Hood fever | Oscar Diaz

Chapter: 81

January 31st 2019

Leilani

The girls wanted to help me get ready, but I wanted this time with Ruby.

"Princesa let me get in the waterline." He yelled holding my face. "Ruby no!" I yelled back.
"What's going on in here?" My mom said walking in laughing. "Tia Rosi, Tell your daughter I can't make her glam for the ball if she doesn't cooperate." He said gritting his teeth at me. My mom put her hands up and shook her head, "I'm not in this." She said.

Ruby finished my make up.
It was natural, with dramatic lashes.
He made me look like I was glowing and of course he used the lip gloss Oscar picked out.
"Look, we gotta slick the left side down and pin it, behind the ear. Then fluff the curls, fluff for the girls." He narrated everything he did.
Making me laugh, "I missed you Rubes."

"I missed you too princesa." He said smiling. "Now put on your dress so I can get dressed." He said as he pushed me out of my moms bedroom and slammed the door. "He's crazy." I sighed to my mom.
"That's your cousin." She laughed.
"Your sisters kid!" I laughed back.
She followed me into my room and helped me into my dress. "Oh baby, I imagined you wearing something like this when you marry Oscar." She sighed. I rolled my eyes.

"Mom I'm with Stavo." I said.
She sighed dramatically.
"Why did you get back with him after he called my son a lowlife?" She glared at me.
"He apologized, plus Oscar got back with Raza." I shrugged. "Oscar is just going through a phase in life." My mom said waving her hand as she helped adjust my gown.

"Mom, he broke up with me and got back with the girl who used me losing our baby against me." I sighed. she shook her head.
"But he loves you!" She said.
I shook my head too, "you mean you love him."
"Well yeah!" She said nodding her head.
"Stavo is safe, He's-"
"He's fucking boring and the sex won't be good." She said snorting. "I'll talk to Oscar when you talk to my dad." I laughed.

"Your dad is married with a new kid." She said.
"And Oscar is with Raza and they're trying for a baby." I sighed.
She stopped and frowned at me.
"What the fuck?" She yelled.
I nodded, "Yeah."
"How are you feeling?" She asked rubbing my arm.
I smiled.
Smiled through the pain.
The miscarriage hurt still but not as bad as before.
But when Raza said that Oscar told her he wanted a baby, with her. I think I died inside.
But it helped me, each time he hurts me, the less and less I want to try to get him back.

One day I'll be able to look at Oscar and feel nothing.
That day isn't today though.
"I'm good, it burned but what are you going to do?" I asked shrugging.
"Get back together." Ruby and Gio said as they walked into my room.
"True." My mom said as she finished Fastening my dress.
"You look beautiful." Ruby and Gio said at the same time. "It's freaky when you two do that." I laughed.
"I don't know I think it's cute." My mom shrugged.

Leilani's dress.

My mom drove Ruby and I to the Diaz house, we all agreed to meet there, it wasn't my idea.
But his house is right in the middle of everyone's and Gustavo got a limo so it just made sense that way.
As soon as I stepped out the car, everyone whistled at me. I laughed. "Stop it." I said.

Jose was wearing a nice tux. He pulled me into a hug. "Damn Leilita, if bianca wasn't my girl." He frowned and whistled, "save me a dance."
Angel walked out in a tux too and hugged me.
Cesar walked out last. "Dayum Gina!" He yelled.
"Stop hyping me!" I yelled.
All the Santos members laughed.

Then Oscar walked out laughing with Raza, he stopped when he saw me.
Raza ran into his back. "Ow! Spooky." She said slapping his back but he didn't move, he just stared at me frozen.

I smiled at him. "Hey Oscar."
His eyes were wide. Benito smacked him.
"H-hey" He said smiling slowly.
Everyone else showed up and hugged me.
Bianca, Emaza, Monse, Jasmine, Noah, and Jamal.
We weren't even with dates but it was okay.
Ruby and Jamal had eachother.

We all were talking.
Then there was a honk.
Gustavo was standing in the sunroof of the limo.
"Show off." Cesar coughed. I smacked him.
Everyone started laughing and walked to the limo.

I felt a hand on my arm.
I turned and looked at Oscar. His hand slid down to my hand and he held it as he stared in my eyes.
"You look so beautiful." He said, sounding out of breath. "You still wear the cross." He pointed as it hung around my neck.

I nodded my head. "Yeah."
"Leilani", "Oscar."
Gustavo and Raza called us at the same time.
Oscar and I blinked before we both pulled away.
"Have fun." He called out.

Oscar walked backwards to the house still staring at me, and I did the same towards the limo.
Raza glared at me as she pulled Oscar and turned him around but his neck turned and he looked again.
Gustavo did the same but I turned around too.

I still stared when I got in the limo.
I waved goodbye to him.
So did he, it was as if that was us really letting go.

Tonight, I'd give myself to Gustavo, and he'd give himself to Raza.

We'd really be done.
