Drakes POV:
I would never think in a million years that Jason would put Onika and Armani out like this. This really hurt me that a beautiful woman like this have to go through something so cruel. I looked at the bruises she had on her face and how hurt she looked. I grabbed her hand led her to the sofa in front of my fire place and said "Sit right here , I'm coming right back."
I ran upstairs to my room to get my phone and some blankets for her and Armani. When I came back downstairs she was sitting in the same spot with Armani snuggled to her chest sleep under the wet jacket. I helped Nicki take the wet jacket off and laid Armani right beside her , I put the blanket over Armani and put one around Nicki's body.
I sat at the sofa across from her and said "Can you please tell me what happen?" She looked at me and then looked down at her hands as the tears fell from her face. I walked over to where she was sitting and kneeled down in front of her , I gently lift her head so that I could look into her eyes and said "Onika I'm not going to hurt you or Armani , I just want to help you. But I can't if you don't tell me what happened."
Nicki's POV:
I could tell from his eyes that he was being honest and sincere , but what if he set me up and tell Jason. Then I'm really going to be dead and who's going to watch over my child?
But something in me kept telling me I could trust him , I looked over at Armani and back at Drake and said "Do you promise not to call Jason and tell him that I'm here?"
He grabbed my other hand and said "I promise you can trust me just please tell me what happened." I took a deep breath and said
"Well I was at work at my office today and I had extra stuff to do and my manager called for a emergency meeting. Usually I get off at 8:30 , but by me going to the meeting and finishing up the extra stuff I had to do , I got home at 11:30. So when I got home , he asked me what took so long and why I'm home so late and I told him. He didn't believe me and then he lashed out on me. He start to beat on me and didn't finish until he heard Armani's cries. When I could finally get up off the floor, I went to Armani's room closed the door and locked it , picked her up and then I climbed out the window."
By the time I finished telling Drake what happened, I was hysterically crying. He pulled me up off the sofa and hugged me tightly while saying everything was going to be okay.
Drakes POV:
When Nicki finished telling me what happen , all I wanted to do was kill Jason. I looked down at her and said "Tomorrow we're going to get some of you and Armani's things , the both of you are going to stay with me."
She let me go while shaking her head and said "No drake I don't think I can do that, if he sees me with you or know that I'm moving out he will kill me."
I grabbed both sides of her face gently and said "Onika I'm not letting you and Armani go back to live with him so he could hurt you two , I have plenty space here for you two , so both of you are living with me now."
She looked at me and said "Okay , all I want to do is shower and get some rest now." I looked at her and said "My room is upstairs at the right , I'll lay Armani down in my nieces room."
Nicki then turned around and said "Your nieces stay here with you?" I shook my head and said "No they have a room so when they spend time with me."
She then walked off upstairs and into my room. I gently picked Armani up and carried her upstairs to my nieces room. I laid her down carefully not to wake her and then I turned on the monitor and night light and quietly closed the door. I walked into my room and changed really quick into my shorts and OVO shirt. I laid on the bed and then watched television until Nicki came out the bathroom.
Nicki's POV:
I stepped into the shower and let the hot steam soothe my body. I made sure to wash all of Jason's touch away from my body , I stayed in the shower until the water eventually got cold and then I got out. When I got out the shower I dried myself off with a gold towel and then used the lotions on the counter top to lotion myself up with. When I was finished I wrapped the towel around my body and opened the door ,"Drake do you have something I could wear?" I said. He got up from his bed and came into the bathroom so he could go to his closet so he could find something for me to put on.
He then gave me some boxers that was to small for him to wear and a black OVO shirt. He stared at me for a good 10 minutes and said "You're so beautiful." I looked down at my hands and said "Thank You." He walked over to me and lift my head while saying "You're to beautiful to have your head down , when you put this on call me back in here so I can rub the Cocoa Butter on your face." I nodded my head and said "Okay."
When I was finished I called Drake back into the bathroom and he picked me up and gently placed me on the counter top.
Drakes POV:
I reached into the medicine cabinet and got the Coca butter stick out so I can put some on Nicki's bruises. I gently rubbed the stick if Coca butter over every bruise and then massaged it in. After I was finished I picked her up from the counter top and place her on her feet. She looked at me and said "Thank you for everything , it really means a lot." I hugged her and said "No problem no woman should go through this."
We then pulled away from each other and then walked into my bedroom. I looked at her and said "Okay beautiful , I'm going to head to the guest room now, is it anything that you need?" She looked at me with a pout and said "You don't have to go this is your bed and it's still raining outside and I'm scared." I then looked at her and said "Are you scared to sleep in here by yourself?"
She nodded her head with a pout and then patted the other side of the bed. I chuckled and got in the bed with her leaving a lot of space between us so she wouldn't fell uncomfortable.
Nicki's POV:
We laid in comfortable silence until a big cackle of thunder came out of no where , I whispered and said "Drake can you hold me please?" He gently pulled me back against him and wrapped his arms around me. When he did that I felt so protected and drifted right off to sleep.
Drakes POV:
When I heard her light snores i kissed her forehead and eventually went to sleep thinking about how my future would be with her.
