The Gangster & The Good Girl: The Final Chapter

Raqualita slowly got up from the bathroom floor as she wiped her mouth,
she still felt nauseous and a little fatigued still really scared that she could possibly be pregnant, but then she said " maybe it's just the flu..." she sighed as she looked at Michael who was lying in bed sleeping still.
Raqualita, didn't even know if Michael wanted kids or not let alone a marriage.
She has lived with him and his gang for a month and yet she is still learning more things about him and he was learning more stuff about her as well. Raqualita then thought about her future and the fact that if she gets pregnant then the baby will most likely end up being raised around gangs, guns, and violence. And that's not what she wanted for her kids, she wanted to give them the life she never had which was a happy one, one without an alchoholic mother and an absent father or daily beatings or leading them to thoughts of wanting to run away. Raqualita then started cry as she fell back down against the toilet bowl. Michael, woke up as he opened his eyes he saw Raqualita wasn't in bed with him so as he sat up he noticed Raqualita was kneeling on the floor crying next to the unflushed toilet bowl. Michael got up out of bed as he went to Raqualita and held her and said " baby what's wrong? you sick?" he said as he flushed the toilet while holding her close she sniffled and said " Well sort of...but..." Michael stopped her as helped her up and said " come on baby you need to be in bed..." Michael helped her back in bed as he tucked her in then Raqualita said in a weak voice " Michael I have something I want to tell you..." Michael looked puzzled as he said " baby girl you can tell me anything....now tell me what is it?" Raqualita sighed as she said " I think I might be pregnant...." Michael's eyes widened as he stared at her shocked, Raqualita got worried because he didn't say anything so she said " Michael? Michael? are you ok?" the first thing that came out of Michael's mouth was " Oh shit, shit, shit!" Raqualita then got upset and said " that's all you have to say is oh shit?!" Michael then said " well I'm shocked!" Raqualita then said " you do realize I still don't know yet so to get so shocked without me even taking a pregnancy test is pointless?" Michael tried calm down as he laughed and said " yeah you're right...we need to get you one of them tests so go get dressed..." Raqualita nods as she got up and put some clothes on then walked with Michael down stairs as they slipped past the guys on the couch as they were playing video games.
They had to avoid discussing what they were doing. So Michael and Raqualita get into Michael's Benz and drive off to the nearest liquor store to buy a box of pregnancy tests.
They came back home as one of the guys saw them walk through the door and said " hey boss where'd you guys go?" Michael got irritated and said " the store where the fuck do you think we went?" the guy then said " well damn sorry boss" then Carlos yelled " hey you guys went to the store why you ain't bring me nothin' dats messed up!" Michael then yelled " I don't have to buy ya ass nothin Carlos! If you want something get it ya damn self!"
Carlos just kept playing his video game as Snake the said to him " I think boss wanted to get some more Trojans 'cause he ran out when tapping that sweet ass..." they both pounded fists then Michael glared at them and yelled " what did y'all mother fuckers say!?" Carlos and Snake both said " nothin" Michael glared at Carlos and Snake then him and Raqualita went into the bedroom as Raqualita took out a pregnancy test from the box they bought and went into the bathroom and closed the door then peed on the test as she then sat on the toilet and waited a few minutes as she began pondering about a future with Michael. Was she in over her head?, is she ready to raise a child? Or is she doomed to be just like her mother?. Raqualita, sighed as the minutes were up and as she held the pregnancy test in her hands she closed her eyes first before viewing the results then as she opened her eyes she got up from the toilet and opened the bathroom door as Michael was pacing back and forth and looked at her and said " so what it say?" Raqualita sighed and said " positive..." Michael's jaw dropped and said " oh wow..." Raqualita sat on the bed in shock as Michael sat next to her and said " well what do you want to do?" Raqualita then said " well abortion is out of the question for me so Im keeping the baby..." Michael then said " well do you want to get married?" Raqualita stayed silent for a couple of seconds then said " I don't know Michael...do you?" Michael then said " I don't know either..." Raqualita then said " Michael do you even want this baby?..." Michael looked at her and said " what makes you think that I don't?" Raqualita then said " because you're acting like I'm trapping you...if you want I can just leave right now and be out of your life and you can be single and happy..." Michael then turned to her and said " No! I love you and I have no problem raising this baby with you...." Raqualita smiled weakly but then said " but what about the gang I can't raise a baby around guns and blood shed..." Michael stayed silent as Raqualita then said " you need to choose either it's us or the thug life..." before Michael was going to say something there was a banging at the door as they heard " BOSS COME OUT QUICK!! THE COBRAS ARE BLASTING US!!!" Michael then said " shit! Raqualita stay here..." Michael grabbed his AK 47 and made his way carefully out down the stairs as he noticed five of his men were shot including Reggie.
Michael kneeled down in front of Reggie as he was holding his arm as Michael asked him " are you aight?" Reggie then said " I'm cool...is Raqualita ok?..." Michael nodded as he handed Reggie his pistol from his belt and said " use this to protect yourself..." Reggie then said " thanks brotha" Michael then said " ya welcome man..." he then quickly got up and ran behind the kitchen counter as one of the Cobras began shooting and was shooting all around the house.
Michael had his back against the kitchen counter scared, he was trying to keep his composure but was scared for Raqualita's safety. He then thought " Damn it! Shoulda never left her alone...." then suddenly the shooting stopped and he thought he ran out of amo. Michael, remembered there was a machine gun in the hallway closet so he quickly ran to the closet and got the gun out as it was already loaded and began shooting at the Cobras. As he was shooting he yelled out to his crew " GET DOWN!". Raqualita, was standing by the door way covering her ears from the loud gun shots as Michael was firing off his machine gun like a mad man. Half of the Cobras were dead but still left the ones that were outside. Michael stopped as he noticed no one was firing so  he put down his machine gun and as he did he saw Raqualita and said " come here baby!" Raqualita uncovered her ears and before she was about to go to Michael a Cobra member ambushed her as he held a gun to her head, it was the leader of the Cobras.
Michael became nervous as he got out his hand gun and pointed it at him and said " put ya fucking gun down!!" the lead Cobra didn't care he then said " fuck you mother fucker! I'mma kill you and dis bitch right here!" Michael then yelled " you betta not! I'll kill yo ass first!" Raqualita got scared as she yelled " Please don't let him kill me Michael!" the lead Cobra got irritated and yelled " SHUT THE FUCK UP!" then Michael yelled " YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH ASS MUTHA FUCKA AND IF YOU SHOOT HER I SWEAR TO GOD IMMA FUCKING KILL YOU!" but the lead Cobra smirked and cocked his gun as he pointed it at Michael and said " how bout I kill you and make this bitch mine?" Michael tried to keep his composure as he cocked his gun and pointed it at him. Michael, looked at Raqualita as she stomped on the lead Cobras foot then elbows his stomach hard as the lead Cobra accidentally shoots his gun up at the ceiling then he gets mad and smacks Raqualita across the face and yells " Bitch!" Michael got upset and tackled him down as he punched him in the face while yelling " DON'T YOU FUCKING TOUCH HER!!!" as punched him repeatedly against his mouth but the lead Cobra pushes him off of him and starts punching Michael in the face then he stands up and kicks him in the stomach. Michael, curls up into a ball as he tries to make the pain subside but the lead Cobra stood over him laughing as he said " you ain't nothing but a bitch" but Michael then tripped him with his feet as Michael stood up and kicked him in the back and stomach hard then taking out his hand gun and points it at him and says " get the fuck up!" so the lead Cobra gets up as he gets his gun out too as they both point their guns at each other. Michael, looked at him with such anger in his eyes as he stood there silent while pointing his gun at the lead Cobra. The lead Cobra then emptied out the gun barrel to leave just one bullet in his gun as Michael did the same. They both pointed their guns as they waited for one of them to pull the trigger as Raqualita stood back watching them scared. Michael, pulled his trigger and so did the lead Cobra and as they both shot each other Raqualita covered her eyes as she didn't want to see Michael get shot, she cried as she slowly uncovered her eyes and looked to see the lead cobra was shot dead but Michael fell back as the bullet only hit his arm.
Raqualita, quickly went to his side and said " Michael! Michael! Are you ok?" Michael coughed and said " yeah, I'll be ok...." Raqualita sighed of relief as Michael said " how about you baby are you ok?" Raqualita sniffled as she said " yes baby Im good..." Michael smiled as Raqualita smiled back in relief as she caressed Michael's face then helped him up as one of the guys yelled " BOSS WHAT THE HELL SHOULD WE DO NOW!!!?!?" Michael grunted in pain and yelled " WE NEED TO GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE THATS WHAT!!!" so the guys get their stuff and load up as Raqualita quickly packs while helping Michael down the stairs and into the van as they rush out the drive way and drive fast. Raqualita then asked " so where are we going now?" Michael then answers " we have another place up in the mountains, we'll hide out there for awhile...." Raqualita then says " oh ok...". As they arrived to a big cabin that's near by the lake they un load as Raqualita and Michael find a room and Raqualita gets the first aid kit out and helps Michael's wound as Raqualita then says " So Michael..." Michael smiles and says " yes baby?" Raqualita sighs and licks her lips as she says " um have you thought about what we talked about?" Michael sighed and said " yes...." Raqualita then says " so what do you want to do?" Michael stayed silent for a few minutes then said " I don't know Raqualita....it's not like I know anything else I never went to college I didn't even graduate high school--" Raqualita then cuts him off as she says " you can go back to school!" Michael then says " well what about you? Aren't you still in school?" Raqualita then says " I'll be graduating soon..." Michael sighed then said " I don't know Raqualita...all I ever knew was the gang life I've been in this game since I was sixteen..." Raqualita held Michael's hand as she said " Michael, don't worry I can help you...it's scary for me too but I want us to be together through thick and thin" Michael smiled as he stayed silent for a few seconds then says " ok...I'll go back to living  a regular life..." Raqualita smiles and says " really?!" Michael nods as Raqualita hugs him tightly then kisses his lips. Two days later Michael tells his gang that he's leaving and has Reggie be in charge of the gang as Michael and Raqualita left them and started a new life together.
