Mercedes's POV

Conniehey walked into the living room. "Hey Conniehey I'm back." Conniehey fainted.

"Why did he faint? Conniehey! Get up! This dog is crazy."

"What?!" I shook my head. "Mom, why I thought that we established that you could return for this and before the baby shower and stay for like couple of months."

"Yes but I thought if Mary could be out here why can't I?" She popped daddy's hand. "Drop my luggage Joshua. I'm staying."

"I had a feeling that you were going to say this so I had this drawn up."

"What you had drawn up Josh?" She snatched the paper. "A contract?! I'm not signing this! You won't make me! This is my baby and grandbabies Mercedes tell your father that he's gone crazy with this."

"Mom, sign the paper! J3 hand over your pen if you want to stay until the baby is born you'd sign this."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, we all are serious!"

She pulled out a chair sitting down. "Mary, tell me did you have to sign a contract?"

"Bernice no I didn't it's that I know my place and the other thing that is different from my situation and yours is that I was asked. My son asked me granted it's been some years and you missed out on a lot with the pregnancy and birth of TJ, if you care enough for Mercedes you will sign this contract."

Mary pushed the paper in front of her. "Do you think that I should sign it? Let me rephrase it, would you sign it?"

"Bernice, yes I would sign it you want to be here for everything you have to abide by what Sam and Mercedes say, TJ is their child you can't butt in when they have put their foot down TJ already has a routine no need in you changing it up. I'm here to assist Mercedes with what she needs me with, I wouldn't mind you joining me out here but you have to just bring it down from 100 to a low 20."

She rolled her eyes. "Geez, some one hand me pen." J3 placed it in her hand. "There you have it. It is signed! I get to stay!"

"No you don't you just signed a contract that states after the gender reveal party that you Bernice Jones will return to Lima, Ohio with your husband Joshua Jones the next day only to return for the baby shower and two months after AJE is born."

She gasped. "Joshua no you did not."

"Yes, I did Bernice you are just too much enjoy your time here for these few days. Mercedes what do you have up in this refrigerator." He rubbed his stomach. "I'm starvin' like Marvin."

"We have some left over pizza."

"Meh, hello Unique I saw your show I love it!" He kissed her on the cheek. "I love it! I love how you end it It's Unique!"

"Thank you and Mercedes is coming up next but before then, what happened to you?"

"Oh, um…Tank did this to me."

"Child say what? Mercedes you know of this."

I sighed. "Yes mom. I know about it the PI just left detailing everything that happened. Daddy do you want me to heat you up a few slices of pizza?"

"No I'll help myself all you can do for me is sit down prop up your feet."

Mom smacked his head. "I can't believe you would do this to me! I'm going up to get settle in you won't be getting my cookie tonight. Unique help me with my things you can tell me everything that happened."

"Okay. So I was out…"

"I'll make due baby you know you can't go long without me!" She walked up the stairs fussing. "I knew that would work. So, how is everything with you baby girl?

"Mercedes I'm going out to the grocery shopping. Do you have the list ready?"

"Yes, I do." I opened memo. "I wrote it on my phone I'll send it to you because I have a few more things I need to add. "

"Alright, J3 are you coming with me."

"Mercedes are you good?"'

"Go ahead J3 I'm good. I'm not going anywhere just going to sit her to catch up with daddy and Puck is here."

"A'ight, Uncle Joshua do you want anything?"

He smacked his lips. "Chipotle, baby girl you want something from there?" He opened his wallet handing J3 $100.

"Yes, please daddy. J3 you know what I like."

"For sure, unc your usual?"

"Yeah. Hurry back now."

"I WILL!" J3 shouted running out the house.

"Mercedes I'm going to take Conniehey for a walk." Conniehey sat up. "I knew that would perk you up.
Let's go."

Arf [I'm going for a walk I hope I see that chick I like I heard that she's spayed. She meets my requirements. Who is the dog that wants her to lick his balls? Conniehey!]

Dad laughed. "That Conniehey is funny. Where is Conniehey best friend TJ and Uncle Stevie?"

"Stevie believe it or not has a fiancé they're engaged to be married."

"You joking?! The big kid himself scored someone! Wow! How did TJ take the news?"

"Daddy you're going to love this TJ drew some picture to ask Stevie's girl the kiddie version of 21 questions, when he saw it was Aunt Denise he ripped them up and she has a 19 year old daughter that he has a crush on that's all the approval TJ needed."

"TJ is boy so fresh I don't know what you and Sam are gonna do with him by the time he turns into a teen. What about the boo in his age range Gabby or Jazzy?"

"I'm looking forward to the day on the other hand I'm not. They're both fine Jazzy got suspended for beating up Gabby, Jazzy said that Gabby pushed her, Gabby said she didn't do it came to blows I thought the first suspension for either one of them would be over who could get to sit next to TJ proved me wrong."

"I know my grandson is cute and all of that they too young to be fighting over him maybe second grade or third. This next thing I'm going to say is a somewhat none of my business but last time your mother and I were out here you and Sam were going at it like some horny rabbits. Is Sam enjoying it or he needs a break?" He singsong.

"Daddy I haven't been in the mood Sam hasn't played since we christened our room that first night after that it was on a slow decline. We had our ultrasound this week he let it be known that he's been without asking if there were any pills."

"Oh, Sam! No, why? Did you feel embarrassed?"

"Yes, I did same level as when he was screaming out the window as we made our way down here for the engagement week he was screaming slay Mercedes slay tell them why you wounded I put the blanket over my head. With this…"

He patted my knee. "This is a talk your mother should have with you but I'm going to speak for Sam with your brother your mother went through the same thing I had to be hands on…"

I covered my ears. "Dad this is something that I don't want to hear or vision."

"Just how can I word this I know you probably don't feel sexy for Sam that you are just his wife with a mini human growing on the inside but Sam loves you regardless how you look, it can be your worst day where you don't get anything done he still loves you go plan a romantic night him and you TJ is in the protective care of family surprise him with this. I know you miss that."

"Yes, I do miss it daddy. I'm not going to lie I swear AJE is controlling that…oh." I closed my eyes giggling. "I love it when he does that, and that."

"Mercedes…." He propped up his head. "You love it when Sam does what?"

"I can't tell you daddy but I'll make sure Sam thanks you when he gets back from this game on Sunday night!"

AJE's POV

Cinnamon – AJE girl get up! Your grandfather just shared some exiting news your granny won't be staying until you arrive.

Say what? You know I was fetus down I want to thank you for fanning me!

Cinnamon – It was nothing he just made her sign a contract she must roll out when he rolls out! She's coming back at a later date!

That's the best news I've heard since I've been growing up in here but I got one question for you. What did mommy get to eat? Oh what *smacks lips* Chipotle! I'm straight. Aunt Mary and Aunt Rachel went shopping at Costco yesterday and I forgot to tell her to get you some food but you can have some carrots. I know a lot of you are wondering when did I get a pet I called Jenny yesterday saying I need one.

Cinnamon – Okay ooh these carrots hit the spot the both of us will check in with you later.

TJ's POV

"Hey Simba! You're gonna be a mighty king so enemies beware! One day you will be king!" I jumped hearing the applause. "Thank you. I get my vocals from my mommy! Don't forget to watch my mommy's interview on my aunt's TV show It's Unique! He is so huge! Look at them paws."

"They are huge!"

"I know right. Wassup little man." I gasped turning around. "Surprise that you'd see me again you gonna give me your Uncle Shane a hug." Azimio stepped in twisting his arm. "Ohhh..shit! Let me go! You're hurting me!"

"Oh no! Stevie! You told me to leave my hatchet at home there go Shane that's okay. I got this!" She pulled out her mini razor slicing his arm. "Serves him right TJ are you okay?"

"Yes, Aunt Denise. He popped out of nowhere he wanted me to hug his nasty self."

"My nephew hug you?" Uncle Stevie walked a few steps back running kicking him in the face. "That's for Tank's ass!"

"Don't you mess with my boo." Gabby smacked him.

"Yeah, leave TJ alone!" Jazzy kicked him in his balls. JT, Ian and Logan jumped on Shane punching him.

"Stevie record this! We have to show Puck this beat down. Get him!"

The security guard appeared out the crowd. "Hey! Hey! Kids stop! Get off him! Sir let him go! Get your arms from around his neck."

Shane although he was black turned a shade lighter. "Let me go! I can't…" Azimio released his grip pushing him to the ground. "Breathe! Why did you do that?!" He coughed. "I just wanted to speak to my nephew."

"I am not your nephew! Stop calling yourself Uncle Shane! You big turd!"

"Sir I'm going to have to ask you to leave you are disturbing the peace of the visitors here at the San Diego zoo along with the animas, Mufusa over there isn't too happy!"

"B-But what about them look at what that did to me! Forget Muf-"

RAAAAAAWWWWWRRRR "WOW! GO AHEAD MUFUSA GET YOUR ROAR ON!"

"….I'm gone!" Shane got up running he dropped something I put it in my pocket.

"Wow! It's been a minute since he's let out a roar he was over that foolishness too. Are you guys alright? You are okay son? You kids were putting a work in on him."

"Yeah, I'm good we have a saying and it's…SCOOT BACK, SCOOT BACK, SCOOT BACK! Yeah!" We all hi-fived.

"I like that! I'm going to have to use that. You all enjoy the rest of your visit here at the San Diego zoo."

"Baby, I want to apologize to you for telling to keep your hatchet at home I'm glad you had your razors you were right and I was wrong."

"I accept your apology Stevie." They kissed Mufusa purred. "Mufusa! You too much!"

Jacey ran down the hill. "Stacey and me were down there looking at the panda bear we hear two ladies talking about how some kids were beating up on some guy was it. Was it Shane? Was it Tank?"

"You can tell by the way Denise is calm it wasn't Tank, Brittany didn't even have to chase after Tana she felt it wasn't him."

"Yeah, Shane ass was here Azimio took him down then the kids minus TJ went in on him. No worries we got video we need a movie night out our house!"

"YAY!"

"We need snacks for later on! Listen up we're going to visit a few more animals hit up the gift shop, grocery store change into PJs then movie night Stenise house!"

This kid tapped Aunt Denise on her shoulder. "Excuse me Ms. Pittman? I told y'all this was Ms. Pittman. Are these all your kids?"

"No, my son, nieces and nephew Avery how are you?"

"I'm good, where is Deja?!"

"Deja is at home sulking she know I don't play. Stevie, boo this is one of my students I taught English III she and Deja were in my class."

"Yeah, Ms. Pittman didn't play! Her classroom was on lock you didn't even clown with the substitute. Best teacher I ever had! You know I attend UCLA right?"

Conniehey's POV

Jenny asked Mary and Denise a question about me not knowing where she was going to go with it and they both said no only one who said yes was Deja at least one of them loves me!

"Conniehey, Conniehey can you believe that granny was trying to stay?"

Arf [She's overbearing! Glad granddaddy made a contract.]

"Is that why you fainted?"

Arf [Yeup channeled my inner TJ he would be so proud of me.] I raised my leg peeing on a tree. I had to drain my mini lizard.

"You know what Conniehey I'm going to tell you my plan for since all you do is bark it's going to be safe with you. I'm going to…"

"Hey Princess come back here you got off your leash."

Arf Arf [Here she comes! Here she comes!] I sat.

"Conniehey why are you sitting boy we suppose to be….oh I see why?" Puck rubbed my head. "You like her don't you." I licked his face. "I take that as a yes."

"Conniehey I thought you were neutered."

Arf [I took one of PawPaw pills you going to have to carry me home.]

"That's too much for a dog"

Arf [I popped one of PawPaw pills!]

TJ's POV

"Oh good! Deja did the laundry. That's nice of her. Is that her phone in her hand?" Aunt snatched it waking Deja up. "Why do you have your phone?"

"M-Mom I needed some notes I took them on my phone I called dad and he gave me the password I also texted him. That's it. You can check and see. I promise you. I did not call him you can check my call log, check the bill, you can check iTunes to see if I downloaded a app to text him in secret Matt and I are over now I just needed my phone because I had some notes I needed I took a picture of them that's why I had my phone."

"Mmmmm…dad okay you texted and called him. I'm still going to check through it to make sure. I'm going up to shower jets on deck. Deja get TJ in his PJ's we're having movie night!"

"Deja! Hi Deja boo! Here is your gift from the zoo I hope you love it I named him already Thadnae my name and your name."

"Thank you." She pulled out the bear. "So cute a lion I'm going to put this on my bed at school. Let's go upstairs get you changed. You know what movie we're watching?"

I sat on the bed kicking off my shoes. "The beat down us kids got into was two of them can't wait to watch the other one. What did you do while we were gone?"

"Did some homework, studied, looked over some notes, scrolled through my phone all my pictures of him are gone. Put these on and I'm going to put these in your bag." She picked up my shorts. "TJ what is this in your pocket? Who does this belong to?"

"Shane."

"Mommy! Mommy!"

"What's going on?" She held up the phone. "Who phone is this? Where did this came from?"

"I was packing up TJ's items putting his dirty clothes in a separate bag this fell out his pocket he says it belongs to Shane."

"Shane dropped this?"

"Uh-huh when Mufusa roared it fell out of his pocket everyone was so focused on him I picked it up then Jacey showed up thought nothing of it."

"Baby! Come on I got the jets ready."

"Stevie this is Shane's phone."

"Shane dropped his phone! How did you get it?"

"TJ had it this whole time. It's ringing! Should we answer it?"

"Answer it. No, let it go to voice mail."

"What if we don't know his passcode to get to his voicemail? He hung up! Dammit!" She flipped over the phone. "We'll get access after all Shane wrote his password on the back of his phone. Idiot."

"Let's listen to the voice-mail."

"Hello Shane. Shane. Come on man leave it to you to play on my phone well since you are too busy to say anything I went by their house I didn't get over it some crazy ass guy showed up pulling off my mask…."

Sam's POV

I'm tired and sleepy but I must end my day with FaceTime with the wifey. "Hi baby I can't talk too long how was everything today."

"Very eventful the PI said take has a gofundme account, they're staying at a Holiday Inn,, the biggest news is that he's requesting for a copy of TJ's birth certificate."

"Why is he requesting for that? It's complete."

"That's what I said he said something on the lines Tank might try to get full custody of TJ, visitations something."

"I'll call our lawyers no such thing will happen Tank doesn't even care about TJ he got some nerve. You look tired baby I know that didn't drain you?"

"No, that didn't just my mother is here."

I dropped phone. "Wait I dropped it on my face. I'm good. That would explain the bags under your eyes she hasn't been stressing you out so far, has she?"

"Yes, she is I woke up from a nap she had a color wheel picking out the colors she wanted on the wall and wallpaper she gave me my baby shower gift list. She selected the items herself. The menu, she's asking about the cake and daddy is out here too."

"I was about to ask he's healed now he can put his foot down how did this breech happen."

"Her being smart packing a bag leaving it at a friend house daddy made her sign a contract that she would leave with him to only return for the baby shower and a couple months for us to get settled it. she held up for almost 45 minutes until your mother sweet talked her into signing it she was happy thinking she was staying until AJE arrived she has to go home."

"How did the beat down go?"

"All of them fools were up in here in the kitchen dancing to Michael Jackson Beat It, PawPaw knocked out on the couch with no pants on the pillow on his area I let him have the pillow no need for me in saving that."

"Was it my nap pillow? Say it wasn't my pillow." I crossed my fingers.

"Sorry baby."

"NOOOOOOOOO! Ew! I loved that pillow! We're going to have to replace that whole couch. He didn't have any pants on. Did he leave any stains?"

"Sam! Ew! I didn't think to check for some stains I don't even. In the words of Denise I cannot! I just can't! How are you?"

"I'm stressed out!"

"When you get home I can help you get unstressed."

"How?"

"Sam! What do you mean how? You know!" She flashed her boob.

I smiled. "A spelling bee?" She nodded my head laughing. "D-Don't say this and get tired or change your mind or not in the mood…"

"Nope I have a little something up my sleeve for you when you return. Just be ready! Sam I'll be ready, I know you'll be ready…"
