Chapter Fourteen

Jacques walked into the hospital along with Devon and Bryce. The boys immediately sat down in the chairs except Jacques. "Maan this all my fault! I f***ed up bad. Now I cause my girl to get into an accident and be in the hospital. Damn it maan. Damn it." Jacques punch the wall. "Bro chill. She's going to okay. Just sit down and chill maan. You making me nervous. "Bryce said.

That's when Jadien and Jay walked out the room. They didn't look too happy. "Jadien how she's holding up?" Devon asked. Jadien shook his head. "She's in coma. The doctor just hopes she wakes up but until then there's nothing we can do." Jacques was getting furious hearing this. "What the f*** you mean they hopes she wake up? They better keep trying. I'm not about to lose Jacelyn. I can't afford to lose her. Maan f*** it. I'm gonna stay here and make sure they don't quit working on her. Maan I can't lose her. I just can't. I can't." Jadien went up to Jacques. "Look here! You better calm yo a** down. They doing all they can. Just go home! I'll stay her with her. She doesn't need to see your face when she wakes up. You'll just startle her even more." Jacques shook his head. "Naww bro. I don't care what you say. I'm staying up here with my girl. You know me. Jadien you got to stop walking around here as if nothing is wrong. I didn't even freak that girl. If you don't believe me, ask Rashan. He was with me. I was on my way to JaMarcus house when she was on my doorstep. What was I supposed to do? Hit her. Naw! Maan my own mama was there in the room. I couldn't disrespect her. If anything you should know about that. Wasn't you the one to hug your momma when she going through it with your pops. Wasn't you the one who stayed up with her until she felt better. Yeah you did that because I know you. Maan you like a brother to me but you got to believe me when I say I ain't freak that girl.

Jadien remember all them times. That's when Ja'Quan first day leaving for the game. The day he never came back. "Jacques go home maan. I'm done f***ing with you." He pushed Jacques. Bryce stepped on between. "Bro so you just gon' be mad forever. Look Jadien I get where you coming from. I would also protect my little sister from dudes too. I know how you feel. Jacques, bro you have to give her space. I know you love your girl forreal forreal. I see it in your eyes everytime she comes to your games. You do your best with her. She make everything better when she's around but you just got to remind calm. Jadien! Jacques! This beef here has stop. C'mon now! We boys! We a team. How long have we been down for each?" Jadien looked away. Jacques looked away too. "They can't even answer because its been to long. Jadien you remember in 8th grade when we would chill at your house and then Alexis and Jacelyn walked in. Boy I could never forget that day. That's when we both fell in love with the girls. I could see myself with Alexis and Jacques could see himself with Jacelyn. That day you told him straight up don't play yo sister. Well Jadien he isn't. Have you ever notice how happy she is when she's around him? When was the last time you seen that smile of hers?" Devon asked. Jadien thought about it. "Jacelyn was four years when she last smiled. I remember when she first was born. I thought I wasn't gon' be able to handle her. Ja'Quan knew it too. We always was the ones to play doll with her. She would always smile at us. Until a year ago, when he was trying protect her but was shot. That day Jacelyn smile disappeared and so did mines." Jadien confessed.

Jacques went to dab him up. "Bro you know I would never hurt Jacelyn when she already been hurt so many times in the past. Maan I love that girl. I ain't trying to just f*** her and leave. Jadien I see a future with her. I seen myself married to her with kids. Bro Jacelyn the best that happen to me." Bryce realize he had tears.

"Now that's how you counsel." Devon said. Bryce seen the girls walking out. They immediately ran to them. Devon hugged Alexis. Bryce hugged Maureen. Only person messing was Rashan. Taylor felt out of place. "We should get going. School in the morning." Taylor softly said. "We staying here." Jadien and Jacques said at the same time. The crew decided it wasn't a bad idea to stay here until Jacelyn woke up. "I think that's a great idea." Janelle said walking behind them. Jay followed. "I think my baby girl could use the love too." Jay said looking at Jacques. Jacques nodded.
