“Hay you made it”
“Yeah the directions where easy enough you can practically see Maggie and Razor’s from here”
“Come on” he takes me up the stairs and opens the front screen door the smell of the Lasagna cooking has my tummy rumbling and my mouth watering
“Nice place” I tell him as I look around
“Thanks”
“Um Colt where's your bathroom”
“Oh, you can use the one just down the hall to the left”
“Thanks” I waddle down the hall and fine the bathroom, it's beautiful light brown subway tiles and cream Travertine tiles makes it look huge, everything is new and it has an amazing spa bath I can just imagine myself laying in there with a few candles loads of bubbles and a glass of wine
“Niya you ok in there” I'm pulled out of my daydream and back to reality
“Yeah I'm fine I'll be out in a minute”
“Do you want a drink or something”
“Um no I'm good”
“Ok”
Come on girl you can do this stick to the plan, talk, eat, leave and that's it. I open the door and make my way to the kitchen, it’s a huge country style kitchen with all new appliances dark wood cabinets granite work tops and cream and browns like the bathroom
“Wow Colt this place is nice, I love your tub”
“You can use it any time you want” he tells me smiling
“Thanks, so what do you want to talk about” I ignore his comment about the tub
“I thought we could have dinner first you hungry”
“Always” I whisper
“Ok sit down”
The smell is amazing my mouth watering with anticipation and the baby kicking with excitement food always gets me excited lately. As he places it in front of me it smells even better
“You baked this?” I ask him looking a bit surprised
“Yes, with my own two hands” he lifts his hands up smiling (god I love his smile)
“You did?”
“Yes, just eat do you want a drink” a milk please
“Milk”
“Yeah this kid loves milk”
“Ok” he gets me a large glass of milk
“Here you go” he places it in front of me, my first bite has me moaning and Colt stops to look at me smiling
“Wow Colt this is really good”
“Thanks mom told me how to cook it”
“Well you done well” we sit in silence the rest of the meal glancing at each other every now and then but I keep my head down really not sure what to say or even where to look
“Do you want any desert I have Chocolate cake”
“Chocolate cake”
“Yep triple Choc”
“Did you bake it?” he shakes his head no
“Nah Grandma did”
“Well I'll have a big piece than, I wouldn't want to offend her by not having a piece” he smiles
“No, we wouldn't want to do that, that women can get downright abusive when she gets pissed off” and I watch as he rubs his face smiling
“What do you mean by that?” I ask curious
“Let’s just say after you left I lost my way and Grandma showed me the right path”
“The right path” he chuckles
“Yeah with her palm and my face” I frown at him
“She hit you” he looks at me his face serious
“Yeah baby but it was something I needed”
“Colt” he shakes his head at me. He cuts us both two huge pieces of Chocolate cake and comes and sits next to me instead of across from me and everything in me wants to lean into him like I always did when we sat together but I don't. I moan as I take the first bite and Colt smiles again
“Good” I nod with a mouthful of Chocolaty goodness. When I finish the last bite, I feel a bit sad it's all gone
“Did you like” Colt asks me and I nod
“That was delicious Colt thank your Grandma for me”
“I will Niya” my heart skips a beat because I feel disappointed he didn't call me baby, I watch as he loads the dishwasher
“Do you want any help?”
“I got it” I stand up and have a look around
“So, who decorated?” I ask
“Mom and Grandma helped but I picked most of the stuff”
“Oh yeah it's really nice you have good taste”
“Thanks”
“So, Colt why am I here” I ask as he comes into the sitting room
“Come on I want to show you something” he takes my hand and we walk back down the hallway and he stops on the third door
“What's in there?”
“Open it and see” I freeze the last door I opened had Colt and Star naked in bed and I stop my heart pounding
“Colt”
“Niya just open it” I slowly turn the handle and push the door open and freeze. (Oh my god) I walk in and look around not saying a word a tear slides down my cheek, I run my hands over the beautiful white cot
“Is this for when the baby stays here” I turn and look at him, he walks in and grabs my hands and brings them to his lips
