Ashley POV

I wake up to my phone ringing non stop. I hurry and grab it and make my way to the bathroom so I don't wake Izzy up. I see that it's only 2 o'clock in the afternoon before answering Bri's call.

" wussap girl" I say sitting on the toilet.

" bitch have you checked online" she says as I put her on speaker

" No why" I say before going to instagram. As soon as I open it I see thousands of people have followed me and many mentions.

" hold on I'm sending it to you" she says before sending me a shaderoom post. It's pictures of Izzy and I at the restaurant. One of us walking in and one of his hand on top of mine across the table. The post had the caption : looks like the rumors of BandhuntaIzzy having a new baby is true and This is his supposed baby momma👀

"Bitch you got the internet going crazy" she says laughing as I read through the comments

Unknown: man atleast she's pretty

KendalKenndal: so this the girl who broke him and Nique up huh ? 🤫

I roll my eyes at the comments of people who got something to say but don't even know the situation. And then there's the nice ones where I guess all the followers came from. I exit out of Instagram and take the phone off of speaker.

" ion know why I thought people would mind they business" I shake my head

" so... are y'all together or" Bri asks for confirmation

"No we are not... yet" I say the last part lowly causing her to scream in my ear. " really bitch" I ay as she laughs

" my bad girl" she apologizes. " you home I'm by your house"

"No... I'm at Izzys" I say causing her to scream again

"Damn bitch you getting some dick?" Bri has no filter at all

"No! I- well we were taking a nap" I say as i shake my head

"Okay bitch I see you" she says

" whatever Bri" I say before we say our goodbyes. I walk out the bathroom to see Izzy still sleep so I take the chance to go check on our son. I see that he isn't in his room so I walk back down stairs to the living room. They aren't in there either so I explore the house a little until I come up on Ms.Sharons room which has the door cracked. I knock three times to be polite.

"Come in" she says before I walk into the well decorated room. She and Aiden are on the bed while he tries to occupy hisself with his hands.

"Don't do that bubby" I say grabbing him off the bed and gently moving his hands. "Was he good?" I ask ms.Sharon

"Was he? Child that baby is an angel he didn't cry not once" she says making me smile down at the little boy in my arms. I depart from her room with Aiden before heading back up the stairs. Sitting criss cross on the bed I turn the tv on to Disney + so that I can watch that's so raven. I look down to see Aiden making noises with his mouth open. I noticed he does that when he is hungry so I waste no time lifting the large shirt up and letting him latch on. I begin going through my emails before I feel movement beside me. I look over from my phone to see Izzy kissing Aiden on his forehead. I smirk before returning some of the emails as I feel Izzy roll back over.

By now Aiden is finished so I burp him. I see Izzy sit up from the corner of my eye before sit up with his phone in hand. I mind my business and continue to watch the tv ahead.

"You seen this?" He turns his phone around clenching his jaw.

"Yeah when I woke up" I say truthfully.

"it don't bother you?" He asks me

" I mean yeah a little, but it's already out it's nothing neither one of us can do about it" I say before I hear Aidens tiny burp. I can't lie I didn't want to be in the public eye but there's nothing I can do now.

"I'm saying I can have my team put out a-". I stop him

" it's okay" I say softly looking Izzy directly in his eyes. His phone rings breaking our eye contact.

" hold on real quick" he says before getting up and walking out of the room

I stay there for a moment until Aiden begins to whine a little.

Third POV

" wussap man" Izzy speaks through the phone to his publicist

" hey Izzy I just seen the photos of you and a lovely woman online which I didn't have any knowledge of" the man says through the line. He was a little confused as it was his job to control what the world sees but this one was a surprise.

" yeah man me and my baby moms went out for breakfast and I guess somebody took pictures" Izzy says walking towards the stair case.

" does she know about it? I mean people are going to be recognizing her now so I suggest she be prepared for it" his publicist says.

While Izzy is on the phone, Ashley is back in the master suite looking for a pacifier for her whining son

" I'm looking baby" she says looking in her purse for the one usually kept inside. "Shit" she curses when she cannot find it.

Back downstairs a slight knock on the door interrupts Izzys phone call. Izzy turns around looking at the door since he isn't expecting anyone.

"Ima call you back man" he hangs up the phone. He pays no mind that he is still dressed in his grey joggers without a shirt on and proceeds to the door.

He opens it up to see the last person he expected it to be.

Nique.

She almost looks shocked when he opens the door since she didn't know if he was home.

" yeah" he answers her bluntly trying to understand why she was standing at her door.

"Umm... I was wondering if we could talk" she says innocently looking down at her nails.

" about" Izzy says bluntly

" us" she says lowly hoping he would give in

" and why would I want to do that" he scrunches up his face

At this time Ashley is still looking for the missing pacifier in the nursery. She can across a pack of some in there but they are currently too big for her child.

" I was just hoping that we could discuss things. We didn't end things well and I'm still in love with you and I know you are-" she is cut off by Ashley's voice coming down the stairs

"Israel, have you seen Aidens binkie? I can't find it" she says reaching the bottom of the stairs with her child in hand. She looks up seeing Izzy at the door with a wide mouth Zonnique standing on the other side.

Nique looked at the other girl inching closer to them. She took in Izzys bare chest and Ashley wearing one of his shirts but could not see the shorts underneath so assumed she had none.

She couldn't understand why Ashley was here. In the house she once occupied her time. Why she was holding the baby she deserved. Why was Ashley living the life that was meant to be hers?

"What is that Bitch doing here?" Nique spat out with disgust.

" excuse me?" Ashley said standing behind Izzy. How close the two were made Nique sick and before she knew it she lunged towards Ashley no caring about the small child she had in her arms.

Izzy grabbed her back before she could do anything pushing her back almost causing her to fall over.

" Ashley take Aiden upstairs" Izzy says before closing the door walking onto his front porch

"THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU" he yells as a dramatic Nique who found herself on the ground

"And get up" he yells making her flinch

"Why is she here Izzy" Nique cries out with tears falling rapidly

"Because she can be" Izzy say nonchalantly learning against the door frame. "You must've lost your mind tryna jump on her while she got MY SON IN HER ARMS!!!" He yells again.

"Is she your bitch or something" she yells out

" and if she is" Izzy says shutting her up.

" are you serious Israel? I love you!" Nique says thinking that'll fix things

" man Nique gone somewhere" he says turning back around to open the door to his house before locking it. He then calls the neighborhood security to come make sure she leaves.

Outside Nique stands there for a second shocked at what just happened. She was so used to just having Izzy wrapped around her fingers she couldn't comprehend it. She had already seen the pictures of Izzy and Ashley on Instagram but to see her in his house really set her off. She walked back to her car before staring into space. Replaying the past events over and over in her head before beginning to yell and punch her steering wheel repeatedly. After a few seconds she gains her composure and starts to engine and heads back to her parents place.

Back upstairs Ashley's blood is raging. "Did this bitch really try and jump on me with my son in my hands" she talks to herself pacing back in forth in Izzys room. Ms.Sharon heard the commotion and came to get Aiden so he would feel there negative energy.

It isn't long before Izzy coming back into the room and sitting on the couch in his lounge area. He watches Ashley as she curses in her native language pulling her hair up into a high ponytail.

"Come here" he says lowly but loud enough for her to hear him. She continues her pacing as if she didn't hear him but she did loud and clear

" Ian gone repeat myself Ashley." He says as she halts and slowly makes her way over to him. She takes a seat on the other side of the couch.

"Who told you to sit right there" he says causing her to look up and move to his lap. She stays quiet as she is still mad as hell but was trying to contain it.

"Aye" he places his hand under her chin making her lift her head up. " don't let her get to you" he says to her

"And how am I supposed to do that? The bitch really didn't give a fuck about the infant in my arms" she snaps at him, not purposely though.

"I know you mad but I got it" he looks at her " you hear me" Ashley nods her head. It was something about Izzy that just calmed her; made her feel at peace. It was almost as if she was never mad at all.

" I want a restraining order"Ashley vocalizes " she obviously is a threat to me and our son and I don't want her anywhere around me" she states. Everytime Nique comes around bad energy follows from her randomly staring at her at the grocery store to now. Ashley was not willing to take any chances wit the girl sundae she's clearly emotionally unstable.

"Ight I'll call my people" Izzy does not hesitate. He understands where Ashley was coming from completely. He was not willing to let anything happen to her or his son. Damn sure not in the hands of his crazy ex.

Still staring in each other's eyes intensely, Ashley takes the first step and leans into his lips beginning to kiss his plump lips. Izzy returns by wrapping his hands around her waist holding her tight. The kiss was slow and tender like the one before. Ashley loved the feeling she felt when their lips attached and if Izzy could have it his way he would kiss her all day long.

Ashley pulls slowly away wiping his lip with her manicured thumb smirking as his eyes never leave her.

Ashley unwraps his arms from her waist hopping up from his lap.

" where you going" Izzy asks confused

"To find something to eat .., and you coming too." She plus his up by his toned arm. The two make their way down stairs where they snuck some food Ms. Sharon was in the middle of cooking for dinner. The two scrambled their way back upstairs when they heard her voice coming towards the kitchen so that they wouldn't get caught.

As they finally made it upstairs Izzy closed the room door breathing heavy before sitting beside Ashley and eating the stolen food.

" who been in my pots?!" They here his mother yell before busting into a serious laughter that causes their stomach to hurt.

They spent the rest of their day watching movies and taking care of there son as much as they could since his mother claimed she doesn't see the baby as much as she would like too.

Ashley enjoyed being somewhere different than her cramped apartment. Don't get her wrong she loves her apartment but she was in need of a change of scenery.

Izzy on the other hand was glad that he had finally expressed how he felt to Ashley. It was eating him alive and has been for a while now. He just hopes that everything goes well between the two since they are stuck together for the rest of their lives. Ashley was different than anyone else he had ever experience. She was smart independent, caring, and a great mother.

" why you staring at me" Ashley breaks Izzy out of his stare

" ain't nobody staring at you" he says sucking his teeth

" you ain't gotta lie about it" Ashley hits his arm

" man stop hitting me" he says to her

"Or what" Ashley challenges Before Izzy rolls on top of her letting all his weight rest on her as her legs are on either side of him

" okay okay you got it" Ashley surrenders trying to gasp for air.

" I know I do" Izzy says lifting up so that he is hovering over her body before leaning in with a kiss Ashley wraps her arms around his neck pulling him in closer.

There are interrupted by a knock on the door

" this baby hungry and y'all out of milk" Sharon says on the other side holding Aiden. She knew that her son wanted Ashley and could'nt see why the two were playing as did everyone else.

In the room Israel hops up opening the door and grabs Aiden before heading to Ashley for him to feed.

" and bring him back when he done. We watching the have and the have nots right now" Sharon says causing the two to laugh before attending to their son.
