Recap

The two had talked about Fezco's grandma most of the trip until Reina had fallen asleep with her head on the window. Fezco smiled at the sleeping girl, admiring how her curly hair fell into her eyes.

"Hey, we're almost there." said Fezco, softly rubbing Reina's back. Her eyes fluttered open, looking around her.

She slightly stretched in her seat while looking out of the windows, seeing that they were driving on a long road.

"Where are we?"'asked Reina, letting a yawn slip through her lips.

"Past East Highland, we're gonna stop a little ways out of Brentwood," said Fezco. Reina felt her body shiver at the mention of their location.

"I- uh. Do you know where you guys are meeting?" asked Reina, messing with her already old set of nails.

"I think." said Fezco, "Why?"

"I used to come around here, did some business and it didn't really end well." Reina explained. "It was something I did without my dad knowing, I was stupid. Tried to act like I knew what I was doing."

Fezco had pulled over on the side of the road, stopping the car and turning to Reina.

"I promise, nothing will happen. I won't let it." he said, grabbing Reina's face with his hand and pulling her close to him. "I will never let anything happen to you."

Reina nodded in his grasp, grabbing his hands and squeezing them. Fezco pulled her in and kissed her forehead, wrapping his arms around her and hugging her. He pulled back after holding her for a bit, and began driving again.

Reina's phone beeped, a notification popping up. She quickly read the message and responded, then quickly turning off her phone and stuffing it under her thigh.

Fezco turned to look at her quick action.
"Who's that?" he asked.
"Just Maddie, nothing important." she responded. Fezco hummed in response, knowing she was lying.

They soon pulled up to the building, Reina made sure she was armed with her gun and knife.

"No, leave them," said Fezco, taking the gun out of his waistband.

"Wait what?" asked Reina, concerned.

"We go into this with no weapons or violence." he explained. Reina understood it, she took her gun from her waistband and set it next to Fezco's. But while Fezco's head was turned, Reina slipped her knife in her bra. Making sure it was sealed so it cut her.

They got out of the car together, Fezco went around and grabbed  Reina's hand and pulled her close.
"Stay close, okay?" he said. Reina nodded. Fezco kissed her cheek before letting go of her hand. Reina understood why he couldn't show affection around these people.

Love is a weakness.

They walked up to a large building, many cars parked around. It was miles out of town. There were purple lights that lit the driveway and entryway. They walked up to the double doors at the entrance. Fezco opened one of the doors, walking in and holding it open for Reina.
