.
"You practically begged me to come over here now you acting like I ain't shit!" he raised his voice which made her sit up in the bed.
"That's because you not shit." she pushed his head with a great force. "Get the fuck out." She hit him again. "Safaree get out." she coldly stated. Nicki began slapping and punching him in his face while tears streamed down his face. "I hate you Safaree. I hate you!" Safaree grabbed her arms trying to take control of the situation.
"Calm down."
"Get off me!" she tried pulling away but he just held her close to his body. He wished he could hold her like this when she was calm but the issue still remained that she belonged to another. Even now looking at her left ring finger and seeing the ring he didn't put there tore at him. Safaree noticed she had stopped fighting him and now clung to his body. She was again crying.
"Why do I continuously want what I can't have Faree?" It's like I never learn then end up heartbroken and confused." Nicki confessed. "I'm such a basket case, I don't blame you for not wanting me." she lifted from his embrace. "I'll be fine, you can go." Nicki felt like a fool and was embarrassed he had seen her act this way. "And don't worry this was the last time I'll call you for anything like this. From here on out it is strictly professional between us. Neither of us need this headache."
Safaree got up from the bed. He wanted to know what she was planning to do about the wedding. "So what about Damon?"
"I'm going to marry him and live my life."
"Do you love him?"
"I'll learn too. My kids love him and that's who I need to be thinking about." If she was going to completely get over Safaree she had to learn to look at him as nothing more than a friend like she used too. Nicki looked up at him and noticed he was clenching his jaw.
"Fine." he turned and swiftly left the room then eventually the house. Nicki watched from her window as he pulled off into the into the night, she watched until she could no longer see his tail lights.
Nicki went into the girls room for no particular reason. She noticed that Daria had left Tubsie her stuffed Rabbit. She knew Candi was having a time getting her to go to sleep. She would take it to her tomorrow. She turned out all the lights and climbed into the bed letting the worries of the day go and fell asleep.
One week Before the wedding
Nicki pulled up her laptop to see what the barbz were doing. She didn't want them to see her so she didn't tweet anything she just read her TL. She saw people talking about "onikafaree" and "dricki" this normally didn't annoy her, but the fact that she was so confused but felt that Safaree was the one she really wanted, she got emotional over the barbz talking about it. She decided to tweet.
@NICKIMINAJ: Tired of hiding my feelings.
The tl went crazy. Nicki was tired and decided to call it a night. She laid her phone on her nightstand and climbed into bed. Just as her phone started going off Damon walked in.
"Babe you going to sleep already?" Damon asked sitting on his side of the bed.
Nicki quickly turned her volume on her phone down and said "I have to get up really early and I don't want to wake you."
He didn't think much of it. "OK babe."
"Goodnight."
"I love you Nicki."
Nicki almost choked before saying it back... "I love you too Damon." she remembered that her phone had rung. She picked it up.
@SCAFFBEEZY: Come home.
She cried silently after reading this. She wanted to come home. She wanted to be with her kids and live with Safaree. She just wasn't ready to admit it to him or anybody.
"I'm going down to the studio to write, don't wait up for me." She left the room quickly.
She cued up everything and started playing the beats that different producers had given her. Before she zoned out completely she tweeted one last time.
@NICKIMINAJ
Emotionally: I'm Done. Mentally: I'm drained. Spiritually: I'm Dead. Physically: I smile.

The wedding was three weeks away and Nicki was more confused than ever. Her and Damon had gotten better and she had started to actually enjoy his company again. He went away with her for the month she had to go train for her movie. He helped her with the wedding plans while away, if she needed him to go take her finances while she was busy he didn't without protest. Then there was Safaree she just couldn't leave him alone, she needed him like the blues needs pain. It seems that month away from him only made her want him even more. When they were together with the kids it just felt right. Nicki knew he would lay down his life for her.
Nicki and Safaree met up with each other at the daycare to exchange the kids things. Nicki gave him Ethan's bag with a change of clothes in it because he was taking him to Ethan's friends house. Safaree brought Zaria's sweater to her. Not 10 minutes in each others presence and they were in the back of Nicki's Range getting busy in the schools parking lot. When it was over Safaree felt used, he told her it was the last time. He was done being her play toy whenever she felt like getting her jollies off. He got in his car and waited for the kids to be let out.
--
Nicki walked into the house from picking up the girls from school, Ethan was going over a friends house for the afternoon. The girls ran into the house and up to their room; Nicki went into the kitchen and was startled when she seen Damon standing in front of the fridge.
"Shit! You scared me." she looked at him.
"Sorry baby." he walked over to her trying to kiss her but she turned her head. "What's wrong with you?" he looked confused.
"I think I'm coming down with a cold." Which wasn't a lie she was coughing lately.
"I don't care babe give me a kiss I've missed you." he leaned in but again was denied.
"I care." she moved around him to put her smart water in the fridge. "How long have you been home?"
"I got in at 12:30. When I didn't see you and the kids i showered and caught up on some sleep." he stood behind her and kissed on her exposed neck. "I will be here for about a week."
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back today, i wasn't expecting you until next week?" she slid out of his grasp.
"I wanted to surprise you but it seems like you're just annoyed."
"I'm not annoyed."
"Obviously somethings wrong, you're being short with me." he leaned against the counter waiting for her to say something. "Well, tell me what's wrong."
"I told you nothing, just let it go Damon."
"No something has you upset with me and I don't need you mad."
"I said nothing so it's nothing." she tried walking past him but he grabbed her arm.
"Talk to me."
"Get off me." she tried breaking from his grip already knowing it was a lost cause. "You're hurting me." he let go but blocked her path.
"I didn't mean to hurt you but when you shut me out it makes me angry."
"What do you expect me to do? You are never here."
"Are we back to this again, i thought you got over that?"
"Back? Nigga we never left. I don't feel loved, do you understand that?" she raised her voice.
"Don't feel loved?" he repeated. "I tell you I love you all the time Nicki."
"Telling me and showing me are different."
"This is crazy." he backed up.
"What's up with Lesley?
"What about her?"
"You ever fuck her?" Nicki crossed her arms.
"Nicki you're being childish."
"Childish? There is a female in your room, who might I add I have never heard about nor met before and I'm childish for wanting to know if you slept with her or not?" Nicki said staring at him. "This woman has been around for a month and you have never once said anything about her and you expect me not to ask questions. You have left out of this city on several occasions for business" she did air quotes "in the past month. How am I suppose to react? So again I'm going to ask you one more time, have you cheated on me with this Lesley woman or any other woman since we have been together?" they locked eyes.
"Never once have I cheated on you with Lesley or any other woman Nicki." Nicki continued to stare at him trying to figure out if he was telling the truth but she couldn't get a read on him. "Now it's my turn to speak. You have to realize that I cannot cater to your every need Nicki. I try my best but I'm just one man, I try to be there for you as much as possible. I do love you Nicki, I wouldn't have asked you to marry me if I didn't. You have to trust me."
"I don't know who you are anymore. In these past months I can't name a single time where we have actually sat down and had a deep conversation with one another like we used to. You made time then so what's the problem now?" She waited for a response but he just looked at the floor. "Exactly, so are you sure you want to marry me?"
"Yes I'm sure. Nicki I..." he was cut off by his phone ringing. He picked it up and seen that it was his boss. "It's Mr. Wiseman."
"Answer it, I'm used to coming second." she walked passed him, he grabbed her hand but she snatched away and went upstairs.
"We'll finish this when I'm done." he answered the phone.
Nicki went upstairs to her room closing the door behind her. She picked up the phone to call her mom.
"Hello?"
"Mom i don't know if I can do this." Nicki said sitting on the side of the bed.
"Do what?"
"I don't know if I can marry Damon."
"What happened?"
"He's never here mommy. He makes promises he never keeps. I don't know what to do."
"Baby relationships are hard work. There will be times you can't stand him but you can't just give up because of it. Trials and tribulations are going to always pop up in a relationship no matter if it's with Damon or another you are with. It will never be a smooth ride. Do you still love Damon?"
"Yes mommy I do but he is never sensitive to my feelings. It's like i tell him something and it goes in one ear and out the other."
"Have you told him this."
"Yes on multiple occasions."
"Did you scream at him or did you tell him."
"What's the difference, I still told him."
"There is a big difference, If you screamed of course he wouldn't pay you attention. If you actually sat him down and said listen Damon this is what I need from you and this is how much of it i need. He would be more open to listening. But you yelling only shuts down the effective flow of communication."
Her mom was getting through to Nicki. She realized that when they did have the conversation she was mostly yelling at him. Now she had gone and accused him of cheating.
"You're right mommy. But I think I may have dug myself into a hole."
"What did you do?"
"Well I kind of accused him of sleeping with another woman and having a baby by one."
"Nicki."
"I know but I just have this gut feeling, and it keeps getting stronger and before I knew it i was confessing it to him."
"What did he say?"
"He says he has never slept with another woman."
"If you have no proof then don't bring it back up until you do. that's a very big accusation." Nicki sat and chewed her lip.
"I guess I need to go apologize. He's here for a week and I think I'll be apologizing for most of it."
"Well your mouth has always gotten you into trouble."
"I guess I learn one day."
"Won't be no time soon." Mrs. Maraj said laughing.
"Mommy." Nicki whined.
"It's true. Go and fix it and I will talk to you later."
"Okay, I love you."
"Love you too. Give my grand babies a kiss for me."
"I will and kiss daddy and lambchop for me." They hung up and Nicki went downstairs to find Damon. When she was about to walk out the room he was walking into the room. "Damon--"
"Nicki I'm really trying to make us work but you yelling never makes it easy."
"It's hard not to be mad and yell when you are always at work and never seem to make time for me. You drop everything when your job calls but when I need you you always have an excuse. This week I want to work on us while i have you here for the week." she wrapped her arms around him.
Damon groaned and sighed.
"What was that for?" Nicki asked looking up at him.
"I have to leave in a hour for a meeting."
Nicki dropped her arms.
"Let me guess, in Kentucky right?" She went back upstairs.
"Babe? I'll try to be back as soon as possible." he yelled.
He was meet with her door slamming shut.
Later that Night
Damon had to go check on the factory in Kentucky so once again she was left alone. She was pissed but that seemed to be her attitude lately. Nicki wondered what Safaree was up to, she called him.
Safaree was hanging out with his boys playing cards and drinking. He was unwinding from the hectic week he just had with Nicki. They had made appearances everyday this week on, radio shows, TV shows, she even did Watch What Happened to discuss the Real Housewives of Atlanta. That go a little messy because she got a tipsy on the show and start letting out too much of how she felt about the ladies.
It felt good to relax and not have to worry about running around and meeting Nicki's every demand. And he was also starting to feel bad because every spare moment they got he was buried deep inside knowing she wasn't a single woman. He didn't know what it was but he just couldn't get enough of her. It reminded him of when they were together. He was deep in thought when his phone went off, he saw it was Nicki.
"Hey, is something wrong with the kids?" he asked automatically.
"No calm down they are fine. They went with auntie Candi for the night."
"Oh okay."
"What are you doing?" she had her legs up against the head board.
"With Rex and them, why you need me to bring you something?" he got up from the table and went into another room, the music was to loud for him to hear.
"Define what you are willing to bring me." she said in a sultry voice. Safaree seen where this was headed and knew he had to stop it before it went to far.
"Nicki where is your fiancee?" he asked in a whisper.
"He just had an emergency conference he had to go to in Kentucky or I don't know, so he is somewhere in the sky. Come over and have fun with me daddy." she said in her pouty voice.
"No you have a man." he went back into the room and sat down watching the men play Spades, he wasn't trying to hear her tonight.
"Do you have your earphones with you?" she scooted away from the head board.
"Yeah why?"
"Plug them up to your phone."
"I don't have the ones with the mic, so you won't be able to hear me." he put some chips in his mouth.
"Just do it."
Safaree sighed digging in his pocket for his ear bud Beats by Dre earphones, he plugged them in.
"Safaree?" When he didn't answer she knew they were in.
Nicki had taken off her sweats. leaving her in nothing but her red lace thong and matching bra.
"Faree i wish you were hear with me right now. Holding me, among other things." Safaree knew he was slowly losing this battle. "Don't you want to touch me Safaree?" she was rubbing all over her body wishing they were Safaree's hands. "Come to me Safaree." he voice was dripping with lust. He thought about all the wicked things she could do with that tongue of hers. Nickis phone buzzed.
Safaree
No Nicki. I told you last time was it for us. STOP!
As quickly as she read the text she forgot it. "Now Safaree your not going to leave me hot, wet, and horny now are you?" she slipped two fingers into her center folds and began pleasuring herself. A moan escaped her lips which made Safaree shift in his seat. He looked around making sure no one was paying attention to him, they weren't.
"Mmmm Safaree." Nicki was laying it on thick. She wanted him and if she had to pull out the big guns she would.
Safaree
Stop Nicki, I'm around people.
"All the more reason to come see me, so I can help take care...Ooooo...that bulge in your pants." he looked down as he felt his pants getting tighter. He turned his attention back to her.
Nicki had dropped the phone next to her head and concentrated on her. She was working herself into a frenzy on her bed.
"Ahhh...Safaree." she moaned. "Ssss...." he could tell she quickened her pace by her breathing. "Mmmmmm...I...I need you Faree." he heard her cry out his name, then silence. Minutes later he heard movement on the other end. "I can go another three rounds are you going to make me go them alone?"
"Alright niggas, I'll catch y'all later." he jumped up from his seat.
"Where you goin?" Rex asked.
"I got business to take care of."
"At one in the morning?"
"Mind your business. Stay icy coons." Safaree text Nicki on his way out the door.
Safaree
I'll be over in 20. I'm not going easy on you this time either. ;)
Nicki
I'm starting round 2. Use your key.
Safaree hopped in his Bentley and took off hoping to make it by round three. "Damn she a freak." he said smiling.
After
"I've missed having your body whenever I want." Nicki was still straddling SB, kissing various spots on his chest.
Safaree just laid there staring off into space. He never thought he would be sleeping with another mans woman, this was truly a first.
"Why you acting like this?" he turned looking into her grey eyes, she was scowling.
"Acting like what?"
"Like you don't want to be here with me." Nicki pushed off him and got out of the bed with the comforter wrapped around her body. She headed to the bathroom. Safaree wrapped the sheet around his waist and followed her.
"Nicki what are you talking about, did I not just spend the last two hours sexing you the way asked me too?" he was confused where her attitude was coming from.
"You used to hold me and tell me you loved me after we made love." she stared at him through the mirror.
That was before you were someone else's girl he thought. "What do you want from me Nicki? I'm doing what we agreed to when we first started this. No strings attached, no emotions, just sex, remember?" he felt like an asshole saying that to her knowing how he felt about her, but this was what she wanted.
"Are you telling me us being together these past couple of months has meant absolutely nothing to you?" I shouldn't have asked that she thought.
He'd be lying if he said 'no' so he just said nothing at all. if she wanted him she would have to say the words or better yet she would have to call off her wedding to Damon.
"Wow silence...um...wow okay." she started fidgeting. How could I be so stupid he dropped me back then so why would he want me now. Especially after seeing I'm a cheater. "I'm going to shower, you can let yourself out." She nudged him out the bathroom.
"Nic--"
"No Safaree, I get it. Please just go." She was tearing up.
"I didn't mea--"
"I'm a big girl Safaree. I asked for this and i can deal with the consequences." He reached for her but she closed the door quickly.
Nicki walked to the mirror and stared at the woman staring back. "You will not cry. You made the rules so deal. You caught feelings, so it's your problem not his... then why do I feel so betrayed?" Nicki walked dropping the comforter and turned on the shower waiting for it to get to the right temperature, she stepped in. "Why can't you just keep your emotions to yourself?" she thought. "Because I still love him." she finally confessed above a whisper to herself. Her tears spilled over onto her cheeks. "FUCK!" she screamed sliding down the shower wall. With the water beating against her body Nicki sat and held herself as she sobbed.
Safaree POV
"Shit." he thought. He didn't mean to hurt her, be he didn't want to put his feelings out there to be rejected. If he could redo the past five minutes he would.
Safaree listened from his side of the door as he heard her mumble something then the shower started up. Minutes passed and he heard her sobs, his heart ached listening to her. He jiggled the handle already knowing it was locked. Safaree knew she wouldn't open the door nor would she come out if she knew he was still there. He gathered his clothes and left the room.
Half an hour later Nicki had pulled herself together enough to stand. She showered quickly trying to get back to her bed. Wrapping herself and hair in her towel she went to find clothes. Looking at the bed when she came out she noticed the linen had been switched.
Nicki was sitting on the bed thinking to herself when Safaree came into the room. She thought he had left. Nicki wiped the tears from her face.
"Listen I didn't mean too hurt you." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Just like a nigga." She rolled her eyes. "These tears aren't for you, there for me. Why are you still here?" She got under her covers.
"I needed to make sure you were okay."
"I'm fine now leave."
"Don't be like that." he sat on the side of the bed. Safaree reached out to touch her cheek but she batted his hand away quickly.
"Do not touch me."
"I heard you crying in the shower, do you want to talk about it?"
"No I don't want to talk about it Safaree. Now leave." he was getting pissed at how cold she was acting towards him.
"You practically begged me to come over here now you acting like I ain't shit!" he raised his voice which made her sit up in the bed.
"That's because you not shit." she pushed his head with a great force. "Get the fuck out." She hit him again. "Safaree get out." she coldly stated. Nicki began slapping and punching him in his face while tears streamed down his face. "I hate you Safaree. I hate you!" Safaree grabbed her arms trying to take control of the situation.
"Calm down."
"Get off me!" she tried pulling away but he just held her close to his body. He wished he could hold her like this when she was calm but the issue still remained that she belonged to another. Even now looking at her left ring finger and seeing the ring he didn't put there tore at him. Safaree noticed she had stopped fighting him and now clung to his body. She was again crying.
"Why do I continuously want what I can't have Faree?" It's like I never learn then end up heartbroken and confused." Nicki confessed. "I'm such a basket case, I don't blame you for not wanting me." she lifted from his embrace. "I'll be fine, you can go." Nicki felt like a fool and was embarrassed he had seen her act this way. "And don't worry this was the last time I'll call you for anything like this. From here on out it is strictly professional between us. Neither of us need this headache."
Safaree got up from the bed. He wanted to know what she was planning to do about the wedding. "So what about Damon?"
"I'm going to marry him and live my life."
"Do you love him?"
"I'll learn too. My kids love him and that's who I need to be thinking about." If she was going to completely get over Safaree she had to learn to look at him as nothing more than a friend like she used too. Nicki looked up at him and noticed he was clenching his jaw.
"Fine." he turned and swiftly left the room then eventually the house. Nicki watched from her window as he pulled off into the into the night, she watched until she could no longer see his tail lights.
Nicki went into the girls room for no particular reason. She noticed that Daria had left Tubsie her stuffed Rabbit. She knew Candi was having a time getting her to go to sleep. She would take it to her tomorrow. She turned out all the lights and climbed into the bed letting the worries of the day go and fell asleep.
One week Before the wedding
Nicki pulled up her laptop to see what the barbz were doing. She didn't want them to see her so she didn't tweet anything she just read her TL. She saw people talking about "onikafaree" and "dricki" this normally didn't annoy her, but the fact that she was so confused but felt that Safaree was the one she really wanted, she got emotional over the barbz talking about it. She decided to tweet.
@NICKIMINAJ: Tired of hiding my feelings.
The tl went crazy. Nicki was tired and decided to call it a night. She laid her phone on her nightstand and climbed into bed. Just as her phone started going off Damon walked in.
"Babe you going to sleep already?" Damon asked sitting on his side of the bed.
Nicki quickly turned her volume on her phone down and said "I have to get up really early and I don't want to wake you."
He didn't think much of it. "OK babe."
"Goodnight."
"I love you Nicki."
Nicki almost choked before saying it back... "I love you too Damon." she remembered that her phone had rung. She picked it up.
@SCAFFBEEZY: Come home.
She cried silently after reading this. She wanted to come home. She wanted to be with her kids and live with Safaree. She just wasn't ready to admit it to him or anybody.
"I'm going down to the studio to write, don't wait up for me." She left the room quickly.
She cued up everything and started playing the beats that different producers had given her. Before she zoned out completely she tweeted one last time.
@NICKIMINAJ
Emotionally: I'm Done. Mentally: I'm drained. Spiritually: I'm Dead. Physically: I smile.

Tuesday, April 3, 2012
Touchy, Touchy....
*It's been a month...wow! I'm sorry my darlings. I've been trying to get myself together in school and other things so i had to let go of the story for awhile, I hope you understand. *sigh* I hope you enjoy.*
Nicki woke up and was on a mission, she needed to find out who this Lesley chick was and was she a threat to her. She grabbed her phone and headed down to her study to call Phil. Nicki knew that they had been best friends since college but she was going to try her best to get it out of him. She dialed out and he picked up on the second ring.
"How is my beautiful soon to be sister-in-law?"
"She's doing fabulous, how about yourself?"
"I can't do to much complaining. Is that knuckle head Damon treating you okay?" this was her chance.
"Phil will you be honest with me?" she put on her vulnerable voice.
"I've never lied to you before so why would I lie now, what's wrong?" he sounded concerned.
"Is Damon cheating on me with his assistant?" the phone got quiet. She bit her lip and folded her legs up into the chair waiting on a response.
"No Nicki he is not cheating on you with her."
"Is it another woman?"
"No Nicki. Sis you have to stop stressing, you are the best woman he has ever had. He does not want another."
She sighed hearing the news but still feeling uneasy. She believed Phil was being honest but the feeling she thought would go away hadn't.
"Okay bro, well I have to go now."
"Oh so you just use me for information and get then get off the phone? I knew you didn't love me."
Nicki giggled.
"No it's not like that. I really do have things to do. Me and Safaree have to take the kids to the zoo. Ethan wants to go as a family even though they went a couple months back with Wilson's."
"My main man is running the house, that's what I like to hear."
"Shut up Phil, I gotta go. Thank you for answering my questions, I love you."
"Love you to sis, bye." he hung up.
Nicki sat for awhile in a trance trying to figure out her next move but was interrupted by Safaree plopping down on the couch next to her in the study.
"You could at least announce yourself." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Since when have ever done that? The kids ready?"
"Don't get comfortable like we don't have boundaries, and yes they're ready." Nicki got up from the couch.
Safaree got up and grabbed her by the waist and kissed the back of her neck, she pulled away.
"Damon is still in the house, are you crazy?" she whispered.
"You smell good Nic." he pulled her back to him and kissed her lips.
She fought him for as long as she could before she gave in, his lips felt amazing against hers. Nicki drew him as close as possible to her until she heard foot steps and pushed away trying to fix her clothes. Damon popped his head in the door.
"Hey babe...Oh hey Safaree, I didn't know you were here."
"Yeah I just got here." Safarees gaze never left Nicki, she was fiddling with her necklace.
"What did you need babe?" Nicki asked trying to get the two men out of the same room.
"I needed to know where you put my dry cleaning."
"In the hall closet and your new shoes are in there as well."
"Thanks." He pecked her lips. Safaree gave him a disgusted look as he watched Damon walked out the room. Nicki noticed.
"Safaree don't start that jealousy crap okay." she said in a hushed tone, not sure of how far Damon had gone.
"I'm not jealous of him, I know what I got." he said in a cocky tone.
"Know? You know what I let you think, okay. Like I said don't get comfortable, that stunt you just pulled was not cute." She looked at him and then walked out pissed off and horny as hell.
Damon's Office
Damon had a lot on his mind lately, he was trying to get his career back on track. If he could do that then he wouldn't have to go through with his plan. He was sitting at his desk in deep thought when Lesley came into his office.
"Boss man here are the papers Mr. Wiseman needs you to sign off on." She sat the papers on his desk in front of him. Then walked to go straighten up his table.
Damon watched her move about the room. He looked at her toned arms and could tell she hit the gym on a regular. He looked at her legs then moved up to her thighs, which weren't visible but could tell she was a thick chick.
"Damon!" he heard her yell and snapped him out of his observation.
"I'm sorry what did you say?" he looked up at her face.
"I said Sign the papers so I can give them back to him. We don't have time to waist, we have three factories down and your name on the line. By the way the guy's in California said their checks never arrived, I assured them that you had sent them off and it was probably the postal service." she said as a statement but was looking for him to confirm what she said.
Damon nodded his head and signed the papers, handing them back.
"I need you to get Keith on the phone and tell him to be ready to explain how this mess happened."
"Yes sir." Lesley left as swiftly as she had came.
Damon sat going over the new numbers when his private line rang, he figured it was Nicki just checking on him since he forgot to text her that he had made it to work. He ignored the call telling himself he would get to her later. Minutes later his iPhone buzzed, alerting him of a text message. He picked it up.
550-403-2012
So your not answering my calls now?
Damon didn't recognize the number.
M.L.
Who is this?
550-403-2012
Just know you have a month to get it together or I'm spilling your secret to the Barbie.
M.L.
I told you I would get what we needed, now stop harassing me about it.
Damon blocked the number because he knew the person wouldn't let him have a moments piece today if he didn't. He knew he had to find away to get what they wanted and fast.
@ the Zoo
Nicki had on her baseball cap with her ponytail pulled through the back. She wasn't decked out in anything crazy today, she sported some jeans, a purple v-neck, a black jacket with her white sneakers. She prayed no one spotted her because she wanted her kids to have a normal outing with their parents without people swarming them. She loved her fans but at times they could be a bit much.
"Mommy can we go see the polar bears and the bird that waddles?" Zaria asked eating her blue snow cone.
Nicki laughed at her request.
"It's called a penguin Zaria." Nicki wiped her daughters mouth. "Sure we can."
"And then can we go see the lions." Daria asked.
"We can go see anything you guys want too. So right now we are going to go see the polar bears." She looked up to see some girl all in Safaree's face. She got mad quickly, this was family day and he was giving his kool-aid smile to some other girl. "Safaree!" she yelled. His head whipped around.
"Who is that, your girl?" The girl nodded towards Nicki.
"No that's my baby mama, we are doing family day. Well it was nice meeting you Ashley, I have to go." Safaree walked away and back to Nicki.
Nicki glared at him and yanked Ethan and Zaria a little harder than she meant too. Safaree looked down at Daria.
"What's her problem?" he asked her, Daria just shrugged her shoulders.
Safaree grabbed her small hand and followed behind Nicki into the polar bear cave. It got dark in the cave until they arrived at the glass case that enclosed the polar bears as they swam underwater. Zaria ran up to the glass and watched the white bears swim around.
"Mommy look at the baby bear."
"I see baby." Nicki smiled seeing the enjoyment in her daughters face.
"Can we buy one?"
"Sure." Safaree answered walking up next to Nicki. She turned and glared at him once again.
"Really?" Zaria turned to him with wide eyes.
"No!" Nicki said. "They are too dangerous Zee."
"Mines won't be I promise." She put on her best pout face.
"No baby girl I was just joking. Besides mommy can't afford a polar bear."
"Mommy can buy anything, she will just put it on her card." Daria stated, looking at her dad like he was crazy.
Both Safaree and Nicki busted out laughing at her comment and her expression.
"Yo she looked at you like you had two heads." Nicki giggled. "Don't ever come for the kid." she punched him.
"What I tell you about hitting me?" he grabbed her wrist playfully.
"Get off me, go touch on your little friend back there."
"You jealous?"
"No." she walked away.
"Yes you are." he said under his breath and followed her and the kids out of the cave.
It was beginning to get chilly out side so she mad the kids put on there jackets. Than ran to go look at the penguins. Safaree walked up to her and grabbed her hand, she panicked and jerked her hand away quickly. She looked around to make sure no one seen.
"Calm down there is hardly anyone here besides old people." He grabbed her hand again. "So what's up with you and Damon? Is he still pulling the disappearing act on you?"
Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Why do you care? That does not affect you, I'm giving you what you want."
"And what is it you think I want?"
They stared at each other.
"All you want from me is--"
"Mommy it's time to go see the lions." Daria said cutting Nicki off and pulling at her other hand.
"Okay baby let's go." She dropped Safaree's hand. "Ethan you and Zaria grab daddies hand."
"I'm a big boy, I don't need to hold his hand."
"Boy if you don't grab his hand." Nicki gave him the look and he booked it over to Safaree.
"How you gone let her punk you playboy?" Safaree laughed. "Don't worry she still gets me at time with that face.
"Daddy I want to go to the petting zoo." Ethan said.
Safaree was always amazed at Ethan and his choices. He was such a gentle child when it came to everything. Safaree wrestled with Daria more than Ethan. But he didn't mind his sons gentle soul, he knew too many dudes from his old neighborhood that got caught up in the streets trying to be hard. If his son wanted to pet a baby goat then that's what he would take him to do.
"You got it coon."
--
Safaree was driving back to his house from the zoo. He was trying to figure out what Nicki was texting about that had her giggling and smiling. When he asked her on the way to the car she just smirked at him and continued her text message. Safaree had the feeling she was texting Damon and that had him agitated.
"What are you--"
"Mommy can we go to the Sugar Factory?" Zaria cut Safaree off before he could get his question out.
"Sure Z-Bear." She answered not looking up from her phone.
Safaree shook his head and pulled into the parking lot of the Sugar Factory. He didn't see how she got mad at him for talking to someone but she has all her attention on her phone during "Family Time". He stop the car with a jerk sending her phone flying to the ground.
Nicki put her hand out to stop fro hitting her head on the dashboard. The kids were fine because they were in there seats strapped in. Nicki once again glared at him. Safaree smiled.
"Sorry." he got out the car and began unstrapping Ethan.
Nicki got out and slammed his door shut,, she helped him get the other two out and they entered the store. The kids knew the routine, they had 20 minutes to go down each aisle and fill as many bags as they could with what ever candy they wanted. The Sugar Factory was an actual factory full of assorted candies, the kids never made it through all the aisles. They grabbed a couple of bags.
"1,2,3...go!" Safaree yelled and the kids darted different ways.
There were workers all over so they would have help. Nicki grabbed a bag and strolled down one of the aisle glancing over the candy. Safaree walked up beside her.
"So you mad at me?"
"I sure am not." She grabbed some gummy worms, putting one in her mouth.
"Yes you are." he bumped her slightly.
"No I'm not Safaree, now gone."
"I'm just trying to figure out why." he stated ignoring her. "You started acting funky right before we went to the polar bears at the zoo." he scratched his head then snapped his fingers. "That's it, you're jealous."
Nicki's jaw dropped.
"Jealous of what?"
"Of the girl I was talking to."
"Boy please nobody is jealous of some ratchet hoe named Ashley."
She looked around checking to see where the triplets were. Ethan was hand in hand with a white girl that worked at the store. Nicki laughed because she could see her son had a thing for white girls, not that she mind as long as the girl treated her baby well she didn't care who he ended up with.
"Oh so you remember her name?" Safaree found this funny because he didn't.
"Listen all I know is if you decide to start bedding other girls please let me know because that will be the end of our little arrangement." She walked to the back of the store with Safaree on her heels.
There wasn't anyone around in the section they were in. Safaree turned Nicki around and held her by waist.
"Are you still having sex with him?" Safaree questioned.
Nicki looked away.
"Answer my question Nicki. Are you still fucking Damon?"
"What business of it is yours?"
"You will always be my business Onika, now answer the question." he tightened his grip on her waist.
"No Safaree. I don't have sex with him anymore." she said in a hush tone.
"Are you lying to me?" they locked eyes.
"I don't have to lie to you, if I was sexing him I would tell you because I would want the same courtesy."
Safaree pecked her lips and let her go.
"Mommy is this to much?" Zaria came up to them with five bags full of candy.
"No it's not to much but you're done. Let's go up to the register and wait for your brother and sister to finish up." She looked up to Safaree. "Are we done here?"
"Are you still mad?" he asked.
"I was never mad, she didn't have a thing on me." Nicki walked away with all the confidence in the world.
Safaree's House
After the Sugar factory Safaree stopped by the story to get groceries for his house. He was going to cook dinner for the kids and Nicki. He had the macaroni & cheese and barbecue baked chicken in the oven and the greens soaking in the sink waiting to be picked.
"Nic." Safaree whispered her name while she was bent over putting the grapes in the fruit drawer of the fridge. She flipped her hair and stared back at him.
"What? And why are we whispering?" she stood up.
Safaree nodded for her to come to him; she placed the bag of oranges on the counter and walked up in front of him.
"What?" She asked again.
Safaree encircled her waist and began kissing her on her lips. She wrapped her arms around his neck and to engage in a more passionate kiss. Safaree gripped her ass making her more excited. He heard the kids running around upstairs and broke the kiss.
"Come on." he lead her around the corner and to the back of the house where the laundry room was. He pulled her in and closed the door pinning her to it.
"You can't take to long okay." Nicki her hands over his chest.
"Shh." he he ran his tongue over her bottom lip before kissing her fully again.
"I'm serious Safaree." she said in between kisses.
Safaree ripped her blouse open exposing her leopard bra. He kissed the side of her neck trailing down to her full breast. He picked her up and put her on the washing machine that was currently on the spin cycle. Safaree watched her breast shake back and forth before eventually removing the bra.
"Safaree hurry."
"I'm not rushing this so chill. The kids will be fine." he never looked up at her, just continued to fondle her breast. He teased her nipples with his thumb and index finger making her inhale deeply. He kissed her collar bone listening to her pant.
"Safaree stop playing." she went for his belt buckle but he knocked her hand away.
"You'll get that when I'm ready for you to have it." Safaree rolled her skirt up over her hips and leaned her back.
Nicki new what time it was and was ready to take all he was about to give. After removing her undies he began to orally please her. She rocked her hips to the rhythm of his tongue.
"Right there." she mumbled. She knew he was able to get her to her climax within minutes, so she didn't understand why it hadn't happened yet, she should be working on number two. Nicki looked down at him to find him staring back. "What are you doing down there? Stop playing games."
"Why didn't you say you wanted that?" he smirked.
Nicki clamped her legs around his head trapping him with his face buried in her sweet spot. He pried her legs open.
"Stop playing." he bit her thigh.
"Safaree no! That's going to leave a mark, what am I supposed to tell Damon?" He shrugged his shoulders and went back to eating.
--
Nicki walked into her house with the kids moving at a snail pace behind her. Her and Safaree tired them out at his house after they tired out in the laundry room or until Ethan came and knocked on the door looking for his Tarzan movie.
"Come on slow pokes up to bed, you can take your baths in the morning."
"Mommy can I have some water?" Zaria asked.
"Yes I'll bring you some up, go put on your pajamas."
Nicki went and checked her messages in the kitchen and sort through her mail that Damon left on the counter. Nothing important but she did have a envelope addressed to her that didn't look business related. Damon came into the kitchen and looked at her funny so she gave him a funky face back while listening to the last message. She deleted the message from her mom asking her to call and check on her little brother.
"What you looking at?"
"Who's clothes are you wearing?"
Nicki looked down and saw that she was wearing Safarees sweats and shirt. She couldn't wear her shirt because he had ripped the buttons off of it so she grabbed one of his clean shirts out of the dryer along with his sweats.
"Oh I spilled juice all over my outfit at Safarees house, so I stole some of his clothes." She went and grabbed a cup to give Zaria her water.
"Oh oh okay. So did you think anymore on that proposal.?"
Nicki sighed and put the water back into the fridge then turned around to look at him.
"Babe I told you give me a minute, I've been with my family all day. Besides I'm going to need you to actually put a portfolio together before I agree to do anything." Nicki walked out the kitchen to go tend to the children.
"Damn." he said under his breath. He had to think of a different approach, he couldn't let his secrete go public.
*Not to much. I hope I still have your interest with the story. 20-30 comments before the next chapter. To new readers NEVER speak about my story on the TL. DMs or on here ONLY please. Until next time, smooches.*
Nicki woke up and was on a mission, she needed to find out who this Lesley chick was and was she a threat to her. She grabbed her phone and headed down to her study to call Phil. Nicki knew that they had been best friends since college but she was going to try her best to get it out of him. She dialed out and he picked up on the second ring.
"How is my beautiful soon to be sister-in-law?"
"She's doing fabulous, how about yourself?"
"I can't do to much complaining. Is that knuckle head Damon treating you okay?" this was her chance.
"Phil will you be honest with me?" she put on her vulnerable voice.
"I've never lied to you before so why would I lie now, what's wrong?" he sounded concerned.
"Is Damon cheating on me with his assistant?" the phone got quiet. She bit her lip and folded her legs up into the chair waiting on a response.
"No Nicki he is not cheating on you with her."
"Is it another woman?"
"No Nicki. Sis you have to stop stressing, you are the best woman he has ever had. He does not want another."
She sighed hearing the news but still feeling uneasy. She believed Phil was being honest but the feeling she thought would go away hadn't.
"Okay bro, well I have to go now."
"Oh so you just use me for information and get then get off the phone? I knew you didn't love me."
Nicki giggled.
"No it's not like that. I really do have things to do. Me and Safaree have to take the kids to the zoo. Ethan wants to go as a family even though they went a couple months back with Wilson's."
"My main man is running the house, that's what I like to hear."
"Shut up Phil, I gotta go. Thank you for answering my questions, I love you."
"Love you to sis, bye." he hung up.
Nicki sat for awhile in a trance trying to figure out her next move but was interrupted by Safaree plopping down on the couch next to her in the study.
"You could at least announce yourself." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Since when have ever done that? The kids ready?"
"Don't get comfortable like we don't have boundaries, and yes they're ready." Nicki got up from the couch.
Safaree got up and grabbed her by the waist and kissed the back of her neck, she pulled away.
"Damon is still in the house, are you crazy?" she whispered.
"You smell good Nic." he pulled her back to him and kissed her lips.
She fought him for as long as she could before she gave in, his lips felt amazing against hers. Nicki drew him as close as possible to her until she heard foot steps and pushed away trying to fix her clothes. Damon popped his head in the door.
"Hey babe...Oh hey Safaree, I didn't know you were here."
"Yeah I just got here." Safarees gaze never left Nicki, she was fiddling with her necklace.
"What did you need babe?" Nicki asked trying to get the two men out of the same room.
"I needed to know where you put my dry cleaning."
"In the hall closet and your new shoes are in there as well."
"Thanks." He pecked her lips. Safaree gave him a disgusted look as he watched Damon walked out the room. Nicki noticed.
"Safaree don't start that jealousy crap okay." she said in a hushed tone, not sure of how far Damon had gone.
"I'm not jealous of him, I know what I got." he said in a cocky tone.
"Know? You know what I let you think, okay. Like I said don't get comfortable, that stunt you just pulled was not cute." She looked at him and then walked out pissed off and horny as hell.
Damon's Office
Damon had a lot on his mind lately, he was trying to get his career back on track. If he could do that then he wouldn't have to go through with his plan. He was sitting at his desk in deep thought when Lesley came into his office.
"Boss man here are the papers Mr. Wiseman needs you to sign off on." She sat the papers on his desk in front of him. Then walked to go straighten up his table.
Damon watched her move about the room. He looked at her toned arms and could tell she hit the gym on a regular. He looked at her legs then moved up to her thighs, which weren't visible but could tell she was a thick chick.
"Damon!" he heard her yell and snapped him out of his observation.
"I'm sorry what did you say?" he looked up at her face.
"I said Sign the papers so I can give them back to him. We don't have time to waist, we have three factories down and your name on the line. By the way the guy's in California said their checks never arrived, I assured them that you had sent them off and it was probably the postal service." she said as a statement but was looking for him to confirm what she said.
Damon nodded his head and signed the papers, handing them back.
"I need you to get Keith on the phone and tell him to be ready to explain how this mess happened."
"Yes sir." Lesley left as swiftly as she had came.
Damon sat going over the new numbers when his private line rang, he figured it was Nicki just checking on him since he forgot to text her that he had made it to work. He ignored the call telling himself he would get to her later. Minutes later his iPhone buzzed, alerting him of a text message. He picked it up.
550-403-2012
So your not answering my calls now?
Damon didn't recognize the number.
M.L.
Who is this?
550-403-2012
Just know you have a month to get it together or I'm spilling your secret to the Barbie.
M.L.
I told you I would get what we needed, now stop harassing me about it.
Damon blocked the number because he knew the person wouldn't let him have a moments piece today if he didn't. He knew he had to find away to get what they wanted and fast.
@ the Zoo
Nicki had on her baseball cap with her ponytail pulled through the back. She wasn't decked out in anything crazy today, she sported some jeans, a purple v-neck, a black jacket with her white sneakers. She prayed no one spotted her because she wanted her kids to have a normal outing with their parents without people swarming them. She loved her fans but at times they could be a bit much.
"Mommy can we go see the polar bears and the bird that waddles?" Zaria asked eating her blue snow cone.
Nicki laughed at her request.
"It's called a penguin Zaria." Nicki wiped her daughters mouth. "Sure we can."
"And then can we go see the lions." Daria asked.
"We can go see anything you guys want too. So right now we are going to go see the polar bears." She looked up to see some girl all in Safaree's face. She got mad quickly, this was family day and he was giving his kool-aid smile to some other girl. "Safaree!" she yelled. His head whipped around.
"Who is that, your girl?" The girl nodded towards Nicki.
"No that's my baby mama, we are doing family day. Well it was nice meeting you Ashley, I have to go." Safaree walked away and back to Nicki.
Nicki glared at him and yanked Ethan and Zaria a little harder than she meant too. Safaree looked down at Daria.
"What's her problem?" he asked her, Daria just shrugged her shoulders.
Safaree grabbed her small hand and followed behind Nicki into the polar bear cave. It got dark in the cave until they arrived at the glass case that enclosed the polar bears as they swam underwater. Zaria ran up to the glass and watched the white bears swim around.
"Mommy look at the baby bear."
"I see baby." Nicki smiled seeing the enjoyment in her daughters face.
"Can we buy one?"
"Sure." Safaree answered walking up next to Nicki. She turned and glared at him once again.
"Really?" Zaria turned to him with wide eyes.
"No!" Nicki said. "They are too dangerous Zee."
"Mines won't be I promise." She put on her best pout face.
"No baby girl I was just joking. Besides mommy can't afford a polar bear."
"Mommy can buy anything, she will just put it on her card." Daria stated, looking at her dad like he was crazy.
Both Safaree and Nicki busted out laughing at her comment and her expression.
"Yo she looked at you like you had two heads." Nicki giggled. "Don't ever come for the kid." she punched him.
"What I tell you about hitting me?" he grabbed her wrist playfully.
"Get off me, go touch on your little friend back there."
"You jealous?"
"No." she walked away.
"Yes you are." he said under his breath and followed her and the kids out of the cave.
It was beginning to get chilly out side so she mad the kids put on there jackets. Than ran to go look at the penguins. Safaree walked up to her and grabbed her hand, she panicked and jerked her hand away quickly. She looked around to make sure no one seen.

"And what is it you think I want?"
They stared at each other.
"All you want from me is--"
"Mommy it's time to go see the lions." Daria said cutting Nicki off and pulling at her other hand.
"Okay baby let's go." She dropped Safaree's hand. "Ethan you and Zaria grab daddies hand."
"I'm a big boy, I don't need to hold his hand."
"Boy if you don't grab his hand." Nicki gave him the look and he booked it over to Safaree.
"How you gone let her punk you playboy?" Safaree laughed. "Don't worry she still gets me at time with that face.
"Daddy I want to go to the petting zoo." Ethan said.
Safaree was always amazed at Ethan and his choices. He was such a gentle child when it came to everything. Safaree wrestled with Daria more than Ethan. But he didn't mind his sons gentle soul, he knew too many dudes from his old neighborhood that got caught up in the streets trying to be hard. If his son wanted to pet a baby goat then that's what he would take him to do.
"You got it coon."

Safaree was driving back to his house from the zoo. He was trying to figure out what Nicki was texting about that had her giggling and smiling. When he asked her on the way to the car she just smirked at him and continued her text message. Safaree had the feeling she was texting Damon and that had him agitated.
"What are you--"
"Mommy can we go to the Sugar Factory?" Zaria cut Safaree off before he could get his question out.
"Sure Z-Bear." She answered not looking up from her phone.
Safaree shook his head and pulled into the parking lot of the Sugar Factory. He didn't see how she got mad at him for talking to someone but she has all her attention on her phone during "Family Time". He stop the car with a jerk sending her phone flying to the ground.

Safaree's House
After the Sugar factory Safaree stopped by the story to get groceries for his house. He was going to cook dinner for the kids and Nicki. He had the macaroni & cheese and barbecue baked chicken in the oven and the greens soaking in the sink waiting to be picked.
"Nic." Safaree whispered her name while she was bent over putting the grapes in the fruit drawer of the fridge. She flipped her hair and stared back at him.
"What? And why are we whispering?" she stood up.
Safaree nodded for her to come to him; she placed the bag of oranges on the counter and walked up in front of him.

"Come on slow pokes up to bed, you can take your baths in the morning."
"Mommy can I have some water?" Zaria asked.
"Yes I'll bring you some up, go put on your pajamas."
Nicki went and checked her messages in the kitchen and sort through her mail that Damon left on the counter. Nothing important but she did have a envelope addressed to her that didn't look business related.

V-Day....One Shot....
*Remember this has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL BOUND TO YOU STORY. Just something I got talked into writing! *side eyes the two* This was supposed to go up on Valentines day but it didn't happen. Onikafaree bitches!*
Nicki was downstairs on the phone with Martin and Lauren making the final arrangements for her perfect Valentines day with Safaree. Safaree had been so busy with the kids and their activities while she finished up her fourth album that she knew he didn't have time to plan anything for her. She loved her husband so much for all that he did so she wanted to make him feel special today.
"Martin are the red roses on their way here?" Nicki asked biting the corner of her bottom lip.
"Yes they are on their way Nicki they should be arriving at any moment. The edible arrangements arrived already right?"
"Yes it's here in the fridge."
"Lauren you called and made the order at Kenny's right?"
"Yes the food should arrive around seven if not eight. The chef said they are expecting a big rush tonight and not to be mad at him." Nicki smiled.
"I could never be mad at him. I love that little old man" she smiled.
"Well Nicki everything else you handled so everything is in place for your day with hubby." Lauren said closing her notepad.
"Okay well I will talk to you guys tomorrow. Remember if its not life altering or about the kids don't call this house."
"Nobody is going to interrupt your freak session." Lauren said rolling her eyes as if Nicki could see her.
"That's my cue, talk to you later boss." Martin hung up the phone before she could give a response.
"You would think after all these years he would get comfortable with our conversations." Nicki said giggling. "Well boo don't let the kids run over you, if they give you problems you know what to do."
"Yes ma'am. Bye hun."
"Bye."
Nicki hung up the phone and looked over at the clock, it read seven-forty-five. She hopped up and went into Safaree's study to finish setting up everything, all that was needed was the flowers she had ordered him. She heard a van door shut and raced to the front door as quickly as possible before the delivery guy had a chance to ring the doorbell and possibly wake Safaree. She peeped through the side window and made sure it was the flowers then opened the door startling the Latin man.
"Hello." he greeted her.
"Good morning." Nicki smiled at the old man.
"I need your signature right here." he handed her the clip board. Nicki briefly went over what it said, her mama taught her never to sign anything without first reading it. She glanced up then smirked at the man, he was checking out her body. She couldn't blame him tho, she was only in her robe which stopped high up her thigh and she was wearing pumps.
"Here you go sir." she said bring the man out of his thoughts. She let the other two men that were with him walk passed her into the house. "Turn left and it is the first room on the right."
"Your husband is one lucky man." Nicki turned back and looked at him.
"Yes, he is." the two men exited her home. "Have a great day."
"You do the same." she closed the door as he turned to leave.
She walked in and arranged the flowers like she wanted them to be. Today had to be perfect for Safaree. She looked at the clock and knew that he was about to get up and do his morning routine. Relieve himself, shower, and then enter his study to work on things for his jewelry business. He loved that store and was on the verge of opening another in New York. Him taking online classes and getting his degree in Business and talking classes on gems really paid off.
Nicki heard the faint sound of water running so she hurried to the kitchen and grabbed the fruit arrangement out of the fridge and brought it back to the study. She plucked a pineapple off of it and popped it in her mouth. She sat in his leather chair behind his desk and waited for him to come down.
Safaree put on some sweat pants after applying lotion to his body, leaving his upper half bare. He walked downstairs thinking he would find Nicki in the front room making calls but was met with an empty living room. He went to the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water and heading to his study.
When he opened the door he stopped in his tracks. Nicki had the room set up so he would look to the left and see all the balloons and bears she had got for him. She went to the Hershey's factory and got him a big milk chocolate Hershey's bar made, it would take him a month to finish it, a week with the help of her and the kids.
Safaree walked closer to the display still not noticing Nicki on the other side of the room. He picked up a calender that had Nicki on the cover. He opened it seeing she was the photo for each month. He flipped through it stopping on May, Nicki was laying in a field of wild orchids in a summer dress with no shoes on. Her hair was straight and flowed down her back. Safaree went to July and seen she had a bikini made out of Black Cat firecrackers. She had a long fuse in one hand that connected to the bikini and a lit lighter in the other. She was giving a seductive that he had seen on numerous occasions. He closed the calender and sat it back down.
"Happy Valentines Day." Nicki said.
Safaree looked over his shoulder finally seeing Nicki, she had her legs propped up on his desk. His eyes traveled from her pink pumps to her well oiled legs, to her lace boy shorts, to her flat and toned stomach. When he got to her breast he stopped and lingered more then made his way to her lovely face.
"Happy Valentines Day to you to baby."
Nicki stood up and walked over to him planting a kiss on his lips. Taking him by the hand she walked him back to his desk chair. She hopped up on the desk and allowed him to sit in the chair.
"You do know your ass is all over my papers?" Safaree raised an eyebrow. Nicki leaned over giving him a side view of her behind while he pulled the papers from under her. "Thanks you."
"I know you have been super busy babe and I want you to relax today. I want take no for an answer, I sent the kids away for the night so we can finally have some quality time together. I planned our day down to the last minute and you can't ruin it by being stubborn. You have been working so hard the past couple months and i want to show you that I appreciate you instead of you showing me." Nicki scooted directly in front of him on the desk making him raise his eyebrow again because she had to open her legs to sit there, giving him a great view of what he hadn't had in weeks do to their schedule's. "I love you Safaree, so are you going to do what I ask?" He looked up at her face.
"It doesn't sound like I have a choice now does it?" He moved the chair closer to her making her legs go wider.
"Nope you sure don't." She kissed his lips a couple of times. Pulling away she grabbed a strawberry and placed it against his lips waiting for him to open them. He bit into the fruit and she put what was left in her mouth.
"What do you have planned for me today?" he asked. She shook her head no and slipped a grape in his allowing her finger to follow it in then removed it from his mouth. She watched his full lips as he chewed adding a pineapple soon after. Safaree took a cherry and placed it in her mouth. "So are we going to just feed each other fruit and stay half naked all day?"
"We don't have to eat fruit all day if you don't want." She put a chocolate covered strawberry in his mouth. He smirked at her not acknowledging the naked part. He looked over and noticed a tray with sauces on it, he nodded towards it.
"What's that for?" Nicki looked over and smiled. She grabbed the caramel sauce and tilted Safaree's head back.
"Don't swallow."
"Pauz." he opened his mouth. Nicki squeezed a generous amount in his mouth. She pulled his head and began tonguing him down. when she finished she had caramel on her chin and his. "My turn." Safaree said. Grabbing the chocolate sauce he returned the favor. Nicki couldn't hold it all so some spilled on to her thighs which Safaree was happy to clean up with his tongue. Then started moving his way up towards her pleasure spot.
"Whoa, you get's none of that right now." She said giggling.
"But I thought you said you wanted me to relax?" he kissed her shoulder.
"I do but that's not on the agenda right now."
"Why are you teasing me then, walking around here half naked in see through underwear?"
"You don't like?" she said leaning back resting her leg on his shoulder.
"Stop playing before you get yourself in trouble." he grabbed her leg placing it back where it was.
"You want breakfast?" he shook his head yes eating another pineapple. "Come on baby." he pushed back letting her hop down and walk in front of him.
--
"So what movie are we about to watch?"
"Well since I did that movie with Steven last year I suckered him into giving me the new Denzel action movie you wanted to see.
"Whoa, how did you pull that?"
"I have my ways. So here." she handed him the remote for the theater. "I'll be getting things ready for later while you watch the movie."
"Wait you aren't staying to watch it with me?"
"You know I don't like action movies."
"I don't like chick flicks but you make me watch them."
"Babe." she whined.
"It's Valentines day and you want me to spend it alone? Fine." he turned and faced the screen.
"Don't be like this." she nudged his leg. "Faree?" no answer. "Safaree!" She sat on his lap wrapping her arms around his neck. "I'll be back before it's over. I have to make sure everything is perfect for later on for you." she snuggled her face in his neck. "You mad?"
"Nope." he said quickly.
"Yes you are." she kicked her legs.
"I'm not babe."
"Promise?"
"Promise."
"Give me lips." she poked her lips out. Safaree pecked them and went back to looking at the screen.
"You're mad." She pushed off him only to be pulled back down.
"I'm not mad butterball." he said in her ear. Nicki smiled at the pet name she had since she was pregnant. "Go do your thing." he tapped her on her butt.
"Mkay." she ran up the stairs and out into the hallway where she stopped because she was winded. "Girl you are no spring chicken anymore." she walked to the backyard and looked at the sumo mat and outfits out side. She knew it was corny but she wanted to get back to the silly things they did before they had kids.
--
"Nicki." she heard Safaree yell out 20 minutes later. She quickly walked back to the living room trying to keep him away from the backyard.
"What are you doing up here sexy?"
"I couldn't enjoy the movie without you under me." he sat on the couch and she sat next to him.
"I remember when you couldn't stand it."
"That was years ago. I'm set in my ways now." he put his arm around her shoulders, she intertwined their fingers.
"Your talking like you are old."
"I am old."
"No you can't get old because that means that I have to get old and I don't age."
"Just because this body of yours is still perfection doesn't mean you don't age baby cakes."
"Lies." she screamed then broke out into laughter. "Well what do you want to do old man?"
"You are the one with the plan." he kissed her forehead.
"Well since you don't want to watch your movie we are ans hour and a half ahead of schedule."
"I know what we can do to pass time." he dropped his voice lower. Nicki looked up at him.
"Oh really now? And what is that?" She raised her eyebrow.
"Let's go upstairs and I'll show you." he kissed her hand and looked into her eyes.
"Nope, can't do it." she giggled. "You want your gifts now?"
"You got me a gift?"
"Of course." She went into the kitchen and came out with a couple of big boxes and a small one.
"I didn't need anything babe, you didn't have too." Safaree said.
"Hush and open them." he sat up and opened the big boxes first and discovered three new fitted hats. One was signed by the Miami Heat basketball team.
"Thanks babe." he said smiling. "I got to put this up for safe keeping." he moved on to the small box, he opened it revealing a watch with black diamonds all around it. "Whoaaaaaaaa." He slipped it on and looked at it from all angles. Nicki sat there taking in his reaction, making him happy always made her happy.
"So you like?" she asked.
"Damn right I like." he picked her up off the couch holding her close.
"Safaree put me down you know I don't like heights!"
"Thank you Nic."
"It's never a problem baby." he placed her feet back on the ground.
"So can we go do whatever you have in the backyard?"
"How do you know it's something back there?" she side eyed him.
"Well I kinda on accident saw." he gave her puppy dog eyes.
"Don't give me those eyes. It doesn't work with Aaron anymore and it damn sure doesn't work with your big goofy ass." She folded her arms.
"Calm down." he pecked her lips repeatedly until she smiled. "There's my smile. Now lets go have fun." he took her hand walking to the back. "What is it?" he asked.
"Sumo wrestling." she said squinting because of the sun.
"Really Nicki?"
"Hey don't make fun. I thought you would like it."
"I'm sure I will, it was just a shocker."
"Let's put on the outfits and play and I'll explain the rules." Nicki sat down to slide her legs into the suit and stood up, Safaree mimicked what she did and put his on. "Babe zip me." Safaree struggled because of the suit but he eventually got it. "Thanks. Okay rules are you have to knock the other one out of the circle to get points. okay?"
"Nicki I don't know how I feel about running at you."
"Your not going to hurt me with all this padding on babe, besides you're already in the outfit."
"Okay but not one tear better fall from your eyes." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. Go to your side of the mat and be prepared to get tackled boy." she playfully pushed him.
"Alright smart ass." he went.
"Now when I count to three we go okay?"
"Okay."
"1....2..........3." Nicki took off charging at Safaree and Safaree at her, the next thing Nicki knew her butt was meeting the ground. "Whoa." she looked around and realized she was still in the circle. "Ha you don't get a point." she rolled over on her stomach and began pushing herself to her feet. Safaree took his foot and knocked her back down. Her body now laying over the line.
"Now I do." he said with a smug look on his face.
"Oh my God Safaree you are such a cheater."
"I've never cheated on you a day in my life and I'm offended you said it." he said.
"Oh shut up you know what I mean." he smiled.
"Oh I see what you meant, my bad."
"Whatever loser. Get ready to go again." she got back to her side.
They continued to play the game for hours because Nicki refused to give up. She hadn't won any rounds and it was pissing her off. Safaree thought it was rather amusing. The determination on her face was adorable to him. Her hair once perfectly curled hair had now fallen and was sticking to her head.
"Again SB."
"No Nicki I'm tired." he laid on the mat still in his sumo suit.
"But I haven't won a game yet." she pouted.
"And you won't ever." Nicki plopped down next to him.
"I'm sad." she fake pouted.
"You'll be alright."
"You don't even care you jerk." she kicked him smirking.
"Because you aren't really sad."
"I could have been."
"Why are you trying to start big drama on my day?" he asked.
"I'm sorry." she didn't want to stress him out.
"I was just kidding, your fine. Come lay with me." Nicki got as close as possible. "Dang babe you getting kinda big lay off the cupcakes."
"You know how I like my cakes." they broke out into laughter. "Have you liked your day so far?" Nicki looked over at him.
"Yeah. I'm glad you didn't go all out."
"I knew you didn't want to go anywhere. Your a homebody like me now."
"All I need are my kids and you and y'all are here so I'm here." Nicki leaned over and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"At times you can say the cutest things."
"Yeah a coon is getting soft."
"Shut up. Come on let's go shower and get ready for dinner."
"Okay help me up." he lifted his arm for her to take.
"Fuck I look like son?" Nicki said in her NY voice pushing herself up but Safaree tipped her over and watched her tumble.
"Babyyyy." Nicki whined. Safaree got up and began walking, he should have walked further away because Nicki stuck her foot in between his as he was walking and down went Safaree.
"Oh shit." he said as he hit the ground. Nicki was so tickled by it. He just laid there.
"Get up punk and help me." Nicki yelled.
"No you help me."
"NO!" she shouted "You knocked me down first so you gotta help me up."
"We just gone be some laying here mofos because I'm not moving."
"Ugh you're such a jerk, do you know that?"
"Yeah but you love this jerk."
"I do." she said smiling.
"Do you remember when you said those words to me. Sweetest words that I have ever heard."
"Awww you're such a little corn ball, I love it. Give me kisses." she made kiss faces at him while trying to roll over to him.
"No." Safaree got a burst of strength and somehow made it to his feet, running the best he could away. Nicki laughed at him waddling more than running away.
"That's why you not gettin none tonight." she yelled getting up on her own.
"I was just playing, why you got to withhold the goods?" he asked as she walked passed him into the house.
--
Safaree come down the stairs in one of his best Armani suits. He didn't want to get dressed up at all but Nicki insisted. He thought it was the least he could do after all she had done for him. He walked into the kitchen to find the table set up for two with candle's lit, it had Nicki written all over it. There was a red table cloth and two silver lids covering their food. He wanted Her to hurry up because he was hungry.
"Babe come on." he shouted towards the stairs.
"I'm coming Safaree, give me a minute." she yelled back.
Nicki continued looking herself over in her full length mirror. She moved her dress around to show her breast just right. At 38 years old she was blessed that they still sat up perky. The pink dress that she wore had a deep plunge in the front stopping a couple inches above her bellybutton. She reapplied her lipstick then headed downstairs.
Safaree stood at the bottom of the staircase fixing his diamond cuff links Nicki got him for their very first valentines day as man and wife six years ago. He looked up to find his beautiful wife descending the stairs.
"Don't you look gorgeous." said as a statement more than a question.
"Thank you." she smiled and took his hand as they made their way into the kitchen. "You look handsome." She stopped and fixed his tie for him.
Safaree pulled her body to his and whispered in her ear.
"How bout we skip dinner and I take you back upstairs?" he kissed her neck. Nicki blushed and gently pushed away from him.
"Down boy." She walked over to the bucket holding the champagne and pulled it out. Safaree walked up behind her getting closer than needed and took it from her hand.
"I got that." he poured their glasses. "Here is a toast to us. To six wonderful years of marriage to an amazing woman. Thanks for loving me how no other woman did or could. You are one of a kind, a rare find." he nodded towards her.
"Here's a toast to a wonderful man, husband, and father. You go above and beyond what is asked of you. You treat me like a queen even when I'm being the most difficult person. You support my decisions in everything I do. I will be here for you till the ends of our days. I love You Safaree."
"I love you to Onika." they raised their glasses and sipped. "You ready to eat."
"Yes." Safaree pulled out her chair for her then sat down himself.
"What did you get us?"
"I got you steak with grilled shrimp. Mashed potatoes."
"Are they loaded?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Do you not remember the doctors appointment you had last week. Your cholesterol is horrible, you lucky I ordered you potatoes period. Be thankful. And you have green beans."
"What you get?" Nicki uncovered her shrimp salad. "You would be all healthy."
"Hey this body does look like this for nothing." she grabbed his hand. "Say grace." they bowed their hands and Safaree blessed the food then began eating.
"You could have at least put bacon and sour cream in the potatoes."
"You mad?" he just stuck a fork full of them in his mouth. "Hows the store doing?"
"It's doing fine. I have to make a piece for Em. I have to start on it in the next couple of days."
"You know your daughter wants a diamond ring."
"She's five."
"Kayla does not care. She is a daddy's girl and she knows you can get one."
"When did she decide this?"
"When we were looking through a magazine one day she came across a picture of Beyonces ring."
"Oh she wants one that big?" he asked cutting another piece of his steak.
"Yeah, whoever marries her is going to have a hell of a time, she is so spoiled."
"It's your fault."
"Don't even, you are the one who bought her the $3000 dollar dress for Easter last year then threw it away because she got a grass stain on it."
"And I'll do it again, my baby deserves the best."
"See. Don't say anything when she turns 16 and wants the most expensive car in the world." Nicki rolled her eyes. "I'm full."
"You took like three bites."
"I ate more than that. I see you are almost done."
"This was good. Thanks again baby."
"Never a problem. You want dessert, I got you that ice cream cake that you like from Carrie's Place." she got up to take their plates and put them in the sink.
"Naw, I'm good for right now. What else do you have planned.?"
"Nothing. My plans ended with dinner. Is there something you want to do?"
"I had a thing or two in mind." Nicki smiled while washing the dishes.
"Oh yeah what is that?"
"It's this girl I planned on seeing later."
"Oh really? What does she look like?"
"Body of a goddess. Her face looks like God set time aside to make sure it was free of imperfections. I fall in love with her every time I stare into her big brown eyes." Nicki turned off the water and dried her hands. Safaree was leaning against the counter biting at a hang nail. Nicki walked up to him.
"Is there anyway I could change your mind about this girl?" she slipped her arms around his waist.
"I don't think so. She's a keeper but you could try." Nicki kissed his lips then slipped her tongue passed them. Safaree held her waist.
"Am I making progress?" She asked in between kisses.
"Keep trying." he responded.
"Let's take this upstairs." Nicki walked towards the stairs pulling him along. When they made it upstairs they were about to pass the guest bedroom when Safaree stopped. "What's wrong."
"Nothing Let's just go in here."
"Why not our bedroom?"
"Let's just go in here."
"I don't care where we go, just hurry up." She opened the door then halted. She looked around the room and seen over a dozen boxes sitting on the bed. They varied in sizes but were all wrapped in some shade of pink.
"Happy Valentines Day Baby."
"Safaree when did you get all of this?"
"It wasn't easy. You haven't left the house that much this week but I got it done. Are you going to open them."
Nicki turned around and hugged him. "Not right now. I want to show you my thanks first."
"Really?" She nodded her head and pulled him down the hall to the master bed room.
"Who do you want me to be tonight?" she asked. They roll played a lot and she knew it excited him.
"Tonight I just want Onika and all her realness."
"I think I can handle that."
They disrobed and made love well into the early morning.
*I hope you liked it. I more than likely will not be posting this weekend. I hope this will hold you over until I can resume the actual story. So comment, tell me what you think. Oh and I want to say Happy Birthday to @xoromansLOVER. Go wish her a happy birthday you guys. Love you my darlings. Smooches.*
Nicki was downstairs on the phone with Martin and Lauren making the final arrangements for her perfect Valentines day with Safaree. Safaree had been so busy with the kids and their activities while she finished up her fourth album that she knew he didn't have time to plan anything for her. She loved her husband so much for all that he did so she wanted to make him feel special today.
"Martin are the red roses on their way here?" Nicki asked biting the corner of her bottom lip.
"Yes they are on their way Nicki they should be arriving at any moment. The edible arrangements arrived already right?"
"Yes it's here in the fridge."
"Lauren you called and made the order at Kenny's right?"
"Yes the food should arrive around seven if not eight. The chef said they are expecting a big rush tonight and not to be mad at him." Nicki smiled.
"I could never be mad at him. I love that little old man" she smiled.
"Well Nicki everything else you handled so everything is in place for your day with hubby." Lauren said closing her notepad.
"Okay well I will talk to you guys tomorrow. Remember if its not life altering or about the kids don't call this house."
"Nobody is going to interrupt your freak session." Lauren said rolling her eyes as if Nicki could see her.
"That's my cue, talk to you later boss." Martin hung up the phone before she could give a response.
"You would think after all these years he would get comfortable with our conversations." Nicki said giggling. "Well boo don't let the kids run over you, if they give you problems you know what to do."
"Yes ma'am. Bye hun."
"Bye."
Nicki hung up the phone and looked over at the clock, it read seven-forty-five. She hopped up and went into Safaree's study to finish setting up everything, all that was needed was the flowers she had ordered him. She heard a van door shut and raced to the front door as quickly as possible before the delivery guy had a chance to ring the doorbell and possibly wake Safaree. She peeped through the side window and made sure it was the flowers then opened the door startling the Latin man.
"Hello." he greeted her.
"Good morning." Nicki smiled at the old man.
"I need your signature right here." he handed her the clip board. Nicki briefly went over what it said, her mama taught her never to sign anything without first reading it. She glanced up then smirked at the man, he was checking out her body. She couldn't blame him tho, she was only in her robe which stopped high up her thigh and she was wearing pumps.
"Here you go sir." she said bring the man out of his thoughts. She let the other two men that were with him walk passed her into the house. "Turn left and it is the first room on the right."
"Your husband is one lucky man." Nicki turned back and looked at him.
"Yes, he is." the two men exited her home. "Have a great day."
"You do the same." she closed the door as he turned to leave.
She walked in and arranged the flowers like she wanted them to be. Today had to be perfect for Safaree. She looked at the clock and knew that he was about to get up and do his morning routine. Relieve himself, shower, and then enter his study to work on things for his jewelry business. He loved that store and was on the verge of opening another in New York. Him taking online classes and getting his degree in Business and talking classes on gems really paid off.
Nicki heard the faint sound of water running so she hurried to the kitchen and grabbed the fruit arrangement out of the fridge and brought it back to the study. She plucked a pineapple off of it and popped it in her mouth. She sat in his leather chair behind his desk and waited for him to come down.
Safaree put on some sweat pants after applying lotion to his body, leaving his upper half bare. He walked downstairs thinking he would find Nicki in the front room making calls but was met with an empty living room. He went to the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water and heading to his study.
When he opened the door he stopped in his tracks. Nicki had the room set up so he would look to the left and see all the balloons and bears she had got for him. She went to the Hershey's factory and got him a big milk chocolate Hershey's bar made, it would take him a month to finish it, a week with the help of her and the kids.
Safaree walked closer to the display still not noticing Nicki on the other side of the room. He picked up a calender that had Nicki on the cover. He opened it seeing she was the photo for each month. He flipped through it stopping on May, Nicki was laying in a field of wild orchids in a summer dress with no shoes on. Her hair was straight and flowed down her back. Safaree went to July and seen she had a bikini made out of Black Cat firecrackers. She had a long fuse in one hand that connected to the bikini and a lit lighter in the other. She was giving a seductive that he had seen on numerous occasions. He closed the calender and sat it back down.
"Happy Valentines Day." Nicki said.

"I know what we can do to pass time." he dropped his voice lower. Nicki looked up at him.
"Oh really now? And what is that?" She raised her eyebrow.
"Let's go upstairs and I'll show you." he kissed her hand and looked into her eyes.
"Nope, can't do it." she giggled. "You want your gifts now?"
"You got me a gift?"
"Of course." She went into the kitchen and came out with a couple of big boxes and a small one.
"I didn't need anything babe, you didn't have too." Safaree said.
"Hush and open them." he sat up and opened the big boxes first and discovered three new fitted hats. One was signed by the Miami Heat basketball team.
"Thanks babe." he said smiling. "I got to put this up for safe keeping." he moved on to the small box, he opened it revealing a watch with black diamonds all around it. "Whoaaaaaaaa." He slipped it on and looked at it from all angles. Nicki sat there taking in his reaction, making him happy always made her happy.
"So you like?" she asked.
"Damn right I like." he picked her up off the couch holding her close.
"Safaree put me down you know I don't like heights!"
"Thank you Nic."
"It's never a problem baby." he placed her feet back on the ground.
"So can we go do whatever you have in the backyard?"
"How do you know it's something back there?" she side eyed him.
"Well I kinda on accident saw." he gave her puppy dog eyes.
"Don't give me those eyes. It doesn't work with Aaron anymore and it damn sure doesn't work with your big goofy ass." She folded her arms.
"Calm down." he pecked her lips repeatedly until she smiled. "There's my smile. Now lets go have fun." he took her hand walking to the back. "What is it?" he asked.
"Sumo wrestling." she said squinting because of the sun.
"Really Nicki?"
"Hey don't make fun. I thought you would like it."
"I'm sure I will, it was just a shocker."
"Let's put on the outfits and play and I'll explain the rules." Nicki sat down to slide her legs into the suit and stood up, Safaree mimicked what she did and put his on. "Babe zip me." Safaree struggled because of the suit but he eventually got it. "Thanks. Okay rules are you have to knock the other one out of the circle to get points. okay?"
"Nicki I don't know how I feel about running at you."
"Your not going to hurt me with all this padding on babe, besides you're already in the outfit."
"Okay but not one tear better fall from your eyes." Nicki rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. Go to your side of the mat and be prepared to get tackled boy." she playfully pushed him.
"Alright smart ass." he went.
"Now when I count to three we go okay?"
"Okay."
"1....2..........3." Nicki took off charging at Safaree and Safaree at her, the next thing Nicki knew her butt was meeting the ground. "Whoa." she looked around and realized she was still in the circle. "Ha you don't get a point." she rolled over on her stomach and began pushing herself to her feet. Safaree took his foot and knocked her back down. Her body now laying over the line.
"Now I do." he said with a smug look on his face.
"Oh my God Safaree you are such a cheater."
"I've never cheated on you a day in my life and I'm offended you said it." he said.
"Oh shut up you know what I mean." he smiled.
"Oh I see what you meant, my bad."
"Whatever loser. Get ready to go again." she got back to her side.
They continued to play the game for hours because Nicki refused to give up. She hadn't won any rounds and it was pissing her off. Safaree thought it was rather amusing. The determination on her face was adorable to him. Her hair once perfectly curled hair had now fallen and was sticking to her head.
"Again SB."
"No Nicki I'm tired." he laid on the mat still in his sumo suit.
"But I haven't won a game yet." she pouted.
"And you won't ever." Nicki plopped down next to him.
"I'm sad." she fake pouted.
"You'll be alright."
"You don't even care you jerk." she kicked him smirking.
"Because you aren't really sad."
"I could have been."
"Why are you trying to start big drama on my day?" he asked.
"I'm sorry." she didn't want to stress him out.
"I was just kidding, your fine. Come lay with me." Nicki got as close as possible. "Dang babe you getting kinda big lay off the cupcakes."
"You know how I like my cakes." they broke out into laughter. "Have you liked your day so far?" Nicki looked over at him.
"Yeah. I'm glad you didn't go all out."
"I knew you didn't want to go anywhere. Your a homebody like me now."
"All I need are my kids and you and y'all are here so I'm here." Nicki leaned over and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"At times you can say the cutest things."
"Yeah a coon is getting soft."
"Shut up. Come on let's go shower and get ready for dinner."
"Okay help me up." he lifted his arm for her to take.
"Fuck I look like son?" Nicki said in her NY voice pushing herself up but Safaree tipped her over and watched her tumble.
"Babyyyy." Nicki whined. Safaree got up and began walking, he should have walked further away because Nicki stuck her foot in between his as he was walking and down went Safaree.
"Oh shit." he said as he hit the ground. Nicki was so tickled by it. He just laid there.
"Get up punk and help me." Nicki yelled.
"No you help me."
"NO!" she shouted "You knocked me down first so you gotta help me up."
"We just gone be some laying here mofos because I'm not moving."
"Ugh you're such a jerk, do you know that?"
"Yeah but you love this jerk."
"I do." she said smiling.
"Do you remember when you said those words to me. Sweetest words that I have ever heard."
"Awww you're such a little corn ball, I love it. Give me kisses." she made kiss faces at him while trying to roll over to him.
"No." Safaree got a burst of strength and somehow made it to his feet, running the best he could away. Nicki laughed at him waddling more than running away.
"That's why you not gettin none tonight." she yelled getting up on her own.
"I was just playing, why you got to withhold the goods?" he asked as she walked passed him into the house.
--
Safaree come down the stairs in one of his best Armani suits. He didn't want to get dressed up at all but Nicki insisted. He thought it was the least he could do after all she had done for him. He walked into the kitchen to find the table set up for two with candle's lit, it had Nicki written all over it. There was a red table cloth and two silver lids covering their food. He wanted Her to hurry up because he was hungry.
"Babe come on." he shouted towards the stairs.
"I'm coming Safaree, give me a minute." she yelled back.
Nicki continued looking herself over in her full length mirror. She moved her dress around to show her breast just right. At 38 years old she was blessed that they still sat up perky. The pink dress that she wore had a deep plunge in the front stopping a couple inches above her bellybutton. She reapplied her lipstick then headed downstairs.
Safaree stood at the bottom of the staircase fixing his diamond cuff links Nicki got him for their very first valentines day as man and wife six years ago. He looked up to find his beautiful wife descending the stairs.
"Don't you look gorgeous." said as a statement more than a question.
"Thank you." she smiled and took his hand as they made their way into the kitchen. "You look handsome." She stopped and fixed his tie for him.
Safaree pulled her body to his and whispered in her ear.
"How bout we skip dinner and I take you back upstairs?" he kissed her neck. Nicki blushed and gently pushed away from him.
"Down boy." She walked over to the bucket holding the champagne and pulled it out. Safaree walked up behind her getting closer than needed and took it from her hand.
"I got that." he poured their glasses. "Here is a toast to us. To six wonderful years of marriage to an amazing woman. Thanks for loving me how no other woman did or could. You are one of a kind, a rare find." he nodded towards her.
"Here's a toast to a wonderful man, husband, and father. You go above and beyond what is asked of you. You treat me like a queen even when I'm being the most difficult person. You support my decisions in everything I do. I will be here for you till the ends of our days. I love You Safaree."
"I love you to Onika." they raised their glasses and sipped. "You ready to eat."
"Yes." Safaree pulled out her chair for her then sat down himself.
"What did you get us?"
"I got you steak with grilled shrimp. Mashed potatoes."
"Are they loaded?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Do you not remember the doctors appointment you had last week. Your cholesterol is horrible, you lucky I ordered you potatoes period. Be thankful. And you have green beans."
"What you get?" Nicki uncovered her shrimp salad. "You would be all healthy."
"Hey this body does look like this for nothing." she grabbed his hand. "Say grace." they bowed their hands and Safaree blessed the food then began eating.
"You could have at least put bacon and sour cream in the potatoes."
"You mad?" he just stuck a fork full of them in his mouth. "Hows the store doing?"
"It's doing fine. I have to make a piece for Em. I have to start on it in the next couple of days."
"You know your daughter wants a diamond ring."
"She's five."
"Kayla does not care. She is a daddy's girl and she knows you can get one."
"When did she decide this?"
"When we were looking through a magazine one day she came across a picture of Beyonces ring."
"Oh she wants one that big?" he asked cutting another piece of his steak.
"Yeah, whoever marries her is going to have a hell of a time, she is so spoiled."
"It's your fault."
"Don't even, you are the one who bought her the $3000 dollar dress for Easter last year then threw it away because she got a grass stain on it."
"And I'll do it again, my baby deserves the best."
"See. Don't say anything when she turns 16 and wants the most expensive car in the world." Nicki rolled her eyes. "I'm full."
"You took like three bites."
"I ate more than that. I see you are almost done."
"This was good. Thanks again baby."
"Never a problem. You want dessert, I got you that ice cream cake that you like from Carrie's Place." she got up to take their plates and put them in the sink.
"Naw, I'm good for right now. What else do you have planned.?"
"Nothing. My plans ended with dinner. Is there something you want to do?"
"I had a thing or two in mind." Nicki smiled while washing the dishes.
"Oh yeah what is that?"
"It's this girl I planned on seeing later."
"Oh really? What does she look like?"
"Body of a goddess. Her face looks like God set time aside to make sure it was free of imperfections. I fall in love with her every time I stare into her big brown eyes." Nicki turned off the water and dried her hands. Safaree was leaning against the counter biting at a hang nail. Nicki walked up to him.
"Is there anyway I could change your mind about this girl?" she slipped her arms around his waist.
"I don't think so. She's a keeper but you could try." Nicki kissed his lips then slipped her tongue passed them. Safaree held her waist.
"Am I making progress?" She asked in between kisses.
"Keep trying." he responded.
"Let's take this upstairs." Nicki walked towards the stairs pulling him along. When they made it upstairs they were about to pass the guest bedroom when Safaree stopped. "What's wrong."
"Nothing Let's just go in here."
"Why not our bedroom?"
"Let's just go in here."
"I don't care where we go, just hurry up." She opened the door then halted. She looked around the room and seen over a dozen boxes sitting on the bed. They varied in sizes but were all wrapped in some shade of pink.
"Happy Valentines Day Baby."
"Safaree when did you get all of this?"
"It wasn't easy. You haven't left the house that much this week but I got it done. Are you going to open them."
Nicki turned around and hugged him. "Not right now. I want to show you my thanks first."
"Really?" She nodded her head and pulled him down the hall to the master bed room.
"Who do you want me to be tonight?" she asked. They roll played a lot and she knew it excited him.
"Tonight I just want Onika and all her realness."
"I think I can handle that."
They disrobed and made love well into the early morning.

Scrambled Brain...
*I realized I used the name Karen for a different character so the woman that was in the background when Nicki called daomn name is now Lesley. Enjoy my beautiful darlings*
Nicki and the girls went to the ice cream shop a couple minutes away from her house. She was having mommy daughter time. She wanted to spend as much time with them as she could. Next month she started her training for her new movie and knew she would hardly see them like she could now. This would be the first time she would have to separate from them for a project longer than a week or two.
"Are you enjoying your ice cream?"
"Yes." they said together.
"Mommy do you like beans?" Zaria asked looking up from her bowl.
"Yes, mommy likes beans." Nicki looked at her for a second thinking there was a follow up question but Zaria just went back to eating. Nicki laughed. She would miss these moments with them and their innocence.
"So you two mommy needs to tell you something." They looked up at her with their big doe eyes. "You know mommy has a movie she has to make right." they shook their heads. "Well mommy has to go away for awhile to get ready for it."
"Are you going to bring us back something?" Daria questioned.
"Doesn't mommy always bring her princesses something back?"
"Yes." Daria said smiling.
"Well this time when mommy goes away she has to go away for a month."
"How long is that?" Daria asked.
"Well that's about four Sundays." Nicki said biting her lip trying to read their young faces but they still looked confused. "So when four Sundays pass mommy will be back at home."
"Okay." Zaria said getting back to her ice cream.
"That's it?" Nicki asked. She realized that she was talking to three year olds. "That went better than i thought." she said to herself. Nicki put a spoonful of her Butter pecan ice cream in her mouth then turned around to see a camera pointed at her on the other side of the glass. Nicki rolled her eyes. "Alright you two we have to go."
"But mommy." they whined.
"I'll get us some to take home but we have to go. Put your jackets on." they did as they were told.
Nicki slipped on her jacket and gathered the girls and went to the counter.
"May I have a pint of Birthday Cake, Chocolate, and Butter Pecan to go please?"
"Sure. That will be $23.18." Nicki gave her thirty and told her to keep the change. A gentleman handed her the bag with the ice cream in it.
"Come on girls." Nicki put one on each hip and walked out the door. She was approached by five paps as she made her way to her car.
"No pictures." Zaria said covering her face. Nicki reached her car.
"Hey back up and let me put my kids in the car." Nicki yelled. They complied and moved back enough for her to put them in the car. "Daria go get in your seat and I'll come strap you in." She strapped Zaria in then went around and did the same for Daria eventually getting in the car herself.
@NICKIMINAJ
I can't even go out for ice cream anymore. Geesh. Barbz I don't like paparazzi. >:( Enjoy the photos! -__-
She pulled off and headed home.
--
It had been a week or so since Safaree and Nicki had made there agreement, so far they hadn't done anything with each other. They went on with their lives as usual. Nicki needed advice so she decided to call up her girls and go for a drive. She called her house phone.
"Hello."
"Hey."
"Hey baby. What are you and the girls up to?" Damon asked.
"On our way home. Can you watch the kids for a little while longer while I go do a couple things?"
"Sure it's no problem."
"Is Ethan giving you a hard time?"
"When doesn't he? He's fine though, nothing I can't handle."
"What did he do? Put his behind on the phone."
"No Nicki he is fine. Just call me when you pull up so I can come get the girls out of the car."
"Okay I'll be there in like two seconds so come out now."
"Okay." he hung up the phone.
Nicki pulled up into the driveway and parked the car. Damon came out in nothing but his sweat pants and shoes, it was chilly outside so his nipples were hard. Nicki rolled down the window.
"Your going to be sick fool put on some clothes." she yelled.
"You know you love my body stop playing girl." He opened the door and the girls hopped out the car.
"Mmhhhm. Grab that bag and put it in the freezer please."
"Alright, be safe." he leaned in for a kiss but Nicki turned her head.
"I don't know where your lips have been." she tried to play it off by giving a small smile.
"You cold, you know that right?"
"Yeah I know. See you when I get back." she rolled back up the window and backed out to leave.
--
Nicki let herself into Laurens house and ran up the stairs to her room. She flopped down on the bed and waited for Lauren to get out of the shower. She stared at the ceiling fan going round and round and thought that is exactly how her life was going. Spinning out of control and she felt as if she had no control over it. Nicki was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard Lauren let out a scream. Nicki jumped up and screamed too."
"What's wrong?" Nicki asked.
"Your ass is what's wrong. When the hell did you get here?"
"Oh, you had me thinking something happened to your black ass. I got here like five minutes ago. I need to go for a drive."
"Must be some heavy stuff you need to get off your chest. Candi coming?"
"Yeah once we go get her."
"Alright well let me get on some clothes. Can we get something to eat while we are out?"
"I don't want anyone to see me."
"We can get fast food. I'm starving here kid."
"Fine if we must."
It was another thirty minutes until they left to go get Candi. Once they had her they stopped and got Burger King then were off down the highway, going nowhere in particular. Lauren and Candi knew how this went. Nicki wasn't going to tell them right away, she needed to figure out how to say it and it was never a quick thought process. They finished their food and just grooved to the Mary J. Blige What's the 411? album until she was ready.
"I keep fucking up." Nicki said shifting in the drivers seat.
"What do you mean?" Candi asked.
"In my relationship. I just keep fucking up." Lauren and Candi made eye contact.
"Does this involve Safaree again?" Lauren eyed her through the rear view mirror. They hit traffic and were at a standstill so Nicki through the car in park.
"Yes." she rested her head on the steering wheel.
"You did it again didn't you?" Candi asked with a smile on her face.
"Why do you have excitement in your voice when clearly I'm not okay about it." Nicki asked with an attitude.
"Calm down. So were you drunk this time as well?"
"That's the bad part about it, I was fully sober and aware."
"Damn Nic." Lauren said.
"I know right."
Traffic moved a little so she moved the car up and put it back in park.
"That can't be all to the story, we only go on drives when multiple things go wrong." Candi said.
"I volunteered to have an affair with him." she looked straight forward trying not make eye contact with anybody.
"YOU DID WHAT?" Lauren shouted.
"Yeah, you heard correctly." Nicki shook her head.
"So you are sleeping with him on the regular now?" Lauren asked.
"No. We haven't done anything since I proposed it to him."
"Nicki do you love Damon because your actions are speaking as if you don't."
"He's the reason I proposed it."
"Because he is always gone does not mean you get to cheat."
"No him having random women in his room means I can do what I want." Nicki shouted.
"When did you find this out?"
"I call him to check on him after the fitting and I hear some woman ask him what he is doing. Sounding all flirty and shit. Fuck him."
"Then why not leave?"
"I have invested in him emotionally and physically. I really did, do love him. I'm just so confused."
"But you still feel something for Safaree as well." Lauren added.
"It's like Safaree knows what I'm thinking before I do at times. He gets me."
"Then why not be with him if you feel Damon is cheating." Traffic began to flow again.
"Candi switch seats with me so I can talk." Candi climbed over Nicki and got in the drivers seat and pulled off.
"Safaree hurt me when he left." she looked at her nails. "Like it really fucked me up inside. I wasn't ready to give him up but there was nothing I could do about it. He moved on so I had to as well. I caught feelings for Damon and eventually love grew. Damon is not giving me the attention I need as a woman and I know Safaree will give me that. I don't want to leave Damon because at least I know what I get with him. With Safaree I never know."
"Nicki you are playing with fire here sis." Candi said. "It seems like you are not backing out of this little affair with SB but have you thought about what would happen if Damon finds out?"
"Did you ask him who the chick was in the background?"
"No. He still doesn't know I know. Me and his friend Phil are really good friends, I'm going to call him sometime this week and see if he knows anything about this Lesley chick."
"Why would he tell you anything if he is Damons homeboy?" Lauren asked.
"Phil is the type of person who if you're wrong he will tell you you are wrong. He has treated me like a sister since we first met three years ago." Lauren stared out the window.
"That's the girls name, Lesley?" Candi asked for clarification. Nicki looked from Lauren to Candi.
"Yeah. So what do you think Lauren?"
"Sis this is a whole big ol mess. You don't know If he is cheating so I don't think you should sleep with Safaree anymore."
"Lauren something in me is telling me he is doing something wrong. I just want to find out. And I thought about just leaving but I gave my word to him that I would marry him. I also have the kids to worry about, I can't pull someone from their lives that quickly. They are in a stable environment and I can't afford for my problems to effect them. With Daria possibly having Dyslexia I don't know if me doing something like that could set her back in any way and I'm not willing to to take that risk." the car got quiet as the three took in what Nicki just said.
"Nicki I just hope this doesn't come back and bite you in the ass. I understand you want the attention a man is supposed to give his future wife. I know you have spoken to him time and time again about it and he is not getting it, so if this is what you need to do then I get it. Just make sure you figure this out by your wedding date." Lauren sat back after she said her peace. Nicki looked over to Candi.
"What do you have to say?"
"It's your life boo. Just make sure you keep me up to date on all the freak nasty nasty that is about to take place." they all broke out into laughter.
"You are a damn freak I tell you. Freak nasty nasty, how old are we?" Nicki loved her friends for never judging her. "Where the hell are we?"
"We are entering San Diego in twenty minutes."
"Have we really been driving that long?"
"You drove for an hour and a half in silence, in a trance, we were stuck in traffic for a long minute, so yeah we are right on track. WE need to stop and get gas before we have to put you on the side of the rode to flag down a car."
"Why I gotta be the one to flag down a car?"
"You know all you gotta do is "take ya shirt off and watch the boys go nuts."" Candi said mimicking one of Nickis earlier songs.
"You are so corny." Nicki laughed. This is what she needed time to just clear her head and lay things out on the table. She had some things figured out, the grey area in her life was dwindling.
--
"Mr. Damon can you hewp me pwease?" Zaria was trying to get an orange out of the bowl in the center of the table.
"You want me to make you a snack?" he asked picking her up. She nodded her head. "You two want a snack too?" he yelled out.
"Yea pwease." Daria said walking into the kitchen. Ethan remained in the living room.
"Alright I'll make you guys a fruit tray." Damon went and pulled out Kiwi, bananas, and cuties from the fridge. "You know how to peel a orange?" he asked them. He picked them up and sat them on the counter.
"No." they said.
"What, you've never peeled an orange?" They giggled at the shocked expression on his face. "We can't have this, here." He handed them both a cutie. "Watch me." Ethan peeped his head around the corner, Damon pretended not to see him. "So you stick your finger into the orange like this, not to far you don't want the juice to squirt you in your eye. You'll go blind." Daria looked up from her orange.
"Really?"
"No, I'm just kidding sweetheart." he smiled and she went back to picking at her orange.
"Whoa." Zaria shouted because her orange slipped from her hand but she caught it in between her knees.
"Be careful." Damon picked up a banana and peeled it cutting it into slices and plated it. He began peeling the kiwi when he felt a tug on his pants leg, he looked down to see Ethan.
"Can I um...can you teach me pwease?" he looked up with his big eyes. Damon smiled.
"Sure let me get another orange. You want to get on the counter?"
"Yes." Damon went into the fridge, grabbing a orange then put Ethan next to his sisters.
"Okay you have to pick at the orange part." Ethan had seen him do it earlier so he repeated the action. "There you go."
"I'm finished." He looked at Zarias orange and it looked like she had tried to dig in it.
"Good job." At least she got the peel off, he thought. He took it from her and took Darias when she was done. "Okay go sit at the table." he placed them on the ground.
"Here." Ethan handed him his orange and jumped down following his sisters.
Damon put the fruit on a plate in the shape of two palm trees and sat it on the table for them to eat.
"Thank you." they said in unison.
Later in the day he pulled out some games for them to play together. He had been calling Nicki but couldn't through to her, he was getting worried.
"Is mommy coming home?" Zaria asked Damon, picking up the red person out of the Candy Land box.
"Yeah she will be here, let's start the game." He sat on the floor next to Daria. "Whoever wins gets ice cream."
"Yay." Zaria shouted.
Blocks Over
"No I gotta go." Nicki said trying to stop Safaree from unbuttoning her blouse for the third time. He currently had he trapped between him and the wall.
"Come on you have time." he kissed her once more.
"I really have to go, I left him there with three kids."
"You leave me all the time with them."
"It's different they are you offspring."
"Just a quickie Nicki." She kissed him on the lips.
"No Safaree. I call you later and let the kids tell you goodnight." she slipped under his arm and made her way quickly downstairs to the front door.
"Hey!" she looked up at the banister.
"What?"
"Be safe." he said.
"I'm just going around the corner. Talk to you later." She smiled and left out.
Nicki looked down at her phone and seen she had 10 missed calls from Damon.
When she dropped off Lauren and Candi she was headed home, well that's what she thought but she found herself sitting in Safarees driveway. Safaree came out and got her after awhile. When they got in the house they sat on the couch not really saying anything. Nicki felt like a freshman school girl sitting with her senior crush, she didn't know what to do or say.
"You okay?" Safaree asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, why?"
"You're just so quiet, I'm used to you being loud."
"Shut up I'm never loud." she punched him in the arm.
"Hey I told you about putting your hands on me. I'ma toss your little ass next time."
"Whatever, turn on the TV or something. Entertain me." Safaree grabbed the remote and through it to her.
"I gotta pee." he rushed off.
She found a movie then her stomach growled so she made her way to his kitchen. Nicki helped herself to a sandwich and chips. Safaree came in the kitchen to get a water and seen Nicki sitting on his counter eating.
"So not only do you raid my refrigerator but you sit your ass on my counter?" he asked grabbing a water.
"You didn't seem to have a problem with my ass being on it a month back." she slipped another chip into her mouth. He grinned.
"Touché! But get off my counter." She rolled her eyes and hopped down taking her food in the front room. One thing lead to another and she ended up with her back against his wall and legs around his waist.
Nicki shook the image out of her head and texted Damon.
Nicki
On my way home!
Damon
Where have you been? I've been calling you.
Nicki
My phone died I was taking care of some business.
She pulled out of the driveway and headed home. She began getting her story straight.
"And the lies begin." she said out loud.
Next Day
Safaree had picked up Zaria and Ethan two hours ago to take them to school. Daria was going to the doctors today to get the results from her neurological test she took a week or so ago. Nicki walked into the girls room and stared at a sleeping Daria in her bed. Nicki slid in the small bed next to her and rubbed her hand through her soft curls. She prayed her baby girl didn't struggle to much with this condition for to long.
"Daria wake up angel." Daria didn't move. Nicki planted kisses on her cheek and she turned her head. Nicki laughed and kissed her other cheek. Daria swatted at what was bugging her. "Oop. Daria wake up little girl." Nicki pulled her into her lap and she snuggled into Nicki chest. "Come on we gotta get ready and go." she stuck her pinky in her ear.
"No mommy." she whined.
"Yes." She stood her up on her feet. "Wake up." Daria stood there with her eyes closed. Nicki lifted one of her eyelids making Daria jerk her head yet.
"Mommy stop." She turned around and left out of the room going to the bathroom. Nicki laughed at her dramatics.
Nicki made her bed and pick out her outfit for the day. She noticed it was taking Daria a long time so she went to go check on her. Nicki opened the door seeing Daria with her elbows resting on her legs and her head being held up with her hands, she looked to be sleeping.
"Hey!" Nicki shouted. Daria opened one eye and looked at her then closed it. "What are you doing?"
"I have to go number two." Nicki scrunched up her face.
"Ew, hurry up so you can take your bath and eat."

Nicki and Daria had been taken to the back and were now waiting on the Dr. Landon to come in with the results. Nicki was a nervous wreck and wished Safaree could be there for support but he had a meeting he couldn't get out of, so she was stuck by herself. She watched Daria playing it her soccer ball, she was adamant about bringing.
"Ms. Maraj?" a tall muscular man asked as he walked into the room.
"Yes that's me." She put on her dazzling smile.
"Hello i'm Dr. Landon and this must be Miss. Daria?" He shook Nickis hand while looking at Daria.
"Yes that's her."
"Hi Daria."
"Hi." she waved.
"Can you sit up here for me?" she shook her head yes and climbed up the ladder, sitting on the table. He sat on his stool facing Nicki. "So we received the scores from all her test and it is confirmed that Daria does have dyslexia." he gave her a minute to let the news settle in. Nicki took a deep breath.
"Continue."
"We have drawn up papers for her school so she can be put in a selected class for reading and math. the papers states what reading level she is on and things of that nature. I'll hand these over." he gave her the envelope.
"Are we done here?" She needed air. She began fanning herself with the envelope.
"Are you feeling okay?" he asked.
"Yes." She stood up wobbling.
"No I need you to sit back down."
"I said I'm fine."
"You are not fine and I can't let you leave." he put the stethoscope buds in his ears and picked NIcki up by her waist and sat her next to Daria. Going to the door he yelled for a nurse.
"Yes?" A young Asian girl asked.
"Could you take Miss. Daria here and let her get a toy out of the treasure chest while I speak to her mother?" the girl looked at Nicki and seen her chest heaving really fast.
"Sure." she grabbed Daria and walked out the room closing the door behind her.
Dr. Landon checked her pulse, it was 175.
"Okay you need to calm down and take deep breaths. You are having a anxiety attack, everything will be okay. I'm going to go get you some water, I'll be right back." She sat fanning herself, she had sweat coming down the sides of her face.
"Calm down Nicki, like he said everything is going to be fine." she coached herself in her head. "She is a smart little girl, she will beat this." her chest slowed it's rise and fall. "She's not in this alone." she finally was able to take a deep breath. Dr. Landon came in with a cup of water.
"Drink all of this." she took the cup gulping it down. He took a paper towel and dabbed her forehead and cheeks free of sweat. "Everything will be okay. You just have to help her along with her teachers."
"I understand, can I have another cup of water and my daughter?"
"Sure I'll go get both." he came back five minutes later with a cup of water and a bubbly Daria.
"Look mommy I got a basketball." she held up a small basketball.
"Oh that's neat." Nicki said catching her breath still. Dr. Landon took her pulse rate again. It was lower but not low enough.
"I need for someone to come get you, you are in no condition to drive a car."
"I'll call her father." Nicki called Safaree. "Yeah I need you to come and get me. She's fine, I had an anxiety attack and the doctor said I can't drive."
"I'm on my way." That was all she got out before she heard the call end.
"I have a ride. thank you for everything, we're going to go wait out front."
"Alright. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call." he handed her his business card.
"Thank you. Come on Daria." they headed out to the front.
Fifteen minutes later Nicki seen Safarees Lamborghini whip around the corner but he wasn't in the drivers seat, Vincent was. Safaree hopped out and walked to Nicki quickly.
"What happen?"
"Nothing."
"What do you mean nothing? You call me breathing all heavy and you say nothing? BS try again."
"I just got a little short of breath when he said..." Nicki started to tear up. "when he confirmed she had it." Safaree pulled her into him.
"Everything will be fine Nic. She is going to be good."
"Hi daddy." Daria greeted in a chipper voice.
"Hi baby girl."
"Mommy's sad."
"I know but she'll be alright."
"Mommy don't cry. I'll try not to have it no more." this just mad Nicki cry harder because she didn't want her feeling like it was her fault.
"It's not your fault baby." Nicki said squatting down to her level. "Mommy just want you to be who you are okay?"
"Yes."
"As long as you try to do your best mommy will always be proud of you." she hugged her tight. "Mommy loves you."
"Love you too."
"To the moon and back?" Nicki pulled her back and stared at her face.
"Yeah." She shouted with a smile.
"Let's go get lunch, where do you want to eat?" Nicki dabbed at her face trying not to mess up the little bit of make-up she had on but she knew she had to reapply her face in the car.
"Fritz."
"You got it kiddo." Nicki whispered in her ear.
"Daddy can we get some cheesecake after we eat?" Daria asked. Safaree looked over at Nicki.
"What I did nothing." She gave a confused look.
"Yeah come on, but i'm only buying you some."
"Heyyyy." Nicki let out. Safaree ignored her.
"Vincent don't crash my car. Thanks for bringing me."
"I not going to crash it. Glad to see you're okay Nic."
"Thanks Vincent." With that he pulled off. The trio got in Nickis car and went about their day, Safaree made sure to keep a close eye on Nicki.
--
"Have you gotten it yet?"
"No, It's locked up somewhere."
"I wish you would hurry up, I'm growing impatient."
"Just a little more time is all I need."
"Fine but I'm not going to wait forever. Either you get what we need or I spill everything."
"There is no need for that. I'll call you in a few days."
"You better or I will have to make a visit out to California." the line went dead.

Nicki and the girls went to the ice cream shop a couple minutes away from her house. She was having mommy daughter time. She wanted to spend as much time with them as she could. Next month she started her training for her new movie and knew she would hardly see them like she could now. This would be the first time she would have to separate from them for a project longer than a week or two.
"Are you enjoying your ice cream?"
"Yes." they said together.
"Mommy do you like beans?" Zaria asked looking up from her bowl.
"Yes, mommy likes beans." Nicki looked at her for a second thinking there was a follow up question but Zaria just went back to eating. Nicki laughed. She would miss these moments with them and their innocence.
"So you two mommy needs to tell you something." They looked up at her with their big doe eyes. "You know mommy has a movie she has to make right." they shook their heads. "Well mommy has to go away for awhile to get ready for it."
"Are you going to bring us back something?" Daria questioned.
"Doesn't mommy always bring her princesses something back?"
"Yes." Daria said smiling.
"Well this time when mommy goes away she has to go away for a month."
"How long is that?" Daria asked.
"Well that's about four Sundays." Nicki said biting her lip trying to read their young faces but they still looked confused. "So when four Sundays pass mommy will be back at home."
"Okay." Zaria said getting back to her ice cream.
"That's it?" Nicki asked. She realized that she was talking to three year olds. "That went better than i thought." she said to herself. Nicki put a spoonful of her Butter pecan ice cream in her mouth then turned around to see a camera pointed at her on the other side of the glass. Nicki rolled her eyes. "Alright you two we have to go."
"But mommy." they whined.
"I'll get us some to take home but we have to go. Put your jackets on." they did as they were told.
Nicki slipped on her jacket and gathered the girls and went to the counter.
"May I have a pint of Birthday Cake, Chocolate, and Butter Pecan to go please?"
"Sure. That will be $23.18." Nicki gave her thirty and told her to keep the change. A gentleman handed her the bag with the ice cream in it.
"Come on girls." Nicki put one on each hip and walked out the door. She was approached by five paps as she made her way to her car.
"No pictures." Zaria said covering her face. Nicki reached her car.
"Hey back up and let me put my kids in the car." Nicki yelled. They complied and moved back enough for her to put them in the car. "Daria go get in your seat and I'll come strap you in." She strapped Zaria in then went around and did the same for Daria eventually getting in the car herself.
@NICKIMINAJ
I can't even go out for ice cream anymore. Geesh. Barbz I don't like paparazzi. >:( Enjoy the photos! -__-
She pulled off and headed home.
--
It had been a week or so since Safaree and Nicki had made there agreement, so far they hadn't done anything with each other. They went on with their lives as usual. Nicki needed advice so she decided to call up her girls and go for a drive. She called her house phone.
"Hello."
"Hey."
"Hey baby. What are you and the girls up to?" Damon asked.
"On our way home. Can you watch the kids for a little while longer while I go do a couple things?"
"Sure it's no problem."
"Is Ethan giving you a hard time?"
"When doesn't he? He's fine though, nothing I can't handle."
"What did he do? Put his behind on the phone."
"No Nicki he is fine. Just call me when you pull up so I can come get the girls out of the car."
"Okay I'll be there in like two seconds so come out now."
"Okay." he hung up the phone.
Nicki pulled up into the driveway and parked the car. Damon came out in nothing but his sweat pants and shoes, it was chilly outside so his nipples were hard. Nicki rolled down the window.
"Your going to be sick fool put on some clothes." she yelled.
"You know you love my body stop playing girl." He opened the door and the girls hopped out the car.
"Mmhhhm. Grab that bag and put it in the freezer please."
"Alright, be safe." he leaned in for a kiss but Nicki turned her head.
"I don't know where your lips have been." she tried to play it off by giving a small smile.
"You cold, you know that right?"
"Yeah I know. See you when I get back." she rolled back up the window and backed out to leave.
--
Nicki let herself into Laurens house and ran up the stairs to her room. She flopped down on the bed and waited for Lauren to get out of the shower. She stared at the ceiling fan going round and round and thought that is exactly how her life was going. Spinning out of control and she felt as if she had no control over it. Nicki was pulled out of her thoughts when she heard Lauren let out a scream. Nicki jumped up and screamed too."
"What's wrong?" Nicki asked.
"Your ass is what's wrong. When the hell did you get here?"
"Oh, you had me thinking something happened to your black ass. I got here like five minutes ago. I need to go for a drive."
"Must be some heavy stuff you need to get off your chest. Candi coming?"
"Yeah once we go get her."
"Alright well let me get on some clothes. Can we get something to eat while we are out?"
"I don't want anyone to see me."
"We can get fast food. I'm starving here kid."
"Fine if we must."
It was another thirty minutes until they left to go get Candi. Once they had her they stopped and got Burger King then were off down the highway, going nowhere in particular. Lauren and Candi knew how this went. Nicki wasn't going to tell them right away, she needed to figure out how to say it and it was never a quick thought process. They finished their food and just grooved to the Mary J. Blige What's the 411? album until she was ready.
"I keep fucking up." Nicki said shifting in the drivers seat.
"What do you mean?" Candi asked.
"In my relationship. I just keep fucking up." Lauren and Candi made eye contact.
"Does this involve Safaree again?" Lauren eyed her through the rear view mirror. They hit traffic and were at a standstill so Nicki through the car in park.
"Yes." she rested her head on the steering wheel.
"You did it again didn't you?" Candi asked with a smile on her face.
"Why do you have excitement in your voice when clearly I'm not okay about it." Nicki asked with an attitude.
"Calm down. So were you drunk this time as well?"
"That's the bad part about it, I was fully sober and aware."
"Damn Nic." Lauren said.
"I know right."
Traffic moved a little so she moved the car up and put it back in park.
"That can't be all to the story, we only go on drives when multiple things go wrong." Candi said.
"I volunteered to have an affair with him." she looked straight forward trying not make eye contact with anybody.
"YOU DID WHAT?" Lauren shouted.
"Yeah, you heard correctly." Nicki shook her head.
"So you are sleeping with him on the regular now?" Lauren asked.
"No. We haven't done anything since I proposed it to him."
"Nicki do you love Damon because your actions are speaking as if you don't."
"He's the reason I proposed it."
"Because he is always gone does not mean you get to cheat."
"No him having random women in his room means I can do what I want." Nicki shouted.
"When did you find this out?"
"I call him to check on him after the fitting and I hear some woman ask him what he is doing. Sounding all flirty and shit. Fuck him."
"Then why not leave?"
"I have invested in him emotionally and physically. I really did, do love him. I'm just so confused."
"But you still feel something for Safaree as well." Lauren added.
"It's like Safaree knows what I'm thinking before I do at times. He gets me."
"Then why not be with him if you feel Damon is cheating." Traffic began to flow again.
"Candi switch seats with me so I can talk." Candi climbed over Nicki and got in the drivers seat and pulled off.
"Safaree hurt me when he left." she looked at her nails. "Like it really fucked me up inside. I wasn't ready to give him up but there was nothing I could do about it. He moved on so I had to as well. I caught feelings for Damon and eventually love grew. Damon is not giving me the attention I need as a woman and I know Safaree will give me that. I don't want to leave Damon because at least I know what I get with him. With Safaree I never know."
"Nicki you are playing with fire here sis." Candi said. "It seems like you are not backing out of this little affair with SB but have you thought about what would happen if Damon finds out?"
"Did you ask him who the chick was in the background?"
"No. He still doesn't know I know. Me and his friend Phil are really good friends, I'm going to call him sometime this week and see if he knows anything about this Lesley chick."
"Why would he tell you anything if he is Damons homeboy?" Lauren asked.
"Phil is the type of person who if you're wrong he will tell you you are wrong. He has treated me like a sister since we first met three years ago." Lauren stared out the window.
"That's the girls name, Lesley?" Candi asked for clarification. Nicki looked from Lauren to Candi.
"Yeah. So what do you think Lauren?"
"Sis this is a whole big ol mess. You don't know If he is cheating so I don't think you should sleep with Safaree anymore."
"Lauren something in me is telling me he is doing something wrong. I just want to find out. And I thought about just leaving but I gave my word to him that I would marry him. I also have the kids to worry about, I can't pull someone from their lives that quickly. They are in a stable environment and I can't afford for my problems to effect them. With Daria possibly having Dyslexia I don't know if me doing something like that could set her back in any way and I'm not willing to to take that risk." the car got quiet as the three took in what Nicki just said.
"Nicki I just hope this doesn't come back and bite you in the ass. I understand you want the attention a man is supposed to give his future wife. I know you have spoken to him time and time again about it and he is not getting it, so if this is what you need to do then I get it. Just make sure you figure this out by your wedding date." Lauren sat back after she said her peace. Nicki looked over to Candi.
"What do you have to say?"
"It's your life boo. Just make sure you keep me up to date on all the freak nasty nasty that is about to take place." they all broke out into laughter.
"You are a damn freak I tell you. Freak nasty nasty, how old are we?" Nicki loved her friends for never judging her. "Where the hell are we?"
"We are entering San Diego in twenty minutes."
"Have we really been driving that long?"
"You drove for an hour and a half in silence, in a trance, we were stuck in traffic for a long minute, so yeah we are right on track. WE need to stop and get gas before we have to put you on the side of the rode to flag down a car."
"Why I gotta be the one to flag down a car?"
"You know all you gotta do is "take ya shirt off and watch the boys go nuts."" Candi said mimicking one of Nickis earlier songs.
"You are so corny." Nicki laughed. This is what she needed time to just clear her head and lay things out on the table. She had some things figured out, the grey area in her life was dwindling.
--
"Mr. Damon can you hewp me pwease?" Zaria was trying to get an orange out of the bowl in the center of the table.
"You want me to make you a snack?" he asked picking her up. She nodded her head. "You two want a snack too?" he yelled out.
"Yea pwease." Daria said walking into the kitchen. Ethan remained in the living room.
"Alright I'll make you guys a fruit tray." Damon went and pulled out Kiwi, bananas, and cuties from the fridge. "You know how to peel a orange?" he asked them. He picked them up and sat them on the counter.
"No." they said.
"What, you've never peeled an orange?" They giggled at the shocked expression on his face. "We can't have this, here." He handed them both a cutie. "Watch me." Ethan peeped his head around the corner, Damon pretended not to see him. "So you stick your finger into the orange like this, not to far you don't want the juice to squirt you in your eye. You'll go blind." Daria looked up from her orange.
"Really?"
"No, I'm just kidding sweetheart." he smiled and she went back to picking at her orange.
"Whoa." Zaria shouted because her orange slipped from her hand but she caught it in between her knees.
"Be careful." Damon picked up a banana and peeled it cutting it into slices and plated it. He began peeling the kiwi when he felt a tug on his pants leg, he looked down to see Ethan.
"Can I um...can you teach me pwease?" he looked up with his big eyes. Damon smiled.
"Sure let me get another orange. You want to get on the counter?"
"Yes." Damon went into the fridge, grabbing a orange then put Ethan next to his sisters.
"Okay you have to pick at the orange part." Ethan had seen him do it earlier so he repeated the action. "There you go."
"I'm finished." He looked at Zarias orange and it looked like she had tried to dig in it.
"Good job." At least she got the peel off, he thought. He took it from her and took Darias when she was done. "Okay go sit at the table." he placed them on the ground.
"Here." Ethan handed him his orange and jumped down following his sisters.
Damon put the fruit on a plate in the shape of two palm trees and sat it on the table for them to eat.
"Thank you." they said in unison.
Later in the day he pulled out some games for them to play together. He had been calling Nicki but couldn't through to her, he was getting worried.
"Is mommy coming home?" Zaria asked Damon, picking up the red person out of the Candy Land box.
"Yeah she will be here, let's start the game." He sat on the floor next to Daria. "Whoever wins gets ice cream."
"Yay." Zaria shouted.
Blocks Over
"No I gotta go." Nicki said trying to stop Safaree from unbuttoning her blouse for the third time. He currently had he trapped between him and the wall.
"Come on you have time." he kissed her once more.
"I really have to go, I left him there with three kids."
"You leave me all the time with them."
"It's different they are you offspring."
"Just a quickie Nicki." She kissed him on the lips.
"No Safaree. I call you later and let the kids tell you goodnight." she slipped under his arm and made her way quickly downstairs to the front door.
"Hey!" she looked up at the banister.
"What?"
"Be safe." he said.
"I'm just going around the corner. Talk to you later." She smiled and left out.
Nicki looked down at her phone and seen she had 10 missed calls from Damon.
When she dropped off Lauren and Candi she was headed home, well that's what she thought but she found herself sitting in Safarees driveway. Safaree came out and got her after awhile. When they got in the house they sat on the couch not really saying anything. Nicki felt like a freshman school girl sitting with her senior crush, she didn't know what to do or say.
"You okay?" Safaree asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, why?"
"You're just so quiet, I'm used to you being loud."
"Shut up I'm never loud." she punched him in the arm.
"Hey I told you about putting your hands on me. I'ma toss your little ass next time."
"Whatever, turn on the TV or something. Entertain me." Safaree grabbed the remote and through it to her.
"I gotta pee." he rushed off.
She found a movie then her stomach growled so she made her way to his kitchen. Nicki helped herself to a sandwich and chips. Safaree came in the kitchen to get a water and seen Nicki sitting on his counter eating.
"So not only do you raid my refrigerator but you sit your ass on my counter?" he asked grabbing a water.
"You didn't seem to have a problem with my ass being on it a month back." she slipped another chip into her mouth. He grinned.
"Touché! But get off my counter." She rolled her eyes and hopped down taking her food in the front room. One thing lead to another and she ended up with her back against his wall and legs around his waist.
Nicki shook the image out of her head and texted Damon.
On my way home!
Damon
Where have you been? I've been calling you.
Nicki
My phone died I was taking care of some business.
She pulled out of the driveway and headed home. She began getting her story straight.
"And the lies begin." she said out loud.
Next Day
Safaree had picked up Zaria and Ethan two hours ago to take them to school. Daria was going to the doctors today to get the results from her neurological test she took a week or so ago. Nicki walked into the girls room and stared at a sleeping Daria in her bed. Nicki slid in the small bed next to her and rubbed her hand through her soft curls. She prayed her baby girl didn't struggle to much with this condition for to long.
"Daria wake up angel." Daria didn't move. Nicki planted kisses on her cheek and she turned her head. Nicki laughed and kissed her other cheek. Daria swatted at what was bugging her. "Oop. Daria wake up little girl." Nicki pulled her into her lap and she snuggled into Nicki chest. "Come on we gotta get ready and go." she stuck her pinky in her ear.
"No mommy." she whined.
"Yes." She stood her up on her feet. "Wake up." Daria stood there with her eyes closed. Nicki lifted one of her eyelids making Daria jerk her head yet.
"Mommy stop." She turned around and left out of the room going to the bathroom. Nicki laughed at her dramatics.
Nicki made her bed and pick out her outfit for the day. She noticed it was taking Daria a long time so she went to go check on her. Nicki opened the door seeing Daria with her elbows resting on her legs and her head being held up with her hands, she looked to be sleeping.
"Hey!" Nicki shouted. Daria opened one eye and looked at her then closed it. "What are you doing?"
"I have to go number two." Nicki scrunched up her face.
"Ew, hurry up so you can take your bath and eat."
--
Nicki and Daria had been taken to the back and were now waiting on the Dr. Landon to come in with the results. Nicki was a nervous wreck and wished Safaree could be there for support but he had a meeting he couldn't get out of, so she was stuck by herself. She watched Daria playing it her soccer ball, she was adamant about bringing.
"Ms. Maraj?" a tall muscular man asked as he walked into the room.
"Yes that's me." She put on her dazzling smile.
"Hello i'm Dr. Landon and this must be Miss. Daria?" He shook Nickis hand while looking at Daria.
"Yes that's her."
"Hi Daria."
"Hi." she waved.
"Can you sit up here for me?" she shook her head yes and climbed up the ladder, sitting on the table. He sat on his stool facing Nicki. "So we received the scores from all her test and it is confirmed that Daria does have dyslexia." he gave her a minute to let the news settle in. Nicki took a deep breath.
"Continue."
"We have drawn up papers for her school so she can be put in a selected class for reading and math. the papers states what reading level she is on and things of that nature. I'll hand these over." he gave her the envelope.
"Are we done here?" She needed air. She began fanning herself with the envelope.
"Are you feeling okay?" he asked.
"Yes." She stood up wobbling.
"No I need you to sit back down."
"I said I'm fine."
"You are not fine and I can't let you leave." he put the stethoscope buds in his ears and picked NIcki up by her waist and sat her next to Daria. Going to the door he yelled for a nurse.
"Yes?" A young Asian girl asked.
"Could you take Miss. Daria here and let her get a toy out of the treasure chest while I speak to her mother?" the girl looked at Nicki and seen her chest heaving really fast.
"Sure." she grabbed Daria and walked out the room closing the door behind her.
Dr. Landon checked her pulse, it was 175.
"Okay you need to calm down and take deep breaths. You are having a anxiety attack, everything will be okay. I'm going to go get you some water, I'll be right back." She sat fanning herself, she had sweat coming down the sides of her face.
"Calm down Nicki, like he said everything is going to be fine." she coached herself in her head. "She is a smart little girl, she will beat this." her chest slowed it's rise and fall. "She's not in this alone." she finally was able to take a deep breath. Dr. Landon came in with a cup of water.
"Drink all of this." she took the cup gulping it down. He took a paper towel and dabbed her forehead and cheeks free of sweat. "Everything will be okay. You just have to help her along with her teachers."
"I understand, can I have another cup of water and my daughter?"
"Sure I'll go get both." he came back five minutes later with a cup of water and a bubbly Daria.
"Look mommy I got a basketball." she held up a small basketball.
"Oh that's neat." Nicki said catching her breath still. Dr. Landon took her pulse rate again. It was lower but not low enough.
"I need for someone to come get you, you are in no condition to drive a car."
"I'll call her father." Nicki called Safaree. "Yeah I need you to come and get me. She's fine, I had an anxiety attack and the doctor said I can't drive."
"I'm on my way." That was all she got out before she heard the call end.
"I have a ride. thank you for everything, we're going to go wait out front."
"Alright. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call." he handed her his business card.
"Thank you. Come on Daria." they headed out to the front.
Fifteen minutes later Nicki seen Safarees Lamborghini whip around the corner but he wasn't in the drivers seat, Vincent was. Safaree hopped out and walked to Nicki quickly.
"What happen?"
"Nothing."
"What do you mean nothing? You call me breathing all heavy and you say nothing? BS try again."
"I just got a little short of breath when he said..." Nicki started to tear up. "when he confirmed she had it." Safaree pulled her into him.
"Everything will be fine Nic. She is going to be good."
"Hi daddy." Daria greeted in a chipper voice.
"Hi baby girl."
"Mommy's sad."
"I know but she'll be alright."
"Mommy don't cry. I'll try not to have it no more." this just mad Nicki cry harder because she didn't want her feeling like it was her fault.
"It's not your fault baby." Nicki said squatting down to her level. "Mommy just want you to be who you are okay?"
"Yes."
"As long as you try to do your best mommy will always be proud of you." she hugged her tight. "Mommy loves you."
"Love you too."
"To the moon and back?" Nicki pulled her back and stared at her face.
"Yeah." She shouted with a smile.
"Let's go get lunch, where do you want to eat?" Nicki dabbed at her face trying not to mess up the little bit of make-up she had on but she knew she had to reapply her face in the car.
"Fritz."
"You got it kiddo." Nicki whispered in her ear.
"Daddy can we get some cheesecake after we eat?" Daria asked. Safaree looked over at Nicki.
"What I did nothing." She gave a confused look.
"Yeah come on, but i'm only buying you some."
"Heyyyy." Nicki let out. Safaree ignored her.
"Vincent don't crash my car. Thanks for bringing me."
"I not going to crash it. Glad to see you're okay Nic."
"Thanks Vincent." With that he pulled off. The trio got in Nickis car and went about their day, Safaree made sure to keep a close eye on Nicki.
--
"Have you gotten it yet?"
"No, It's locked up somewhere."
"I wish you would hurry up, I'm growing impatient."
"Just a little more time is all I need."
"Fine but I'm not going to wait forever. Either you get what we need or I spill everything."
"There is no need for that. I'll call you in a few days."
"You better or I will have to make a visit out to California." the line went dead.
