The
show was almost over when another commercial break interrupted the show. Nicki
had been siting between Drake and Wayne all night and had been having a great
time. Seeing Drake again brought back the memories that she loved. Earlier in
the show both Drake and Nicki won an award. As promised, Nicki went onstage
with Drake and congratulated him. Safaree had been watching them all night. As
they started up another conversation Safaree could feel his anger bulling
inside him. He was jealous that Nicki hadn't even bothered to sit next to him.
He looked over at Nicki who was giggling at whatever Drake was whispering in
her ear. He was about to get up and say something ignorant when the announcer
said they would be back on air in 30 seconds. He thought carefully and decided
to use that time to calm himself down.
After
Taylor Swift closed the show with her performance Drake and Nicki made it back
stage to her dressing room. This had to be the best night she'd had in a long
time. Nicki locked the door behind her and sat down on the couch with Drake. He
was daydreaming and admiring her face with her striking features. All he could
think about was being able to wake up to that beautiful face every morning.
Especially with no make up because that’s when he thought she was most
beautiful.
“Whacha
thinkin about?” Nicki asked as she snapped him out of his thoughts.
“Oh
umm… so I was wondering if we could maybe... catch up sometime.” Drake said
while rubbing the back of his head.
“Well
I go back on tour in a week.”
“Soon
maybe?”
“Of
course. I’m always open to spending time with my husband.”
Drake
grinned at her response. Cool, is tomorrow night okay?”
“Perfect.
So, where are you taking me sir?” Nicki asked in her British accent.
“That’s
for me to know and you to find out.”
Oh,
look who’s trying to be a bad boy.” Nicki cooed while gently pinching his
cheeks. Drake put his hand over hers and they gazed into each other’s eyes. It
was almost as if they were connected. Nicki felt butterflies in her stomach and
turned away blushing. Just then a yawn took over her body.
“Tired?”
Drake asked.
“Yea,
I don’t even know how I’m gonna make it to my limo.” She said, stretching her
arms. Nicki looked over at Drake and batted her eyelashes while poking out her
bottom lip.
“Is
that so?” Drake asked, knowing exactly what she wanted.
“Yep…
well?”
“Well
what?”
“Weeell?
“I
don’t read minds Nicki.” She held out her arms and he figured he’d let her
slide this time. He picked her up bridal style and spun her around. “Where to?”
“My
limo.”
“Nic,
peope will see us.”
“No,
everyone’s gone to the after party by now.”
“You
don’t wanna go?”
“No,
I’m too tired.” She said resting her little head on his muscular chest. “Get to
steppin Mr. Graham.”
Nicki
was right. There was hardly anyone outside when they got there. It was almost
deserted. It might have been quiet if it weren’t for the constant
booming coming from what Nicki guessed was her limo. Drake put her down as they
neared the noisy limo. The chauffer opened the door for Nicki to reveal six
slutty looking girls with Safaree inside. Nicki was furious.
Safaree
looked up when he finally noticed her. “Oh, what up Nic. I didn’t see you
there.”
“Safaree.
Get these thirsty lookin hoes outta my limo so I can go home.” Nicki was
holding back the anger but it was clear in her voice. That and annoyance.
“No
can do Nic. See, were going to the after party. Me and all my girls.” He said
stretching his arms around two of them.
Nicki
was so angry she couldn’t stand it. He couldn’t be serious. She was on the
verge of exploding. Drake noticed her body language and bent down to whisper in
her ear. “I can take you home you want.”
Nicki
turned to him and hugged him. He walked her over to his car and told the driver
the location.
“WELL
GOODBYE TO YOU TOO!” Safaree yelled from across the lot.
“Freaking
asshole.” Nicki muttered under her breath.
As
the duo slid into the car, she felt the tears coming. How could Safaree play
her like that? First he’s dead serious about wanting to get back together then
he invited a group of hoes to party in the limo that she paid for. What did he
have to offer her anymore? Safaree seemed to be getting more useless everyday.
Then there was Drake. The sweet hearted guy that had always been there for her
no matter what.
“Hey
Nika don’t cry.” Drake said as a stray tear slid down her face. He brushed it
away with his thumb and brought her close to his chest. He couldn’t stand
seeing her cry, especially over someone as stupid as he thought Safaree was. He
rubbed her back and tried to clam her down.
“Thank
you Aubrey.”
“For
what.”
“For
always being there for me… and never hurting me.”
“I
would never hurt you Nicki. I love you too much to do that to you.”
“But
you don’t mean that.” Nicki stated sadly.
“What
are you talking about? I mean everything I say to you.”
“You
say you love me but you don’t love me the way I think I love you.”
“I
think I do.”
Nicki
lifted her head to look at him. “Really?”
“Really.”
He assured her.
“Are
we talking about he same thing?” Nicki questioned.
“We’re
definitely talking about the same thing.”
“So
you love me.” Nicki asked grinning.”
“More
than that. I’m in love with you.”
“I
think I am too.”
“Think?”
“I
don’t know what I’m feeling right now.” Nicki said, looking down again.
“That’s
okay for now. As long as your mine and I’m yours.” Drake said lifting her chin
to look at him.
“Is
it really that simple?” In that instant Drake leaned down to place a soft kiss
on her lips. Nicki deepened the kiss when she snaked her tongue into his mouth.
As they pulled apart Drake looked deep into Nicki’s Eyes.
“It really is.”
