"Marco, don't go! Please don't go!" I yelled as he grabbed his jacket, heading for the door. Tears flooding my face, as I cried in despair. I knew what was going to happen; he was going to fight.
"Babe, I got to." He reasoned. I shook my head.
"No, you just want to. You don't have to do anything, Marco. I know what's going to happen!" I yelled at him. He stood, mouth clenched.
"What? What's going to happen, Ellie? Huh? Tell me!" He yelled in reply. I wiped my face.
"You're gonna go back to jail! The bad thing about it, Marco, is you don't fucking care!" I yelled turning away, but just to be brought back to my original stance. His nose was to mine.
"I'm not gonna go back to jail. It's a simple fight. And I do care, more than you think obviously." He gritted. I shook my head.
"Whatever, Marco. Have fun in your gang. Have fun in jail as well. Funny how I thought I actually meant something to you, but obviously I don't. Bye Marco, remember I love you, always." I spoke, breaking away from his grasp. I walked back into the bedroom.
"Ellie, please don't." He started, I just shut the door. I walked to my bed, crying my heart out. I heard him on the other side of the door.
"Ellie, I love you. Please, talk to me baby." Marco pled from the other side.
"What Marco? I see where I stand. You never stay with me, what am I going to do if you get killed? Huh? Do you know how bad I feel every time you go?" I yelled in hate. I got up and pulled the door open.
"Do you know what it feels like to know that possibly my life will be taken away from me? You're all I have Marco! What don't you get about that?" I cried, looking away. I felt him grab my face, making me look at him.
"I love you, Ellie. I do this for you so you would be safe. Do you know what we're going up against? The Deuces and Vipers are together now, it's nothing to worry about baby. We've got the odds." He coincided. I bit my lip.
"I only want you safe Marc. It scares me so much to know you could be gone just in the snap of a finger. I hate it. I hate knowing that one day I won't ever see you again because of these fights. I don't want you to risk your life for me." I spoke, kissing his neck.
"I just want you, Marco." I whispered, kissing him hard on the lips. He ran his tongue across my lip. I opened my mouth, letting him in.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer. He wrapped his arms around my waist tightly, pulling me even closer. I ran my fingers through his hair, tugging it lightly. We were interrupted by a knock on the door.
We pulled apart, sighing. He turned, pulling me along with him to the door. He kept his arm around my waist as he opened the door. It was Vinnie, Leon and Scooch.
"What is it?" Marco wondered. Vinnie rubbed his chin, looking at Leon.
"Steelo and Pockets are back; they jumped Philly and Tino." Leon started. I bit my lip, trying to hold back tears. Marco turned to me, giving me a sorrowed look.
"Go." I muttered out. Marco pulled me into a kiss.
"I love you, Ellie." He spoke. I nodded, tears falling down my face.
"I love you, too." I replied, watching him and the three others leave. I fell on the floor, only praying that Marco would be safe.
