Loyal

Chapter 42

LULU POV
2 DAYS LATER

So the girls and I are walking back to the house since we live close to the store. Also because we needed some fresh air. The boys are back home smoking and playing their game.

Ayisha: That nigga had some balls to come up to me and ask for my number as if my nigga doesn't kill people for a living.

They giggled along with her but I didn't. It's still new to me that Ricky and his friends have killed people before. I'm still tryna digest everything.

A couple of cars came our way so we moved from the road and onto the sidewalk. The cars stopped and some guys came out coming our way. That instantly trigger a survival mode. We started running.

Those niggas ran after us. My heart was beating fast and I couldn't think straight no more. We got back to the house. As we were about to get in, i was pulled back.

Me: GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!! RICKY!!

This person pulled me back. I looked to my side and saw a couple of them there.

Ayisha: GET OFF OF HER!!

The boys then started coming outta the house. I felt a cold substance on my head. I hope it's not what I think it is. A fucking gun on my head. That shit instantly made me cry. I look carefully at the guy and I realised that it was Malik. Oh fucking great.

Malik: You thought you killed me huh? Pussy ass nigga (chuckling).

Ricky: Let her go.

Malik: See now you have no ground to be demanding shit.

Me: M-Malik.....

Malik: Shut the fuck up.

Ricky tried to step closer to us but Malik noticed and put more pressure on the gun.

Malik: Uh uh uh, step away fore I blow her brains out.

Ricky then stepped back and was aligned with everyone else.

Malik: Now your gonna let me and my girl out of this dump.

Ricky: You ain't going nowhere with him bitch.

Malik: Bitch? BITCH?!!

His chuckled sent a shiver down my spine.

Malik: Well if I can't have her, no one can.

Huh? What the fuck? What the fuck do I have to do with this?

Santiago: Man you better put that gun down, this ain't a damn movie.

Malik: I've had enough of you and your smart mouth.

He said pointing the gun at Santiago. He had me in a chokehold and Malik is very tall. I lifted my right leg and it collided with his dick. He groaned in pain, he dropped the gun and let me go. I ran over to Ricky while the guys went to Malik and grabbed him.

Ricky: Get him outta here.

He said. I watched a white van pull up and they threw him inside. I've watched a lot of movies and I know that if anyone is taken by a white van like that, they ain't coming back but good riddance.

Ricky: Are you okay?

He said wiping my tears away.

Me: Y-yeah I-I'm fine.

I can't believe I almost got killed by Malik. Damn. Ricky picked me up and carried me inside. He carried me all the way to our room putting me on the bed and closing the door.

Ricky: Go to sleep baby.

Me: No I'm fine.

He sighed and sat beside me.

Ricky: I need to up my game man.

Me: What are you talking about?

What is he talking about?

Ricky: Ever since I got with you I've gotten soft.

Oh.

Ricky: I don't mean it in a bad way baby don't get me wrong but niggas been trying their luck. I needa send a message to them, by using Malik.

Me: Are you gonna kill him?

Ricky: Let me worry about that.

Every time I let him handle it, someone ends up in the hospital or dead.

Me: Ricky you can't go around killing people like this.

He raised his eyebrow at me.

Ricky: The fuck does that mean?

Me: I mean don't you have to lay low after you killed those two cops?

I remember that night like it was yesterday. It still traumatises me but I had to accept that my boyfriend is a monster.

Ricky: Man I'm good. I ain't gon be going to jail.

Me: How do you know that?

Ricky: Cause I been doing this shit for 6 years.

Huh? Ricky is 22 by the way.

Me: So you been pushing drugs and killing people since you were 16?

What in the fuck?

Ricky: Well if you put it in that way it sounds bad (chuckling).

I needa slap the shit outta this nigga one day.

Ricky: Look I know what I'm doing okay? Trust me.

Me: Trust? You? Do you even know the meaning of the word?

He rolled his eyes.

Ricky: Don't do this man.

Me: Do what Ricky? You been cheating on me remember? Or did you forget?

Ricky: I didn't forget. I know I cheated but what does me cheating on you and protecting you have to do with anything? That shit don't make sense.

Me: Because I don't trust you anymore Ricky and you haven't done anything to earn back my trust.

He gave me a "the fuck" face.

Ricky: Whatchu mean? I been taking you out for food, shopping, giving you money, a whole car and some dick on top of that.

Me: You think just because you did all that I trust you again?

Ricky: Yes the fuck.

Niggas be so damn stupid sometimes I swear to God.

Me: Dick and money won't make up for the shit you put me through Ricky.

Ricky: I know man but how we supposed to move on from shit if you keep bringing it up?

Me: Because you hurt me Ricky and you don't even understand that.

He sighed and held my hands.

Ricky: I understand man and I've apologised. I've changed.

I sighed, I guess he has.

Ricky: I love you man and I mean that shit.

He pulled me on top of him and we cuddled.

Me: I love you too.

Even though his stupid ass has put me through SOOO much. I still love this man.

I didn't proof read, I apologise for any errors.
