Hey guys, I'm sorry it took me so long to update. I had a plan in my mind that I was going to wait till I got on break to continue writing. So I'm on break now but guess what? I now have to read two books and half of another all before I go back to school in two weeks, isn't that exiting? Lol, no it's not. So now even though I'm on break I won't even be on here as much as I would like. Sorry but I'll try to at least write little by little. I hope this satisfies you until the next one, I don't know when that will be. Xoxo I love you guys.
"Baby you sure you're going to be okay with Kayla and me working together?" Corbin asked Monique later that night.
Monique was in the bathroom brushing her teeth while Corbin was in the bedroom watching TV on the bed. He heard the water turn off in the bathroom and he turned his head to his wife's direction.
"I just have one question. Out of all the people in the world, you choose her?" Monique asked.
She walked over to the bed and sat down next to Corbin.
"Kayla is really good at what she does baby. And besides she told me I wouldn't have to pay her the usual of what she charges." Corbin explained.
"And why is that?" Monique asked.
"I don't know. Look, this is strictly business baby, I swear." Corbin kissed Monique on the lips and smiled.
The next morning Monique woke up to hear the water running in the bathroom. She sat up in her bed and rubbed her eyes. Corbin walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He smiled when he saw Monique looking at him.
"Good morning." He said.
Monique smiled and before she got out of the bed. She stood in front of Corbin and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"What are you doing up so early?" she asked.
"Kayla's coming over." He replied.
Monique's smile faded and she released her arms from her husband's neck.
"Oh, I should've known." She responded.
"Mo, it is not a big deal. I don't know why you're acting that way." Corbin responded.
"If Dwayne had to dress me, how would you feel?" Monique waited for a response. She smiled when she didn't hear one.
"I'm going to go make breakfast." She said before walking downstairs.
Later that day, Lauren came over to visit Monique. They had a good hour to spend before the two met up with Ashley and Keke to go shopping.
"Corbin it is so good to see you." Lauren said as she hugged him.
"I haven't seen you since we graduated, how's life?" Everybody stood in the kitchen.
"Everything's good, I'm still modeling." She responded.
"Still working with Craig?" Monique asked.
Lauren nodded her head and pulled out an envelope.
"What's that?" Monique asked. Lauren handed the envelope to Corbin.
"Craig is having a holiday function; it's like a vacation almost. Take a few days off, sleep at Craig's house." Lauren explained.
"Sounds like fun." Corbin looked at Monique.
"Yeah, it's like a little reunion because everyone is going to be there." Lauren continued.
"It would be nice to see everyone again, what do you think?" Corbin looked at Monique and handed her the letter.
"Well we would have to check our schedules but if we can make it then sure." Monique smiled just as the doorbell rang.
Corbin left out of the kitchen to answer it. Lauren turned back over to Monique and smiled.
"So how was filming?" She asked.
"It was a lot of fun. The cast is amazing; they're like a second family." Monique responded.
"I'm talking about Tyrese." Lauren smiled.
The girls giggled. Monique began to respond until she heard footsteps.
"Hi Monique." The girls looked up to see Kayla in the kitchen with Corbin.
"What's up?" Monique responded.
Lauren was wide eyed as she looked from Kayla to Monique. Corbin walked over to Monique.
"I'm gone baby." He said.
Monique turned to look at him. "Where are you going?"
"She's taking me to a few stores so we can check out some stuff." He responded. "Give me a kiss."
Corbin pecked Monique a kiss on the lips before he turned and hugged Lauren. Kayla and Corbin both walked out of the house, leaving Lauren and Monique in the house.
"Okay, I'm confused. Can you please tell me what the hell that was all about?" Lauren looked at Monique.
Monique pulled out her blender. "Kayla is Corbin's wardrobe consultant."
"Since when?" Lauren asked.
Monique pulled out some fruit from the refrigerator, placed them down on the countertop and cut them in slices.
"Since when I got back. When Corbin had a game in Atlanta, I saw her there." Monique responded.
"You better hope that she don't try nothing." Lauren said.
"No, I trust Corbin. I know he wouldn't even try to let nothing happen like that." Monique shook her head no.
"I thought I could trust Carnell too, until he kissed that Spirit girl when we were in college." Lauren responded.
Monique turned on the blender. "How long has it been since you talked to him?" she asked.
"I don't know, since college maybe." Lauren shrugged her shoulders.
Monique turned the blender off and poured her drink in two cups. It was silence between them but Lauren broke it.
"I used to model with Tyrese when we were in college." Lauren smiled at Monique.
"So?" Monique laughed.
"Nothing, I am just saying." Lauren responded. "How were his kisses?"
"How do you even know I kissed him?" Monique asked.
"He told me. Yeah we're friends. He doesn't know I'm your friend though." Lauren responded.
Monique looked at her friend and shook her head. Monique grabbed her car keys and her jacket.
"Let's go." She said as she walked to the front door.
"Don't try to ignore me." Lauren laughed as she walked out of the house with Monique.
Miles away from home, Corbin was riding in the car with Kayla.
"You made me spend a lot of money Kayla." Corbin laughed as he looked at the bags full of clothes in the backseat.
"Don't worry; you will look so good in those clothes." Kayla quickly looked at Corbin and turned her head back onto the road.
"Where are we going?" He asked.
"To my house." Kayla responded as she pulled up to her house.
"This is your house?" Corbin asked.
"Yeah, this is what big clients will give you. Come on." Kayla got out of her car along with Corbin.
They walked inside of the house and Corbin was amazed at the sights.
"This is beautiful." He said.
"Thank you." She smiled.
"What are we doing here?" Corbin asked.
"I needed to get a few things for my next client. Don't worry; I'll get you back home to Monique." Kayla responded before she headed up the stairs.
Corbin looked around in the living room. He saw pictures hanging on the wall of a lot of people. He heard footsteps and turned around to see Kayla with a stack of clothes in her hand.
"Let me help you." Corbin walked over to Kayla and took some of the clothes from her.
"Thank you." Kayla placed some of the clothes on the couch. Corbin did the same.
"Were those your parents?" Corbin walked over to the picture on the wall.
Kayla walked over to him. "Yeah, they took that picture at a Christmas party they went to."
"Speaking of Christmas, what are you doing?" Corbin asked.
"I don't know. I haven't really thought about it. I've been working a lot." She responded. "I'll probably be working on Christmas too."
Corbin didn't know what to say. He looked at Kayla who had walked back over to the pile of clothes.
"Can you help me put some of these things in my car?" She asked.
Corbin nodded his head yes and grabbed some of the clothes. They walked out of the house, to Kayla's car and placed the clothes in the trunk. They got inside the car and drove back to Corbin's house.
Kayla pulled into Corbin's driveway and she sat in the car.
"Do you need help?" She asked.
"No, I think I'll be fine." Corbin responded.
He reached in the backseat and got the bag of clothes from when he went shopping earlier. He looked back over at Kayla. She seemed to look down.
"Look, if you're not doing anything for the holidays, I know a guy who's having a Christmas party. If you want, you should come." Corbin smiled.
"No, I don't want to intrude on anything. Besides I don't think Monique would be okay with that." Kayla shook her head no.
"She'll be fine. If you change your mind, call me." Corbin said.
"Thanks." Kayla smiled.
Corbin nodded his head yes before he got out of the car and walked into his house.
"Corbin!" Monique yelled when she heard the front door close.
"Baby I'm home." Corbin responded.
Monique ran down the stairs to greet Corbin. Corbin picked his wife up and kissed her passionately.
"You missed me?" He asked with a smile on his face.
"Yeah, it's dark. I didn't know when you were getting home. I thought Kayla had kidnapped you or something." Monique kissed Corbin on the lips again and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Oh please, she wouldn't do that." Corbin laughed.
Monique released her arms from around Corbin's neck and she looked through his bag.
"Monique I have something to tell you." Corbin looked at Monique.
"What?" She looked up at Corbin.
Corbin walked over to Monique and stood behind her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and placed soft kisses on her neck.
"You know how we were talking about going to Craig's holiday function?" Corbin rubbed his hands up and down Monique's thighs.
"Yeah." Monique smiled and closed her eyes.
"Well I told Kayla she could come." Corbin said.
"You did WHAT?" Monique quickly opened her eyes and looked at her husband.
