Fayth
A couple months later
"My man, my man, my man." I chanted as I looked at the bouquet of Royal Blue roses Malik sent me. Royal Blue is my favorite color.
"Y'all are so cute, it's disgusting." Maliyah fake gagged.
"Bitch I don't want to hear that. Draco been at your apartment every day since we came back from L.A." I laughed.
Things with Maliyah and Draco were going pretty well. They weren't official yet but they might as well be.
"We're taking things slow." She blushed.
I was about to say something else when my apartment door opened and Malik, Draco, and Ace came in.
"Damn y'all don't knock?" I asked annoyed.
"Next time lock the door." Ace said as he laid down on the couch.
"Why y'all here? I thought you said y'all had some business to take care of." I asked Malik as he came and pulled me in for a hug.
"We do, we're just stopping by." He said as he looked at Draco who was kissing Maliyah on the couch. He cringed before pulling me into my room. He found it weird that his best friend was dating his sister. He was still trying to get used to the idea.
"You look so pretty today." He said as we sat down on the bed together.
"Thank you, Malik." I blushed. He still gave me butterflies every moment I spent with him.
He leaned in and kissed before he pulled me into a tight hug.
"Your so touchy today." I laughed as I hugged him back.
"I'm just enjoying us in the moment." He said but he gave a sad small smile.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"It's just me and the boys got to go handle some business and it can get really dangerous real fast." He spoke.
"Don't you guys do dangerous shit all the time. What's different?"
"Before you, I was careless with my life. It felt like I had nothing to live for."
His words made my heart ache.
"What about your mama and Maliyah?"
"Sometimes I feel like there better off without me. They'd be okay if I died."
I had never heard those type of words come out of his mouth. He was being so vulnerable and open with me.
"You're so wrong. It would hurt them so much if you died. Hell, it would fuck the whole city up. People love you and they always have. Don't say no shit like that again, okay?" It hurt me to hear those words.
He nodded "But anyways that was before everything happened with you. Every since we really started liking each other, life's been different. It's been better." He said as he caressed my cheek.
"You've made my life better too. I was in a abusive ass relationship with Anthony and you came to my rescue." I smiled.
"You ain't heard from him have you?" He asked.
I shook my head no. "Why? What did you do to him anyway?" It just crossed my mind that I never asked why he disappeared.
"Me and the boys just scared him a little. We beat his ass and dropped his ass off deep in the woods somewhere. I broke his phone so he couldn't call for help and Ace robbed him." He said all that so casually it made my jaw drop.
"Are you serious?" I asked and he nodded.
"He could be dead."
"So." He shrugged. "He's probably not tho. But he won't be bothering you no more. The nigga is a pussy for real. All he did was cry like a little bitch." Malik laughed.
For some reason I wasn't mad or upset. I was actually kind of happy. He's finally getting what he deserved after all that time of torturing me and making me feel terrible about myself.
"Good." I sighed. Feeling a sense of relief.
"Good? Your not mad?" He asked confused.
"Why would I be?" I laughed.
"Your just as crazy as me." He laughed with me.
We talked a little longer and then he left with the boys to do whatever it was they had to do. Maliyah and I went out to eat and got our nails done and chilled at my place for the remainder of the day.
***** Malik
Later that night
"Okay pull up to the blue and White House. Them niggas outside."
Deonte, Draco, and Ace all sat in my car with their guns loaded. I drove up to the house slowly and let the windows down.
Next think I know, Bullets sprayed the house as body's dropped to the floor. It was at least ten people on the ground.
"Alright Go!!" Draco yelled and I stomped my foot on the gas.
We just killed the leader of the east side and most of his gang. Probably some of their family members too but who gives a fuck. Them niggas sholl didn't give a fuck when they killed ours.
The East and the West been fighting for damn near forever. It was about time somebody put an end to it. If anybody found out we did it, there would be a target on our backs.
"That shit was easier than I thought." Deonte laughed as he wiped his gun off.

Pulling up to Fayths apartment, I sent her a text letting her know I was coming over to spend the night.
She opened the door and rubbed her eye. She had on some Batman pajamas and her hair was in a messy bun but she looked so pretty.
"How'd it go? Are you okay?" She asked as I stepped in.
"I'm all good baby girl. Like always."
"I just made us a quick little seafood boil." She said as we walked into the kitchen.
She knew seafood was my favorite meal, especially the crab legs.

"This looks so good. Thank you, my love." I said as I kissed her.
After we ate and took our showers and got ourselves together we got into bed and she made me watch pretty little liars. At first I was bitching about it but I actually kind of liked the dumb ass show. I would never tell her that tho.
We cuddled until we both peacefully drifted off to sleep.
