Mercedes POV
"Daddy, why did you call that play you know their defense is running the nickel defense and you'd call that play?!" TJ tossed his sock at the TV. "I can't!"
"Neither can I you know you are not supposed toss any item off your person towards the screen. Go get it. What is the score?"
"Bengals 27 Charges 14 they just intercept it! I can't with this daddy run the ball next time! Mommy can me and Conniehey go outside to play."
"No, I want you to stay inside so I can keep an eye on you."
"Mommy you can keep an eye on me outside too I have not been out to play since Tuesday anyone that wants to play with me has to come inside. Why? Is it because we ran into Shane?"
I choked on my drink. "Well, no it's not because of him I just want to spend some time with you."
"We spend time together all of the time, please! You're smothering me."
"What do you know about smothering? Where did you hear that from? I'm not something you TJ I just want you to be safe Ray, Azimio and J3 are asleep Uncle Stevie is out building the dogs living quarters so it's just you, me, Alex J, Conniehey, and daddy on TV." I raised his chin with my hand. "Okay."
"Okay. How is Alex J doing?"
"She's doing fine just growing and growing buying things another package came for her from Forever 21 then her credit card bill came in the mail yesterday she's at her limit of 2k she needs to pay."
"She got a credit card and hasn't purchased me anything! Alexandra, how could you? I love you! I know I said you were a boy but can you buy me something I want this FiLIP watch it's pretty cool you can call people and…"
"TOUCHDOWN CHARGERS! Passing play 65 yards! Hi-five! Woo we are back in this thing see baby you wanted to give up watching you can't give up on anything you have to see it through. Hi Deja."
"Deja boo!" TJ hugged her. "I was just thinking about you mommy said that a package came from Forever 21 I think AJ bought you something."
"Yes, Alex J got my cardigan and romper, thank you itty bitty cousin. It's the perfect size too I'm going to put it on right now." She opened her coat. "This is the approved outfit mom picked out for me it sucks!"
"I think it looks nice."
"Well, I don't I'll be down in a minute." She went upstairs. "Conniehey out the bathroom! You have a bowl of water downstairs."
Arf [This is so much better. I'm gone. What? Don't give me that look."
"Conniehey you know better the toilet isn't your source of hydration off the couch your Aunt Denise is on her way over I texted her about Deja. Might want to run and get her pudding you know kisses for puddings."
"Uh-huh follow me Conniehey you need fresh water not toilet water."
The doorbell rang. "Denise you got your key!"
"No, I just ran I didn't grab my shoes or nothing Jesus I was just about to get me a cold pop!" I wobbled over to the door. "Thank you sorry about getting you up off the couch you looked comfortable. TJ you got my pudding I'll give you your kiss in a minute, where mis Conniehey. Aaaahhhh. He rubbed up against me!"
Arf [Hehehehe I love doing that. She gon' pet me one day just not today Bailey and Preston snuck me some more of your underwear you'll pet me eventually.]
"Who is screaming?" J wiped his eye. "I should have known that it was Denise want me to take Conniehey out the house play outside for a little while?"
"Yes! I want to play outside. Aunt Denise rain check on the kiss I'm going with J3."
"J3 keep a close eye on him. Alright." He placed $1 on the counter. "For my pudding."
"Aunt Mercedes here I come!" Deja singsong. "How do I….oh lord! Mommy, hey! D-Don't this is just a romper. You like it?"
"No, take it off I know you didn't spend my hard earned money on this whatever money your father gave you better not have purchased this."
"I did not I asked my little cousin to get me this she did! This looks good this is a number I will be wearing on campus, Mother May I won't be there to say this is gateway, me blinking is a gateway, me breathing is a gateway. What isn't a gateway?"
"Deja none of those are gateways maybe blinking and the fluttering of the eyes, change back to the approved outfit it looked nice on you." Deja folded her arms stomping up the stairs. "Stomp one more time on a step see what I do no mumbling or eye rolling I feel that you know what walking might be a gateway if she's swaying her hips I got to rewrite the rules. Been meaning to get around here but I'm busy grading papers and practicing with the debate team finally got a week where I could kick back, what you been up to?"
"I sick of these "gateways", I just want a laptop myself. I could use an Apple but that might be a gateway too, oh lord I'm sounding like mom Preston's Adam's apple gateway. Me asking Preston what type of ice cream is his favorite and she'll be like "that's a gateway you don't need to be asking him those types of questions", I can't my boo can't come back here! I'll be on radar. Gateways are everything!"
"Nothing much don't really want to go out TJ and I had pajama day the last two days well we got dressed today although we didn't go anywhere."
"Having mommy and son weekend in sounds like fun, you look tired."
I yawned. "I am. I really I haven't been getting much sleep since I've ran into Shane I know Tank isn't far off."
"You'll be right, Deja and Preston were at the mall hanging out I was out there too I needed some leggings I'm about to leave she calls me saying that Tank is in the food court. I made a mad dash there chasing him lost sight of him because this lady was trying to sell me some demon possessed porcelain dolls! I got up out that mall went right home so he's in the area."
"I knew it."
"He lives in the area. Hi Denise." Puck grabbed a handful of popcorn sitting down. "That little piece I put on the PI car come to find out it's Tank's car Lucky and I been by there some apartment building."
"Of course he moves down here had Sam and I moved to the east coast he'd move their too. Puck before you came in I was telling Denise that I ran into Shane some kid from the party spotted TJ, you know when we go out after school I have TJ remove his school uniform shirt, I bet money he called Tank to tell him that is the school TJ goes to."
"You'd win I did see them at the catholic school so he's looking for TJ, I got to move my plan up to do what I want to do."
"What is it?"
"I can't say but it's happening soon. Don't worry I'm going to get him." He patted my shoulder. "Trust me on this."
"He better get him or I'll be right there standing in the gap to cut him. It just hit me that Deja said her little cousin purchased her that romper me and Alex J about to have a strong discussion she."
Alexandra J's POV
"I don't appreciate that you are sitting in the womb starting trouble in the real world and when you come out there will be a strong discussion waiting on her..."
*rolls eyes stick in ear plugs*Deja told me something like this would happen that's okay I got Preston address with his fine self. Is she done talking Cinny?
Cinny – No your aunt is still going in.
Figures I need to see if I can get TJ that watch he wants, I can buy it for him but mommy and daddy got to put it on their plan.
"To go over gateways and non approved clothing and behavior do you understand your Aunt Denise Alex J? If so kick."
If I kick you is that a gateway? I'm not going to kick."
Cinny –KICK!
Cinny! You and me gonna fight once I get this darn umbilical cord you lucky I'm like this for a few more weeks. I'll see you at 3 o'clock!
TJs POV
"Play where I can see you I'm going over here to the picnic table to call your teacher, see if she want to meet up after school one day for a little tutoring session."
"Okay J3 ask her to tutor you in everything because you need all of the help you can get."
"Lil'cuz you are going to learn from me that I am a ladies man!" He popped his collar. "You gonna ask me to help you one day."
"I probably won't as you see I get the ladies all ready. Just one pout of my cheeks or a wink they swoon you gonna need me how did you think you got Ms. Toles number I'm her favorite student. I'm her class son. Conniehey let's go for a walk."
"Hello, Hey Ms. Toles…nothing just outside talking to you TJ's over there playing."
"Hi TJ." Chey hugged me. "Where have you been? I've been looking for you most the week I even knocked on the door to ask if you could come outside to play your mommy said that you couldn't."
"My mommy saw my daddy friend and she's been keeping me in the house only reason I'm outside now is because that fool over there is suppose to be watching me."
"Hahaha yeah, I know I was just showing off for you." J3 flexed his muscle. "See this big gun yeah I lift weights."
I rolled my eyes. "More so picking up weight! You want to join Conniehey and me for a walk we're just going down to the park."
"Chey!"
"I'm sorry I got to go to evening service. I'll see you in school on Monday. I'll be your buddy."
"Okay. Conniehey we're almost there, glad I got a ball with me." I threw the ball. "Go long!"
Arf [That was good throw; throw it again but this one with an arch.]
"Go again! Fetch! Good Boy! Nice catch Conniehey. This ball is going to go long. Bring it back! Conniehey that's not where the ball went! Bring me the ball! What are you sniffing at?"
Arf Arf [A little box and a mini Lord Tubbington!]
"Aww…Conniehey you found a kitten, where is your mommy? Huh?" I picked up the box. "She left you all alone you are so cute."
Meow Meow
"Yeah, I know what am I going to name you? You look like Simba, you like the name Simba."
Meow
"Okay your name is Simba, Conniehey what you think of your new little brother? Think mommy gonna let me keep him."
Arf [Simple answer TJ, No.]
"Hi TJ, what do you have there?"
"A-A kitten can't you see it what kind of a question is that?"
She shrugged her shoulders. "I just want to make sure you knew what you had there. Do you know who it belongs to?"
"It's a stray it doesn't belong to anyone. I found him first named him and everything. His name is Simba, isn't that right cutie."
"Why don't you come with me so we can clean this little one up before you take him home to your mommy? Sounds good it has some gunk in his ears need to get that fixed."
"Okay."
Mercedes POV
"I haven't heard a peep out of TJ in a while I'm going out here to check on him." I opened the door. "TJ! Conniehey! Where are you two?! J3 is still on the phone." J3."
"…so you like that huh?"
"J3!" I screamed. "I know you hear me."
"Yeah, I do, hold on boo. I put the phone on mute, what you want?"
"Where are TJ and Conniehey?"
"He over there." He pointed by the gate.
I smacked him upside the head. "J3, TJ isn't here the gate is open! I told you to watch him! TJ!" Denise, Stevie, Ray, Azimio, Deja, and JT ran outside.
"What's going on?"
"Baby I'm going to have to call you back, something just went down. What?" I wiped my tears. "TJ's missing."
