Brittany Hills Chronicles: Act 2

Valentino 66

I had a couple days off so I figured it would be best to let my bros know I wasn't coming back to Brittany Hills and honestly I had been stalling... I was heading back out tomorrow and I still hadn't worked up the courage to tell them. I wanted to tell them but there was so much going on; Carter was on daddy duty, Ronnie was never here, Dejon was always lost in his thoughts, and there was this unspoken tension between Jace and Tay that they refused to elaborate on but I knew it was now or never seeing as how my replacement was moving in later this week. I walked into Carter's room and he was pacing around with his screaming daughter, Carter looked dead tired yet determined.... karma was in full effect because everyone knows how much hell Carter caused and now he was getting it all back in the form of Corrina. I walked over to him and took her out of his arms and instantly she stopped crying, Carter rolled his eyes and yawned before sitting on his bed.

"Bruh she's been up crying since five this morning.... I've tried everything, she's not hungry, she's doesn't need to be changed, I gave her a bath, been pacing around trying to get her to go back to sleep but she ain't going." Carter said stifling yet another yawn.

"Here try putting her head next to your heart....." I said handing Carter back Corrina and thankfully she stopped shrieking. "This girl I used to date had a kid.... so I picked up a few things. What time is Bianca supposed to be picking her up?" I asked sitting on the other side of his bed.

"In a few minutes.... when she gets here I'm going to need for you to give me a couple minutes, don't judge me but I always get a little emotional when she has to leave me." Carter said looking down at his daughter who was now sleeping. "I seen you on Youtube.... did that girl really take her panties off and throw them on stage?" Carter asked laughing and I really didn't want to think about that, I swear people be so quick to record some shyt which meant I had to be extra careful. "So when were you going to tell me you were moving out?" Carter asked and I quickly looked at him. "I overheard Ms. Gina and Big Mike talking about some new dude and I figured it was either you are Dejon that was leaving and since Dejon would've told us by now that only leaves you..... is this what you want?"

"Yeah, I mean I'm going to miss y'all niggas but at the same time.... I'll always be around, Dro wants me to move to New York at he end of the summer so I can focus on this music shyt and y'all got enough to worry about without me bringing cameras and crazy fans to the house. The last thing I want is for some report to show up and put a mic in Jace's faces... can you imagine all the crazy shyt that would come out his mouth?" I asked laughing.

"Jace has his own problems to worry about...... but I'm happy for you Tino, I'm not going to lie when I first met you I wanted to beat your ass but over time you've grown to be the brother I never had and it would be the most selfish thing I've ever done to stand in the way of your dream.... just don't let that money go to your head." Carter said smirking and just as I was about to remind him that we've already fought and I beat him easily Bianca walked into the room and distracted me.

"I'll be back let me go talk to Jace real quick." I said walking down the hall to Jace's room where he was putting some sweatpants on, Vaseline on his face, and a scarf around his head. "Do I even want to ask?" I asked looking at Jace who began cracking his knuckles and stretching.

"I'm just getting ready for when the replacement gets here, I'm not going to start no trouble but I'm going to be ready for anything.... the last replacement we got was Carter and we all know how that turned out. Quantavius doesn't really count because he didn't replace anybody but Carter replaced Sir Michael who is......." Jace said looking at me and I guess the secret was out. "Don't look so sad Valentino.... I knew this day was bound to come sooner or later and I'm happy for you sis."

"Bro what did I tell you about calling me sis?" I said shaking my head. "And I thought the new dude wasn't coming until next week?" I asked.

"Oh Valentino...... when will you learn that I don't take orders? But seriously I'm going to miss you....." Jace said as he began fake crying. "And I don't know when he's supposed to be here but I wanna be ready just in case."
