"We haven't seen Alex since and it turned out our mother was two weeks pregnant. So technically, we lost 3 people that day. That shit really fucked us up but granddad did his best to straighten us out even if it was terrible some of the time." Huey ended the story of his parent's murder and there wasn't a single dry eye in the room. Like Huey explained, this is why they act the way they do, they were traumatized. Any child would.

"Shit…damn. Gotta nigga crying and shit." Caesar was the first to speak up after the story because it was too heavy to speak straight after, they needed more time to soak it in.

"Thank you for trusting us. Don't think if you acted any different, we still wouldn't be together. I am in love with this Huey not what could have been Huey. We don't see you any different. You're still Huey and Riley Freeman that made our lives crazy." Jazmine explained as she held onto Huey's hand. As you could tell, she was crying the most from the beginning before Huey even mentioned how they died.

"Saying like we were gonna change any way Mariah." Riley replied back to her with Royalty holding onto him. "We have some pictures of them if you want to see?" Riley asked and they all nodded their heads. Huey and Riley jogged upstairs and a few minutes later, came back with a handful of things. There were photo albums and CDs which they guessed had home videos on it.

They decided to look through the album first and it made them all coo at how adorable Huey and Riley were when they were younger and how beautiful their parents looked together.

"We finally get to see Huey smile and it is more adorable than I thought." Ming said as she looked at the picture that had Huey smiling in the hands of Christian and Mackenzie Freeman.

"You two are literally you fathers twin." Cindy said as they saw a picture of three playing in the pool, the two looking at least 1 and 3.

"We get that a lot whenever people see us. Even when we went back to Chicago for Christmas a family friend kept calling us Christian. Very awkward but oh well. Grandad told us that our mum wanted to have a little girl in hopes that she would like her. I hope one day I get a little girl that is like my mother and a son like my father." Huey explained as they continued to flip through the pages.

"Did they have a name?" Hiro asked.

"They were going to name me Angel if I was a girl but before I was born, decided to just stick to Riley for either."

Before they knew it, they were at the end of the album and the last picture was the family that should have been four, smiling big and bright at the camera. You could feel the love radiating off the picture.

Christian was holding on tight as if he was scared to let them feel any type of emptiness. Mackenzie had that black girl magic glow as she smiled at her husband and kids. While Riley and Huey looked as if that was the happiest day of their lives by the big childish grins on their faces.

"This was the day they were killed… the last picture we took together…" Huey stared down at the photo. It has been so long since he's looked at the pictures. No matter how much pain was being carried in this one picture, he could only think of the amazing times they had together.

"That's so fucked up. Did they find the person that did it?" Royalty asked as they put the pictures down to get ready to watch the videos.

"Nah. Everyone knows who was responsible but no one is saying shit. Even when they asked us, we told them who it was but they said it was unreliable due to our age." Riley explained.

"That's some bullshit. I hope that nigga got what was coming to him." Caesar said and everyone agreed, the system was messed up.

"He did. Got killed in a drive by a year later which caused the gang to go back to fighting. It was the longest truce the gangs of Chicago have had in years. All for our parents as well as others caught up in their violence." Huey told his friends. He couldn't believe how much he's told them, he thought they would be babying and fussing over him which is why he didn't really want to say anything in the beginning but they are very understanding. Made him feel like shit for not telling them in the first place.

"What about your mums' side? Do you talk to them?" Jazmine asked since they have never talked about their mothers' side ever before.

"They weren't too happy about our parents being together. Thought he would slow her down but they proved them wrong. Our dad actually managed to hold the home down while our mum was studying then working long shifts. They somewhat accepted it but still had their doubts. My dad's side has always been around while our mums was occasionally. When they were killed… they blamed my dad and cut ties all together. We only talk during holidays and birthdays." Huey explained to them and they just nodded along.

"It wasn't your dads' fault. They really can't blame him over something he had no control over. The day I meet them you best tape my mouth shut." Royalty said annoyingly.

"Trust me, I know how you feel." Riley replied back.

"Alright, lets watch them videos." Hiro said and they did.

...

"Do you, Christian Joseph Freeman, take Mackenzie to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"I do."

"And do you, Mackenzie Raven Johnson, take Christian to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"You may kiss the bride."

The entire church exploded in applause and cheers as the two kissed passionately. They finally found time to get married as Mackenzie had just graduated from college, the decided it was time for them to get married.

"I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with me Mrs. Freeman."

"I hope you can keep up Mr. Freeman."

…

"Welcome home Huey. You going to love it here, your room is amazing can't wait for you to see." Mackenzie said as she recorded her husband walk into their house with a new born Huey in the car seat. Once they settled inside Christain took Huey out of the car seat and showed him around the room, the new born was alert and stared at everything in the room.

"Yeah boy, this is just for you. We spent about 5 months doing this and you best appreciate this shit." Christin said as he looked down at his son.

"Chris, you can't be swearing around Huey."

"I might as well. Do you know who my daddy is? And my auntie? And anyone who has the Freeman name?" Christian joked as he settled Huey down for his nap.

"Well, can we at least hold it back for a while."

"The best time to use it would be when he doesn't understand anything, when he starts talking, then we have a problem."

"Whatever baby boy. Have a nice nap Huey."

…

"...Happy Birthday to you."

The camera was on Huey and his parents as their friends and family stood around them to celebrate Huey's first birthday.

"Blow it out Huey." His mother's eyes were filled with tears, she couldn't believe her baby boy was already one. Huey attempted to blow it out but it wasn't going out so his parents leaned forward and helped him.

"Yaay. Cake." Huey cheered as he clapped his little tiny hands together, making the crowd join in.

"That's my grandson!" Aiden Johnson cheered from the front as he reached out for Huey.

"I thought he would look more like you now Mackenzie, I guess not." Simone Johnson said as she pinched Huey's chubby cheeks.

"Well us Freeman's do have strong genes." Robert Freeman said proudly.

"I guess. The next one will have that strong Johnson blood." Aiden replied and Christian had a slight eye roll which made Mackenzie give him a light slap.

"Now who wants cake?"

"Me! Me daddy!"

…

"Huey this is your baby brother Riley. You need to be a good big brother and help him and protect him." Mackenzie was once again sitting in a hospital bed looking surprising fresh after just giving birth to her second son.

"Wiley?"

"Yes Riley. He looks just like you when you were born." Christian had Huey in his lap as they sat on the bed looking down at the new born Riley. All he's done since he's come out is sleep.

"Baby." Huey lightly stroked his brothers face as he looked down in curiosity.

"That Freeman blood strong!" Grandad shouted behind the camera which made the family laugh.

"Dad, you just wait. When a little girl comes, its over for you. That's straight me." Mackenzie said as she passed Riley over to her husband and 22-month-old son.

"Yeah yeah we'll see." Christian rolled his eyes before kissing both sons.

…

"Yaaay!" Everyone cheered as the family of four blew out the candles. It was now Riley's first birthday and if it wasn't for his badge, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between him and Huey.

"Daddy. Riley one. I three." Huey said as he proudly showed his number on his fingers.

"Not quiet son. You're nearly three, in two months. You were born in November." His father explains.

"Nomember." He tried to repeat making the crowd aw.

"Riley what do you have to say? You wanna give a speech?" Mackenzie asked her son.

Huey learned how to talk clearly early on but Riley did too but his was not as clear. He never stops babbling.

"Mummy food." He said as he pointed to all the food on the table and continued to babble.

"Listen to the boy let's eat!" Grandad announced before taking his grandsons away so their parents could cut the cake.

…

For the next hour or so, the group of friends sat down and watched videos of Huey and Riley. From when they started walking, going to the park, going to Disneyland everything. All the good times were recorded and it was amazing to see. They didn't deserve to die.

Huey looked around at the people around him, all eyes glued onto the screen actively watching. He looked at his friends; they were amazing, supported him through everything. Riley, his brother, would have made their parents proud of who he is today. Yeah, they may have slapped him into shape with his potty mouth but that could be fixed.

Then there was Jazmine. His girlfriend. Partner in crime. She didn't stop to amazing him and here she was cuddled up next to him and not treating him like a baby after tell her about his troubling and dark past.

These people here... he'll be damned to let them go.

Some more background on Huey and Riley's parents. They really had good times. Don't worry the next chapter is going to be lighter... maybe. Make sure you leave a review. Shout out to Bulma-Dreams-Of-Woodcrest for following and reviewing from the beginning. Much apricated.

Until next time.
