Today Diablo called in a meeting and I'm freaking out. Geo told me last night that Ricky is Dragon's brother so of course the meeting has to be about Dragon coming back. A part of me is excited to seeing him but the other part of me is nervous as hell.
"If he finds out you're fucked," Melissa yells at me while I cooked breakfast.
"She got enough of that last night. Ain't that right Ronnie?" Geo adds sarcastically shoving me as he passed to grab a beer.
I sigh, "look I made a mistake. A really really bad fucking mistake, okay? I didn't know he was related to Dragon if I had I wouldn't of never-" I pause, "No one has to find out about this. I'll talk to him and make sure he doesn't tell anybody."
"Bullshit, you ain't talking to that foo at all," Geo snaps. "Just keep your distance from him and pretend it never happened. Oh and next time know who the fuck you be fucking with."
He walks out the kitchen.
I look over at Melissa with agony. She only sighs.
"Now my brother thinks I'm some hoe and I probably did act like one last night but I was drunk, Melissa. I didn't actually mean too," my eyes begin to tear. I thought of him as Diablo, I say mentally.
"Look Veronica I know we're being hard on you from messing with him when you didn't know who he really was but- ugh, if Dragon were to find out you know the consequences. He doesn't want anyone fucking with his family and well that's exactly what you did. Not only that but if Diablo finds out-"
"Diablo can go to hell," I exclaim.
"He still cares about you."
My heart clenches.
"I've had enough of his stupid games," I mumble turning off the stove once the eggs were ready.
"Okay fine fuck him. Just know I'm ready to run away with you if Dragon does find out about what happened. I got your back forever," she smiles.
I smirk, "thank you."

Getting ready for the meeting was a real struggle. I tried whatever I could to cover up the hickeys but nothing worked. The makeup was too obvious and I don't own any turtlenecks. Fuck it, I gotta face the consequences.

"Alright then, I'm leaving," I tell Geo as I grabbed my keys.
"Okay take care and call me if anything," he calls out.
"Yeah sure."
In no time I made it to the trap.
As soon as I step inside all eyes were on me. It was the couple homies in the living room just chilling waiting for Dragon I bet. There's ten minutes 'till the meeting actually starts and Dragon is the type of person to be there at the exact time he has to be, no minute early or later. So he'll be here exactly at 7.
After I greet the homies with a simple hi I realized that Diablo isn't here either, only Gustavo. I would ask Gustavo if he knows where he's at but I don't want to sound like I care even though I do.
To kill time I decide to go upstairs and check on the supply since it's been here over a week that I last checked.
Just as I went to open the room door, it opened and out came Diablo.
My heart immediately starts racing as I see him staring at me just as surprised.
"Hey," he mumbles finally.
