The Hate and Love Game

Game #122

GABRIELLA POV

I was flipping through the channels seeing my face on every news channel there was. I will never forget last night. I just hate thinking about it too. There was no good part of last night other then before we left the house. My body is so sore and it hurts to move. I just want to go home and lay down. A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door. "Come in." I said as loud as my voice could go. The door slowly opened, and it was Chres. He had a bag of food in his hand. I smiled as her closed the door behind him. "Hi baby." I said. He put the stuff down. "Good morning my love. How you feelin?" he asked kissing my lips. "I'm in pain. Just, not as bad as last night. I wanna go home Chres." I said pouting. He grabbed my hand gently, and kissed it. "You'll get better I promise. And, I want you to come home too but you have to stay for a few more days." he said. I sighed. "But I got you some breakfast." he said holding up a bag of food. It was pancakes and sausage...from McDonalds. :) I laughed. "Thank you honey." I said poking my lips out. He smiled kissing my lips again. The television ended up catching his attention though. "What the..." he said looking at it. "She looked like she was about to die. Like, the man who I think was her husband, he kept telling her things to keep her awake I guess. She looked like she was in so much pain. I had to call the police." a man said standing right in front of the place where it happened. Wow. "Yeah, she was running down the street bare foot like she was being chased by a dog. Then the man shot her. I guess she was running from him. But you'd expect her to, just lay there on the ground but she forced herself back up." a woman said standing in front of the spot where we were standing before I ran. "I was so scared when I heard the gunshot. Then the poor woman bleeding to death. I, I saw her on that one movie. Big hit now and she's an amazing actress. Seeing her last night running for her life was so crazy. But, her husband was real brave to stand in front of the man with the gun trying to keep his wife awake and alive." a women said standing in front of police cars. "Last night Gabriella August, actress from movies was shot in the stomach from the side. Not only that, but kicked in the mouth by former jail prisoner, Michael Shaw. Witnesses say their was a long conversation between Shaw and Mrs. August's husband, Chresanto August while she was lying there bleeding. Shaw had the gun pointed to her head for the longest. Witnesses also say that the couple was seen rushing out of a restaurant minutes before Mrs. August was shot. She lost a lot of blood and broke some bones, but is surprisingly still alive. She might not recover quickly, but a strong and brave woman like her is bound to soon." a reporter said. This brought tears to my eyes. I didn't not want to think about last night. Then hearing it on the news? "Wow." Chresanto said looking back at me. Tears were rolling down my face. "Oh baby girl, don't cry." he said climbing in the hospital bed with me. He gently pulled me closer to him and stroking my hair. "I can't help it." I said weeping. "I just want to see you smile. The thought isn't the best thought, but we have to face the fact that, that happened and the whole world knows now. Don't even focus on last night though. Focus on getting better. Look, I know what'll make you happy." he said turning on Tom and Jerry. I laughed a little looking at him. He wiped my tears away with his hand. "You're fine baby girl. Okay?" he said. I nodded my head sniffling a little bit. He smiled. "I love you." he said poking his lips out. "I love you too." I said kissing his lips. When I pulled away, the door swung open. It was Ray, Monserarrate, Jacob, Ruby, Cj, and Davanna. I was speechless. It's been a long time since we've all been in the same room. I wasn't prepared for this. My heart started beating quickly. Chresanto looked at me. "Breathe slow baby. Calm down." he said touching my forehead. I nodded my head trying to breathe slower. I was as Chresanto stood up in front of everyone. "What the hell are y'all doing here?" he asked all them. Everyone started screaming at once. "Hey!" Chresanto yelled. They all stopped talking. "My wife isn't feeling well right now. She's in bad pain and yelling isn't going to make it better. Now let's do this like 6 year olds. Starting with Jacob, we'll work our way down the line to speak." he said getting them all under control. "I'm worried about you Gabriella. I didn't want to hear that you got shot last night on the news while walking through the mall." Jacob said. My eyes started watering. "Yeah, and you're like a sister to me. I don't like how the world is throwing bad things at you. A mom of 4, you deserve much better then this." Monse said. Here come the waterworks. "You're always scaring me El. Before they said you were alright, I was in tears for you girl. Don't scare me like that anymore." Ray said. Tears slowly fell down my cheeks. "I remember the last time I talked to you at my house. And, I didn't want that to be the last. I love you to death Gabriella. You be scarin me a lot though." Craig said. "You helped me out a lot hermanà. Hearing that you got shot and all the other things that happened to you wasn't something that I wanted to hear from the television. I'm here now and I just want to make sure you're okay." Ruby said. I smiled. "I can't imagine a world without Gabriella. Like, you've helped every one of us in this room at least once. Even Chresanto. It'd be hard for me to say goodbye." Davanna said. The room went silent and no one said anything till I sniffled. They all looked up at me, but Chresanto ran over to me. "No tears Ella. Do you understand me?" he said wiping my face again. He kissed my lips and I nodded my head. Everyone else gathered around my bed getting on their knees.

ROC ROYAL (CHRESANTO) POV

It was hard for me to go to sleep last night knowing my baby was in the hospital. The memory of last night haunted me in my sleep. And knowing that our friends care about her this much really made me smile. But not seeing her cry. I kissed her lips again and again. "Awee. Y'all are so cute." Monse said smiling at us. Everyone looked at her. "What? Ray does not do that to me." she said wrinkling her face up at all of us. Ray smacked his teeth. "Don't act like I don't kiss you babe." Ray said looking at her. "Not the way Chresanto kisses Lala." she said looking back him. "Anyway.." Cj said turning his attention back to me and Ella along with everyone else. "How you feelin?" Jacob asked her running her leg through the covers. She half smiled wiping her face again. "Better now that I have all of you guys here." she said. I smiled. "I know you're really in pain though. I wish I could take it all away for you." Davanna said. "Thanks." Ella said. "But was that seriously your stepdad Trey?" Ray asked me. I sighed and put my head down. "Yeah, it was. He wasn't suppose to hurt her though. He wanted to kill me!" I said. "What exactly happened last night though?" Ruby asked. "I took her out to dinner, and someone was watching us so we left early. Then when we got to the car, Michael was there and we started talking. Next thing you know, Gabriella took off running. I was about to run after her, but he pushed me down and ran after her before I could. When I finally caught up with them, she was bleeding on the ground and he had her arm. We stood there a while talking, and my mom shot him from behind." I said. Everyone's mouth dropped including Ella's. "Your mom?" Cj asked. I nodded my head. "I always loved your mom. She go hard." Ray said getting on his phone. I chuckled, not because it was funny, but because it was stupid. "I'm just happy you're okay." Jacob said. Some more tears fell down her cheek but she managed to smiled. "Thank you Afro puff." she said. We all laughed. "I feel like I could've prevented all that though." I said looking at her. She touched my cheek with her hand. "Baby, I ran away and I'm sure you didn't see that coming. There really wasn't much to do from there on." she said. "I could've if I didn't take you out though. I just can't forgive myself. I feel like I'm the reason why your rib is broke, you have stitches and lost all that blood. And there's nothing I can do to turn back time." "It's not your fault. I'll get better. You told me to focus on getting better and that's what I'm trying to do Chresanto. But it seems like you're the one still focused on what you didn't do last night." I thought about what she said for a moment. "Seems like it doesn't it?" I asked looking at her. She laughed. "Just a little. Thank you for worrying though, but I'm fine and I want you to stop feeling guilty. Okay?" I nodded my head. "For you baby girl." I said poking my lips out. She smiled and leaned into kiss me. "I love you" I said in between the kiss. "I love you more." she said smiling. I pulled away. "No you don't." I said kissing her forehead. "Oh my gosh Y'all are way too cute. This right here must be a fairy tale or something because this love doesn't exist in this world." Monse said. "Bruh, you ain't even seen half of it yet." I said looking at her. Everyone laughed.

That was just the next day after Gabriella got shot. Something else was suppose to happen in the last chapter, but I didn't put it in. And I hope you guys didn't think the last chapter was too dramatic and kind of short. Nor this one. I just wanted to show you guys what happened after that night in this chapter. Overall, I hope you liked both chapters. ;) And I finally got a picture of Gabriella's wedding ring! Off to the side...
