I paced back and forth with tears in my eyes trying to hold everything together for the sake of her and my baby girl.
Last night got rough real quick and I had to be there to make sure my supporters was okay. But I should've been spending that time with Liv making sure she was okay, she told me to stay and I left. Tour was definitely getting cut short while she recovers. "Trey." I looked up seeing her mother and Uncle making me shake my head and finally let the tears go. "I'm so sorry." "Don't be sorry baby, that was out of your control." She rubbed my back rocking us side to side. "She told me to stay with her but I left. Now I don't know what to do." I took a deep breath trying to erase the worse possible outcome in my head.
"Is she okay?!" I turned around looking at Ciara confused.
"Yeah, she just fine." London and Justin stepped up making her step back. "Look, I don't want no trouble I just want to see her." "We all do, Wait in line." London said looking her up and down. The last thing I needed was some shit popping off in the waiting room. I had to issue a statement today but I wasn't doing shit until after I knew my girls were straight. Luckily my fans understood especially the ones that were there. They were calling me and Olivia heroes but I felt like the complete opposite. They launched an investigation looking into the shooting. There was two casualties and six injured, that may seem low but it was life put in danger or taken away. God was watching me last night because I could've been a target right up on that stage.
"Backster Family!"
Everybody stood up walking towards the doctor. My heart was in my stomach right now knowing he could say anything.
"Olivia was under a great deal of stress and that shooting caused her to have a panic attack and pass out. She has high blood pressure which makes this a high risk pregnancy. So stress is definitely out of the option for her health and the baby's."
"Thank you doctor. When can we see her?" Her mother asked. "Right now if you'd like, just no loud talking while she recovers." London, her uncle, and mom followed the doctor through the double doors.
I pushed my back against the wall saying a silent prayer for the hundredth time this morning. High blood pressure wasn't no joke and I knew this was serious. The last thing I wanted was her overthinking anything or stressed. After or before pregnancy it's easy to fall into depression so I was gonna do everything to keep her lifted in spirit.
"Man we got here as soon as possible. She good?" I looked over seeing Eli and Nick dapping them up. "She had a panic attack and she got High blood pressure." "Damn, that's fucked up. She's gonna be okay, keep that faith." I nodded giving Eli a hug. "Just a heads up before you go outside the press here. We tried to get them to leave but I'm pretty sure it's some still waiting on you." I shook my head, could never catch a break. "Thanks man, I'm staying here with her tonight then we flying straight home. No interruptions or distractions then when I get back to Atlanta that's when I'll speak." They nodded.
"Ight man, keep yo head up."
••••
Everybody went to see Olivia now it was just me. Walking down these hospital halls I knew she didn't belong in no cold place like this. This where people go to die, that's how I've always seen hospitals.
"She's up, been asking about you since early this morning." I smiled taking a deep breath before swinging open the door.
"Hey baby." She weakly smiled. Seeing her hooked up to all that shit made me feel powerless. I was usually in control but this shit I couldn't take. "Hey." "So the doctor says you good, just gotta watch you a little more and try to keep you stress free." She nodded her head looking down. "They said I get to go home in the morning but I have to see our doctor the next day." She rubbed her belly making me reach over and do the same. "She's strong huh?" She chuckled nodding her head. "Yes She is, she's not going nowhere."
"I'm already knowing." I kissed her hand. "Did you see Ciara had the nerve to show." She rolled her eyes. "Aye, at the end of the day that was yo girl. Just cause she fucked up and ducked off with the wrong nigga don't mean none. You and her been friends since a little after me and I know you miss that girl." She shook her head slowly sitting up. "I guess you got a point, near death experiences and shit bring the softness out of you." I laughed at her dark humor. "Plus I know how it feels turning your back on the world for a man who doesn't mean shit. She wants to stick around so I guess I'll see."
It felt like music to my ears hearing the positivity in her voice. "I know that. Everybody asking about you, dming me and everything." She laughed weakly. "Yeah I'm sure they are, I had to turn my phone off and give my head a rest." I nodded understanding. "So what you were doing when I was passed out on the floor." I looked at her shaking my head feeling bad about how that happened.
"Boy pick yo lip up, I'm just playing." I laughed gently nudging her arm. "I was getting people out the exit door and hiding ones who were shot. I wasn't gone go out like no boujie nigga and leave them behind." She smiled touching my face. "And that's why I love you." I leaned in kissing her forehead. She was understanding but that didn't change I felt like shit. "What they feeding you?" I flipped back the tray seeing the lifeless food making me cringe. "I'm order some Olive Garden and we gone chill in this hospital bed and eat ight?" She laughed. "Okay."
I walked up and down the halls with roses in my hand plucking them one by one. Just when I thought I had an open window to confess my love to her Trey swoops in. "She loves me.... she loves me not." I laughed tossing the pedals all over the floor. I knew I needed time with my lady before anything else crazy happens.
I told my cousin Jamal not to over do it with the shooting but he gets trigger happy sometimes. But he put my lover and my child at risk and I couldn't have that. I walked up to her door putting my hand on it feeling my heart grow warm. We were together in that moment, that's how strong our love was.
"I'll be with you soon." I took her panties out of my pocket sniffing them. They always made me feel better and kept me going.
Whewww.. so yeah this was definitely nuts and shit. Olivia is okay thank God and the baby, lets just hope this Blood Pressure doesn't be the end of anything. Terrance is getting a little too close for comfort but then again the crazy don't know what distance is especially when love is involved...
