All five of us sit around the living room. Niall, Louis, and I on the couch, Zayn on the small chair, and Keiren on the floor in front of the telly.

"So miss.Bradford Badass, where've you been?" Zayn laughs

I smile, missing his humorous nickname that he made up the first day we met, "Back home in Bradford, just getting my head straight I guess."

"You know, gangs talk Harley. We know you were fooling around with Leo Vince, how serious were you?" Zayn asks

"He gave me a talon necklace, but we're over now..." I look to the ground in obvious discomfort, not because the boys make me uncomfortable, but just because the subject does

"Damn." Keiren sighs

"What?" I ask, looking at him in confusion

"That's some serious shit... Normally when someone breaks it off with a member of a gang they're found dead not even a week later to prevent any gang secrets getting around." Zayn explains nervously

"Leo didn't tell me anything about TEK." I shrug

The boys nod their heads as if they trust me, but I know they have their doubts.

"How'd you get here?" Louis asks

"I was in town."

"Harry said you got taken, obviously you weren't 'just in town' Harley." Louis presses for an answer

"Queens kidnapped me just to offer me a position for third in command." I say as though it's totally normal, I suppose this is normal though. This has become my life, being kidnapped, shot, and threatened by gangs has become a routine for me... but the sad part is I've come to expect it. I remember when I got the first threatening text from Devils, I broke down and cried. Now, I would probably laugh and delete it. How pathetic.

"Queens?" Niall asks

I nod, "Yes Queens."

"Harley you need to stay off of the streets for a bit, no going anywhere alone at anytime. One of us will always be with you, stay out of Bradford. You'll be staying here in the guest bedroom with me like before." Louis commands

I scoff, "I'm actually catching the afternoon bus to Bradford. I'll be fine."

"Then I'm going to Bradford with you, Harley, Queens seems innocent but their as deadly and connected as any other rival gang in Bradford. Nicole seems kind but if you're on her bad side she makes Rocky look like a unicorn shitting rainbows." Louis informs me

I sigh, I hate being treated like a damsel in distress.

"Fine. I'll stay in Doncaster, but if I get annoyed with any of you following me, I'm leaving." I warn

They all nod and give some kind of response meaning they agreed.

"Can we get pizza for dinner?" Niall whines

"We had pizza last night Niall!" Keiren groans

"Exactly, pizza every night sounds good to me." Niall laughs

I shake my head and smile, "I want to fight tonight."

All four boys look at me in confusion, until Zayn's lips curve into a smile, "There just so happens to be one tonight in Doncaster. Everyone will be there."
