🤔

Three Weeks Later.

Everybody met up at my crib so that we could talk about what was going to go down with my pops. Me and my bros, Sinko included came up with a plan to get this nigga out of here once and for all. Yesterday, I explained to Dave what was going on. He wasn't shocked at all and was more than willing to help us get rid of my dad.

We all sat around chilling, waiting for the main person we need to show up, Aubree.

My baby might not be for this so I'm going to have to do a lot of convincing. I know my dad has this weird attraction to her so I need to use that to my advantage. And if this goes the way I think it is, we can kill him and get away with it.

"Man where Aubree? She taking all day and I'm starving." Mijo said.

"Nigga she coming. She said she had to make a quick stop." I responded. Aubree didn't know about this meeting. I just asked her to come chill with me.

I pulled my phone out my pocket and got ready to text her but the front door opened. I turned to see if it was her and it was. She wasn't paying attention but when she finally looked up her eyes grew and she shoved the bag in her hand into her purse. "Um, hey everybody." She have a small smile.

They all greeted her. I pulled her on to my lap and kissed her cheek. "Hey baby."

"Hey...what's all this?" She pointed at everybody.

"You're about to find out." I tried to peek in her purse and see what was in the bag but the way Aubree had it, I couldn't see.

"Can I go use the bathroom really quick? I just need five minutes."

"You got the BG's?" Mijo asked.

"No nigga." She said while getting up. "I'll be back."

Aubree kissed my cheek then left. My phone lit up on the arm of my chair. I grabbed it and it was text from Mijo. I looked up at him and he bucked his eyes. I hate this asshole.

I bit down my lip and thought about her possibly being pregnant. Mijo could've just been seeing shit. I'm sure if Aubree thought she was pregnant she'd come to talk to me. If she is pregnant I won't be surprised. Happy as hell though.

Aubree came back out and sat back on my lap. "Okay, So what's going on?"

"So we've come up with a plan for my dad and I wanted to run it by you." I told her.

"Okay."

"The plan to get to him is to use one of his weaknesses. One thing I know about my father, he could never resist a nice looking woman."

Aubree looked at me with her eyebrows furrowed. "Okay so you're going to hire somebody to sleep with him or something?"

"Not sleep with him, just get his attention. Get him all excited, ya know."

"Chrez, I think we should think this through a little bit. I don't know if this might be a good idea like we thought." Sinko said.

"Man shut up."

"So who are you thinking about using?" Aubree asked.

I looked up at her while chewing on my bottom lip. "I was hoping that you'd be cool with doing this. I know my dad has this weird ass attraction to you."

She laughed. "PLEASE, tell me you're joking."

"Baby, this could really work. All you gotta do is keep his attention, get him distracted long enough so that we can sneak in his crib and then boom it's done."

"Look, I despise your dad, I really do, but I'm not about to put my life in danger. Don't you think he might catch on to this sudden attraction to him? He's going to find that suspicious. Your dad is crazy and I'm not getting put into that. Why would you want me to do this anyway Chris?"

"I don't need any outsider put into this. Aubree, you just gotta seduce the man for a little bit. This could take 10 minutes if you do it right."

She chuckled while standing up. "I'm not doing shit. Find somebody else." After that, she stormed upstairs.

"Told you." Sinko said while shaking his head.

"Wait, why do Aubree hate yall pops so much? And you said he got a thing for her. Damn." Hoody asked.

Dave laughed. "Oh they don't know."

"Nah and we gone keep it that way." I said, while giving him a stern look.

"What we don't know?" Hoody asked again.

Aw shit. I could slap Dave stupid ass right now. He talks too fucking much. "Nothing man, it's nothing."

"Don't seem like it's nothing." Keeis said while eating a chip.

"Just drop it, alright?"

"Just tell them Bro. We all family in here." Dave looked like he was really enjoying this shit. I'm really starting not trust this nigga. He been doing some shady shit since he got here.

"It's a complicated situation that involves me, Aubree and my pops. End of story."

"Nigga." Dave smacked his lips. "Aubree's little sister is our little sister. Her mom, fucked our dad."

My eyes grew and my neck quickly snapped towards him. Bro, what the fuck is his problem. I looked at everybody else and they all looked surprised.

"He lying, right?" Mijo asked.

Exhaling, I ran my hands over my face. "No...he not."

"So little Aubree...what's her name? Uh, Ari. That's yall little sister? I'm trying to make sure I just heard that right." Keeis said.

"Yup." Dave said. "I don't know why this nigga tripping though, Aubree ain't our sister. This shit aint incest. She a bad bitch."

I jumped out of my seat but Hoody grabbed me. "Relax Chrez, it ain't even worth."

"Dave, I don't play about my girl. Keep fucking playing with me and I swear I'ma kill you too motherfucka!"

He laughed. "Over some pussy...damn."

I tried to get out of Hoody grip but he grabbed me tighter. "Chrez chill man. He know what he doing."

"I see why you hate dad so much. You ain't shit just like that nigga." I said.

"And you are? You a joke my guy. How you don't tell your friends the situation you in with ya girl. You lowkey ashamed of Aubree huh?" Dave said.

"Man honestly, that shit wasn't none of our business." Sinko said. "I get why he didn't want to say anything but at the end of day, Aubree ain't his sister and she cool as hell. He obviously love her and she feel the same. You said all that to piss him off Dave, and that shit ain't cool."

"Man shut up with all that sappy shit." Dave waved his hand at Sinko. "He only love her for the moment, the minute a new chick pop up and catch his attention it's over."

"Dave, why you hating bro?" Mijo said. "It's love out here for everybody my nigga."

"He been a hater and you can get yo hating ass out my house. Matter of fact, everybody can bounce." I snatched away from Hoody.

"Damn why we getting kicked out? We love Aubree." Mijo said.

"Cause I don't wanna be bothered by nobody, ya'll ruined my mood for the day."

"Well shit...AUBREE COME ON WE GOTTA BOUNCE CHRIS KICKING US OUT!"

"Not her bitch!"

"You said you ain't wanna be bothered so I was making sure everybody get out."

I walked to the door and opened it. "BOUNCE!"

"Who the fuck you think you is, Martin? Ugly ass nigga." Keeis said while bumping past me. These motherfuckas always trying me.

Everybody walked out the door. Dave stopped and faced me.

"Chrez, you gotta stop being upset all the time man. I ain't mean no harm by what I did." He said.

"Why the fuck you still in my crib?"

He laughed. "I'll hit you up later."

Once he was out the house, I slammed the door shut and locked it. I thought about going upstairs with Aubree but she got an attitude and I ain't trying to deal with that. I thought we was really gone get shit done and planned out. But now we stuck at square one. I don't know how I'm going to handle my dad, but I have to figure something out.

.

2:00am

After trying to fall asleep for the hundredth time, I finally just said forget it. Sitting up in bed, I noticed that Chris still hasn't came up here.

I really don't care. He pissed me off with this whole idea of using me as bait to get to his dad. That wasn't cool and he should've talked to me about that FIRST before he brought it up to his friends.

My stomach growled bringing me out my thoughts. I really haven't ate today so I'm going to go feed my face.

Walking downstairs, loud music filled my ears. None To Me by Take-Off blasted through the lower level of Chris's home, the bass had the damn floor shaking.

I'm guessing Chris's mom didn't come home with Royalty. Ariel was with the twins for the weekend so she's good.

I truly adore how my brothers take care of her, without needing my help. Most 18 years old go crazy dealing with someone as young as her.

I headed into the kitchen and Chris stood at the counter. His cigarette smoke filled the air, making my stomach turn. Going in to the refrigerator, I opened it and looked around for something good.

Settling on a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, I grabbed everything I needed and went to work. The music eventually turned down. I looked over my shoulder at Chris who was staring hard.

"What are you looking at?" I asked.

"What was in that bag earlier?"

"Tampons." I said while shrugging and biting into my sandwich.

"Why you lying?"

"Nobody is lying to you."

"Aubree I know when it's that time of they month, you ain't as crazy like you normally are. And You would've came on, last week."

"The dates switch Chris. Why are you so worried about my period?"

"You know why I'm so worried."

"You think I'm pregnant?"

"As much as I've busted in you, you should be and with quadruplets."

"Baby, I'm on birth control."

"WHAT?!"

"Yes Chris. We've had unprotected sex since the first time. That's something I'm not proud of but do I regret it? No. But yeah, I'm on birth control."

"I asked you two weeks ago to have my baby, you said yeah."

"Chris you were dicking me down when you asked me that. You could ask me for a million dollars while fucking me and I'll say yeah."

He exhaled while shaking his head. "Everybody is just disappointing me today."

"I'm disappointing you? You want me to be whore for your dad so that you can kill him."

"You pushing it now. All I needed was for you to distract him for two seconds so I could do my thing."

"But what if he catches on Chris?! Why aren't you thinking about that? He could stab me, shoot me, whatever. You don't put the woman you love into a situation like that."

Chris sighed.

"Here we go again! Another situation where you only think about YOU. I'm sick of that shit." I pushed my sandwich away and got ready to go upstairs but he grabbed me.

"Okay okay....I'm sorry. You right, I should've thought that through a little more. My bad baby."

"Whatever."

"I'm serious Aubree, I didn't think that through. I was just ready to get this shit handled and over with. I'm ready to be done with all the drama in my life. This shit is too much."

"Yeah."

"I'm sorry baby." He kissed my forehead. "I love you."

"Whatever."

He roughly smacked my ass. "What I tell you about doing that?"

"I love you too ugly."

"Yeah that's what I thought."

I pushed him off. "Nigga you ain't nobody daddy." I started going back upstairs. He was right behind me.

"So you on yo period right now?"

"Yes and can we please stop talking about it."

"Damn man. I need some pussy. Today just been fucked up all around."

"What happened besides this?" I asked while climbing in bed.

"Uuuh." He nervously rubbed the back of his neck. "Dave told everybody about Ariel."

"WHAT?! Why would he do that?"

"I don't know baby. That nigga being doing some shady shit."

"And you trust him enough to come up with a plan to kill your dad with him? Hell no."

"Yeah you right."

"Why do we have to kill your dad? What if we come up with a way to somehow get him put him in jail?"

"Baby, I'm not a snitch."

"Who says you have to snitch? Do you think the day you went to jail it was weird how all of those drugs were in your dad's car or does he always drive around like that?"

Chris rubbed his goatee. "Damn."

"See.....let's set him up. We figure out a way to put double the amount in his car."

"Here's the crazy part, his new car is my name, I could report is stolen or some shit."

"Right! We just got a figure out a way to get his car to put the drugs in there."

"Damn baby! I should've came to you first. If I only could give you some good dick for that good ass plan!" He leaned down and kissed my lips. "Whew that shit is smart....I'm about to run downstairs to get my phone and cut everything off. I'll be right back."

"Remember baby, don't tell Dave!"

"I'm not." He said while walking out the door.

Once he was fully gone, I quickly grabbed my purse and went into the bathroom, shutting and locking the door. Sighing, I pulled out the pregnancy test box.

Ugh, yeah I lied.

I didn't know if I was pregnant yet, so I didn't say anything. Don't judge me.

I pulled the two tests out then did what I had to do.

After I was finished, I exhaled and sat them on the counter. In no time the word PREGNANT flashed across the little screen. I knew it! It's kind of crazy how shocked I am right now with the way we fuck.

Uggggh!

"Baby." Chris called.

"Here I come!" I quickly cleaned myself up then cleaned up my mess. Grabbing the tests, I headed out to the room. Chris was already in bed with the TV.

I climbed in next to him and just stared at him.

He looked at me smiled. "I know you want some of this but you can't none."

I let out a small laugh. "Actually I can."

"I ain't with that freaky shit Aubree."

"I'm not on my period Chris."

"So why you tell me you was?"

"Because I was unsure of something."

"What?"

I took a few deep breaths before placing the tests in his lap. He quickly picked them up to read. "Yooo!"

"Congratulations."

"Yoooo!" He excitedly jumped up. "This for real?"

I nodded. "We're having a baby."

"Ah haaaaa! I knew it! I fucking knew it. Oh my gosh baby you don't know how happy I am right now."

That caused a huge smile to appear on my face.

"Man I can't wait to tell Royalty." He sat the tests down then climbed over to me. His hands held my face and he kissed me. "I love you baby, I love you so much."

"I love you more and we can't tell anyone until I'm out of my first trimester."

"Okay cool. I'm so fucking happy though. I hope it's a boy. I swear Aubree ima be there every step of the way. Whatever you need, I got you. And the minute something ain't feeling right, please tell me cause...." His demeanor changed. I knew his mind shifted to Royalty's mom.

I grabbed his chin and kissed him. "Let's get some rest. We'll finish celebrating in the morning."

He just nodded. I laid down and he came and laid on my chest. We just laid there in silence while my fingers combed through his hair. His arms got tighter around me as he took a deep breath.

Not only do I have to make this easy for me, I have to make it easy for him.

It's going to be a long nine months.
