Life Daze [Dricki]

This is part two to College Daze. Somebody asked me to do a part two or something and I got this idea.



Nicki and Drake sat around the grill at a Japanese restaurant with their family and friends. They were celebrating Drake's graduation. He should have graduated sooner but he took a semester off to allow Nicki to finish a massage therapy program that she took up at a tech school. They had now been together for almost four years and their three year old son was happy and healthy.

"Mommy. Mommy. Mommy! Maaaaa-"

"Aubrey." She gave the three year old a stern look and he stopped screaming.

"We eat Daddy's cake?" He asked in reference to the cake that Nicki got delivered to the restaurant.

"No, you eat all your food and then we'll have cake."

"Okayyyyyy." He chewed on his gum and Nicki frowned.

"Aubrey." She forced her sons mouth open with her thumb and middle finger and went into his mouth and pulled the gum out. "Drake!"

"Yeah." He turned to her.

"I called you."

"Thought you were talking to Junior."

"Here." She reached over A.J. and grabbed Drake's hand and pushed the gum into his palm. "Stop giving him this shit."

"Nic-" He frowned and looked around for somewhere to put it.

"Mama, I no eat shit." His eyes were big.

"Don't say shit baby." She told him and Drake laughed. She glared at him and he stopped.

"Babe." He smiled.

"Aubrey."

"Why can't he have it?"

"He makes a mess with it once the flavor is gone and I gotta clean it."

"But-"

"Hi. I'm Alicia. I'll be your waitress. Would you like anything to drink?"

"Yeah." Drake answered. "Give me a sprite, my lady a long island and the little guy a-"

"Sprite." A.J. chimed in.

"No." Nicki said. "He'll take an apple juice."

"I want what Daddy has." He pouted.

"But Daddy is a big boy and-"

"When I go potty you say big boy song and dance."

She sighed, "Daddy will just have apple juice."

"Yayyyy!"

"Nicki-" Drake began but Nicki cut him off.

"Shhhh." She turned her attention to the waitress. "Can I ask you something?"

"Sure." She smiled and leaned down. She looked over at Drake and nodded while Nicki whispered in her ear. "Certainly."

"I don't want-"

"Drake, please." She put her hand up and rolled her eyes before looking back at her menu.

"What's the kid eating?" Drake asked.

"I don't know, Aubrey. Ask him." She said without looking up from her menu.

"A.J., what you want to eat?" Drake asked.

"Chicken."

"You always get chicken. Let's try something else."

"No."

"How about fish sticks?"

"No."

"You want ahhh-" He looked over the menu but A.J. screamed out.

"No!" Usually Nicki would have corrected his behavior but she paid it no mind.

"Nic."

"What?"

"Can you stop acting like that and help me out?"

"Oh, I'm sorry." She said sarcastically. "How can I help you?"

He huffed and went back to debating with a three year old about why he should try something new. Drake could tell that Nicki was in some kind of mood but he didn't feel like pressing the issue. Soon the waitress was back with their drinks. He smiled wide when she placed a sprite and kids apple juice in front of him and then a water and kids apple juice in front of his son.

"Thanks babe." He told Nicki.

"No problem." She took a sip of her drink. It was kind of strong. "You must wanna go surfing tonight?" Surfing was code for sex when they were around A.J.

"Why you say that?" He laughed.

"This is kinda strong."

"You don't like it?"

"No, its fine." She smiled and took another sip.

"Is everything ok?" The waitress approached them again.

"Yeah, but before we order I have a question." Drake said.

"Um, hmm."

"How do you feel about surfing? I mean, can strangers get together and go surf? Is it an individual thing or can like three people get together and surf?"

"Um."

"Drake." Nicki rolled her eyes. She didn't know where it came from but for the past couple of weeks he had been hinting at a threesome. "Please, ignore him."

Nicki ordered for her and A.J. and Drake ordered for herself. Their food arrived soon and everybody ate and enjoyed each other.

"You might get to surf tonight babe." Nicki smiled at Drake.

"Word?" He laughed. "That drink that good?"

"No, but you are." She flirted.

"Yo, Drizzy!" Forty called out.

"Sup."

"What time we heading out tonight?"

"Um." He looked at Nicki who had her face screwed up. "After I drop them at the crib."

"Aite."

"Since when -"

"I just graduated, Nic. I'm like the only one of my boys to do that. They wanna celebrate."

"Whatever."

She got up and made her way to the restroom. She looked herself over then began staring at her reflection. Drake came in behind her and locked the door. He walked up to her and put his arms around her.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

"Nothing."

"Stop lying." He turned her to face him and she leaned back on the bathroom sink.

"I just, I. . ." She sighed. "I'm not where I thought I would be at this point in my life. Seeing you graduate today kinda made me feel less than."

"Babe." He went to touch her cheek but she pushed his hand away.

"Don't pacify me, Aubrey."

"Nicki, what do you want?"

"I don't know. The school district is hiring bus drivers. They train you and-"

"That's not what you want."

"But-"

"What do you want, Onika? Your dream."

"Acting? I can't-"

"Stop being quick to say what you can't do. You wanna try it out?"

"I mean yeah but-"

"So, give me a few months to finish this internship and find a job in my field. Once I do you can start working like twice a week or something and focus the rest of your time between A.J. and acting."

"Really?!" She squealed.

"Yeah. I just want you happy." He kissed her lips and she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer to deepen it. She pulled away.

"I love you." She pecked his lips.

"Love you more." He kissed her again and gripped her ass.

"Stop." She giggle as he kissed her neck. She pulled away and held his hands. "Later."

"Come on."

"No." She pointed her finger in his face. "Later."

"Fine." He sighed and they walked out the restroom hand in hand.

After the finished dinner they headed home. Drake carried A.J. up the stairs to their townhome while Nicki opened the door. He went to put him in his bed then returned to find Nicki rummaging through a drawer.

"What you doing?"

"Oh." She pulled out two stacks of money and handed it to him.

"What's this?"

"Graduation gift." She smiled.

"How long-"

"A minute. I didn't know whether to make it a birthday or graduation gift."

"How much is it?"

"I don't know." She laughed. "One stack is like three hundred in ones and the other is a bunch of bills."

"You giving me money to go see bitches."

"You know I don't care about that." She approached them. "As long as you come home and release all that sexual tension on me."

"You know I will." They shared a tongue kiss until he heard Forty outside beeping.

Drake arrived back home around two thirty. He didn't want to get in too late because he wanted Nicki badly. He went to check on A.J but he wasn't in his bed. He sighed at the thought of not being able to have his wife. As he made his way down the hall he heard two women giggling. He knew one was Nicki but the other didn't sound familiar. He pushed open the bedroom door to see both Nicki and the waitress from earlier. They were both in nothing but thongs and bras.

"Hey baby." Nicki got off the bed and walked up to him. "We've been waiting for you."
