Day 2 of 3

Jayla frowned and quickly rushed back inside. "You got the mail?" Kidd asked.

"N-no, I got another l-letter" she said nervously passing him the note. Her hands were shaking and started sweating.

Kidd hugged Jayla, until she calmed down. "Jay relax. I told you I got you ma. You trust me right? " he asked. She nodded. "Ok so don't trip"

The rest of the day, Kidd and Jayla chilled inside. They played X-box together, ate junk food, play fought everything.

"What movie? " Jayla asked.

"Uh Insidious 2" he answered. Jayla found the movie on Netflix and they cuddled up.

Neither of them were really into the movie though, they both were caught up in their thoughts.

Jayla didn't understand why someone would want to kill her. Yea she got Khalil killed but he r***d and hit her. Besides, who would kill a future mother and her child? Only someone crazy like Khalil.

Kidd held Jayla tighter as the thought of someone taking her from him passed his mind. He couldn't lose her, he isn't going to. He should be the one of that hit list because he killed Khalil, not Jayla.

Breaking them both out of their thoughts, Kidd's phone rang. D was calling.

"Wassup" Kidd said answering the phone.

"Aye you need to get down here now. I don't know what the f**k is happenin but niggas down here asking for you by name, my nigga"

"Iight, make sure I'm covered cause Jay comin with me" Kidd replied.

"Naw they askin for lil ma too. Sayin she killed ole' boy so it's her turn to die" Kidd cursed under his breath. "How about this, come here and I'll go to yo place and watch her"

"Iight" He hung up.

Kidd jumped up and ran up to his room to change and grab his gun. Whoever was there askin for him and his girl by name was about to die.

"Ky, what's wrong? " Jayla asked walking into the room. He ignored her, not on purpose but because he was deep in thought. "Baby" she called out softly.

"What!?" he yelled. He looked up at Jayla and remembered who he was talking to. He sighed "I'm sorry ma, just some s**t on my mind heavy right now. But I gotta run to the trap right quick and handle some s**t. D comin over here so you'll be good iight?"

Jayla nodded and walked over to him. "What is it that you have to handle?

"Nothin you need to worry about baby" he said.

"Is it about this whole me getting Khalil killed thing?" she asked. He nodded. "Just be safe ok? I can't have nothin happen to you" she hugged him.

He hugged back "Nothin will happen to me. I love you"

"I love you too" she replied.

"Gimmie a kiss" he said smiling. She smiled back and kissed his lips softly before it turned into a full blown make out session. Kidd picked her up and laid her down on the bed gently.

Jayla put her hands under his shirt and felt on his 6 pack. Her hands traveled to his back and she ran her nails down his back.

Kidd started sucking on her neck and grinding into her as Jayla moaned.

"Aye where y'all at?" D called from downstairs. Kidd and Jayla pulled apart from the kiss. Kidd stood up slowly and fixed himself up just as D walked into the room. "Wassup" he dapped Kidd

"Hey D" Jayla said smiling. He smiled back and hugged her.

"Iight I'm out. D, protect her and my unborn man. I'm trusting you" Kidd kissed Jayla one more time before leaving. Jayla and D walked downstairs to finish watching the movie.

"Jay I ain't know you were prego"

"Yeap and I'm so excited" she smiled.

"You're happy to know you'll be fat and hungry and having mood swings? You're weird" he laughed. Jayla playfully pushed him and laughed too. "So what you plan on doin for ya man 23rd birthday ?"

"He said he didn't want a party or gifts but we both know he'll get both. I was thinkin a surprise birthday party but I'll need help" she looked at D.

"If you want my help just ask lil ma"

"D will you help me set up Ky's surprise birthday party?" she asked sweetly. She pulled out her puppy face and blinked her eyes repeatedly.

"Aw that's cute" he cooed. "But no" it was quite for awhile then D bust out laughing because of her facial expression. "I'm playin Jay, I'll help"

"Oh you better" she threatened.

"Or what? " D challenged.

"I woul-" Jayla was interrupted by a hard banging on the door causing her to jump. D reached for his gun and walked slowly to the door. He looked through the peep hole and his body tensed up.

He took out a second gun and motioned for Jayla to get upstairs and just as she stood up, the door flung open revealing ...Kevin and Micheal?

"M-Michael? K-kevin? " Jayla stuttered. They smirked at her then pointed the gun at her.

"Run" D yelled before firing shots at both men. He fired at both men, hitting them. Kevin shot D in the shoulder and thigh before falling. Micheal, whose attention was on Jayla, shot Jayla in her back going through her stomach.

She was shot while running upstairs, she dropped to her knees on the steps, then fell. D watched Jayla drop and prayed she was ok. He pulled out his phone and called Kidd. "Wassup, everything good over there?"

"Naw man. Jayla s-she hit. Michael and Kevin showed up a-and shot us both."

"Aw s**t, we down the street" Kidd said before hanging up. He had half the team with him.

D sighed and dragged himself over to Jayla. D is a big man. He stands at 6'4, muscle on muscle and is dark skinned. He's been shot before so this was nothing but it still hurt like hell.

He picked Jayla up, ignoring the pain he was goin through and laid her on the couch. Her eyes were shut and her breathing was short. "Jayla, look at me" D said.

She opened her eyes a little more and stared at him. She had blood starting to come out her mouth.

D took off his shirt and put pressure on her wound.

"My b-baby" she said barely above a whisper as a tear escaped her eyes.

"Shh don't talk Jay. Kidd on his way. Just hold on" he grabbed Jayla hand with a tight grip, as he sat on the floor with his back facing her. He leaned his head back, feeling himself get dizzy.

His grip loosed on Jayla's hand "D" she said whispering. She gripped his hand tight, and he let her know he was still there by squeezing back.

Kidd and his boys rushed inside to see 2 bodies on the floor, and Jayla and D in the living room. "f**k, get rid of these bodies and clean up this blood while I call 911."

2 guys got rid of the bodies while the other 6 quickly cleaned up the blood. Not even 15 seconds after the blood was cleaned up, the ambulance arrived.

Kidd jumped in the ambulance with Jayla and held her hand. He could hear the paramedics talking but his focus was on Jayla.

She was staring right at him. He smiled a little and kissed her hand as tears escaped his eyes.

"I'm so sorry" he told her. He caressed her face as her eyes started to close. Jayla's heart monitor stopped. Beeeeeeeeeeeeep

"We're losing her" one of the paramedics said. He removed Jayla's hand from Kidd's "1 2 3" he said as sent shocks through her body. Nothing. "1 2 3" he said again as he sent a second wave of shock through her body. Nothing. The paramedics sighed. "I'm sorry sir"

Kidd grabbed Jayla's hand as held it tight. "No try again" tears flowed rapidly from his eyes.

"It w-"

"Again!!" He yelled. Kidd began praying out loud as the paramedics sent a third wave of shock through Jayla. Beep beep beep beep.

They pulled up to the hospital and quickly rushed Jayla to the back. Kidd sat in the waiting room and put his head in his hands. He heard nurses talking and looked up to see D being rushed in.

His eyes were open "Is he ok?" Kidd asked one of the nurses.

"Yes he's fine but losing a lot of blood" she answered before running off. Kidd called Mya and told her the news then called La, D's wife.

Moments later, both women ran in with red puffy eyes. They both cried on Kidd's shoulder while he rubbed their back.

Kidd wanted to so badly just let it out, but he needed to be strong for both of the girls.

"Excuse me? " a tall black man said to Kidd. He looked up at the man. "Are you here for Jayla?" he asked. His eyes were also red and puffy.

"Yea, who are you?" Kidd asked.

The man cleared his throat "Her father"
