~ ~ Chapter Twenty Six ~ ~

Twenty Six. Twenty six males were killed tonight, I would have said men but some were barely out of high school and ready to kill us. Two died by me and twenty two by Baden. Honestly, I know he did that on purpose, he was hogging and I knew why. He didn't want me to be some cold hard killer for some reason but what he wants doesn't matter. The damage is already done, I have already killed and still - I feel no remorse over it.

We were about a block away from Phil and Dougy's place when he spoke to me again, he has finally calmed down and had been holding me the entire way, rubbing small soothing circles on the back of my hand with his thumb while he concentrated on the road and also, this time I wasn't fearing a crash.

"You can't tell anyone about Eddie Leila." Baden muttered in a steady voice but it was no longer filled with anger and didn't send my heart thumping wildly from fear of what he could do - not to me but other people.

"I already figured as much." I murmured with a small smile playing in the corner of my lips. I don't know why but it was obvious Eddie didn't want anyone knowing where he is; maybe the rundown dump of a house is evidence of that.

"Around the time I first met you, he sort of let himself out of prison. Don't ask me how he did it because I had no idea he was even planning it, let alone how he pulled it off." Baden smirked slightly as he shook his head in a playful way, shaking his dark hair into his eyes once more.

"I heard one reason as to why he was in there." My voice quiet and soft.

Baden raised an eyebrow and turned to look at me briefly before turning his attention back onto the road where it should belong, "Oh. It's probably true; he got put away for a few different reasons with a life sentence and no chance of parole."

Nodding slowly, it didn't matter to me what Eddie did or how he escaped, it was none of my business to start off with but I know one thing for sure - if Baden was to ever got locked up again, I'd be asking Eddie how he did it.

While we were on the subject of prison it made me think of Dougy again, I haven't given him much thought recently but I think I can be forgiven considering what has been happening around here but now that I am thinking about him, "I want to go visit Dougy tomorrow."

"No." Came Baden's blunt and instant reply.

Frowning as I turned my head to face him, he kept his eyes glued on the road, refusing to look at me, "Why?" it came out as a demand when I hadn't intended it too but I wasn't taking it back now.

"Because, I'm not letting you walk into a room full of criminals, they are bad people Leila." He sounded so serious, so strict and so hypocritical that I had to laugh. Big bad Baden who is a criminal for a living is telling me that I can't be around his own kind because they are bad people?

"Look, I love you, you know I do but you can't boss me around. Dougy is my brother and I will go see him if I want to."

We pulled into a small area full of large two story units with plenty of parking space. I noticed Caveman's car already under one of the carports and Phil's car was under the second one, and then off to the side of the house, under a big tree was Dougy's car with one of the plastic car covers over it.
