Feeling Us

Nicki was on her last week break before the tour ended in late December. She decided to go visit her family and had convinced Safaree to come along. They were both now sitting in the car staring out the window. Neither saying anything just silently in their thoughts. It had been some years, since Safaree had been back in Queens and even longer for his travel through Brooklyn. He was beginning to regret letting her talk him into coming, but he was here and there was no turning back. She reached over and grabbed his hand and held it. She was nervous about seeing her family after not seeing them these last few months. She was kind of embarrassed to have Safaree meet them this way, but if he accepted her as is then he would do the same for her family. She scooted closer to him and kissed his neck. He turned to look at her and she smiled, she grabbed his face and turned his head towards the window and kissed his neck a little longer. When she was nervous, he was use to her touching him, but she was going too far. He put his hand between them and pushed her over. She shrugged and quickly scooted back over and this time, she placed her lips on his neck and sucked on his neck up to his ear which she nibbled on. He tried to focus and get her to stop, but his ear was his spot. His dick began to jump as she continued teasing him by sucking his earlobe then going to his neck. She was beyond nervous and messing with him was easing it. He placed his hand on his private area trying to push it down, but she scooted into his lap and continued her game. This time moving to his full lips. He sucked in a breath as she swallowed his bottom lip.

"Uh."

She pulled away and stared at his lips. She smiled at the look on his face. He was still in shock. She wiped his mouth with her hand then leaned back towards the cabbies front seat that was seperated by a plastic glass window. After coming back to reality, he pushed her over to the chair then closed his legs together and stared out the window even more in his thoughts than before. Nicki had made him hard just by her lips and that drove him crazy. What the fuck was she doing to him? Was she doing this on purpose, trying to break his rule that he told her was a no no. The car came to a stop and he nearly jumped out while it was moving. She watched him grab their shared suitcase and stood waiting for her with his head down. She could see him talking to himself or his friend. She walked up beside him and placed her hand on his forearm.

"I'm sorry, I was just... Nervous, I didn't think it was a big deal."

"Well, it kind of was.." He huffed looking away. He wasn't mad at her, but at himself for being hard now even at the look of her. He had to look away. She had changed their relationship in that moment. She knew exactly, what she was doing. She wanted him just as bad as he wanted her now. "Can we just go."

She nodded then they walked towards the house. He walked behind her like a puppy with his head down. He licked his lips as her plump ass came into his view. What the fuck? He thought throwing his head back, this can't be happening to me. His thought were interrupted by the door opening to Onika's twin. 

"You didn't say you had a sister?" 

He questioned looking at the lady behind the screen, who just looked at them. She looked just like her, but her gaze on them was much more warm than Nicki's gaze that she gave him. 

"I don't. This is my mommy."

"What?"

He choked on nothing but shock. Her mommy? He looked around and shook his head, this can't be her moms. The lady opened the door and pushed it open without a word. She simply let Onika in the house and as Safaree began to follow, she pulled it closed. He was taken back as she stared at him with anger now taking over her face.

"You the young man, that took my daughter away from me?"

"Ma'am, I..."

"No, mommy.. He helped me and took me away from Webb... This is Safaree. He's my manager and lawyer."

"For what?"

"My Dance Act. I told you mommy, I was going to be back once everything was better."

She stated excitedly. She placed her hand on her mothers and gently open the door for him. He was hesitant to walk in at first but her mother then pushed the door open wider with a beautiful smile on her face. Nicki looked even more like her as he stood facing them both. He extended his hand out to her, but she refused it and hugged him tightly. Nicki smiled then stepped over towards them.

"Mommy, I got you a surprise."

"What child?"

"Safaree helped me find you a new home."

"Huh? I can't move today honey... I..."

"You don't need anything, but your personal pictures and stuff, no clothes, no furniture or anything in this place. I got you guys a whole new wardrobe, silver appliances and I hired an interior decorator to come by and get your taste on how you want your home to be..."

"I can't leave your father..."

"Mommy, I did this..."

"We can get him into a rehab center that won't let him leave until he's well recovered, I have connections."

Safaree chimed in before the two ladies began to argue. He knew that was a soft spot for them both and in order for things to go both their ways.. Then he would keep the peace and help out. Nicki shook her head no, but he ignored it completely and turned to her mother.

"I promise, if he isn't back on the right track then I'll buy you this home, fix it up and you can come back here with him. Just at least go see the home Nicki bought you."

He pleaded staring at her. She smiled and grabbed his chin. She kissed his cheek then disappeared back down the hall without a word. He looked confused then looked over at Nicki, who was huffing. He shrugged at her and she rolled her eyes as she stepped up to him.

"Why did you promise her that? We've..."

"Because I keep my promises. Nicki, don't fuss at me like I'm a child."

He stated looking down at her. She moved over to the side then rolled her eyes as her mother walked back in with her two year old brother. He smiled big as he reached out to her. She grabbed him and kissed his cheeks as he squealed. Safaree walked back out the door as the limo rolled up outside the house. Her mother looked at them then shook her head, no.

"Mommy, it's fine."

"Onika, we're in NY!"

"So, you won't be here anymore. Come on and get in the car."

They sat around the furnished house after taking a tour of it. Carol loved it. Nicki loved seeing her happy. They decided to go back to the house in the morning to get their pictures and stuff because they would go out to eat tonight then retire to bed. Carol had called her eldest child and invited him to eat. Nicki walked towards the guest room and stood at the doorway watching Safaree transfer their clothes to the dresser then sat down on the bed and read over his messages.

"Are you staying to eat?"

He looked back then shook his head. She frowned as she stepped inside the room and closed the door behind her. She walked over and crawled across the bed and placed her hands around his body and placed them on his chest.

"You should really stay, for me."

"Nah, I have something to take care of plus, that thing you pulled earlier... Nic."

"I. Said. I. Was. Sorry!"

"Nicki, you crossed the line."

She huffed and pulled her arms from around him before he stood up. She frowned not being able to be held by him or have his affection was killing her. It had been five months and he still acted like he didn't like her. He looked at her and grabbed her face, pulling her lip out of her mouth.

"I'll be back in the morning before you guys go back to the old house, alright?"

"Sure." She answered emotionless. If he was going to have his wall up, then so was she.

"Fix your face, yo.. Call if you need me or whatever." He looked her over then pulled her into a hug. She wrapped her arms and legs around him and bust out laughing when he lost his balance and fell on her. They both looked up when Carol walked in to tell them that dinner was ready. She smiled then closed the door back.

"Mommy!"

Nicki called out as Safaree jumped to his feet. He fixed his clothes then walked out the door with her following close behind. She walked around him to hug her brother and his family. She had missed them all and just for them to be in the same home all together, made her happy. Safaree stood off to the side on his phone again. Nicki was annoyed by his physical presence being there, but not his mind. She snapped at him and he looked up at her as she nodded for him to come closer.

"This is my brother, Jelani, his wife Lisa and their daughters Kellsie and Leeah. This is my friend, manager and lawyer, Safaree."

He shook their hands then quickly turned back to his phone. He looked up and leaned into her and whispered "I got to go" in her ear. She waved him off and turned back to her family.

It was three in the afternoon, Safaree hadn't shown up like he said he was. Nicki was now irritated as she tried to relax in the bed. Her mother came into the room and looked up and down at her daughter, who was gloomy today. She could tell that this boy had a place in her heart and mind because all day she had complained about him not showing up. Then Jelani had showed her an article of a press statement that said they were dating and there was pictures of them hugged up and his hand on her thigh. She couldn't stand it because he had lied and said he wasn't going to do it.

"Onika, you shouldn't stress yourself over him..."

"He said he would be here. If it's not him missing my shows, it's him missing meetings or other things. He'll probably miss my wedding on purpose just to hurt me!"

She stated annoyed. She frowned as her mother laughed at her dramatics. She reached over and placed her hand on her daughters face and kissed her cheek. If she knew anything from vibes, she knew that the young man hadn't stood her up on purpose. 

"Did you try calling him? Maybe something happen..."

"Like, what? Oh my God, mommy."

She panicked grabbing her phone. She dialed him and he answered after the second ring. He didn't answer right away because he was talking to some female in the background that laughed loudly. Nicki listened harder and heard smaller voices of little girls. 

"Wassup? You need something?"

"Where are you? You said you'd be here this morning!"

"Damn, I forgot.. I'm sorry, do you still need me? I mean..."

"No. I guess you're alright... Bye."

She hung up before he could say something else. She was hurt and looked up at her mom, who was staring at her with sympathy. They both looked down at her ringing phone and his picture popped up. She ignored it not wanting to hear his lie or worse the truth. He went to visit his girl and kids. That's why he gave her the home, probably. Trying to keep her on tab. He had to know that she loved him and wanted to be with him. 

"Nicki.."

"No, mommy.. He's with his ex fiancé."

"I'm sorry, baby."

"It's fine."

She said turning over on her side. She grabbed her pillow and held it tight against her chest. She huffed hearing her phone ring again. She grabbed it and placed it to her ear. She smiled big at the voice coming through the phone.

"Bitch, we coming over! Don't move!"

"Candi!"

"See, you later!"

She laughed then sat up and looked at her smiling mother. She wrapped her arms around her neck and they both laughed.

"I knew you missed them... Plus, Safaree called earlier and said you might need company."

"Huh?"

"While you were hanging up the pictures, he called. I answered it and we had a good convo. Why didn't you tell me you guys were living together?"

"I know you didn't like the idea of me living with Webb, so..."

"He isn't Webb."

Her mother stated knowingly. Nicki's eyes bucked then rolled at her mother's statement. She smiled at her mother's approval of Safaree and their living arrangement.  

"What's his name?"

"Huh?"

"TT told us, she heard a guy in your background the day you called her upset."

TT raised an eyebrow as Nicki blushed putting the spoon in her mouth. They all laughed at the look on her face, but then their faces all snapped back towards the door when they heard a male's voice as he pushed the door open. Candi looked back at Nicki, who looked down as he came in then stopped seeing the women looking at him.

"I'll just come back later."

"No, come in... We were just talking about you." Candi stated as the girls fell out in a fit of giggles. Nicki was now blush red in the face as he made eye contact with her.

"Uh, okay.."

He rubbed the back of his neck and stepped back into the room. Candi pointed to Nicki then smiled back at him.

"You trying to fuck my friend?"

"Candi."

"I'm just asking."

"Uh, no."

"No? Why the fuck not?"

"TT!!"

"We're just friends... I'd like to keep it that way."

"It's 03" and niggas still doing the friend to get in your panties shit?"

He laughed at Candi's bluntness. He could tell Nicki was embarrassed by the look on her face, but she knew her friends. He smirked then looked back at Candi, who was still going on about niggas lying.

"I'm not that guy, but if I was feeling your friend, she wouldn't know until I want her to know."

"So you gone play with our girl's feelings? You know she feeling you..."

"I know, but who said I ain't feeling her?"

He asked looking at her as her head popped up. She smiled big exposing her dimples as her friends awed. Candi shook her head then snapped her fingers in a Z formation.

"How long you been feeling my girl? Cause that ass is mine Monday through Saturday."

He chuckled along with the girls laughing. Yo, shorty wild tho. He thought as he laid across the bed near Nicki. She smiled down into his face as he stared up at her. All of them sat on the Cali King Sized bed and talked. Of course, Candi kept directing her talk about Onika and Safaree. 

Later that night, Safaree came out of the bathroom in his pants and socks. Nicki had showered and was laying on the bed watching TV. He went over to the nightstand and looked down at his phone. Nicki looked back at him and smiled as he sat on the bed and tossed his legs up on top of the cover.

"You aren't going to sleep with me?"

"Nah, I'm sleeping on the pull out your mom put out for me."

"Faree."

"Watch the movie, yo."

He laughed at her pout. They hadn't made it official, but they both knew how the other felt. Safaree felt like Nicki wasn't ready for a relationship. Nicki was ready but she would wait for him to come around. They both knew it was because he was scared. He just wouldn't admit it to her, not yet. She grabbed his hand and pulled him close to her. He sighed knowing he wasn't going to win with her, so he pulled the covers back and got under them with her. She pressed her body against his and they both fell asleep comfortably for the first time in months.
