It's the first book of the series.
A story of betrayal and darkness, pain and sadness.
With all the good comes a lot of bad...with all the joy and happiness comes a lot of anger and weakness.
Our story begins in the year 2001.
A woman from Detroit...
I left the hospital 2 and a half weeks ago and I returned to my work one week ago. I'm now at work on my lunch break..I'm just eating and watching tv in the kitchen when My phone vibrated
From Emma: (2:06pm) Hey girl! Look remember when you were in the hospital I told you that proof and I Exchanged numbers?
To Emma: (2:08pm) Yeah. Why?
From Emma: (2:11pm) Well we're talking for a while now and he invited me to go hangout with him and d12 you know..and he told me it's cool if I'll bring you with me. Only if you want?
I don't know if I wanna face Marshall again. He made me so angry last time I despise him. And to think I used to like him but well... as I said people are different off camera.
To Emma: (2:17pm) I don't think so hon. I don't wanna face Marshall. after the last time I saw him I can't even think of him without the need to vomit.
From Emma: (2:20pm) So don't girl. If he wants to talk with you walk away. come on I know you really liked the rest of d12 let's go have some fun ;)
I do like the rest of them they're so nice too.
To Emma: (2:21pm) Ok. But if Marshall gonna start some shit I'm out.
From Emma: (2:14pm) Thanks girl I own you. <3 btw, you wanna come to my place for a drink before we go?
To Emma: (2:15pm) Yeah sounds good. And no problem girl :)

to finish the look I take a simple but still fancy high silver heels. For makeup I'm doing something more gentle and soft. Mixing my eyes with shades of really soft pink and put this beautiful nude matte lipstick and do my regular mascara and eyeliner.
*** I got to Emma's house and she looks absolutely beautiful! with her dark blue dress her makeup up is on fleek and she just kills this look. We drink a little bit you know to set a mood.
"So em what's going on between you and proof" I said with a smirk and I now see her blush
"I don't know Nao he's just so nice and funny you saw how we talked all night long and I can't believe we didn't fuck." She said which made me laugh
"I'm so sorry em I really fucked it up for you" I said trying to show her a sad smile
"It's all good girl. now I got a second chance and no way in hell I'm fucking this up" she said sipping from her drink and I chuckled a little
The cab is outside and we just give the finish touches and go to the cab. We get to the club the same one we were last time and go straight to the VIP room. the security guard let us go through and we immediately spot proof and Marshall we walk up to them and hug them well I only hug proof but Marshall give me a cold stare and I return it.
"Yo Naomi how are you girl? You feelin well?" Proof said while we go to take a sit
"Yeah yeah I'm fine now thanks" I say with a smile and that's when all d12 say 'sup' and 'yo' to us
"Yo Naomi where you ran off last time we saw you? You didn't even say goodbye girl." Bizarre now say
"She went to the hospital dawg I told you" proof now say while putting his are around Emma
"Oh shit I forgot. How you feeling Neyo" bizarre said and I laughed
"The fuck man? Neyo? Is that the best you got?" Proof now said to him and chuckled I just shake my head and look at bizarre
"I'm good thank you" I said through laughters
"What happened girl you ran away from Marshall and fell?" Swifty now say which made all of them laugh and me chuckle and I looked at Marshall who just look at swiftly with emotionless face
"Shut the fuck up swifty" marshall hisses and now look at me "Yo can We talk for a second" he asked me
"No I got nothing to say to you" I said with a bitchy tone and all of them said 'o' under their breath. Marshall glares at them and look back at me now grab my hand and force me to go after him. He takes us to the room we were in last time where all the shit went down. He now just stares at me still holding my wrist and I yanked my hand away from his grip
"what the fuck is your problem" I ask him now completely angry
"Why you gotta be such a bitch? I just want to talk " he said now looking at me checking me out
I click my finger to make him look back to my eyes "talk" I just say. He sigh and rub his face
"I'm sorry ok? I know that what I did was messed up for real I didn't know what was going through my head. I should've apologize to you in the proper way the day I saw you in the hospital" he say and I just keep staring at him he sigh again and continue "I know you probably don't want to hear me out and to be honest if you were some slut I would never even talk to you again. But the rest of the guys really like you cause you're chill and I just want to say sorry.. cause you're different and click with us and I just wanna be friends and so is the rest of the guys" I can see on his face that he hate this. He don't want to apologize which makes this even better.
"Why didn't you stop when I told you to stop?" I ask him
"I don't know Naomi the drugs were just too much that night." He day and we just look at each other for a minute
"I'm still angry with you" I say and went to walk off but he grabbed my arm which made me turn my head back to him
"I know and I know I gave you a real bad first impression but let me try to fix it. I'm actually a really nice guy it's just i can be an asshole sometimes." He said but again I just stare at him and he stick out his hand and I frown at him "let's start over. Hi I'm Marshall" he look at me and it's like he's hoping I'd forgive him but then the corner of my mouth turn into a smile and he smile back I take his hand and shake it.
"Hi I'm Naomi . Nice to meet you" I say and chuckle a little. Ok yeah I gave in! it looks like he's really trying and everyone deserves a second chance right?
"You forgive me?" He ask
"Yeah but you better not fuck it up. And by the way I'm sorry.. I know i was wrong too" I say and see him smile down at me
"Don't apologize it's all good" he smile and take a step back to let me get out of the room "let's go back to the guys"
