I was sitting up on the couch with my legs in crisscross applesauce as I scrolled through my Emails on my MacBook Pro. I gently pushed my glasses up on my face before looking up when I heard footsteps against the wooden stairs.

I smiled when Isaiah made his way to me before plopping down on the bed and sighing.

"She tired you out didn't she?" I chuckled looking at him as he threw his head back against the back of the couch before looking over at me nodding his head.

"Shittt she be having me on a roll" he said making me chuckle and shake my head. He tucked her in bed tonight since she asked him to and he happily said yea while I sat downstairs answering a few Emails.

Music played lowly through the speakers that were installed throughout the house as we started winding down for the night.

"How has work been these past few days" I asked glancing over towards him as he scooted closer to me tapping my legs for me to uncross them. He grabbed my legs throwing it over his and gently rubbing from my tighs all the way to my white toes.

"It's been ight I guess. I finished drawing the plans weeks ago so now all we need to do execute it" He said as I stared at him while he spoke. I loved staring at him at random times just admiring his features. He is so pretty in my eyes.

"You're so handsome papa" I blurted out as he looked over at me and his face broke into a smile showcasing his pearly white teeth.

"Thank you baby" he said before puckering his lips and I slightly leaned down due to him being leaned back and I pecked his lips before taking his bottom lip between mine. My hand softly gripped around his chin as we kissed for a little while before pulling away.

Here And Now by Luther Vandross played throughout the house and he gently grabbed my legs, placing them on the floor before standing up and extending his hand for me to grab.

"Cm'on stop playing" he chuckled when I looked between him and his hand and started giggling. I placed my laptop to the side before putting my hand in his as he lifted me up to stand with him.

He walked away going to dim the lights before walking back over towards me as I watched him with a smile. He gently pulled me closer towards him, wrapping his arms around my waist while mine snaked around his neck and he held my other hand in his.

We started swaying side to side to the rhythm of the song as I felt him staring at me intently but I ignored his gaze, looking everywhere but at him. It was no doubt that he made me nervous everytime we're together and he knows it.

"Look at me" he spoke lowly in his deep, raspy voice making a shiver run down my spine as I still avoided his gaze.
