“My bad, now answer my question, McKay? You only ate a snack before we laid down and I know you skipped breakfast this morning. You gon’ have me fucking you up. You’re stressing my baby out enough and now trying to add lack of food to the list, McKay,” I said in a stern tone because I needed her to understand I was serious. I wasn’t concerned about her list beyond the conversation we needed to have so we were officially on the same page when it came to our relationship.

“Yes, I fed Peanut. I couldn’t eat anything this morning. My stomach was upset and I knew I wouldn’t keep anything down.”

I huffed, slightly irritated because I knew it was from her freaking out. I calmed once I caught her face had dropped, understanding it was more from our lack of communication after confessing our feelings for each other. I lifted her chin and demanded her eyes with mine. Without words, I prayed mine told her everything, I was here and not going any fucking where.

I kissed her lips gently just as we got to the bathroom. I walked in, placing her on the counter while I relieved my bladder. She hopped down, making her way over to me, peeking over my shoulder as the stream started. Back was that same giddy smile I’d woke up too. I smirked, turning just enough to see if she was entertained by the show.

“You good back there?”

“Yeah, can I hold it while you pee?” Suddenly, I stopped and just looked at her with my face twisted up.

“This is the second pee fantasy. You got a fetish, M&M?” I asked, unable to start again. She shocked the urge to go out of me.

“Ugh, BK, I swear you stay trying to ruin it. Just let me see something real quick.” She moved to the side, grabbing me in her hand, shaking it twice as if that was the key to start ’em up again.

“Baby he doesn’t work like that. It’s different from when you normally wake him up in your hands. I can’t go like this.”

“BK,” she whined, making me tuck my bottom lip into my mouth, doing my best to conceal my humor.

I leaned into her body. This time, when my mouth attached to hers, I kissed her hard enough that my body relaxed and allowed me to fulfill this insane fantasy for her.

Fool, this damn woman got you wide the fuck open.

McKay’s silly ass broke our kiss once it started and yelped while I shook my head.

“You nasty, McKay Marie.”

She shrugged while I took over so I could finish the process and she made her way to the sink to wash her hands. I handled the rest of my hygiene and refreshed my breath.

“Are you ready to talk?” I asked her through the mirror.

“Yes.”

After she had my robe and her fuzzy house shoes on, we made our way to the front room where the plants were. Today was care day for my babies and McKay knew because I noticed she had even started the potting process for the new one that needed to be replanted. I smirked as I grabbed the water pitcher, making my way over to the water tank while I looked at the clear tarp she had laid out and the pot and dirt on top.

“Damn, what did yo’ ass do, lay down until I closed my eyes then got up?” I asked while she quickly went back to work on the flamingo flowers. They were a surprise I had for her when she came home. It was her housewarming gift. I wanted her to know I wanted her in my space with me.

The plant represented love, passion, commitment, and protection. All of the things I needed McKay to know I was offering, hoping she accepted everything I had to offer.

“No. I took a quick nap but my brain was too busy. Then I got excited about my present. Thank you again, baby. It’s beautiful.”

“You’re welcome, M&M. Now talk to me. What’s been keeping that mind going?” I began walking around the room, watering the others.

She let out a heavy sigh. “Easy stuff first, I don’t have a costume and that part is on me because I should’ve been thinking, but I got stumped. At first I went to individual ideas, then thought this would be one of the first years I’d be able to do a couple costume. And my birthday… With the party technically not the same day as I normally celebrate this year, I don’t know, and well, with the added person stopping me from popping my shit.”

“Two new people because you for damn sure wasn’t popping shit this year even if my baby wasn’t in there.”

She groaned as she rolled her pretty eyes hard.

“I don’t care about all that noise. As far as our costumes, it’s an easy fix and it’s obvious what we’ll be going as. You andPeanut will be the main character as the M&M and I’ll be the tester or handler, I’ll let you decide. Also, don’t worry about your birthday, I’ve got that covered. We might be busy the weekend of the party with getting you settled in here, but I promise to still make it special. Next.”

She looked up at me with a smile as she nodded.

“Okay, getting my stuff here and the rest in storage. I know it’s temporary, so my mind is on determining what’s coming here and what’s going there besides the furniture.”

“Ain’t shit temporary anymore, M&M.”

“Huh?”
