Chris POV
_______________________________________________
She needs me.

          Laying Royal down in her crib, I kiss her forehead as she sleeps peacefully.

I have Royal for the week since her mom was going on some trip, I was more than happy to keep my baby.

Grabbing her empty cups, I go to the sink and wash them. To say it's been a crazy couple of weeks was an understatement

I was on Twitter yesterday just lurking as I always do and Team Breezy directed a TMZ article to my attention.

August was cheating on Marian. I was gonna call her but I said I would give her sometime, that's still my best friend regardless of what went down

I finish washing the dishes and I put them up in the dishwasher. Royal should be out for a couple hours, so I'm gonna do what I do best, PAINT

Walking into my art room I keep the door open just in case Royal wakes up, I grab an empty egg carton placing metallic paint in each egg holder.

I grab a small, medium, and large paintbrush along with a couple of paper towels and lay them down next to the Easel.

I start painting

15 minutes later

In the middle of me painting my phone goes off and sigh, shit really had me intrigued

Wiping my hands on the paper towel I pull of my phone out of my pocket and press the answer button without looking at who it is first

The person I hear on the other end shocks me but sends a rage of emotions through my body

"Marian?" Clutching my phone tighter in my hand. I missed her voice already

"What's wrong baby? Why do you sound like that?" I ask

"I need you Chris" her voice comes out horse as if She's been crying "I need my best friend"

By this time I was long out the art room and in Royals packing her a bag

"Are you at home? I'm on my way" I ask

"No I'm at the hospital, it's August" I run a hand over my face, well this is complicated

He was my nigga at one time, I try to shake off my sadness as I continue the phone conversation

"At VA hospital? Is he ok?" I ask, sincerely conceded

"Yes, please hurry up I just want to hug my best friend" Marian continues

"I'll be there in 15 minutes. I love you"

Shit, why did I say that? At this time, it just slipped. The truth is I really do love Marian she was my first and I will always have love for her

"I love you too" and with that she hangs up the phone

I grab Royal placing her in my arms and out two bags as I place them in the backseat and her in her car seat, I buckle her up

Running back to the house I make sure it's locked as I jump in the passengers seat.

"Daddy" I hear Royal say sleepily
"It's ok, go back to sleep baby girl" I tell her

I guess she does, because I don't hear her for a while. I listen to a little Tyrese to help clear my mind

He wasn't helping, if anything he made me want to do some intimate things to Marian and I just couldn't

We finally pull up to the hospital and I park in the visitor parking. I text Marian and ask her the room number before I go And get royals stroller

I place her in there, getting all her things and mine as I walk towards the hospital pushing her

I hate to see my nigga on that bed just laying there now moving, and to see Marian in so much pain.
