The Hate and Love Game

Game #124

CHRESANTO POV

I walked into the bedroom to check on Ella. She was still asleep. I smiled, and climbed in the bed with her. I kissed her hand, and she slowly opened her eyes. "Good morning my beautiful queen." I said half smiling. She smiled. I watched as the sun shined in her eyes, making them change colors. They were clearly hazel now. "You're dressed. Going somewhere?" she asked trying to sit up. I helped her up before anything bad happened. "Just, gotta make a few runs. That's all." I said looking at her. She looked down. "I'm afraid to ask where." she said. I sighed. "Then don't. But, it's for a good cause. Know that. But I don't want you here alone so, Monse and Ruby are downstairs if you need them." I said getting off the bed. "I don't need them though. I need you." she said. I walked around the bed getting on my knees. "You have me. You've got the charm bracelet, and both necklaces. I'm here for you baby girl. I won't be long. I promise." I said kissing her cheek. "You promise." she asked. I nodded my head. "Promise." I said. She smiled kissing my lips. "I love you." she said. "I love you more." I said pulling away from her. She smiled again, and I pecked her lips one more time before leaving the room for good. I wrapped my hand around hers and stood up. "I want you to rest okay? You'll get better if you do." I said slowly back away from her, but not letting go of her hand. "I will." she said smiling. When I was too far to hold onto her hands anymore, I let go. "You better. I'll be back soon okay?" I said. She nodded her head blowing me a kiss. I blew her a kiss back and walked downstairs. "Y'all got it from here?" I asked both of them. "Yes sir, now you can go." Monse said walking towards me. "What you tryna rush me out the house for? Whatchu tryna do to my wife?" I asked both of them. Ruby smacked her teeth. "Nothing boy. Now bye." she said signaling me to go. I rolled my eyes and walked out the house. I was going to the jail to asked Shaw some questions I'm unsure about. I didn't want to though, because I don't want to see the face of a man who tried to kill my family one by one. It's the only way I can keep them all safe though. I'm the only man that can protect my family including my mother. Chris and Trey are next in line but they still have some ways to go of course. I got in my car and drove to the jail they said he'd be at. When I got there, I felt like I was already in a dangerous position. All the walls were painted this very ugly greenish blackish color. I shook it off, and walked over to the front desk. "Can I speak to Michael Shaw?" I asked the man behind the glass. "Who's asking?" he asked me. "Chresanto August." i said nervously. He eyes me for a moment then I guess, called the other officers to let them know who I want to see. After he hung up, he looked back at me. "Take a seat in 23B." he told me. I looked around to what he was talking about when I saw a seat, with a phone next to it. Guess I'm talking to him behind glass too. I took a deep breath sitting in the seat. I waited for a few moments when someone sat down in the seat behind the glass. He picked up the phone and so did I. He was giving me the death glare. "Hi Michael." I said looking at him. "What the hell do you want Chresanto?" he asked me. "I want to know who else was involved with your plan." I said. He chuckled. "What makes you think I'm going to tell you that after you got me put behind bars." he said. I shook my head. "I didn't. You did and thankfully your plan failed." I said. He shook his head smiling a little. "No, maybe it didn't. You said it yourself, someone is working with me. Wanna finish that for me?" he asked. I put my head down. "I don't want to loose anyone. I don't want to say goodbye to someone I care about. Not just my wife, but the rest of my family too. And for you to go after the ones I care most about because of my mistake, I don't appreciate that. I can't live a normal life because people don't accept me or my family. Please. I need to know before something bad happens again." I lifted my head back up to see what he'd say. He looked at me shaking his head. "I'm not saying anyone is or isn't, but I don't need a speech from you. It's not getting you anywhere with me. I don't care about you or your family. That's your problem. Not mine. I don't know them, so I really don't care what happens to them." he said shrugging his shoulders. I jumped to the glass with the phone still close to my face. "I'm not like you Michael! I don't give 2 shits about you! I don't want to ever be like you either! What I want!? I want you to tell me what the fuck is going on so I can make it right!" I screamed. Everyone turned their heads to me, but I didn't care. I want answers. I watched as he shook his head at me laughing. I punched the glass. "Fuck you bitch ass nigga. Fuck you!" I screamed. I threw the phone down, and stormed out of the police station. I can't stand this. I got in the car, and slammed the door. I stared at the jail for one minute, then I punched the steering wheel. Why is my life so complicated? I took a deep breath, and thought about where I could go next to figure this shit out. Then one person popped into my head. Arianna. . Big risk I know. But I know exactly what I'm doing. That's why I can't tell Ella about this. I drove to her house, and she was home. Her small car was parked in the driveway. I took another deep breath, stepping out the car and walking to her doorstep. I hesitated to knock, but I did. I waited a few seconds when someone opened the door. Arianna. She looked at me and smirked crossing her arms. "You got some nerve coming here. Did you bring the bitch too?" she asked looking around me. I rolled my eyes. "Don't call my wife a bitch okay? She's been through a lot these past few days. I have too, and I don't have time for drama." I said. She nodded her head. "I know. Heard it on the news. I feel bad for your family honestly. But anyway, why'd you come here?" She asked. "Thanks, and I need to talk to you. Can I come inside?" she hesitated, but stepped out the way for me to walk in. She closed the door behind me, and we both sat down on the couch. I put my hands together staring at the ground. "Uhh. Do you have anything to do with why Gabriella got shot on Thursday?" I asked looking back up at her. Her mouth dropped, and she chuckled a little. "Why would I try to kill someone? I know, I did say a few bad things about her that made you think I have something against her, but come on! I'm not that crazy Chresanto!" she said. I sighed. "How do you expect me to believe that?" I asked her. "Because, I've known you forever. I've been away from you for a few years, but I've known you since we were kids. I have history with you too. She's not the only one." She walked over to me, and sat down really close to me. "I know you liked me before. I liked you too though." she said putting her hand on my thigh getting closer to my private area. I felt a little bit horny, but I have to stand my grounds. I pushed her hand away from me and stood up. "I have a wife. I'm married with kids. I made a mistake with you once that could've messed up my entire life. I let you get into my head, and I can assure you it won't happen again. I didn't want to come here but I don't have a choice. My wife's life could be on the line right now." I said looking her dead in the eye. "I mean what I said." I added. She looked up at me, and sighed. "You're right. It's just, you have everything a woman could ask for. Gabriella is really lucky to have a guy with, a sexy smile, a deep sexy voice, sexy ass body. The perfect skin tone and a dick the size of a pistol. Not to mention your abs. To die for. Then, your so muscular and strong. Your hair is perfect even though you cut it all off. Your like the sexiest person alive right now. Call me crazy, but I think I want you." she said standing up walking towards me. "And you're still trying me." I said looking at her. She stopped walking towards me. "I can't help myself. You should go before, I try something I am going to regret. Just, let your wife know I'm sorry. And, I wish I could help you out Chresanto I really do. But I don't have anything to do with your wife getting shot. It was just as shocking to me as it was to you. Good luck though." she said half smiling. I looked at her for a moment, walking towards the door. I opened it. "Thanks." I said quietly. She smiled. "You're welcome. And, I hope we can put all this behind us. At least to still be friends." she said. I shook my head. "Sorry but I can't. Me and you got too involved. Gabriella probably wouldn't allow it anyway." I said. "It's not up to your wife." she said quickly. I wrinkled up my face. "It kind of is. You probably haven't got a good feeling or vibe of what love really feels like but I have. She has a say in everything I do, and I have a say in everything she does too. I hope you find the right one fast though. You really need someone to make all your decisions." I said laughing a little. She didn't say anything. I shook my head. "Bye Arianna." I said walking out the door.
