Flames Of Love

*Daron*

Daron watched Jinae's face as they entered the big jewelry store . The store which he had bought the ring he proposed to her from . This was priceless , she was in shock and also in aw as they walked . "This is beautiful" She said . "I know babe" He replied to her and gave her a kiss on the cheek .

She narrowed her eyes at him in a playful matter . "Hey , if you get mama the same exact ring , mama will give you something in return" She said . "Like what" he asked curiously . "Just chill" she chuckled and nudged him . He laughed and rubbed his hands together. They both walked to a glass case with the most beautiful sets of jewelry you could ever imagine . "On second thought ..." She said as she glanced at a ring that caught her attention . "I thought so " he said back . They laughed together .

As they browsed upon the jewelry cases , Daron saw a painful look spread across Jinaes face . When she caught his worried eyes she said " I'm fine babe , just a contraction , nothing new " She smiled and in return he smiled back and went back to browsing . "Can we get some assistance" Jinae yelled over to the next case down where a woman stood gazing at them . "No problem" she said with a smile and came their way .

Daron watched Jinae as the woman asked "what size ring are you ma'am" Jinae glanced at him in a playful matter . "A size 10" He jokingly told the woman . Jinae playfully pushed him . "I see" the woman started as she looked down at the noticeably large baggage Jinae carried in front of her . "Trust me , I have three kids , I know how it feels when your fingers can't fit into your engagement ring anymore" she laughed . "Yeah . Miss water works over here been crying all day" Daron said . The woman laughed in reply .

Jinae pointed to a ring , the woman grabbed it . "Is it okay if I grab our sizing ring" She asked . "Sure" replied Jinae and the woman walked to a case on the far side of the building .

Jinae hunched over the case in pain . "Babe . You okay ? Contractions ?" He asked , there was pain written on her face . "Yeah , that one was more pain --" She was interrupted when a gush of water poured from under the sun dress she was wearing and another contraction hit . Daron grabbed her around the waist with the happiest and brightest smile ever . "She's ready baby ! You ready ? Let's go get you to the hospital . She's ready to see Daddy" He said joyfully as he helped Jinae towards the exit .

Jinaes knees buckled as another contraction hit . "I hope we make it or I'm gonna ruin your car" Jinae laughed through the pain . "That's okay , do the breathing exercises baby . Remember the old lady taught you ?" He could tell another contraction hit Jinae as he picked Jinae up to carry her . They got closer to the exit and no one was prepared for what they saw next .

Over a dozen men with automatic weapons stood before them . Jinae breathed in panic as another contraction hit . "Oh my god Daron , who are they ? What's going --" Before she had time to finish they men started firing , Daron ducked behind the nearest case getting Jinae to safety . Jinae was panicking and her contractions were getting closer . She was scared . "Hold on baby , just a little longer ." And with that he pulled out two guns from his waist .

He sprinted to the nearest case as he shot back at the men shooting at them . Before ducking behind the next case of jewelry for cover he got two of the men in the head . He came back up and shot two more and took one to the shoulder . He gritted his teeth in pain as he hunched behind the case .

The firing stopped and the only thing you could hear were the four employees screaming . Four single shots were made and the screaming ceased . Daron took this moment to get up and fire a few more , catching three more men , before they fired back , one of the guys came from behind the case with a hysterical Jinae . With the gun to her head he said "I'll blow this bxtch brains out nigga" The guy had on a ski mask but he recognized the voice from somewhere . Daron pointed the gun at him .

Jinae moaned in pain between her hysterical breathing . He legs gave away but the man yanked her back up by her hair . "Stand up bxtch !"

This infuriated Daron , but he was stuck , he didn't know what to do . "Bruh , please , she's in labor man . What ever beef we got , that's between us but --" Jinae had bent down just enough to wearily pull her gun from a band she kept around her left leg for protection and unexpectedly shot the man who held her at gun point . The guy standing near her ran toward her and she shot him clear face as Daron turned his gun to the other men and started shooting they had raised their guns .

From the corner of his eyes he saw Jinae on the floor yelling in pain . "Daron , she's coming" . He lost focus behind the case and was shot twice . He tried to get up but everything turned into a blur , he fell and then darkness took him away .

Daron focused on a light , it was a blur at first and then he realized what it was . It was the lights on the ceiling of the jewelry store . He was more focused and he sat up and a sharp pain rung in his side and shoulder where he had been shot .

He could hear sirens getting closer and closer . Jinae . He thought . "Jinae !!" He yelled as he painfully got up . He glanced around and saw the dead bodies he took out and the four of the store . He turned to where he last saw Jinae and saw a puddle of blood where she had been . He fell in shock . He couldn't bare it , he just couldn't . He yelled in pain and punched the floor in fury .

The sirens got even closer and as much as he didn't want to leave he painfully left before he was spotted .
