"Pierce, please I'm trying to study." I let out an aggravated sigh as my eyes flickered upward from the white-colored pages of my textbook. Pierce approached closer to me, sliding the textbook out from my lap and throwing it to the side.
"Take a bre...

"I am sorry to call you all here, but this was an urgent matter." Xander explained "And I'm sure you all notice that we are not in our usual warehouse meeting spot, and instead are at my house. Although I'm afraid to say both of these locations are compromised."
It was about two hours later from when everything had gone down. We showed the note to Xander and he immediately called in Archer. My mother, Xander, and Archer then went to discuss what would apparently be best for our safety. I couldn't help but feel bad, once again dragging everybody into this situation because of my insane ex-boyfriend who doesn't know how to let go of shit.
"Rain and Ryker Anderson from the Crusades gang paid us a visit today, one of their members spotted Cayde Matthews out, and nearby here. Some things fell out of his pocket when he went to grab his wallet according to the Crusades member. What fell out was a pearl necklace which Ashlynn confirmed to be hers as well as a crumpled up piece of paper." Xander explained, his eyes looking over to all of us.
"On the paper had Aspen and Pierce's apartment number, Aster's mechanic shop address, Xander's house address, Aspen's school schedule broken down by times and where she would be which was followed by the words "Sullivan info." Deliah Hall's number and address were also provided on the paper, Gunner's aunt. And lastly Pierce's old psychiatrist and his phone number." Archer narrowed his eyes "Now there are a few things that are suspicious including that Sullivan was written on the paper and how they got Ashlynn's necklace."
"You're not seriously accusing me of talking to Cayde Matthews?" Mercury spoke up bluntly "Drop the act guys, we all know what we're thinking and it wasn't me. For Christ's sake, I don't even know Aspen's school schedule let alone where she'd be on campus at specific times. I'm not obsessed with her."
"Debatable," I muttered under my breath, knowing Mercury was in fact obsessed with me and every part of my life. Mercury's head snapped over to mine, her lips pursed "Excuse me? I am not obsessed with you Ambrosia, you think you're the hottest shit but when in reality you're shit."
"Ladies!" Archer yelled, "I don't think this is the moment to be doing this."
Mercury and I both dropped the topic before turning our attention back to them. The entire gang had to come, except for Harley who had been at the hospital with Reese. "Ok so what now? Matthews is a threat, so what are we going to do about it if he has all our addresses?" Aster spoke up as he stood up from his seat.
"We're going to North Carolina. There's a beach called Kill Devils Hill, there's a house that we have rented and will continue to rent till we are safe. I do not want you guys to think we are running away from Cayde, the Coinstons, and the Vipers-we are simply going to leave till will formulate a plan. We can not stay here due to our locations being known. We leave first thing tomorrow, for all of you that are missing school I will have my friend that's a doctor to write you a medical excuse so you will not be punished by the college." Xander explained, "You may all be excused, please begin packing."
