Love Me for Me

Chapter Twenty-Two

Recently Hayden has been hanging around me lately. He refuses to leave my side and even though I love the attention he sometimes becomes to overbearing. He is always looking out the windows making sure we are not being followed and not to mention he has doubled down on the weapons he now has. He has guns stashed everywhere in the house and that shit ain't safe especially not with Ciara in the house. If she was to find one of them guns and hurt herself I would not be able to forgive myself or Hayden. Right now I was lying in bed trying to figure out what I was going to do about this charity ball we were having at the restaurant. It was so much to do and Angie couldn't handle it on her own. "What you thinking about it," Hayden said coming into the room half naked. "Just thinking about all I got to do."

"Like what?"

"The restaurant is having a charity ball and there is a lot to do and I don't know if I can do it all." He came and sat on the bed, "Look I haven't hired the security yet so Imma need you to stay where I can protect you. I can't do what I need at the restaurant."

"Hayden I can't just stay in the house and put my life on hold. Until I feel like I need to stay low then maybe I will but for now I have things I need to do and I'm not fin to let Kyle or whoever else stop that," I said getting up and going to the closet. He stayed quiet for a while and then sighed and got up. "I will take you to the restaurant but first I gotta take you somewhere else more important."

"Where?"

"Don't worry about it," was all he said before walking out. I know I made him mad but honestly I have been running from Kyle most of my life and right now I'm tired of this shit. I was tired of running and I wasn't anymore. He could get me body guards but at the end of the day I knew that shit wouldn't work. If Kyle wanted me he would get me; no running from that. I sighed and picked out my black and grey Aztec tights and a black crew neck. I went and took a shower and then I blew out my hair. I put it up in a high ponytail. I put on my clothes and then added my black timbs and silver necklace Hayden bought that had my name on it. I did my makeup putting on a bright red lipstick to make it all pop. I looked at myself in the mirror and by now you could see my baby bump. I sighed rubbing my belly hoping this baby made it to the world. I grabbed my phone and headed downstairs.

When I made it downstairs Hayden was sitting on the couch with his head glued to his phone. I just shook my head and went into the kitchen cause I was starving. I saw there was nothing in the fridge so I decided I would just have fruit and water. I put everything in a container and headed to the door. I didn't say anything to Hayden I just walked to the truck and got in. Soon as put a grape in my mouth he came out and got in. I soon finished my fruit and to be honest a nigga was still hungry, I don't know how them skinny chicks do it but this one needed some real got damn food. I didn't say anything but just finished my water and looked out the window. When I was getting deep into my thoughts I got a call and it was from lil bit and boy did I miss her.

Me: What's up my lil bug
