Forever And Always (HCBTO Sequel)

23

A few days have passed and furious, Jayceone slammed the front door of the house and dropped his keys on the small table where the other keys sat.

"Aye nigga, the fuck wrong with u slamming doors like that?" Damian asked, wiping the whip cream off his neck.

"Them niggas not doing they job man" he mumbled, walking towards the stairs. Damian grabbed his arm, pulling him back.

"What's going on?" Sydney asked, her shirt on the wrong way "Jay, what's wrong?"

"Them cops. Evey time I'm down at the hospital to see Lona, they asking me questions they know the answer too. Waisting time on unnecessary shi- stuff when they need to be looking for Robert"

"They just doing they job Jay" his mom said calmly, rubbing his arm "U need me to go down there with u?"

"Oh no, you'll end up in jail next then I'll really fu- mess them up" he said "But thanks ma" he kissed her cheek.

"Anything on Lona?" Damian asked.

Jayceone smiled a little "Things are getting better. She still ain't open her eyes, but when I held her hand, she squeezed it"

"Oh that's good, I want to go see her" his mom said "Next time u go, let me know" she walked back into the kitchen while Damian and Jayceone walked to the couch.

"Dad, I'm starting to think some scary things" Jayceone mumbled, shaking his head and rubbing his fingers through his dreads.

"About killing Robert huh?"

"Yea, I swear if something happens to Lona, he's dead. Its either them cops find him and put him in jail, or I kill him and they put me in jail"

The two sat in silence, until Damian chose to say something.

"I know u feelin this girl Jay, its obvious as fuck. But before u go out and kill some nigga that shot her, make sure she worth it. Cause ain't nothin worse than doing it, then finding out she don't feel how u feel"

"I understand"

Sitting at an Italian pizza place, Xavier stood at the front and ordered while Imani sat at a table towards the back. She was busy playing candy crush when Xavier's phone went off.

Again.

Again.

And again.

"X, your phone" Imani said, getting his attention.

"Get it for me" he said back. She reached over and grabbed his phone, looking at the 3 recent messages.

I'm thinking about u baby. I miss the feeling of your lips being on mine.

I need u. Come by again, please daddy. It'll be worth it.

Then a picture message from Ariana. Hesitantly, she opened the message to find a naked picture of her. Getting grossed out, she tossed his phone back to his side as he set the pizza in the middle of the table with the large pitcher of Sprite.

He smiled at her then frowned when he saw her push her pizza away. Looking down, the picture message was still on the screen as he picked it up.

"The hell?" He mumbled, looking at the other two messages. "Baby i-"

"Xavier, don't" Imani said "Can we go? I lost my appetite"
