That's Life

"I'm trying to find an outfit to match Safaree's Galaxy Wolf shirt."

"Where are you guys going?"

"To his store opening, you didn't get your invite?"

"Oh, yeah, I can't come. I thought he told you?"

"Neeq? Really?"

"I know, Nika, but I already had a date planned for this night."

"I told you to clear out your schedule for the month. Are you at least coming to our anniversary dinner?"

"Wouldn't miss it."

"Good. Your brother hides my clothes, I swear."

"Girl, with a body like yours, you shouldn't mind and he obviously doesn't."

Nicki smirked looking over at her as she sat on the end of their bed painting her toenails. Nicki walked into her side of the large His/Hers closet and peered up in the color coded clothes. Hm, UGH, I can't find the outfit. She pouted walking back into the room and smiled at Safaree having Neeq pinned down to the bed on her stomach and giggles pouring out of her. Still big ass kids.

"Faree, have you seen my high waist galaxy leggings with the matching wolf galaxy crop top?"

He stopped after pushing Neeq over and stood to his feet. He put his hand on his chin and the other on the edge of the bed thinking. She slowly inched towards him as he took a few steps back towards the bedroom door. His eyebrows furrowed.

"Oh, did you ask Mae?"

"No."

"Did you check your other closet?"

"No."

"Alright, Babe."

He replied sarcastically as she walked towards him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He lifted her up off the floor and stared into her bright eyes that looked him over. They hadn't been in each others space in two weeks because of his and her's work schedule, so they were checking each other out. Nicki leaned forward and pecked his lips and smirked feeling him slip his tongue into her mouth and deepen the kiss.

"You guys should really go to another room."

Neeq interrupted bumping against their closely pressed bodies. Nicki shook her head and laid it in the side of his neck. He spun around and followed behind Neeq as she walked towards the hall closet where Nicki's other clothes hung up. She whispered and sucked on his ear as he smirked at the stuff she was saying. Neeq pulled the door open and snatched her Galaxy outfit out that was pressed and clean from the cleaners. He grunted then pulled Nicki away from his body and placed her on the floor.

"Bye, Nic, man."

He chuckled as she reached for his leg. She pushed up off the floor and watched him run back into the bedroom. He peaked out of the slightly cracked door and threw his head back laughing at her patting her box. He slammed the door then Nicki quickly turned to Neeq, who looked at her and rolled her eyes.

"You guys are something else, I tell you. Lets get dressed."

"I thought you weren't going."

"I lied. Lets go."

She spoke over her shoulder as she dragged Nicki's outfit into the mini dressing room.

Nicki and SB watched closely as the people marched into the newly opened store that was mostly his and partly hers. She suckered him into selling some The Nicki Minaj Collection in his shop along side his line of clothes. Nicki smiled, shook he and mingled a little with the people that came through the door after the speech that she had given about him and his success and goals in the store and his growing brand.

"This is so you."

"Why you say that?"

"The large wolf on the back wall and the potrait of the woman draped in diamonds."

She answered cutting her eyes at him. He chuckled feeling her fingers pinch his skin. He leaned over towards her and whispered into her ear.

"That's you."

She looked at the woman and noticed it was actually her, but with a girly wolf head, but you could tell it was charactered after her. The pink eye shadow and lipstick, the dimples and big slanted eyes. She looked back towards the other wolf and noticed it was him. She tugged on his shirt hem and he looked over at her as she puckered her lips. He pecked her lips quickly, hoping no-one saw. She link their arms and they headed towards the cloth covered table. She picked up a few beef pig in a blanket, cookies, strawberries, pineapples and a cup of juice. She looked back to see him talking to a fair skin woman dressed in business attire then turned and headed towards their table in the back of the shop near the DJ booth. Headache nodded towards her and continued playing track after track.

"Nicki, do you know where Faree keeps the key to the safe? A customer wants one of those wolf watches?"

"They aren't on sale yet, that's why they're still in the safe and he has the keys."

"Let me go ask him."

Nicki shrugged then put a strawberry in her mouth as she watched the sea of people looking around, sampling food, picking up free kids Wolf shirts and NMC bracelets. A few people walked up to her for a picture and others just snapped pictures as she playfully and seductively ate the fruits off her plate. SB rushed passed her before she could reach for him with Rex following close behind. She furrowed her eyebrows as she watch CLS, Vak and Justin rush behind them. She hurried to her feet and followed behind all of them. She jogged a little in her heels to catch up and caught the door before he closed it. He looked her over then stepped back letting her in. He sat in his big boy and she fell into his lap. He leaned forward a little and rubbed his hands over her thighs. Something he did when he was nervous. She looked down and over at him before he began talking.

"We got two weeks to get the rest of the shipment in and Gus is talking bout he needs time to get his people together."

"So it won't be here in time?"

"No, a week late. We only have enough stuff for a week and Nic's line."

"So the guys would be short?"

"Yeah, for an extra week."

"Damn. What we gone do?"

"I'm trying to get a jet out there, but they talking bout it will be an overload."

"Shit. What about we go get it ourselves. I mean we could replace his moving men."

"NO!"

Nicki interrupted frowning deeply at him nodding in agreement. He looked at her crazy as if he was annoyed with her interruption. She frown deeper and pouted placing her legs across his lap and her arms around his neck. She leaned towards his neck and whispered.

"You just got back, stay home."

"Nic, it's just a day or two."

"You've been gone two weeks."

He sighed looking her over and back towards his friends. He knew that he wouldn't win if he argued with her and she wouldn't let him out of sight if she knew he was going to sneak out. He looked her in the face and shook his head at the frown and baby doll eyes she was doing to him. He sucked his teeth then looked up at Vak and the guys.

"Call me tomorrow and I'll know for sure what's gone happen. Friday?"

"Cool, give us time to get the trucks and maybe a plane?"

"Cool, check into that."

"Got you, don't stress, bruh."

"Acting like the male Onika."

They all cracked up as she whipped her head his way and rolled her eyes letting out a dramatic sigh then smacked her teeth. She looked at him and chuckled at the face he was making. He shook his head and rubbed her back feeling her getting comfortable in his lap. He stared into the side of her face and smiled at her finally being his after so many months and years of trying to get her to see that he was the one for her.
