Macaiah quickly made his way to his bedroom and locked the door. He sat on his bed thinking about what he saw. He knew it wasn't Safaree because he had left Safaree and his mom in the kitchen making dinner. He knew that only left Jhnené, she was the only other person staying over. He thought about all the times Nicki would talk about girls intimately in her raps, raps he hid and listened to because he wasnt allowed to listened to some of her music.
At dinner he sat quietly eyeing Nicki every now and then and when their eyes made four he'd quickly look away.
Carol: So Jhené, how did you and my daughter meet?
Jhené: we *looks at Nicki*.. we met at a get together her friends were having. Safaree had brought me along with him
Carol looked at Safaree then Nicki and back to Jhené
Carol: oh, well how did you and Safaree meet?
Jhené: we lived next door to each other on the same apartment complex. We'd see each other in the mornings when we went to the gym and on other occasions
Carol: that's how you two became friends?
Jhené: yes ma'am
Nicki: Mom stop with the Q & A please you're making her uncomfortable
Carol: I'm just getting to know about her Onika, am I making you uncomfortable dear?
Jhené: *smiles* No ma'am
Carol: see
Nicki rolled her eyes.
Caiah: may I be excused please?
Carol looked and saw he had finished most his food so she allowed him to leave the table telling him before he left to make sure he went and took his bath.
When they were all finished eating Nicki and Jhené cleared the table while Safaree and Carol went to talk in the living room.
Jhené: *closes dishwasher* think you need to have a talk with your brother
Nicki: his ass shouldnt have been snooping around in the first place but I will
:Jhené: I doubt he was snooping more like looking to spend some time with his favorite and only famous big sis.
Nicki: *smiles* truuue
She said backing Jhené against the counter
Jhené: Nicki... what are you doing?
Nicki: what does it look like Im doing? Im about o kiss you
Jhené: haven't we gotten caught one time too many already and your mom and Safaree are in the other room
Nicki: ugh! Fine *folds arms and pouts*
Jhené: awwe bookie dont worry you'll get what you want soon and *whispers in her ear* it'll be worth the wait I promise... Now let's go up and you can go have a talk with the munchkin
When she got to got to Macaiah's room he was watching TV
Nicki: Hey
Caiah: Hey sis
Nicki: can I talk to you for I bit?
Caiah: sure
She went and sat on his bed and he turned the TV off
Nicki: about what you saw earlier I-
Caiah: Nicki I've seen two girls kiss before
Nicki: *shocked face* Macaiah Maraj where the-
Caiah: at school and stop freaking out I mean you talk about other girls in a lot of your raps
Nicki: raps you arent suppose to be listening to
Caiah: but I listen to them anyway. all my frineds do
He said with a little attitude
Nicki: oh?!
Caiah: besides now when kids at school say "your sister is a freak" I can say " and her girlfriend cuter than Angie Jolie" then walk away
Nicki: ok you know what *gently pushes him down on the bed, pulls cover over his head and and stacks two pillows on top of him* Shower and go to bed. You are too much..
After she left her brother's room she went to Jhené's. On opening the door she heard Carol clear her throat.
Nicki: hey, where's Safaree? I was just getting Jhené so we could watch a movie together
Carol: He's downstairs and I wont be joining you all for that movie however, I would like to speak to you before you go downstairs
Nicki: O..Okay *smiles* I'll be there in a few
As she walked into Jhené's room she walked out the bathroom with a yellow towel wrapped around her and her hair wet.
Nicki: *bites bottom lip gently and with a sly smile * looks like I'm right on time
Jhené: *smiles* dont start
Nicki: way to shut me down
Jhené: *giggles* how did it go with Macaiah
Nicki: well I will have you know that he claims to have seen two girls kiss before and says the next time kids at school tell him his sister is a freak he's gonna tell them that her girlfriend is cuter then Angie Jolie
Jhené: burst into giggles* he did not!!
Nicki: Oh girl he did
Jhené: he is too much
NIcki: tell me about it... anyway I was thinking we could watch a movie together so Ima shower and meet you downstairs. You can chill with Faree till I come.Ohh nd my mom wants to speak to me so Ima be a bit longer
Jhené: wait.. Macaiah didnt-
Nicki: No, no and he wont trust me
Jhené: ok... well go see what mama wants then
Nicki: son I feel like a teenager in my own home
She said as she walked out the door.
*****
*knocks door*
Nicki: mom, may I come in?
Carol: yes you may baby
Carol was in bed doing some light reading. When Nicki sat on the bed she put her book marker back in and closed the book.
Nicki: what's up?
Carol: you tell me Onika
Nicki: Well there's nothing much going on with me. Just been doing some recording and interviews. The usual and I have a show coming up
Carol: not exactly the answer I was looking for. I had a little talk with Safaree about the whole apartment situation and a few other things
Nicki: mom I-
Carol: it's ok, you dont owe me an explanation. What I am curious about is your beautiful friend down the hall. Is there something going on between you two?
Nicki: Oh my G- What did Safaree say to you
Carol: so there is something going on?
Nicki: she's just a friend mom
Carol: Onika just friends is like you relationship with Lauren or Candice you two sat at that dinner table looking across at each other like you each wanted the other on the plates infront of you instead of my lasagna .
Nicki: MOM!! *shocked face* I am not about to have this conversation with you right
She got up to leave out the room
Carol: sweetie that man downstairs adores you. He would do anything to please you. I dont see why you feel the need to do this
Nicki: I know he does and he doesnt have a problem with this. We have an agreement!
Carol" and did you once stop and think that maybe he agreed to this because he doesnt want to lose you
Nicki: oh is that what he told you? cause he damn sure seemed happy when he was saying this could be a win situation for him. What he couldnt hold his own so he sent you to do his dirty work
Carol: you will watch your language when you speak to me! an Safaree didnt ask me to speak to you about this.! I did it because-
Nicki: because what?! you dont think its right?! Its MY choice, Im an adult its my mistake to make and this is my house!!
She yelled back.
Carol: *raises hands in defeat* Ok Onika *shakes head*
Nicki: Mom I-
Carol: Dont... I'd like to go to bed now if thats not too much to ask
Nicki: Mom..
Carol: Onika just leave me be.. please
As she walked slowly down the hallway towards her bedroom Jhené saw her and asked if she was ok.
Nicki: Just fine!
She responded sarcastically
Nicki: meet you downstairs in a few k
Jhené: ok
Nicki took a hot long shower then pulled on a fitted t shirt and a Victoria's secret shorts. When she got downstairs she found Jhené alone
Nicki: where's Faree
Jhené: said we should go ahead and start without him. How'd it go with your mom?
Nicki: bad! *sigh* she knows
Jhené: knows what?
Nicki: about us
Jhené: How?!
Nicki: she says she saw the way we were looking at each other.
Jhené: I mean yeah we did exchange some intense stares but.. thats all
Nicki: Né its my mother she's psychic
Jhené: what'd she say?
Nicki: I really .. I dont wanna think about it right now. She was just being-
Jhené: you mother. Nicki you need to make things right with her
Nicki: I plan to
Jhené: ok so go
Nicki: Now? trust me she does not wanna speak to me right now
Jhené: yes now and if she doesnt respond just tell her what you have to say
Nicki: what about our movie time
Jhené: your mom is more important
*****
She knocked on Carol's bedroom door before opening it and looking in
Nicki: May I?
Carol: It's your house Onika do as you please
She was still reading. Nicki walked over to the bed and sat down
Nicki: Mom Im sorry. I was disrespectful and I really didnt mean to go off on you like that I know you're just looking out for me. I appreciate that. I would like to ask though, I know you may not agree with what is going on with Jhené, Safaree and I, but I ask that you respect my choices please and if this all blows up in my face then you have all the right to say I told you so..
She waited for Carol to say something but nothing came
Nicki: So.. you're not talking to me now?...... *sigh* I'll leave you now. I love you. Good night ma.
Carol: good night
She closed the door behind her and stood outside it for a few seconds before making her way down the stairs.
***NEXT DAY***
Candi: I bet her ass still asleep
She said as Lauren opened the front door with her key
Lauren: you know damn well her ass still asleep she has a man and a woman to give her afreaking workout in the nights
Candi: she wouldnt! Not with Mama C and Caiah in the house
Lauren: her freaky ass prolly.. No., Nope forget it
Lauren said they walked into the kitchen each holding a bottle of GTvodka
Carol: Morning ladies
Both: Good morning mom
They each gave her a hug. She was making coffee
Carol: isnt it a bit too early to be drinking that?
Candi: oh we dont plan to drink it right now. Its for later
Carol: *smiles* would you girls like some coffee?

Carol: I believe that's it.
Candi: they wont be home anytime soon
Carol finished her coffee washed the cup and turned it down. Just as she did there was a knock at the front door
Carol: that must be the driver
Candi and Lauren looked at each other and followed her out to the living room. It was then that they noticed her luggage beside the couch, her purse resting neatly on top.
Candi: we thought you were leaving on Tuesday?
Carol: decided to cut my trip short
Lauren: what about Caiah
Carol: he'll come back on Tuesday as planned. Safaree is flying up with him
The girls looked at each other
Carol: ok ladies take care of yourselves and hope to see you soon
Candi: Something went down in this house last night
Lauren: tell me about it
As the front door closed they both made their way up to Nicki's room and begab knocking on the door. After a few minutes they heard her yell " Macaiah leave me alone" so Candi yelled back
Candi: it's not Caiah he's not here!
A few more minutes passed and the door opened.
Nicki: why are yall at my door yelling so early in the morning and where is Macaiah?
Candi: FYI its after 12 and he's out with Safaree. They've been out since 8 this morning. Took the T Rex out.

Chapter 14 -> Unexpected
I really didnt like this chapter. Thought about posting tomorrow instead but I said I would tonight so here you go...
She just stood there for a few minutes after Safaree walked out and took some deep breaths, before walking towards the kitchen to head out back to the others. She found Candi in the kitchen getting more liquor to bring out back to their friends.
She just stood there for a few minutes after Safaree walked out and took some deep breaths, before walking towards the kitchen to head out back to the others. She found Candi in the kitchen getting more liquor to bring out back to their friends.
Candi: what's up with you?
She stopped what she was doing and leaned on the counter looking at Nicki
Nicki: Safaree, he walked in on Jhené and I talking
Candi: oooohh... What did he say?
Nicki: Nothing. He heard everything then just left. Candi what am i doing?
Candice walked over and hugged her friend
Candi: *sigh* you're acting on your feelings babe. You've never been one not to and even he knows that. Go home and talk to him.
Nicki: *deep sigh* Ok. May I borrow your car?
Candi: Oh he left you here like that?! Uh uh!.... Keys are in my purse in the living room
Nicki: Thanks. Call you later
Candi: Ok
Nicki left and Candi went back out to the others
************
When Nicki got home Safaree wasnt there. She searched the whole house and didnt find him. However, her car had been parked in the garage and his was gone. She called his phone several times but he didnt pick up so she left him voice messages. She went to her room for a pillow and her blanket then came back and got comfy on the couch watching TV and waiting for him to come home.
It was a few minutes after 8 in the am when he walked in and found her asleep on the couch. He turned the tv off then went up to go shower. After his shower he got dressed and went back down to make breakfast. He got to the entrance of the living room and saw her, hands over her eyes as she took a deep breath then turn her head and look at him. He didnt flip out on him they just stayed looking each other in the eyes until he looked away. He gently shook his head and walked to the kitchen. She called to him but all he said was "Good morning Nicki" and continued to the kitchen.She got up and went after him. She got into the kitchen and stood in the doorway looking at him.
Nicki: Safaree can we talk? please?
SB: Sure after you shower and we eat
He responded without looking over at her.
Nicki: OK
Nicki said caught off-guard by his calm disposition. She slowly turned on her heels and went to have her shower. After her shower she pulled on one of Safaree's T-shirts from her closet and went back downstairs to teh kitchen where he was making breakfast. She sat at the counter and he place a plate infront of her and then made her a cup of tea. Her giving her her breakfast he made himself a plate and sat. They ate in silence. When they were done eating he cleared the dishes and put them in the dishwasher then turned around to her
SB: you wanted to talk
Nicki: umm yeah... Can we go sit in the living room?
SB: yeah sure
They walked out the kitchen and Safaree took a seat in one of the smaller couches, Nicki sat on the largets one and after several deep breaths began talking
Nicki: I dont even know where to begin.. Safaree you know I love you. I dont want you to feel like you're losing me to Jhené because you're not its just.. I can't just ignore my feelings I-
SB: Wow Nicki *chuckles* so hold a minute.. If this was another guy I would be expected to accept the fact that you can't just ignore your feelings?
Nicki: NO! Faree it's not another guy. We wouldnt even been having this conversation if it was another guy because I have the only guy that I want and that's you. I just with her its different maybe it's because this is something I've always wanted to try or maybe it's just her I dont know I really dont get where these feelings are coming from but I want the chance to explore them. Thats why I wanted to talk to you.
SB: Oh so you want my permission to fuck somebody else what one time, two, ten? and then what Nicki? You already been doing shit with her behind my back so why you asking for my permission now anyway?
Nicki: It was one kiss and I was honest enough to tell you about it
SB: yeah days after.
Nicki: Faree... please can you just-
SB: You know what.. do whatever you want. You dont have to ask for my permission
With that he got up leaving her in the living room and head for the front door. She bit in her bottom lip and looked up at teh ceiling as the tears ran down her cheeks.
******
Rex: Are you fucking serious??
SB: as serious as i'll ever be
Vince: but why you trippin' though dude? you been knew Nic was freak from day 1.
Rex: and I mean she been turning women down like washed cups dont you think that there must be something different why she's so caught up with this chick?
Vince: and besides you are the reason they met?
SB: so you're saying this is my fault?
Vince: No. I'm saying.. well yeah that's what I'm saying but come on dude. I'd give anything for Lauren to wanna hook up with a girl
Rex and SB gave him a "where the fuck have you been" look
Vince: what?? No fuckin way
Rex and Safaree laughed.
Rex: anyway man back to you *looks at SB* just...We cant make your decision for you but really think about this before you make one.
SB: aight man.. Thanks for the talk
Vince: yall aint shit how you even know bout Lauren?
They both laughed again.
SB: Ima go get some more beers
******
Jhené: I told you I didnt wanna get between you two. Maybe it's best if we just end this whole friendship right now
She was on teh phone with Nicki and just as she had finished her sentence there was knock at her door.
Jhené: Nicki I have to go there's someone at the door. I'll call you back when whomever it is leaves ok
She hung up and went to answer the door. She was surprise to see him standing on the other side and a bit hesitant to let him in but she did.
Jhené: Can I offer you something to drink?
She asked nervously
SB: No.. but can we talk. please?
Jhené: umm sure

It was 10 minutes to seven when his car pulled up. Nicki was making spaghetti for dinner. She heard the front door oopen and close but didnt pay it any mind. She figured he was just going to ignore her and go to his room since he was upset. So she went about getting a plate and something to drink from the refrigerator. She was clad only in thongs a fitted t-shirt and her bed slippers. Her hair was up in a messy bun and she had Whitney on real low.
He walked in with his guest and closed the front door. They looked at each other
SB: smells like spaghetti, go ahead. Ima go up for a bit
He gave her a small smile and she smiled back. She walked to the living room and put her purse on the coffee table and head towards the kitchen. Nicki didnt hear her enter. She stood in the doorway a few minutes watching her by the stove plating her food. She walked up behind her and slowly placed her hands on her waist. Nicki knew it wasnt Safaree because of teh size of the pair of hands. She stopped what she was doing and parted her lips
Nicki: what are you doing?
Jhené kissed the back of her neck.
Jhené: I thought this is what you wanted?
Nicki pulled away and walked to the counter with her plate.
Nicki: didnt you just suggest that we end this? *rolls eyes* how'd you get in anyway?
Jhené: I know what I said Nicki but what did you expect I felt like I was ruining your relationship with Safaree
Nicki: and I told you you weren't all I needed was for you to give me time to sort it out
Jhené: but.. If you didnt work it out how.. why did?
Nicki: I told you earlier what happened didnt I. Look... *sigh* I need some time to really think about this and then we'll see what happens
Jhené: Oh.. ok. I guess I'll go then. I'll just call Safaree back down to bring me home
She said in a small voice and walked out the kitchen leaving Nicki with a confused look on her face. When she got to the living room Safaree was just coming down the stairs
Jhené: can you drop me home please
She said opening the front door and walking out to Safaree's car. Nicki walked in with her plate just seconds after and stopped looking at him.
SB: what happened?
Nicki: excuse me?
She responded with wide eyes.
SB: what happened with you and Jhené? She just asked me to take her home
Nicki: oh so now you're a big Jhené fan.. aren't you the one who doesnt want me seeing her. You curse me out about wanting to be with her then you bring her here all cool and ask me a dumb ass question like that. Since when did you two become big friends again? Huh? You assumed I was gon just go by what you said and not act on my feelings so you thought oh cool lemme bring her over?
SB: will you stop!! I brought her here for you
Nicki: *tilts head to the side* what?!
SB: I thought about what you asked and I dont see why not. I know if it wasnt something you really wanted to try you wouldnt have come to me and talk to me, ask my permission. Besides I knew I was getting with a freak when I started and I am the reason yall met so what the heck. Im cool with you seeing her. I spoke to her earlier and she's really into you, A LOT! so I thought I'd surprise you and bring her over.
Nicki: you're ok with it??
she asked again to be sure.
SB: yup! and by the looks of it you have some making up to do so I'd suggest you put that plate down and go get her before she starts walking or calls a cab
Nicki: I fucking hate you!!
SB: I love you too
When Nicki got outside Jhené was walking down her long driveway towards the gate. Nicki ran after her
Nicki: Né
She called but she didnt turn around. She caught up to her and pulled at her arm causing her to turned around. They stood looking at each other
Nicki: he explained.. I didnt know he came by and spoke to you the last I spoke to him was before he left. Im sorry for my reaction come back inside.. please
Jhené: you dodnt ahve to apologise but we do need to get you inside.. You do remember ur only wearing a thong, t-shirt and soem pink bears on your feet right.. You dod what'd ahppen if the paps got a hold of this image.
She took off her jacket and gave it to Nicki and they head back to the house.

Nicki got out of bed and went in search of Safaree. She found him in his old room sitting on the bed typing away on his phone. He quickly finished up and put the phone down as she walked over to him. She straddled his lap and kissed him. When she broke the kiss he spoke
SB: Baby I'm not telling you what she has planned
She crossed her arms on her chest and pouted he chuckled
SB: Im not gonna ruin the surprise
Nicki: whatever
She was about to get up when he held on to her waist
SB: uh uh! Not so fast.. I was thinking we could-
His phone rang interrupting his sentence and he answered it quickly. It was a gospel ringtone so they both knew who was calling
SB: hey mom
Carol: Safaree why isnt Onika answering her phone?
SB: she isnt by her phone at the moment. Hold a min
He handed her the phone
Nicki: Hi mom
Carol: hey baby, I called you three times
Nicki: sorry phones in my room we're in another room. But what's up? is something wrong?
Carol: No there's nothing wrong. Just reminding you that Caiah and I are coming down this weekend
Nicki: Oh.. I
Carol: forgot??
Nicki: yeah..
Carol: You promised Onika.. Im not up to dealing with your brother and his tears and complaining all weekend
Nicki: I know mom.. Its cool. The driver will be at the airport to pick you up
Carol: ok.. I love you. Take care and see you soon
Nicki: Love you too mom
She hung up
SB: what happened?
Nicki: Caiah and mom.. Saturday
SB: Ooh! I forgot about that
Nicki: looks like my surprise is gonna have to be rescheduled.
***************
Jhené was very understanding about Nicki's mom and brother visiting and rescheduled for the next weekend however, Nicki asked her to stay the weekend at her place so she could get to know her mom and brother, she told them Jhené was a very good friend. It was all going well until that same Saturday night Caiah walked in on her and Jhené kissing in her home theater...

She stood in the doorway a few minutes watching her by the stove plating her food. She walked up behind her and slowly placed her hands on her waist. Nicki knew it wasnt Safaree because of teh size of the pair of hands. She stopped what she was doing and parted her lips
Nicki: what are you doing?
Jhené kissed the back of her neck.
Jhené: I thought this is what you wanted?
Nicki pulled away and walked to the counter with her plate.
Nicki: didnt you just suggest that we end this? *rolls eyes* how'd you get in anyway?
Jhené: I know what I said Nicki but what did you expect I felt like I was ruining your relationship with Safaree
Nicki: and I told you you weren't all I needed was for you to give me time to sort it out
Jhené: but.. If you didnt work it out how.. why did?
Nicki: I told you earlier what happened didnt I. Look... *sigh* I need some time to really think about this and then we'll see what happens
Jhené: Oh.. ok. I guess I'll go then. I'll just call Safaree back down to bring me home
She said in a small voice and walked out the kitchen leaving Nicki with a confused look on her face. When she got to the living room Safaree was just coming down the stairs
Jhené: can you drop me home please
She said opening the front door and walking out to Safaree's car. Nicki walked in with her plate just seconds after and stopped looking at him.
SB: what happened?
Nicki: excuse me?
She responded with wide eyes.
SB: what happened with you and Jhené? She just asked me to take her home
Nicki: oh so now you're a big Jhené fan.. aren't you the one who doesnt want me seeing her. You curse me out about wanting to be with her then you bring her here all cool and ask me a dumb ass question like that. Since when did you two become big friends again? Huh? You assumed I was gon just go by what you said and not act on my feelings so you thought oh cool lemme bring her over?
SB: will you stop!! I brought her here for you
Nicki: *tilts head to the side* what?!
SB: I thought about what you asked and I dont see why not. I know if it wasnt something you really wanted to try you wouldnt have come to me and talk to me, ask my permission. Besides I knew I was getting with a freak when I started and I am the reason yall met so what the heck. Im cool with you seeing her. I spoke to her earlier and she's really into you, A LOT! so I thought I'd surprise you and bring her over.
Nicki: you're ok with it??
she asked again to be sure.
SB: yup! and by the looks of it you have some making up to do so I'd suggest you put that plate down and go get her before she starts walking or calls a cab
Nicki: I fucking hate you!!
SB: I love you too
When Nicki got outside Jhené was walking down her long driveway towards the gate. Nicki ran after her
Nicki: Né
She called but she didnt turn around. She caught up to her and pulled at her arm causing her to turned around. They stood looking at each other
Nicki: he explained.. I didnt know he came by and spoke to you the last I spoke to him was before he left. Im sorry for my reaction come back inside.. please
Jhené: you dodnt ahve to apologise but we do need to get you inside.. You do remember ur only wearing a thong, t-shirt and soem pink bears on your feet right.. You dod what'd ahppen if the paps got a hold of this image.
She took off her jacket and gave it to Nicki and they head back to the house.

Nicki got out of bed and went in search of Safaree. She found him in his old room sitting on the bed typing away on his phone. He quickly finished up and put the phone down as she walked over to him. She straddled his lap and kissed him. When she broke the kiss he spoke
SB: Baby I'm not telling you what she has planned
She crossed her arms on her chest and pouted he chuckled
SB: Im not gonna ruin the surprise
Nicki: whatever
She was about to get up when he held on to her waist
SB: uh uh! Not so fast.. I was thinking we could-
His phone rang interrupting his sentence and he answered it quickly. It was a gospel ringtone so they both knew who was calling
SB: hey mom
Carol: Safaree why isnt Onika answering her phone?
SB: she isnt by her phone at the moment. Hold a min
He handed her the phone
Nicki: Hi mom
Carol: hey baby, I called you three times
Nicki: sorry phones in my room we're in another room. But what's up? is something wrong?
Carol: No there's nothing wrong. Just reminding you that Caiah and I are coming down this weekend
Nicki: Oh.. I
Carol: forgot??
Nicki: yeah..
Carol: You promised Onika.. Im not up to dealing with your brother and his tears and complaining all weekend
Nicki: I know mom.. Its cool. The driver will be at the airport to pick you up
Carol: ok.. I love you. Take care and see you soon
Nicki: Love you too mom
She hung up
SB: what happened?
Nicki: Caiah and mom.. Saturday
SB: Ooh! I forgot about that
Nicki: looks like my surprise is gonna have to be rescheduled.
***************
Jhené was very understanding about Nicki's mom and brother visiting and rescheduled for the next weekend however, Nicki asked her to stay the weekend at her place so she could get to know her mom and brother, she told them Jhené was a very good friend. It was all going well until that same Saturday night Caiah walked in on her and Jhené kissing in her home theater...
