Luca's POV
"You should hurry back...and oh tell miss Simi'ann her house burnt down", I say puffing out smoke in circles
"WHAT",aunt Jen hurls through the phone"how...is Ailee okay , Luca talk to me",
Smiling I hang up and cross my legs on aunt Jen's chair in our flower decorated valender and take long puffs from my cigar . It's been about 2 hours since Ailee have been crying herself to death seeing her house in ashes...she keeps punching the ground....keeps cursing me , I doubt she cares about our community elders who keep wincing and giving her judgemental looks every time she tells me she'll cut my balls off and shove them up my ass
That's what she gets for refusing me time and time again . And I'll kill her the next time she even thinks of defying me....it's already painfull enough that she rejected me years back and I have no intention on letting her hurt me again .
This time I'll court her....I'll make her choose me

Jeremy's POV
"I don't know man Lena says she wants me", I say talking with Alex on the phone
"What are gonna do about your black bitch then Jeremy ", he says gasping for air
Alex always hated Ailee and I think I'm finally getting it....she's headstrong and is always looking for trouble
"I don't even know why you dated her in the first place....look man....18th birthdays are one of the best prime ages to start living and from what I see...the bitch is holding you back", he says breathlessly
I pinch my area in the middle of my brows and shake my head . As much as I'd like to fight...he's right , ever since she and I started seeing each other I haven't been myself or had fun with her
Ofcourse she has that aura around her but I don't feel that anymore . It's like a life sentence having to live like that , but it's over now
I realised whatever love I had for her was not an enjoyable one once I kissed Lena last week....Lena was soft spoken , petite and adorable . And when I met Ailee at our spot at the park I just didn't feel her like I did the first time....I just felt dull
I looked over my shoulder and saw her (Lena) catwalking to me with her hands on her tiny waist . Shoulder length strawberry hair , blue green eyes and cherry lips....who wouldn't want that
"Dump the bitch...catch the chick . Its as simple as that . We'll talk later man...I'm still pumping this babeey", he sings the last part
I hang up....pocket my phone and turn to Lena . She side glances me and flashes a smile
"Jeremy so how are you holding up my offer", she flirts raising her hand to touch my chest
"What offer ", Ailee asks coming up behind her with her hands crossed on her chest , tilting her head slightly
She stands next to Lena , crosses her short arms across her chest and looks from me to Lena , her friend Reigna comes up behind her and stands next to me
"Oh....you didn't tell her we had sex", Lena says looking down at Ailee
Yeah...that didn't happen....but if it helps getting of Ailee , then so be it
Ailee raises her eye brows , pops her eyes wide open then looks me staright on the eye...as if asking me to say 'no' with just her eyes
I just shake my head and lower my eyes to the ground
"Ohhhh....ohhhh....I...you...you cheated on me", she stammered
"I tried....I really tried to love you Lee...I just couldn't keep lying myself", was all I managed to breath
"Okay , don't blame me for this", she concluded
A loud slap made me raise my eyes from the ground....Lena held her cheek in disbelief . She kept backing up when Ailee slowly and steadily walked right towards her
Before I could take action , Ailee was already on Lena's face . Her eyes darted all over Lena's terrified face and slightly parted her lips
"Ailee Simi'ann....remember my name Lena Carter", she whispered with a side grin
"AILEE....WHAT ARE YOU DOING....FUCK OFF", I screamed
She backed up from Lena , looked at my face turned and left....with Reigna running behind her clicking high heels on the concrete floor
I turned and cupped Lena's red tear stained face....
"She won't hurt you....I'll protect you", I whispered and kissed her aching cheek...slightly touching it with my nose , running it slowly until it reached her soft lips . I engrossed myself in our soft kiss.....see this is love....this is everything I ever wanted....Ailee can go fuck herself
