Real Love?

Chapter 43

Jordan's POV

We all got in the jets, and I sat in front of Riley. We both knew we got our selves in some serious gang shit.

"What's going to happen now?" I asked McCoy

"Hopefully August will handle his drama with Derek and we can all go back to our lives." he said

"Probably not happening.." Micaela said

"And why is that?" Riley asked

"Because Derek is a crazy nigga who can't be controlled. Trust me, this isn't the first time August has heard of him. They've had beef for a long time." she said, messing with her nails

McCoy turned around and looked at her, "What do you mean he's had beef with him for a long time? How long?"

"A couple of years now."

"How long is a couple?" he questioned

"Long enough to know that August hated Derek for dating Jade.." Micaela said, looking like she regret what she had just said.

"Excuse me?" I said, speaking up

"Please let this either stay between us or just drop it." Micaela answered

"Uhm..no one is dropping this for one, so continue explaining." Riley said

"Well August and Derek were once best friends, believe it or not. I use to be really close with August until I moved to Atlanta." she said

"Continue." Riley said and I nodded in agreement

"Well August always said he loved Jade and was going to make her his one day. All of us knew it wasn't true but apparently he was actually serious. So, Jade never knew who August was and it stayed like that until August introduced himself to her at Josh's party." she said.

"Did you know any of this would happen?" Riley asked

"Honestly, no. I didn't even know he was alive until Jade told me that she met him. I wanted to tell her everything on the spot but she looked so happy, I didn't know what to say or how to say it." Micaela said, putting her head down

"I don't understand, you would want someone to tell you this situation if you were in it. Why didn't you tell her?" I asked

"Jordan is right, she's bound to figure out and she's going to be hurt." Riley said

Micaela shook her head because she was disappointed in herself, "I know it was wrong, but would you have told her? After everything she has been through and you would destroy her happiness?"

"Let's stop talking about this!" McCoy yelled.

We all jumped up, surprised at his reaction to all of this. Everyone decided to drop the topic and we all just enjoyed the plane ride. Micaela decided to play some music for everyone and it ended up being the song 'Promises' by Jhene Aiko.

"I'm going to take a nap. Are you going to stay awake?" I asked RIley

"Yeah, i'll just sleep when we get to where ever we're going." she replied.

I nodded my head, "Will you wake me up when we land please?"

"Yeah, I gotchu." she said]

I looked at everyone one more time before I decided to shut my eyes and drift off to sleep.

Michael's POV

I started to get worried about Jade and her so called 'love' for August. I mean yeah that's my nigga and all but he sure isn't trustworthy.

"Whatchu thinking about?" Jade said, interrupting my thoughts

"Nothing.." I said

"You're going to tell me later, right now i'm going to ask you a lot of questions." she said, laughing

I laughed, "Go for it."

"Where have you been all these years?" she started off with

"Well, I kind of moved from Atlanta to New Orleans and then back here a year ago." I said

"Cool, I'm assuming that's how you met August.." she said

"Yeah, we went to the same school for a while and became really good friends."

"Cool, now. A question i've been dying for you to answer. Why did you push me away?" she asked, looking down

I sighed, "It wasn't on purpose. I just was going through something rough."

"Something you still can't tell me..?" she asked, sounding really disappointed

"Not now. Not here. It's not the time Jade. But I swear to you that I will tell you when it's the right time. For now, we need to focus on staying alive so I can get to the point of telling you." I told her

She rolled her eyes, "Fine. But just know it feels good seeing you everyday again, without us being mad or ignoring each other. I missed your loud monkey ass."

I laughed, "So i'm that loud?"

"Honestly, yes. But that's what people love about you so it's not a bad thing."

I smiled, "Well know I missed you too. And i'm really sorry."

"Stop saying sorry. Just know I love you Mikey." she said laughing

"Love you too big head."
