"hey come on" "nope" the guys laughed as Zaire carried jaylah over his shoulder "I can walk" "no you can't. We have plans to throw you in" "damn it" the guys laughed as they got to the waters edge "you better get in too" "yeah I will" Zaire put jaylah down only for Tyson to pick her up and throw her in "I will kill you Tyson" the guys cracked up laughing before jumping in around jaylah 'ugh these guys' "fuck yes, how good is this" "surprised you can swim" "I will drown you" "nah but you can flip me" "alright, jump on" jaylah put her feet on emits shoulders and emit threw her backwards. Jaylah doing a flip, the guys grinned "it's good to be carefree" "not doing runs" "guns" "yep" "look I didn't do that shit" "the last one you did" "yep. How much would kalem love this place" "he was always carefree" jaylah chuckled "just like me, he didn't give two shits" "all of us. It's good to get out of there together though" "surprised Rey didn't come" "well after you left, Nicole told Jackson they are leaving" "you heard that too" "yep. And I heard a gun shot" "shit" "think he's alive?" "No. Rey didn't give a shit about them. We all agreed to stay because of you" jaylah grinned "softy" "piss off" "well that's just fucking rude".
"So where we thinking about a permanent residence?" "Can't be on the island" "no permanent residence here?" "I doubt it" "yeah and it would cost a fortune" "I have the money" "all of us have money but we need to live off of it too" "yeah that's true" swimming around for a couple of hours, all four got out. "hey, good to see those scars have faded" "give me a look" "he's just checking out your ass" the guys laughed.
"Nah they are good now" "took some time but yeah they are. We heading straight to the bar?" "You need to cover up" "why me?" "In a set of bikinis" "oh here we go, protective big brothers are at it" "could be some old man up there wanting a piece" "he can't have it, I need every piece of my body" the guys laughed "to your room" "argh, I may as well just get changed" "she's coming to her senses. Must be the fresh air" "piss off" "what was that?" Zaire grabbed jaylah making the guys laugh "damn you and your long arms" "sack of potatoes again?" "Seems that way. Ticklish Zaire?" "Not even close" "argh" the guys laughed.

"What is up with that?" "Seems like a normal thing for them" "you don't think they are after her?" "No. She calls them her brothers. Means they are her life" Bennett showed a slight nod "respect" "I agree". 'she is stunning woman. I can already tell she is carefree but has strength. I need to get to know those men. My guess is, I need to get near them to get near her'.

"All ready to go?" "Yep. Got cash on you?" "We all have cash on us" "drinks and cards?" "Sounds like a good time to me. How much up?" "A thousand" jaylah chuckled "I have enough" "we all in?" "Yep" "yep" "yep" "sweet let's go. Where we playing?" "We can play at the bar" "that's where you win right?" "Yep" "fuck" "nah I will take her money" "you cheat" "nah I don't" "liar".
Getting to the bar, jaylah chuckled "what has you laughing?" "Celena is on" "which one?" "Black hair".
When celena walked jaylahs way, she looked at the three guys "what can I get you all?" "Four scotches" "I can bring them out to you" "fine" "yep" "right" jaylah Chuckled "let's go get a table" "one of the round ones so this prick doesn't sneak peeks" jaylah copped a tap to the head from Zaire making her, Tyson and emit laugh "abusive" "you love it" "hate you too".
All taking a seat, Zaire grabbed out his deck of cards. "give me those you cheating ass" "so untrustworthy" jaylah smirked "oh you know what we can't do?" "what?" "Spike each other's drinks" everyone laughed "that's a kalem thing to do" "oh bullshit, we all did it" "so we need to buy a few bottles and drink in the room?" "Oh no we don't.." "jaylah. Men" "marshall. this is tyson, emit and Zaire. Guys, marshall. Owner" the guys all nodded "did she annoy you that much you couldn't forget her?" Jaylah smirked "I will make sure the bartenders spike ya damn drinks" the guys laughed "cards?" "Yep a thousand up" "as always" "this is the guy you kept beating?" "Him and Bennett" "I need to win my money back" "nah that money is funding our house" marshall sat down "best I lose then" "yep" Zaire, Tyson and emit let a small laugh slip. "No cheating Zaire" "I didn't cheat. You just got that blind, you couldn't tell a heart from a diamond" "he totally spiked my drinks" "like you didn't".
"Your scotches. Marshall, can I get you anything?" Jaylah smirked "a scotch" "yes marshall" "yes marshall" jaylah laughed as marshall smirked "I can see why your four are related" "we adopted her" "who adopted me?" "Okay kalem did. You had no choice in it" "not even close. The bastard kept sitting on my paperwork" "he knew you needed a break. Being couped up in the office all the time" "whether I was in the office or not, he didn't care. Did he actually work?" The guys laughed "yep but as soon as he got back, he would go straight to you" "now look you are stuck with us" "fuck my life" Tyson tapped jaylahs head as the guys laughed "argh, annoying sacks of shit" "want me to throw you back in that water?" "Tomorrow. Im busy right now" "don't tempt him". "Playing cards again?" "That's Kalem right?" Jaylah chuckled "the annoying side kick? Yep" Bennett smirked "for that Im taking your money" "doubt it" Zaire laughed "kalem should not have taught you how to play" "had to do something in that house" "cards and drink?" "Yep while these three were off trying to get killed" "still alive" "I don't know if that's a good or bad thing" "just you wait until tomorrow".
"A hundred in?" "Yeah I'm happy with that" "yep" "yep" "alright" "yeah" all putting a hundred in, Zaire dealt out the cards.
"Argh, they are still here" "who?" "Those four" the guys looked around "nah not your type" "eww" "they won't touch you" "damn right they won't. Check" "check" "check" "check" "yeah check" 'a queen and seven' 'six, nine and Jack. Fuck' Zaire put another card down 'eight' "check" "check" "check" "check" "check" "check" when zaire put the last card down jaylah internally grinned "check" "check" "check" "check" "check" "check. Face up" everyone putting their cards down, Zaire hit jaylah "bitch" "is that how he hits on you?" "Only way he can. It's incest" "well this is definitely an upgrade to hallway poker" "hallway poker?" the guys laughed as marshall and Bennett looked at all four of them "this one had to get Lazer treatment done and couldn't wear clothes for two days. Kalem and I were bored so we sat in the hallway playing cards under the door" Bennett and marshall both smirked "wouldn't let them in?" "Hell no. Plus kalem was my body guard" "body guard?" "Oh he was more protective of her than all of us combined. Did anyone tell you what happened when you were accused?" "What? No" Tyson shook his head "he lost his absolute mind.." "that's normal" emit shook his head "oh nah it was bad. He shot Greg. Destroyed the fucking kitchen.." jaylah chuckled "Greg was no fucking loss" "wanker".
"Do any of you have anything on you?" "Nope. Couldn't catch a flight with them" "what did you three do?" "Cells and runs" "runs" "runs" "and now?" "Nope" "nuh-uh, I'm getting myself a woman" "he totally slept in your bed" "I didn't" the guys laughed "so you flew back and came back the same night?" "All hell broke loose. Her brother started shit.." jaylahs eyes went wide as she stood up "jaylah?" "CLYDE" the guys all grinned seeing Clyde. Jaylah walked his way and wrapped her arms around him "I had a feeling this would be the island" "fuck, I didn't think you'd come" Clyde pulled away "I couldn't stay jaylah. They killed Rey" jaylah put her head down and Clyde pulled her close "so I came for an adventure. Plus it looks like I'm missing a game and drinks" jaylah nodded as she pulled away "let me introduce you" "the mob boss right?" Jaylah chuckled "yep and his right hand man".
"Good to see ya here Clyde" "you guys too. Rey's down" all men took a deep breath "yeah.. we guessed that already".
"Clyde this is marshall and Bennett. He's another kalem" "annoying?" "Yep" everyone laughed "another brother?" "A friend" marshall Internally grinned "anymore?" "None" "nope" "hell no" jaylah chuckled.
