      Buzz buzz buzz !! The phone vibrated against Camille's arm as she had fallen asleep after getting in from work. It was Antonio's week with the girls as they spent the weekend with Mrs. Jones and Antonio's other three boys. So Camille decided to sleep in and try gaining some kind of energy back from the constant shopping she had to do between Mrs. Wing girls, her twins, Erica's girls and her friends as well. Plus Alijah although he denied wanting a gift. She just wouldn't feel right not getting him anything when he was bringing happiness to her every time they spoke. Buzz buzz buzz !! The phone went off again waking Camille out of her sleep this time being that the buzzing wouldn't stop vibrating up against her pillow. Her eyes fluttered open as it focused on the phone she then reached out before answering and turning on her back and placed the phone up against her ear. "Yes?" She hummed as her eyes slowly began to close again. "Open up the door." Alijah chuckled knowing that Camille was probably on her fifth dream by now. But being that she had an already full agenda for her and her girls both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, Alijah had a couple of plans of his own for Camille today. "I'm coming." Camille mumbled before ending their call and began to stretch her body out across the bed. Sitting up as the covers fell off Camille's bare body, Camille climbed out of the bed before wrapping herself inside of her robe. She slipped her feet inside of her slippers then made her way over to the front door. Checking the peephole, there Alijah stood holding twenty three balloons in his hand. "What is this man up to now?" Camille smirked as she unlocked the door and smiled brightly as she eyed her man. Styled in a vintage Rich Porter 1988 shirt that was slightly covered by his black Off White puffer coat, black Mike Amiri bandana jeans and his black Balenciaga track sneakers while wearing a Dirt Gang black cap on, Camille couldn't help but to stare at him in awe. He went and got a line up along with his beard that was perfectly trimmed and that cologne of his lingered all around him. "What's up? You're not going to say hi?" He smirked while opening his arms. "Yes hi Alijah. You look good and smell so good. Where are you going?" Camille questioned as she melted inside of Alijah's arms as he continued to hold her. "Where are we going? Well that's a surprise, I just need for you to get dress and slip this on for me." He directed handing over the Off White shopping bag that he held in his hands along with the balloons. "A surprise? Thank you and what's this?" Camille asked making Alijah shrug and peck Camille's lips. "I just know that you're going to look fine as hell in that dress. So can you get the dressing?" He asked slapping Camille's butt. "Yes I can. But can I have another kiss? I missed you." She asked as Alijah licked over his lips and leaned into Camille's waiting lips. "Thank you and take your coat off because I'm going to take a while." Camille warned before heading towards the back. She plugged her phone and flat iron up before grabbing her towel, shower cap and iPad. Just like every girl, Camille needed music to shower and get ready for the day. She took herself a nice hot and steamy shower before coating her skin with the Tubby Todd's peppermint lotion then slipped on her black lace thong and matching bra. Digging inside of the bag, Camille started to smile as she spotted the Off White Virgil Abloh knit long sleeve Angel black dress and the matching black open toed heels to match. "He's such a sweetheart." She gushed before taking a seat at her vanity mirror. Camille worked on her hair then her make up knowing the occasion was special being that he had went all out for her outfit. "Cami!" Alijah called her name as he walked over to her bedroom as she slipped into her dress. "Yes?" She asked while pulling her dress down and adjusted the sleeves. "I was coming to see if you was almost ready." He said bringing a smile to Camille's face. "Thank you and you didn't have to, I have tons of dresses that I haven't even worn yet." Camille said while slipping her left foot inside of her shoe then done the same with the right before standing up straight. "No I didn't, but I wanted to. Come here with your fine ass." Alijah demanded causing Camille to giggle and do as told. "Yes Alijah?" She asked wrapping her arms around his torso and looked up into his hooded eyes. "I missed you. How was work today? What you do?" Alijah asked rubbing his hands through Camille's hair. "I miss you more and today was a wreck. I was sent out to shop for the girls with my other two co workers and I hated it. I didn't enjoy myself at all then had to come back and deal with the girls as they were super moody. How was work for you?" Camille asked taking off Alijah's hat and smiled. She enjoyed the pullback box braids, but seeing Alijah's hair freshly braided always warmed Camille's body up. "It was crazy Ma, you should've seen how crazy these boys were going over getting seat." Alijah chuckled. This was honestly his most busiest month for him and he couldn't wait for it to be over already. "You know they need their little fresh hair cuts." She laughed before pecking Alijah's lips. "You ready to go? We're kinda on a scheduled timing." Alijah smirked causing Camille to smile and raise a brow. "Oh. Are we? But yes I'm ready. We could go." Camille hummed grabbing her phone and bag before walking towards the front and slipped on her black leather jacket. "You're going to freeze, it's okay put on your bubble coat Killa." Alijah chuckled as Camille slipped on her bag and admired herself in the mirror. "I'll be fine, as long as I'm around you. You know how to make me hot as hell." Camille flirted causing Alijah to chuckle. He grabbed the balloons and Camille's hand before heading out of the door. They listened to music the whole way there and when it was time to get out, Camille's eyes was covered with a blindfold. "Awe I'm excited! I love surprises but I'm shaking as well!" She cooed while holding onto Alijah's hand as he lead the way inside of the hall. "You're going to love it." Alijah chuckled. They made their way inside of the hall before he let her hand go and counted down from three. "Three. Two. One. Happy birthday Camille!!" Everyone shouted as the blindfold was taken off of her face. "Awe Babe you did this for me?" Camille whimpered. The place was stunning as his and her friends stood around under the royal blue strobe lights with different kind of champagnes in their hands, Camille couldn't help but to let the water works go. "Don't cry, it's only the beginning. Come on birthday girl time to turn up." Alijah smiled as he wrapped his arm around a teary eyed Camille and pecked her forehead. "Thank you, I love it." She sniffle before dabbing at her eyes then cupped his face. "Whew hopefully we could get twin boys this time!!" Tori shouted causing Camille to laugh and break their kiss. "Not making no promises." Alijah joked causing Camille to smile and shake her head. She grabbed a hold of Alijah's hand and went to greet both of their friends. "I thought you was tough?! What happened bro?!" Alijah's friend, Demarcus teased causing Camille to laugh and point his way. "Don't start your shit! It's my birthday!" She laughed and was pulled into a hug by her girls. "You really look like a bad bitch! DJ please play my baby mother fucking song please?!" Itali shouted as the highly favored song, Birthday Bitch came on and Camille laughed. She didn't want to dance all wild being that Alijah's friends were there. So she danced a little before scoping out the rest of the party and the menu as it was based on all Camille's favorite food — both finger and meals. Alijah had even bought her a cake and there was a gift table present as well. "I love it, best friend you helped him out didn't you?" Camille blushed as she turned Isabelle's way. She nodded her head before giggling and spinning Camille around in a circle. "You bet I did and almost cried when he asked for my help!" She sang making Camille laugh. "Thank you Issy, you know me so well."  She smiled glancing around the room in awe.
