And So It Begins

Chapter 12

“Ring Ring Ring” the phone rang and Sb reached his arm to the dresser eyes still closed and answers without looking at the screen, with sleep in his voice

“Hello”

“Hey Good Morning Handsome” the sexy voice said.

Sb immeately opened his eyes and gently unrapped his other arm from Nicki.

“Hey Sexy” he says.

“What cha doin today?” she says.

“Nothin much why?” he says.

“Well I was thinking that maybe we could go to the shopping or something?” she says.

“Yea Ri that sound good” he said.

Not noticing that Nicki was half awake and could hear but he wasn’t trying to hide anything from her anyway. Nicki did not know if Safaree wanted her to hear this conversation or not so she acted sleep.

“Ri can Nicki come with us?” he asks.

“Of Course, you know she’s ma girl” she says.

“Ok great we’ll meet you on Melrose in about an hour ok” he says.

“Ok honey see ya then” she says.

“OK bye” he says.

“bye” she says.

He hangs up the phone and looks at Nicki, she looks so beautiful still sleeping soundly. Nicki yawns and stretches fluttering her eyes smiling.

“Good morning Faree” she says sweetly.

“Good morning Nic, how did u sleep?” he says.

“Really well actually thanks! How did u sleep?” Nicki says.

“I slept good too” he said putting his arm back around her.

“So what’s up for today?” she said trying to have him tell her about going out.

He turns to her

“Nic you feel like going shopping today?” he says.

She looked at him with excited eyes trying to play like she didn’t know what was up. She jumped up and fell into his arms, his eyes met her eyes, in a trance they could only stare into each other’s eyes. She kissed his cheek at the corner of his lips, he pushed the hair behind her ear and kissed her nose. The air from the cracked window sent a chill up her spine breaking the trance.

“OMG! YESS FAREE I LOVE TO SHOP!!” she says running her fingers through her hair.

“I know Nic that’s why I asked” he says smiling.

“Safaree when will we go?” she asked.

“Get ready now and we will leave as soon as your done, we can grab food from a café out” he says.

She smiles hugs him tight

“Before I go Nic what are you wearing?” he asks concerned so he wouldn’t match her while he was with Rihanna.

“Ummm I’m not sure… Oh wait!” she says. “ I think I’ll wear my printed leggings with that shirt (pointing to the shirt in the half cracked closet) and those my green heels.” She says.

“OOOHH OK” he says.

“Why?” she asks.

“Just wanted to know but I’m going to get dressed now ok I’ll meet you downstairs in 30 minutes” he says.

Sb leaves Nicki’s room and they get dressed he makes sure to avoid he colors from her printed leggings but at the same time he didn’t want to ignore her color completely so her wore a green T, but the color was a darker shade.

 3o minutes later a knock on Nicki’s door, it was Safaree ready to get her.

“Nic let’s go” he says.

“I’m coming pauz” she says.

Nicki comes out looking fabulous as usual and Sb as usual tells her how great she looks, she blushes grabs his arm and they leave for Melrose.

“Ring ring ring” the phone rings. “Hey” she says.

“Where you at?” he asks.

“Safaree I’m at the juicy shop” she says

“Ok Ri see you soon” he says hanging up the phone.

“Ri” Nicki says.

“Oh sorry Nic I forgot to tell you yea were meeting up with RiRi” he says.

She gives him the side eye even though she already knew this and he didn’t know she knew though.

“Hmmm… Ok” Nicki says.

Pulling into a parking spot right in front of the shop that they were lucky to get Rihanna was standing outside waiting for them.

“Hey guys” Rihanna says.

“Hey” Nicki & Sb say back.

Rihanna goes in between them and and put her arms around them both as hey enter the juicy story.

“What have I gotten myself into” Sb thinks to himself. “Two girls to go shopping with, we will be out all day!” he thinks again.

Nicki and Rihanna shop and safaree walks around holding Rihanna’s hand looking at jewelry with her.

“How do you like this?” she asks.

“It’s iight but I like this one better” he says picking up a bracelet with many charms on it.

“Your right” she says putting down what she had in her hand and taking what he picked up instead leaving him with a peck on the lips. Nicki pretends to shop when she’s actually watching Rihanna and Safaree and hadn’t found anything nice for herself  and they were ready to go to the next store.

“Yo Nic what you got?” he said.

She looked up at him confidently saying

“Umm. Nothing so far but it’s cool I’ll just come back later maybe” she says.

“You sure, we can wait. ” he says.

“I’m sure” she says, even though she was actually kind of sad she hadn’t found anything.

They left juicy and went into another couple stores but it was damn near 4 in the afternoon when they realized they hadn’t eaten all day and Nicki was feeling a bit light headed. After the 5^th store they finally stopped at a café on the corner and had a nice lunch and conversation. After lunch hey decided to call it a day on shopping and it was time to go back to their hotel. They said their good byes and Sb reached into his pocket and pulled out a small long box with a bow on it and handed it to Rihanna.

“Before we go I have something for you” he says to her.

“OMG! You didn’t” she said.

She opened the box and while the girls were in the couch store looking at purses he slipped into tiffays and bought her beautiful diamond necklace. She grabbed him by the hem of his shirt and kissed him passionately. Nicki trying not to notice but couldn’t help glancing began to realize that she didn’t like seeing him with other womena dnwhat he was doing now was just not acceptable.

Clearing her throat she said “excuse me you two love birds but it’s time these shoes came off” she said in a voice trying to play off her jealously. They said their final good bys and got into their cars and headed back. Once back at the hotel and in her room Nicki picked up the phone to call Rihanna but at the same time Rihanna was calling Nicki so it didn’t ring she just answered.

“Hey Nicki girl I wanted to check on you cuz you seemed kind of distant today” Rihanna says.

“I’m ok I guess RiRi it’s just…” she began to say.

“Yes” Rihanna said.

“Well can I come over to tell you in person?” Nicki asked.

“Of course baby girl anytime” Rihanna said

“Ok I’ll be right down” Nicki said.

Phone in hand, grabbing her keys and purse heads out the room without any notice to Sb because he will only ask and want to come and she had to handle this on her own. Knocking on Rihanna’s door with too many thoughts going through her mind the door opens…
