house he walked into the kitchen smelling the aroma of yams.
“What y’all cooking?” he asked watching Jasmine and Kaylen cook.
“You’ll see when you eat it,” Kaylen said.
“Aye come here let me talk to you for a minute,” Ice said pulling her upstairs to talk.
When they got into the bedroom Kaylen quietly sat on his bed. She didn’t know what to really say at the moment. Last night they had an awkward night and she could tell that the fight with Amber put a strain on their relationship.
“I went over to my mom’s house and she wasn’t having it but I don’t care. They don’t even know you like that to begin with. They’re just very protective over Natasha and always wanted me to be with her,” Ice explained.
“Why didn’t you tell me that from the beginning. I told you your relationship with her was deeper than what you made it seem to be. She is practically your family and they aren’t going to kick her out for me. They’re already judging me and haven’t even met me yet!”
“Are you in a relationship with me or them?” Ice asked but she didn’t answer. “Answer me Kaylen. You don’t wanna be with me anymore?” he asked getting close to her.
“I’m in this with you Ice. Just don’t let it happen again,” she warned him.
“Alright stop being mad with me ‘cause I’m not mad with you,” he pulled her down on the bed and they laid down for a few minutes.
“I just wished that we could all be one big family. You’re close to all of my family and you have a great relationship with my grandma.”
“It’ll happen eventually. It’s just taking them all by shock right now but they see how serious I am about you so don’t worry about it too much alright?”
“Alright,” she said accepting a kiss from him.
Kaylen went back downstairs with Jasmine and finished preparing dinner. They decided to stay in the house for the remainder of the trip. Jasmine and Jared were cool of course. After Jasmine told Jared about what happened he laughed thinking that it was funny. He loved how Jasmine looked out for his sister but at the same time he didn’t want either of them fighting like hood rats.
“Was he mad still?” Jasmine asked.
“No he’s not mad he said his family is though.”
“Oh well that was his messy ass sister’s fault.”
“Forget them they aren’t stopping shit for me.”
“Say that again!” Jasmine praised.
Dinner went by fast. The food was great and it wasn’t an elephant in the room again. Ice let it go and moved on with his relationship. He was trying to enjoy Kaylen before she left to go back home. He appreciated her coming for him though. It sucked that they lived so far away from each other.
Chapter 20
6 months later...
Kaylen was living the life. Her and Ice were better than great. Even though they still lived apart they were making it work. She found out great news the night before and she couldn’t wait to tell Ice when he flew in this afternoon. She knew he was going to take the news well. She took a shower before she got dressed to go to the airport to pick up Ice. As she was getting dressed she had to throw up again. She brushed her teeth and turned off the lights in the bathroom.
“Baby don’t give mommy a hard time,” Kaylen said rubbing her belly.
Lately she was feeling sick and Jasmine was the one who pushed her to take a pregnancy test. Last night she went to the drug store and brought it home. She was nervous to find out the outcome but she was happy when it read that she was pregnant. She finally had the baby that she wanted by a man she couldn’t imagine being without. Not to say that she didn’t want her and Q’s baby. She just wasn’t ready to be anyone’s mother at that time in her life.
The only person that knew about her being pregnant was Jasmine and that was because it was secret until she told Ice. After she was dressed she left her house and drove off to the airport. She hasn’t seen Ice in almost a month since he
