   "Camila did you sleep with him?" Ant asked through gritted teeth I kept looking down

"answer him Camila let him know how you begged me to come" Ace said smiling at Ant

I looked at Ace like he has 7 heads
"Both of you get out" I said lowly

they both looked at me like I was stupid
"GET OUT!" I yelled Ant looked down at me shaking his head Ace started laughing like something was funny making me feel embarrassed

"Get out i'm not joking y'all act like children just get the hell out!" I yelled in Ace direction his laughing came to a stop

"I cant believe you would even sleep with the guy who got Mateo killed" Ant words came out like bullets hitting my heart

"wha- what?" I stuttered out looking up at Ant

"you heard me Camila that's why I told your dumb ass to stay away from that idiot he knows who you are" Ant said looking at Ace

my view got blurry by the tears in my eyes I shook my head

"Tell me he's lying Ace" I said slowly walking over to Ace he stared at Ant 

they both looked down at me

"It depends I know a lot of Mateos that did wrong by me" Ace said shrugging

My chest tightened I looked up at Ace grilling him

"MATEO RUIZ!" I screamed walking closer to Ace he looked at me with a straight face I smacked him he clenched his jaw looking at me slowly

Ant chuckled "now you want to switch up on this man like you weren't sleeping with him man Camila you don't even know the fuck face last name and you're sleeping with him in the same house Miguel lives in" Ant pointed to Miguel baby picture I looked at Ant crying

"you took him away from me you-" I sob out walking away from Ace

"he played with my money and that's one thing I don't play with" Ace said I ran up to him to punch him but Ant stopped me I sobbed out once I felt Ant arms around me

"So you knew me this whole time you know who his father was" I choked out pushing Ant off me

"Camila he-" Ace started to talk
"SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT UP!" I screamed Ace rolled his eyes

"mommy" Miguel little voice made me freeze I cleaned my face fast facing him "hey papa can you go back in your room pack a bag we're going to grandmas" I said giving him a lip tight smile he looked at Ant and Ant nodded Miguel turned around slowly walking out

"I should kill your ass right now" I said through gritted teeth

"I would love to see it" Ace said looking at me

I stared at him I don't even trust myself to stay alone with Miguel I need my mother I take out my phone walking away from them trying to catch my breath

"Camila you ju-" my mother started
"mommy can I come over" I said in a shaking voice
"of course my baby is everything okay" she asked

I shook my head as if she could see me
"i'll tell you when I get there" I sobbed out and ended the call getting my stuff and packing it up getting Miguel we both walked out into the living room

Ace left Ant was still standing in the living room "let me drive you" he offered I shook my head

"you could of told me before any of this shit happened you could of told me something" I said holding Miguel hand trying to be strong

I opened the door so Ant could leave out
"You're right Camila" I nodded
"I know I am" I said closing the the door behind us walking down the hall Miguel carried his book bag and I carried the night bags

Making my way into my mother house I didn't talk until Miguel got put down I was curled up on the couch in the dark when my mother walked in she sighed sitting next to me

"Talk to me Camila" she said in a whisper making me cry again

"he- h-he killed him ma" I said choking out my words she stayed silent

"who?" she asked me slowly

"Ace got Mateo killed" I sobbed out crying harder than before my mother gasped holding her chest

"Ant told me A-Ace knew that I was with Mateo"

"Camila" my mother said softly
"yes" I barely whispered

"I told you I didn't want to go through this again I told you I didn't want to see you in this much pain ever again Camila" she started crying I sat up hugging my mother

"I'm okay i'm fine" I lied she smacked my leg I hissed

"don't lie to me girl no you aren't" she breathe in and breathed out hugging me "stay as long as you need to" she told me rubbing my back

     3 Weeks Later

      I woke up to Miguel kisses I smiled hugging him "Hi my papa" he started laughing

"ew mommy your breath" he said holding his nose making me laugh getting up "did you eat?" I asked as I grabbed my towel he nodded

"what did you eat papa?" I asked playing with one of his curls as he sits on my bed "grandma made pancakes, eggs, and bacon" he said licking his lips rubbing his belly

I started laughing at his gestures he got off my bed and went out of my room as I walked to my bed I opened the bathroom door with a cramp I hissed trying to stretch the cramp out

putting a shower cap on getting in the shower I was washing up when felt the pain again I yelp lowly looking down I saw blood running down my leg I washed it off trying to ignore the pain It was around the time my period was supposed to come

I got out of the shower once the pain went away and I threw on a pad putting lotion on doing my morning routine untwisting my hair I felt the pain again I leaned over on the sink hissing

"Mom!!" I called out as I started crying this one hit worse that the first too she came into the bathroom and she saw me crying she grabbed her purse and grabbed Miguel rushing us to the hospital

we were in the car then everything went black
