"We cheetah girls, cheetah sistaas." We all yelled along to the song.

Ny, Mu, Memo and I were having a girls day like we used to, just us four. We're always around each other but lately we haven't been talking and bonding as we should so we took these two days to enjoy each other company before the game in Ohio.

"So what's been going on?" Nyasia asked as our favorite movie went off.

"I'm about to be four months." I smiled touching my little pudge belly as they smiled.

"I can't wait until you have this baby." Memo smiled then looked at Ny. "You too cause it seem like you been pregnant forever."

"For real, ain't you 9 months already? Why your big ass not in labor yet?" Mulan said.

"I don't know." She shrugged sitting her plate on her stomach. "I think I'm going to have to get induced."

"You and Avery better?" I asked.

"Yeah, we have arguments but that's nothing new. He has more patience with me now instead of just putting his hands on me."

"You said it like he be abusing you." Memo said as we laughed.

"He do but I abuse him too, this is a domestic relationship."

"I could relate." I shrugged laughing.

"I bet you can." They laughed. "How you and Josh?"

"We so perfect." I smiled. "I be thinking something going to happen because we a little too happy but I just live in the moment."

"Mulan you still confused?" Nyasia asked making us laugh.

"Memo the confused one now." Mulan smirked making me raise a eyebrow as Memo glared at her.

"Put me on to what I don't know." I smirked putting my finger on my face looking at Memo as she looked at the ground. 

"You gon talk or you want me to explain?" Mulan smirked. 

"Bitch next time some drama or shit happen to you, imma do you how you're doing me." Memo punched her in her arm.

"Bitch, you just got too comfortable." Mulan hit her back making me laugh. 

"Can somebody put me on?" Nyasia asked rolling her eyes.

"Y'all was at the banquet, y'all witnessed Josiah basically claim his love for Memo." Mulan said. 

"Oh that? If you asked Jo he would tell you in a minute how much he wanna be with Memo but he respect Zay too much." I waved them off.

"Unless Memo like him back." Nyasia mumbled making all of us look at her. "Well do you?"

"I supposed to say no right?" She asked shaking her head. "I suppose to tell y'all I don't lowkey dream about Josiah, Aspen and I being a complete family and us just being together again?"

I looked at her in shock as she wiped her eyes before the tear could even fall, I leaned over and hugged her. We all hugged as she continued to cry to us, she looked so confused and broken making my heart hurt.

"I'm engaged to Zay and Zay have been nothing but loyal and down for me but look at me falling for my baby father-- again." She laughed shaking her head. "I would be a damn fool to leave Zay for Josiah."

"Why? Because he cheated on you almost six years ago? While y'all were in high school? Still young as hell?" I asked. 

"Zay stuck with you throughout your whole pregnancy-"

"So did Jo." I cut Nyasia off.

"He was the father, he had no choice."

"He could of chose to be a deadbeat too." I shrugged. "I mean he didn't necessarily have to be around Memo until Aspen was born but he was there though."

"Anyways, Zay have never even looked at another girl since y'all been together, y'all had a child together, y'all lost a child together. That has to bring y'all even closer."

"Mulan, what's your opinion?" Memo asked.

"I've been in this position, it hurts knowing you got two good ass dudes and you don't wanna hurt either. I can't tell you what to do and I'm not on no team, I'm actually neutral. Zay make you happy and Josiah make you another type of happy, whoever you pick won't hurt you."

"If he could cheat once, he could do it again." Nyasia shrugged.

"You cheated on Avery, so you plan on cheating again?" I raised a eyebrow as they all got quiet.

"That's different." She mumbled after a minute or so.

"What's so different about it? Josiah cheated and so did you but now that you say you faithful, how do we know that? You just said it yaself, once a cheater always a cheater."

"She got you right there Ny." Mulan laughed sipping her ciroc.

"Why you want me with Jo? You don't like Zay?" Memo asked looking at me.

"I love Zay but I've spent so many days with Josiah that I could see he regretful as hell. You wonder why all his ex girlfriends felt a type of way about you? It was because he told all of them you'll always be first in his life, you not just his baby mother. He was young and that's no excuse to cheating on you but not many niggas mature that quickly."

"This is stressful, I don't even wanna think about it no more." Memo waved us off. 

"Just answer this, think real quick. Who was the first name to come to your head?" Mulan asked.

"We watching cheetah girls two or the Proud Family movie?" Memo asked ignoring her.

"It was Josiah, wasn't it?" Nyasia asked as Memo slowly nodded her head.

"Just follow ya heart." Mulan said shrugging.

"I miss you." I told Josh over FaceTime as I sat in the bath ina hotel. 

"I miss you more." He sighed. "I be missing you before you even leave my sight."

"Stop before I cry." I mumbled feeling my eyes water.

"Cry?" He squinted his eyes as if I couldn't cry. "I've only seen you cry three times in a span of four years."

Ignoring his statement, I started playing with my nails. "Can you come see me before your game or no?"

"No, we got practice. I actually been suppose to be getting dress but you know I be dropping everything to talk to you."

"Gotta stop doing that." I smiled. "Go get ready and I'll be court side cheering my man on like his own personal cheerleader."

"I love the sound of that."

"I love you." I smiled.

"I love you way more."

"See you baby, good luck."

"As long as I got you, I don't need luck." 

Blushing, I covered my face. "Bye daddy."

Laughing, he smirked. "See you Queen."

Feeling a little sad he hung up as I got up going to prepare my outfit. After three days, we were finally in Ohio for the game. I haven't saw my baby in a whole day and I was feigning for his touch. Today is the day I tell him I'm pregnant and I couldn't wait to see his reaction.

He had been so stressed out because if they don't win this game then their season over with. I had faith in my boys but who knows what's going to happen.

"Can you tell me how you're going to tell him?" Memo asked as we started our makeup.

"No, you'll see in almost three hours." I smiled.

"I just wanna know so I could be even more excited." She smiled.

"Well expect the unexpected."

"You so annoying." She rolled her eyes.

"I miss Aspen." I frowned.

"For real, I wanted to bring my baby but I guess I'll just have to take her on her own trip."

Aspy couldn't come because she had school and we didn't want to pull her out for a game. So she's staying with Lysa and JC, since Lysa having baby fever.

"Memo ya phone ringing!" Mulan yelled as she got closer.

"Who is it?" She asked grabbing her phone, she looked at it then sighed. "Hello?"

"Now you answering?" Zay asked as she put it on speaker.

"Now you calling?" She sarcastically scrunched her face up.

"You just wanna keep arguing, that shit annoying as hell. I don't answer the phone for five days and I'm the worse person ever. I'm in the army, this shit is stressful sometimes I wanna lay back and have days to myself."

"Who chose to go to the army? You! Don't say that army shit stressful to me like I'm just going to feel bad for you, you don't think I'm stressed? I'm a mother, I work, I go to school and I pay bills. I know about stress so don't preach to me."

"I can't tell you stressed." He scoffed.

"What you mean?"

"I'm just saying you not home."

"Because I'm in Ohio for the game, I would of- wait, how you know I'm not home?"

"I came to surprise you and you not here."

"That's your own stupid decision, how long you staying?"

"A week."

"I'll be back in three days."

"I just told you I'm home and you not coming back? You been to plenty games, missing one not gon hurt you. What the fuck?"

"I'm not coming home, this my vacation time. You out your mind."

"You selfish as hell Ivory."

"Nigga you talking? Are you-." She stopped and sighed. " You know what? Let me be selfish for once then Zayn."

"I saw Jo speech at the banquet, nice words and confession. I see why you ain't trying to leave, just let me know wassup."

"Your point? He can't help how he feel. I just told you these are my vacation days, I'm not coming home. Go be with that side bitch you always claim you got down there."

"And when I really go see that bitch don't be crying and saying I hate you, well I might have a chance again anyway since you love the niggas who make you look dumb."

"You right." I laughed. "Make sure you use a condom though, don't wanna go back to base itching."

"Whatever, bye."

She stopped her makeup and sat on the toilet putting her head on her hands. I stopped as Mulan did the same, I sighed hating she was stressing so much.

"Forget about Zay, Josiah or everything else right now. We are going to have the best three days no stressful shit at all." Mulan said making me agree.

"Tonight is all about Josh but tomorrow we will find something to do and turn the hell up while we can." I added making her agree.

"Okay." She nodded going back to do her makeup.

"NeeNee calling." I smiled waiting for it to connect as we all got in the camera smiling.

"Hey cousins!" She yelled smiling. "Wait, where Princess Ny?"

"Her big ass was feeling sick so Ralph and Avery stayed with her."

"Aw, I'mma call my baby but guess what?" She smiled.

"Bitch, you coming back?" Mulan yelled as we all smiled.

"I'll be back in the States next week bitches!" She yelled back as we all started yelling.

"Where Zayyir? I miss my brother." Memo pouted.

"Right here." NeeNee turned the camera to him seeing he was playing the game. "Babe, say hey."

Turning around he glanced at us and smiled. "Wassup y'all?"

"Hey." We all said in unison smiling.

"Imma let y'all finish getting ready, y'all will most definitely be seeing us next week. I'll be watching the game, make me proud Remy."

"As I should." I said smiling.

"We love you." Memo said.

"And I love y'all more babies." She blew a kiss right before hanging up.

"Memo, what you wearing?" Mulan asked as they walked out the room as I touched my little round stomach.

I'm really having a baby, I thought smiling. Let's just hope I'm ready for this.

"What the fuck? Jaylen pass the ball!" Shawn yelled standing up as we all grew aggravated.

We were in the beginning of the fourth quarter losing by 15 points, tension was at an all time high. I don't know if something happened in the locker room or something but they weren't playing like a team right now.

As coach called a time out, I seen Jaylen brush past Josiah and Josiah got in his face pushing him back. Joshua got in the middle pushing them back from each other, I don't know what Josiah said but Jaylen rushed to him tackling him then sending punches.

"What the fuck?!" Memo yelled standing up as we all did.

As Joshua was breaking it up another playing pushed him making him turn around and send two powerful ass punches. Confused wasn't even a word I would use right now, I was aggravated as it seemed like everyone was just fighting.

Finally breaking it up, Josiah and Jaylen continued yelling shit to each other. Both of them was red as hell as you could feel the anger seething off both.

"Avery gon be mad as hell, he missed this." Mulan bent over laughing as she recorded the whole thing.

"Stop!" Memo pushed her phone down as she sighed.

"I just wanna know why they arguing." I shrugged.

Josiah Walker | Jo

"You a bitch ass nigga on my daughter! See me when security ain't here pussy!" I yelled as Joshua kept pushing me back.

"My nigga, we'll see each other again and ain't nobody gon be there! I'mma fuck you up, on ya mother!"

"Don't put shit on my mother cause you don't got one." I yelled out of anger.

Jaylen stopped then tackled the shit out of me punching me twice before I could stop it. I quickly recovered and uppercutted his ass three times, as we went side to side.

We were sending blows back and forth until security grabbed us. We were still trying to get to each other, I'mma whoop his ass as soon as we get to the hotel.

"I'm cool, get off me." I said snatching my arm as we walked towards the locker room.

Passing the Cavs, I heard laughing. I stopped to glare at them wondering what was funny, I'll whoop all these niggas ass.

"What's funny?" I asked looking them up and down.

"What?" Kevin Love long head ass asked.

"Nigga, I said what's funny?"

"Your whole team a joke."

"Word? Aight." I laughed decking the shit out of him. As soon as I did that all my teammates came running towards us and now it was a big ass brawl.

I laughed being pulled away as the Cavs kept yelling, I ain't even care about the consequences right now. I'm mad as fuck and I'mma still beat Jaylen ass later.

"Y'all have got to be fucking kidding me!" Coach yelled as soon as we got in the locker room. "Y'all wait til the most important game of this season to start acting a fool? Are y'all in fucking high school?"

"Josiah hot head ass just popping on everybody tonight, this ain't nobody fault but his." My teammate Greg said.

"Get off his nut sack." Josh said making all of us laugh.

"What?" Greg asked standing up.

"Nigga, I said get off his nut sack." Josh said before Greg tried to run up making me hit him.

"Wassup?!" I squared up pulling my basketball shorts up.

"Yo, chill!" Olem grabbed me as I snatched out his grip.

"I ain't playing with nobody no more! I'll smack every nigga in here and I don't give a fuck! Fuck this game, y'all and the NBA!" I yelled grabbing my stuff.

"Walker!" Coach yelled as I walked out with my stuff.

"Josiah, what you doing?!" Josh yelled.

"Jo, come on son!" Olem yelled.

I ignored them and kept walking, as soon as I got out Memo was leaning on the wall. I rolled my eyes walking straight pass her as I heard her smack her teeth.

"Josiah, for real?" She asked as I kept ignoring her, I felt her walking on the side of me. "What happened? Wait, why you have your bag? What you doing?"

"Memo, you been ignoring my ass for almost a week. Continue."

"Josiah, just talk to me please." She grabbed my arm. "Why you and Jay fighting?"

"We had a argument in the locker room and he bought that shit inna game. I don't give a fuck what we going through, this my career you playing with."

"Okay, why y'all arguing though? Y'all was just on live together playing and shit."

"About you."

She scrunched her face up. "About me?"

"Yeah, I was talking to Josh bout you but he eavesdropping and shit and got mad. He talking about some I had my chance and I blew it, just talking mad shit. I let him talk cause he don't know what the fuck going on between us, nobody know shit about us but US. It's nobody business what we go through but ours."

"I'mma talk to him but Jo, why do you have a bag?"

"I'm done."

"I know you not talking about with the NBA? Are you stupid? You worked so hard to even be where you are and you throwing it away cause you mad? What Aspen gon think when she hear her daddy quit?"

"Memo, she won't even care."

"Let's see what she say." She pulled out her phone as I heard the facetime ringing.

"Mommy!" She smiled. "I watch game, daddy okay?"

Grabbing the phone Memo was handing to me, I sighed. "I'm okay princess."

"I watch you fight, you told me we don't fight cause we have too much to lose so you can't fight antymore."

Laughing, I smiled at her error. "I'm sorry baby, I won't fight no one else."

"Okay, now get back out there and get six more points for me. I love you daddy."

"I love you too princess." I sighed as she hung up.

"So why you ain't tell her?" Memo smirked. "Go back out there and make us both proud, whether y'all win or lose, we'll still be so proud rocking ya jersey."

"Alright Ivy."

"Now gimme hug and get back in there."

Rolling my eyes, I relaxed into her arms as she held me. I kissed her cheek and released from her, I walked back in the locker room as they were sitting there in silence. They looked up as I put my bag down.

Josh grasped my hand smiling as I smirked, I wrapped my ankle and slid my shoes on. I was waiting to see if I had to sit out the rest of the game but I was good to go. I sighed and went back on the court as they cheered for us.

We started again with only a few minutes left, I didn't care on winning. I just needed to make these six points my baby asked for.

~

"Good game." LeBron grasped my hand patting me on my back.

"Good looks, you too." I returned the gesture.

We lost by 8 points, I was slightly disappointed but I couldn't blame nobody but us. We didn't work as a team, we didn't come together as one so we lost.

"You lose some, you win some?" Memo questioned innocently smiling.

"Yeah, I guess." I shrugged as she hugged my waist.

"Aspen had to go to bed but she saw you made her six points and she's so proud, we all are."

"Yeah, I just wish I felt proud too."

"Pigout and chill?" She offered as I nodded.

"Joshuuaaaa Walkeeerrr! We would like for you to stand in the middle." The announcer said as I looked confused along with him.

Remy came on the jumbo screen and I was even more confused. I looked at him as he returned the look back, I looked at Memo for answers but she just told me to be quiet and wait.

"You know what's the worse about being in love with a ball playa? When they lose, they become big ass babies. Baby, you lost tonight but you won at the same time." She dug in her purse pulling out a sonagram putting it in the camera. "Say hey to our prince."

Josh was standing there with a wide ass smile as I jumped on him, he laughed hugging me as I returned it. That just made me happy as if it was me, I don't even like Remy like that but she was making his dreams come true.

"Proud of you boy!" Jaylen said hugging him as I backed up, I'mma still whoop his ass when we get to the hotel.

Remy came over to us as everybody cheered, I hugged her as she smiled. Josh picked her up and spun her around saying he love her over and over as I smiled watching them.

"You ready?" Memo asked.

"Yeah, we could slide." I nodded.

I congratulated Remy and Josh again and hugged Mu and them then grabbed Memo as we walked out. I got in the rental driving to the nearest gas station to get everything we wanted for our pig out. Once we got everything, we went to her hotel room. After taking separate showers, we were now eating our snacks deciding on a movie.

"Love Jones." We said in unison.

"Why you was ignoring me?" I asked.

"It was just too much, Zay and I arguing, you confessing ya feelings, everything just too much."

"Sorry for adding stress on you, just forget I said anything then."

"I can't just forget you told me your in love with me Josiah, I can't just erase my feelings for you either. I love you, I don't know about being in love but I love you so much and I shouldn't. I'm engaged to a wonderful ass man but I'm second guessing everything, ready to throw all that away just to give this a chance. It's so fucking stressful Josiah!"

Letting her words linger, I sighed. I pulled her into me letting her sensitive ass cry to me. I wiped her face and gave her the bottle of water to drink.

"I'll just back off then, I'm sorry." I told her as I let her go, I stood up getting my stuff.

"Jo, I didn't-"

"Nah, it's cool Ivy. I told you I respected your relationship, I cheated with multiple girls and your best friend. I don't deserve nothing with you, Zay the better man. I'm sorry I crossed some boundaries."

"Josiah-" She got cut off from a knock at the door. "We okay!"

"I'll just leave and we don't have to talk anymore unless it deal with Aspen, you deserve to be happy but look at you crying, I'm tired of you crying over me. Be happy, with Zay."

"I wanna be happy with you!" She confessed tears going down her face.

"Nah, you don't." I kissed her forehead and shook my head. "See you Ivy."

"Josiah!" She said just as I opened the door. I stopped furrowing my eyebrows as he looked back at me stale facing me.

"Zay?" Memo asked as neither of us stopped our staring match.

"Surprise." He said dryly.
