Michael

Y/N and I were on our last interview before the small intimate red carpet world premiere for "A journal for Jordan" out here in New York City. I was sitting down in my seat getting ready for the wired autocompleted interview which was answering the most search questions on the internet. Some of the questions were going to be about us personally but majority were going to be about both Y/N and I. Y/N finally came out from Chloe doing her hair. I just smiled looking Y/N up and down. Her hair was in a pony tail with curls as she had on a gray dress with silver accessories to match.

"Hey baby" she said as I grabbed her hand with her ring on it. "Hey, you got my text?" I asked. "Yeah you and Denzel were out at breakfast" she said as we shared a kiss. "I ain't want to wake you up I knew you were tired with these interviews and taking care of what you needed to take care of regarding Laila and her performances" I explained. "Yeah I'm ready to chill out" she honestly said. "We got the premiere and one more thing we need to take care of before we go home for Christmas" I assured her as she dropped her head back and I chuckled. We needed to fly out to Atlanta and do a couple of house tours so I can get ready for next year as far as having a house for us to stay at while filming for creed 3 and black Panther 2.

"You look pretty" I complimented with a smile. "Thank you" she thanked with a big smile as I looked back down at her ring on her finger.

"Oh So you ready to do this?" I asked referring to her wearing her ring out in the open like this verses us just wearing our tattoos.  "Yeah I just wanted us to keep it between us and family to truly enjoy it before the world knows and I'm ready if you are" she said as we shared a smile. "Yeah I'm ready" I agreed as Y/N took a seat next to me as they hooked her up to a mic and handed me a thick poster board with questions that we had to rip the stickers off to read.

We started filming introducing ourselves and the network who was providing the interview. Y/N and I decided to go back and forth on our personal boards to answer questions so we can breeze past them and get to our couple questions.

"What is Michael B Jordan's zodiac sign?" I read off the board "I am an Aquarius, February 9th" I answered as I looked over at Y/N "or how Y/N likes to put it, an aquarium" I joked as

Y/N laughed some. She then ripped the sticker off of her board. "What is Y/N's Y/L/N zodiac sign?" She read "I am apart of the July cancer gang" she answered smiling big as I chuckled. "A little crab cake but I digress" I said looking down at my board trying not to laugh as I felt Y/N staring over at me. "Mike don't start" she warned as we shared a small laugh.

"I am the aquarium that you the crab can live in" I expressed. "Bye" she said through her laugh as I chuckled looking at my board ripping another sticker off so I could read the question.

"What was Michael B. Jordan's first movie?" I read "black and white" Y/N answered as I looked over at her and we shared a smile before placing our fists on each others. "Black and White and my first movie with actual speaking roles was hardball" I answered. "What college did Y/N Y/L/N attend?" Y/N asked. "I attended Spelman college in Atlanta Georgia. My major was becoming a registered practitioner nurse and my minor was business" she informed. "And she graduated with a doctorates so technically my best friend is a doctor and she can own a business if she wanted too" I hyped as she laughed. "Meanwhile my best friend is the executive producer of the movie he's starring in tonight" Y/N added. "Black excellence at its finest" I said. "That part" Y/N said as we shared a small laugh continuing with our own personal questions soon getting to our couple questions.

I ripped the sticker off the question reading the first question aloud. "Are Michael B Jordan and Y/N Y/L/N dating?" I read. "We've been getting this question forever" I started off. "Yes we are" I answered as Y/N just looked at me and shook her head giggling ripping the next questions sticker off. "How long have Michael B Jordan and Y/N been dating?" Y/N read.

"Four years" she answered as I read the next question. "Do

Y/N and and Michael B Jordan have any children together?" I read and chuckled looking at the board.

I then looked over at Y/N "Are You pregnant?" I asked her as she just covered her face. "America we do not have any children together nor with other people" she assured as I agreed. "Got to set the record straight because you all swear up and down she's been pregnant since we got together and she's not" I answered. "Just had a little happy weight, that's all" Y/N started off "but I slimmed down aight" she assured as we shared another laugh.

"Are Michael b Jordan and Y/N in a movie together?" Y/N read. "Yes the movie is called "A Journal for Jordan" I answered beginning to explain what the movie is about. "And it will be in theaters for Christmas" Y/N added. "Are Michael B Jordan and Y/N engaged?" I asked. "No we're not" Y/N answered as I just looked at her and she looked back at me out the corner of her eyes trying not to laugh.. "Okay last question." I said ripping the sticker off the board and reading the question. "Is Michael B Jordan and Y/N Y/L/N married?" Y/N asked. "Yes we're married" I answered. "Wait" I heard my manager say from the other side of the cameras.

"Are you two serious?" One of the producers of the interview asked from behind the cameras as Y/N finally took her hand out of the other holding up her hand. "Oh my Gosh" Y/N's manager expressed as Y/N and I laughed. "how long?" My manger questioned. "Nine months" I answered. "You two have been married for almost a year?!" Y/N's manager asked as y/N and I shared a laugh simply because not only was the behind the scenes crew shocked but even our team was there shocked as well.

"Thank you for tuning into the wire" Y/N thanked. "And don't forget to see A Journal for Jordan, in theaters this Christmas" I added as the camera stopped and our team along with the crew for the wire immediately congratulated us.

I was standing there posing for a couple of photos by myself on the carpet

While Y/N was a couple of feet away from me also taking pictures for reporters. I just looked over at her as her hair was now down and in curls with brown at the ends of her hair.

She had on a diamond tennis necklace along with diamond earrings in her ears and a long sleeve white colored dress.

Usually she give a red carpet look EVERY TIME but this time She dressed semi down and still looks better than everyone else in my opinion. I held my hand out as smiled and did a little run towards me grabbing my hand. I just placed an arm around her and kissed her head as we smiled for the pictures. She looked up at me as I looked at her. "What's up?" I asked as she smiled "I'm proud of you baby" she said as I smiled and placed a kiss on her lips. "This is your first movie I'm proud of you" I honestly said as smiled. "And my last I'm leaving this all up to you" she said as I chuckled and we took a couple of more pictures together.

We went throughout the premiere and the way it all came together it was a beautiful movie. Y/N and I left as soon as the movie was over due to us wanting to leave and us having to get on a flight early tomorrow morning. We started heading to the vacation penthouse we were renting while out in New York City. "Okay cover your eyes" she instructed as I chuckled. "What for?" I questioned. "Michael just close and cover your eyes" she said as I she grabbed my hand and I placed my other hand over my eyes. "What you about to do?" I asked as I heard her close the door behind us. "Just wait" I heard her say as she grabbed my print softly as I bit down on my bottom lip and she giggled.

I heard her heels click against the floor as I just stood there. Hearing the fridge open along with the cabinet doors open and closing. "Okay" she finally said as I opened my eyes seeing her in the kitchen with a small cake in front of her along with a bouquet of roses a glass of wine and two wine glasses. "What's this?" I asked walking up to the island and taking a seat reading the cake that was in front of me.

"I just wanted to celebrate you and how far you've come from where you started period." She started off "your career and outside your career I'm just so proud that you've managed to remain the same humbled person I met when we were children." She expressed then paused "I'm trying not to cry" she admitted as we shared a small laugh. "You went through things when we were children and I'm so happy that you kept going despite what anybody else had to say." She said as I nodded listening to her. "I love how passionate you are about what you do, how creative you are and I'm ready to see all of what God has planned for you" she explained.

"So" she started off grabbing the bouquet of flowers "I always give you flowers because I feel like a man should receive his flowers before death." She said. "I don't know if this will mean anything to you because I'm one person or this is expected of me But these flowers are for you because of all that you have accomplished and everything you will accomplish." She said handing me the flowers as I faintly smiled. "With you being a black man and me being a black woman I feel like it's extremely important for me to honor a black man who actually does what he's supposed too and to show you how much you are appreciated." She expressed.

"You were never corny to me, nor a square you handled your business the proper way, believed in yourself, treated everybody with kindness and respected whoever you encountered" she honestly said as I smiled some. "And To me no matter what social media says or our community says it's not you being corny it's you being a real man and I have the upmost respect for you" she admitted wiping some of her tears away. "So i love you" she said "I love you too" I honestly said with a smile. "And" she started off "come here" I said holding my arms out as she came around then island and we wrapped our arms around each other. "Damn You about to make me cry" I said as we shared a small laugh. I just kissed her head. "This means a lot to me baby girl and I'm happy I get to share all of these moments with you." I expressed as I looked at her and she looked up at me. I just. Kissed her lips as she kissed back passionately.
