His Past // Zion Kuwonu

Ch. 15

TJ

I woke up in my bed, looking over to see Zion fast asleep still, snores erupting from his lips. I smiled and kissed his cheek. I got up from bed and made my way into the bathroom, grabbing ibuprofen for Zion, he's gonna need it. I went downstairs and brought a glass of water up to my room for him. I opened the door to see Zion sitting on the edge of his bed, resting his head in his hands.

"Good morning, baby" I whispered.

Zion let out a groan "Why are you yelling?" He spoke, looking up at me.

I laughed. "I'm whispering. You're just hungover and have a headache" I said, passing him the glass of water.

"Thank you baby, I love you" He said, downing the ibuprofen and water. I gasped at what he said.

"What?" He spoke, looking up at me.

"You said you love me" I said, smiling.

"Shit. I'm sorry. I should have waited. I don't know what I was thi-" I cut him off "I love you too" I spoke, kissing him.

We pulled away from the kiss and a sleepy grin was plastered across his face. I watched was he got back under the covers, closing his eyes.

I grabbed my wallet, keys and phone from the nightstand. I went down the stairs. I slipped on my shoes and made my way out the door. I got into my car, starting the engine. 21 savage played from my phone and it made me smile, thinking about how much Zion likes his music.

I pulled through the McDonald's drive thru, ordering something for each of the boys and I. I payed and drove back home. I didn't realize how early it is, it's only 9am and it's a Saturday. I entered the house, and it was silent. The guys were still asleep. I slipped off my shoes and placed the food on the counter. I shuffled into the living room, turning the tv on. I scrolled through Instagram.

I paused as I came across a picture of two people kissing. I felt my heart drop as I recognized the tall light skin with blonde dreads. I noticed that this was posted on a celeb news page.

I locked my phone, feeling tears coming on. I threw my phone to the other side of the couch, sighing loudly.

I listened as a door opened upstairs, and footsteps came down the stairs. I sighed of relief when I noticed it was Brandon walking down the stairs. He didn't have a shirt on, and his hair was a mess.

"Brandon, did Zion kiss someone last night" I spoke as he paused in his tracks.

"I uh-well no, not really..." he said, running a hand through his curly black hair.

"Don't lie to me!" I said, standing up from the couch.

"Let me explain" he said, holding my arms and sitting me down next to him on the couch.

"Go ahead" I rolled my eyes.

"Well first of all, he was drunk. And second" he paused. "She kissed him. He was trying to push her off but she reached up and kissed him. He pushed her off immedi-" I cut him off "are you sure?" I asked, crossing my arms.

"Yes I'm sure. The first thing he said after she did it was that he was sorry. He said that to us, not her." he chuckled.

"Promise?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow.

"I promise, Tj. I wouldn't lie to you" He said, smiling at me. I nodded.

"There's food on the counter from McDonalds for you and the guys, by the way" I said, gesturing towards the kitchen with a sigh.

Brandon nodded and got up to get his food. I grew anxious as I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Zion came around the corner, wearing just joggers.

"Good morning, babygirl" Zion said with a sleepy smile.

"Morning" I said, keeping my eyes on the tv. I felt the couch dip down next to me.

"What's wrong, babe?" Zion asked with sleepiness and concern laced in his voice.

"Who the fuck did you kiss last night?" I asked, turning my attention to Zion.

His eyebrows furrowed "what?" He asked.

I pulled up the picture and showed him.

"Ohhh. She kept touching me sand I tried to avoid her but she came up and kissed me. I pushed her off immediately" he spoke, pulling me onto his lap.

I felt tears fall. I'm not sure why I was crying. Zion kissed my tears away, pulling my body into his.

"I felt nothing towards her. She kissed me and I pushed her off immediately. You're the only one I want" he whispered into my ear. I felt goosebumps form on my skin at those last six words coming from his lips

I pulled away from the hug and wiped my tears. "Thank you for clarifying" I said.

"Anything for my babygirl" He said. My heart fluttered as he called me babygirl.

A few days later

I've been distant with Zion. I can't help it. All I can think about is if he knew the girl that kissed him.

"Tj can't you just tell me why you're so pissed at me?" Zion spoke, rubbing his face with his hands.

Zion and I are currently arguing in his bedroom.

"I don't know why!" I raised my voice slightly.

"You know what? I don't need this. I explained what happened and I've apologized, I don't know what you want!" He raised his voice. I watched as he grabbed his keys and stormed out of his room.

I flinched as the front door opened and was slammed shut. Tears soon fell and I felt guiltier than ever about the way I've been acting. I'm just disappointed.

I ran down the stairs and saw the guys watching a movie in the living room. I said nothing as I grabbed my keys from the TV stand and put on my shoes quickly.

The guys began asking questions but I didn't answer any of them. I ran out to my black Chevy truck and started it as quickly as I could. My tears kept coming as I drove, looking for Zions car.

I drove around, desperate to see his car in my view. My tears didn't stop, and I was full on bawling as I hit the gas. I didn't care for the speed limit as I continued keeping my foot on the gas.

I looked for 45 minutes, becoming desperate to see his car. My heart dropped when I saw lights everywhere. I hit the brakes, noticing a black Range Rover severely damaged. I hit the brakes harder than before and parked the car.

Sprinting out of my car with barely any time to undo my seat belt was never something I expected to do. But it happened. It was the slowest moment of my life. The lights, the people, everything. It hurt to hear those two words from paramedics, "he's gone." That was all I heard before I began screaming. I don't remember anything except being escorted to the hospital for paperwork. That was she worst day of my life. I'll never forget it.

The end.
