Walking into our hotel room after shopping and eating, I put her things away then led Aubree to the bed. She sat down and I began taking off her shoes. She won't stop wearing these damn heels but she knows what she's doing so I ain't worried. Once her shoes were off I stood up and kissed her forehead. "I'll be back."

She nodded and I walked into the bathroom. Grabbing some bubbles I bought, I poured a little into the tub and turned on the water. I know she likes her bath water hot as hell but that ain't happening tonight.

We really needed this time away. I wish we could've flew somewhere but this will do. We'll save the exotic trip for our honeymoon.

Once her water was filled high enough, I went back out to the room. She stood out on the balcony staring out at the water. My arms wrapped around her waist. "It's beautiful, isn't it?" I asked.

"Yeah." Her eyes moved up to the sky. "I love how the stars shine so much brighter here. If we didn't have three little ones, I would've definitely wanted a beach house."

"Well they gotta grow up one day. We'll get our beach house." I kissed her forehead. "Come on, I ran you a nice bath." I pulled her back inside the hotel room. After closing the patio door, I shut the curtains then started undressing Aubree. When I got ready to take her into the bathroom she pulled back and started tugging on my jeans.

"Join me, please."

Nodding, I stepped back and got undressed.

Once my clothes were off, she stepped back and looked at me, biting her lip. With all the madness that had been going on, Aubree and I have had sex in almost a month. That shit is very rare for us.

When we got in the tub, she rested against my chest and my hands rubbed her stomach causing my son to kick.

"Have you thought about any plans for the wedding?" I asked.

"Yes, I have. I want the wedding at a big cathedral church, I haven't found one yet. I want our reception at Taglyan Cultural. I haven't picked out the colors yet, that's something that I wanted both of us to do that. I'm not sure if I want a wedding party because I only have two friends and most of my family I'm not close with due to my dad being in the army and having to move all the time. I know you probably want your boys up there with you though."

"Naw, they don't have to be. It's about us, not them."

"Exactly. So that's settled. We're definitely having a summer wedding. Once the baby is born, I'll start trying on my dresses and everything."

"Dresses?"

"Yes, I will be changing throughout the night. I'm think three times. My ceremony dress, a nice sexy gown to get the party started and a fly ass jumpsuit to end the night end."

"I'm about to be broke huh?"

"Yup." She laughed. "You know I'm helping."

"No you're not. I got this. Take your money and get other shit, I got this covered."

"Mmhm, I can see my crazy spending causing arguments. I want my wedding to be a fairytale Chris."

"It will be, don't worry."

"Okay."

It got quiet. I drew circles around her belly button. Her stomach was so tiny. Ever appointment we go to, I ask if this is how small she's supposed to be and I get the same answers. Aubree had to explain my situation, so now her OB makes sure to discuss the baby's growth with me.

"Who do you think he's going to look like?" Aubree asked.

"Do you see Royalty? You know exactly who he's going to look like."

She chuckled. "He could have some of my features."

"I just hope not them jay-z lips."

She gasped, sitting up and looking at me. "Are you serious?!" Her hand covered her mouth.

"Baby I love you, but sometimes I look at you and just be like damn this girl got some big ass lips."

She just stared at me in shock until her eyes filled with tears. "Jay-Z lips?!"

"It was a joke baby."

"That shit ain't funny!"

"It really is."

"It's not! You don't see me talking about that fucked up ass hairline, or them crooked ass teeth, or that droopy ass bottom lip you got! If you keep bleaching yo hair you gone end up bald bitch." She stood up and got out the tub.

"No matter what you say to me yo lips still big as hell."

"Fuck you!" Aubree wrapped a towel around her body and stormed out the bathroom.

Once I controlled my laughing, I climbed out and wrapped a towel around my waist. "Come here baby."

"Leave me alone."

"For real Aubree come here."

"No! Leave me the hell alone. You don't talk about anything on a pregnant woman. Everything mean hurt my feelings."

"You just talked about my teeth and my bottom lip."

"Be mad at ya mama not me nigga."

"Aubree stop playing with me."

"I should've really hurt yo ugly ass feelings! I can't believe you talked about me."

"It was a joke."

"And yo mama tummy tuck was a joke. Tell her we see that fake ass belly button."

My jaw dropped. Yooooooo, did she really just go there. "Aubree Nicole Mack, you DO NOT want to talk about mama's baby. You definitely should not talk about mama's."

"What can you say my mama was on drugs, we know that."

"And we all know about my mama surgery but you ain't About to try to play her like she ain't out here killing shit."

She laughed. "Boy shut yo dumb ass up!"

"Maybe She should give yo mama her surgeons number. She got that fat, after crack snorting belly."

"Boy those crackhead jokes don't hurt me, she was snorting, not me."

"Apologize for talking about my mama."

"You talked about my lips."

"So that mean talk about my mama?!"

"Say Sorry then I'll say sorry." She folded her arms over her chest.

"You tripping."

"Am I?"

"Hell yeah! It was small joke and you just went far and beyond."

She started crying again. "I already hate my lips and you just had to joke about them. I haven't been feeling pretty lately and what you said didn't help. Why do you have to be so stupid and mean all the time?" She wiped her tears away. "Now when I get a lip reduction and I'm sucking yo dick and you don't feel these big ass juicy lips no more don't say shit to me, PERIOD'T."

"Alright I'm sorry." I rushed over to her and hugged her. "I love them juicy lips. They feel so good when I kiss them, when you sucking on me. I love these liiiiiips."

"Mmhm, I bet you do."

"Now I apologize for the tummy tuck joke."

She laughed. "I'm sorry about the tummy tuck joke. Ya mom do be looking cute, I can't wait to hook her up with a new fine ass nigga."

"You pushing it now."

"I'm being honest."

"Aubree my mama not dating nobody and that's on my daddy nigga."

"Ooo, somebodies mad." She smirked.

"She staying single forever. Let me find out you trying to hook her up."

"Alright I won't......yet."

"Whatever."

"Now show me how sorry you are about that lip joke."

I stood up and pulled my towel off then pulled off hers. "Will do."
