This is a flashback ..

'Niya ?' Avery asked me in more of a calm way which started to calm me down as well.

'It was Marc- It was Marcus. ' I cried.

'Is you hurt ?' He asked, sitting me down at the kitchen island. He went to freezer and grabbed some frozen peas. 'Put this on whatever hurts, I'm a be right back.' He rushed.

'What ? No Avery, don't leave me here by myself. ' I shook my head, crying and still scared as fuck.

'Ayy.' Avery rested his hands on both of my shoulders and looked me in the eyes. 'You gotta chill Niya a'ight. I know you scared, but chill out and I'm a be right back.' He said before kissing me on the cheek and leaving out.

I stood up and grabbed the peas, putting them down at the front of my tights.

I went and checked to see if Avery had locked the doors, which he did. I didn't know what he was going to go do but I just wanted him to be careful and safe. I don't want anything bad to happen to him because of me.

Slowly, I made my way upstairs and to Avery's room. I started to search through his closet for some basketball shorts and a t-shirt. Once I did that I went to his bathroom and ran me some bath water.

**
Hours had passed since Avery left and it was starting to get dark. I was so worried about him and what he was doing. I was laid out in his bed, watching tv and holding onto one of his pillows that my head rested on. I was going to call someone but I didn't and I also wanted to go to sleep but I couldn't do that either. All I could think about was what Avery was doing and if he was okay.

Soon I heard the downstairs door open and close, and footsteps coming up the stairs. Avery walked in instantly looking over at me. He must've thought I was sleep because he didn't say anything to me. He started to strip out of his hoodie and shirt before going into the restroom.

After he took, what I could only assume was the longest shower ever he came back into the room in nothing but some sweat pants and sat down on the bed, grabbing the remote.

'Avery it's so damn late.' I mumbled and he looked back at me, nodding.

'I know. ' He responded and I sat up, sitting next to him.

'Is you okay ?'

'I'm straight. ' He assured me. ' Is YOU okay Niya ? You feel like you need to go to the hospi-'

'Nah I'm good. I don't need that.' I shook my head and waved him off.

'How long you been dealin wit dude ?'

'I-' I hesitated, playing with my fingers. 'Some months.'

'Months ?!' I jumped a little at the anger in his voice and he sighed. 'You been lettin this happen for months and you ain't say shit ?'

'I ain't know how.' I started to cry. Avery wrapped his arm around my shoulder and pulled me in. 'He kept tellin me that he would kill me if I said sum'n and I was scared.'

'It's coo. You ain't gotta worry bout him no more.'

'What did you go do ?' I asked, really wanting to know.

'Don't worry about it. ' He said in a more lighter mood. 'You wanna go back home ? Or to Meech's ? I know you'd prolly feel better over there.'

'No.' I shook my head. 'I wanna stay here. '

'Oh a'ight. ' He nodded in a weird way. 'Jus know that ion keep women in my house ..' He paused.

'And when I do, they don't stay the night.' He joked and held up his hand for a high five which I gladly gave him.

'You feel me ?'

**
I woke up the next morning feeling terrible. As soon as I lifted my head from the pillows my stomach started to turn and I felt nauseous.
Accidentally kicking Avery who was at the bottom of the bed sleep, I rushed up and ran to the bathroom. I went to the toilet and lifted the seat up, throwing up afterwards.

Avery got up and ran over to me, holding up my hair while I let everything out.  'We need ta take you to the hospital Niya.'

'No.' I managed to get out . 'I can't-'

'Fuck that Niya sum'n could be wrong wit chu. I'm taking you home then I'm taking you to the hospital. '

Not saying anything else, when I was finished I sat there, trying to catch my breath before being handed a towel which I wiped my mouth with.

'C'mon cause I really don't want nun ta be wrong wit chu. ' Avery helped me stand up and we left out of his room, out the front door and to his car.

When we got to my house Meech and Angelo were already there because they had a key. They were seated in my living room playing some game and they didn't even notice us until Avery said something.

'Why are y'all here ?' Avery asked and they looked back at us.

'Niya had chips.' Dope responded, lifting up a bag of Grippos. 'Whas wrong wit her ?'  He asked, pointing to me.

'Go upstairs.' Avery mumbled to me and I did just that.

'Aint nun wrong, she jus sick.' Was all I heard before their voices started to fade when I closed my bedroom door.

**
Avery couldn't convince them not to come to the hospital with us so now they were all sitting in the waiting room while I was laid out on this hospital bed, waiting for this doctor to tell me what was going on with me.

'Okay sweetie.' Doctor Lacey came in with a clipboard and said. 'As you may already know, you have multiple bruises and scars mostly on your lower area, your neck, thighs, and waist being the main regions. You're going to have to sit out for a couple of days and I'd suggest you use ice. Although I will be giving you some pain medication that won't harm you or your fetus.'

My eyes widened and I look over at her confusingly. 'My what ?'

'Your fetus La'Niya, you're pregnant.'

'What ?'

No.
