Chapter 38: So Close

"What are you guys doing here???"

"Why you have a knife??" Eli asked

"Who let y'all in my house"

"Luke did" Melo said

"Well.... get out"

"You still mad at me about Yas???"

"The last thing on my mind is Yas stupid ass!"

"You can be honest-"

"MELO! GOOD FUCKING BYE! I DON'T CARE WHO YOU DATE. MY SON IS MISSING AND I DONT HAVE TIME FOR THIS. GET OUT!"

"What do you mean he's missing??"

"Melo please get out, I don't wanna talk"

"Zen-"

"Don't make her ask again bro" Zendaya heard Luke voice behind her. Then she felt the knife being slowly taken from her hand. Melo and Eli left and Luke turned zendaya around to face him.

Tears brimmed her eyes and Luke pulled her into a hug. "Chris called me. Told me what was going on and ask me to check on you"

"Why Zander Luke??? All this cause she wants what I have?? She wants my baby father. Like I don't even know where to go from here"

"We gonna get him back. Sooner than later. Lil man gonna be back home safe and sound and you and Chris are gonna be okay" he said just as they heard the front door slam.

Walking upstairs Zendaya walked right past Chris sitting on the couch with his face glued to his phone. Lucas plopped down next to Chris "bro what you doing?"

"I'm calling this guy that ty knows. If he as good as I think he is then I'll find shorty before the police do and before my girl does and gets herself put in jail for murder"

"Is there anything I can do??"

" Just be there for her" Chris pointed up the stairs "I gotta go" he stood up grabbing his car keys

"So you really about to go out there by yourself??" They both turned around to see Zendaya standing on the stairs.

"Yeah cause I got us into this and this is my fault right?? So ima do this on my own" he walked out slamming the door.

"You gonna go behind him orrrrr????"

Sighing Zendaya jogged down the rest of the stairs and out the front door jumping into the passenger seat of Chris car "so where we going???"

"Get out" he looked at her with frustrated eyes

"No"

"Zendaya-"

"I let you kick me out your car once today. You crazy as hell if you think ima let that shit slide again. Where we going??" She put on her seatbelt

"Ty guy has a-"

They both jumped at the sound of someone knocking on the window. "Officer, how can I help you" Chris said once he rolled the window down.

"Where you guys headed??"

"To see a friend. Is that okay??"

"If you guys have a lead, don't keep it from us. This is a open investigation and that would be tampering"

"Can't I just take my girl to get food?? We having a stressful day" Chris huffed

"Mr. Brown I advise you-"

"Why are you even sitting on my property like this??" Zendaya interrupted

"Ms. Coleman you are under protective watch until we find the suspect"
