Melissa's POV:

* The motherfuckin' drama continues *

My heart beats faster as I see Justin pointing his gun at my boss.

Yep, after this, I'm definitely fired.

Well, that's if I have a boss...

"What the hell? What happened?," I ask Justin.

"He's talking bullshit," Justin snaps, his muscles tense, his eyes narrowed at Alexander.

"About?"

"I was just talking about gangs. How much I depise them, and your husband randomly pulls a gun out on me," my boss explains to me.

I sigh.

Fuck.

"Does he even have a license for that gun?," he asks me.

"Yes," I quickly reply.

Honestly, I don't think he does.

Justin really needs to learn how to deal with his anger.

"Justin, put the gun down babe."

"Fuck no. I'm ready to shoot this motherfucker," he replies rudely.

"He's just upset Mr. Smith. His mother was killed by a gang member when he was sixteen, so bringing up things about gangs upset him."

That's partially true.

At this point, I'm just trying to save Justin's ass.

"Oh, I'm sorry Justin. I didn't know," he apologizes.

I examine Justin, seeing him beyond pissed. He continues to clutch his gun tight, his finger on the trigger.

I walk to him and wrap my arms around him before kissing along his jawline.

"Don't do it. You're better than that," I mumble against his cheek.

He shakes his head no, trying to ignore me.

I lean up and kiss his cheek.

"C'mon babe. Don't do it."

It takes him a few seconds until he finally puts the gun down and groans, my boss letting out a breath of relief.

Justin wraps his arm around me, pulling me into his chest, kissing my temple.

"It was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you for dinner."

Mr. Smith nods before we both exit the house, heading back home.

* Home *

We both walk inside the house, Justin heading upstairs.

I trail behind him, us both ignoring Connor and Val in the living room with Bella.

We head into the bedroom and I close the door behind us, leaning against it having my arms crossed against my chest.

"So, what the hell really happened Justin?"

"He was talking shit, like I said before. He thinks he knows so much about the fuckin' gang life."

He plops down of the bed.

"He's so ignorant. He doesn't know anything about the gang life Melissa. I lost my amazing mother because of my choice of joining the gang. Once you're in, there's no way out. Does he think that we all wanted this? That we all didn't want to leave once we realized shit was real?"

I make my way towards him as he continues.

"After my mom was killed, I wanted to leave. But, Connor wouldn't let me because I couldn't. So many people were after me. They were out to get me. Speaking about gangs out of ignorance pisses me off. It's like an insult to me because the gang life has become a part of me. The gang life is real. If killing people is what I have to do to prove my point, I'm gonna continue to do it."

I sigh and sit on his lap.

"Justin, I don't want you to kill anyone unless needed. It shouldn't become a habit for you."

"It's already has Melissa," he corrects.

I lift his chin, pecking his lips.

"Just try. Okay?"

He groans.

"Okay baby girl."

I peck his lips again.

"Next time, he's dead. I'm shooting him without hesitation," he threatens.

"Justin. You agreed to-"

"I know baby girl. I'm trying."

"Try harder."

He laces our fingers together before giving me a small smile.

"I promise to try harder baby."
