Chapter 15

Brianna

"So Kent broke into your home?" "Yes."  "How did you say he knew where you lived? When is the last time you two spoke?" The room was spinning. It felt like I had been here for hour, they just kept questioning me. I answered everything and then they started repating all the questions. I was so tired. They wouldn't even let Chris come in with me. Tears filled my eyes, I just wanted to sleep. I had to do a rape kit, and now I was here being interrogated. "Please I want to go home." I begged. "When you answer our questions." the cop said. "I already answered your questions, I already told you what happened, he broke in and he raped me!" I screamed.

There was a knock at the door, and a woman walked in. "Brianna Bailey?" I looked up at the dark skinned last with her deep red lipstick. "I'm your lawyer, your fiancee was recommended to me. My name is Ana." "Can I go home now?" I asked. "As soon as we straighten everything out." she dropped an envelope on the table. "This is an statement from Mijo Brooks, he was there when the shooting happened. Also, my client's rape kit that corroborates her story. Now if you have any evidence of a crime you can call us back and we'll be more then happy to come down here. If not I would like to take my client home, she's very tired."

Both the detectives sighed. "Brianna." Ana held out her hand and we walked out the room. She walked me out of the station where Chris and Mijo were waiting for me. I ran to him hugging him tightly. "Thank you Ana." Chris said. "I'll be in contact. "Get some rest Brianna." I just nodded my head at her. "Mijo you drive." Chris said handing the keys to him. He helped me into the back seat, and climbed into the back of the truck with me. I just cried into his chest eventually falling asleep.

Chris

Once we got home I carried Brianna in the house, I helped her shower and assisted her in getting into bed. "You need anything? "No." she mumbled. I climbed in bed with her holding her closely. "We gone be alright Bri." I told her as she started to cry. I really didn't know what to do to comfort her or make this right. I wanted to kill someone I just know Kamia had something to do with this, if not her then Chyna them. I pulled Bri closer to me trying and eventually falling asleep.

When I woke up Brianna was out of bed. "Bri?" I called. I climbed from the bed and walked around the house just calling her and she finally answered. "We're in here." she answered. I found her at the table with Mijo. "Morning baby." she said all smiles. "Hey, you good?" I was confused why was she smiling? She kissed me I looked at Mijo and he shrugged his shoulders. She handed me a plate of breakfast: eggs, bacon, and  pancakes. "I want to talk to you about something." she said as I sat down. "What's up."

"I'm ready to marry you. I wanna do it today." I dropped the form from my mouth. "Today? We haven't even started planning, let alone set a date." "I don't care. I wanna do it today." "you sure you wanna rush this?" "I just wanna move along from all this. I'm ready to be with you and you only. I'm done with everyone else." She said looking at me with worried eyes.  "I wanna give you the best wedding possible love. Let me set some stuff up I promise you we'll get married this weekend." "You promise?" "I promise." I leaned in to kiss her.

"Okay. I have the perfect dress in mind." She said leaving the table. I sighed once she was gone. "Mijo, I need you to keep a trail on her, I want you everywhere she goes you understand. Don't let her outta your sight." "I got you cuz."

Kamia

I waited outside of Brianna's house. I watched as she came out with her security. I just needed to make sure she was okay after everything that happened to her yesterday. I sent Kent over here to scare her cause I knew Chris wasn't home. She would feel unprotected and she would come back to me. That was a major fail cause now Kent is dead and she might be going to prison for the rest of her life for murder. Either way I was screwed and all I really wanted was her back in my life.

Once they pulled out the driveway I kept a close trail on them being careful to not be seen. They stopped a few places. Mostly dress stores she must be going to some fancy party or something. It wasn't until they pulled into the parking lot of a bridal shop that I felt like my heart dropped to my abdomen. What the hell was she about to do in there? I put on some shades and a baseball cap I had and walked into the store. The associates showed her to a section and her and her security were given wine as they waited.

I peeped around some corners and was doing fine until one of the associates walked up behind me. "Can I help you find something?" "No. I'm just browsing." "Are you looking for anything in particular?" "I got it lady now back off." I semi yelled at her. She quickly walked away from me leaving me to continue peeping around corners. Pretty soon I watched Brianna come out of the room with this dress on. It was gorgeous. It really didn't look like a wedding dress so my anxiety about it kind of died.

"What do you think Mijo?" I heard her ask. He shook his head no. "You're right, this isn't me. Maybe something more simple." she said. "Your wedding." he said. "Can I look around some more?" she asked, the attendant. "Sure. Let me know if you need assistance." She took off gleefully skipping to the dresses. I watched as she scanned through them all until she stopped at this one. It was in plastic but she had a huge smile on her face while looking at it. "Mijo! I think I found it!" she screamed.  She hauled ass to the dressing room and I couldn't help but laugh at her enthusiasm.

A few minutes after the dude retrieved the lady who was helping before, Brianna came out the dressing room in a body fitting long lace dress. It was more like her, float at the bottom, form fitting at the top. "I need a head piece with flowers, do you have anything?" "we actually just got some cute flower pieces in, I'll bring a few over." she said. She smiled at the dude and pulled him into a hug. I can't for the weekend, my wedding gonna be so dope." she said.

My heart dropped. Her wedding? I ran out the store, I can't believe she's marrying him. I shook my head as I sat and cried in my car. Nothing that I've done even broke them apart. What the fuck do I need to do? Kidnap her ass...
