MILAN VICTORIA JOHNSON
BROOKLYN NEW YORK

We finally got to his crib and he got out of the car walking towards his door unlocking it.

After a few seconds I got out of his car and walked away.

"Aye where you going." Ghost shouted.

I ignored him and continued walking away.

"I'm speaking to you"

I heard his footsteps becoming louder and louder and he grabbed my arm.

"Don't ignore me I said where the fuck do you think you're going."

"Home where does it look like I'm going." I lashed my arm out of his grip.

"Naah you ain't going home." He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards his house.

"Yes I am leave me alone."

I tried to pull my hand away but his grip was too tight.

"Let go off me." He still wasn't letting go.

He then stopped on his tracks and turned towards me.

"What the fuck is your problem."

He let go off my hand waiting for me to answer.

"I don't need to explain myself to you." I turned my face away.

"What the fuck is wrong with you you've been airing me for a week the fuck did I do wrong?"

"You know I don't like this shit it makes me feel like I've fucked up so just tell me what's wrong."

He walked towards me and he held my hands. I can smell his rich cologne.

"It's nothing I ain't mad at you." I shook my head.

"Yes you are just tell me you know i always got you."

"Is it because of Rachel?"

"Huh?" I turned towards him.

How does he know.

"You heard me is it because of Rachel?"

It was because of her but I didn't want to tell him otherwise he will find out that I like him.

"Cause if it is I already cut her off you ain't gotta worry bout her no mor-"

"No." I shook my head cutting him off.

"So why are you mad at me what did I do?"

"It's just... i like you okay." I said while playing with the ends of my hair.

I was replied with a long silence and i looked up to see Ghost.

He had a cold expression in his face and he wasn't even looking at me.

I fucked up i knew I shouldn't have told him.

"Ghost?" I said tapping his shoulders.

"Run back in the house." Ghost said coldly.

"Huh?" I asked I was so confused.

"I said run back in the house and lock the door."

He slowly took out his gun loading it and that's when I knew something was wrong.

I slowly turned away and ran back in and few seconds later I heard gunshots.

I gasped holding my head and kneeled down in front of the door.

I put my hands on my mouth to stop myself from screaming everything was so loud.

Then it went quiet for a few seconds.

"Ghost?" I whispered to myself.

I then heard banging on the door.

"Open up." I got up and looked through the peep hole and there was Ghost holding his arm.

"Milan open the fucking door." The banging got weaker and I heard him wince.

I quickly unlocked the door and Ghost came in holding his arm. His now white T-shirt he was wearing turned red

"What the fuck!" I screamed and I ran up to him.

"Chill bruh I ain't get shot." He said while sitting down on the stairs slowly wincing.

"What happened out there." I slowly sat next to him watching him hold his arm as the blood dripped down.

"Some nigga was pointing a gun at you if it wasn't for me to head would've been blown off."

"What?" I froze.

"Why would someone be after me ?" I asked.

"That's what I should be asking you." He slowly stood up and walked upstairs.

"Lemme help you." I ran up to him holding his arm.

We walked into his bathroom and he sat down on the toilet seat. I slowly took off his shirt not caring if I got blood on me.

I then checked his arm to see that it was badly grazed and bleeding.

"The bullet only grazed past me I'm mad lucky." Ghost said while leaning back.

I shook my head and opened his cabinet and took out a medical box.

I got some water rinsing the blood away so that I can see the cut better.

"This gon hurt." I said while taking out a bottle of alcohol looking at him sympathetically.

"I've been through way worse." He said while wincing.

I slowly poured the alcohol on his arm watching him wince in pain.

"Fuck." He shouted while punching his leg.

He then held his breath while leaning forwards and backwards.

"Hurry the fuck up." He whispered while tapping his foot up and down and shaking his head.

"I'm sorry I'll be quick," I took out some cotton pads wiping his arm.

Then I took out a white bandage and wrapped it around.

"Ah its too tight Milan." he said while holding my hand.

"will you shut up and let me tie it around?" He instantly let go of my hand mumbling under his breath and leaned back.

"There." I smiled

I put the alcohol back in the medical box along with the wipes and bandage.

I then felt someone hugging me from behind.

"Thank you." He said it low enough for both of us to hear.

His hot breath was tickling my ear.

"It's the least I can do." I whispered back

I then turned around and he was looking at me deeply.

"You got blood over there lemme wipe it for you." He was pointing at my boobs and he took out a tissue.

As he was about to touch me I smacked his hand away. "Move you pervert."

I was blushing like crazy which caused him to chuckle.

"I suggest you go take a shower." Ghost then exited the bathroom closing the door behind me.

I sighed to myself and took off my clothes stepping inside the shower.

It was hot and relaxing I took a deep breath and remembered what ghost said to me.

Was someone really after me?

I can hear Ghost talking faintly outside of the bathroom which made me wonder who was he talking to.

Thank god he didn't hear me say that I like him otherwise I wouldn't be able too explain myself.
