baby steps

~~~small time skip~~~

Maxine POV

                   Iris parks the motorcycle and we walk into the jail...

I: max are you sure we should take two at once?

M: yeah but only this time since it's the two easier ones that are left once they're taken care of Sam, Gemma, Shatter and... *sigh* Ruby won't be nearly as easy

I: why'd you sigh? i thought you didn't hate them

M: i don't, i don't it's just... everyone else has at least ONE person who can get to them... for shatter and gemma we have to break one of em free without the others' help... and then for ruby... well i don't actually know if we have someone... strong enough

                      I remember seeing violet going up to rubys' cell but like violet did that for everyone... she checked up on everyone because that's the type of person she is... I'm not so sure if she'd even be up for trying to help ruby... which, I'm scared to but... i wanna do it. Everyone deserves to be free from Virus... i have to try my best

I: well... as you tell me, baby steps... we don't need to think about that right now

M: yeah-

H: hey guys

                   We turn around and see Lexi and Hope walking up...

I: hello

M: hey guys...

                    I look at lexis' neck, she notices and quickly pops her jacket collar up but i already say it

M: *chuckle* well someone had fun last night?

I: who?

                    Oh innocent Iris... i love that woman

H: oh nothing, lexi and i played some video games last night is all 

                   Hope smacks Lexis' ass making her blush and look away                   

L: y-yeah well *clears throat* w-whatever let's focus on that task at hand

M: right

I: where's Angel? and Barbie? we kind of need them to do this

F: i'm sure they'll turn up soon

H: hey faith, jade

J: hey

M: you two don't need to be here yanno, neither do lex, and hope

J: we know

F: they're our friends too max

L: yeah besides we wouldn't want you having all the fun

F: also, max... are you sure you can handle this?

                               What is that supposed to mean?

L: we just don't wanna see you more hurt

H: *gulp*... yeah i uh... maybe you should sit these out i mean you could go sing at the broken bottle like you said we don't all need to be here-

M: nah I'm good. i can help

I: max-

M: i want to help... okay?

I: okay

L: sorry max

M: it's fine

Amy POV

                 I'm on break so i decided to run home real quick for some leftovers to have for lunch. As I'm riding my skateboard over i see Olives' car in the driveway... also what? did you expect a motorcycle? nah i only use that for long drives anyways, i stop by her place and knock on the door... the door opens, she looks pretty bummed out

A: aye olive, what you doing home so early?

O: *looks down*

A: ... it's serious ain't it?

O: *shrugs* 

A: wanna talk about it?

O: -_-

A: oh right sorry *chuckle* but like do you?

O: *sigh*... *nods* 

A: alright 

                        I walk in, sit on the sofa and pat my lap. They sit on it and she hugs me... it is serious. She cries and i rub circles into her back

A: hey hey it's okay, I'm here bud

                       I lean back onto the sofa and just stay quiet... eventually she pulls away

A: better?

O: *nods*

A: here, write everything

                     I had her a notebook and pen she had on sofa. She takes a minute to write and then hands me it

A: "don't get mad"... this oughta be good... "brad was mad, he's scary, jenna told me it's best to come home" *sigh* damn that kid's a fucking jerk

O: *shakes head*

A: olive... he's a fucking jerk
