It's Always Been You (sequal to It's Gotta Be You)

Chapter 23 Bad News

Prod

I haven't talked to Prince since that whole Ciara incident, but he deserves know because that is his brother. Brothers don't leave each other in the dark.

I got to his room and knocked on the door. He was watching Kevin Hart Let Me Explain. He looked at me and turned the tv down.

Prince:Not the person I was expecting to see today. Or for a while anyway

Me:Yea I know, but something bad happened and we thought you should know even after what you did, you still deserved to know

Prince:Look I have a very good explanation for that and I told Ciara and she understands and I promise once I get out of here, I will explain it to everyone. Even Neicey

Me:Prince

Prince:Yes?

Me:Roc got shot

Prince:How? What happened?

I explained what happened and he had tears running down his face. I told him that he just got out of surgery and was doing fine, but he wouldn't stop crying.

Me:You heard me say he was doing fine right?

Prince:I heard you it's just......He didn't deserve that. This whole situation isn't his fault

Me:Please explain because I am very confused

He explained his whole story to me and I just couldn't fucking believe it. It does explain why Roc would get shot though. He did get Ciara pregnant and that did piss off her dad, but I never thought her dad would take it to the extreme.

Prince:I swear when I got out of this hospital-

Chris:You won't get out if this hospital. Alive.

I looked behind me and saw Ciara's dad. I stood up and stood my ground.

Me:Why are you here?

Chris:You needs not to worry about why I am here because you have nothing to do with this. This is between me and him

Me:What do you want with him?

Chris:He's gotta die

Me:No he doesn't. She didn't mean for this to happen and neither did Roc and in all fairness you shouldn't have brought Prince into this in the first place

Chris:Look! This is none of your fucking business. Now move!

Me:No!

Chris:Then you'll go too

Ciara:Daddy! No!

We looked at the door and saw Ciara standing in the doorway.

Chris:Ciara

Ciara:Daddy just kill me please. Get it over with please because you can't kill my babies daddy's. Just get all this over with please

Ciara had tears dripping from her eyes that just wouldn't stop.

Chris:You want it to be over?

Ciara:Yes please

He pointed the gun toward Ciara and she closed her eyes.

Ciara:Chresanto I love you

She said quietly and before he could shoot the police came in and put him hand cuffs. Ciara opened her eyes and watch him go.

Officer:He won't be hurting anyone in your family anymore m'am

Ciara:Thank you

Officer:You're welcome

Me:You knew the police were coming didn't you?

Ciara:Oh please it was planned. Although I was scared that if they didn't hurry up then I was gonna get shot

She walked out and I'm guessing went back into Roc's room.

Prince:I'm glad that he's locked up but I can't believe that he did all this just because of a mistake

Me:Me neither but he's fucking crazy

Prince:Yea he is

We sat there for a minute and I looked at Prince who looked like he was really thinking about something.

Me:What are you thinking about?

Prince:Nothing

Me:Come on man. We've known each other for a long time. I know when you're thinking about something and right now you are

Prince:I'm telling you, I'm not thinking about anything

Me:Ok look, Imma go check on Roc. I'll be back

Prince:Ok

I walked out and over to Roc's room. I found Ciara holding Roc's hand. She was falling asleep as she watch him.

Me:Hey

She popped her head up and looked at me, then put her head back down as soon as she saw who it was and could relax.

Ciara:Hey

Me:Me and Jamie were gonna head home, but we'll be back tomorrow to see if he's up and doing ok

Ciara:That's fine. Have a good night and kiss Destiny for me will ya

Me:I sure will. Goodnight

Ciara:Goodnight

I walked back into the waiting room where Jamie was waiting for me. I nodded my head and told her to come on. She got up and walked out with me and we went home.

What do you think Prince was thinking about? I know I didn't make it seem important but it was. Trust me.
