BO$$ED UP!

15

I jumped up sweating, I quickly got up and reached for my phone
"Come on pick up pick up"
"Please leave your message-" I hung up and quickly threw on some clothes
I called once more just in case but it went straight to voicemail
"Fuck!" I started to tear up
"Hey hey what's wrong baby?"
"Ace? Are you okay? What happened?"
"I'm fine wussup with you"
"I had a nightmare"
"It's okay, calm down, I'm fine just get some rest"
"No I can't! I'm scared"
"Just let me take a shower right quick, wash the blood off me"
"K"
I took my clothes off and laid back in bed
I checked the time, 3:00am
It was cold af but I didn't feel like getting up like at all
When ace had got out the shower he threw away his clothes then came to bed
"You good?"
"Yeah" I cuddled into him I tried my best to fall asleep but nope I just can't
Soon enough I knew he was sleeping, I looked up at him, he looked so handsome, I could tell he's really tired because he had slight bags under his eyes, he needs to sleep ima let him sleep instead of waking him up tomorrow for breakfast, well, today

3:00pm

Ace is still sleeping but I dont mind, he barely sleeps at all
**Ding

***: Hey
Me: who is this?
***: You don't know me, but Ace does
Me: so what that got to do with new? You're wierd af talm bout some "hey" gtfoh
***: Ok to the point, this is one of lorius's friends, tell ace that if he doesn't stop looking for him, he's gonna blow your place up
Me: ??
***: What?
Me: do me a favor and block my number

If it's not one thing it's another, and I know lorius is texting for himself, he don't have no friends with his wierd ass

"Why you let me sleep in?"
"You looked tired"
"I was*, what you up to?"
"Just-" I'm not gonna tell him, at least not yet, he's got enough on his shoulders

Ace pov

I feel good that she let me sleep in, I usually get three hours of sleep a day, then I stress about my son, finding those two dumb asses, running a club, meetings, selling, counting money, keeping track of my life and now threats to my girl and daughter, not to mention, getting shot five times last night, I try and play it off but I'm not gonna be able to hide it from Aliyah because it's all in my torso, I got surgery but I have to wear bandages and it's noticable

Looking at her while she sat on the couch just gave me a whiff of emotion
Part of me wants to fuck the shit out of her
Anther wants to protect her, run away with her and Lani, get married and have kids together
She's so beautiful, but it's not appearance to me, she's smart, humble, independent, not a hoe, and mature, well most of the time

"What you looking at?" She always snapping on Me but her ass over there blushing
"Nun" she smiled, her dimples are just so fine on her
Without warning she got up and took off to the bathroom
I was not to far behind, she threw up
"Want to see a nurse?" I would never go to a real hospital but if anything I'll go with liyah
rather than the doctors that work with me
"No, I am ok"
"Sure?" I held her hair as she puked some more
"Yes" she flushed the toilet and went to brush her teeth
"Okay"
"Your food is in the microwave"
"I'm not hungry"
"Are you sure, because I made your favorite"
"Yeah, thanks though"
Honestly I'm in pain, my whole torso is just really painful but I'ma play it off
I can't let her find out I got shot, she'll freak out
I need a blunt, try and ease some of this pain

Aliyah pov

It was 8 and I just got done with dinner, ace has been acting wierd all day and I'm just not sure what he got going on, like he didn't even want to take a shower with me, like we usually do when we're alone

"Are you bleeding? There's blood on your shirt"
"ah shit, pass me another shirt out my bag"
"K"
I passed him another white tee then went downstairs to see who was knocking at my door
