TOO LATE. (Urban Teen Fiction)

Chapter 4. SECRETS

I walk into my room from the outside as Jasmine follows behind,  I handed her a blanket and a pillow. She lay down and wraps up in the blanket as I stood there taking my shirt off, then wrapping up in my cover laying down on the floor. We talked getting to know each other until we dozed off.

*Stop it I yelled, don't put your fucking hands on my mom again.

What the hell you gone do boy,  take your ass in your room before I beat your ass.

Baby go in the room.

No ma this nigga got me fucked up I'm tired of him hurting you.

He gets up in my face and starts choking me as I swing hitting him in the face.

You lil BITCH, he yelled punching me in the side of the head.

I instantly black out falling to the floor, as my mother runs to help me but he grabs her by the hair pulling her up.

Please James your drunk let me help my baby please.

He's not a damn baby BITCH,  how many times I gotta tell you., as he slaps her knocking her to the floor.

He starts kicking her as she tries crawling over to my unconscious body. She falls to her face crying and screaming for help, but no one could hear her cries.

Yell all you want bitch,  I'm going to kill you then that spoiled ass boy of yours.

I managed to come to as I crept away into my mom's room reaching into her closet grabbing her .22 she had. I slide the clip in releasing the safety as I approached the kitchen.

Lay another hand on my mother I dare you.

Oh so you think you gone shoot me, boy put that gun down before I fuck you up., he stated getting up from over my mom walking toward me.

Take another step and its over. He laughs and darts in my direction as I squeezed the trigger shooting him. He falls to the floor instantly faced down, his body was motionless as he laid there, before I knew it I just started hitting him with the butt of the gun. My mom screams...........

I jump up out of my sleep in sweat breathing hard.

"You ok Dre"  Jasmine spoke. "Were you having a nightmare or something" .

"I'm ok".

"You sure, cause you were talking and squirming a lot".

"Yea it's nothing just a dream, go back to sleep".

I lay with my eyes wide open unable to go back to sleep, as I can see Jasmine moving in the dark. She scooted across the floor toward me asking me to hold her. I wrap my arms around her, as I laid there heart still beating fast.

"Dre what wrong, your heart is beating like crazy".

"I'm good".

"Who did you shoot in your dream".

"What do you mean"?

"Cause you carried on a full argument with someone in your sleep, and you dared them".

"It's nothing", I replied. "Just go back to sleep" .

I lay there thinking to myself, did she just witness my whole dream, and could possibly know my past.

So what do y'all think? Is Dre dreams exposing his dark secret?
