Red Nation: Chapter 23

~Lexis P.O.V.~

"How are you going to tell Mom?" Ty asked when we pulled up to the house.

"That is a damn good question. Depends on what mood Mom is in. If she's in a good mood, then it'll be easier to tell her." I closed the door to my car and headed inside. Ty was smart and went down to the barn. I wish we could trade positions for the time being.

I walked in and closed the door behind me.

"Lexis?" I heard Nelle say.

"Yeah?" I heard her coming down the stairs. She was in my shirt and her hair was all done. I take it she's in a 'I just want to use Lexis for his dick' mood.

"Where were you last night and all day?" She asked as she wrapped her arms around my neck. I wrapped my arms around her waist and looked down at her.

"You want the blunt version or the more sugar coated version?" I asked with a small sigh.

"Blunt."

"Trey's locked up for a month for using a firearm in a domestic area under the violation of public endangerment." I hope those words confused her.

"Lexis! Why did he use a firearm to begin with!" She yelled right at my face with too much anger in her voice. I just held her tight 'cause I didn't want her grabbing a knife.

"He was jumped when he was with the boys and Ivanna. He fired in self defense. He's only in jail for a month and he'll be out-"

"Lexis! That's my son! I didn't even see him or anything! I hate this damn gang!" She was hitting my chest and that shit kinda hurt.

"Chanelle I get you're mad and I'm pissed off too but he'll be fine. He'll be bored as fuck but he'll be fine and he'll be out in just 4 weeks." I said picking her chin up.

If someone were to ask me what hell looked like I would say... Look into Nelle's eyes right now 'cause she had that look like she was ready to commit a mass murder... Starting with me.

"Let me go." She growled.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm gonna kill you because my kids were in danger and now one is locked up!" I'm beating Trey's ass when he gets out.

"Chanelle. Stop. I'm gonna let you go but calm your shit. Yelling at me won't bring Trey back here. He could have easily gotten 5 years but he got only a month." I said sternly at her. I let her go and jogged upstairs. "Don't you dare come at me with a knife Chanelle Salazarez!" I yelled from the top of the stairs.

I stripped down to my boxers and climbed into bed. I laid on my back with my head against the head board. I let out a deep breath and tried calming down. Trey is Trey. He'll be fine, it's just a month and then he'll be free.

~Nelle Bells P.O.V.~

I walked up the stairs and into our room. I quietly closed the door and climbed on the bed, laying next to him.

"I'm sorry Lexis." I whispered into his ear.

"It's alright Nelle." He said with his eyes still closed.

"You sure he's going to be okay?" I asked with worry in my voice. Trey will always be my baby, just like DeShawn, Ty, and Ivanna. I don't care how old they are, those are my babies and this just tears my heart.

"He will be fine. Trey doesn't take shit from anyone and I'm sure he'll start his own little gang in there, they'll get into shit, he'll be fine Nelle. If I lasted 4 years, he can last 4 weeks." He opened his eyes and they looked so calm.
