Red Nation: Chapter 12

~Trey P.O.V.~

"So what would happen if we were together?" I asked Briella as she laid her head against my chest. We were watching a movie and things had calmed down between us since a little while ago. Let me add, things were too hot but I didn't mind.

"I'm not sure what would happen but I'd be open for it." I felt her smile against my chest.

"Aight, Briella, be my girlfriend."

"Blunt much? You're too funny Trey."

"I ain't playin', be my girlfriend Briella." I think it would be cool to start up a deeper relationship with her.

"Are you legit right now?" She sat up and looked over at me. I grabbed her hands and pulled her till she was straddling me.

"Yes I am. Yes or no, if you say no, don't feel bad, we'll go right back to friends."

"Trey, I do have feelings for you but I heard you just broke up with Jazlyn. I don't feel like I'd be doing you right if we jumped into a relationship so quick."

"I just said, if you say no we'd go right back to friends. At least you was honest but I still wanna be able to do one thing with you."

"That is?" I pulled her back down for a kiss.

What? It's not my fault I like sugar, and her sugar is pretty damn good to me.

~A Few Days Later~

Dad gave me a signature IRG red bandana a few days ago. Whatever right? Not really. Wearing the bandana brings a certain feeling, that I can't explain. Almost like a sense of power and Lauren loves when I wear it or just carry it around.

"Why do you love the bandana so much?" I asked as we were walking down the heart of town. The streets were empty considering it's a weekday.

"Because it makes you look even more like a Thug and I think you look really sexy as one." I felt her squeeze my hand and look up at me with a smile.

"Aw, thank you Lolo." I reached down and kissed her forehead. I'm thankful to say, I have my perfect other half.

"So what have you decided about college?" She doesn't want me to leave but wants me to take the opportunity. I agree with her. I wish she could come with me.

"Yeah I've decided." I dropped her hand and wrapped my around her, pulling her close to me. "I'm not gonna go. I'll just go to a community college around here if I decide to go through with more school."

"What about your scholarship?"

"Fuck it. I don't need to go to some fancy school to throw a ball just to be happy. I'm happy right now."

"Awwww, Shawny." She said as she hugged me. I smiled and held her close.

Our moment was cut short the second a gun shot was fired. I instinctively pulled out my gun and cocked it in the direction I heard it.

"Shawny! What was that?!" Lolo yelled as she clung to me.

"As if I would know." I said as I looked around. Out emerged Honey with a pissed off facial expression. "Honey, what the fuck?" I said as I kept my gun held up. I saw she still had hers.

"Just a deal that turned sour. Y'all are good." She said as she put her gun down. I lowered mine but Lauren still continued to hold onto me tight.

"A deal? You're seriously in the game now?" I asked as I started to walk up towards her. She was walking up to Lolo and I, till we met up about midway.
