“Welcome to the party fuck boy.” Delow was talking shit.
“What the fuck you on my nigga?” He hadn’t even noticed me yet.
“Your time is up.” Finally noticing I was there as well, he knew that it was over for him. Once we got to the middle of the woods, I grabbed the other rope and tied it to a tree. After making a noose, we picked him up and put it around his neck. Tightening it, I looked over to Delow to see if he really wanted to go through with it and his face had murder written all over it. Taking that as my cue to finish, I lifted him off the ground. Reaching in the bag, I pulled out a butcher knife and started hacking off body parts. Delow reached in the bag for the other knife and started doing the same. Sosa was screaming for dear life, but I didn’t give a fuck. After making sure enough was gone, I grabbed the tool bag and told Delow that’s enough.
“We not trying to be butchers nigga. I just wanted to have him bleed enough so the animals would smell it and come eat his ass. That’s enough, let’s go.” Turning around to walk back towards the warehouse, Delow fired. Looking back, he had shot Sosa in the head.
“You feel better now nigga?” I laughed as we walked in.
“It wasn’t about feeling better, I just didn’t want his ass to get lucky and fuck around and get away.”
“Get away how? He didn’t have any legs.”
“I don’t know, but I wasn’t taking no chances.” Throwing the bag in my trunk, I walked back in the warehouse and got the can of gasoline that’s always there. Pouring it all over, I set a match and hauled ass. Too much DNA was all over that mother fucker. I didn’t want this shit to ever come back and bite us in the ass. Normally when I’m here I wear gloves, but I didn’t have any today and Auri and her dad was all over it.
When I dropped Delow back off to his car, I let my window down.
“I’ll buy you another warehouse. The city is yours. Just make sure I get my cut. We have no idea what happened with that nigga Sosa. I’ll have the connect call you tomorrow.” Nodding his head up and down, I let my window up and got the fuck out of dodge. The ride home was quiet, guess everybody was in their own thoughts. When I pulled up to Auri’s father house, I finally spoke.
“Tonight didn’t happen.”
“Understood.” Her father said as he got out the car. Auri was about to get out when I stopped her.
“You’re going with me.”
“Okay.” She sat back and closed her eyes.
When we got to our destination, I tapped her and she opened her eyes.
“Where are we?”
“Rehab. You need to get yourself together. I am going to be here for you every step of the way and at the end of your journey, I have a surprise for you.”
“Okay and I’m sorry for everything.” She hugged me as she cried.
“Me too baby girl. It’s going to be okay though. I’ll see you tomorrow. Nodding, she got out of the car and went to check herself into rehab. Pulling off, I laughed at myself. This damn girl got me as sprung as a Sealy posturpedic.
****
The next day, I was preparing to leave the hospital to go check on Auri. My mom was here to watch Faith. She agreed to come every day for a few hours, while I visited with her.
“Are you going to tell her today that her baby is alive?”
“No, every time Auri got clean, it was always for somebody else. Me or the baby. This time, I want her to do it for her. If she doesn’t want to be clean, she will always relapse. She has to want it. We can’t want it for her.”
“I’m sure she will stay clean now that you done killed her drug dealer.”
“I have no idea what you are talking about.”
“I bet you don’t, you think I don’t know who you are, but I birthed you and I raised you. It’s my business to know. Plus, Hannah told me what you said to her.” Laughing, I kissed my baby girl and prepared to leave out the door. I would never admit that shit to my mama.
“See you in a few hours mama.
Everything was looking up and I couldn’t wait to see what the future holds.
CHAPTER 43- AURI
I couldn’t believe this was graduation number three. So much had happened in my life, I don’t know how I made it. This time my sponsors helped me realize Sosa was a poison, like the drugs. He got me hooked and that’s the reason I ran back to him every time. I had him lumped in with the drugs. They were a package deal. Now that one of the ties were broken, I should be able to break the other one and not go back. Sosa had me thinking I was in love with him, when really, I was only addicted to his pain. The minute he gave me those drugs, he knew he had me. Being naïve, I didn’t realize I only wanted him because of the drugs. I thought I was in love with his ass. Deleon was the one that held my heart. I had hurt him so much and no matter how mad he got, he was always right there to pick up the pieces. Except today. As the speaker went on and on about the tools we would need to take with us, I was disappointed to see he was not here. To make sure the shit was all the way out of my system, I did the six month program. He was here every day to visit me. Now on my big day, he was nowhere to be found. We hadn’t discussed what would happen when I got out, but I was hopeful he would take me back. Him not being here only proved he was just being nice. I half ass listened as they called everyone’s name one by one to receive their certificate and medal. When they got to my name, I almost didn’t want to get up because I had nobody there to cheer for me.
“Auriana Prescott.” As I stood, the screams that came from the back were deafening. It was so loud you would have thought they were next to me. Turning around, there stood my family. It was my parents, Joann, Delow, and Deleon was holding a baby. My smile quickly turned to tears when I realize he had another baby. Each step I took my heart ached. He didn’t even grieve Faith long before he had another one. Grabbing my stuff, I didn’t want to even go to the back. I wanted to run and hide, but I knew I couldn’t be that person anymore. She was the reason I always ran to drugs. Dragging my legs, I walked to the back and hugged everybody except Deleon. I was trying my best to avoid him like the plague. Finally making my way over, I hugged him and thanked him for coming.
“You’re not going to thank Faith for coming?” Turning her around, I was able to see her face and it was my baby. Not being able to control my screams, the other people were looking at me like I was crazy.
“How? I thought... How?” Laughing at me, he handed me the baby.
“We will talk about it later.” Crying I held her as tight as I could, she was wearing casts on some parts of her body. Walking out, I had so many questions. Deleon knew everything after coming to visit me every day. I told him about the post I saw on Facebook and that was the reason I started back using. He came here every day listening to me talk about the death of our baby and she was alive. If I wasn’t so happy I would beat his ass. We all headed back up to the hospital, Faith had one more week left and then she could go home. He had to bribe the doctors into letting her come to the graduation. We stopped and got some food along the way and we celebrated my graduation right in the room with my daughter. The nurse walked in and it was the bitch Deleon brought to the funeral. Squeezing my hand, that was his way of letting me know it was okay and there was nothing between them. If I did think she wanted my man, all of that went out the window the way she kept looking over at Delow. He didn’t even notice because he was in his own thoughts. He looked so sad and broken.
“Hannah this is Delow, Delow this is Hannah.” Deleon had introduced them and she looked at him for reassurance. Nodding his head letting her know it was okay. She walked over to Delow and they started talking. Everyone seemed genuinely happy.
“Ma, can you stay with Faith tonight, me and Auri need to talk.”
“Go head son I’ll see you tomorrow.” Grabbing my hand, we said our goodbyes and left. The ride to his house was long and quiet. When we stepped in the door, I noticed my Lexus was parked in his drive way. As soon as I walked in the door, I started crying. The banner read welcome home Aur
i and it was balloons everywhere saying congrats. Pulling me to him, he kissed me. Leaning back, I needed to know the answer to one thing first.
“Why did you continue to let me think my baby was dead?” Sitting down on the couch, he pulled me to his lap.
“For the longest, I didn’t know you thought that. I just thought you didn’t come up to the hospital. My dumb ass hadn’t realized you would see the post and think it was the baby. The post was about you. When you came to my door saying Sosa killed the baby I thought you were high. I didn’t know you actually thought the baby was dead until you called my phone.
When I dropped you off at rehab, I made the decision not to tell you because I wanted you to do it for yourself and not anybody else. Listening to you talk about her, but still being strong showed me you were ready and you weren’t running anymore. I’m sorry if that hurt you, but I wanted you to want to be clean for yourself. Not because you thought you had to be.” Understanding totally where he was coming from, I leaned down and kissed him.
“If it’s okay with you, I brought all of your stuff here and I want you to move in with me and the baby. I love you baby girl and it’s time we get it together.” Not being able to control my tears, I stood up and grabbed his hand. Walking him to the shower, I removed my clothes and we got in. Just like he did me on our very first time, I washed him up. Getting down on my knees, I took him in my mouth.
“Fuck. I missed you baby girl.” I didn’t respond, but I showed him I missed him with every touch. Picking me up, he lifted me over his shoulders and started to suck on my clit. Before today I hadn’t even realized how much I missed his touch. Sliding me back down, he entered me. He pounded in me like it was urgent. Matching his pace, I bounced up and down on his dick letting him know I needed him too. With each stroke, my body shuddered. Not being able to hold it anymore, I screamed out.
“Baby I’m about to cum.”
“Fuck me too.” He moaned in my ear and right there in the shower, with the water raining down on us. Washing everything from our past away, we came. I knew then, with Sosa I was addicted to his pain, but with Deleon I was addicted to his love for me.
EPILOGUE
DELEON…
Two years ago, you couldn’t have paid me to think I would be here. Auri was on stage at her fourth graduation, but this time she had passed the bar. Sitting there, I couldn’t have been happier for her. We had been through a lot, but we made it. My momma told me a while ago, that the heart wants what the heart wants and I was happy as fuck it wanted Auri. When Auri walked towards us smiling, I passed Faith to my mom. Delow and Hannah were smiling at me because they knew what I was about to do. I’m glad they had each other. They helped each other heal and they became the perfect couple. Nervous as all hell, I reached in my pocket and grabbed the box that was in it. As soon as she walked up, I got down on one knee.
“When I met you, my soul moved and my heart skipped a beat. I said to myself, this girl is going to be mine. Not knowing that the road we were about to travel was going to be a hard one. But I learned in life that anything worth having is worth fighting for. It seems like I have been fighting for that love since I met you. On today, the fight ends. All I want to do is love you and make you happier than you have ever been. I need you as bad as a heartbeat. Would you do me the honor of being my forever?” It seemed like an eternity when she leaned her tear filled face down to mine.
“Yes. Yes. Yes.” Standing up, I grabbed her and kissed her with everything inside of me.
“Ewww mommy kissed daddy.” Faith made everybody laugh.
“Come here, daddy wants to kiss you too.”

“Damn baby, suck this clit. Right there. Don’t stop daddy.” This bitch was getting on my nerves with all this talking.
“Bitch I know how to eat pussy damn. Now can you nut so I can stick my dick in? I got somewhere to go.” Looking at me like she wanted to say something smart, she thought better of it when I looked up at her. My eyes were a pretty grey, but them bitches was ice cold.
“Fuck I’m about to cum. Yes, baby. Yes.” Her body started shaking and I couldn’t be happier. Grabbing my condom, I slid that bitch on and slid my dick in her now ready pussy. As soon as I got inside of her I knew this was a mistake. This bitch pussy was loose as a goose. When I tell you I didn’t feel nothing, I didn’t feel shit. It felt like my ass was fucking air. Slamming my dick inside her, I tried moving my hips side to side to feel something. This bitch started screaming for dear life.
“Oh God, this dick is so fucking good. This is your pussy baby.” She knows damn well she didn’t feel my dick because I couldn’t feel that mother fucker. If I didn’t already know it was there I would have thought I lost that bitch in the waves. I started slamming my dick like crazy and shuddered some. Faking a nut because I needed to get up out this bitch right now. I rolled over like I was wore out and she had the best shit ever.
“Too bad I gotta go, I was gone give you an all nighter.” Smiling at her I got up and threw my clothes on. Removing the condom, I stuck the shit in my pocket.
“Why you doing all of that baby, I have a garbage can.” She looked offended.
“I know baby, it’s just something for me to keep until I see you again. I gotta remember this good pussy.” This bitch looked shaky. Like she might try to turkey base my shit. “I’ll call you later after my meeting.” I kissed her on her jaw and went to walk out of the door.
“Hoover nobody, does it like yooouuu.” Did this bitch really start singing the vacuum commercial? Simple bitches. Laughing, I damn near ran out of her shit. Jumping in my Rover, I looked at my phone and saw that I had 20 missed calls. I called Quick back because I didn’t want to talk to Baby Face ass.
“Nigga you know Baby Face mad than a mother fucker. He says your ass always late.”
“I know nigga. I was fucking that bitch from the bank. I had to get the key to the vault just in case shit didn’t go as planned.”
“Damn, your ass living the life, you get to fuck fine ass bitches and finesse them out they shit.”
“Nigga she fine, but that hoe’s pussy was trash. I would have rather fucked the janitor.” Busting out laughing Quick could barely talk.
“I’m surprised you didn’t set her shit on fire for it being that whack.”
“Bye nigga, I’ll be there in a minute.”
Zayn “Blaze” Hoover. I’m sure you can tell how I got my nick name. I was the fire starter. Been that way since I was a kid. My mama couldn’t stand that shit either. My dumb ass would just sit around the house striking matches and flicking lighters all day. One time I went too far and I got my ass beat.
“Blaze quit flicking that damn lighter and come eat.” Getting up to go in the kitchen, Quick ass tripped me and I hit the wall and busted my lip. “Ma, look what Zavier did. I’m bleeding.” She barely looked at me. “Boy you are alright. Now sit your ass down before you get that shit everywhere.” Everybody was laughing, but I was pissed. I was tired of my little brother getting away with everything. He was gone pay today. Waiting until they all were sitting down watching Martin, I walked behind the couch and flicked my lighter. Pretending I tripped on some old shoes, I attempted to throw the lighter into Quick’s lap. But my aim was off and it landed in mama good wig. Before I could say anything that damn hair caught fire so fast, I couldn’t say shit. She jumped up beating the hell out of her head. “Mama, just take it off.” Baby face was yelling at her, but I think she was trying to save her good wig. When she finally got that fire out, she beat the hell out me for 3 days straight. Every time she thought about it, I got my ass beat.
Now at the age of 26, my fire infatuation is much bigger. I will set a mother fucker on fire in a minute. Looking at me you would never know it though. I was a pretty ass nigga with tats all over my
body. I tried my best to look like the street nigga I was. I didn’t want mother fuckers to see me and think shit was sweet. Niggas knew our name though and they knew not to fuck with us. As fabulous said “I’m a movement by myself, but we’re a force when we’re together.” Walking in the building these niggas was in here talking shit.
“Don’t be talking about me when I ain’t here. I will set your fucking curls on fire.” When I said it, I looked over at Baby Face and that nigga got the fuck out the way. He knew I would flick my Bic in a second.
“Glad to see you decided to join us.” Baby Face spat at me and the nigga was still patting his curls.
“Nigga I had to get the key. Yall be blowing the fuck out of me acting like I ain’t working when I’m out here getting this pussy.”
“Don’t blame that shit on work. Your ass fuck everything under the sun and now you wanna say it’s because of work.” Quick started laughing until he saw me eye balling his hairline.
“You are too old to be still fucking like you crazy. Get you a good woman like I did. The shit is easier.” Shadow would kill anybody’s buzz.
“Nigga imma start calling your ass Deacon Frye. You be on that other shit ever since you got engaged. YOU GOT ENGAGED, NOT US.” Everybody started dapping it up when I said that comment. “Somebody tell me what the move is? I’m trying to head over to the club tonight. I need to go get ready.”
“Which club?” Shadow asked looking weary.
“Hoover Nights. We know you not allowed in Diamond in the Rough no more.”
“Shut the fuck up, she knows that’s my shit. I wish she would tell me I can’t go in my shit, but I’m down for the club tonight too.” We laughed because we knew this nigga was fronting.
“Shid, we all in that mother fucker then. Baby Face, tell this late ass nigga the plan so we can get up out of here.” I reached in my pocket and pulled the condom out I had just used on that bitch and threw it in Quick’s hair.
