I still don't own anything in this story. You know other then the characters I have created. Enjoy and review, please...
It was 3 weeks after the get together and Leon and Charlize's engagement. Everything was fine. Vince brought more of his stuff to Lanie's house and started to work on his house with her when they had time off. Everything was great. They even did a couple songs together.
"Yo, Leon. Have you seen V? He was suppose to meet me at the house but he isn't here." Lanie said calling her brother as she got home from work.
"Naw. He left the garage bout 2 hours ago. Said he was going to your house." Leon said.
"Really? Alright. I'll call his phone again."
"Call me when you find him." He said hanging up. Lanie called his phone two more times before changing and going to his place on the beach. The closer she got the more she felt uneasy. She pulled up and saw his car. She got out of the car and walked up to the door only to see Vince on the beach with another girl in front of him, doing a striptease. He was even encouraging her. Then she saw him pick of a mirror and put his nose up to it.
"Found your friend." Lanie said to her brother on the phone as she walked back to her car.
"Where is he? Wait you said my friend. Not your boyfriend. What the hell is going on?" Leon demanded
"I don't want to talk about it right now. Your friend is alive for now." She said hanging up and throwing the car in reverse and peeling out. She got to the bar and immediately found her band and Dita.
"Hey girl. Where's your man meat?" Sierra asked with a smile. That was till she saw the look on Lanie's face. "What's wrong?"
"Don't worry about it." She snapped. "Sorry. It's just not a good night."
"Well get yourself a beer and settle down." Sean said with a easy going smile.
"I'm not drinking. The last thing I need right now is alcohol." She said from her seat between Sean and David.
"Umm seriously what's going on? Why is V walking in with that ho?" Dita asked as she watched Vince walked over to them with an arm slung around Donna.
"That would be a better question to ask him." Lanie said with a blank look on her face.
"Hey." Vince said with a big smile. "What's up guys? You know my girl Donna here."
"Really? Your girl huh?" Dita said sending death rays at the "couple".
"That's what he said." Donna said with a satisfied smirk.
"Funny how she had to get him high for him to say she was his girl." Lanie said. "Well not really funny as much as sad."
"Mad I took him from you?" Donna said ready for a fight.
"Evidently I never had him. Probably for the best anyways." She said with a smirk.
"Whatever lets you sleep at night."
"At least I can sleep knowing I still have my dignity. I don't have to get a man high or drunk to be with me." Lanie said impassive or at least on the outside she was impassive but on the inside all she wanted to do was scream.
"What is she talking about Vince? What are you high on?" Dita asked.
"I don't know what the hell she is talking about. I'm not on shit. She obviously has issues about me going back to a great girl like Donna." Vince said not phased by what's going on.
"He is on cocaine. I saw him sniff some at the house I was helping fix up." She said. "Coulda at least had the decency to breakup with me first instead of having sex with me last night but whatever."
"Get over it. He never wanted you. You were never good enough and never will be." Donna said in a vicious voice.
"You guys need to just settle down. Lanie, you need to stop starting fights with Donna." Vince said pulling up a chair and sitting down.
"I can't believe…" Dita yelled.
"You going to take that, Lanie?" Sierra asked looking outraged.
"Take what?" Lanie said yawning.
"We need to talk." Sierra said grabbing her and dragging her to the bathroom. Shortly behind them was Dita.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Dita asked as they pushed their way into the bathroom.
"I'm not giving him or that whore the satisfaction of seeing me hurt." Lanie said staring up at the ceiling trying not to cry.
"How did she manipulate him so well? She made him relapse and forget about you in one fell swoop." Dita said shaking her head.
"Vince and me were pretty serious. He pretty much moved in with me. I mean did he get like cold feet or something? But how could that be? I never once brought up us being anymore." Lanie said
"Are you going to tell your bro?" Sierra asked leaning against a sink.
"I should. His sister needs to know too. Actually the better idea would be to bring them here." Lanie said
"Do it. He needs to be outed." Dita said. Lanie whipped out her phone and hit her brothers number on speed dial.
"You going to tell me what the hell is going on?" Leon demanded without even saying hello.
"Get your ass to VOC bar. Vince is here with Donna. Apparently they are back together."
"He's back on drugs isn't he?" Leon asked signaling to Charlize to follow him to the car.
"Well he definitely ain't sober ." Lanie said.
"We'll be there." He said starting up the Skyline and peeling out of the driveway as he hung up.
"What's going on?" Charlize said knowing something wrong was going on by the way he was driving.
"Donna has Vince wrapped around her finger again." He said weaving in and out of traffic. When they got to the bar Dita met them outside.
"You Leon and Charlize?" She said walking to the car as they got out.
"Yea. Who are you?" Charlize asked confused.
"I'm Dita. I play in a band, at least for the moment, with Vince. Lanie wanted me to meet you guys out here. Come on." She said after shaking there hands.
"Hey. What are you two doing here?" Vince asked with a goofy look on his face.
"Look at me." Charlize said pushing Donna off Vince's lap and getting in his face. A second later all that was heard in the bar was a loud open handed slap. Everything stopped and everyone stared.
"What the hell is the matter with you?" Vince roared jumping up and whipping the blood that started to come out of his lip.
"I'd like to ask you the same thing. You said you were done with the drugs and this little trick. Yet here you are high and being manipulated by said trick. I thought you were better then that. In the process you cheat on the best girl you could possibly have. You are so damn stupid." Charlize yelled getting in Vince's face.
"You touch her and you will be in a whole lotta pain." Lanie said getting in Donna's way before she could get near Charlize.
"Why you give a damn? Ain't like she gonna be your sister in law." Donna said laughing.
"Considering my brother is marrying her, she is still gonna be my sister in law. You act like your ass is gonna be around for awhile. If Vince cheated on me, he for damn sure going to cheat on you." She said calmly.
"Vince, you are coming with us now." Leon said trying to remain calm "Charlize will take your car home."
"I'm a grown ass man. I'll drive myself home. Come on Donna." Vince said trying to side step Charlize.
"That ho is not coming into the house and you lost the right to call yourself a grown ass man when you let her throw some stupid game in your head." Charlize said taking the keys out of his pocket before he even noticed.
"And how am I suppose to get home?" Donna whined.
"Like you always do. Stand on the corner and what for a dumb man to pick you up." Lanie said as Leon dragged Vince out the bar.
"You are going to pay for this." Donna threatened before running out the bar.
"What are you going to do now?" Sierra asked hugging Lanie.
"I'm going to go home and pack. I need to get away from that drama and get my head straight. I'll go to Boston for a bit and chill with my ma and Fred. We don't have any shows soon." She said with a shrug.
"How about instead of going to Boston we take a little trip to Europe. We'll go to Greece for a week or whatever and just be relaxed." Sierra said knowing that Greece cheers Lanie up just as much as a new car.
"You know what that sounds awesome." Lanie said forcing a smile.
