"Do it." Zayn urged.

Normani looked down and pursed her lips.

"I can't believe it. Normani Kordei backing down."

"I am not!"

"Then do it already."

"I am too frickin old for this shit."

"Hey! No cussing in front of the kid!" He yelled back with a dropped brow.

Michelle looked up at him with the same dropped brow. "It's not anything I haven't already heard. I do watch cable television you know."

"Little rock star right there." He chimed with a smile, delivering a fist bump to his daughter. Normani looked at Lauren's mini-me and shook her head. No way would she ever let Zayn procreate again. He was bad enough by himself, but now she knew about this little hell-raiser. Not a chance. "So are you going to do it or not?"

Normani hesitated.

"Like I said. Normani Kordei is backing down. She's lost her cool and has finally accepted that she's not the shit anymore."

"No. I just need another drink."

The man grinned and handed her another shot off of the small table.

"Can I have one?" Michelle asked curiously.

Zayn looked at her for a second as if he was actually considering it and Normani slapped him. "In about eleven years kiddo. Now do it."

The dark beauty bit her bottom lip and closed her eyes. "I can't."

"I knew it!"

"Oh, shut up!"

"It's not like Camila is here to see it. I could understand not wanting to do it then."

"God, fine! Okay?"

Zayn clapped his hands together and rubbed them back and forth in victory before he handed Normani a cup. "On three. One. Two. Three!"

"Do you know where Lauren is?" Clara asked as she walked into the couple's kitchen where Dinah was sitting on the counter talking with Ariana, telling her about her latest dream that left the brunette ready to have a drink herself. It didn't matter that it was only three in the afternoon.

"She's outside getting yelled at," Dj answered with a beaming smile.

Both of the older women furrowed their brows. "Why?"

"She's letting a man move in and Adrianne isn't happy about it. Maybe she thinks Lauren is going straight."

Ariana's brow remained down while Clara relaxes the tension in her face. "No. Lauren's dad may be moving to New York, not in here."

"In where?"

"Here. This apartment."

"What about it?"

"What about what?"

"You said the apartment."

"Right. He's not moving in the apartment."

"Is he moving in with Adrianne then?"

Clara stopped and stared at Dinah who was completely serious. "No."
