All About The Benjamin's by Teasha Adams (crime books to read TXT) 📖

We arrived at the studio about an hour later.
I was dress in a see through cream colored button down shirt, and a pair of burgandy true religion skinny jeans. On my feet I wore a pair of nude colored pumps. The make-up artist has given me nude make-up so it didn't look like I was wearing make-up. My hair was straightened down my back and curled on its end to reveal my blonde extensions underneath. I thought I looked pretty good.
Devon the other hand was wearing a white no limits entertainment t-shirt, and a pair of dark denim straight legged jeans. He had on a fresh pair of bred 11's and a matching red snapback. Around his neck he had on three diamond chains and a matching rolex.
I was done with my make-up, so I stood next to Devon as they put make-up on his face. He didn't need much but he still had to wear it.
I smiled and winked at him.
"Yo' this is crazy." He said, grinning back at me through the mirror.
The make-up artist moved out the way to examine her work. Once she was satisfied with the results, she stepped away. We had about ten minutes until we went on set.
Devon pulled me closer to him, positioning me between his legs. "You ready?"
"Yeah, I guess so." I kissed Devon on his forehead, watching as he massaged my swollen tummy with his hands.
Devon giggled. "I can feel the baby moving around in there."
I giggled. "It feels like I have butterflies in my tummy."
"I love you so much." Devon looked up me.
I kissed him softly.
"Okay, you two cut it out." I heard Carlos say.
"Hey."
Carlos sat down next to Devon, examining hisself in the mirror. "Kissing leads to pregnancy." He pointed at my stomach.
I frowned. "Ahehehe nothin'."
Devon let me go.


Devon

"Next on stage is hip hops most talked about couple, give it up for Devon and his girlfriend Lyric."
The crowd clapped as Devon and I came on set. Devon held my right hand and I waved with the left one.
The host, Jolina Johnson, greeted us both with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you for having us." I said.
"No, thank you." She said. "It seems like you two are everywhere nowadays."
Devon grinned. "I hope its in a good way."
The audience laughed.
"So tell us about this rumor," She started. "Are you two having your first child together."
I nodded my head. "Yeah, we are."
"Girl or boy?"
"We don't know." We both answered at the same time.
She smiled. "So hows your older daughter doing Devon."
Devon smiled. "She's fine. She's in that phase where she copies everything I do." He paused, "It's great seeing her smile."
"I know the feeling." She turned to me. "Tell us about life now that you're pregnant. I heard you dropped out of school."
"Life is still the same." I answered honestly. "Its true, I did drop out of school. My life has to be devoted to this baby that I'm carrying and I didn't think I would be able to take care of a baby and go to school."
Jolina looked at me and nodded her head. "Now, I heard that you recently lost your grandmother. How have you been handling that whole situation?"
I promised myself I wouldn't cry at the mention of my grandmother. I looked over at Devon.
"I understand if you don't want to talk about it." Jolina said.
"I'm sorry." I said. "Ummm I umm been trying hard to deal with it. My parents died when I was six, so my grandmother was the only family that I had left."
"Don't you have a sister?"
I nodded my head. "I do have a sister. but she's only my half sister. We don't have the same mom and dad."
The interviewer turned towards Devon. "We've been trying to get an interview with you since your album dropped. How has that been going?"
Devon smiled. "Good. I haven't been able to leave the country yet, but hopefully one day I will."
"I'm glad you haven't left the country. That way I can watch you."
Jolina laughed. "You hear that ladies, Devon is off limits."

Chapter Four: My Baby

Devon

"Lyric, this is actually a good shot of you." Devon said from behind the camera. Me and Lyric were doing a photo shoot in Miami along with shooting my new music video. Ever since we announced that we were having a baby, almost every magazine company wanted to write a story about us.
The last picture Lyric took was actually pretty good. She was dressed in a light blue denim button down shirt and a pair of black jeggings. On her feet she wore a pair of five inch ruby red stilettos. She had her right hand on her stoomach and her foot on top of a baby carseat. She wasn't looking at the camera. She was looking behind her almost as if somebody was watching her.
Her hair was crimped in loose wavy curls and it was blown back behind her so you could see her facial structure.
Lyric smiled and me and waved. I blew her a kiss back.
"Okay Lyric, we're done." The photographer said.
She ran over to the camera and took a seat on my lap. "Can I see the picture?" She asked.
He showed her the picture.
"I look so--mommyish."
I kissed her on her cheek. "You are a mommy." I rubbed her stomach and kissed her again.
"Okay, Devon you ready?" He asked, as the crew members got set up for the video shoot.
I nodded my head. "I'm ready."
Lyric gave me a thumbs up and took my seat beside the director.
________________________________________________________________________________________________

When we got back to the hotel room, Lyric laid down almost immediatly. She said she was tired and she wanted to lay down. I understood her dilemma cause she had them heels on all day, and we had been at the studio all day. I didn't really see why she still wanted to wear heels anyways. If she knows her back and feet bother her all day, then why wear uncomfortable shoes.
While, she slept, I got on my laptop so I could skype with December. Gossip been leaving her at my house a lot, so she's always with my mom. I don't know whats been going on with Gossip lately but she been acting real foolish. One minute she hate me, and she don't want me to see my daughter. Next minute, she swear she in love with me. Not that I care about her feelings, its just that I get pretty annoyed sometimes when a female start acting crazy over something that's not even serious.
I typed in my name on Google, and the first thing that popped up was my biography. I clicked on it, just to be curious, and read it.
