TOY SOLDIERS

Shook

Snake had silenced Troy shooting him in the side of his head. Everyone looked at Snake with a puzzled look.

"Fuck you do that for"? Tate asked Snake with his face frowned up as he stormed over towards him.
"He was talking too much shit for me yo" Snake admitted with a nervous look on his face.
"But nigga that wasn't your order"Tate yelled, about to grab Snake up until Drake pulled him back.  "You out of line nigga" Drake told Snake, pointing his finger at him.
Dru inhaled deep as she squatted down to the floor holding her head... This was to much for her and to top it off she was missing Zy. She had talked to him earlier and broke the news about Jerry. Zy told her he was cutting his visit short and would be on the next flight to L.A but she told him no, she heard his mother in the background so that confirm to her that he was really in Houston like he said he was. She even talk to Dru and told her how sorry she was about the lost of Jerry she knew him to.

Tate and Snake continued to fuss back and forth...

"He didn't know shit and even if he did he wasn't gonna tell us shit. It was like hitting a dead end Tate"Snake argued.
"You didn't even wait bitch" Tate fussed trying to get at Snake but Drake held him back.
"Ughhhh"Briana let out her frustration.
Everyone stood stuck that Snake made a shot without Dru's permission she didn't even know what to say to him it was so much anger in her.
"Tate call the clean up crew and let's be out... I give up for tonight" Dru said in a tired but frustrated voice.

Tate followed her orders and once the clean up crew came they were out.

                             Later on:

When they got back to Dru's spot, she went upstairs without a word to anyone and took a nice, hot steamy shower.  Her mind was about to explode and she needed to release as soon as possible. With all this shit going on she knew it was only a matter of time before shit hit the fan.   Snake stood outside making an anonymous call on his phone. The male on the phone answered and Snake went straight in from there...

"Hello... Yeah it's me... Yes... Plan b... She knows" he said ending the call.

Snake walked back in the house and stopped when he seen Dru at the bar area in her house taking a shot. He walked over to her and stared in her pretty, but stressed out eyes.

"You okay Dru"? He asked.
"I just wanna find my father's killer and I feel like I'm hitting a dead end" she said feeling pitiful as she covered her face with her hands.
"It's gonna be okay baby" said Snake rapping his arms around Dru.
He kissed her forehead with his arms still around her "I love you Dru and I know you hate me right but I'm sorry truthfully for everything" he said comforting her.

Even tho Snake had a heart for Dru he knew he had to follow the orders he was giving. Snake had always had some grimy shit with him, but everyone wasn't prepared for Real Snake's true colors to reveal. The question was would they be able to handle it and all his dirt little secrets????

The night was beginning to wined down and the crew were becoming restless. With all the things that had transpired these last few weeks everyone was just ready for a break. Especially Dru and they could see she was tired and fed up, but what everyone liked the most was that she wasn't a quitter. Dru went hard for her crew and that's why she put up so much with Snake's bullshit because he put in alot of work and she wasn't gonna let their beef get in the way. Drake stood off in the corner and watched his cousin drown her last little bit of liquor out of the bottle. It hurt him to see her so down and stressed, Dru looked as if she hadn't slept in days. Sliding off he walked upstairs to her bathroom and closed the door. He looked around the bathroom before his eyes landed on her cabinet under her sink. He took a gift box out his back pocket that he had gotten for her and hid it under the sink. He planned on giving it to her a while ago, but never had the time so he figured if something happened to him this would be something she could remember him as. He didn't think of how she would find it and he didn't care if it took years for her to discover it, he felt like this would be better to do than to give it to her. Once he was done he flushed the toliet to make it look like he had went to the bathroom and left out.

              In the middle of the night Dru'ona tossed and turned, on the couch in her sleep as sweat poured down her body. Her breathing became real heavy right before she opened her eyes. The room was dark with only the light from the TV and she realized everyone was gone.
When she sat up she came face to face with Cam who was sitting on the edge of the couch by her feet. When their eyes met her heart skipped a beat. "Oh my gosh Cam"She said as tears whelped in her eyes. She couldn't believe her eyes, the first of love of her life was sitting here in front of her when he was supposed to be dead.
"I thought you were gone baby"She said.
He smiled " You look beautiful Dru just as beautiful as before. And Millian is so adorable".
"She's just like you Cam".  He chuckled "I'm proud of you and the woman and mother you have become and if I knew that that day would have been my last day seeing you I would never left babe".
She looked away and swallowed hard "It's not your fault Cam".
He nodded as he scooted closer "I came here to tell you to love again. Zy is a good dude and that's why he was sent to you, you gotta let me go Dru and live you life the way I always wanted you to... at peace baby, but please be careful and watch your back. Some people are out to hurt you really bad" He told her.
She looked at him with sad eyes as tears fell "I don't wanna let you go Cam" she whispered.
"Love me always in your heart, but now your heart belongs to someone else and it's okay to give it to him. He loves you Dru and it's okay baby fall in love again. And kiss Millian for and let her know her daddy is always looking down on y'all" He said again.
She took a deep breath and leaned forward as she hugged him so tight. She bursted out crying when she felt him hold her back, wishing he would never let go. "I love you always Dru'ona" he said causing her to cry harder.

Suddenly Dru jumped up out her dream and took a few deep breaths. She looked around the empty dark room and realized that what she just dreamt wasn't just a dream, but a message. Everything that Cam had said to her was what she needed to hear plus he granted her wish and that was to see him one last time. Now that somethings were clearer to her she knew what she had do.
