Kings College Hospital, Camberwell London

Jeremiah had been rushed to the hospital and immediately into surgery. The doctors were able to save his life and he was now in a hospital bed slightly unconscious. He was surrounded by his sister Jayda, LK and ST. JB was not completely fine, the doctors had said that there may be some complications along the way. Everybody in the room wore the same solemn look upon their face, all in their own deep thoughts.

LK's POV
My brother man. I can't even stay in this room watching him like this. I wasn't there to protect him. JB doesn't even like trouble, all he does is mind his business and make money. Still guys want to be onto him because of jealousy. I swear on everything when I catch the pussyboy that did this to bro, he's done. I don't even wanna get back on this retaliation ting because I promised Marni I would stop.

Armani. I've missed this girl so much, I hadn't even told her bout JB I know they just got back and I didn't wanna worry her too tough. I needed to speak to her though, she was my peace and rn I needed that. "Bell man please", I texted her so that when she woke up she would call me straight away. Not even 2 minutes went past and this girl was belling my phone. " Are you okay, that text sounded a bit off, where are you". This girl man, she was like my mum, always worrying about something. " I'm good but I'm at the hospital, JB got poked yesterday" After that statement, I was met with a couple moments of silence then she finally spoke "what hospital". "Kings" I told her as she responded with "I'm on my way".

This is what I liked about Armani. Most girls would run from situations like this but she was down no matter the circumstances. I didn't want this for her though, that's why I was focused on changing my ways. I don't want her to worry about me, don't want her to get scared every time I go out because I might not get back safe. I was trying to get out of this but every time we try, something always happens that draws right back in. Let me not even cap, I was tired of the cycle. So tired.

Canning Town, East London

After the call, Armani was rushing about trying to get ready to go meet LK at the hospital. She knew he needed her support more than ever right now. She couldn't help but think what if the next time it was LK, she wouldn't be able to cope. She couldn't complain because she knew what she was getting into and no matter what happens she was going to be down. As she was getting ready, she was contemplating on telling Amirah. She wasn't sure how Amirah would take it but she needed her to drop her to the hospital so she decided on waking her up from her sleep.

Amirah's POV
The jetlag was so crazy. I had been sleeping for hours, I had only woken up because I could hear Marni rushing about. I wonder what has gone into her this morning. Just as I was sitting up to check my phone, this girl practically burst into my room. " You need to get ready Mirah" I wanted to cuss her but she had a stressed look on her face and she didn't seem happy. " Why what's wrong",I asked her because I was concerned. Marni wasn't a serious person so the look on her face was a bit worrying to me. She took a pause and then looked at me and said "JB got stabbed yesterday."

My heart stopped. What did she mean? He messaged me just yesterday. And I aired him. Whilst I was busy being annoyed at him, he was out fighting for his life. I felt a knot in my stomach but I needed to ask Marni. "Is he dead?", I asked her and she shrugged her shoulders and just said "we need to go" That wasn't the answer I wanted. I wanted her to tell me he was okay and it was only minor but I didn't get that. My stomach turned as I rushed to get ready. As we drove into the hospital car park, I felt the anxious feeling come over me. I was scared. I was confusing myself, I thought I had a little crush but this made me realise that maybe I really do like him. He couldn't die. Not right now.

Jeremiah's POV
After what seemed like forever I was aware of my surroundings, my eyes were still closed. I could hear several voices in my room, my sister Jayda,LK and I think Armani. If Armani was here I wondered if Amirah was too. We were finally getting somewhere and I was really feeling her. She had aired yesterday though but I guess she was just busy, well I hoped it was that. At first I thought I wasn't going to like her but after speaking to her so frequently with those long facetime calls, she was different. She was perfect for me, everything I wanted in a girl. Her attitude still stank but it was something we could overlook.

I was finding the power to open my eyes, as they fluttered open I scanned the room, there she was. Barefaced and still beautiful. "Bro you're awake", LK and his loud self shouted. She looked at me with a smile and she let out a sigh of relief. Oh so she cares about me. Everyone gathered round me asking if I'm okay, honestly I just wanted to speak to Amirah alone. "Can I speak to Amirah alone please", I croaked out. She looked at me with a surprised facial expression. Followed by everyone making their childish noises as they left the room. Now it was just me and her.

Being out for hours made me realise life is too short and I wanted to try with her.
"I'm happy you're okay", she said to me as she walked closer to the bed. "Didn't know you cared about me like that", I raised my eyebrow at her. She rolled her eyes and took a pause.

"I'm just gonna say this because you nearly died, I'm feeling you and I don't know if you feel the same way because I know you have Shaznay". I looked at her shocked, I didn't expect her to be so straightforward but where did she get the Shaznay idea from? " I don't fuck with Shaznay anymore, I locked it off yesterday" She gave me a weird expression almost as if she didn't believe me. "I called you yesterday, she answered all in her robe telling me you're busy" This Shaznay bitch was crazy.

" I don't fuck with her, I went to lock it off and she musta picked it up when I went toilet, hands on my heart". She fiddled with her fingers, she was blushing. She was beautiful though. "I'm feeling you too, I've been feeling you" I told her opening my arms. "I'm not hugging you, I don't wanna hurt you", she said. I sat up to pull her, "so where from here" she said as she looked at me. "You're my girl now", I said as I smiled.
