Chapter 4: I Like What I Got At Home

(Safaree's POV)

I woke up to weirdest dream. I mean it was a very good dream, almost real. I dreamed that me and Nic were finally in  relationship. If she only knew how much I adore her and love her. I need to go eat, a coon is starving!

(3rd Person POV)

SB unwrapped himself from the satin sheets, and headed down to the kitchen in nothing but boxers on. "Good morning, Nic." Safaree said looking Nicki up and down. "Morning to you too babe, even with your morning breath." Nicki joked. Babe? Since when was I her babe? Safaree fixed Nicki and himself some coco puffs and sat down at the breakfast bar. Safaree was deep in thought, that he didn't hear Nicki ask him a question. "Umm, Safaree you okay? Is there something bothering you?" Nicki grabbed SB's hand, and gave him a concerned look. "Oh, I'm fine. I just thought us actually being together was a joke or something. I'm glad I'm with you though." Nicki looked up at him and smiled her dimpled smile. "Me too, Faree." Then Nicki's phone started playing Drake's verse on Champion , indicating that Drake was calling her. Safaree shifted in his seat. "You might wanna answer it. Never know who it might be." He said sarcastically. Nicki went back upstairs to her room, to retrieve her phone. She answered. "Hello?" "Hey Nicki,its Drake." "I know Drake, I have caller ID, you know?" She let out a barbie chuckle. "Oh, yeah thats right." Drake, you obviously called for something, Wassup?" Nicki said growing irritated. "Oh umm I just wanted to see if you were still set to come with my to the studio tomorrow evening." "Oh, yeah. Sure Aubrey." "Okay see you then beautiful." "Bye." Nicki kept their conversations short, because she knew Drake had a crush on her. Unlike Safaree, Drake was very obvious about his feelings towards her. Even though him and Nicki flirted alot, it was just for publicity and tv. Nicki thought he was very arrogant and cocky and that wasn't attractive
at all. Little did Nicki and Safaree know, Drake was gonna try his hardest to get Nicki.

Nicki and Safaree were sitting on the couch in the living room, watching Dora the Explorer.  Nicki was in tears, because Dora and Boots got caught by Swiper. Safaree was only watching it, because it was Nicki's choice. "Really Onika?" Nicki turned around towards him, "What? I like this episode!" "Sure it is, babe". Its almost time for you to go have your little studio date with fuck boy." "His name is Drake. and its not a date. Plus jealousy isn't a cute color on you, Lloyd." Nicki said referring to his middle name. "Sure, go get dress before he blows up my fucking phone asking where you are." Nicki let out a loud sigh and made her way to the bathroom. Once Nicki was done with her shower she put on  this outfit:
 

She made her way over to Safaree's room to ask him how her outfir looked. She bursted through his door. Safaree was sitting on the bed playing his xbox 360 while sitting on a club red chair. "Faree', how do I look?" Safaree wasn't playing Nicki any attention, until a pillow came flying towards his head with a thud. "Ouch, Nicki what the -" He stoped mid sentence when he saw what she had on. Man, She looks good, but where does she think she going looking sexy as hell in front of Drake bitch ass? Nope. Ima remind myself to get her a muslim dress next time she go near him. Slick ass! "Ummm hmm! Safaree, Do I look that bad? :(" "Whaaaaaa?!?! Nicki NO! You look amazing. Too amazing to be around Drake. But remember you mad fun of my on My Truth? But you wearing all jean. tuh gurrrrrl" "But . . . Its just Drake. He doesn't even like me like that. And fuck you !" "Yeah whatever. Hmm, Thats what you think." "Bye boy!"
~
"Aye, play that shit back." Drake said to 40. 40 replied with a simple head nod. The beat dropped, and Drake started rapping from his blackberry, thats when Nicki walked in, throwing Drake off. "Lets try this again later, bro." 40 said shaking his head. "Alright." Drake said to 40, but never taking his eyes off Nicki. "Are yall gonna just stand there, or are yall gonna gimme a hug!?!" Its been a while since Nicki and Drake spoke, simply because their schedules were busy and hetic. All three gave a group hug. "Wow, Nicki. You looking good girl!" Drake said trying to flirt. "Well, thank you darling. Looking this good is almost effortless." Nicki said in her fake british accent. Drake and 40 looked at each other and laughed at her. 40's android started ringing. "Aye, its important, I gotta take this call right quick. See you later Nicki." Nicki smiled and waved goodbye. "Bye hunney." Once the door closed, Drake started the conversation. "So, whats new with you pretty Nicki?" Nicki twittled with her fingers. "Hmm oh nothing much. A few features here and there, nothing really. Kind of a break I guess you can say." "Thats good. Seeing anyone?" Drake said moving closer to Nicki on the couch. Nicki scoffed. "Ha! No, nothing serious right now. Just trynna see how things work out with a certain someone." "Oh, okay. But if it doesn't work out with that nigga, you know where to find me, Onika." Nicki criged at the sound of him saying her government name. Before she knew it Drake gave her a kiss on the lips! What the fuck? Ehh, lord forgive me, but it feels soooo good. No!!!!!! Nicki sort of gave into his kiss, it felt good. Drake snaked his tongue into her mouth and she accepted. Then out of nowhere, Nicki stood up looking Drake squared in his hazel eyes. "I'm sorry I dodn't know what came-" "Look it okay. Our little secret, right?" "Umm, I guess." "Good, I'm sorry too, but girl I just had to ahaa." "No, Drake. I like what I have at home." And with that she made her to her car, before Drake could stop her.

Chapter 3: Maybe . . . Just Maybe .

It was just a kiss. A simple mistake. Why can't he just let it go?
All day Nicki had been ignoring Sb, which was kinda hard, because they lived together. Safaree tried everything in his power to get Nicki to come out of her room and speak to him, but it was always a fail or a argument. And Safaree didn't want another one of those. If she could just let me explain, or at least apologize for what I did.

~

SB was in the living room watching TV, when he heard the sound of heels clacking on the floors. He looked up from the television, to see Nicki fully dressed. She had on a cute green baby doll top, and a cute matching ruffle skirt, along wtih her yellow harajuku hat and blonde lace front wig. In Safaree's eyes she was perfection. "I'm going out for a couple of hours, to catch up with Lauren and Candi." SB knew hwat that meant: gossiping about HIM. He replied with a simple head nod, to show that he heard her and understood her. With that, Nicki headed out the door and peeled out of the driveway in her barbie benz.
(At Lauren's House)
"Girl, no he didn't!" Candi exclaimed while popping a jolly rancher in her mouth. "Yes Candi, he did." "So what did you do?" Lauren asked with her head cocked towards Nicki. Nicki started fumbling with her nails. Her two best friends knew that when Nicki fumbles with her nails, she's nervous. "Nicki, We're not gonna ask again." Lauren stated firmly. "Okay, okay. He kissed me. I knew that he was growing feelings for me, because at the way he looks at me now. After her kissed me, I kissed him back, then I ran towards my room." Candi and Lauren's eyes widen. Ten years ago, when Nicki's whole crew was in high school, Safaree confessed his love for Nicki to Candi and Lauren. He told them to keep it a secret, until he was ready to tell her. "Girl, he loves you. Always has, duh." Candi rolled her eyes. "Nicki, you shouldn't have ran from him. Go tell him how you feel, because me, you and God know you love that man." With that, Nicki made her way to the door, to go back home. "Where you going?" Candi and Lauren both asked, standing up. "To go get my man."

Safaree was in the kitchen making a home made burger and fries, when Nicki walked inside the front door. He tried to avoid eye contact with her, but failed horribly. Safaree took a seat down at the bar and Nicki followed. She started talking and turned towards SB. "Faree', look I just wanna say-." "Save it, Nic. No need to explain, we're just friends, right?" He let out a dry chuckle. "What?! NO! Safaree, I think I'm really feeling you. I've been feeling this way since we were little kids. I just could never build the courage to tell you, because I was scared that you wouldn't feel the same." Nicki lowered her head. "Nic, I never thought I would here you say that. I've felt this way, since day one. I love you, more than a friend and I know its gonna take you some time and I'm okay with that as long as I have you right by my side. Nicki looked up at SB and smiled, which caused Safaree to smile. Yes, I've finally got the girl of my dreams.

Chapter 2: Now or Never

Nicki had finally gotten up. She stretched and rolled over to her side, to check her blackberry. She had 1 unread message from SB.

ScaffBeezy:I came and checked up on you and you were still sleep. I made you breakfast.
Nicki hopped out of bed and slipped on her pink robe with the matching fuzzy slippers, and headed towards the kitchen.
She looked to her left and saw SB sitting in the diner. "Good Morning, dwarf. Let me fix you a plate." "Please and thank you." Nicki said in her innocent voice. Safaree chuckled a little bit, because he thought that was so cute. A few minutes later, Safaree came back with a plate of chocolate chip pancakes, pan sausages, eggs, a little bowl of fruit and a glass of orange juice. Nicki's eyes beamed at the smell and sight of the food.
~
When Nicki was done with her food, she gave a burp of satisfaction. She walked over to Safaree, and gave him a chocolaty kiss on the cheek. "Thanks for the breakfast Faree'." I wish that was a kiss on the lips. "Yuck, now I gotta go re-wash my face." Nicki gave him the "dead ass face" "Fix ya' face and go put some clothes on. You gotta radio interview at 2." Nicki looked at the clock and gasped. "Safaree its 1:34! Fuck!"
Nicki took a speed shower, put on her undies, lotioned up and hurriedly put on her clothes. After that she put on her blonde lace wig with her cute pink hat.

When Nicki was done, she headed downstairs. Safaree stood up and got the keys once he saw her. Damn, I never realized how sexy he was. Nicki unconsciously bit down on her bottom lip, making Safaree stare at her.

"Uh, you ready?"
"Yep."
~
"You are now live with Tim Westwood. In the building with Nicki Minaj *Makes the explosion noise*"
"Hi, Timmy."
"Hello, Nicki. This is your 3rd time here in the UK, so you know the drill. Spill, girlfriend!"
"*Giggles softly* Well what do you wanna know, Tim?" Nicki said in her seductive voice. she loved her interviews with Tim Westwood, because he was so funny.
"Your little barbz have been blowing up my twitter asking me all the same questions."
What might that question be?" Nicki already knew where this interview was headed, and she didn't like it. Not one bit.
"Team Dricki or Team OnikaFaree?"
Nicki's eyes got wide. Ugh, Barbz. Not today.
Safaree was in the chair across the room. He looked at Nicki's body language for answers. It was a good thing he had a pair of shades on. She looked uncomfortable about the question and he wished he could help her, but he couldn't.
"Sorry to say barbz, neither are real. I'm too busy in career to stop and date. truth be told, I don't really wanna date." Nicki gave Tim a dimple shrug. This made Safaree's heart drop completely. Nic, don't say that. Let me show you how to love.
Tim scrolled down on his blackberry to read another question from a barb. "Ahh. Here's another question: How come you always hold ScaffBeezy's hand out in the media, if you don't quote on quote date?" This made Nicki so pissed, you could see her ears getting red. "SB aka ScaffBeezy is my best friend." The rest of the interview annoyed the hell outta Nicki and Safaree both. People were asking dumb questions like: Do you really like girls? Did you ever get implants? Do you have any hair? Nicki couldn't wait for it to be over.
~
"Where are we going, Faree'?" Nicki asked, while looking out the tinted windows of the SUV. "Out to dinner." "If you haven't noticed, I'm not in a really good." Nicki turned towards Safaree and gave him a fake smile. "Yeah, Nic. I noticed and thats why I wanted to take you out. Thats okay, right?" Nicki thought for a secondthen snapped! "No! I wanna go home and I wanna go NOW!" Safaree slammed on his breaks. "Got damnit woman. How come everytime you get mad, you wanna ball up in a corner and be alone? Stop being stubborn. We're going out and thats that." He hated yelling at Nicki, but sometimes she could be so mean. "Fine." Nicki rolled her eyes and crossed her arms and kept looking out the front car window.
~
"Look, I'm sorry for snapping on you earlier. Its just I'm under alot of pressure and stress and-" "Its okay, dwarf. No need to explain. I see what you go through and I don't know how you do it. I still love you." They had came back from their dinner, and were now in the middle of the living room floor, watching The Devil Wears Prada and snuggled up together under on big blanket. "I love you too, Faree." Nicki snuggled closer to Safaree. Say it Safaree. This is a now or NEVER. DO IT. Safaree too that as his chance to make his move on the girl of his dreams. Safaree crashed his lips against Nicki's. Nicki pulled back from the kiss and looked in to Safaree's eyes. They read lust. Onika this is what you've wanted all along. Wait what am I saying? Safaree is my BESTFRIEND. I can't. Yes you can. You will. No I can't. Nicki stood up from the floor. "Look, Nic. I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me. Its just you're so-" Safaree was cut off by Nicki kissing SB back! SB broke the kiss. "Nic, does this mean. . .?" Before he could get a reply, Nicki had already fled to her room, regretting the kiss .

Chapter 1: The Beginning

There she goes, seducing me. Its almost like she does this shit on purpose. Safaree, she said it many of times in the past she didn't want you and she made herself pretty clear. Get over yourself, man.

Safaree was still staring at Nicki from a distance, watching her dance and have fun all by her self on the dance floor. She looked so beautiful to him. The way the club's disco lights shined on her honey brown skin, the way her skin toned dress fit on her curves, and the girly pink wig she had on tonight just made Sb want Nicki even more. I need her. Tonight is the night I tell her how I feel.  Safaree's thoughts were interrupted by Lil' Wayne nudging him on the shoulder. "Go and get your girl, man." "I don't know what you're talking about." "Look, I've been watching you, watch her all night. You never know this could be your chance, so go get your girl. Never mind." Wayne pointed at Nicki slow dancing with Drake on her hip. That mad Safaree's blood boil and Wayne could tell, so he backed away saying, "Do whatchu' gotta do."
(Nicki & Drake)

Drake was having the time of his life with the girl of his dreams. Drake loved Nicki as much as Safaree did, but he had a funny way of showing it. "Miss Minaj, might I say you are looking rather sexy tonight." Nicki could tell he was flirting with her and she enjoyed it. "Oh, Drizzy. You don't look too bad yourself." Nicki replied in her British accent. Nicki and Drake flirted all the time, but Nicki just thought of it as playing around with her "little brother" and didn't know that Drake was madly in love with her. Drake tried to sneak a kiss on Nicki's cheek and that's when Safaree caught Nicki's attention. "Faree'!" Nicki said forgetting about Drake and running towards Sb. "Hey dwarf." "I thought you were headed back out to New York?" "Nope, I wanted to spend some extra time with my best friend." Nicki looked up at Safaree with her grey colored contacts and smiled, exposing her deep dish dimples. When Safaree saw that, he felt like his heart had just melted. Both of them had forgotten Drake was even there. Drake cleared his throat. "Nic, are we gonna continue to dance or just give Safaree some attention?" Nicki rolled her eyes. "Drake, I'm kinda tired anyways, so I'm gonna go head home." "But. . ." "You heard the woman, shes tired." Safaree said stepping in. He hated Drake with all the fiber in his being and he would be damned if Drake wins Nicki's heart over. "Carry to the car, Faree" Nicki said pouting. "Sure kid." "Ugh, don't call me that!" "I do as I please woman! Chu-"
(Nicki & Sb's Apartment)

Nicki had changed out of her dress and into one of Safaree's old high school shirts as her pj's tonight. She climbed into bed and turned on the TV, to watch cold case files re-runs. Meanwhile in the other room, Sb kept pacing the room back in forth. FUCK! Stop being a pussy and just tell the girl! "FUCK!" He punched his mattress, which made Nicki call out his name. (#pauz lol) Safaree knocked on Nicki's door. "Its open." Sb sat at the edge of her bed, looking up at Nicki, waiting for his scowl. "What hell is going on over there?" "Nothing really." "Safaree Lloyd Samuels." He knew whenever Nicki used his whole name, she was serious. "Okay, I have a question to ask you, Nic and I'm sure how you're gonna take it." When he got no reply he saw Nicki sound asleep, clutching the corner of her cover. Next time, I'll tell you. Safaree smiled and kissed Nicki's forehead and exited her room to catch up on sleep himself, however his brain wouldn't let him.
