Tito

I knew what I did was half wrong but half right. Maybe she didn't actually want him? Maybe she was just confused. She looked so in thought at this point. I turned towards her and grabbed her hand.

Hermione

His eyes looked sad but they were shining with something I couldn't read. He looked at my face then eyes and then his eyes flickered to my lips. He started to lean in and I found myself doing the same. As soon as his lips touched mine it was like a fire lit up. I pulled him close kissing him hard. He had done something to me that I couldn't explain. His lips tasted like sugar and felt like velvet. After a few minutes he pulled away. "Mione, I really like you but I don't want to make you do something you don't want to do. I just want you to be happy. If that's with Oscar then that's okay. If it's with me, even better. I just want to see you happy. I won't tell him what we did today as long as you don't say anything either. When you make your decision let me know okay?" I nodded kissing his lips one last time. "Come on I gotta get you food quick and get you back home before he starts buggin." I laughed as his eyes got big like Oscar's when he was freaking out.

I ate my food as fast as I could on the ride home. We were about a good ten minutes away from the house when Tito grabbed my hand kissing it softly. I blushed smiling at him. "Your cute when you blush." He smiled driving down the street. As we got to Freeridge Tito dropped my hand and put on a hard face. Soon we pulled into Oscar's driveway and there he sat with all Los Santos on the lawn. I got out of the car and walked up to him with a smile. "Can we talk?" He asked standing up. I nodded and we went into the house. As I sat on the couch he paced around the room. "Hey what's wrong?" I asked with a slight frown.

"I'm freakin the fuck out! Carman is threatening me and shit!" He all but yelled at me. "Then here you are runnin around with Tito like he's your vato or some shit! Why didn't you come home? I would have taken you out." He looked so beat the hell up about it. "Oscar we were already out, I thought it would save time. Calm down. And what do you mean Carmen is threatening you?" He huffed at me. "She's mad cause I'm not letting her see Tez. She said she might go to court if I don't let her see him." That right there pissed me off. "You have had custody of Tez since he was a baby. Now she wants to be a parent? You know what, let her see him. He will make it plain and clear that he wants nothing to do with her. Trust me, Tez hates that woman for what she done to him." Oscar sighed and nodded. "Your right. And I still needa talk to you about something."

We decided to let it slide for a while til he was calm about the whole Carmen thing to talk about Tito. Now here we are in his bedroom about to have this conversation. "I was talking to one of the Lil homies today. And he showed me something." I nodded waiting for him to continue. He pulled his phone out and showed me a picture of Tito and I kissing in the school parking lot. "Okay that is not what your thinking let me explain before you go crazy on me." He nodded waiting for me to continue. "That football player right there," I pointed to Alex that was standing in front of us. "Was trying to get at me. I told him I had a man but he wouldn't stop. So Tito stepped in and tried to get him to stop but he wouldn't. He picked at me about being with an older man and wouldn't take no for an answer. Then told Tito the only way to make him stop was to prove he was my man. So he kissed me in front of the dude to make him stop." I was telling the truth partly. I wasn't going to tell Oscar everything that happened.

"So he was doing it to make the guy leave you alone and nothing more?" He asked staring into my eyes. "Yes Oscar." He scoffed looking away from me. "Yeah right. He still ain't over you. You two dated for gods sake Mione!" He yelled. Oh I didn't even think about that. "Oscar we never dated. It was fake. We faked it to make you and Angel jealous. There was never a Tito and Hermione." He looked at me like I was speaking a different language to him. "Yeah okay." He huffed. "Why do you care so much? I'm not your girlfriend! You haven't asked me. You just claimed me and called me your ruca because of the prophet at that party!" I yelled in frustration. "You know what, your right. I don't know why I even care about it. You ain't my ruca. I'ma keep the claim because I promised you Abuelita I'd keep you safe but that's it." He yelled. I nodded standing up and walking out the door. "Where you goin!?" He yelled. "None of your business." I yelled back walking out the door slamming it in the process.

Tears rolled down my cheeks and my heart was pounding. I pulled out my phone calling the one person I knew always had my back. Within five minutes the black low rider pulled up beside me and I jumped into the car and we sped off back to the beach. Tito held my hand the whole way there. Once we got there we both got out and walked down to the water sitting in the sand. He held me close to his chest as my tears fell like a waterfall. Every once in a while he would kiss my head but he never stopped rocking me. "It's gonna be okay Mione."
