De'Mario's POV:

Where the hell did she go? That woman has lost her damn mind. I walked to the back door and stepped out to the pool area where I seen something dripping from the roof. I looked down to see that it was blood. Before I knew it, I heard some shuffling and something heavy dropped on my damn neck. I fell with what turned out to be Shawny and she groaned at what sounded like the braking of her arm. Suddenly, a part of me clicked when I seen where the blood was coming from. I picked her up bridal style and rushed her to my car. She's bleeding a lot and my heart is beating fast as fuck. I threw her in the back seat before jumping in the front seat and sped through traffic trying to make it to the ER. I feel so fucking bad now. I don't know what makes me do the stupid shit I do.

The Next Morning...

Sitting up in the chair next to the hospital bed, I check my watch. It's been over 16 hours since I brought Shawny to the hospital last night, and she still won't wake up. My phone been blowing up since I was in the waiting room, I'm not finna answer nobody cause I'm not in the mood to face any criticism right now. I'm fully aware of what I did wrong and I feel horrible as fuck because of it. But ain't no turning back from it and I need to let Shawny know how sorry I am. I grab her left hand and held it in mine as I caressed it with my thumb. Thoughts bounces through my head as I continue to regret drinking yesterday. Everytime I pick up a bottle, I end up hurting her. What am I going to do?

Nicole: "I knew she was here." She said causing me to shoot my head back. My eyes met with Ray and Jr who glared at me as they clenched their jaws.

Ray: "Come out here, lemme talk to you, Kid." he demanded. Just when I was about to walk into my death, I felt a tug at my hand and turned to look at Shawny waking up. She snatched her arm away from me and sighed while shaking her head.

Shawny: "Why didn't you let me die?" She looked at the ceiling. "How's my baby?"

Me: "It's fine." I assured her.

Lala: "It's?" She frowned at me. "Dee, you're pregnant? & You called your child a fucking it?"

Shawny: "Sis, stop. Don't worry about what this thing is right here." She pointed at be but never, I mean not once did she look at me.

Me: "Baby, Can-"

Shawny: "Baby?" She looked at me for the first time with tears in her eyes that broke just about everyone's hearts in this room. Her bruised up neck only made it worse. She reached to her broken arm to pull her wedding ring off and set it next to her on the mattress. "I'm not your wife. Go marry that bitch Raquel. You're welcome. Now, get the fuck outta my face before I hurt you for hurting me." She turned over on her side, laying on her broken arm without a problem. She didn't move, didn't cried, just sat there and didn't say a word. "Everyone, will you please leave me alone?" She said with an hoarse voice.

Me: "Can yah give me a minute with her? I just need a few minutes." I begged trying to hold all my emotions in. I fucked up, and I fucked up bad. I might not be able to fix this, this time. Everybody left just like I asked. I heard her sigh and then sniffle as she laid in silence. I'm stuck. "Babygirl, I'm terribly sorry for what happened last night. I would never-"

Shawny: "I can see through your lies just like you can see through me. You know I'm vulnerable right now, you know there's a part of me that wants to be with you for the rest of my life no matter how bad you fucked up. You know me inside out and can trick me to believe that I'm the one you're in love with. I know this, because I know you. You're all I know. You're all I've ever known. But that's over now, D. If I take you back, you'll just continue cheating on me and living your double life like I'm blind. I see the way you look at her. I see the way she looks at you. I remember when we used to look at each other that way, but now I have watch you look at her. My love for you has not left my heart but I'm not in love with you anymore. I refuse to sit here and lie to you by saying you deserve to see your child once I have him or her. You can keep the twins, I can't stress over them right now. As much as it hurts me to say that about my own children, I'm nothing to them. We just shared the same blood. So please, just leave right now. I honestly never in my life want to see you ever again. Take that ring, take this necklace, and go." She set the necklace behind her and continue to lay there in pure silence while staring at out the window.

Me: "Regardless of what happened between us, I want you to know that I love you, more than anything in the world." I replied.

Shawny: "I believed that, once upon a time." She mumbled. "Love makes you so damn stupid... It'll even make you cheat on your wife." She added to show how bad I hurt her. At this moment, I know she's not going to change her mind. I just grabbed the ring and the necklace and left the hospital room running into the crowd of her family. Ain't this some shit?

De'Maria's POV:

Have you ever wondered what makes a person do what they do? Have you ever took the time out of your day of using common sense to try and understand how a person can deny a baby that they made with a person together? Have you even attempted to place pieces together that didn't make no god damn sense at all? I have never, NEVER in my life hated my Dad so much. I never thought that I will be sitting up all hours of the night crying my eyes out, while cleaning blood out of concrete, tile, and carpet. Not only did I have to calm my brother and sister down after watching their Dad Incredible Hulk choke the shit out of their mom but I had to try and get ahold of somebody who cared for Shawny enough to go find where ever she is or if my Dad had taken her anywhere. The last I saw her, she promised me she wouldn't do anything stupid and I'm hoping my Dad didn't do anything to her. All I have is these blood stains. Every last phone call to my dad and Shawny was ignored. Everyone I trust has been looking for them two all over. I'm so scared for what the truth may be that I haven't slept.

I'm so glad I have Terrence in my life because he came over last night and he held me as I cried. He wiped every tear from my eyes and he helped me scrub the random blood that he investigated came from the roof. I wouldn't have ever imagined that I will be in the position that I'm in right now. Now, I'm sitting on the couch laying my head on Tee's lap as he runs his fingers in my hair.

Tee: "Ria, You need to get away. You have been stressing your whole life and it's only gone get worse from here. I'd hate to see that happen." He said.

Me: "I can't run away from my problems. I'm not going to be like my father. I'll just do what I have to do to get where I have to go. I'm fine with whatever life throws at me as long as I have you here by my side every step of the way. But if you can't do that, I'd appreciate it if you tell me now." I replied. It was silent for a moment. But it was a peaceful silence. He sighed and stopped running his fingers through my hair causing me to look up at him. He leaned down and his lips met mine. His kisses sent chills up my spine and I felt kind of a spark. The moment he pulled away, it felt like half of my soul left with him and vice versa. I blushed and gazed into his eyes as he attempted to read my mined trough mine.

Tee: "Will you allow me to relieve you from that stress one day?" He asked respectfully.

Me: "Maybe on our honeymoon in like 20 years." I giggled.

Tee: "How about in 5 years?" He asked seriously that wiped the smirk off my face. "Why should I wait that long when I know who I want?" His comment caused me to smile wide. These are the things every girl wishes for.

Devin's POV:

I speed walk down the hallways of the hospital looking for D bitch ass after hearing the news of Shawny being in the hospital for what ever reason. Jr said she has bruises all over her neck and she had broken her right arm. Shit don't just happen like that in everyday life. You can't even count that as a fucking accident. I caught a glimpse of RJ and everyone else and instantly went off.

Me: "Where the fuck is he?" I tried pushing through everyone holding me back.

RJ: "Yo, chill. Ray already took care of him." He said.

Me: "That mothafucka needs to be in the damn hospital!" I said in rage.

Nicole: "Calm down, son." She said rubbing my back. "Go on in there and talk to her. She needs our support right now. She's on suicide watch."

I walked in the room and shit the door behind me. Everything hit me at once when I seen the damage for myself. She doesn't even look the same anymore. What have this nigga been doing to her? She look like she's really sick. The moment she looked at me, I nearly cried.

Me: "Hey Nilla" I smiled faintly as I sat next to her on the bed and held her hand. I kissed her knuckles that caused her to smile.

Shawny: "Hi, Dev." She looked down as her smile faded. I lifted her chin with my index finger and made her look me in the eyes.

Me: "No matter what happened between us, you and D, or anyone else. I got chu, because you had me when I needed you, Sis. We family, and we gone treat each other like it. We may fall out sometimes but that's life. I don't ever want you to think that you're alone. I know you probably thought I felt a certain way towards you when you got back but that isn't true. I really just couldn't believe what to think at that point and I'm sorry if I made you feel a certain way. Everyone who's here to see you, cares. We love you and no matter what you think, we got you for life." I preached to her as she teared up and smiled reaching for a hug. She cried on my shoulder for about five minutes before she asked me to join her in bed and vented to me about literally everything she's been feeling.

Raquel's POV:

Me: "D, I'm pregnant." I announced into the mirror. After seeing De'Shawn at the clinic yesterday and the incident at the house last night, I felt the need to tell D what I've been meaning to tell him. I wonder what he will say. I wonder what he'll do. I hope he's happy because I am but if he isn't, I won't know what to do. But he's married. There's not much I can do with a married man, especially if his wife doesn't know about the fact that her husband has slept with another woman before.

D: "Wassup babygirl." He said startling me as he walked into the front door of the condo he bought me. He kicked off his shoes and took off his bloody shirt and pants.

Me: "What happened?" I panicked.

D: "Don't worry about that, throw these in the trash, I'm finna get in the shower." He said walking into the bed room.

After he got out of the shower and gotten dressed into new clothes, he sat at the table where I had a meal waiting for him. I want him to be satisfied when I tell him the news that may change our relationship for better or worse. I cleaned the kitchen as he ate his food in peace. I've learned whenever he's quiet while he's eating, don't talk to him. He will eventually talk to you once he's done eating.

Me: "I got something to tell you when you're done eating." I warned him while he was finishing his food. He nodded and continues to eat. Once he finished, I grabbed his plate and cleaned it for him.

D: "What is it that you need to tell me?"He asked. My heart dropped as I dried his dishes and set in the cabinet. This is the moment that I've been waiting for. I took a deep breath and turned around looking at him in his eyes to see his full reaction.

Me: "Umm.. well.. I'm pregnant." I sighed. He stared into space for a while and finally stood up slowly. He walked towards me and kissed my forehead, nose, and lips sweetly. I blushed and felt so relieved.

D: "I will never leave your side, don't worry about a thing, babygirl. I got chu." He smiles and kissed me passionately. I think I'm falling in love.
