"What the hell Adenna" DJ says walking towards me with burning eyes "What DJ I wasn't just going to do nothing," I say crossing my arms "You are pregnant Adenna you can't be so fucking reckless," he says and I feel my anger rising "First of all I'm not even that far along and second of all don't be cussing at me I have told you once and I will not tell you again" I growl "Trent take the boys inside," DJ says staring holes into my soul.
"Boys go with Trent," I say returning his stare. Once I hear the door shut, DJ sighs, "You can not be reckless Denna. He was reckless and look where that got him" DJ whispers, "I....I couldn't protect him and I'll be damned if I let anything happen to you or the baby and the boys" he says looking down and then I hear a sniffle. "I couldn't protect my best friend when he needed me most "he whispers and my heart breaks for him.
"I'm sorry DJ" I whisper and pull him into a hug "You know I'm not good with physical contact" he sniffles "Just shut up and hug me. It'll make you feel better" I whisper and slowly he hugs me back. "Don't ever do that again please?" he says squeezing me "I won't I'm sorry I just saw red" I say and he pats my back and pulls away "It's okay. Come on we have work to do" he says putting his arm around me and walks me inside. "So you were a friend of our brother" I hear Ryder ask "Why haven't we seen you around then," Parker asks "Hey what is this an interrogation "I chuckle walking up to them.
"Look this is Trent, but most call him Tip, we were all a group in middle school but four became three when Trent had to leave....for his family business" I say stretching the truth a bit. Trent did leave because of his family but mainly because his dad is actually a hacker just like him, and he made the mistake of trusting Trent's aunt with that secret, and the next thing you know they go into hiding and I haven't seen him since.
"Yeah my father works with... computers and he is one of the best of want he does but somebody didn't like his work so we took a break and left somewhere else for....." "Trent?" I ask "Um....I just remembered something I need to get to work before I forget," he says abruptly getting up. "DJ could you-" "I'm on it," he says walking after Trent "Are you sure you're not mad at us," Ryder asks "What no. You guys just scared me, and me being scared freaked out DJ, and I'm not sure what's happening with Trent right now but DJ can handle it" I say.
"Okay. We'll make sure not to do it again" they smile. "Hey Denna" DJ calls me from the doorway "Um Trent needs your help on something in five minutes is that okay" DJ asks and I nod "Yeah, oh by the way where is your first aid kit," I ask "It's in the living room on top of the shelf," he says and walks back to Trent. "Okay, Ryder sits on the couch while I grab the kit," I say going to the living room shelf and grabbing the kit. I come back and both of the boys are gone "What the hell I leave for two seconds" I whisper to myself "Boys where are you?" I call out.
"Boys" I look in the kitchen, "Adenna" Ryder calls me from where the front door is, "What the hell" I mumble and go over there "A man just dropped this off. He said it was for DJ" Ryder says handing me a box. "Okay, you guys can't go open doors for random people you know" I sigh and they both nod. "DJ YOU HAVE A PACKAGE" I yell "Okay Ryder sit down at the table and I'll wrap you up" I say carrying the box with me. I slowly put the box down and started wrapping Ryder's hand.
"Hey reminds me of old times" DJ chuckles coming into the room, "What do you mean," Parker asks DJ who's getting a knife. "Oh well you see in middle school I would get into a lot of fights even though the three of them warned me against them, especially Adenna, but I'd do it anyways, and every time after they finished scolding me, Adenna would patch me up" DJ chuckles and cuts open the box.
"Gasp" I look over at DJ and then the box that he gasped at, and I have the same reaction, "Boys living room now" I cut Ryder's bandage and close the box. "I...Is something wrong" Parker asks trying to peer at the box. "Yes somebody sent DJ something very inappropriate now go," I say and they shuffle out of the room. "TRENT" I yell for him. "Please tell me I didn't see that correctly" I whisper, "No. I...I think we both know what we just saw" DJ says shocked.
"You called" Trent walks into the room, "What's wrong you two just look like you saw a ghost" he says approaching us slowly "It's not pretty" I say sliding the box over to him. He looks at us and then slowly opens the box "Holy shit" he says and shuts the box "M...Maybe it's not his" DJ shakes his head "Who else would have a four-leaf clover with our initials on it" I whisper angrily. "Yeah, I know. what does it mean" DJ whispers angrily back at me. "I don't know. Why would they cut off his shoulder skin it doesn't make sense "I say confused "I don't know it's not a usual message in gangs" DJ says
"What do we do" Trent asks "I want any evidence that we can gather off of it but do not. I repeat do not touch it with your bare hands. And then I'll call the cops and let them know what I found" I say and they look at me confused "What do you mean? Why you" DJ asks "I'm taking it back to the house you're already on my mom's radar don't need any more reason" I say and they both nod.
