Good Things Fall Apart (Being Edited)

Lost and found

"Nothing is promised to
me and you
So why would we let this thing go
Baby I promise that I'll stay true don't let nobody say it ain't so
And baby I promise
that I'll never leave
and everything will be alright
Baby I promise these things to you
Girl just believe
I promise." Jagged Edge~Promise

Journey

I woke up in the same room I've been in for 5 days I'm starving and I really have to pee.

As my sleepiness faded away I began to become more alert so I could her steady breathing coming from somewhere near me in the basement. It wasn't a man the breathing was too faint. It was a woman.

I struggled to sit up but once I did I could see a small woman yet her hair was covering her face. I scooted towards her and began to slightly kick her with my tied legs. I could see that she was tied the same way I was by the way she was laying.

After I kicked her a few times she began to twist and turn until she rolled over and I could see her face.

It was Aliyah. But what would they want with her?
What what Dion want with his own girlfriend?

She struggled to sit up but after doing so her eyes widened. She fixed her mouth to say something but by the white stuff around the opening of her mouth I could tell she was in the same predicament as me.

She fixed her mouth to talk but panicked when she realized she couldn't.

I she looked at me with fear in her eyes and I saw a tear fall. She raised an eyebrow and I shrugged.

This was gonna be hard but we were gonna get out.

I began to slide my tongue on the opening of my mouth. The glue began to soften so i slowly began to open my mouth squeezing my eyes shut in pain. I could taste the metallic taste of blood on my tongue. When my lips were fully separated I moaned in pain and sucked my lips in to take away some pain. When it became bearable I looked up at Aaliyah who had been staring with wide eyes.

"Oh my God" I whispered

"W-we gotta leave." I stuttered.

"Come here hurry."we scooted towards each other and went back to back.

"Untie mine and I'm gonna untie yours we have to leave."

She began to attempt to untie the knots using her nails. She scratched my skin a couple of times but I dealt with it. After a few minutes the knots began to loosen until all pressure taken off my wrists.

I quickly turned to Aaliyah and did the same using my nails as well. We both untied our own legs then I turned to her.

"This is gonna hurt but I have to."

I grabbed her face and used my nails to pick at the glue. I could see the blood begin to appear on her broken skin but I had to. After a few minutes it was off enough for her to tear them apart and she too moaned in pain.

We got up and hurriedly ran up the stairs and to the basement door. I reached for the knots only for it to be opened from the outside. We stared into the eyes of Jared and he smirked.

"Damn bitch you tryna escape again." He said before pushing us both down the stairs.

I had been calling Aaliyah all morning but I have yet to get an answer. Marcus, Cole, Me and unfortunately Amod was not in the car going on our way to Dion's. We had been looking for Journey everywhere so we were just gonna chill with Aaliyah and talk.

We pulled up to the nice house to see Aliyah's car and and a fancy Mercedes.

"So this why's he ain't been answering she over here being grown." Cole laughed as we got out the car. We walked towards the gates and went to the house to find the door already open.

"What the hell?" Marcus mumbled.

"Why the fu-" I was interrupted by a loud boom.

"PLEASE!" A woman screamed weakly from side the house.

We all pulled out our guns and quietly went into the house.

We walked through the house until the wails and pleads began to get louder.

I walked in the kitchen until I saw a slightly open door. I opened it quietly and my eyes widened at the sight. At the bottom of the stairs was a passed out Journey and A frightened Aaliyah covered in blood. She looked at me with low eyes as I crept down stairs with Marcus Cole and Amod right behind me.

The man followed her eyes and turned around. He aimed his gun yet I shot right between his eyes before he could fire. His body fell next to Journeys lifeless looking body.

"Fuck!" I yelled as I grabbed Aaliyah bridal style and Amod did the same with Journey.

"Clean him up man." I said to Cole and Marcus.

"Come on mod we gotta get them to the hospital."

He placed journey in the passenger seat and leaned the car back while I sat in the back seat cradling Aaliyah's body trying to find out where the blood was coming from. I lifted up her shirt and gasped when I saw a large bullet wound on her stomach.

"Shit!! Drive faster!" I yelled at Amod.

"Come on sis you got this don't close your eyes." I said as I slapped her face gently.

"You can't leave me too I gotchu sis come on."

We pulled up to the hospital and we both carried the girls into the hospital quickly. The doctors came out and began to prep the girls onto the gurney.

"I love you sis I love you Nene." I kissed both of their foreheads before before they took them.

About an hour later Blake Cole Marcus Amonnie A short Asian looking girl and Erica came rushing into the waiting room.

"How are they Erica asked frantically." I shrugged and began to cry.

"I don't know man...I don't know." She bit her lip and pulled me into a hug.

"It's okay baby we're here now they're gonna be alright." She said as she rubbed my back.

I couldn't do anything but pray that she was right.
