A/N: Well this is it folks, oh yes this is the final chapter. I hope that all your questions was answered! Okay I stole that from PaRappa The Rapper. This was fun, but all good things have to come to an end. I really appreciate all of you for reading this and making this story fun to write. Without ya'll I probably would have stopped back at Chapter 3 or something, but enough of me praising you all, let's get on with the SHOOOOOOOW!
Disclaimer: For last time...I DO NOT OWN THE BOONDOCKS!
One more A/N: A lot of you are questioning if Caesar had a condom on when he duked Cindy. The answer is yes and here's an except from Chapter 15.
Now they both found themselves completely nude. Caesar looked deep into Cindy's icy blue eyes.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Caesar asked while grabbing the protection.
"Yes I do…I love you." she said with tears in her eyes.
Caesar wiped his forehead and slowly inserted himself. They both let out a moan of pleasure mixed with pain.
See where he says he going to get protection? Protection equals condoms. Okay I just had to clear that up...Chapter 18 up!
Chapter 18: Hello Baby?
The next morning…
It was a long long night at the hospital. Huey, Caesar and Cindy spent all night in ER. Hoping, praying, crying their eyes out hoping their friends and possible future family members would be okay.
"Well we've got some good news and some bad news." a doctor came from out of the ER. "Riley's ribs are severely damaged. It can take up from six months to a year to completely heal. Now the story with Miss Carmela…"
There was a long pause before the doctor spoke again…
"She's going to be okay. Only problem is she most likely won't ever be able to walk again."
"Whoa…" Cindy spoke out loud.
The gang all sighed as they thought of how wonderful their vacation to New York has been.
"This just-in!" the TV boomed. The gang all glanced over at the small TV hanging from the ceiling. "Two teenagers died last night at Prospect Park Zoo. Sources indicate that indeed the Bloods were involved in this massive shootout. The two killed however we're both a part of the notorious gang. Two other teenagers were also injured. We will keep you updated as the story progresses!"
The TV then was turned off by a bubbly Jazmine Dubois.
"Jazmine!" Caesar and Cindy yelled in unison. Huey just crossed his arms at her presence.
She giggled at Huey's actions. "Hey guys! Hey Huey!" she battered her eyelashes at him.
"So what was you trying to tell me last night?" he pulled her into his grip.
"Huey." she wrapped her arms around his neck. "I'm not going to have a baby!"
"Really?" a smile started to play across his lips.
"Yep, the doc says it was food poisoning that caused me to puke and I just kept eating weird foods because I thought I was pregnant."
"Hmm…I heard about that before. If a woman thinks she's pregnant, then she'll get the symptoms of a pregnant woman." he then kissed her on the forehead. She then got on her tippy-toes and brushed her lips against his. Just as Huey was going to allow Jazmine's tongue full access, Cindy cleared her throat.
"Alright now. We are in a hospital!" Cindy laughed, until Caesar came behind her and grabbed her chest.
She blushed and then backhanded him.
Everyone, even Caesar laughed.
Meanwhile in Carmela's mind…
Carmela found herself lying in a pool of her own blood and she was surrounded by darkness. She definitely wasn't at the zoo anymore. She felt her once warm body becoming cold quickly. Then an shadow of herself stood before her.
"Good job, chica!" the shadow spat. The shadow had the same exact body detail as Carmela, just it was completely black and had yellow eyes. "Thanks to you, Riley is really hurt."
"But I saved him…" Carmela cried to her dark side. "I killed that pendejo, Mario!"
"This all could have been easily avoided." the shadow floated upside down above Carmela. "You could have ignored Mario's phone calls."
"If I did." Carmela paused trying to hold some tears back. "Then he would have killed us…Mario is loco!"
"Carmela, it's time for change, let go of the past. Look forward into building your future with Riley Freeman."
"I love him so much. Mario only loved me for my vagina." Carmela said bluntly. "However Riley loves me for…"
"Who you are. DING DING DING!" Carmela's shadow finished the sentence. "Mela, I am proud of your noble sacrifice." for the first time the shadow smiled.
"Um…thanks?" Carmela asked with a hint of confusion in her voice.
"Thanks to you, Riley is still alive. Despite the fact you may never be able to walk again. You still will have Riley's love. That's all you're going to need soon." the shadow's voice echoed her last words.
'Why soon?' Carmela thought to herself.
"You will see, you're going to have a lot of reasonability very soon." the shadow said reading Carmela's mind. After saying her last sentence the shadow assimilated back with Carmela.
Back in Carmela's hospital room…
Carmela's crimson eyes shot open, only to be blinded by white light.
"She's awake…" the doctor grinned. "Welcome back!"
"Where's Esco?" she asked.
"Do you mean Mr. Riley Freeman?"
"Yes, doc."
"Oh." the doctor rubbed his chin. "He's in his room sleeping. He'll be released a lot earlier than you."
"How long am I here for?"
"About a month or two. Mr. Freeman can actually be transferred to the Woodcrest Memorial Hospital tonight."
"But I need to go back to Woodcrest with them!" she whined.
"I'm sorry but the hospital there doesn't have the state of the art technology we have. If you say here we can heal your legs completely." he then passed her some x-rays. "The bullets fractured your legs in four different places."
Carmela's jaw dropped. Things were looking pretty grim for her.
"Look on the bright side though." the doctor opened the door. "You have visitors."
Huey, Jazmine, Caesar and Cindy all walked into the room and sat around Carmela's bed.
"Carmela, thanks for-" Jazmine began to thank Carmela but was quickly cut off.
"Don't. I owed him." Carmela turned her head away from Jazmine's eyes to look out the window.
"So how are you?" Caesar said looking at Carmela's lower body which had two casts on her legs.
"I've been better, chico." Carmela cracked a small smile.
"Your bravery saved my brother and that makes me forever thankful." Huey bowed in front of Carmela.
"No thanks needed. As long as Riley is alright…" Carmela sighed as she closed her eyes and clutched her stomach.
The door then slowly opened to reveal Riley riding a wheelchair.
"Sup niggas?" he flashed his pearly whites for the first time in years. He always had his fronts on but since he got checked into the ER, the doctors forced him to take them off.
"Riley, you have pretty teeth. Don't ever put those fronts on again." Jazmine cooed.
"Oh hush…" Riley snickered. "Ayo fam, do yall mind if I get some alone time wit Mela?"
"Nope." they all replied like robots and left the room.
Now that there was alone, the two began to gently weep.
"Riley, I'm so glad you're okay." Carmela spoke softly, stroking Riley's hand.
"I'd hafta say the same for you too…" he looked at her casts.
"This is all my fault. I shouldn't have answered his calls!"
"Yea you shouldn't have." Riley took a deep breath. "Luckily I'm not the type of nigga to hold a grudge."
"So…" Carmela tried to change the subject. "What should we do with this alone time we got right now?"
"I mean what CAN we do? I can't bone ya, my ribs are still screwed up like a motherfucka and your legs are practically dead." Riley then head his head down. "Looks like I'll be jackin' off tonight…"
Carmela burst into laughter. "Esco, I didn't mean it like THAT!"
"I guess I'll be using Oil of Olay." Riley continued.
"Shut up!" Carmela said through her laughter. "I love you!"
"I love you too…"
Meanwhile at the LICH Food Court…
"I think we need to head back to Woodcrest. School is coming up sooner than I thought." Jazmine slurped on her Cherry Coke.
"We can't leave Carmela here though!" Cindy protested.
"I don't know about you guys, but I'm going back home." Huey played around in his salad. "I'm a senior with the number three rank. I need to get to one."
"Question though, who's number two, baby?" Jazmine teased, tracing her finger along Huey's chin.
"You." he muttered.
"I agree with Big Hue though." Caesar agreed. "I'm ranked one-hundred and three out of three-hundred and sixty-two. I want to improve."
"Yep you surely need to." Cindy giggled. "I'm always one step ahead of ya!"
"Shush! You're only ranked one-hundred and two."
"Still smarter than you…"
As the two continued to bicker, Jazmine and Huey sighed and began their own conversation.
"Huey, are we really going to leave without Carmela?"
"We have to. School starts in a couple of days. Plus our flight back leaves tonight. She'll be fine. This is her home."
"How about Riley? You know he's going to be loyal and stay by her side."
"His choice. He's going to end up failing his sophomore year."
"Unless he enrolls in a school around here somewhere." Jazmine stated in a matter of fact manner.
"Bingo!" Huey hugged his girlfriend tight. "That's a great idea. Riley can enroll at a local high school."
"And whenever Carmela is healthy again. They can come back to Woodcrest."
"But where's he gonna live now?"
"I have a distant cousin that lives in Elmont."
"Elmont?" Jazmine blinked absent mindedly.
"It's a small town in Long Island."
"Oh." Jazmine then slapped her forehead. "That's right. That's where Cindy moved to after eighth grade."
"So now that everything is covered, let's tell these two." he pointed at Caesar and Cindy who were still going at each other's throats.
"One-oh-two!"
"So what…I'm smarter than you, child. It's just I don't always do my work on time!" Caesar yelled. "If you compare our test scores they prove I got more brains!"
"One-oh-two! Higher GPA! Better looks!"
"Shut up! You're just a lucky dumb blonde."
"Am I really?" Cindy's voice cracked.
"Yes you are! I mean for all we know the transcript could have some typos! You know Principal Wuncler's secretary is a drunk!" he chuckled, not knowing his girlfriend's feeling were getting hurt.
"Michael…" she whispered, allowing a single tear to drop.
"Cindy!" he gasped. Caesar then scooped her up in his arms. "My bad, I thought we was jokin around…"
"Yea we was, but then you called me a dumb blonde. My dad use to always call me that before and after he'd beat me because mommy didn't PLEASE him." she cried into his chest.
"Uh Cindy…" Caesar rubbed her back. "I'm sorry." the two remained in silence in each other's brace.
Later that night, at Carmela's room…
"Ugh! I'm about to-" she quickly held her head up and threw up into a pail. Riley quickly woke up from his slumber in his wheelchair.
"You pukin again?" Riley asked while holding her hair up.
"Yes, baby…" Carmela spat into the pail. "Must be this damn hospital food!"
"Actually Ms. Rodriquez., I know why you're in this condition." the doctor came barging through the door. "Mr. Freeman, you might wanna sit back for this."
Meanwhile on the plane…
"I think I've had enough of the city never sleeps." Cindy sighed.
"Ditto. I mean its my home, but I'm use to my white suburbia." Caesar also sighed.
"Yes indeed." Huey added his two cents.
"Woodcrest here we come!" Jazmine pointed her index finger to the clouds outside the window.
"Take care." Huey closed his eyes. "Carmela and Riley." Huey then felt into a light slumber. Jazmine looked at her everything and smiled. They had come a long way since September. From hate to love, from pain to pleasure.
"I love you, Huey Freeman." she whispered as she traced her fingers on his chest.
"I love you too." Huey mumbled in his sleep.
A couple of days later at Wuncler High School…
"Hell unsweet hell…" Huey growled as he slammed his locker shut.
"Oh cheer up, honey!" Jazmine kissed Huey on the cheek.
"How can I be perky knowing I have a self-racist teacher that's blacker than ace of spades?"
"Good point." Jazmine smirked. She loved how he could always get his point across.
"Huey!" Cindy yelled from end of the hall. "C'mon we're going to be la-"
The bell chimed as it echoed through the halls.
"Shit." Huey cursed. "Now we're late…"
"Yes, and we'll be even later if you just stand here and complain about it!" Caesar said, coming from behind Huey.
"Let's go!" Cindy yelled down the hall once again, now stomping her left foot impatiently.
The four childhood friends all walked towards their destination.
"Well here we are." Huey said, placing his hand on the doorknob. After turning the knob slightly, the door flew open to reveal darkness.
Suddenly a lone light shined down on Uncle Ruckus.
"Well la de da de do! Looks like we got some late ass niggas. However the white gal is excused."
The group sighed. "Just another day…" They all said in unison.
Just as the four took their seats, the sounds of Hip Hop by Dead Prez filled the room. Huey rolled his eyes, wondering who could be calling him while he was in school. His Caller ID read 'Riley.'
"Uncle Ruckus? May I please be excused?"
"HELL NO! YO DISTORTED AFRO BEHIND WAS LATE TO MAH CLASS!"
"Fine then. I'll excuse myself." Huey then left to answer the call.
In the hallway…
"Riley, what's up?"
"Yo man…you ain't gonna believe this but-"
"But what?!"
"Carmela is going to have a baby!"
Silence entered the Freeman brothers souls.
"Riley, are you ready to raise a child?"
"I think I can do it. As long I got Carmela my side."
"And money and a job and…"
"Alright! I get it…shoot." Riley hissed.
"Riley, this is serious. Personally I think you two should give it to foster care."
"Foster care, my ass!" Riley yelled into the receiver. "I'm gonna raise my seed!"
"You're not ready. When I thought Jazmine was pregnant, even I knew I wouldn't be ready."
"I might not be ready, but I'm willin to raise my seed."
"Okay. Just please take care and come home soon." Huey spoke softly.
"Don't worry. Quit getting' so soft on me. Me and Mela will be home soon. Peace and I love ya man."
"Love ya too bro."
"Ya'll niggas is GAY!" a random kid in the hallway yelled.
Huey shot a glare at the kid and hung up his phone. He then walked back into the classroom to see the Preps arguing with his three friends. Letting out a deep sigh he muttered nine words.
"These are the Life and Times of Wuncler High…"
