Chapter 27: Realizations

Cassie’s P.O.V.

I woke up to the sound of a heart monitor. Knowing where I was, I let out a sigh. No one was in the room except for the doctor so hopefully they all went home. “Casandra, you do understand what’s wrong with you right?” She raised an eyebrow at me. I’ve been here a couple of times in the last few months.

“Yes doctor,” I rolled my eyes. We’ve been over this a million times and I’m honestly tired of talking about it. Can we just drop it?

“So are you gonna handle it or?” She read over my charts. Yeah lady, whatever you say. I’m willing to say anything to get out of here as soon as possible.

“I will, it’s just been a stressful week,” I lied straight through my teeth. I’ll probably end up back here eventually so fuck  it.

“I don’t wanna see you back here Casandra. Your friends are outside waiting for you,” she informed me. Why are they still here? Haven’t they heard the term don’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped? I just want to be left alone. Why do they think I moved?

“Don’t let them come in. I need to get dressed!” I told her before going into the bathroom. I took off the hospital gown and looked at myself in the mirror. I turned to the side and place a hand on my stomach. Oh what a stressful week it has been. I quickly put on my sweats and hoodie before exiting the room. When I walked past the waiting room, I heard my name being called. I continued walking until I felt a grip on my elbow. Shad needs to really stop doing that. I tried to walk away but he dragged me outside and caged me into a wall.

“I need to go,” I stated. I didn’t want to be near him but I’ll admit that I did miss him. I’ve missed everything about him if I’m being honest.

“I’m not letting you leave me. I refuse to let you leave me again,” he choked up. It looked like he was holding back tears. I sighed as he rested his head against mine. I never wanted to hurt him this way. If anything, I thought this would help him.

“It’s not the same anymore Shad,” I locked eyes with him. I’m never gonna be the same again. I’ve change way too much that I’ll never go back to the old me.

“Was that nigga abusing you and raping you?” He asked me. I let out a few tears before nodding my head. “That’s all I needed to know,” he backed away from me and started walking. I grabbed his hand and pulled him back. He’s gonna do something stupid, I already know it.

“Don’t do anything stupid. He’s dangerous and he could really hurt you,” I pleaded to him. He doesn’t know just how dangerous my ex can be. Shad pulled me into a hug and kissed my forehead.

“You don’t know just how dangerous I can be,” he whispered before pulling away. I looked at him in confusion but he was already backing inside, grabbing the girls. He better be safe or I will never forgive myself.

 

 

Nicki’s P.O.V.

I stood outside with Cassie while everyone else was waiting in the car. “Why’d you lie?” I asked her. She avoided eye contact and let out a sigh. She’s been doing that a lot lately and I’m honestly sick of it. Just tell me the fucking truth!

“It’s for everyone’s own good. Please just go,” she begged before walking inside. I got back in the car with a sigh. She’s so broken that I’m not sure if she’ll ever be fine.

“Something’s not right with her,” Mere said as we all stared at her house. She said what we all have been thinking.

“Something isn’t right with her but I damn sure am gonna find out,” I stated before pulling off. I’ll be damned if I let my best friend fall into a deep depression.

~

I got back home and it was silent. “Aubrey!?” I yelled but received no reply. Where the hell is he? He should be home at this time.

“Hey Nicki,” Ace smiled at me with a sleeping My in her arms. Ace has been really sweet since she’s came. I can’t say the same about her brother. All he’s been doing is flirting with every girl he could find. He even tried to flirt with Blake.

“Hey,” I grabbed My and put her in her room. I should stop babying her but she is my baby so fuck it. I’ll do whatever I want and I don’t care about other people’s opinions.

“Where’s Aubrey?” I turned to her once My was comfortable.

“He’s by his dad’s,” she quickly said. I knew that had to be a lie. Drake never goes over there because he hates him.

“Why? Doesn’t he hate his dad?” I scrunched my face up. Something’s going on and I’ll figure it out.

“Believe me, he does. He just needed to take care of something,” she shrugged. I nodded before going downstairs to make dinner.

 

Drake’s P.O.V.

“You hit my sister!” I yelled at my father as I punched him. “Then you had the nerve to rape her!” I punch him again until he almost blacked out. “I’m gonna really enjoy this,” I smirked before raised my gun. He deserves to die and I’m willing to do it.

“Wait!” His wife, Joelle, ran out.

“Give me one reason to let him live,” I looked at her in disgust. She was just as bad as my so called father.

“I’m pregnant!” She shouted. That’s a damn lie, she can’t get pregnant. That bitch is way too old.

“You want this bastard to live after he raped your daughter and abused her!?” I yelled at her. What kind of mother is she?

“He said he was sorry,” she cried.

“Sorry my ass,” I mumbled before pulling the trigger. I ain’t kill him but he’ll be in pain for a while. I’ve already got a record and don’t need another.

“I’ll turn you into the police!” She grabbed the phone. Try me bitch and watch what happens.

“You won’t because I got a few things on you Ms. Joelle. Some things that can have you sentenced for life,” I dared her.

“Fuck you Aubrey!” She stomped her foot angrily.

~

I walked back into the house and went upstairs. I tried to hide the gun before Nicki woke up. “Is that a gun?” She looked at me in horror. She always figures out every damn thing that I do. I put it down and turned to her.

“Yeah,” I sighed. Here comes the million questions.

“You brought a gun into this house!?” She stood up and backed away from me. I could see fear cross her face.

“It’s always been here Nic. In case of an emergency,” I explained. I needed to be loaded because shit always pops off.

“Who did you kill?” She narrowed her eyes at me. She seemed almost afraid of the answer.

“I ain’t kill nobody, I just warned my dad,” I looked down. She’s gonna start yelling, I know it.

“Your dad!? I know you don’t like him but that doesn’t give you a right to warn him! What about Jhene? How will she feel!?” She shouted at me.

“He raped her!” I yelled out. She instantly grew quiet. “He’s been raping and abusing her for years,” I continued. She walked up to me and wrapped her arms around me.

“I’m sorry,” she mumbled into my chest. She always knew how to calm me down.

“It’s okay. You didn’t know,” I kissed the top of her head. She stood on her toes and kissed me. I kissed her back and brought her as close as she could be. “I wish you would turn eighteen already,” I groaned. She’s just so tempting.

“You and I both,” she laughed before kissing me again. I picked her up and threw her on the bed. Shit if I can’t fuck her then I might as well eat. I’ll never get tired of pleasing her.

“You gonna get yourself into some trouble,” I mumbled as I hovered over her. She had a teasing look in her eyes.

“Then punish me Papi,” she smirked as she felt me grow. I smacked her ass hard and she moaned.

“You gonna regret saying that,” I whispered before kissing her.

 

Blake’s P.O.V.

           

“I have a question and feel free to not answer it,” I told Mere as we were spread out across her bed.

“Shoot,” she said. I took a deep breath and tried to figure out how to say it. I might as well spit it out.

“How do you have sex with another girl?” I asked. It grew silent so I quickly sat up. “Too awkward?” I cringed. She laughed and shook her head.

“You’re just curious. It’s oral sex,” she explained. I grew confused at the word. What the hell does that mean?

“What’s oral?” I tilted my head.

“You mean you’ve never had oral sex?” She looked at me in shock. I shook my head no. “Now this is difficult to explain,” she sighed.

“It’s okay; you don’t have to explain it. I’m just so inexperienced that I don’t know anything,” I groaned.

“It’s cute that you’re pure. Not many people are these days. I’ll explain it but give me some time to figure out how to explain it. It’s hard to explain something like that without showing you. I’ll think of something,” she mumbled as the doorbell rung.

“That’s Nae,” I said before hoping out of the bed. I rushed downstairs to open the door.

“Hey,” she hugged me as I opened the door.

“Hey,” I pecked her lips before letting her inside.

“So is your cousin here yet?” She asked. I shook my head. Paris should be here any minute. I’m so excited to see her because I haven’t seen her in years.

“Hi Jaznae,” Mere said as she came downstairs. Nae nodded but didn’t say anything. I sighed at her rudeness and sent Mere an apologetic look. The doorbell rung and I rushed to get it.

“Paris!” I shouted as I pulled her into a hug. When she came in, everyone’s mouth dropped. I knew what they were gonna say; Paris and I look a lot alike. We get mistaken for twins a lot but we don’t see it.

“There ain’t no way y’all aren’t related,” Mere said as she looked in between us. We both laughed before I helped her with her stuff.

  

Nicki’s P.O.V.

Drake and I were cuddling in the bed. He gave me head but didn’t stop until I reached my fourth orgasm. I didn’t even think it was capable to reach four. “I don’t think Cassie’s gonna come back,” I told him. It sucks to admit that but she’s so closed in that no one can break through.

“We just need to figure out what’s wrong with her and try to get her back,” he acted like it was so simple but I know Cass; she’s stubborn as hell.

“She just looked horrible and she never wears that hoodie anymore but now she refuses to take it off,” I couldn’t think of a reason for her to do that.

“You think she’s pregnant?” He question. That thought ran through my mind, but who am I to know if it’s true or not? She doesn’t tell anyone anything dealing with her.

“Hell if I know. I’ll try to figure it out because we need her,” I whispered before falling asleep. I’ll talk to her tomorrow.

~

The next day, I went to Cassie’s house alone. I knocked on the door but it was unlocked. I told her to stop leaving it unlocked; anyone could walk in. I walked upstairs when I heard her puking. I quickly went to her bathroom and held her hair; I rubbed her back as she continued. She got up and brushed her teeth. She then slid to the floor in tears. I sat next to her and pulled her into me.

“Are you pregnant?” I asked her quietly. She tensed up for a minute but then relaxed. She let out a dry laugh before responding.

“No I’m not pregnant,” she admitted. I’m not sure if I exactly believe her because she’s not making eye contact.

“Then why are you throwing up?” None of this is adding up. Nothing with Cassie adds up these days.

“I ate something bad,” she mumbled before standing up. I looked at her as she pulled her hoodie tighter. She hasn’t worn a hoodie in years. Now that I think about it, she hates hoodies.

“Why are you always wearing a hoodie now?” I raised an eyebrow. She’s acting so strange and won’t fully answer my questions.

“They’re comfortable. Please just drop it Nic,” she sighed before plopping on her bed. I let it go and plopped right next to her.

“I’m sorry,” she whispered.

“I am too,” I hugged her.

 

Chimere’s P.O.V.

“I figured out how to explain it,” I told Blake as I walked into her room.

“Explain what?” She turned around in a sports bra and sweats. God be with me. She doesn’t know how hard it is to keep my hands to myself but I wouldn’t disrespect Jaznae like that. I don’t like her but I know what it feels like to be cheated on.

“How to explain oral sex,” I smiled. Blake instantly grew nervous. She’s such a virgin but that’s not always a bad thing.

“You did?” She whispered. I nodded and grabbed her hand. I pulled her to my room and sat her on the bed.

“This is the only way to show you without touching you. I got this from my cousin,” I told her before putting the DVD in. He’s always been a freak and into things like this. Two girls appeared on the screen and I heard Blake take in a breath.

“What’s this?” She asked curiously.

“It’s a sex tape,” I said simply. I figured she hadn’t ever seen one before but it’s the only way I could explain this to her.

“Why would someone put their mouth there?” She scrunched up her face.

“Because it feels good,” She just didn’t know how good it felt. Guy or girl, I don’t care as long as their head game is on point.

“It does?” She turned to me. She was honestly confused.

“Yep, it takes you to a high point that you’ve never reach before. It feels like your whole world shatters when you reach you peak,” I moaned out. Just thinking of head gets me so hot. Blake opened her mouth to say something but then closed it. The DVD ended so it was silent. It seemed like a dozen thoughts were running through her mind. 

“Wow,” she said fascinated. I closed my eyes and let out a groan.

“Blake get out,” I turned away from her.  

“Huh?” She looked at me confused. This girl doesn’t get the hint.

“Blakelynn get out,” I locked eyes with her. She got up and left my room.

Drake’s P.O.V.

Shad called me and told me what happened to Cassie. I’ve always wanted to hurt that nigga for what he did to Nicki so this is just extra motivation. We creep up to his warehouse where he and his gang hid out. I know what y’all thinking but I am not in a gang. I was when I was a teen and on special occasions we’ll reunite. This is one of those special occasions. As soon as we got inside, we started shooting. Catching them off guard, they fell to the ground. There was one guy left with two guns in his hands.

“I know you,” he smirked at Shad. Shad looked at him in confusion. “I fucked your girl. She was good but a lil fat,” he laughed. I shot him and he fell to the ground but not before his gun went off. I thought he hit me but I didn’t feel anything. I looked behind me and saw Shad clutching his shoulder.

“Damn!” I said as I rushed to him. “How do you feel?” I asked him as the crew surrounded him.

“It hurt like hell but at least he’s dead,” he chuckled.

“Imma take him to the hospital while you guys clean up this mess,” I commanded the guys as they nodded.

 

Cassie’s P.O.V.

As soon as Nicki and I got the call from Coach Graham, we rushed to the hospital. Too many people have been here recently. I rushed up to Shad’s floor and into his room. I saw him sitting up, laughing with Coach Graham.

“Baby,” I sighed as I rushed over to him. He wrapped his good arm around me as I hugged him.

“I’m okay,” he whispered. I didn’t listen, I kept crying. He’s so stupid for doing something like this and this is exactly why I didn’t tell him.

“You could’ve gotten even more hurt,” I cried.

“I know but I’m okay and he’s dead. You never have to worry about him again,” he kissed my head. I looked up to him and kissed him. I’ve missed him so much. “Please don’t leave me Cass,” he whispered against my lips.

“I’m never gonna leave you again,” I promised; maybe it’s time I come back.
