[Now]
I couldn't help but think about Ramona and Frankito. God, did I miss them.... I shook them out of my head, for now. Right now I needed to find Billie because we can't stay this whole week as a "couple" being pissed at each other. I walked out of the room.
"Hey Tre." Callie said, smiling.
I smiled, tenseness showing on my face. "Good morning."
She walked up to me. "Tre...... this is hard to say.."
I laid my hand on her shoulder. "You can tell me anything."
She nodded solemnly. "Johnny's staying at his sisters for a few days."
I didn't say anything. Should I personally feel happy or sad he was away? My mind said one thing but my heart said another. Say something to her, Trè!
"What happened?" I finally asked her.
"I don't think we're together anymore." Callie said.
There goes my heart again.
"Why not?" I asked again. Callie scratched her head. I may be too personal. "Nevermind."
She groaned as the smell of burning food arose in the air. She walked into the kitchen to check on whatever was in the stove.
[Billie]
Who the fuck does Tre think he is by saying that? Honestly, I could kick his ass any day but right now I feel like killing him. I know I messed up, but Adrianne won't take my kids from me! She can't.
B-but can she? No.
My phone began to ring. It startled me, so I jumped. I quickly answered it.
"Hey." I said kinda sternly.
"Oh hi uh, wrong time?" I heard. I think it was Mike.
"Yeah kinda, what's up."
"Just wanted to call to see what's up, want me to go?" He asked me.
"No it's fine." I answered. "Better to talk to you then Tre."
"Oh no, what now?" Mike said, chuckling.
"Just some shit about.... nothing." I answered. Mike didn't know and I didn't want him getting offended that I haven't told him yet; or at all.
"What?" I shuffled my feet.
"His ex." I answered. It wasn't a complete lie....
"Wasn't her name Liz or something."
"Lizza," I said. "I kinda stepped outta line but so did he."
"What went down?" Mike asked. I sighed, and leaned on the back of the wall.
"We just went at each other. I stated something about his wife- he said somehing about mine." I explained.
"What did he say about Adie?"
I went silent for a minute. What do I tell him?
"Billie?" Callie called from the house.
"oh dude I gotta go." I told him.
"Alright talk to you later man."
I hung up- then sighed with relief.
"Yes Callie?" I asked, waking into the house.
"Um.... breakfast." she said, handing me a plate.
When she did, her sleeve lifted and I saw a bruise.
"You okay?" I asked.
She stuttered. "oh uh.... y-yeah. it's nothing."
I didn't believe her..... Ohmigod is that what Johnny did to her?!
"Did Johnny......?" I asked softly.
She took a deep breathe then began to cry. I pulled her close into my chest and hugged her.
"When the fuck did he do it?" I asked.
"When didn't he?" She spat.
My heart sank. I cant believe that bastard did this.
Trè walked into the room. "What's wrong?"
I don't need to see this asshole right now......
"Johnny is abusing her Trè." I said with a sneer. He ran over to her.
"Are you okay?" He frantically asked. She bit her lip.
"Just..... leave me alone please." She said walking quickly to her room.
"Callie, wait." Trè said after her.
I sighed an exhausted sigh.
Can today get any worse?
