Black Hearts

Chapter Twenty-Two

Roni POV

(A Few Days Later)

I was laying in my bed, staring at my ceiling with nothing better to do. Its been a few days since the while gang rival smackdown and I haven't been to school since. None of the girls have.

Stephs parents have been spending more time with Steph, and all of them cried together when they were reunited, which was a great thing.

Cece's foster parents and her reuniting with them are unknown to me. Cece doesn't talk to them much, and they don't really care much about her.

Lei's parents were already packing her bags and about to get the fuck outta Clear Lake once they were together again. Lei told me that she convinced them after a 2 hour speech about how this place is the best place she ever lived at and how leaving would be bad.

The whole thing was on the local news, but thank god nobody in Clear Lake watches it and no names were mentioned because nobody knows.

Barely anybody was killed during the fight , which surprised the shit out of me. Only a handful were killed, and I know that it wasn't me who killed alot.

My aim was fucking off.

Mason and few others were found dead, but no investigation was in action, which I didn't complain about. If anyone found out that we had guns and were fighting... we'd be fucked!

Rosa never did tell me how the hell she has SWAT team shit in her backyard shed, and she better tell me soon.

I'm planning on confronting her bad ass self in school, because I'm finally going after these few days of taking in what happened. (After convincing my mom to let me go)

Other than Lei (which was only a few text convo), I hadn't talked to the girls at all. We definitely needed some space. It was the most scariest shit that has ever happened to us, and we needed some relax time.

I wondered the if the boys went to school too. I hadn't talked to them at all either.

I only went out once, and it was with Trey at the park.

It was like... we were a part of their group officially. And it was like we were a part of their gang.

I remembered when we all last saw each other... each boy and girl had their own way of showing how we cared for each other.

Dean and Steph couldn't let each other go. It was like they super glued their asses together. They didn't stop hugging and crying . I mostly felt bad for Dean this whole thing. He almost lost his True Love and he was the one hurting more than all the girls combined.

Rosa and Cooper didn't cry or anything. They didn't even hug that much. Rosa just held his arm as she laid on his shoulder while he rubbed her hair. It was a small gesture, but it held alot of meaning.

Jake and Cece held hands tightly, but before that, Jake scolded Cece so fucking much. He was saying how she could have gotten herself killed by going by herself where the rival gang was. Of course, the argued for a while but eventually they shut their asses up and held hands.

Me and Trey had to be the most ... non touchy? The only thing he did was have his arm around my shoulder for a little while and that was it. It wasn't as intimate as everyone else. Me and Trey didn't have a thing like everyone else. In other words... we ain't fucking together. At least we're on good terms though.

Lei was alone... she didn't have anyone to lean on. Mason was the only guy she had sort of liked, but she can't be with him obviously. She needed somebody. And I hope she finds somebody.
