Perfect. Ain't. So. Perfect.

Chapter 15

It was Prosper. No how could this happen. I was with him yesterday. He just texted me hours ago. What happened to him? No. Why now? Why now?

The weird thing about him laying there was he didn't have any blood around him. I picked up my phone and called the police.

"911 what's your emergency?"

"There's a dead body on the corner of Park St. It's my friend Prosper."

"Okay, I'm sending police and paramedics as fast as possible."

"Thank you."

I stood there until the police got there. They asked me questions and then told me to leave the area.

I was so heartbroken that I didn't wanna go home. I texted Rayvon to come get me and he did.

"Hey Ciara you okay? You look like you've been crying."

"No I'm not okay. My dad is gay and was cheating on my mom with my boyfriend Prospers dad so she beat him halfway to death and then went to jail. The night of the party when I met you a guy kidnapped me and asked me for help to find my boyfriends dad so they could kill him. The same day that I went on a date with you I went on a date with him so he wouldn't be home so they could kill his dad. I was gonna tell him about what I did but my phone rang and it was the guy and they told me they accidentally killed my father too. I told them if they got my mom out of jail the next day like they promised I wouldn't tell. My mom came and got me from the foster home today and adopted my friend. We settled into the new house and I saw text messages from Prosper and he was upset because his dad was killed. So I went for a walk and found him laying dead on Park St. He didn't have blood on or around him so he hasn't been shot so I don't know what happened." I just let it all out and found myself crying in Rayvons arms.

"It's okay, you were only doing it to get your mom back home. You didn't wanna hurt those people. It's not your fault. I promise. I'm always here for you. Remember that." he said kissing my forhead.

"Thanks. Can we go somewhere to eat I'm hungry. But I think I'm gonna feel bad for eating."

" is Chinese good? And no it's fine. You'll get better trust me. I Love you Ciara. I really do."

Did he just say? Wait? He can't be talking to me.

"I love you too Rayvon." He grabbed my hand after I said that and I knew he was really talking to me.
