Chapter: 72

January 15th 2019

Leilani.

"Hey cutie!" I turned to see Lexi at my locker.
"What's up?" I asked as I was taking my books out.
"You free today? Wanted to go by that dress shop on Grossmont to pick out a dress for the White ball." She said as she bit into her Apple.

"Yeah, wanna invite the girls and Bianca, you should meet them and I wanna get to know B more." I said smiling. I actually really liked lexi and I've been seeing more of her lately I enjoyed her company.
"Sounds good." She said smiling.

I picked up my phone and sent a group text.
"Can we head to the Santos house first? You know the one of woodland, Oscar wants me to pick up some package." She shrugged as we walked out of school. "Yeah, I don't mind." I said.

"So, you and spooky." She said nudging me.
"You doing good?" She asked.

I nodded, "Yeah, he's really good to me." I smiled.
"That's so cute, it's so rare that cholos are like that, I'm jelly." She laughed
"Don't be, you're so beautiful. Anyone would be lucky to be with you." I said.

She was quiet for a moment like she was deep in thought. "Why are you so sweet?" She blurted out.
"What?" I said looking at her confused.
"You're just so pretty and so nice, how do you do it? I always end up being conniving or manipulative, like I want to stop but I don't know how." She sighed.

"I always want what I can't have." She admitted.
"Want to talk about it?" I asked. She nodded.
"There's this guy, he's a santo." She said.
"Oooo a santo!" I said smiling.
She blushed.
"He fucked me into the gang." She blurted out.

I gasped. "Oh shit." She really just said it like that.
She nodded her head.
"I've liked him forever and he's barely noticing me but he has a girl, and at first I wanted him and to get rid of her but now I'm starting to feel like it's fucked up because his girl is sweet and I actually want to be her friend." She blurted out.

"Do I know the girl?" I asked.
"No." She said.
"That sounds so fucking fucked up." I laughed.
She laughed with me. "I know."
"You're making me want to change, these two days we've hung out have been a life changer." She laughed.

"I'm glad, I really like you and maybe it's best to just find your own guy?" I said.
I couldn't judge her, Oscar wasn't mine and I stole him away from two girls.
So I knew what she was feeling.
"Hey this is woodland." I said pointing at the sign.
"You know I've never been to the Santos house." I said. "It's not that nice, it's messed up after Oscar fucked up Raza." She said.

I stopped. "He what?"
She turned. "Oh shit."
"You don't know?" She asked.
I shook my head.
"The day you got sick at seaport he picked me up to fuck up her cousin, and he legit slammed Raza into a wall and kicked her back and through her through a glass door." She said.

My eyes were wide with shock.
Oscar could do that to a woman?
Lexi started panicking. "Oscars gonna kill me."
"No he won't, I won't tell him you told me." I said as i hugged her.
"Thank you, you're a good friend." She said smiling.
We kept walking. "That's it on the corner right there." She said pointing to a red house.

"Wow it's red, so subtle." I said laughing.
"I know right, Los Santos is so obnoxious." She said.
"Like Oscars loud ass impala." I laughed.
We both started laughing then we heard tires screeching. A black van was in front of us.

"Leilani get behind me!" Lexi yelled.
She thought they were gonna shoot but they didn't.
She was going to take a fucking bullet for me.
They grabbed us both, they wore all black with masks. "Get the fuck off!" Lexi yelled.
"Let her go!" She was screaming.
I was starting to panic, I couldn't control my breathing. I couldn't scream or yell.
They put their hands over our mouths.

They opened Lexi's backpack and pulled out.
Hair?
"She's Latrelle's shooter." One guy said.
Prophets.
This is what Oscar feared, they'd find her, kill her.
Lexi looked shocked like she didn't know the hair was there. They threw Lexi in the van.
She was kicking and screaming and calling my name trying to get to me.
They knocked her out and I watched them tie her up.

Now I was alone.

"What do we do with this one? There was only supposed to be one girl!" One prophet yelled.

"Take her. No witnesses." The driver said.
I felt myself beginning to shake, then my head it the door and I was completely out.
---
I was in and out of consciousness.
I had a bag over my head and something in my mouth, it was making me gag.
I could feel Lexi next to me.
My legs were tied to my hands and it hurt so bad.

I didn't know what they were going to do to me.
Oscar didn't know.
He didn't know where i was.
All i could think is I'm going to die.

I heard the van door open, light poured into the van.
I was pulled out and they were so rough with me.
I felt my body get tossed on the floor.
Suddenly my mask came off.

I turned and saw Lexi.
"Are you okay?" She screamed out to me.
"Shut up bitch." A prophet said and kicked her.

They tied her to a chair, "wait till Marc gets here." One said. Lexi was crying, she looked so scared.

"What to we have here?" One prophet said as he touched my face.
I started crying.
I didn't want a seizure I didn't want to pass out and not know what was happening to me.

"Damn, we hit the jackpot." One said. "You got a pretty little friend." They said to Lexi.
I was being lifted and tired to chair now.
It was uncomfortable but more comfortable than before.

"We're gonna have to break this fine little yellow bone in for pimp lane." A prophet said as he cut open my shirt.

Feeling his hands on me was the worst thing in the world. "What's this?" He said holding my necklaces.
"A Santos cross, and Oscar?" He said.

"Oh shit!" They laughed. "This the shawty Oscar claimed!"

"Don't fucking touch her!" Lexi yelled.
Another prophet punched her in the face over and over again until the chair fell back and she was out.

"Lexi!" I screamed out.

"Don't worry about her babygirl." Were gonna take real good care of you they said as they crowded around me.

"We got Latrelle's shooter and Spooky's girl all in one day." They laughed.

"When were done with you, spooky ain't gonna wanna live no more." They laughed.
