Nobody's Going To Love You Like I Do

Can you stay?

Oscar's POV

"Yo Spooky let me get another burger" Sad Eyes says holding out his plate. "Fool you've had 3 already" I point out drinking my beer. "Ay Spooky," Huerita whines, "don't you see he needs to eat" she says wrapping her arms around him. "This fool eats and stays flaco" Mando says walking up. "It's because I run a lot" Sad Eyes says lifting his shirt. "Yeah your mouth" I say laughing. Sad Eyes flicks me off as we all laugh.

The Santos were having another party at my place. Cholas, beers, food, blunts and music playing all through out the house. Mando places an arm around me, "Yo Spooky the Hynas are wild tonight" he says then heads to the cooler for a beer. "They always are when you give them Liquor" I respond dryly sitting in a chair.

I chug my beer and look at a call coming in. I stand up furrowing my brows, "V?" I answer confused putting the phone to my ear. Mando smiles drinking his beer sitting on the cooler infront of me. "Where you at?!" I grunt balling my hand into a fist. "Come here! you'll be safe" Mando's expression changes, he stands up standing infront of me. I shake my head angrily, "I'm on my way" I say sternly.

"Que paso primo?" he asks concerned. "Those pinche Prophet$ ran down on her in an alley. Threatened her" "Why doesn't she come here?!" "She doesn't want to start a war, she tried going to the cops but they were posted outside and he said he'll come after her aunt and her friend, Leah if she does" I explain grabbing my gun. "Who's he?" "Johnny B" "Cabron" Mando says shaking his head scratching his head.

"We gotta call Cuchillos, we need a blessing so we can end this shit with the Prophet$" Mando says pulling out his phone. "Cuchillos isn't going to go to war over V!" I argue. "Escuchame primo," Mando explains placing a hand on my shoulder, "we should to talk to the cabeza of the Prophet$ atleast, we need to get the green light or this could end bad" "He's right" I think to myself huffing, "she's scared Compa, she doesn't know where to go" I say rubbing my head. "Take care of V primo, I'll talk to Cuchillos and handle the Prophet$" Mando says tapping my arm pointing towards my car for me to go. I nod then head to my Impala and drive off.

20 minutes later

V's POV

I sit in my Buick a few houses down from my house. Simultaneously looking between my rearview mirror and the street ahead. *beep beep*

Spooky- walk to your house.

I grab my phone and keys and slowly step out the car looking around me. Oscar is coming from the opposite direction. My heart begins to race the closer I get to my house. Oscar walks behind me stands on my front porch looking around. I begin to sob as I struggle to unlock the front door. He stands next to me and gently grabs the keys from my hand unlocking the door for me.

He enters first, turns on the lights and begins to walk around the first floor with his glock in his hand while I lock the front door. He passes by me and heads upstairs. I text my aunt to let her know I'm home safe. "She doesn't need to worry" I thought to myself.

Oscar comes down the stairs, "there's nobody here, you're good as long as you lock the front door. I locked the sliding door and the windows" he says pointing behind him towards the kitchen. I nod my head. "Um..." I say shakily looking up at him with bloodshot eyes, "can you-can you stay here while I shower p-please" I stutter. He stares at me and nods. I start walking up my steps. "You can come upstairs if you want to" I say to him stopping halfway.
