Allen was stuck in place. Seeing Lawrynn cry over Murder’s bloody body broke even his heart. Hearing her scream his name and rock back and forth while holding his head on her lap was the most heartbreaking shit he had ever seen. In the hood, he had seen a lot of shit, but this shit right here had him choked the fuck up. He looked around to see if he could spot any of the niggas they had a problem with.
“Yo, what the fuck happened out this motherfucker?” Pain asked as he came up.
“What the fuck it look like? Somebody hit up Murder. Where the fuck were you?” Allen asked.
“Man, I got caught up with Connie’s thick ass. Do you know who did it?” he asked.
“Nah, some shit went down, and things got hectic as fuck,” Allen said, shaking his head.
“Excuse me, we need to get through here,” a paramedic said as they came up.
Allen stepped to the side, but he was sure to keep his eye on Pain. Looking at his friend laid out and getting worked on meant that everyone was a suspect until they found the real culprit.
“Law, you gotta get up, baby girl. We gotta get to the hospital. If you not gonna ride in the back, you can ride with me,” Allen told her.
Lawrynn didn’t make a sound; she just sat there with her hands still the same way they were when Murder was lying in her arms. She seemed to almost be in a catatonic state. Allen had never seen any shit like this before, only in those stupid horror movies he watched.
“Lawrynn, you gotta get up, baby girl,” Pain said, trying to help.
“Fuck you. If I find out you did this to him, I will kill you my damn self. I thought we were past this shit. Where the hell were you? You just happen to come up right now? How fucking convenient,” Lawrynn told Pain.
“Hold the fuck up. I get you all hurt and shit, but you can’t blame him for this shit. He was with me, that’s why he’s late. Fuck all that other shit,” Connie said from behind Pain.
Until she started talking, nobody noticed she was standing there.
“Who in the entire fuck are you? I suggest you get a backstory from ya boy here before you start sticking up for his wandering dick ass. I’m not changing shit. I just said either. Now I have enough bullets for you to get a couple too if you feel like protecting him that day,” Lawrynn said to Connie.
Pain and Allen had never seen this side of Lawrynn. Even with all the stuff going on with Murder, the way she looked right now had both of them slightly shook. There was nothing but hate and fire in her eyes.
“Come on, Lawrynn. We gotta go,” Allen said.
“Lawrynn, baby girl, you can’t be acting out like this. There is a time and place for everything. Just focus on being there for my son-in-law and leave all the bullshit aside. No need to worry about shit that’s never mattered anyway,” Lawrence said and looked at Pain while ignoring the stare that Connie was giving him.
Right now, those two were the least his of concerns, just like they should’ve been Lawrynn’s last concern.
Lawrynn walked beside Allen to the car. She low key wanting ol’ girl who was with Pain to come at her talking some more shit because she needed to get out some frustration. Beating some ass was right up her alley.
“I don’t think Pain did this shit,” Allen said as they all got in the car.
He and Lawrence exchanged looks in the rearview mirror. They were both thinking the same thing, but Lawrence didn’t feel like this was the time to talk about it. He shook his head from side to side, letting Allen know that he needed to drop it for now.
“Okay,” was all Lawrynn returned on the topic. She said what she said, and she meant what she said.
Lawrynn had never been so scared in her life. It was usually her in the ambulance, not Murder. Murder was the one who kept her together when she was falling to pieces. Being in this position was definitely a change for her. She had never seen Murder so vulnerable. Right when they pulled up to the hospital, she decided that if she was gonna hold him down like he had done for her, she had to put her feelings on the back burner.
“You want me to drop you at the door while I park?” Allen asked.
“Nah, I gotta get my mind right. You can park. I wanna be in on whoever did this to him,” she told Allen.
“What the hell! Oh, fuck nah. You’re not getting in this shit. That’s not a good look, baby girl,” Lawrence said from the back seat. He understood where she was coming from, but she needed to chill out on this one. There were too many emotions involved as far as Lawrence was concerned.
“He ain’t gonna like that shit, Lawrynn. I don’t know about that,” Allen said.
“He would do it for me. I’ve seen him go hard for me through everything, no matter who was at fault. He is me, and I am him, so I want in. If you don’t keep me posted, I’ll find out on my own,” she said as Allen turned the car off.
“Man, this shit ’bout to go downhill real fast,” Allen said, shaking his head.
He turned the car off and hopped out jogging to catch up with her. Shaking his head, Allen knew she was dead ass about what she just said. He just knew he didn’t want to be around when Murder found out what she was up to.
Walking into the hospital, Lawrynn knew she would be there all night. What she wasn’t ready for was to see all the nosey ass nurses looking at her ass like they didn’t know who she was there for. Murder and Lawrynn both had been in there together enough for them to know what the fucking deal was. Was it fucked up that the hospital staff should know them like the bouncers at a club, yeah? But, she didn’t give one fuck about all that right now.
“I’m here to see what’s going on with Maurice Jackson. He was just brought in by ambulance,” she said to the nurse.
