"Wait we can't" I breathed out pulling away from Reese's lips. He didn't respond to me as his kisses moved down my body. My body betrayed my mind and reacted to his touch.

"Im feeling you and you feeling me, so what's the problem?" He asked but I knew he didn't care for an answer because he continued going and I didn't stop him.

Truth is I was scared and didn't know what going down this path with him would bring. I would be lying if I said I didn't have feelings for Reese. He was rough around he edges but I could tell he had a heart and was just surrounded by bad influencers.

I bit my lips and gripped the sheets trying not to be loud as Reese's tongue took me to another world. I opened my eyes and looked down to see him staring back at me with a smirk.

Reese's eyes bore into mine, as he released a breath before ripping the entirety of my panties. His hands wrapped tightly around my waist, as he kissed my inner thighs. My breath hitched, getting caught in my throat as I watched him take his time. His lips came in contact with my center, placing small pecks on her. Once his tongue came in contact with my clit, my hands flew to his as my back arched. He slid one finger inside of me, causing me to wince but soon relax as he began working it in and out.

His tongue did wonders against my clit, making me moan out in pleasure. My hands fell to his head, desperately trying to push him away

His arms wrapped tighter around my waist, as I felt my orgasm building up. My legs began to tremble, and my eyes rolled in the back of my head. Tears clouded my eyes as the pleasure was beginning to be too much to handle.

"Fuuck" I moaned out. The orgasm rippled through my body as Reese caught all of my mess.

"What was all that shit you was talking?" He asked being arrogant.

"Shutup" I mumbled propping myself up on my elbows to kiss him.

"Oh somebody want the dick huh?" he smirked as my hand slowly slid down his bare chest and I pulled away biting my lips, giving him a look.

"I don't want shit" I rolled my eyes moving away from him. He got off the bed for a minute then came back. I tried to hide my smile as he started kissing on me. Biting my lip, I held my breath as I felt him pressing on my entrance.

"You don't want it?" He raised his brows. He began teasing me by slapping against my entrance.

"Stop playing" I whined pulling him closer to me. My breath hitched as he slid in and he pushed my legs back towards my chest. Shooting my hands forward, I tried pushing him back because I couldn't take it all.

"Nah stop playing right? Take this dick girl" he grunted, leaning down to capture my lips. The ringing of his phone sounded throughout the room.

"Your phone" I panted trying to hold myself together as body melted with each stroke.

"Fuck that phone" he mumbled trailing kisses down my body.

"It could be important" I stopped him. He groaned in annoyance and pulled out.

"If it ain't, ima definitely make sure you can't walk for the rest of the week" he smirked while sliding on his boxers. I was about to say something but he answered the ringing phone.

He seemed to get real serious and turned to look at me briefly. I covered myself with the sheet and sat up. The look he gave me when he ended the call made me uneasy.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Get dressed" he said before grabbing some clothes and leaving the room. I frowned wondering what was going on.

I went into the bathroom and wiped myself down before pulling on my clothes. I quickly washed my face and gargled some mouthwash before leaving the room. Reese was at the door lacing up his sneakers.

"Reese what happened?" I asked completely confused on what was going on.

"Your brother is in the hospital" he revealed making my heart drop. I couldn't even gather the words to ask him why. I just grabbed my things quickly and slid my shoes on. I hopped in the car quickly and my mind raced as Reese sped through traffic.

I looked up seeing the place I was all too familiar with. It seem as if in the past free years, the hospital had become a second. But it wasn't a home, it's wasn't somewhere that made me feel comfortable when I stepped inside.

"Your whole family inside already" Reese said making me frown. I walked inside and into the waiting room where Joie was holding Asia.

"What happened?" I ask thinking the worst.

"He was out doing God knows what and passed out" my mom said looking like she was trying to keep herself together. I recognized some guy as in of the people that hung with Marcellus. I walked over to him and began to question him.

"Is he doing drugs?" I asked. I didn't understand how my seemingly healthy 17 year old brother just collapsed and fainted.

"Nah Joel ain't into nothing like that, he was cool one minute and the next thing I know, he's on the ground. I use his finger to unlock his phone and found ya moms number. Then I called up Reese" he explained. I nodded and walked away taking a seat next to Joie. Asia instantly got off her lap and sat on me.

"I missed you Neli" she mumbled before leaning her head on my chest.

"I missed you too" I smiled hugging her before closing my eyes. I just wanted my life to be sane for one moment.

When did everything become so crazy?

"Family of Joel Bennett" a doctor called out walking into the waiting room. We all stood and she walked over eyeballing a chart in her hand.

"Is he okay?" My mom asked.

"Yes he is fine, I want to talk to his immediate family about a few things and then he can have other visitors" she smiled making me take a breath of relief.

I handed Asia over to Reese before following the doctor to a secluded area. We all took a seat as she explained what had happened.

"Joel has arrhythmia which is basically an irregular heart beat. Now there are different types and he has what we call Bradyarrhythmias. This happens when the heart rate is slower than normal. When the heart rate slows, the prevent enough blood from reaching the brain. That's what caused him to pass out" she explained making me shake my head in disbelief. Joel was who I considered the healthiest out of all of us.

"We've brought them to the doctor countless times, how could they not have caught this" my father asked looking pissed off.

"Well it's something he could have developed. Most arrhythmias are not serious and life threatening. Believe it or not, the fainting is a good thing."

"How is that good?" I frowned.

"Well not everyone experience symptoms, symptoms are a good way to let you know something is wrong with your body. Now although I said most arrhythmias are not serious but the body can be vulnerable to cardiac arrest and a stroke. Stress and drug abuse can be-"

"My son isn't doing drugs" my mom spoke up.

"A stroke?!" My father asked looking in disbelief. Joie just sat there quietly biting her nails. She often got quiet during hard times and tried to stay positive. This time, it looked like she couldn't muster up her signature smile. I gave her shoulder a squeeze and looked back at the doctor.

"They was traces of some pretty hard drugs in his body" the doctor said making me frown. Joel never did drugs, he didn't even smoke weed.

"Where is my brother?" I asked already over what this doctor was saying.

"Follow me to his room, only one at a time please" she said as we stopped in front of a room door.

"Nayeli you go in and then Joie, we're staying the night anyways" my mom nodded. I took a deep breath and walked into the room. Joel was laying down and staring into space.

"I know I'm a failure and I need to do better" he spoke up once his eyes landed on me. I frowned and took a seat next to his bed.

"You're not a failure Joel and you're so smart and talented. You don't have to do this and get more caught up in this life"

"School ain't for me, the streets is something I'm good at. I'm already caught up, ain't no running from it." He shrugged.

"Man shut the fuck up" I found myself saying.

"Nayeli man get out of here with that"

"No you get out of here with that stupid ass 'I ain't choose the thug life if chose
me' shit. What is so fascinating about this life that you're willing to put your life and your families life on the line. This town is only so big Joel, you don't think your actions affect us?!" I could feel the tears trying the surface but I refused to cry.

"I ain't think about all that Nells"

"You don't seem to do much thinking at all these days. Now you're in the hospital, you need to focus less on these streets, more on your health and school" I lectured him.

"I hear you Nells" he mumbled closing his eyes. I stood up and stepped closer to his bed.

"Are you doing drugs Joel?" I asked what had be weighing on my mind. I didn't understand how else they could have found drugs in his system.

"Nah you know I don't mess with that" he frowned looking at me like I was crazy for even asking.

"The doctor didn't specify what but there's traces of drugs in your system" I crossed my arms and stared down at him.

"Nay you know me, I don't fuck with drugs especially after what happen with Khalil" he said making me nod. Khalil was one of Joel's closest friends growing up. He got caught up with the wrong people and started doing hard drugs at just 14. These sellers out here didn't care if they were selling to a baby or an elderly person, they just wanted to make some cash. He ended up owing some people money and couldn't get enough in time and they took his life.

"I'll be back tomorrow, Joie is probably gonna come in next and you know Mom and Dad are going to doing the most. You deserve it though, with your wanna be down with the thug life so bad head ass" I said before leaving. I spoke with my parents a little bit more and they assured me that I could go and come back in the morning.

I found Reese and he didn't ask any question which I was thankful for because I was still trying to wrap my head around things. Asia was in the back, strapped in her car seat and running her mouth.

"I can watch PJ Mask Neli?" She asked batting her long eyelashes. I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

"Of course, you want to put on your Owlette pajamas too?" I asked already knowing what her response would be.

"Yes!" She exclaimed doing a little dance in her seat. Reese chuckled from the driver seat as we pulled into the parking lot. We quickly got out and went up to his apartment. Asia forced me to make her all these snacks and we were spread out on a bunch of blankets in the living room.

"Uncle Reese you have to sing with us too" she said once we settled down to watch the show.

"What I'm singing" he huffed knowing he wouldn't win an discussion going against her.

"You have to stand in position" she pushed in place and handed him a toy. I noticed it was the blue one named Catboy. I had Gekko and of course she had Owlette. Pressing play, I started the show.

"Catboy" Reese shouted being extra as usual.

"Owlette" Asia jumped throwing her toys into the air.

"Gekko" I posed holding out the little toy in my hands. Asia mumbled over a few lines of the theme song before singing the part she knew. Reese and I sat down while she continued

"PJ MASK WE THE PJ MASK" she sung loudly and snatched all her toys from us. I chuckled as she laid down on the floor and watched her show intently.

"Lemme talk to you for a minute" Reese suddenly said standing up from the couch. I followed him, turning to look at Asia as we entered the bedroom. I took a seat on the bed while Reese leaned on the dresser.

"So what's up?" I asked looking around trying not to make eye contact with him. Being in his presence after what had went down made my face heat up. I didn't know where we stood but I couldn't deny my feelings.

"Why you acting shy now? Wasn't acting shy when-" he chuckled and closed his mouth when I gave him a look.

"Shutup" I mumbled picking at a random piece of lint on the bed. Reese walked up to me and placed his hands on either side of me on the bed.

"Your brother good?" He asked making me nod. I loved my family and didn't know what I would do if I lost them. I prayed to got every night to watch over them.

"Yeah he just needs to stop stressing and take care of his health" I responded rolling my eyes at Joel. He was my hard headed little brother that I couldn't stand but never wanted to be without.

"He's gonna be good, just gotta let shit runs it course sometimes"

"Yeah ain't much I can do, I told him what I need to and now it's up to him to take action. All I can do is sit back and pray" I shrugged.

"Sometimes that's the best thing to do, don't drive yourself in the hospital worrying about someone that ain't worried about themselves. He gotta learn one way or another. You his big sister so you wanna protect him naturally but it's only so much you can take" he said looking away. I could tell he was thinking about his relationship with Marcellus. Reese seemed to always be the one to bail Marcellus out and clean up his trail.

"When did you become so smart, thought all you did was talk shit" I teased.

"Stop judging people, it ain't cute" he smirked.

"That ugly ass smirk ain't cute" I joked.

"Gimme a kiss" he said making me look up at him. I leaned up meeting his lips and pulled back when he started getting carried away.

"Damn girl"

"I'm not just somebody you can get sex from now" I said not knowing was going through his head.

"You my girl, what you talking about" he furrowed his eyebrows.

"I'm your girl?" I questioned raising an eyebrow. I didn't want to move too fast and regret it later on.

"Yeah as in, if I catch you talking to another nigga, ima fuck you and him up" he said before leaving the room and returning again. I knew he went to go
check on Asia. She wasn't the type to mess
with anything but you never knew sometimes.

"So you want us to be-"

"I ain't use to relationships and shit like that but I'm feeling you and I don't usually give girls head so this ain't no hit it and quit it" he said. I smiled and found it sweet. The fact that he was trying to express himself to me made me smile.

"Shit felt like you were a master" I almost moaned thinking about earlier.

"We ain't finish what you started" he smirked.

"What I started? Nigga it's takes two" I laughed pushing him away.

"Mhmm 'Ms.Why You Stopped'" he teased making my face heat up once again. I ran after him and chased him into the kitchen. Asia shushed us and continued watching her show. A knocking on the door made us stop.

Standing up straight, I straighten my clothes out as Reese went to the door. He looked out the peephole and stepped back making a face.

"What?" I asked walking over to him.

"You invited her over here?" He asked confusing me even more.

"Invited who?" I asked stepping in front of him. I tip toed and peeked out the peephole and watched as a battered looking Armani stood in front of his door.

I stepped back and debated on answering the door or not.
