America

-25

( ( Marco P.O.V. ) )

I'm asking America to marry me now. I want to settle down officially with her now. I know I was dead wrong for putting my hands on her, but she made me so mad. "Well..." I waited.. Then she laughed and shook her head

"Yes" I put the ring on her finger then stood up and hugged her "We have to talk first though"

"Okay, lets eat though" she smiled and sighed , I pulled her chair out and she sat down. She looks so beautiful even though she's pregnant she still the same person I fell in love with. I see something so different from what I seen in Tiffany.. I guess I should of thought about my actions before I did what I did.

I'm scared as hell for Shelby right now.. Who's gonna help me with the baby once she go to jail? "Can I try to go in? talk to her and get her to come out?" I asked the officer, he just looked at me then looked back at the house.. I wonder who snitched on Shelby.. it had to be Rockell, or Willie.. Either way I'm gonna have a talk with both of them. "Sir my kids is in there !" I yelled and he turned around

"Look-" he started to say but I cut him off.

"Look nothing! My child is in there! and I'm going to get her" I walked over the rope and ran towards the house

"Hold your fire!!" the police man yelled and I continued to run. When I got in the house I ran straight upstairs to the baby's room. Shelby was sitting on the floor crying hugging the baby. I sat next to Shelby and wiped her tears on one side of her face.

"All I wanted to do was pay you back for what you've done.. You didn't have to take that shot for me but you did and I really appreciate it" she took a deep breathe "I never wanted none of this to go this way. When they were bringing him up I felt like I couldn't keep it in no longer.. I always kept it real with you, I felt like I was betraying you since I wasn't speaking up about what I've done" she closed her eyes

"Everything is okay Shelby. I'm not mad about what you did." I smiled

"I feel like I lost you" she shook her head

"Look at me babe" I smirked and she looked me in the eyes "You didn't lose me.. Well not to this, you did when you had sex with him. What I want you to do right now is go out there and put your hands up... and when you get to that interrogation room tell them everything babe. Don't hold nothing back." I stood up and had my hand held out.She took it and stood up "I'm gonna be here when you get out" I kissed her softly.. I'm skeptical about holding down Shelby while she's in the pin because I don't know how long she gonna be in. This is really like some soap opera junk man. I never been in no situation like this so I don't know what to expect out of any of this. She handed the baby over to me and slowly walked down the stairs.

"Wait.." she stopped before she opened the front door "I'm scared Chino.. I could be living my last few moments right now" she started to panic and at this moment I had to figure something out quickly before it lead to something else.

"Baby , listen to me please" I held her hand " You are not , I repeat you are not going no where.. Which means you're not living your last few moments" she sighed and shook her head "come on it'll be okay" I squeezed her hand. We're gonna do this together so it will be easier on her. I walked out first pulling on her. She held onto me tightly. Police from all directions had their guns loaded and ready. We slowly fell to our knees, still holding on to her hand we put it up in the air.  Time to surrender, cause she caught.

We got back to the hotel room. I sat on the couch and he joined me. That dinner was lovely especially since I'm eating for two now. He looked me in the eye. I tried to avoid the eye contact, whenever he looked at me he made me feel some type of way. I struggled try to take off these heels "Here let me help you" he lifted up my leg.

"Did you forget I had on this dress? You're gonna make me rip it" he chuckled a little, and I smiled. He undid the heels

"Your feet are so swollen ma" I moved my leg from off of his

"Well that's apart of being pregnant Marco" I sighed and so did he

"Go change into something comfortable, we need to talk" I got up and slowly walked to the room considering the fact that my feet is on 10 , I put on some pj shorts and a shirt then made my way back to the couch. Soon as I sat down he placed my foot on his lap and began massaging my foot. It felt so amazing but at the same time I felt embarrassed. "I apologize from the bottom of my heart America"

"Marco stop. You're a dude, dudes are gonna do what they want to do. At the end of the day I can't do nothing but respect you.. You know what you want out of life, make your choices wisely baby... cause I won't stand for it" I was preparing myself for this conversation... this is what I've lowkey been wanting.

"I'm not just talking about the cheating America. I took it too far when I raised my hand at you" he shook his head, I could see his tears forming. Everything he's saying I believe he actually mean it cause its rare for Marco to cry. "At that moment shit got real, I didn't know how to handle it and I was so pissed"

"I never thought you'd hit me, things happen though" I ran my fingers thru my hair "think about it like this though how would you feel if some little boy felt like he could hit your daughter?" when I asked that his whole facial expression changed

"I honestly didn't think of it like that. I won't allow that though. I never meant to hurt you and you know that America." His tears finally fell and it brung me to tears cause he's really hurt. "I don't want to hurt you" he hugged me , I wrapped my arms around his neck

"I love you" I whispered in his ear and he sat back down on the couch.

"I love you more" he wiped his tears and then his phone started ringing.

We're sitting here having a heart to heart conversation and my phone started to ring. It was August. I know that's family and all but at the moment things are going well, I'm trying to make it up to America right now. I ignored the call "Your not gonna answer it?" America asked and I shook my head no

"I'm with you right now" she rolled her eyes

"Bae, you're always with me. Call him, he needs you right now"

"and I need you right now" I tried to kiss her but she pushed me away and laughed

"You can have me after you return his call" she raised an eyebrow.
