"What the fuck are you doing here? There is no fucking way you are coming with us, fuck off."
My idiotic brother was stood in front of me in a deep navy suit and tie, with a bouquet of red and black roses. His bright white hair was jelled back in some sort of pompadour style. To me, he just looked like a douche.
"I didn't get dressed up for nothing, do you think she'll like the flowers. I thought I would get some black to match her heart... I'm joking dude don't hit me."
"Leave now, don't you have a wife and child to go back to?"
He stepped inside ignoring any word I said to him, "Oh so you do remember them dear brother, but no I found out she has been cheating on me. Willow will be coming over for the holidays but enough of that. Noah will be there tonight, Hope needs as many people with her as possible." I slammed the door.
"How the fuck do you know everything about Noah, are you working for him?" I asked angrily, he raised his hands in the air.
"I'm not an idiot and I wouldn't betray Hope, what I did years ago was an accident. I was upset and wanted a fuck that's all and I paid for the consequences don't you think? I know because Noah has got one massive army, haven't you noticed small gangs around the area aren't around anymore? Them rats aren't loyal, they just go wherever is bigger and better."
Noah can't be that powerful, can he? I'm glad I told Callum to come tonight to keep an eye on things. I have no idea who else is coming but I best go prepared, just in case everything turns to pot.
You never know with a room full of killers.
I pinched the bridge of my nose with a huff, "Alright you can come, but if you spot Callum don't tell Hope and just don't ask me why. Have you got a gun?"
He smiled and patted his side, "I never leave home without it brother, so when is Hope getting here? I'm starving and even if these things are shit, they always serve the best food."
I was about to leave him but the doorbell rang, I pulled Caleb back by his collar just as he tried to make his way to the door to answer it. When I opened it Hope was stood there looking radiant in her silver dress that hugged her like a glove. Her eyes shined brightly, and her skin looked to be glowing.
"You had sex."
"Did you used makeup to cover your bruises?" She asked smirking.
"I take it you made up then? Good, now I don't need to look at him all day whilst he sulks like a sad lost puppy."
She turned around and walked down the path completely ignoring what I said. Caleb was just stood there with his mouth hanging wide, and his eyes trailing after her.
"Hurry up boys or I am leaving without you, and Caleb?" She said just as she made it to the limo, her driver opening the door for her.
He perked up next to me, and she glanced over her shoulder to look at us, "Don't sit next to me, and pick your jaw up off the floor."
