Chapter 33

Ignore the mistakes.

" Oooo we looking good."

I took 5 more pictures. " I know right." I sat down on my bed then put on my heels.

" I hope, I don't  fall."

" Same." Ariana laughed as she sat next to me.

I started to bit down on my nails and bounce my leg.

" Whats wrong? "

I sighed. " I'm nervous."

" 'Bout telling Aug your pregnant? "

I nodded. " Yeah, I don't even know how to tell him or bring it up."

" Daejah it's gon' be okay, just try not to panic." She told me.

" That's gon' be hard."

" I know but -"

" Daejah and Ariana are y'all ready, the limo here."

" We comin!" We yelled as we grabbed our stuff then walked out of my room, downstairs.

" Awwww." Momma cooed as she took pictures. Ariana and I bothed blushed.

August just stared at me. " Dang Aug', you gon' say some of just stare?" Davontae laughed as he grabbed Ariana hand.

" Davontae don't try to play, 'cause you were the exact same way with Ariana at her house. " Momma said.

" How you know? "

" 'Cause Makayla and I are best friends and she sent me the video when Ariana walked down."

" Awe yeah, I forgot. "

" Yeah of course you did, now get together so I can take pictures. "

We all got together and took a couple group pictures, then couple pictures and then individual pictures. When we got finished, August walked towards. " Baybeh ya' lookin' so muh'fuckin sexy."

I blushed. " Thank you August. You look handsome." I gently tugged in his chin hair then rubbed his chest.

" Gimme ah kiss." He mumbled. I pecked his lips a couple of times then kissed him.

" Thank ya baybeh...." He bit down in his lip. " Can we skip 'dis shit, so we could just fuck 'till we can't no mo?" He mumbled in my ear, biting my earlobe.

I shook my head. " Nope, but we'll see later, if everything tonight goes well."

" 'Ight."

" Come on love birds , we gotta get going." Davontae said.

" Okay." After saying our goodbyes, we left.

" Ray?!" I yelled.

He walked into my room. " Yeah."

" You gon' do it tonight? "

He nodded. " Yeah I'm why? You don't want me to?"

I shook my head. " No, you can do it... so how are you gonna do it?" I sat down on my bed.

" Whenever, probably when prom over with or when I get them alone or some. I don't know yet."

" Oh, okay." I nodded. " Ray, please don't get caught."

" I won't Hailey."

" Okay, just saying. ONLY  Daejah and August. "

He nodded. " 'Ight not Davontae and Ariana."

" Yeah."

" How many times, you want me to?"

I shrugged. " I don't know, enough."

" Okay b-"

" Hailey, Reese is downstairs." Tatiyanna my sister came into the room.

Ray helped me up. " Thank you.... okay Tatiyanna ."I smiled.

" You look pretty." She commented.

" Thank you. "

" Welcome." I heard Reese voice from downstairs . I grabbed my purse. " Don't forget."

" I won't ."

I swayed slowly to the music that is playing. I felt someone grab my hand. I looked up to see Ariana .

" Come dance with me." I nodded. " Daejah don't steal my date." Davontae yelled.

" Ya' to Ariana."

We bothed laughed as we made our way to the dance floor. " Did you like your food?"

I nodded, smiling. " Yes girl, that's shit was good as hell, I was eating off of August plate when I got done with mine."

" I saw." She laughed.

" He didn't mind, cause I always share my food with with skinney ass."

" True."

We went to the Japanese Grill, which cooked in front of us. It was fun. Our server/cooker was throwing shrimp at Davontae and August and suprisely they were catching it with there mouths.

Even though Davontae and I are alegic to shrimp, we took our medicine before hand. So we would be fine.

" Daejah what's wrong?"

" Nothing."

" Nah girl, what's wrong you keep tryna bite your nails." I sighed as I put my hands to my side.

" Tell me what's wrong. Something is on your mind....... is it cause? "

I shook my head. " No, I don't know Ariana, I just gotta bad vibe.... it's like something bad finna happen."

I looked around me then shrugged " Maybe it's just me being paranoid."

Ariana studied my face." Nah you got that feeling for a reason, what you think bout to happen?"

I shrugged." I don't know exactly, but like I said maybe it's me being me ."

She bite the corner of her bottom lip. " Yeah, I guess."

Pour it up came on by Rihanna.

" Oooo girl this my song. "

" I know it's. " I laughed.

Money make the world go round

I still got my money

Benz make your girl go down

I still got my money

Lot more where that came from

I still got my money

The look in yo eyes I know you want some

I still got my money

Money, money on my mind

Ariana twerked to beat.

" Stop all'lat Ariana, before I have to come over there." Davontae yelled, watching Ariana and I.

She pouted and stopped twerking.

" Ariana, what I tell you about that pouting?"

" Don't do it." She mumbled.

" Right, so stop."How he heard her, I don't even know.

I laughed. " Girl, he have you in check."

She smacked her lips. " Not like how August have you. He didn't even want yo' ass to show that lil' belly skin."

I stopped laughing, cause she was right. Both August and Davontae don't like other Niggas looking at us, or even want other nigga to look at us. They say.

" Come on girl, let's just enjoy Rih."

I nodded.  Ariana love Rihanna, ever since she can out to the United states from Barbados. Especially when Pon de replay became a hit.

If she ever met Rihanna, she'll die. If I say a lyric to one of Rihanna songs, she'll know exactly which song I'm singing or quoting from.

After dancing a while, Davontae and August joined us. Neither of them could dance which Ariana and I think is funny, plus they both are tall and don't have much fat on them so there both are just akward. But they low key just swayed and danced.

" 'Ight so since it's almost the end of prom, it's time to annouce the king and queen of prom 2012. I heard it was close."

Everyone cheered as the DJ announced the nominee's for king and queen.

" The king and queen of Prom 2012 is........ Ariana-Marie Williams and Davontae Robinson!"

Ariana looked up suprisely as she was eating some fries.

" Come on babe." Davontae grabbed her hand. They walked on the stage and put on there crowns.

" Thats my bestfriend, that's my bestfriend. " I yelled, twerking. I took out my phone and took pictures of them.

" Thank y'all for voting us as prom king and queen this year, it's a honor. " Davontae smiled. I shook my head at him. " We appreciate that."

Everyone cheered as the lights dimmed for there dance. Everyone walked of the dance floor as they made there way in the middle. I took a video of them dancing. After they took there dance, they kissed and walked towards me. Everyone cheered.

" Gon' 'head Davontae. "

" Black love, that's what I'm talking 'bout. "

" Y'all are to cute together."

" Davontae when you gon' be mine?" Some girl yelled.

" Back the fuck up bitch, he's mine. " Ariana said, getting close as possible to Davontae.

" Oh my lord." I mumbled laughing. I hugged Ariana, she hugged me back.

" I'm so happy for you."

" Thank you.... I didn't even know I was gon' win to be honest."

" Why? Your a queen Ariana." I fixed her crown.

" My mufuckin' queen too." Davontae kissed her temple.

She blushed. " You are one too."

" Shit, I already knew I was gon' win. I'm the sexiest nigga in this school. Every girl love me." Davontae smirked .

Ariana mugged him. " And I better be the only girl that can have you."

" Your the only one for me Ariana." They kissed.

" Oooo shitt did I miss when they announce tha' king and queen?"

I laughed at August. " Its okay babe but yeah... Ariana and Davontae won." I smiled.

" 'Ight brah I see ya'. Congrats Ariana. "

" Thank you." She smiled.

" Ariana come to the bathroom with me." I grabbed her hand and walked towards the bathroom

" Dang, daejah." We walked into the bathroom.

" Why you wanted me to come with you?"

" 'Cause I didn't want to go by myself." I said in a duh tone. I did my business a walked out of the bathroom.

" I don't know why my brother picked the biggest hoe in this school to bring to prom with."

" At of all people bruh." I shook my head. " I'm not trying to be on no hating shit either."

" Nah, I know you not... we're asking the same question and we want a anwser."

" Yeah I mean, if he's happy with Hailey then I guess you gon' end up with a niece or nephew. " I smiled.

Her face scrunched up." Nooo." She shook her head

" I'm only looking forward to one right now." She glared at my stomach then back up at up at, smiling.

I shook my head, groaning. " Ariana."

" I'm tho', so when you go tell him?"

I shrugged. " I don't know." I mumbled. " Just not here tho'. I might just take him on a walk or some, bring up March 30 talk about what happened and just tell him."

" Yeah that would be a good idea, 'cause you don't want people ease dropping on y'all conversation."

" Right." I agreed. We walked back into the gym, to our tables.

" Aug' you wanna go for a walk?"

" Yeah baybeh." He nodded.

" We'll be back."

" Ight y'all be safe."

" We will." I grabbed August hand. Then walked out of the building.

" Ya' have fun tanigh'?"

Daejah nodded. " Yeah, exspecally when you and Davontae was catching the shrimp with y'all mouths."

I smirked. " Dats what ya' gon' do when I nut tanigh', catching my shit witcha' mouth."

She shook her head. " No I'm not."

" We'll see 'bout 'dat baybeh." I licked my lips, as I looked at Daejah.

" August."

" Yeah."

" You gotta talent."

" Oh with ma' dick and mouth? Yeah I been knew that, by the way you be acting when I put it to use." I smirked.

She blushed. " No not that.... I'm talking about your singing."

" Thank ya'." I smiled.

" No problem.... you should really see where it takes you."

" I'll.... that's why I'm ouchea tryna make a way to get out of hea'. Ya' know what I mean? "

She nodded. "Of course, every one wants the same thing. That's what Davontae tryna do with his basketball."

" Yeah." It got real silent for a minute. It wasn't like a awkward silence. Just a comfortable silence.

" Baby I gotta talk to you about something." She messed with her nails, sighing.

" Whatcha gotta tell meh?"

" I um I -"

We heard a car come down the street, fast. We bothed turned around. I touched around on my waist area, knowing exactly what was finna happen.

" Fuck." I yelled, frustrated. I knew I should've bought my gun with me tonight. Something told me to bring it but I decided against it.

" What's wrong?" Before I could react, they rolled down there windows.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

" Baybeh !" I yelled as I looked at Daejah.

I looked at the car, getting a good look before turning to Daejah.

" Shit." I catched Daejah, be fore she fell completely to the ground.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

I groaned, but ignore the pain that was coming from my back an shoulder. I felt blood all over my hands and pants.

" Baybeh please, ya' gotta keep ya' eyes open."

I took out my phone and called 911. " 911, what's your emergency? " The operator said.

" I need some ambulances. Ugh 2.... sum body shot us."

" Sir are you okay?"

" Nah, I'm not okay, what type of question was 'dat, didn't I just tell ya' ass I was shot."

I looked down at Daejah. I shook my head, tears forming. " Ma guhfriend she ai-nt man. she ain't doin' good."

" Sir there's polices and ambulances on the way, please say on your phone. Is your girlfriend shot too?"

" Yeah bruh." I sniffed.

Her eyes began to flutter then they rolled to the back of her head. " Shit baybeh, don't leave meh yet, I can't lose ya', I can't" I applied more pressure to her wombs.

" Whats wrong with her?"

I didn't respond back . All I know is that's Daejah is probably tha' next person, I'll lose in less than 2 years. I don't even know, if I'll be able to keep going if I lose her.

If I lose somebody else, imma need somebody help.
