Nazareth Pov
Airforce Base Villa Vista Tuesday 9:00 am
Just... man listen
"The fuck you mean I have a chance to be dishonorably discharged?" I stood up
"You shot him on purpose?" The chief of staff said
This nigga is over the entire airforce.
"First off it was an accident I was cleaning my gun and he bumped it walking past. Secondly he cut my shute string, I ....I FUCKING FELL FROM TWENTY THOUSAND FEET OUT OF THE AIR" I shouted at him and everyone else
"He is disabled now"
"He got knee surgery hes fucking fine, I on the other hand could have been killed. You got to be kidding me?" I asked him
"I am truly disappointed with the way you are speaking, I wanted to move you up in ranks making you an captian...."
"I would have been dead? Does no one understand that shit? Or is his life worth more than mines because that's what I hear?" I stated
"You are just making things worse Lieutenant Vassos" general Johnson stated
"I'm truly confused, I never would have thought this would be happening to me. I can not believe this shit" I shook my head
"Maybe you should take some time..." i cut the cheif off
"I'm not taking no time off, I'll be dishonorably discharged then. You know how many fucking times, i done been shot here, jumped off plans for a fucking career for you mother fuckers because i wanted to show yall that a woman was able to do that shit, and look at this taking up for the man like always. Such a fucking disgusting thing to do"
"Lieutenant it is not that case at all, you were our first women pararesuemen...."
"I dont want to hear non of that shit. The most disrespected, unprotected, neglected person in America is black women. Every man in his room is black and should damn sure have my back aganist this white man"
"Keith is..."
"Keith is white and mexican hes White. You can have this gun" I slammed it on the table
"Shoes is all yours, just like all these badges and pins" I put my uniform jacket on the table "oh this fucking tie I hate wearing, and this hat" I tossed it to them
"This shirt is itchy as fuck" I took it off and sat it on the table as they just looked at me
"Lieu...." the general said but I cut him off
"Wait these pants are too damn tight" I sat them on the desk
I didnt even realize I was standing there in my pink Calvin Klein shorts and my pink Calvin klein bra. Yeah I wear bras, and be sexy too
"Lieutenant Vassos" the cheif said
"Bye" I went to walk off, I realized I was naked
I slowly turned around and grabbed the pants and shirt. I put them on as they all just looked away.
"I'll umm just return these when I get home. Dont expect it to be dry cleaned either" I stated and walked out with no shoes
I was beyond pissed off, I got basically fired from the airforce. So why not tell these mother fuckers how I feel in the process.
Black women and girls get treated like shit from birth by America, we dont have a choice, but some how we do whatever they ask, it's still not good enough for them. I'm greek, but I'm still fucking black.
I got in my car and went the fuck home.
Home 11:37 am
I sat outside in my car for about twenty minutes. Thinking of how, I was going to tell Mercury, shell probably be happy.
But whatever it dont really matter, I should quit the hospital also.
Ring ring
"What Mika?"
"Yo what the fuck happened?" She asked as I turned the car off
"I got dishonorably discharged so I went the fuck off on all of they asses"
"Man what the fuck Nazareth. You could have fought aganist it"
"Its not worth it at fucking all, like they did me wrong. So he got shot, that's it. He deliberately tried to take my life away from me. Which one was worse?" I asked
"You know im on your side, maybe I could talk to them?" She asked
"Dont, I dont want shit else to do with them period, I'm waking in the house I'm gone call you back"
"Okay, dont forget right?" She hung up
"Tada" Mercury opened with door holding a cake
"Can you just move?" I asked
"I'm sorry" she said and moved
I'm horny and its fucking pissing me off, I had a terrible fucking meeting, this nigga Keith I want to ring is neck from all the blood he has in it.
"I made a cake, I been up since you le...."
"Good for you?" I asked
"I guess, where are your shoes?" She asked
"Does it fucking matter?" I snapped knocking the cake out of her hands and on to the floor, making her flench
"Sorry" she said backing up and grabbing the kitchen towel
"I made you some lunch?" She said wiping it up
"Can we fuck?" I asked
"I dont want to" she said
"We had a deal actually so?" I said
"Naz I dont want too" she replied
"Okay that's cool" I said walking away into the room
I'm so fucking frustrated, and I'm getting pissed more by the second. I just went in the room just thinking to myself. How fucked up shit has been going since I started dealing with her.
I didnt have these fucking problems at all, until Mercury came alone.
"We can have sex its fine" she said walking in the room
"No just leave me alone right now. I'm fine"
"Naz what's wrong?" She stood infront of me
"Nothing just leave me alone" I replied
"Can you talk to me? I want to make sure your okay...." I jumped up in her face
Grabbing her and shook her
"Leave me the fuck alone" I snapped holding on to her shoulders scaring the piss out of her
She grabbed her stomach and looked down and she was so scared she did pee.
"Just lea...." I put my hands up and she clenched up again as if I was about to hit her
"Sorry, I'll clean it up" she said and walked to the bathroom
"I'll get it...."
"No it's fine I can clean it myself" she said
"Mercury just shower, I'll clean it it dont matter" i walked after her
"I did it so, I'll just clean it up okay. There is lunch and everything in the kitchen, if your umm hungry. I was kinda of tired and every thing so I just made you a sandwich and the soup you had yesterday" she was wiping the carpet and crying
"Look merc..." she moved away from me as I bent down to her face
"Merc?" I said as she wiped her face
"I'm okay, just tired" she lied
"Mercury I wasnt trying to hurt you. You know that?" I asked
"Can I go shower now?" She asked
"Why you asking me that?" She didnt say nothing just looked at me
"If you was going to shower I can wait?" She asked
"What is wrong with you?" I asked
"I dont want to upset you anymore, I'll go run you some bath water" she tried to get up
"Let me help..."
"No please dont touch me" she said moving her hands away from me
"Mercury do not do that. I was not going to hurt.." she cut me off
"I can do it. I'm going, itll will be ready in a few" she said and closed the bathroom door
What the fuck, this is so bad. I didnt mean to shake her like that. I was frustrated with everything right now personal and professional. Everything was going bad right now, and I dont know how to fix it at all.
My mother would be disappointed if she knew what I did. Mercury been through enough bullshit, she dont need no more. Especially from me, that's my baby.
11:27 pm
She wouldn't eat dinner, until after I ate, she wouldn't sit on the couch, she sat on the floor. She got in bed after I did, I tried to make her get in the bed but she wouldn't until i did.
She said it's better that why. I did this, she right back to what she was use to in the abusive relationship with Saqui. Like i dont want her there, at all. I dont want to make her feel like we in that relationship.
Me - I messed up ly
Ly - who you fucked? Lol
Me - I shook Mercury, and she just isnt the same now
Ly - as in what?
Ly - like you put your hands on her?
Me - yes, but it wasnt like that. Like I didnt try too at all.

He started to call so I looked over at Mercury who was just laying there with her pregnancy pillow looking at the headboard.
"Hello?" I said closing the bathroom door
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" I snapped
"I didnt mean to Lyric I promise I didnt. I was just angry bec...."
"Sis I dont matter why you was mad, you physically put your hands on her and she is fucking five months pregnant with your triplets. She is your wife not some chick who made you mad"
"Lyric I know I was wrong, but it's like she wont even look at me"
"She was in a bad abusive relationship for three years with a nigga to this day wont let her be. Shes fucking scared nigga, what you think?" He stated
"Lyric I didnt mean to do nothing to her. I was dishonorably discharged from the airforce because of Keith, like I am horny, this shit with Janell and her friend, the this shit with Saqui is, I never had to deal with jone of this shit unti..."
"Until what? Sis? Janell been fucking annoying, Keith never liked you because Kaley wanted you but you didnt pay her no fucking mind, Saqui ain't shit. And you being horny. We all been told your ads to get fucking help. You being frustrated and shaking her is a big fucking deal. Yiu need to fucking fix it before its seriously too late"
"I dont know what to do? Ly I really dont"
"Man, dont cry sis. It's gone be alright, ya'll both are going through alot. But you cant ever put your hands on her sis" he said
"Man, I know, I wouldn't dare hurt her or harm her"
"I know sis, but you have to do better and make it right. Mercury really loves you, hell shes carrying three babies for you both that's a lot of love" he joked
"Yeah I know" I smiled and wiped my eyes with a napkin
"Talk to her, even if she sleep just talk to her" he stated
"I will, thanks for the advice"
"No problem, I love you sis call me in the morning"
"Love you too" I said and hung up
"Mom I am sorry" I said looking at her ashes that Merc put in a necklace for me
I walked back, out of the bathroom and Mercury was still just laying there. This time she was facing her belly on the edge of the bed with the pillow around it, she just looked right through me it felt like.
"I'm sorry, there wasnt a reason at all for me to do that, no matter how mad I was at today"
"Its okay, I wont make chocolate cake no more" she smiled
"It wasnt you or the cake it was me. I was pissed off at the meeting and took it out on you. I was wrong, I said I would never hurt you and then I did"
"You wanna punch me?" I asked
She just looked at me, and I knew I had lost Mercury.
Mercury'Gaia Pov
Wednesday 12:12 am
I knew it was bound to happen, I should have just had sex with her, and everything would have be fine. I should have just let her and I wouldn't have mad her even madder.
Then she was mad about what happened at her Airforce meeting and I didnt make it no better. I made her cake, which for what. I knew I would fuck up eventually and this would happen to me. It always does, I wish I wasnt pregnant now. Because I don't want nothing to happen to them.
I can take a few punches, whatever it maybe but babies, unborn babies they can't. No, I dont trust her at all and I'm scared.
I opened my eyes and Naz is just looking at me with I dont know what is all over her but its pink and some blue.
"Sorry, I overslept I'll make you some breakfast" I sat up
"I'm okay, I'm not hungry. I want to show you something" she held out her hand and I closed my eyes
I felt the bed dip, and I opened my eyes and shes just sitting next to me, with her hand open and the same pink and blue stuff is on her hands
Ring ring
"Miya been ing, so talk to her and I'll be right back" she said and gave me my phone
I took it and watched her walk out of the room.
"Hello?"
"Hey baby mama with the clip" she sung
"Hey"
"Aww what's wrong?" She asked
"Nothing, I'm good" I lied
"No you sound so sad. What are you worried about?"
"Nothing really, I'm okay I just woke up" I stood up
"You want me to come over there?"
"No really Miya I'm fine"
"Okay, well we still going to dance practice later, I wanna see how you guys been doing"
"Yes, I'll be there at like four thirty"
"Okay see you later" she said and hung up
I sat my phone down and went into the bathroom to see why my arms were sore. I took my shirt off and her hand prints were on them, like a bruise. I'm brown skin and it still showed up, she grabbed me and shook my that hard.
I was truly terrified and I peed on myself. I was scared.
I put my shirt back on and when I came out the bathroom Naz was waiting.
"Are you ready?" She smiled
"Sure" I said
"Follow me" she grabbed my hand, but gently
"So I know that when the babies get here they all are going to sleep in our room for the first couple of months. But they still have their own bedrooms. So I stayed up all night going bck and forth to Walmart, and this home store, that I didnt even know was twenty four hours but is expensive as hell" she laughed as we stood at one of the room doors that had an s on it
She opened the door and it was a girl nursery room.
"For Sophia, Yes I did this all myself. I been up all night. I even painted two of the walls" she smiled as I stood at the door looking around
"Okay, okay next" she held my hand as we walked to the next room down the hall
"Okay this one took some planning, and painting but I got it done" she opened the door
"I hope it's okay if we can call one of the boys Silas? The wall paint is still kind of wet. Theres that grey purse you was looking for I put it there because I didnt want to wake you"
"I dont really like the lights up there, but they cake with the house" she talked
"Okay okay, now, last one then you can tell me how you like them" we walked to the last room
"Tada" she smiled and opened the door
"I had to make them all different, but I decied tomorrow I'm going to paint one of Sians walls green like I did the closet" she said
"So, I did do this all last night and this morning, I am tired as hell" she smiled
"But we have Sophia, Silas, and Sian" she smiled at me
"So what you think of the rooms and names? I mean we can change anything of the rooms and names if you want to?" She asked
"I want to leave" I said
"Yeah I'm kind of hungry also" she said and I let her hand go
"I want to leave you" i said and she just looked at me
I cant do this again, I wanted to cry but I couldn't.
"I understand, I honestly do. You can stay here I'll grab some clothes. I hope you liked the rooms" she said
"I am sorry, I never meant to hurt you Mercury" she said and walked back towards our room
I went and just sat in the livingroom on the floor, looked in the direction of our room. She did it once, how I know she wont do it again. Should I take that chance like I did with Saqui? Look how that turned out.
I love her alot, I really do. But I dont want to go through that at all. I needed to be stronger this time.
She walked out with her luggage and her airforce bag. She put her shoes on at the door, grabbed her keys.
"I apologize and I love you Mercury" she said before closing the front door
I just started balling my eyes out at this point. I didnt know what else to do. I just sat here crying because I lost her.
University LV Dance Room
Two Weeks Later Friday 7:27 pm
It's been a couple weeks, since she left. I havent spoken to her at all. I logged out of social media just to breath a little bit more and relax my emotions.
She hasn't called me and I went to call her but I didnt.
"Look at you teach" they said as I walked in
"Gey guys" I smiled
"Blue and Parker and in your office" Sara said
"Lord okay. Well you guys did enough today you can go gome
"Finally" they said and started to pack up
"What's going on?" I asked
"Well Blue dont eant to leave" Parker added
"Why are you here?"
"Because I want to get back on the team, i would try out again and every thing" she said
"Fine try out tomorrow at four pm here, now just leave" I stated
"Wow, thanks" she smiled and grabbed her bag
"Excuse me" She said as she left making me and Parker look to the door and it was Saqui
"What?" I said
"Just came to see how you were doing?" He asked
"Please just leave me alone Saqui go home to your girl" I said
"Larissa that's not my bitch, I'm not sure why yall keep saying that"
"You want me to call security?" Parker asked
"To do what?" He asked her smiling
"You need to leave Saqui" I said
"Fine but, remember what I keep saying" he said
This is what he have been doing, popping up everywhere I am, no matter where the hell I am. He shows the hell up, then his little girlfriend will start inboxing me talking shit about him and fighting me. Same ole shit.
Miya House 9:58 pm
She will not leave me alone with this baby shower shit at all. I already told her that i absolutely do not want one and she wont let it be. Shes planning shit and telling me to just be there. I dont want to be there at all.
"Miya stop it already"
"Nope"
"Fucking fine, okay when i hit seven months in a month in a half you can have the baby shower"
"Can Naz come?" She asked
"She can do whatever she pleases, did you cook"
"Yes, you getting bigger by the day" she laughed
"Whatever" I said
"Its true, I talked to Naz last night. Shes not okay" she said
"You mila and raven have to stop" I said
"Please, well talk when we do" I said
"You know that's not the person Naz it at all, dont play with me Mercury. You know damn well who naz it. Shes not going around beating your ass. Be realistic" she said
"I didnt say she was, you wasnt there you didnt fucking see her face and how mad she was. I showed you the bruises on me. I love her I do, but just let me have some time" I stated
"Whaever have all the time you need, you not the only one stressed though okay" she rubbed my back
"Yes, I know. Why didnt she just tell me what happened?" I asked
"I dont know, I truly do not know" Miya said
"God my back hurts so bad" i leaned over the couch
"Its gone be alright. You and them babies and Nazareth" she said
"Yeah"
I miss her so fucking much, it unbelievable. Her voice, waking up next to her and smelling her breath. Which always smell like apples when she woke up.
Rubbing on her skin until I went to sleep. Her talking me and I just sat there listen to her all the time. I truly missed her, I never new how much as I miss Naz.
Home 11:37
I was about to get in the shower when o couldn't even take my bra off. I couldn't ever reach behind myself to take my bra off, yes I'm big.
"Thank you for coming overe here" i stated
"Your welcome " Ly said
"What's up what did you need?" He asked
"I can't get my bra off and Miya is fine with Asia and Mika is at work" I said
"Help you like take it off,"
"Please I want to take it off and shower and go to bed"
"Okay just turn around, and dont tell no one Merc" I laughed turning my back to him
"Yeah" I was cracking up
"Last week o took you to see a movie and you was crying and pissed off"
"It was a little sad
"We watch Aquaman" he started laughing as he took it off
"Yeah well, it was sad" I smiled
"If you say so" he handed me my bra
"Talk to Naz? I seen then names"
"Who told you them?" I asked
"I figured it out, she got them tattooed on her back shoulder Princess Sophia, Prince Silas, and Prince Sian it reads" he said
"Is she doing okay?"
"Call her and ask her how she is going, so being stubborn" he added
I was sitting on my bed wrapped in my towel crying about my wife and how we ended like this.
