The one

Chapter 5

After a few minutes the gun shots stopped and the only thing you can hear is the sobbing coming from people.

I still had my eyes close scared to see what was going on I felt Jose running his hands through my hair. I felt a pair of lips near my ear lobe.

Just being this close to him makes me nervous it's like I get butterfly's in my tummy but I don't even know why maybe it's because he's changed maybe it's because he's a gang leader I just don't know why.

"Are you okay.?" Jose asked

"Um ya I'm fine but what is going on why did that just happen and how did you know it was gonna happen.?"

"I can't tell you anything right now but you have to get home who did you come with?"

" I came with my friend"

" I saw Miguel when I came in you need to go home with him I'm sure he's worried about you I'll go look for him don't move okay."

"Okay"

"A few minutes later Jose came back with my brother Miguel they are like "homies" now at least that's what they call each other they are like always together I kinda get jealous sometimes cause that is supposed to be me not my brother.

"Mila are you okay did anything happen to you did you get hurt.?" Miguel asked frantically

"Yes I'm okay nothing happened I just wanna go home can we please leave?"

"Ya of course I just have to go do something real quick"

Then he turned to Jose

"Aye bro can you walk my sister to the car and keep an eye out to make sure those idiots aren't coming back."

"Ya sure."

So me and Jose started walking out to my brothers car

"So ma how you been..?"

"Why do you wanna know."

"Damm ain't gotta be rude I just wanna know how my best friend was that's all."

I got mad at that and just looked at him like he was stupid.

"What do you mean your  best friend Jose last time I checked we weren't bestfriends anymore"

He looked like he was hurt but I'm sure he was just playing

"Okay if that's how you feel then go ahead."

"Really if that's how I feel last time I checked your the one who started ignoring me you pushed me out of your life you would be rude to me for what just so you can be popular. I've been through a lot and I know that you know even the whole town knew what we were going through and if you really cared about me you would check up on me but not once did I get a call from you now 2 years later you ask me how I am that does not count."

I couldn't control myself I was really mad and hurt and angry just a bunch of mixed emotions.

"Look Camila I'm sorry okay I really am but I do care about you I always will and trust me I really wanted to be there for you and be there with you and hold you in my arms when everything was happening but I couldn't... I can't say anything right now but just know that I stayed away from you for your safety."

I was so confused what does he mean for my safety just when I was gonna ask him my brother came back

" okay now let's go"

We got into the car leaving Jose standing there he kept looking at me but I didn't want to look at him right now... But the only thing that I could think about right now is what did Jose mean by what he said... Did he really mean it when he said he still cares and always did or was he just lying...
I just don't know anything anymore
