Feenin' 4 The DeGrates

DeVante Takes Whats His

A Month Later

1994

September In New York

Selena:

August is a month old. He's the love of my life, you can tell he has some Mexican in him but also some black in him. He literally makes everyone smile and he always moving. He can never be in one place or area for long.

"Look at uncle buddy getting so big.", Derek say holding August

"He is.", I smile

"Then he got long fingers like his uncle De.", Derek say

"Yeah.", I say as I touch August stomach and he laughs

Dalvin:

I was in the sound room kicking it with Selena and August. I didn't fail to notice that heat coming off DeVante. Now he was making me heated. Cause today he just snapping. Which is why I'm glad he left to cool out.

"Yo Derek, how my Aug doing.", I ask as I see Selena and Derek playing August

"Busy, this kid is busy.", Derek laughs

"Don't be hating on my baby boy Derek.", Selena said as she grabs August

"Aww let me see him.", I say taking August from her

DeVante:

I'm legit pissed off. I'm pissed with the industry, I'm pissed at my family, I'm pissed at Selena, heck I'm more pissed at Dalvin. I'm fed up now on the real. They keep playing with me like I'm a fucking joke.

"Yo De you ok.", Tim asks me

"Shut the fuck up.", I say putting one of my hand up

"Damn man my bad.", Tim says leaving

"Damn I need to smoke.", I say searching in my pocket for some cigarettes but got pissed when I couldn't find it

"Dude need a breather.", One nigga said

"Bitch shut the fuck up.", I spat in anger

No One:

DeVante temper tantrum lasted. It kinda made everyone afraid. Aaliyah thought his temper tantrum was funny as Selena and Dalvin made no attention. That was what pissed him off more. His anger was mainly cause of them. He got tired of sitting back.

"Yo chill.", K-CI said shaking his head

"Cedric shut the fuck up bitch I ain't in no mood to chill.", DeVante said while glaring

"This nigga just called me a bitch, fuck wrong with you.", K-CI said

"Two bit bitch I said shut up.", DeVante said as Aaliyah and Missy sat with popcorn watching

In the meantime Dalvin knew what was happening and frankly didn't care. He love DeVante cause that was his brother and had respect for him. But throwing a tantrum was childish as fuck. Especially while a baby was in there was ridiculous on DeVante part.

"Is he ok.", Selena ask noticing DeVante

"He fine.", Dalvin scoffed

"Dalvin i don't want August around him when he like that or anyone for that matter.", Selena said more concern with her baby

"He'll be fine baby.", Dalvin said while touching Selena waist and kissing August forehead and that's what really set DeVante off

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY SON!", DeVante yelled in anger as he busted in the room where Selena and Dalvin was at along with August

"Yo calm down with that yelling your going to upset him.", Dalvin says he was starting to become peeved off

"Man y'all think I'm a joke that's my son and I'm sick of tired of pretending. Selena give me my son now.", DeVante says glaring at Selena, he sat back long enough. He was going to fight for his

"You ain't taking my son.", Dalvin says stepping in front of Selena as she holds August, who start crying due to the noise

"Nigga fuck you that's my son, this whole shit is backwards anyway.", DeVante says angrily. Aaliyah and Missy saw the whole action like the rest so Aaliyah decides to stand up

"Y'all need calm down its a baby in here crying man.", Aaliyah says as Dalvin nod but DeVante glared at her

"Bitch that's my son and I ain't leaving till I get him or calm down either hoe.", DeVante says and that didn't sit well with Aaliyah

"Listen here you brown eyed mothafucka, don't you ever call me a bitch or a hoe again, cause I don't sleep around like you do crusty ass nigga. This is the main reason why Selena want Dalvin damn I hope August don't turn out like yo sorry ass.", Aaliyah spat back, which shocked them but he should've never called her out of her name

"For real like it's an August best interest to know me as daddy cause you got issues homie.", Dalvin says as Selena tries to console August

"Actually no it isn't, hate to step in here but-.", Derek says but too late DeVante had literally snatched August out of Selena arm and quickly walked out

"Stay back or you'll never see him again.", DeVante says towards Selena and Dalvin but mostly Selena

"Well damn.", Timbaland says in shock like everyone else

"Look he's right Selena you drove him too this point, all he wants to be is presence in August life and you two are making that difficult.", Derek says as Dalvin shakes his head and Selena knew he was right

Selena:

I left the studio quick there was no way I can sit there, knowing my baby boy is gone. Luckily DeVante called me and told me to come to his house. So I did, I felt I had too.

"DeVante.", I say walking in since I had a key anyway

"Here.", DeVante says holding August lovingly, it was almost creepy due to the fact how much August resembled DeVante

"Hey.", I smile

"Selena I'm sorry but all I want is to be in his life so Justin and Dyana can know about their brother.", DeVante says as I shed a tear as he August rests his little head on DeVante shoulder comfortably

"You can and you will.", I said not caring what Dalvin thinks anymore. DeVante would never harm August just be looking at the two now

"Really.", DeVante smiles while holding August

"Yes.", I said never moving from my spot.

For DeVante he got what he wanted but now he wanted Selena more than anything.
