So I'm going to give Lauren her point of view since she had made a deal in the last chapter so it will make sense. Hope y'all like it! 😁
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lauren version
I was afraid, scared mostly. I agreed to Dylan, Gerald and the police to get Ashley arrested and rescue Suzanne. After we left the residence, Ashely didn't want to take care of her. She was ready to kill her but I had the guts to stop her, Suzanne is a innocent baby. Whatever Ashely had against Dylan and Gerald is just with them not her. I took care of her most of the time. I didn't say anything to Dylan of how i actually protected her daughter from Ashely nonsense.

We arrived to the abandoned building. Two policemen were inside of the van. I parked the van a block away so they can install the hidden camera. But one of the guys was cute actually cute. "So how does all of this work? Officer.."
"Call me Michael. And this a wireless camera with audio. This I can place it on one of the bottom of you blouse and she won't know a thing." He smiled at me. "You think this will work?"
"Yeah. I know this place and how does it work around." One of the other Officer left to inform the other van hiding that we were ready. "So I was thinking maybe when this is all over maybe we should get to know each other?" I gave him a smile
"Look you seem like a very beautiful girl but you're arrested basically a criminal."
"No, I made a deal with the Gillums and Officer Harris."
"And what deal was it that you made? I'm just curious."
"If this go according to plan, the Gillums will pay 85k, and to Officer Harris, I have to serve community service and pay a fine instead of serving time in jail."
"Oh." He finished it and type in the computer to active the camera "and how did you end up in this mess? Because a beautiful girl like you shouldn't be in this mess."
"Well my best friend Ashley I think you may know her as her stage name Halsey wanted revenge herself to the Gillums especially Gerald or known as G-Eazy. So she force me to be in this mess if not she would of killed me if I didn't do it."
"Well honestly she isn't your best friend if she's forcing you to do something that you know is illegal and that can get you in trouble with the law. And also the Gillums seem good people to be around with. That's the kind of people you should be with not her."
"Yeah you can say that after Dylan slapped me because I was acting up as a bitch." We both laughed
"Here's my deal and I hope you don't break it."
"Did I break this one?"
"No, you didn't. If this doesn't become as a swat team arriving or having police chaos I want to talk you somewhere nice here in Oakland or Berkeley."
"Are you asking me on a date?"
"Yes, if you don't get arrested at some point afterwards."
"Yes. I would love to go to this date. And did I ask you first?" He smirks. Then the policemen came in the van.
"We're ready to go." We both look at each other
"Let's do this." They both hide in between the baby supplies I bought from the store before I got arrested. I went to the driver seat and turn on the car. I drove to the entrance. I recognize it wasn't one of the guys that Ashely hired. It was Officer Harris. I give him my ID, he reads it. "you screw this, remember we got a cell just for you ready."
"I won't screw up."
"Better." He gives back my ID. I continue driving then i parked the car. I took a deep breath. I walked inside. Ashley was there smoking a cigarette. Suzanne was in her crib. I ran quickly to take away the cigarette from Ashley mouth and to keep her away. "How many times I told you not to smoke in front of the baby?!"
"Since when do you care?"
"You know second hand smoke? It can damage her health."
"Boo hoo." Then she got up. "Hey have you seen the men I hired? I haven't seen them after they left to celebrate."
"No, you know I just came back from the store." I sat down and put back in her crib.
"That's long it took you? To get what I told you to get. Damn!"
"Yeah and plus today many people were grocery shopping." I said without telling her that I was arrested. "I have the supplies in the van if you want me to go get them."
"Nah, just sit here and stay. No wait put the baby back in that same room. She gets in my nerves just like her mother." She said in a disguise.
"Okay." I carry Suzanne. I walked in the other room and put her in the other crib. I closed the door and whispered to her "Suzanne, I'm helping your mommy and daddy to rescue you." I teared up again "I'm sorry I had to do this to you guys. It's all my fault. You guys are innocent people that we shouldn't fucked around with. Please forgive one day." I kissed her forehead. "You're so kind like your parents. They are so lucky to have you."
"Lauren!" Ashley yelled.
"Coming!" I put her in the crib. I left the door open and left where Ashely was. "What's up?"
"I was thinking of something."
"What is it that you were thinking of?" I sat down in the chair.
"I'm thinking to propose a deal with Gerald and Dylan?"
"What deal?"
"I give them their baby back, in exchange Dylan will be my slave for life or Gerald and I will leave Oakland, move to New Jersey get married and have kids."
"Wait but you said you can't stand children?"
"No i meant I can't stand Gerald and Dylan's child."
"Wait, but if that happens, Suzanne will be raised by only one parent."
"Huh, never knew it was going to be a great idea. See imma a genius." Then I thought of the plan. "I texted Gerald the deal that I'm proposing and if he to come alone not bringing his wife."
"Oh, should I get the stuff out from the van?"
"Yeah, since she's gonna be staying for a while."

I got up from the chair and walked out the building. I opened the van. I nodded my head. It was time. Police began to circle around the building. Then I see Gerald walking in to the building Gerald "where are you going?"
"She wants to talk and make a deal to rescue my daughter. So I'm going in."
"Wait she doesn't mean what she texted you." He stopped and turned around
"Lauren cut it with the bullshit. You already fucked up once. You really have the eager to go to jail?"
"I'm serious. She proposing a deal."
"What deal since you supposedly know of that I don't know."
"She is offering an exchanges. If you give Dylan up for Suzanne's life, your wife will be her slave for life or if you give up your life to get married with her, giving her kids and moving to New Jersey for your daughters life but..." he cuts me off
"Then Suzanne will be raised by one parent not both." He stops for a second "how do I know it's not a trap? And is my daughter okay?"
"Yes she's okay. I've been taking care of her while she was crying." He scoffed "I'm serious. When Ashely wanted to kill her so many times I had to stop her because I knew this what I done was wrong and I should never done this in the first place. Like I apologize to Suzanne and now I want to apologize to you and Dylan for those shitty actions I did."
"It's fine. For now. I have to get my daughter." He walks in the door leading to Ashely.

Twenty minutes past, nothing has happened. Then Dylan runs to the door "Lauren what the fuck!"
"You can't go in there. You will get yourself killed or Gerald."
"I thought you were helping us, but no this was one of your traps."
"It's not. If she finds out that you're she will.." she cuts me off
"You know what I'm going in." She runs in there. Not even five minutes I hear gunshots. Police went inside. Michael got me and took me inside of the cop car. After that i didn't know what happened.

We arrived at the station but this time I wasn't there with the police handcuffed. I didn't know if Suzanne was rescued, but hope she's okay. "Coffee." Michael offers me. He take me off from my deep thinking
"Um thanks." I received the coffee. He sits next to me. "is everything okay? What happened?"
He smiles at me "that's classified information."
"Oh." Then I see James, Mia and Anthony. Anthony sees me with disguise. I see them impatient. "I just have no question. Is Suzanne okay?"
"Just watch." I seen Mia ask on the the Officers. Then they gave Suzanne back to them safe and sound. Just like how Dylan and Gerald wanted. They knew what happened afterwards but no one wanted to tell me. "Does that answer your question."
"She's safe with her family. What happened to the Gillums? Are they okay?" He got quiet "tell me!"
"Mrs Gillum got shot on her chest and went to the hospital in a critical condition and Mr Gillum is fine."
"She took a bullet for him."
"Yeah, she loves him. And that love will do anything to protect him even take a bullet to the chest."
"This is all my fault."
"It's not. You helped them save their daughter. All we got to do is pray for Mrs Gillum life." He grabs my hand "but are we still on for this date?" I reacted fast. I kissed him "is that a yes?"
I giggled a little bit "sorry." I blushed a little bit "yes it's still a date." He smiled at me

Gerald version
We arrived at the building. We were in a white van, a few blocks away from the building that gave a good view of it. It was old. Lauren was right, just an abandoned building for a crazy, maniac person just as Ashley. "They're preparing Lauren to send her in." Officer Harris said
"This is where all long Suz was." Dylan said "I just want her with me again."
"It will happen." I hugged her. Then kissed her forehead. An officer knocked.
"Were ready. Let's pull in and get the team ready."
"Let's ready to rock and roll!" Officer Harris said. We followed Lauren. We went around the building where Lauren told us to be since she knew the whole place. Then I received a message:

Unknown: okay here's a deal.

"Yo guys I got something." Everyone looked at me. I should them. I gave my phone to Officer Harris. He connects to the computer to track it down. Then it was Ashley's.
"Wait until she texts you back."
"She wants something from us." Five minutes passed I get another message from her:

Unknown: come alone. We need to discuss a deal that I'm proposing to you if you want to see your child back and alive. And if you bring your wife or the police, I'm gonna have to kill her myself.

I looked at Dylan. "What?" She takes the phone away from my hands and sees the message "please tell me your not going in there."
"I have to. That's the only way to get Suz back." I kissed her. "I'll be back and stay here."
"Mr Gillum!" Officer Harris stopped me before I get out of the van "you can't go in there."
"I have to go alone, don't bring police in the building til I come out." I get out of the van. I began walking. Lauren tried to stop me from going in and saying it was one of Ashely traps.

I sat down in one of the chairs. Ashley begins and tries to seduce me. Try again cause that's not going to work. She tells me the same thing as Lauren said. I had one decision to choice that can save my daughter and my wife's life. Then I hear the door open. "Gerald!" I got up. I seen Dylan.
"Well, well, well. I guess we got the whole family for the death party." She laughed
"Where is my daughter?" I walked to Dylan
"Baby, please calm down." I tried to relax her "go back to the car, wait for me there. I'm getting back Suz."
"Do you think I'm going to believe you especially when you're with this hoe! right now!"
"Please."
"Aw you really think of me like that." She laughed then pulled out a gun and pointed at Dylan "Aw why so quiet now." She went closer to her. I seen cops coming in. A group went to the one room that the door was open. Then i seen Suz. She was very quiet. I smiled at her. Then I turned back to Dylan shaking and fearing for her life. "Oh this, this is one of my new toy. Yup this can go through anywhere in the human body just with a click of this trigger."
"Ashley stop!"
"So what will it be Gerald. Your choice. You come with me to finish my Summer Tour and live a married life as a REAL couple in New Jersey. And we can have our adorable kids or I shoot your wife."
"You told me something different."
"Well I change my mind since she got me pissed off." Dylan teared up. Then Officer Harris came walking quietly. "Goodbye Dylan." Her ginger pressed the click of the gun. I push Ashley to aim somewhere else but I was to late. Dylan was shot in the chest. Ashley fell. As she was getting the gun, Officer Harris kicked her back, kicked the gun away from her, stepped on her hand. She got both of her arms. I went to get Dylan before she hit the floor. "Dylan, You're okay." My clothes were stained with blood.
"Ashely Frangipane, you are under arrested." Then he sees Dylan bleeding and sees me putting pressure to stop the bleeding "we need an ambulance. One person down and needs medical attention ASAP. Copy" he talked over the thing. "Keep pressure on it."
"It's on her chest. I'll carry her out the building."
"To risky mr Gillum. Just keep her awake." He takes Ashely to the door and two other officers came running to me. "Sir talk to her."
"She needs to be awake." One Officer told me
"Dylan, stay awake. We got Suz. Babygirl, be awake."
"Help is one the way." Officer Harris came back to the building.

I seen the night getting dark after the salvation.
