Thug Love (Chresanto Story)

Four.

Carmen POV

It's been almost a month since Chresanto and I been together. And he's been the best boyfriend I've had so far. He treats me so well it made me realize that I'm important. He even got me a car and my drivers permit. I passed the test with flying colors. I still haven't spoken to my mama or my sister. To be honest, I don't want to. I just hope my little sisters' ok. I've also dyed my hair. My hair is now red and it compliments my skin tone and makes me look the age that I am. I'm tired of this baby face. Chresanto has been spoiling the hell out of me too. From the car, to the jewelry, and designer clothes, I feel as if I need to repay him. And I think I know the way how.

I know me being with Chres is a major risk, but I think I'm falling in love with this boy. I don't even know why he's in the game. He doesn't even seems the type. But I soon changed my mind about that when he bought me with him to handle some business. Apparently some gang called the Roulettes had told one of their people to get into Chres's gang to be a snitch. So I guess Chresanto wanted to get payback. When he took me inside of the office, there was this fine ass and I mean fine ass boy tied up. It hurt my heart to see him like that. But it's whatever. He had some jet black, curly hair that looked so soft. He had lips big ass Chresanto's and they were hella pink. And his eyes? Lord, his eyes were green and brown specks. Plus he was a lightbright? He could've got the works. Let me stop, thirsty moment. But soon as Chres ripped the duck tape off his mouth, his voice was deep as hell!

"You got 10 seconds to speak John" Chresanto yelled. I jumped a little so Chres went behind me, kissing my neck. I bit my lip as Chres homeboys watched me in awe.

"My name isn't John. It's Demetrius" he said. Chresanto shrugged his shoulders.

"Whatever the fuck your name is, whoever steal from me is a John Doe to me"

"Look man I--,"

BAM!

I opened my eyes and saw that pretty boy eyes open with a bullet smack dab in the middle of his forehead.

From that day on, I knew not to fuck with Chres like that.

Chres POV

I watched as John, Demetrius whoever the fuck he was blood ooze out of his head. I got one of my boys, Tremaine to clean up this mess and get rid of the body.

"Where you want me to take him?" Tremaine asked. I thought about it and I smiled.

"First, I want you to cut that head off. Then send it to the Roulettes. I want them to see what they put they boy through and not fuck with us again" I nodded my head.

"Nigga, you one crazy muthafucka. But iight, I got you fam" Tremaine spoke. I gave him one of our handshakes and a bro hug and went over to Carmen.

I ain't gone lie, Carmen been holding a young nigga down and she never asks for too much so I buy it for her. She insisted on not buying her a car and let her take the bus but what the hell I look like having my fine ass girl walk around looking like that? My baby deserve the best and that's what she deserves. Throughout the month she's been here, she made sure she tied me down. I even got rid of all my hoes for her so shit, she know she special. Ever since I met her I knew she was a keeper. She just got that persona and make it seem she feel for a nigga. And she not one of them fast type. She wanna wait 'til it's the right time but I'm not pressuring shorty. She know what's in my pants is hers and I know what's in her pants is mine.

I made my way over to Carmen and hugged her from behind but she jumped and held her hand to her chest.

"You aight?" I asked.

"I just saw someone die right in front of me. Would I be alright?" She snapped. My boys looked at me and had smirks on they faces but if they wanna keep a job and their life, they'll wipe that shit right the fuck off.

"Look, let's talk about this in the car aight?" I said. She shrugged her shoulders and said bye to all them thirsty niggas and went outside. I gave my boys a dap and I headed out. I saw Carmen in the car, facing the window. I went in the car, pushed the button and headed to the crib. When I heard Carmen sniff I didn't think she was crying or nothing. I thought that shit was allergies or something. But when I pulled up at the crib, she went out the car before I even pulled all the way up the damn driveway. Like damn! She unlocked the door with that ugly ass Hello Kitty key I got her and slammed the door right in my fucking face. Females be so disrespectful at times like damn. Didn't I give you a home to stay in, a car to drive your short ass in, AND gave up all my hoes for you to be my girl? And I get a door slammed in my fucking face. I rubbed my head, and my face, laughing a little and walked inside. I walked upstairs and heard the bath running so I assumed she was in there or our room. When I walked in, Carmen was looking through her shit all fast, scurrying around. Like I wanted to laugh cause her short ass runnin' around lookin' funny as hell.

"You wanna talk about it, Carr?" I asked, hugging her from the behind.

She shrugged her shoulders and started crying.

"You didn't even give him time to talk, Chresanto!" She cried. She must be serious cause shorty never used my full first name.

"So?"

"So? He could've been innocent! That could've been the wrong guy! You killed him with no emotion, no remorse" she said.

"Where you getting at with this?" I asked.

"You made me realize that you have different personalities. Which one are you know, huh?" She wiped her tears away.

"I'm Chres, your man. You think I'll hurt you?" I asked, walking towards her. She stepped back a little too fast and landed right on her ass. I kneeled down to her level and kissed her forehead. She was shaking and crying I didn't know she was this scared. I'll never lay a finger on a female but I guess I did scare her when I killed ole' dude. I hugged her and kissed her lips. She didn't kiss me back at first because she was shaking so I bit her lip a little and she kissed back. I rubbed all on her back before pulling away and looking through her puffy, brown eyes.

"I'm sorry for scaring you like that. But you need to know that I'll never hurt you, Carmen" I said, walking out the room.
