laughed then asked.

“I forgive you, but don’t try that shit again.”

“I love you.”

“I love you too. Too much if you ask.” Kiyan looked at Brielle.

“There’s no such thing of loving me too much because I love you more than anything.” Brielle said kissing Kiyan.

“Let’s get out of here before we go to jail.” Kiyan said grabbing Brielle’s hand.

“What do you mean?” Brielle asked confused.

“You don’t say shit like that and don’t think I’m not ready to rip your clothes off. But nawh forreal, let’s go eat. Dinner is on you since you the one fucking up these days,” Kiyan joked.

“What am I going to do with you?” Brielle laughed.

“Continue to love me. Forever.” Kiyan said.

“And a day.” Brielle said walking with the love of her life out of the hospital.

Chapter 34 (Two Weeks Later)

“Everything was me you stupid bitch. He belongs to me.” - Unknown

Brielle exited the doctor’s office. She was excited about getting her day started. She hadn't received any notes within the two weeks. She hoped they were done for good. Lucky for her Danielle was getting better and better everyday. Danielle had gone back to work but she still walked around with her arm cast because her arm was broken in more than one place. But she was back to her defensive sassy self.

Brielle had a lot to be thankful. She had Kiyan and their relationship blossomed more and more everyday. They had basically moved in with each other. It started out with her just staying at his house so that he could make sure she was safe at all times. But then it was her staying there because she genuinely loved being around him. He would take her to work when she didn't want to drive and pick her up. He made sure he was home at decent times at night. He was the perfect boyfriend. She had finally met his mother and they fell madly in love with each other. Aniya loved Brielle like she was the daughter she always wanted.

Brielle had finally met Kiyan's mysterious best friend Mercedes. Brielle laughed as she thought back to the day she had met Mercedes. Brielle was cleaning up around her house when she noticed a girl on her porch about to ring the bell. She just knew in her mind that the girl was coming to approach her about Kiyan. She had been through it so many times with Jaiden that it was almost expected that her happiness would soon end.

"Hey, can I help you?" Brielle asked the well-dressed woman on her porch. "Hey are you Brielle?" Mercedes asked.

"Last time I checked I was," Brielle said knowing trouble would soon to follow.

"Yeah he was definitely right. You are a defensive little one," Mercedes laughed.

"Who is he?"

"Kiyan. Can I come in?"

"I would let you come in but I don’t have a clue as to who you are."

"Oh my bad girl. I'm Mercedes. I'm Kiyan's best friend and the missing link to the clique." Mercedes introduced herself.

The rest is what you call history. Brielle and Mercedes kept in touch often since Mercedes had been house hunting so she could move back to New Jersey to be closer to her brothers. Brielle knew from the first time that Mercedes spoke about Kiyan, Cam, Ty, and Zo that she would do basically anything for them. She knew that Mercedes had good intentions and she wanted the best for them. After meeting Brielle and her friends, Mercedes knew that her brothers were in great hands. The ladies were genuine and loyal and that’s all she asked for.

Brielle got in her car and began to warm in up when she pulled her phone out to call Kiyan.

“Wassup ma?” Kiyan answered.

“Nothing much. Just leaving the doctor’s office.” Brielle smiled.

“Everything straight?” He asked.

“Everything is perfect.”

“You seem happy. Wassup with that? I gotta go fuck your doctor up?” Kiyan joked.

“No fool. I can’t be happy?” Brielle laughed.

“You can be happy, but not because some other man was just touching you.” Kiyan laughed.

“You are the worse boy. What are you doing?” Brielle said changing the subject.

“I’m at Shanice’s house. She is cooking breakfast.”

“You are so freaking greedy yo. I just cooked breakfast for you before I left your house this morning.” Brielle said.

“I’m a growing man. I have to eat.” Kiyan laughed.

“No you are a greedy ass man. What am I going to do with you?” Brielle sighed.

“Love me.”

“Too late. I already love you.”

“Well love me some more. I need all the love I can get.”

“I give
