“Our family,” he corrected and I nodded.
“Our family and I can’t wait to put out my album, tour, then come home and have our first baby.”
“That’s fucking right.” He slid his chair closer to me. “That’s what I like to hear.”
“I bet it is.” I pecked him quickly and we both looked back when the studio door opened and my producer stuck his head in.
“Uh, it’s been ten minutes,” he said.
“You ready to get back to it?” Drix asked.
“Yeah.”
“A’ight.” He hopped up. “Have a good session then, and if you need me, call me. For real.”
“I will. I promise.”
“A’ight. Love you.”
“Love you.”
We kissed quickly and Drix spun around.
“You better be taking good care of my baby in here.” He pointed at the producer who chuckled and nodded.
“The song is going to be a hit.”
“That’s what I like to hear, man.” He hit him on the back and left the room.
I slid my headset back on.
CHAPTER 15
DRIX
Ilifted a hand in triumph as I walked out of the DNA testing center and Alan and Dashawn both clapped. I was one more step to being vindicated. I’d finally gotten to take the DNA test for Monica’s baby and I was ready to pop bottles and give everyone signed to the label a bonus just because.
“I’ll be free of this stupid shit any day now,” I announced.
“Congratulations.” Dashawn hit me on the back.
“Thanks, man.” I exhaled. “I’m so glad I don’t ever have to fuck any other woman than Myome for the rest of my life,” I admitted.
Dashawn laughed.
“I tried to tell you married life was the right choice.”
“You said that shit when we were like eighteen, so I don’t even want to hear that shit.” I chuckled and waved him off. “Nobody was trying to do that wild ass shit but you.”
“But me and my baby still together and happy.”
“Yeah but Drix is talking about faithful shit. You don’t know nothing about that,” Alan pointed out.
“I don’t cheat on Hazel.” Dashawn pushed his brother roughly. “We just like to taste test different flavors together occasionally.”
“Nigga, Myome would kill me, the bitch, and herself if I even joked about some shit like that.” I pulled my phone out and shot a text to Rome to let him know I was done.
For some reason everyone wanted to be updated on this shit even though it wasn’t that big of a deal. He and Merch had a tour starting soon but he was worried about what I had going on.
