Gangster Baby Girl

Chapter 14: Bullets holes

Tonight Lexi called, inviting me over for dinner. Her Nana was back in town and she so desperately wanted me to meet her.

So here I am, sitting in their living room across for an older lady that didn't look a day over 45. She had a great fashion sense. "Were you a model or a designer?" I asked.

"I was a model back in my day" she flipped her hair "And a hot one at that these bitches nowadays ain't shit" she amassed.

"I wish you were my Nana" I gushed. I've never seen a woman her age behave that way before. "Sorry about her" Lexi gasped "She refused to act her age"

I giggled a the look her Nana have her "And don't call me Nana, call me Lena" Lexi's grand mother said getting up. "And Tina, come help me in the kitchen I wanna see how good you can cook" she said walking towards the kitchen "Why?" Lexi asked.

"So Incase she can't cook I'll give her some pointers. If she can't cook she won't have a man with good stamina"

"Nana!!" Lexi shouted with her face turning the exact color of a turnip. "Oh hush" Lena waved her off and ushered me into the kitchen.

For dinner Lena and I cooked up a storm and Cameron came just in time to join us. During dinner we made small talk but it didn't take a genius to know that there was some kind of tension between Lena and Cameron.

I help do the dishes even thought Lena objected many times complaining that I'd mess up my nails. Over all dinner went fine even though right after eating Cameron left. Lena and I hit it off as friends and made arrangements to meet up at my cafe some time during next week.

I turned on the lights in the foyer and heard a set of paws pounding down that stairs. "Mommy's home" I called out and almost emmediatley Aries pounced on me. I sighed as I petted her and took off my heels on the way up to my room.

I took off my make up and changed into a large t-shirt and a pair of small booty shorts. I didn't put on a sports bra or anything, it felt annoying and uncomfortable while I slept.

I brushed my teeth and did my lady business before setting Aries in her basket with her cute little blanket and settling in to bed.

I found that I could drift off to sleep with my hair getting in the way, I got up and took a hair tie from my vanity and pulled my mess of curls into a cute bun.

Just ad I was about to drift off to sleep the door bell brought me back into consciousness. I kicked off the sheets and stomped downstairs with a string of curse words following after me.

I aggressively pulled the door open only to me met I a drowsy looking Cameron. He was clutching into his side in pain. I instantly knew what it was, all the anger I had before left my body. I opened the door wider for him to come in, he calapsed half way in and I caught his body with ease. He weighs a tonne but it wasn't something I wasn't used to.

I pulled him into the little infirmary down the hall from the door and threw his body down on the bed. He was now going in and out of consciousness. I was forced to cut his expensive suit off him and pull a bullet out of his abdomen and one out of his right shoulder. I then dressed it and left him to recover while I cleaned the trail of blood before it stained my wooden floor boards.

The next morning I woke up to someone moving around and grunting in pain. I instantly sat up but regretted it when I felt the unbearable pain in my neck. I'd fallen asleep on the couch in the infirmary and was in an awkward position.

"What am I doing here?" I heard Cameron's gruff morning voice.

"You turned up on my doorstep late last night with a bullet in your gut and arm" I explain. On queue he hissed as he tried to get up. "I wouldn't recommend you do that" I said calmly.

I got up off the couch and quickly made breakfast in the kitchen. I made freshly squeeze orange juice and pancakes with a side of bacon and eggs. I took it back to the infirmary and sat it on the table next to the bed.

Cameron looked at the food suspiciously and I scoffed. "If I wanted you dead I would have left you out there last night or poisoned you when I came over for dinner"

I took up the fork and cut into the syrup covered pancake. I held the food to his mouth and his stomach grumbled. A tint of blush appeared on his tan cheeks and he ate without question. When he'd finished eating I smiled at him greatfully.

"Are you full?" I asked.

"Honestly, no but it's okay" he answered through the pain. I smiled at him and quickly made another bach of pancakes for him. After much complaining he ate the second bach and was finally full. I gave him some pills for the pain and he went to sleep.

I called Talia, a woman that was in charge of my cafe while I wasn't there and told her I won't be in today. I sighed and placed my phone next to me on the couch.

I wasn't even sure if I'll be able to go to work for another few days.
