Just Being Honest

White Doves

JoJo POV
I'm still waiting to see what up with Lee and Nate. I'm just hoping for the best because I don't need anymore deaths right now. Drew went and got Aaliyah from the babysitter. Jay friend brother had brung him up to the hospital. I'm sitting there trying my best not to cry in front of Jay and Aaliyah. I'm trying to be strong but it's seems I can't. I just imagine how Aaliyah life is going to be without her mother. She is going to need her but can't have her because some careless person.

Leland and Tommy finally showed up. Leland looked like he was cry the whole way here. He just came over and hugged me. I have so many things running the my mind right now that I needed that hug. The doctor came walked out and calling the family of Lee Niller. I stood quickly and walked over to him.

He said " Lee is doing well he only was shot in the leg. He passed out because he had a episode with his lupus. But he should be okay."

I instantly got on my knees and thank god.

Drew asked " You haven't heard anything about Nate?"
I said " No but I'm praying for the best."

Another doctor walked into the waiting room and called out for Nathaniel Hobble. Drew and I walked over to the doctor.

He said " Well Nathaniel now is stable. He was shot in the abdomen that is one of the worst places to get shot. I'm going to do everything I can to make sure he pulls through though."

I just hope he make it out of this alive.

I asked " Could we see him?"
Doctor John said " Yeah you can see but he is still unconscious."

I just shook my head and made my way to his room. Drew grabbed Aaliyah and woke up Jay. They came in the room about a minute after I did. He was just lying there no expression on his face. I wanted to cry but I didn't need the kids seeing me cry. I walked out the room and lay my head back against the door. I just couldn't believe this happened. An two officer started walking over to me.

The woman officer said " Um sir I know this is a bad time for you but I was wondering could you tell me what happened."
I said " No it's fine. Me, My brothers, and Our best friends where enjoying our dinner. We were getting ready to leave and we're walking out the door to the car. There was a group of boys arguing and everything just happened so fast. All we heard were gunshots and the police pulling up."
She said " I'm sorry for your lost believe me this is something I will take personal because it happened to people who had nothing to do with it."

I thanked her and then walked over to Lee room. He was wide awake and talking to Leland and Tommy. I walked in and he looked at me and we both started crying. I ran over to him and just hugged him. I don't know what I would have done if I lost either one of my brothers.

Lee said " What up with Joyce and Nate?"
I looked away and said " Joyce died and Nate is still fighting for his life."
Lee started crying and said " Why her now her daughter has no mother. This is really fucked up."
I said " Yeah I know she never going to be able to watch her grow up and Aaliyah going to need her one day but she won't get the chance to have her."

King then walked in the room with flowers and a big teddy bear. I want Lee to give King a chance. I know I can't say anything but he deserves to be happy and by the way he smile when he see him. I think he the one to make him happy.

King said " JoJo there someone in the waiting room asking for you."

I walked out the room and went to the waiting room. I seen him look at me.

Lee POV
I was really scared when I got shot. I didn't know what was going on. But I'm glad I am still here. I couldn't give up on my life so quick I had to many people to help or take care of.

When King walked into the room with the flowers I knew he was the one. Just seeing him made me think of how much he wants to be with me and only me.

Leland asked " Are you going to be with this man or not?"
I said " Yes I am going to be with him."
King said " Are you for real?"
I said " Yes I want to be with you."

He got off the bed and jump up and down like a big kid. It was really funny because people who were walking by were looking like what's wrong with him.

Leland and Tommy were on the floor from laughing so hard. It was something we needed a laugh because things aren't happy right now.

JoJo POV
I asked him " What are you doing here?"
He said " I want you. I realized that I can't live with out you in my life. I messed up yes by not being completely honest with you. But since you walked away from me that day I did nothing but think about you. I even came by your house but Nate said we had nothing to talk about."
He started crying and said " I lost everything my mother died, I lost my job. Before my mom died she told me to find the one to make me love them for a long time. That person was you I can't be with out you."
I said " Dusty why are you just now telling me this?"
He said " Because I had to find myself and be a better person for you. Also I thought you were dying and I needed to tell you this before it was too late."

He started saying something else but I just kissed him. Leland and Tommy were walking over to us and Leland said " Yessss you better get your man."

I started laughing because he came out of nowhere. I walked him into Lee room because I know he probably drilling King with questions about who wanted me. Drew walked into Lee room with Aaliyah and Jay.

He said " I have to go pick up the kids so I'll be right back."

Aaliyah looked at me, smiled, and gave me a hug. It was so beautiful. Jay hopped up in the bed with Lee of course. I stayed in Lee room for about 10 more minutes then I went to Nate's room. He started to wake up when he seen me walk in the room. I smiled really hard because I'm glad to see he is fighting for his life.

He looked at me and then looked at Dusty. He smiled extra hard. I just rolled my eyes because he the one that told me to give him another chance. But I didn't want to so he just agreed with me. I sat down on his bed.

He said " I love you and no matter what I want you to stay happy. You deserve someone to give you the world and back."

I just shook my head because I didn't know where that came from.

I said " I love you too forever and always."

Drew had walked into the room with the triplets. They ran over to the bed like they been knowing Nate for years. It was beautiful how they just connected with him instantly. I walked back to go to Lee room. Dusty had stayed in the room with Drew so they could talk. I went in Lee room and layed down. I was tired and need some sleep.

The Next Day
I seen Lee was outta and wondered where he had went to. I got up and walked to Nate room. It seems everybody was in here laughing and having a good time. I walked in the room and everybody looked at me and smiled.

We laughed and talked for hours until Nate didn't look right. His heart rate started beating out control the doctor pushed us out the room. I just prayed that he make it out.

About 20 minutes later the doctor walked out.

He said " I'm sorry but he didn't make it."
I yelled " What the hell you mean he didn't make it? He was just fine laughing and being his normal self. What went wrong? Why is my brother not here anymore?"

I felled to the ground because I can't believe this happened. Why him man?
