Chapter 27

Lyric

I was pretty nervous, today was Trey’s birthday and I was about to perform the song I made for him. I don’t know why I’m so shaky about it. I sung in front Trey plenty of times but this time it was different. I’m basically pouring out my heart to him in front everybody we knew. It’s the most nerve wrecking thing I ever did. Trey was talking to Chris while I sauntered over to the food, my stomach growled when I saw Treys cake. It looked so delicious the baby thought so too, he was just kicking with all his might. I glanced to my left then to my right, I was in the clear. I slid my fork into the side of the cake and took a bite. “Mmmm” I said aloud. “I saw that” Fallon said behind me laughing. “Saw what” I said turning around with a grin. “Oh nothing, I didn’t see a thing” she stated with a smirk. “Like I thought, I advise you to invest in some glasses or something” I said throwing away my fork. “Whatever” she said. I watched as our friends danced and chatted, having a good time. It was getting closer to the time I have to go up there. “You ready” Fallon asked. “Uh huh” I said. “Well get your butt up there” she said giving me a slight nudge. I walked up the stage then picked up the mic, getting everyone attention. “Hi everyone, thank you all for coming to celebrate Tremaines’ birthday, as we all know Trey is an amazing singer and songwriter but he is also an amazing friend, son, boyfriend, and soon to be father” I said pointing to my belly. I looked down at all of our friends then my eyes set on Treys’, he smiled at me “I love the way you treat me like a princess, when you look at me, it makes me feel like I’m someone special. There are no words good enough to tell you how much you mean to me. So I wrote a song to express the way you make me feel” I said smiling at him. I turned to JD signaling for him to start the music.

For Real- Amel Larrieux

I can run, I can race for hours
And hours and don't stop
I can float
I can fly us to the highest mountain tops

I can breathe you, I can drink in your laugh
I can, l can live on your smile
I can trip and if I can fall into your arms
I can stay there my whole life


I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can stare, I can memorize your face
Your hands, your hair
Every part of you
I can cut off any of loose ends and not even wanna keep a few

I can speak to you so honestly
I can't even run any game
I can hear a million angels singing in my ears
When I say your name

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can't smile, can't dream like a child
Can't feel safe in this wide world without you
I can't go, can't disturb this flow
Can't begin to know what I would do

I can't see, can't find strength to be
Rather not be me without you
I can't deal, I can't even feel
Without you I'm not real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

I can live, I can love, I can be better with you
For real
I can hear, I can feel, I can see, I can tell
You are for real

The music ended and before I knew it Trey was up where I was and planted a kiss on my lips. The crowd cheered us on, we both smiled into the kiss. He pecked my lips once before he ended the kiss. Our foreheads pressed together he said, “Thank you, that was beautiful” I smiled then said, “I was hoping you would say something like that”

Trey (A month later)

Lyric and I were moving into our new home. “Honey where should I put this” I asked referring the boxes that were in my hands. “Just put them down right there” she said. I placed them down on the floor and collapsed on the couch. That was the last of them I said to myself. She put her hands on my shoulders and started to massage me. “Hmm that feels good babe” I told her kissing her fingers one by one. She reached down and kissed my shoulder and neck I moaned and pulled her head up to my lips. I pulled over her to me causing her to sit down on my lap. We continued to kiss not even taking a breath. All of the sudden my cell phone rang but I continued what I was doing. Lyric smiled into our kiss then said “Don’t you think you should answer that” “Nah they will leave a message” I said with a smile, kissing her softly again. The phone rang again “Uh…man” I whispered. She laughed and pulled away from me, I answered the phone “Yeah what’s up?” I said into the phone. “Uh huh” I said looking at Lyric. She looked at me concerned “Everything fine babe” I whispered to her. “No not you” I said into the phone. I walked into the kitchen so she couldn’t hear “What do you mean I have to leave” “My girl is pregnant” I said into the phone. “I can’t leave her” “Trey” Lyric said wobbling in the room. “Lyric I will be in there in a minute” I said to her. “Yes the money would be nice but my girlfriend and my child are more important” “Trey you should go” she said “I’m not leaving you here. What if something happens and I won’t be there for you?” “Well let’s not think like that. But if that does happen I have plenty of people to call on” “But I want to be the one” “Trey, we got to think about our family and what’s best for all of us.” I looked at her she was right “Get me on the next flight” I said before hanging up.
