Drug Lords and Love MxM (Staten Krown)

"Are you family? We can only let family in at this time."

We had arrived at the emergency room. Ant was in the ER. He had been shot. We didn't know any details but we were all scared. Penny had come with us. The look on her face said it all.

"I'm his wife," she stated.

"What about you two?" the nurse assistant asked us.

I could have said I was his stepson. I could have something like that but the idea of admitting something like that wasn't on my agenda. I looked over at Penny.

Penny was the one who spoke for me, "No we aren't related."

"You can wait here please."

We waited. We were in there an hour before Shorty showed up. I was glad to see him and from the looks of it he wasn't upset with me anymore. He met me in the middle of the hallway and gave me a long hug. I hated the fact that we argued. I knew he always looked out for me. I realized as well Shorty wasn't alone. There was a guy standing right behind him.

"Sorry. I was on a date. I came over as soon as I heard," Shorty said.

The boy was kind of cute. I had to admit. Shorty was always attractive though and the guy honestly looked like Shorty's type. Shorty dated a lot more than I did. He was known in the gay world as being a player which made it kind of ridiculous that he was so protective of me meanwhile he was out here fucking around with anyone. The poor kid probably didn't know that Shorty was going to use him and ditch him maybe even by the end of the night.

"You think this is the best place to bring your date?" I asked Shorty, "For real?"

"Man I'll ditch him. You know I will. I just didn't want to waist no time dropping him off. I was trying to come straight here to see you!"

The guy was close enough to hear. He made a little funny face but didn't say anything. Penny wasn't so far behind when she walked up to us.

"We are here for you," Penny explained.

Shorty nodded, "You know that already though, right?"

I nodded. I wished I did know it already. Shorty was always hard on me. Penny was always there for me. I knew it was all love with these too. I could see that maybe I had fucked up getting involved with him anyway.

"I know you guys are there. I just feel like shit. Here I am crying with my mom acting like the reason I am so sad is because I feel bad for her. Meanwhile the truth is the reason why I feel bad is because I have loved the same guy she loved this whole time. How the fuck am I supposed to deal yo? Anyone know how?"

"You got to be strong. This shit ain't easy. Feel me. C'mon don't look like that," Shorty said lifting my head with his finger, "You know you're tougher than that."

"I don't feel tough right now. I feel like a lil' bitch. A dumb lil bitch at that," I told them both as I sat down on the bench, "I'm so fucking embarrassed. Geez. Shorty. I mean can you send that guy home. He keeps like. I don't know. He's making me feel weird."

The guy was staring as though trying to get the 411 on what was going on.

"Ay. Time to go bra," Shorty said.

"You'll call me?"

Shorty shrugged, "Maybe. Maybe not. You'll see if I do I guess, huh?"

The guy seemed sad all of a sudden. It was classic Shorty. Shorty gave him a look like 'now what?' but the guy just gave him a weak smile and walked away. Shorty was reckless like that with these guys. I knew a part of him wanted me to be reckless like that with these guys too but I couldn't. I cared a little more than I should have.
