Miami, Florida
After she showered and changed she went to meet with him he had been agitated to say the least when he saw her. A girl she went to junior high school with had been entertaining him and his friends for the last few days now and he didn't like it she only came out later in the day.
It was like she didn't want to spend time with him after he came all the way here and he was going to talk to her when he seen her get out the car. Walking towards her" Star what's going on I mean ever since I got here you blow me off like what the fuck" he said angrily making her head swing towards him.
Shaking her head " First off what we not going to do that shit you cursing at me. And second I told you from jump that there was a lot going on in my family that I wasn't going to be able to be with you like that Lamar.
Because of what's going on so cut the bullshit" she says, and I told you I wanted to be there for you. It's like you're pushing me away Star tell me what's going on I'm your boyfriend " Lamar says. "Whose boyfriend" the man says from behind them making her turn pretending to be shocked as the man.
Flung the cigarette on the ground as he glared at Lamar"ahhhh umm he means a boy that is a friend Unc"Star stammered out. As the man nodded"umm is that what you mean boy because she anit allowed to have no boyfriend. Because her twin is a teenage dad we don't need anymore so this is where you sneaking off too.
With all that is going on with the family GIVE ME YOUR CELLPHONE" he said, but I need... was all she could get out. "GET YOUR ASS IN THAT CAR STAR AND TAKE YOUR ASS HOME NOW. AND YOU I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHERE YOU GO BUT YOU STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY NIECE " he says.
All she could do was stare pretending to be emotional"can I give him a hug goodbye please" Star said playing the part. The man groaned as he ran his hand through his blonde hair" Fine then go home" Bobby says. She hugged him and whispered I'll call you when I can" she says pulling away then rushing to her car.
At the same time all Lamar could do was watch as she sped away" with all due respect sir I love her and I wouldn't want. To put something on her that neither one of us are ready for" Lamar said, I don't give a fuck about you kid. Stay the fuck away from my niece don't call or text nothing before I make you" Bobby says walking away.
Letting him see the biker jacket and the insignia on the back knowing he would run his mouth to his father. Then hopping on the motorcycle and driving away leaving Lamar standing. When the both finally got back to the house Star jumped and hugged him" Thank you Uncle Bobby your the best.
This whole biker get up you stole is fascinating"she says, but the question is did he buy it"Manolo asked. "Manny I tell you the way she played him had me in awe good job kid" he says kissing her on top her head. Clapping her hands together" Now where's my mom she never gave me answer" Star asked.
Making her grandfather smirk" you mean she didn't give you the satisfaction of an answer it's not going to happen. You got that trait from her she could always get what she wants and I see she passed it on to you. But she is regretting very much right now" he laughed just then she spotted her mom.
With Orlando like they were in their own world " Hi Mami" she said with a smile, as her mother mumbled fuck" hola mi Vida" Elle replied. Watching her daughter use that smile and batting her eyes" ayy chucha she turning on the charm Elena Jr what do you want" Orlando asked.
"Do try and g me Estrella you got it from me so here's what I'm going to tell you if you can convince Orlando. Then we go if you don't you go with Titi Sam, uncle Drew and your brother" she says. It made Orlando spit his drink out" nope, No me quiero or" he says, as the girl looked at him.
Port Charles
It had been a few days he had just got off of work he was a bit disappointed that they didn't come. He was going to grab a burger from Kelly's and head home" hey babe let's go to the Metro Court I'm in the mood for a steak. You know that French one we tried" Jordan says she was happy that they didn't show.
Rubbing his back" you tried Curtis a relationship works both ways you know you can't be the only one trying" she says. As he grumbled before speaking" would you feel that same way if it was TJ. After he caught you in a lie Jordan" he replied,whoa I raised TJ Curtis you barely know these kids" she says.
Annoyed with the situation he was no lonji okger in the mood to eat anything" here's my credit card go have your steak I'm not in the mood" Curtis says. "Baby why are you letting this bother you so much you had to know she wasn't going to come through.
It takes a bigger person to put their pride aside and do for her children she's obviously still being selfish" she says. Before he could answer someone else did " Bitch I know you not talking about me because do I need to remind that we wouldn't be here had you kept your legs closed" Elle said. Getting both their attention as they turned to face her seeing Jordan's reaction was priceless.
Curtis stood surprised and a little pissed when he seen Orlando with her trying to keep his dismay to himself. He had to keep telling himself that he was married finally finding his voice. "I didn't know if you were still coming I tried calling Star's phone but no answer" Curtis says.
"Well that's because your she doesn't have her phone because I took it from her anyway she's by Sam's until we get settled in. Now make no mistake about it I don't like you or this bitch and if given the chance I would run you over in a heartbeat. Anyway with that being said I would do anything for my babies even deal with you.
So if you want to see her you know where she is"she says turning to walk away. I need to talk to you" he says shaking her head"Curtis you and I have nothing to talk about Estrella is choosing. To have her relationship with you and I will support her if that's is what she wants.
But she's at that age where you can call her directly you and I don't have to speak goodbye Curtis" she says. When he stops and grabs her hand that sent shockwaves through their entire body. As she pulled away" Just wait I minute I think we do I want to know about Roman" Curtis asked.
Orlando looked between them with a raised eyebrow" whoa chula estas bien" he asked. Elle shook her head yes" he isn't here anymore what is there to say" she says that's when he saw it. The tinged of hurt in her eyes before she gave him a straight face before walking away.
"He was my son to Elle you got to see him you got to hold him I just want to know about him" he say. Making her stop and take a deep breath" he looked the most like you with a head full of light brown hair that was straight. Just like my grandmother use to be and he only opened his eyes a handful of times" Elle replied as her and Orlando left.
He stood stunned to silence not knowing what to say"I need to go I will see you later" Curtis says leaving as well. She had to get rid of this woman and fast she just felt like she had a pull of her husband and Jordan didn't like it one bit.
Drew and Sam's house
After driving around for awhile he pulled up in front of his friends house and hopped out the car. With his mind still on what she told him he knew there was alot more to it then what he had originally thought. When he knocked Sam opened the door" Hey Curtis come in Star is out back with the kids" she says letting him into the house.
"Hey Sam how are you doing" he asked, I'm well can't complain I how about you" she replies as he tried to ease into it. Scratching his neck" I'm good you know this case is starting to come together and I should have everything ready in a few weeks" Curtis says.
Shaking her head"okay that's great to hear do you want something to drink Drew is firing up the grill" Sam says. "Yeah sure a beer is just fine" he says as she hands it to him as he begins to walk to the backyard but stopped. "Sam can I ask you something what happened when the kids we're born" he asked.
As she looks at him sympathetically" are your sure about that Curtis because it's not going to make you feel any better then you do"she says. With a sigh"yes I'm sure Sam I need to know and I tried to ask Elle and all I got out of her was he wasn't here what else is there to say.
And that he looked like me"he says, oh umm well I'm sorry Curtis I think she kind of spared your feelings. So I don't know if maybe you want to take it as an olive basket or not" Sam says, I don't care about that Sam I know there's more to it. I saw it in her eyes and Orlando's and I don't like not knowing or being in the loop.
So tell me please"he implored she felt bad for him reaching over and taking his beer from him. Then walking over to the liquor cart and pouring him something stronger then handing it to him. "Okay because of the accident she already that one of them or all of them weren't going to make it.
She was prepared to give her life for theirs and I would raise them at the time I didn't want kids. But she was my best friend how could I ever refuse she was having multiplies so she went in for a routine check up. That's when something ruptured I can't remember what but they had to take her into emergency C section.
Where she almost died but they were way to early Star was first then Elesandro and lastly Roman. But they needed to be quick because she was bleeding alot I mean she was losing more blood by the minute. And all I remember was she flat lined at one moment and I remember being scared out of my mind.
Thinking how am I going to raise these kids I can't she was just better at it then I was. I have never had fear like that in my entire life like that besides when I was having Scout. That was the only other time we're sure she wasn't going to make it through the night. I mean we were literally preparing for the worst and then we had hope.
She was in a coma for two weeks I remember feeling relief when she woke up then their were the kids. Roman was the smallest and the youngest he had the most health problems because he was being taken our when she was going into shock. The only thing he responded to was her voice we thought he was on the mend.
Then he took a turn for the worse his organs started to fail and there was nothing they could do to save him. And they wanted her to turn off his breathing tubes because he couldn't breath on his own. She couldn't do it she couldn't give up on him so she got a second and a third opinion.
And they all told her the same thing she couldn't save her son she helped other kids but couldn't save her own. She had to turn of his machines when he cried you could tell he was in pain. As much as she wanted to him she had to let him go and she wanted him so bad.
She wanted all of them but she had to do what was best for him so she turned it off. It broke heart into a million pieces I've never seen her like that ever she held him in her arms until he took his last breath. Elle is one of the strongest people I know and I couldn't bare to see her like that.
Then came guilt and anger and every other emotion you could think of and she blamed herself. For not noticing your were on drugs maybe if she had been paying attention. He would be here and her kids would be safe inside her and I didn't understand the magnitude of her pain until I lose Lila.
But when we lost him we lost a piece of her too and that's never going to come back"Sam finishes. As she wiped the tears from her eyes Curtis's heart sunk he felt worse then he did before. Now he understood her anger and the kids own as well his aunt was right how could he had been so naive.
Just then Star came in with Danny when he got up and hugged her tight"I'm going to make this right I promise"Curtis says. Not being able to hold back the tears that steadily streamed down his face. He had been so focused on not hurting Jordan that he didn't even think of the hurt he caused.
The one person that had his heart entirely it was back handed even showing up with her. After all they went through because of her cheating on Tommy wiping his tears away and clearing his throat. "Umm where's your mom I really need to talk to her is she at the Metro Court" he asked.
Making Sam and Star laugh" as if she would give Carly her hard earned money she brought a house but I can't give you that" Sam says. "Well can you call her and tell her to meet me inn the docks I have to take care of this. But when I come back I'm all yours and even if your brother doesn't he will"Curtis says.
Watching Sam call her on the phone when he asked her to pass him the phone"Elle look I know you don't want to talk to me. And you have every right to I've been an insufferable Jack ass and I know it going to take more then just sorry. To fix the damage I have done but this is a start so please I just want to talk.
It's fine if your busy so I will come to you then but this can't wait i think you have waited long enough. Yes you have I owe you that much Yes I do we can do this all day it's mot pointless Elena Nicole. Saying your name like what it's either you meet me or I come to you but I think this conversation is long overdue. You forget I'm a PI and a damn good one at that it's fine"he says
