In His Hood.

Chapter Fifteen - Disagreements.

Zuri's P.O.V

"I knew it!" Samantha yelled out as tears filled her eyes with a small smile forming against her lips.

As complete shock took over my body I placed my hand over my mouth feeling the tears as they built up in my eyes.

"I'm pregnant Avery."

The tears had finally fallen as I looked down not knowing what to do.

As the tears began to build up more an' more I felt Avery as he brought me into his hold allowing me to cry onto his shoulder.

"Zuri, baby this is suppose to be a happy moment." Samantha tried soothing me.

"Ma, can you give us some privacy?" Avery asked.

"Sure." Everyone remained silent as she made her way on out leaving us both alone.

Watching as he quickly walked out to help her to her room I made it further into bed curling into a ball.

"Zuri?" He tried his best with getting my attention. "Talk to me baby, tell me how you feeling right now."

Slowly looking up at him I watched as he brought his hand towards my face, gently wiping away my tears.

"I don't know Avery."

It all finally hit me - I was now pregnant with Avery's baby.

Laying in bed as I placed the sheets over my head I continued allowing my tears to escape.

"I just wanna be left alone." I assured him. "Please."

I listened as he sighed out loud lifting the sheets from my head, placing a soft kiss against my cheek.

I planted my face into a pillow as silent tears left my eyes watching him as he walked away.

I could not accept the fact that I was pregnant.

I could not be.

Avery's P.O.V

Making my way out of my bedroom an' into Mama's room I decided on just spending a little time with her tonight since Zuri wanted to be alone.

"Mama, did you take your medicine?" I had to make sure she took them every day to avoid her from getting as sick as she did a few months ago.

"Yeah baby, but let's not talk about me - Why aren't you upstairs with Zuri?"

"She wanted to be alone." I explained to her.

"So you left her?" She questioned a bit confused. "Baby when a woman wants to be alone she really just wants you to hold onto her, comfort her, tell her she's going to be okay."

I scratched my head in confusion not understanding her concept.

I could never understand women.

"So what should I do?"

"You should leave my room an' go into yours, where your child's mother is."

I sighed lightly afraid of what would happen next.

"Goodnight mama." I placed a kiss against her forehead before leaving out of her bedroom.

"Goodnight baby."

As I made my way out of her room an' into my room where Zuri laid I slowly made my way inside wrapping my arms around her waist. Watching as she surprisingly turned to face me while snuggling up into my chest I smiled to myself.

"I'm sorry." She whispered in my ear. "I know this was all you've ever wanted so if your happy - I'm happy."

I placed a soft kiss against her lips.
