Chris
I walked off the stage panting a bit and my assistant handed me my water and a towel.
"Thank you ma." I said taking them and started sipping my water. You'd think that I'd be used to dance my entire life out on stage by now.
"BABY!! You did so good!" I heard and I turned seeing Kiana running to me and I smiled lightly.
"Thank you Ki." I said and she stopped in her tracks staring at me and she put on her serious face. "What..."
"Why are you never fucking excited to see me Chris!? Why do you always have an attitude!?" She screamed and literally almost everyone backstage turned and stared at us.
Bro...what?
I stared for a little bit more then nodded a bit walking off because I was in no mood to embarrass her tonight. I rather just be the bigger person and walk away before I do or say something I regret.
I walked towards my dressing room and I heard the clicking of her heels behind me which simply just got more annoying by the second.
I opened the door and walked in and she immediately hit my chest while I ignored her. Again I'm gonna be the bigger person because if I hit her she's probably gonna end up dead.
"I fucking hate you, you don't appreciate me for shit." She said and I stopped and turned to her.
"Leave then." I said showing no emotion at all and she stared for a bit then made her cry face and I groaned loudly turning to finish getting my stuff organized.
She let out a loud ass cry that was followed by her hiccups and I rolled my eyes.
"Stop before you give yourself an attack Kiana." I said not looking at her but she kept sobbing and like I was trying to warn her from before, she started hyperventilating.
I rolled my eyes a bit letting her struggling for a bit then I reached in my bag for a pump I carried around for her just in case and sat beside her turning her to me and giving her two pumps of it.
She ended up calming down after a bit and sat staring at her hands as I stared at her.
"Ki look at me." I said softly and she slowly looked up at me with her teary eyes and I sighed a bit. Regardless of how much of a bitch she could be at times, unnecessarily, she was still my babygirl and I hated seeing her crying. "I didn't mean it aii? But you're frustrating me Kiana...I'm not gonna always be shitting rainbows and you know that...just take it easy aii?"
"O-okay...I'm sorry...I didn't mean it when I said I hated you...I love you." she said with a pout and I kissed her forehead.
"I love you too. Now let me get dressed so we can leave okay?" I said and she nodded hugging me and I kissed the side of her head getting up.
Look, man...she was there when I needed someone...she been there most of the time and even though we're both fucked up I...I don't know I guess we just have a complicated relationship.
Camari
I stared in shock as Rick smiled at me from across the courtroom. Everyone started exited and he hurriedly made his way to me.
"Congratulations babygirl!" He said grabbing me and hugging me.
It was all so surreal to me. I spent the last two weeks with Rick, going over my paperwork for the appeal and today was the courtdate and they said yes.
I was actually free...
"Why aren't you excited?" He asked and I looked up at him.
"I-I am I just...can't believe it was that easy...wow." I replied staring at the ground and he lifting my face.
"Well believe it, where are you gonna go?"
Shit...I hadn't thought about that. Where would I go?
"I don't know...Oh my God I'm gonna end up homeless, then in a shelter, then back in the asylum and-"
"Hey, hey no. Now what kind of guy would I be if I let my favorite girl stay on the street? Listen you can stay with until you get on your feet, I'll help you look for a job, I'll help you get settled and stuff and then I'll help you find a place okay?" He said smiling and I tilted my head a bit trying to figure him out.
The cruel sadistic guy was suddenly...gone? I don't understand why or how. I don't trust it either but for the moment I guess I would just have to watch my back because I really needed the help.
"Okay." I said and he smiled widely.
"Great come on, your stuff is in my trunk...it wasn't much stuff because I threw out all the clothes from the asylum but your casual clothes is there...don't worry we'll go shopping." He said taking my hand and I smiled lightly as he led me to his car.
For the years I've known Rick I never knew he owned such and pretty car. He'd usually tell me about his cars but I wouldn't pay attention because most of the time while he told me I was trying to avoid him holding me down to rape me.
"Camari!" He yelled and I flinched quickly looking at him.
"Yes."
"Where were you just now? You spaced out." He said putting his hand on my thigh and I quickly moved it.
"I'm sorry I was just thinking."
He surprisingly didn't try to put his hand there again and this was just all so weird to me. Maybe I imagined him hurting me? Maybe that's why I was in a psych ward...Maybe I am crazy.
After a bit, we pulled up to a big building and I stared with wide eyes.
"This is your house?" I said looking around and he laughed.
"Girl this is an apartment complex." He said getting my stuff and I nodded like I knew what that was. "Come on." He said as he walked off and I trailed behind him taking in my surroundings.
I had been out a few times but I never saw any 'apartment complexes' it all was so weird.
We ended up taking what he said was called an 'elevator' to the floor he lived on and we went to a white door and he opened it with his key walking in as I followed.
I looked around and smiled because it was a super clean and neat space.
"Welcome to my home." He smiled at me and I smiled back.
"Thank you." I said still standing in my place.
"Well...let me show you to your room then I'm gonna pick up some dinner and stuff for you." he said leading me to a room that was baby blue and had a relatively large bed, way bigger than the one I had before, it had a tv, another door that led to a bathroom and a closet.
"Wow.." I whispered and he chuckled handing me the remote.
"Make yourself at home princess." He said before walking out.
