On My Knees For A Santo | OMB

Chapter Twelve

Monse and Ruby glared at Ceaser.

Me:Is olivia inside

Ruby:uh-uuh yeah yeah she's already at the alter

Me:Good

Afterwards
After the ceremony I saw Monse and Ruby going over to Ruby. I followed.

Ruby:It was...a nice ceremony

They were speaking lightly as if they hadnt know Ceaser their whole life.

Ceaser:Yea

Monse:You didnt kill him

Ruby:Monse

Me:guys can you n-

Ceaser: He's not dead

My heart dropped

Ceaser:But he's gone

Me:Oh my god

I walked outside and leaning against the brick wall.

Ceaser:Hey whats wrong

He said standing infront of me

Me:whats wrong?! Are you serious, Latrelle is still alive

I said lowly so people wouldn't hear.

Ceaser:No but he's gone

Me:For all we know he went back to his big homie and told him everything and now their planning a war

Ceaser:I couldn't do it

Me:When you said you did something wrong I thought you meant killing Laterelle not letting him go

Ceaser:Would you do it?

Me:Yes, in a heartbeat if it meant keeping mí familía safe

Ceaser:Well I couldn't today is about Olivia not this okay so lets worry about that

We got to the house and the sun was set. The party started and the music was playing and everyone was having a good time then it came for the dance. First to dance was Ruby and Olivia. Since they were now a thing as of 20 minutes ago. She was so beautiful, her dress was amazing and Ruby and Olivia never looked happier. Then Monse and Ceaser danced and I felt like all in the world was once again aligned. They also looked extremely happy. After they finished then everyone started dancing and mingling. We were all messing around while dancing.

Ruby:Oh look at that Pimp stick

Me:*smiles* I wish jamal was here

Monse:Me too Im gonna apologize

Olivia:You will

Ruby:but right now you gotta dance

We were all for once at the same time happy as could be.

Monse:Then this ones for jamal

Us:for jamal!

We danced and her quince was so fun. Then there were 3 gunshots.

Bang Bang Bang

Everyone screamed, most ran and or hit the ground. I saw Olivia and Ruby bleeding but my vision was fading I looked down and I was bleeding. I heard my parents yelling mine and Ruby's name but their voices faded.

1 Week later
We got home for the first time in a week. Ruby and I missed Olivia's memorial cause we werent allowed to leave the hospital.

Dad:Come on guys

I opened the door of the car and got out. We went inside and it was New Year's eve. I showered and put on the outfit below
