Michael

I was back at home googling "what does it mean if a woman says her uterus is screaming?" I started seeing things about women's menstrual.  If her period cramps was hurting her that's all she had to say. I took a shower, brushed my teeth and got ready for Laila's single premiere. I sprayed some cologne on my body before grabbing my keys and wallet. I grabbed the bouquet of flowers and the gift I got for Laila then went out the house.

I started making my way to Y/N's house as I was thinking about Y/N and how she's constantly there for everyone even when she got her own shit going on. There was never ever a complaint, she did it with love every time. She definitely deserved the world and anything she wanted.

Proposal has always been on my mind but lately it's been there strongly because I feel there's no need to wait anymore. I honestly wanted to get eloped but I also wanted to do it the traditional way. I wanted to propose to her when this whole thing with her going to court ended because I didn't want to overshadow something that was special for the both of us especially her. This is something she's been wanting and something I also been wanting and I don't want anything overshadowing that moment for us.

Apparently the lawyers Y/N have are trying to work with the courts to speed this case up which they're looking to either go to court the end of the year the beginning of next. Maya been had a court case since the beginning of this year for Jevon she just needed Y/N to help secure and win the case to put him away. I still didn't trust her at all even if this is her case I don't know she still seems like there's a disconnect between her and Y/N. She'll say a joke but the joke comes off as if she's being serious and jealous of where Y/N's at.

Y/N doesn't boast about it she just makes her money and keep it moving so I never understood why Maya had an actual issue with Y/N because it's definitely there.

I typed Y/N's code into the gate pin pad as it let me in and I pulled up in her driveway. I parked the car and got out going to ring her doorbell. She finally opened the door as she was dressed in all white and her hair was now in curls.

Her make up was Done naturally and she had a Dior shopping bag in her hand along with a bouquet of white Flowers. "Look at that white chocolate" I hyped as she just scrunched her face at me. "Get it because you're wearing all white and you're chocolate" I explained as she just looked at me. "You're annoying" she jokingly said as I chuckled. She locked the door behind her as we started walking to the car together.

I opened the door for her as she got in and thanked me. I closed her door then got in on the drivers side. I then pulled out beginning to drive. Y/N was messing with her hair in her phone camera as I was looking between her and the road. "Your hair looks cute munchie" I honestly said. "Thanks I would love it if it stayed like this" she said as I chuckled "not if you staying the night, it won't" I admitted. "Michael" she said then sighed some. "I don't even know why you did that because you already know what type of timing we on get some brai-" I started off as Y/N just looked over at me cutting me off. "What?" I asked.

"I'm live" she simply said as my mouth dropped. " Mike I was talking about the humidity" she added as i covered my mouth beginning to laugh. "Y'all go stream hours and hours by Laila" I said into the camera making Y/N laugh as she placed her phone down. "I thought you were fixing your hair I didn't think you was on live" I expressed "and you ain't never went live until today" I added as she laughed some . "Babe" she simply said then sighed ending the live.

"Awwwww you're upset they won't look at you as Americas sweetheart anymore?" I teasingly asked. "When have I ever been looked at as Americas sweetheart?" I asked. "Y/N I haven't seen one thing in the media posting anything negative about you" I brought up. "No that's not true when Maya came out and said what she said about me the media tried to come for me" she brought up.

"No They put the situation out there but they were all in favor of you even when she tried to blame you for why she was in the position she was in" I explained. "It's my great grandmother and my grandmothers prayers boo simple" she said "oh and my prayers too stink" she added as I chuckled. I believed in God but she was more into than me which I respected because i mean why not have a relationship with him She in a way is a living testimony that he is real.

She never condemned anyone for how they lived because of who she believed in and whole heartedly I felt like if I opened up to her about learning more about it she would make it a safe space for it to happen.

I just smiled over at her as I grabbed her hand and kissed it. She smiled and soon made it to her mothers house. We got out as I grabbed Laila's gifts and Y/N did the same for what she got her.

"Look at my baby out here looking cute with his little trench coat" I heard Y/N say behind me as I chuckled and stopped to look at her.

"Tonight I'm gonna dance for you" she sung "you going to dance for me?" She asked. "Babe for you I'll put on a whole show" I admitted making her laugh as I kissed her cheek and we walked up to the door. I rung the doorbell as Y/N's mother opened the door. "Hey" her mother greeted us as we walked in.

"Hey ma" I said kissing her cheek. She just stepped back and looked at Y/N with a smile. "It's good to have you home baby" her mother said. "Thank you mommy" Y/N said hugging her mother as she kissed her cheek. I closed the door behind us seeing the house was decorated and had about thirty almost forty of us in it.

Of course it was Will and Y/N's mother, my parents were here, Steelo, Dani and Dream were here and then Y/N and Laila's extended family like cousins, uncles and aunts were here. Laila's friends and a couple of people in the industry Will we're cool with was here.

"Where's Laila?" Y/N asked. "She's in the living room getting set up for the live. We walked into the living room seeing lights and cameras set up for her Live before her single dropped at midnight. They were touching up her make up and hair as she was sitting in the chair getting ready. I just smiled at her as

Y/N smiled. "Damn I'm about to cry" Y/N said as I laughed.

"You look so gorgeous mama" Y/N said going over to Laila hugging her. "Thank you" Laila thanked with a big smile. "You nervous?" Y/N asked her. "As hell" Laila stressed as Y/N laughed. "You'll be fine. I'm right here" Y/N assured holding her hand as I smiled at them. "Congrats girl" I said to Laila as we hugged "thanks" Laila thanked. "If it helps you take the stress off of you we got you some gifts for you" I said handing her , her bouquet of flowers and the Chanel shopping bag.

"Thank you" Laila thanked as Y/N handed Laila the gifts that were from her also. About five minutes later she started her question an answer and she held herself good. She was articulate with everything, sat up straight and had fun.

She had two more questions left to the Q & A as everyone was all listening out of the way from her moment.

"Who do you look up too in general as a young woman growing into the woman that you want to become?" Laila read off of her phone as she smiled some. "Almost all the woman that are in my life I look up too and I thank them for everything they have done for me. But my Sister is who I really look up too." She started off as I faintly smiled.

"She's constantly there to love on me, constantly there to support and uplift me. She's such a strong, loving, woman who embraces everyone she encounters and I just love and look up to my big sister. I am happy that she's my sister" she expressed as I looked over at Y/N as Y/N just smiled.

I just placed an arm around Y/N making her her smile harder.

"Lord She back here about to cry" Steelo said as the whole room started to laugh. Y/N just hit his arm playfully as he laid his head on her head giving her a hug.

"What is the song Hours and Hours about? And who is it dedicated too?" Laila read off of her phone.

"The song hours and hours is a song that I've written based off of a love I hope to experience one day. How I would want someone to make me feel or how I would want someone else to feel about me. I'm only nineteen so I've never got to experience love like the love I'm talking about in the song but I do have perfect examples of love in front of me to write and sing about and the song is dedicated to Y/N and her boyfriend Michael" Laila explained as Y/N and I just stood there loss.

Laila started thanking everyone and her fans before youtube ended the live and released her song.

"Yours, mine, ours

I could do this for hours

Sit and talk to you for hours

I wanna give you your flowers

And some champagne showers

Order shrimp and lobster towers

But it's me that gets devoured"

I just smiled and looked down at Y/N as she just smiled and looked up at me. "She asked you how I make you feel?" I asked as Y/N smiled and nodded.
