Baby Boy - 9

Nicki stood in the middle of her living room looking over the suitcases before her. She deleted the last item off of the list that she had on her phone. Her eyes fell on her wedding ring and she smiled. It had been two days since they'd been married and were now taking the kids to Disney for their honeymoon. It was Nicki's idea, and Safaree couldn't say no. The kids had no idea which made Nicki even more excited. She looked back at her three year old who had once again gotten into one of the suitcases and began trying on clothes.

"Sanaa." She pouted as she undressed her. "Mami, stop. Please." Sanaa stood quietly as her mother folded the shirt and placed it back into the bag. "Come on."

Nicki walked hand in hand with her daughter to the playroom. Because her older siblings were more domineering, and never included her in their games, Sanaa always ended up under her mother. Nicki pushed open the door, that she'd told them not to close, to see Sahara climbing the toy cubby. 

"Get down!" Nicki startled the five year old and she jumped down with wide eyes. "We spent good money on the things in here so that you girls could have a nice play area and you're climbing on it. Why?" 

Sahara looked at the ground before looking to Sade for an answer. When she saw that her sister, too, was looking at the ground she shrugged and looked at it too. 

"I thought we agreed on playing with two toys at a time and putting them up when we were finished." Nicki said as she looked at the toys scattered everywhere. 

"Mommy, Naanie did it." Sade blamed her sister.

"She's been with me for the last thirty minutes. Nice try. Clean this up before your Dad gets back."

"Awww." Sade and Sahara whined. 

"Clean it up before Daddy gets back or you guys won't be going on the trip." She warned. 

"Are we going back to the island, Mommy?" Sade asked.

"No."

"Are we going to see my other mommy?"

"No, but she gets to come home next week and you can see her then." Nicki offered her a smile.

Three years ago Misha had been charged with violating probation, child neglect, and assault. It was then that Safaree received full custody of Sahara, and shortly after the birth of Sanaa that Nicki received guardianship. Nicki wanted to adopt Sahara but Misha made it known that she would be coming out fighting. Legally, that is. Nicki shook the thoughts of her family being torn apart and tuned back in to the girls' questions.

"Then where, Mommy?" Sahara begged.

"The most magical place on earth." Safaree said and all of his girls looked at him with bright eyes and smiles. He felt a sense of pride as he wrapped his arms around the three of his little girls. 

"Hi, Mrs. Samuels." He smiled as he looked up at her. He stood and maneuvered around the children. He kissed the smile on her face.

"Hi, Mr. Samuels." She blushed everytime he called her that. She had just became used to him taking on the role of a doting father and boyfriend, and now he was her husband. "Did you get the shirts?" 

"Yeah. Come here." He grabbed her hand and she followed behind him.

"Clean this room." She called behind herself. "All of you." 

She closed their bedroom door and watched as he pulled shirts out of a black plastic bag. 

"Come here." He waved her over. "You like?" 

She picked up one of the hot pink shirts. The top of it read "I'm going to Disney...", while the bottom read "...but I don't know." Minnie Mouse was centered in the middle with her finger to her lip as a signal for "shhh". Nicki smiled as she turned it over to see 'Sade' and the numbers '02', as if it were the back of a jersey, on the back.

"Oh, my gosh." She smiled as she flipped the other shirts to see the numbers coordinating with the order they were born in. "I love these."

"I got these, too." He reached in the bag and pulled out three bracelets that had Nicki's cell number on them. "In case they get lost." 

"Aw, look who's worrying now." She smiled as she wrapped her arms around his waist. She had been paranoid about the kids getting lost in the park from the moment they'd bought the tickets, and had began freaking him out. He pecked her lips before squeezing her butt.

"How about we make one now so if one gets lost we'll have another to replace it."

"Orrr..." She smiled mischieveously before slapping his chest. "No." 

She tried to pull away from him but he pulled her back quickly as she laughed hard. A hard knock came on the door.

"Ignore it." He said before kissing her.

"Mommy!" Sahara banged on the door.

"What?!" She huffed.

"Daya is sitting at the table having a tea party when she's apposed to be cleaning up." 

"Tell her to get up." Nicki spoke to Sahara but she was locked into a stare with Safaree. 

"I told her that!"

"Tell her I'm gonna whoop her ass if she doesn't help." 

"Okay." Her frustrations were replaced with glee as she skipped away. 

"What were you saying?" She asked.

He locked lips with her as he picked her up. She giggled playfully as he carried her to the other side. They continued to make out before he pulled away and looked at her.

"I love you, baby." He said.

"I know." She laughed.

"I'm proud to call you my wife." 

"You better be." She teased.

"You sure you don't wanna fly down to Miami? You know... Have a normal-"

"This is a normal honeymoon. It's not just us, babe. It's us and them. We all sort of got married." 

"Well, when you put it like that..."

"And when we do go to Miami, I want to get drunk and have nasty sex on the beach... and act like we don't have kids." 

He laughed, "Well, welcome to Schlong Beach. There will be no throwing of frisbees... Just ass and d-"

"Mommy!" Sade knocked on the door. 

"I'm glad they don't just barge in anymore." He whispered.

"Now, if they could manage not snitching." She rolled her eyes before saying, "Yes, Day?"

"Mommy, Sahara thinks she can be the boss, and she keeps pushing me, and calling me stupid."

"I'm the boss, and the next person who tells on someone is gonna meet the boss' right hand man."

"Who?"

"My belt." They listened as she quietly walked away. "Alright, Safaree... Get up."

"No quickie?"

"Does it look like-"

"Mommy." A small voice came from the other side of the door.

Nicki laughed as she shook her head, "Yes, Mami?"

"You gave all that attitude to the other two." He whispered.

"I didn't." She whispered.

"Mommy, they're fighting."

"You think she so innocent." He laughed. "She's the sneakiest one."

"My baby is not sneaky."

"Yeah, okay..." He nodded as he got up and opened the door. "Come on, Lil Ma."

"Mommy, Mommy!" Sade tapped her mother eagerly. "Do I look like a pretty, pretty princess?" 

"You are a pretty, pretty princess." Nicki looked her over. They were currently getting the girls princess makeovers in the Disney castle. All of the girls looked adorable in their princess gowns and makeup. 

"Let's take a picture, Mommy." Sade pulled her down. Nicki adjusted her mouse ears that had a wedding veil on them before snapping a few selfies. 

"You wanna take some, Rah?" Nicki asked as she hopped out of the chair from getting her hair done. It was up in a bun with a small tiara and glitter in her hair.

"No." She shook her head. She hated taking pictures but she looked too cute not to. 

"Come on. Just one." Nicki pouted.

"Okay." She forced a fake smile while Nicki took a picture with her and then she and her sister alone. 

"The young queen is finally ready." Safaree said as he spun the chair around that Sanaa was sat in. 

"My baby." Nicki gushed over her as she picked her up. 

"I'm pretty." She announced. 

"You are." Nicki smiled before turning to one of the stylist. "Can you take our picture?"

"Of course." She smiled. 

"Put on your ears, Safaree." Nicki said in reference to his mouse ears that resembled a groom. 

"Nic-" She cut her eyes at him and he did as told. 

"Okay... On the count of three say, 'Stinky feet'." The stylist said and the girls giggled which caused Nicki and Safaree to do the same. "One, Two, Three!"

"Stinky feet!" They all screamed with wide grins. 

After a magical day filled with sugar, laughs, and countless memories, they were ending the day with Sahara's meltdown. They were on the boat that took them across the lake and to the entrance of the park. Sahara was simply not ready to leave although her father promised that they would be back the next day. 

"Hey." Nicki called to her sternly. She walked to her with hitched breathing. Nicki pulled her onto her lap. "Daddy said we were coming back tomorrow, right?"

She nodded as she had become too overwhelmed to speak.

"Okay. It's..." She looked at her phone. "It's eleven now. By the time we get to our room, and take nice baths, and get into bed it should be maybe twelve thirty. You know what's gonna happen next?"

She sucked in air rapidly before mustering up, "No."

"We're gonna have sweet dreams about all the princesses that we met, and all the candy we ate." She smiled unaware that her husband was watching her with admiration. "Then we're gonna wake up, eat breakfast, and come right back. How does that sound?"

She nodded as she calmed down, "Okay."

"Okay?"

"Yes."

"Give mommy a kiss." Sahara leaned up to kiss her cheek before wrapping her arms around her and laying on her chest. 

After halfway through their third day, the kids were wore out. Between Sade sassing her mother, Sahara's whining, and Sanaa going completely mute, Nicki was over it too. No one argued with Safaree when he put his foot down and said that everyone was going back to the room for a much needed nap. When Nicki opened the door to their suite she was surprised to see Safaree's mother and her boyfriend, Thomas.

"What are you doing here?" Nicki laughed as she gave them hugs and the girls ran behind her doing the same. She followed their eyes to Safaree. 

"We're going to Miami while the girls finish their vacation here."

"Safaree." Nicki whined with a pout. He approached her and wrapped his arms around her. 

"They'll be fine. We need us time."

"Oh, I'm not arguing with that." She laughed as she thought about what brats their children had been. "I don't have any clothes for Miami."

"You don't need any." He whispered. "We're going to the beach." 

I know you guys probably wanted that Miami scene continued but I have a looooong day tomorrow and if I didn't post this then you prob wouldn't have gotten it for a while. I may add it later but don't hold your breath. Lol. I'll let you know if I do add it. Thanks for reading guys.
