The sequel to Bad So Bad.
"Party Party Party" The Girls sang happily with Linda the house chefas Yana and Indie put fostering on the mini cupcakes.
Drake and Aubrey Jr were still sound asleep, in Drake's bedroom. It is exactlya year since the birth of AJ. Nicki and Drake had planned a birthday partymonths ago. Yana and Indie have been nothing but helpful this past Year.
Nicki and Drake have put their relationship on hold. Yes, they love each otherand yes, they have three kids together. But Nicki felt like he is not payingany attention to the little things she does. So she moved out, 4 weeks ago butshe come around every day. So she basically never really left. For the pastweek Drake has taken her out on little romantic dates like he used too. She washoping today would be the day she move back in.
Nicki walked in to the house as per usual and check her mail. She looked up slightlyto see the children's nanny walking around in bikini. "Carrie, my kids arein the house." Nicki joked. Aubrey Jr birthday party was a pool party.
"Oh Hey Nicki. I would rather wear clothes but my boyfriend wants mewalking around cleaning like this." Carrie smiled deviously.
"Who is this boyfriend of yours?" Nicki asked. She was a little moreinterested in where this conversation was going.
"Drake…" Nicki's jaw dropped, now she was fuming.
"DRAKE!" Nicki stormed pass Carrie and when into the room they onceshared. "Drake What the F.... Fudge Cakes?" She stopped herself fromcursing once she realised her son was sleeping.
Drake lifted up his eye lids slowly when he heard the door slam shut.
"Nicki, what's wrong??" Drake said laying AJ down.
Nicki started to cry. How could he move on without telling her? He proposed toher just a year ago. This separation was not permanent, she just needed space.She just wanted him to appreciate her more. That's all she wanted.
He stood up from the bed and hugged her, but she pushed him away.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Drake repeated himself. Nicki stared at him withbetrayal in the eyes and new tears sliding down her red hot cheeks.
"How could you?"
"What did I do???"
"You and Carrie, are you together?"
"We… we uh have a relationship with an agreement."
"Do you even want me?"
"Of course I do."
"No you don't if you did you would have waited for me."
"Nicki I..."
"Save it for your girlfriend." Nicki bushed her shoulder aggressivelyagainst his to wake up AJ.
"Wake up baby." He woke up to the sound of his mothers hush voice.
"Mama" he said sheepishly, the distraught Barbie wiped her tears awayas he opened her almond shaped eyes.
"Happy Birthday Prince AJ" she picked him up and kissed his tinysmooth face. "Come on time to get the birthday boy ready for theday."
Drake just stood there in awe. Wondering what he had to do to make her love himagain. He should have just waited for her. He love Nicki a lot he just wantedsomeone to hold and Carrie was there. Not a very smart move.
He had to show her that he still loves her. More than life. He did propose. Sheis still wearing the ring it must be a sign. 6years ago he when through hell heis not about to do that again. Especially now they have 3children to thinkabout. It hit him, he need to cut Carrie from his life meaning No 'relationshipagreement' and No nanny. He was willing to do anything to get her back.
30minutes later, Nicki walked back into the room. Drake had left, she figuredhe was downstairs. AJ was dressed and ready for his party. Nicki on the otherhand was a mess. She had a billion and one thoughts running through her mindabout Drake and Carrie. She wanted to cry so bad but not in front of her son,so she held it in. The way Carrie shamelessly walked around her house... Nickishook her head and took a deep breath.
She threw on a grey bikini and pink shorts. Then picked up a hyper AJ andheaded down stairs.
Yana and Indie was watching Shake it Up, quietly waiting for people to arrivefor the party. "Yana, Indie." They mother called from the bottom ofthe stair case.
"Hey Mommy." They said simultaneously. "Look what we made."They said in unison again. It's a thing twin. Nicki giggled and put AJ down towalk. The twins pulled her to the kitchen to show her the beautiful cupcakesthey made with Linda.
"Ooo may I have one???" Nicki asked.
"Sure!" Yana said "I made this one"
"No I made that one...” Indie argued.
"Oh brother." Nicki muttered. "Well I will eat on that Tatyanamade and one Indiana made. Is that fair?" Nicki questioned the twins.
As they nodded, Carrie yelled, "What the Fuck do you mean??" Nicki'seyes grow wide. She does not want her children to be exposed to such language.
"Girls go upstairs and get ready for your brothers party."
They nodded once again and ran up the stairs. "No running in myhouse!" Nicki was intrigued to what was going on, on the patio. She put AJin his high chair and asked Linda to get him something to eat. Nicki was notone to eardrop but she overheard Drake and Carrie conversation.
"So you fuck me and fire me. Mad Class, Drake."
"I didn't sleep with you Carrie. I just slept in the same bed asyou." Nicki was confused, she thought had slept together.
"But you asked me out, you took me out." 'You’re a fool' Nickithought. That was a statement for the both of them.
"I'm sorry about that I guess I just needed some comfort I waslonely." Nicki didn't know how to feel about the whole situation. It wassilent after Drake spoke. She opened the glass doors in the kitchen that leadto the patio. "I don't mean to intrude but can y'all keep the noise down.My babies are in the house."
"Don't worry Nicki I was just leaving."
"Leaving?? Where you going?"
"Home. I just got fired. Hope y'all have a nice life." Carrie walkedin to the house; mad, heartbroken, upset, just a few words to describe her atthat moment.
Nicki just stood in the same place for 5minutes, not exactly sure on what tosay. She just thought it was so disrespectful for Carrie to do what she did.Drake just was not in her good books. She just watched Drake start up thebarbecue, shook her head then walk back into the house slamming the patio door.She didn't know whether to cry or scream. Drake is so stupid. She sighed,"Something's gotta give."
It was 2pm, family and friend had arrived, and everyone was enjoyingthemselves. Nicki had to put on a brave face for her family and friend. She didwant anyone fussing over her and Aubz relationship at their son first birthday.Nicki sat on the patio with the mothers and besties. Drake was over by thebarbecue will his boys laughing and joking. The kids were in the pool or on thewater slide.
Yana and Indie walked over to their mother, who was wearing similar bikini tothe twin's bathing suits.
"Yes girls?" Nicki asked already knowing that something happened bythe looked on the face.
"Baby Tune got gum in our hair, now we are stuck together." Tatyanaexclaimed being the oldest twin.
"Oh my Babies," She motioned for them to come over to her."Wayne, get you kid." She joked.
"Why? What he do??"
"Put gum in my babies hair."
"Sorry Nicki." He walked over to baby tune.
Nicki walked into the kitchen with the girls. She examined they hair thencalled Lauren.
"They need to cut it out." Nicki informed her Bestie. Lauren got outtiny scissor for her purse. "Oh my God, I can't sit here and watchthis." Lauren and the girls watch Nicki break down. "That's babyhairs. I ain't never cut they hair a day in my life." Nicki had real tearsin her eyes.
"Aw Mommy." The twins cooed at the same time and hugged her. Laurengot her a tissue box.
"Don't worry Nicki I will only cut what I need to for them to break loose.Okay?" Nicki nodded drying her tears. "Come on girls." Nickiclosed her eyes as she heard the sound of the scissors. "Done"
"Thank you Aunty Lauren. You okay mommy?" Indie asked.
"Yes Baby, let's go outside."
Once Nicki walked outside she caught Drakes eye.
"Aye Nic, you alright?" he questioned. She nodded. Deep down Nickiknew she wasn't just crying because of the hair thing. It was something more. Sheknew they had to talk but she was not about to spoil her son's day, no matterhow much she was hurting inside.
7pm, the party finished at 5 but only the close friend stayed; Lauren, LilWayne, Candi, Niko, Lauren London, SB, Amber and 40.
The children were asleep upstairs and the adults were drinking downstairs.
"Anyway though, let get off that nasty ass topic." Candi commented.
"Yeah, so Nicki." LL called her name.
"Huh?" Nicki was miles away.
"When are you and Drake getting married? I mean you've had that ring on yourfinger for a year." Nicki was in shock, so covered her left hand with herright, hiding the ring.
"Uh… Ummm" Nicki searched for something to say, she just might haveto tell the truth. "We... Uh..." Drake interrupted her.
"We decided that we was gonna pick a date tomorrow." Nicki shot aninvisible (to the people around them) glare at him. Nicki stood up without aword and went upstairs.
"What's wrong with her?" SB asked.
"I don't know" Drake replied, but he did. Nicki and him shared thismagical connection only twins shared, except they won't twins. He felt what shefelt. He thinks what she thinks. "It's getting late."
"Yeah Nigga I will see when I see you." Wayne said picking up babytune.
"Aight!"
"Tell Nicki we said bye." LL said picking up her son Cameron.
"Well do,"
Once everyone left Drake searched the whole house for Nicki; there she was in thebedroom they once shared, the bedroom he betray her love. There she was,crying.
"Nicki…" Drake breathed.
"Please don't talk to me." she said in a hush tone.
"Nicki, I…"
"Close the door." she demanded. He obeyed her command. 27 year old,Onika Maraj was sick and tired. Sitting on the king size bed with head in herhands. Tired of bullshit. "Drake, why? Why do love to hurt me... Make mefall deeply in love with you, give you 3 beautiful kids. I'm I not enough foryou. Do you want more?" she spoke through her tears. "You know what?I'm so done with you Aubrey" Nicki stood up. Drake blocked the door."Move!"
"No!"
"Ugh Move"
"No Onika!" Drake shouted.
"Move Move Move MOVE!" she yelled, slapping him five times with everyword. He just took it like a man until it was became painful. He grabbed holdof her wrists. "I hate you. I hate you. I hate that you have made me weak!I HATE YOU" She screamed in his face. He pinned her up against the door.Nicki was fuming. Red face, waterfall tears, all that. Drake afraid of hernails had her hands over her head.
"Now listen hear Onika, no matter what you say I know you still love methat why you wearing the ring." he smirked
"I wear it for the kids." Nicki spat,
"Is that so?" She nodded, "Well to me you are still the samestrong women I meet 10years ago. You will always have my heart my love. I oweyou, I know. I should have never done what I did and I don't deserve you but Ineed you, I can sleep without you I can't live without you please. Please"He released her hands and kissed her.
Whenever he kissed her she was on cloud 9. A fantasy world. A fairy tale. Thatsoon proofed away. There was a knock on the bedroom door.
Drake pulled away.
"Who?" He asked.
"Us"
"Who is us?"
"Tatyana, Indiana and AJ" Nicki quickly wiped her tears and sat onthe bed.
"Oh..." Drake opened the door.
The girls looked at their mother "Is everything okay???"
"Yes Indie" Nicki replied.
"Okay" The twins are only 6 almost 7 but they are not stupid theyknow when something's up. They were willing to let this one slide. "Mommy,remember you said we was gonna go get ice cream." Nicki chuckled.
"You woke up for that?"
"Yep" the girls said.
"Um… okay. Go and get your shoes on. Yana bring me your brother shoeplease."
"Okay." As they left Drake close the door.
"Our conversation isn't over Nicki."She closed her eyes and picked upAJ heading to the car.
Nicki decided to go to the grocery store instead. She put the TV on in the backso she could think without any interruption. But it didn't work.
Indie took of her headphones.
"Mama, why do you hate daddy??" Nicki stammered
"I...I…I don't Hate'm"
"Then why did you say it? I thought you said, say what you mean and meanwhat you say and if what you have to say is mean don't say it." Could thisbe a 6year old had Nicki speechless?
"Yes but in this situation it's different."
"How so?"
Nicki didn't want to tell her 6years what was happening behind closed doors."You ask too many questions little one."
"Are you getting a divorce?" Nicki's grow wide.
"No! We are not even married Indie."
"Oh!" Indie shrugged.
"Who taught you that word?" Nicki was intrigued.
"Elizabeth, her parents are divorced and now her mommy has a boyfriendthat buys her everything she wants. Mommy do you have a boyfriend??" indieasked with a curious filled voice.
Nicki chuckled. "No Indie"
"Oh!" Indie put her headphone back on, leaving her mother chuckling.
The trip to the grocery stores was a success. The girls were mommy's littlehelpers. They had mini trolleys and Tatyana put AJ in her trolley so hewouldn't run around. They bought two big tubs of ice cream for Nicki (ButterPecan) and two middle tubs of Hagen Daz for the twins. AJ got baby pots ofstrawberry yogurt.
It's was 10pm Nicki had sent the babies to bed, she check they were all asleepbefore grabbing her bag to leave. "Nicki." she just continued walkingtowards the bedroom door. "Nicki" he grabbed hold of her forearm andswung her round to face him.
"What?" She said with frustration, accidentally dropping bag.
"How did we get like this? We used to be so in love."
"So you’re not in love with me no more?" Nicki asked snatching her armout of his grip.
"I never said that."
"It was implied" There was a few moments of silence.
Drake spoke, "Do you still love me?"
Nicki had knots in her throat as she spoke, "I never stopped"
Drake cupped her left cheek with his right hand and pulled her close. Shelooked up in his heavenly hazel eyes.
They lips were only millimetres apart before Nicki pulled away.
"No, we always end up like this, we fight, neither one of us can rememberwhy, we suffer then we get back together. If we are going to do this, we do itright." she wiped her tears with the palm of her soft hand. "I don'twant a divorce or separation. We stick it out to the end." Indie was stillin the back of Nicki's head.
"So what are you saying?"
"I'm saying that I miss you and I want you back."
Drake was beyond happy; his smile gave away his emotion. He didn't sayanything; there was nothing to say. Words couldn't describe how he felt onlyactions. He wrapped his around her tiny waist and kissed her. A Long,passionate, magical kiss; it was needed.
They lips never departed. But they did have a well needed sex session.
All was good in love, sex and magic.
Should I do a Wedding Special???
