Walking into the house with Antonio we joked about some shit that happened at practice.

"Man you put that boy on his ass with that takedown. Antonio said as we dropped our bags by the door.

"He was trying to show out and I wasn't having it so just before he made that touch down I put him on his ass". I said laughing as we walked into the living room.

Looking over to the couch I see Novalee and Tyrese knocked out snoring and all.

"She still the same always loud as shit when she sleep". Antonio said causing us to laugh lowly.

"Don't do her". I said sitting at the foot of the couch watching them.

"While you do this weird shit I'm about to take a shower and tap out". He said walking off to the back of the house.

Grabbing her foot I start tickling it and she rolled over falling off the couch with a groan.

"What the heck". She said causing me to give her a confused look.

"When the fuck have you ever said heck you always cussing".I said causing her to look up and over at me.

"I'm sorry what". She asked rubbing her eyes as I helped her up.

"I said you always cussing but now you saying shit like heck what the fuck is up with that". I ask and she looks at me stunned.

"I don't curse". She said bending down to pick up Tyrese and I went and stood behind her grabbing her waist.

"Excuse me that's inappropriate". She said standing up and moving to the side.

"My bad I ain't mean no disrespect". I said backing up.

She started walking to the back and I followed her to Tyrese's room and watched as she laid him down and rubbed his head.

As I went to turn and leave she grabbed her head in pain and dropped down to the floor bringing her knees to her chest as I rushed over to her.

"Aye you good". I ask and she doesn't reply.

"Aye you good". I ask her again and this time she shakes her head no as I brought her into me holding her.

I can't believe he woke me up like that and then stood behind me like that.

Placing Tyrese down into his crib I smile down at him before rubbing his head when I felt a pain in my head.

Laying down on the bed I rub my stomach looking down with a smile as someone walks into the room.

"What my son been doing". The man asked with his back towards me.

"Good he's been kicking all day I guess he knows when daddy comes home". I said trying to look at his face but he kept walking around the room with his back towards me.

"Baby". I ask and he starts to turn around.

"Aye you good". I heard a voice say and I nod my head as I feel myself being pulled into their hold.

"What happened". I asked confused as I looked around and he just stared at me.

"You don't remember what just happened". He asked with his eyebrows scrunched up.

"No". I said as he stood up before helping me stand up.

"Your head started hurting and you just passed out". He said leading me to a room.

"Do you mind getting my bags out of the car". I ask as he helping me onto the bed and took off my shoes.

"Yea I got you Lil bit but where your keys at". He said as I got under the cover.

"They're on the table by the door". I said and he nodded walking out.

After a few minutes I hear the door close and I sit up waiting for him to come into the room. Once he came in and he placed my bags down and I got up from the bed.

"I'm about to go take a shower and call it a night". He said and I nodded as I looked through my bag for my pills.

"Okay goodnight and thank you". I said smiling up at him.

"Goodnight and it's no problem". He said smiling back before walking out.

Finding my pill bottle I take one out before going into the bathroom and popping it in my mouth as I cut in the tap water and bring some into my mouth with my hand.

Cutting the water off I walk over to the shower and cut it on before going to get my night clothes.

After finding what I was going to wear I walk back In and get into the shower.

Stepping out I dry off and walk out cutting the light off on my way out.

Getting into bed I lay down and close my eyes.

I think I'm going to like it here...
