Forbidden Gang Love // Jelena

Chapter 36

Selena's P.O.V.

    I open my eyes and see my old bedroom. I look around confused. How did I end up here? I quickly grab my phone to check the date. Only a day has passed!

    It was only a dream. At the police station, I never agreed to run away with Justin. My dad went to pick me up so I didn't even have a chance to talk to Justin. Why on earth would I have such a dream?

    It felt so damn real. Most of the time when I have a dream I don't remember half of it. But I remember this one so clearly. . . its kinda scary. I was pregnant! What girl my age has dreams like that?!

    Randomly i begin to think about yesterday. I bring my fingers up to my lips. I remember making out with him in the apartment stairs. Oh, how I missed his lips.

THEY SAW US!

Dammit. Alfredo and Demi caught us. Demi ran out crying. . . I knew she liked him. I'm such a bad bestfriend.

"Selena!" ChaCha shouts as she burst into my room.

    I squint my eyes with uncertainty. What the hell? Am I still dreaming? I doubt it. That dream was too good to be true. Plus, I could never leave my, that's includes my gang.

"Get your ass up now!" she yells and throws a waffle at my head. "We got to get to the warehouse ASAP. Its a fucking emergency! They got Johnny!"

"They did what?! Wait- who's they?!" I quickly jump out of my bed.

"I don't have time to explain right now. I was sent to get you so hurry up and get dressed. We gots to go!" she shouts as she dashes out the door.

    By the time I got out of my house, ChaCha was honking her car nonstop. I jump inside the passengers seat and she instantly speeds off, causing me to plunge backwards. This girl needs a cup of calm the fuck down. She's taping her fingers against the steeling wheel so anxiously, its making me nervous.

"We got some time to spare up in this bitch, so how about you tell me what's going on? How the fuck do you even know about Johnny!?" I yell at her.

"Yeah, about Johnny, how come you never fucking told us about him?! Brandon was our blood too! There should never be any secrets between a gang because no matter what, everything always comes out! Always, Selena!"

    I turn away from her and look outside the window. How could Esme commit suicide? How could she just leave Johnny like this? My stomach feels weird, I have a bad feeling about all of this. Something just doesn't feel right. . . I knew Esme would never leave Johnny, she lived for him. . . so why did she? Now, someone has him.

"You said they have Johnny. Who's they?" I ask her.

"I'm not telling you shit until you answer my damn question."

I sigh. "I'm pretty sure you already know. Why the hell are you trying to waste my damn time?!"

She shakes her head while chuckling. "We were over here crying, trying to avenge his death and he turned out to be a damn traitor!"

"You better not be talking about Brandon," I scold her.

"Who else would I fucking be talking about?! He went behind our backs and knocked up some girl from another gang, ONE OF OUR FUCKING ENEMIES!"

"SEE! THAT RIGHT THERE IS EXACTLY WHY HE DIDN'T TELL ANYONE BUT ME! PLUS, YOU ACT LIKE WE AREN'T FUCKING WORKING WITH THAT SO CALLED ENEMY RIGHT NOW!" I yell back at her.

    She parks her car and gets off, slamming the door. I watch her as she storms into the warehouse. I sit in the car for a while as I try to calm down. My blood feels like its boiling and I don't want to go off on anyone. I close my eyes and sigh deeply.

    Its not like he intended on falling in love with her. You can't help who you fall in love with. Everyone knows its human nature! He devoted his entire life to this gang and when he falls in love they see it as betrayal.

    If they were to find out about Justin and I, would they too consider me a traitor? I don't even know what Justin and I are. I'm still Jose's girlfriend, I guess. But I made out with Justin. So I'm a cheater? I only got with Jose to try and forget Justin but that clearly isn't going to work. Its like I'm stuck and I don't know what to do anymore.

"Selena, what the fuck are you doing?" Ashton yells into the window.

"I was just asking myself the same thing," I tell him.

He looks at me confused but slowly nods. "Alright? Hurry up and get your ass inside because your dad is preaching."

    I walk into the warehouse and see everyone surrounding my dad. He's standing on a table and yelling all sorts of things. I figure I came in the middle of his speech.

He goes on, "And that's why we are all imprinted with our gang symbol once we are jumped into the gang. We are in this forever! Brandon may have made a mistake but he died fighting with and for us. Whether he was a traitor will never be. He was blood, therefore, his son is our blood as well. And we fight to protect our blood! Brandon's mom, Josefina, went to get Johnny this morning but turns out he was already in the custody of a woman. That woman is Laura Sepeda, Esmeralda's mom, who just happens to be in our enemies gang."

"Spiritus Album?" someone asks.

"We're working with you smartass!"

"They're working with us to bring down the main enemy!"

"Peur," my dad says.

Everyone's faces look either confused or shocked.

"That doesn't make any sense!" I yell. "Esme was in Spiritus Album so why the fuck would her mom be in Peur?"

"BETRAYERS!" My dad shouts. "Like mother like daughter. Laura got knocked up by a man in Spiritus Album while secretly fooling around with him. When she gave birth to Esme, she gave her to him to raise on his own. You can say she's a heartless puta."

"What does she want with Johnny then?"

"I don't know, maybe to use him against us. Don't forget Esmeralda's dad also wants him back and he's in Spiritus Album. She might try and kill two birds with one stone," he says.

Justin walks up to the table. "So what are we gonna do?"

"Both of our gangs came together for one reason: to take down Peur. We have planned out our every move on attack, months worth. . . And that will all go into tonight," my dad stops and looks around at everyone. "Tonight, once and for all, we will take down Peur."
