Paul
whispered
in
her
ear.
 
"Not
nearly
as
beautiful
as
you."
 

Logic
pretended
not
to
notice
or
care
as
he
slapped
hands
with
Teddy
and
gave
him
some
dap.
 
"What's
up
man?
 
It's
good
to
see
you."

"Not
much
man.
 
Good
to
see
you
too."
 
Teddy
replied
before
turning
his
focus
back
to
Queen.
 
I
have
something
for
you
too
Mye
Queen."

"Hey
Teddy
Bear.
 
What
do
you
have
for
me?"
 
Queen
asked
as
she
hugged
him
and
kissed
him
on
his
lips
as
well.

Teddy
reached
in
his
jacket
pocket
and
pulled
out
a
Sugar
Daddy
caramel
sucker.
 
"I
know
how
much
you
love
them.
 
I
got
it
when
we
stopped
in
Virginia.
 
Oh
yeah
and
I
got
you
this
too."
 
Teddy
said
as
he
handed
Queen
a
small
gift
bag.
 
Inside
was
a
small,
delicate,
crystal
Teddy
Bear
figurine,
which
was
holding
a
red
crystal
heart.

"Oh,
it

s
so
cute.
 
Thank
you
Bear.
 
I
love
it."
 
Queen
said
as
she
hugged
him
again.
 
"This
was
sweet
of
you."
 

"Queen,
I
thought
I
heard
you
two
come
in.
 
I
told
them
that
you'd
be
home
any
minute.
 
They
just
got
here
a
little
while
ago."
 
Queen's
mother
said
as
she
emerged
from
the
kitchen
with
a
tray
of
lemonade.

"How
did
you
know
where
I
lived?"
 
Queen
asked
completely
shocked
to
see
them.

"Jade
showed
us."

"Jade's
with
you?"
 
Logic
asked
as
he
greeted
Paul
and
gave
him
some
dap.
 
Oddly
enough,
both
Paul
and
Teddy
seemed
genuinely
happy
to
see
Logic.
 
Well
at
least
for
now.

"Yeah,
she
rode
up
with
us."
 
Paul
replied.

"The
real
question
is,
what
are
you
doing
here?"
 
Queen
asked
as
she
helped
her
mother
with
the
tray
of
cold
lemonade.

"We
missed
you.
 
So
we
gassed
up
the
Escalade
and
here
we
are."
 
Paul
explained.

"So
where
is
Jade?"
 
Queen
asked.

She
didn't
have
to
wait
for
an
answer
as
Jade
emerged
from
the
powder
room.
 

"Thank
God
we
got
here
when
we
did.
 
I
was
about
to
bust.
 
I
couldn't
have
held
it
another
second."

"You
missed
me
that
much,
huh
trick?"
 
Queen
joked.

"Oh
my
God
Queen!
 
When
did
you
get
here?"
 
Jade
exclaimed
as
she
rushed
over
and
hugged
her
best
friend.
 
"Look
at
you.
 
You're
actually
glowing
you
look
so
good."

"I
guess
a
little
rest
and
relaxation
will
do
that
for
you."
 
Queen
replied
as
she
casually
turned
the
diamond
on
her
engagement
around
to
the
palm
of
her
hand.
 
"You're
talking
about
me.
 
Look
at
you
looking
all
divalicious.
 
I
love
those
shoes."

"I
got
them
on
sale
at
Bare
Feets.
 
You
know
we
have
to
go
shopping
while
I'm
here."

"You
know
it.
 
Who
drove?"
 
She
asked
looking
at
Paul
who
hadn't
taken
his
eyes
off
of
her.

"I
drove
the
first
leg
and
then
Teddy
brought
it
in.
 
It's
about
a
seven
hundred
mile
drive
from
Atlanta."
 
Paul
responded
with
a
smile.

"You
don't
have
to
tell
me
that's
why
we
flew
in."
 
Queen
laughed.

"I
didn't
know
you
were
going
with
her."
 
Paul
addressed
Logic.

"Last
minute
decision.
 
I
thought
she
could
use
some
company.
 
She's
been
a
little
down
lately.
 
Besides
I
had
to
come
home
and
check
on
my
folks."
 
Logic
casually
answered
as
he
took
a
ring
side
seat
across
the
room
so
that
he
could
watch
the
drama
unfold.

"Oh
yeah?"
Teddy
asked.
 
"She
looks
pretty
happy
now.
 
With
emphasis
on
the
pretty.
 
You
look
good
Mye
Queen."

"That
she
does."
 
Paul
agreed.

"I'm
glad
you
fellows
find
her
so
attractive.
 
I'd
like
to
think
that
I
had
a
little
to
do
with
that."
 
Queen's
dad
interjected
as
he
entered
the
family
room.
 
"Hi
I'm
Queen's
dad,
Robert.
