Royalty POV

Ever since Yaté has been here things have been EXTREMELY different! I'm limited to sleep due to the fact he wakes up every thirty minutes to a hour at night hungry or ready to play. It was most definitely a change for me and the fact Qua can sleep through it all and not hear a thing pisses me off! I mean he sleeps in the same room as us and he sleeps without a care in the world.. if only he knew what I go through

"Hey baby" Qua kissed my cheek opening the fridge

"Hey" I spoke dryly

"What's wrong wit you?"

Did this nigga...

"I'm tired!! Your son kept me up last night.. every thirty minutes crying! Then to top it all off he wakes up at 6 this morning wanting to play and didn't go back to sleep till a hour ago and the fact you slept through it all.." I shook my head

"Oh, I'm sorry baby I must have been knocked out" He shrugged

"Like all the other nights.. Qua you haven't been much help since he's been here.. your always in the studio, at a party or sleeping"

"Being in the studio and going to parties is how I make money so you can live in this nice ass house I bought.. I don't understand why you're acting brand new about this. You knew what it was when you married me and got pregnant"

"I know that I'm just asking for your help! I shouldn't have to even ask.. I didn't make this baby alone" I sighed

"I know that.. just chill out" He walked out

"Chill out!! Are you serious?!" I followed behind him. "How do you expect me to chill out and you walk around here like you don't even have a damn kid!"

"Royalty, you really about to get on my nerves.. I said I'll do my part alright? Just get off my back"

Ugh! I don't get this new attitude he's had lately! It's like he's happy one minute and then irritated by the smallest shit next.. last time he acted like that he was fucking around but he wouldn't do that again.. I know he wouldn't!

I went to the laundry room and finished up my chores for the day before I could finally lay down. Yaté was still sound asleep which was perfect! That meant I could get some rest! I laid across the bed and sleep immediately took over!

I heard Yaté crying and Qua trying to get him quiet I decided to give Quavious a taste of his own medicine and pretend to be sleep and let him witness first hand what I have to go through with him when he's sleeping like a baby

"Ro.. Royalty" He shook me

I turned over and started snoring exactly the way he does when I'm trying to wake him up.. it's time he gets a actual taste of parenthood.

After awhile I got up and took Yaté who had tears coming down his little face. I must admit even when he was crying he was still adorable.

"Okay baby" I sat back on the bed pulling down the strap to my tank top and begin to feed him

"That's all he wanted?" He raised his brow

"Babies get hungry to" I smirked.

"Look.. okay I understand what you have to go through now" He sighed sitting on the edge of the bed

"No.. I don't think you do.. You only had him for fifteen minutes before I got him.. I think you should try having him for the whole weekend by yourself without any help for you to completely understand"

"I'm sorry.. I'll try to do better"

I nodded and focused back on Yaté who was no finished. I fixed myself and begin to burp him while he gummed on his bib

"You mind cooking dinner tonight?"

"Nahh.. in fact I'll make your favorite" He kissed my head walking out the room

I really hope he gets it together soon

Quavious POV

I got out of bed and got Yaté since he was up and ready to play. I knew Royalty was tired and what she said earlier really had me thinking.. I should do my part more the way I need to.. it's not like she made Yaté alone and I made a commitment to be there for her and Yaté.

"Alright lil man.. let daddy show you the best game of all time!" I turned on the tv and my Xbox grabbing 2k

I sat on the couch laying him in my arm where he could see the tv while I played. It felt good to bond wit my lil man.. it's like he understood everything I was saying

"You know.. mama is pretty is upset wit me. I know I haven't been the best daddy to you but imma try to get it right.. you know I never had that father figure around and I don't want you to go down that same road.. I want you to have me in your life, but I want you to finish high school.. achieve your dreams and always make sure to secure the bag no matter where you go in life! Then you'll meet a girl that'll be by your side no matter what.. support you thru thick and then.. the same way your mom did wit me" I smiled a little

"Looks who's bonding" Royalty smiled standing in the doorway

"How long have you been there?"

"Long enough to hear you talk about me.. Yaté's future.. your dad" She sat by me placing her legs in my lap taking Yaté

"I mean I was telling him the truth.. I have a amazing woman that I'm taking for granted" I paused the game giving her my attention. "And I feel so terrible for treating you the way I have"

"Baby we can get past this..."

"That's not what I'm talking about" I sighed

"Then what are you talking about?" She raised her brow looking at me

"For the past few weeks I've been talking to..."
