A Thug's Love Never Dies: Chapter 30

~Chanelle P.O.V.~

I woke up a few hours later feeling a lot better. I opened my eyes and moved a little only to feel something in between my back and the back of the couch. I turned my head around and saw Ty squished between me and the couch but sleeping so peacefully. I smiled to myself and turned my head back, I saw Arlie in the arm chair with Trey fast asleep on his chest.

"You're awake?" Arlie chuckled as he turned my direction.

"Yeah, when did they fall asleep?"

"About an hour after you did, Trey was originally cuddled in front of you but ended up getting off and coming over to me." He smiled as he looked down at him

"Aww, how was he before he fell asleep?"

"He was real quiet, like not laughin or playin, Ty was runnin around and jumpin on my lap then settled behind you, I'm surprised you didn't feel him. He was crawling all over you." He laughed

"I was knocked out, and awh. I knew I should have taken the boys away from that so this wouldn't have happened." I sighed, I saw Trey start to get restless on Arlie's chest.

"Don't beat yourself up about it. What's done is done you just now need to think what you're going to do. I will help you as much as I can. First off are you going to talk to Leah at all anymore?" He asked

"No. If I see her I swear I will knock her the fuck out if not kill her."

"Alright then, Nelle you can't go killin her." I stuck my tongue out at him. "But are you gonna talk to Lexis today?"

"Probably not today, I'll probably talk to him tomorrow morning." I sighed

"Nelle I think it would be better to talk to him sooner than later."

"I took my ring off and set it on the counter and left him crying. I think he needs to gather himself."

"You took off your ring?" His mouth dropped. I slowly nodded my head and looked down at my ringless hand. "Damn" He slipped through his teeth.

"I know, so I want to just give him some space for now and we will talk in the morning."

"Okay, you're still let him be apart of Trey and Ty's life?"

"Without a doubt"

"Do you still love him?" I looked up and saw Arlie's eyes lock on mine. I felt my heart start to burn. Tears were welling in my eyes enough to blur my vision but not actually drip down my face.

"I still love him, I will always love him." I finally choked out. After everything we've been put through, we've hurt each other but I could never stop loving him.

"You think you two will work it out?"

"I don't know. I honestly don't know. I want to make it work" I sighed and rested my head back down on the pillow.

~Leah P.O.V.~

It's been a couple days since I've seen DeShawn. I didn't tell Lexis that I was currently in a relationship with this guy who was abusive. He would slap me, grab my wrists with so much force it would leave bruises, punch me, bottom line was he was abusive. I was with him because he took me and DeShawn under his roof.

I've been with Daniel, my boyfriend, for about 3 or 4 years. It was on and off again. I hated living with him but it gave my son a place to stay, so I put up with him. I was scared beyond belief of him. He would always check my phone or just check me in general to make sure I wasn't sneaking around or cheating on him. DeShawn picked up problems while he was with Daniel. I was working long hours at a bank. So during the day he was with Daniel. My family doesn't live out in Oakland with me so I can't leave him with anyone except Daniel. The scary part was, I have no idea what he would do to DeShawn.
