chapter 21

I hope I know what I'm doing... Who am I kidding? I should just listen to what My boss had to say...He's older and more experienced than some 26-year-old virgin. In the mirror of my eye I see someone quickly walking by, their pace brisk.

The woman! She didn't seem to be like them... maybe I can milk some information out of her? I came from my ass to my feet but soon William and Jason came in closing the door enclosing us in this room.

William lays on the single bed while Jason heads to the single closet inside the room...showing a rake of mostly black clothing and shoes.

" Look, I already share half of my shit with William so I don't know- you probably going to be having to wear some panties or some shit" turning his head to look at me...

" Can't we just buy more?" hoping my response will make the nerves disappear in my bloodstream. His body turns to face me fully...His face annoyed

"We can't 'just buy more' we are broke as shit" doing a wild facial expression trying to relieve the tension...I swallow a breath shutting my eyes- once they open everything seems to relax

"yeah? we can just shoot up a bank and steal more...no big deal right?" speaking in a condescending tone, shrugging my shouldering hoping the mask of being a jerk is working...Jason's eyes stare at me wide, His mouth pulls back in embarrassment for me and his eyebrows are drawn together creating a wrinkly forehead...I gulp, it must be working! I slightly punch his shoulder his body moves a bit

" Huh- I mean no big deal right?" lifting my head in a sense of pride.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" His face turns into a smile, laughing at me " Liam, what the fuck is wrong with this kid!?"  

"Everything" William's comment seems to make Jason laugh even more gasping for air between fits of laughter. my face is turning red. I'm trying to avoid eye contact with others. My eyebrows are drawn together, and my mouth is turned down in a frown...That was stupid...

William came from the bed and not saying anything walking into the bathroom and shutting the door rather aggressively...

"And besides I'm 50 million dollars in debt to Liam"

" can't we just you know rob a bank and get more money?"

"Why would we rob a bank for the fun of it? especially for a dumb thing such as clothing" He rolls his eyes as if I'm delirious, walking to the bunk bed and climbing on the top. 

"But- isn't that what you guys did the first time? rob a bank?"

"Yeah? Because we needed money" tucking himself under the covers...I walk facing him, tilting my head up to see his closed eyes...they open again in my presence " What?"

"Nothing" I squint laying in the bottom buck.... nothing at all.

"Liam, when you come out blow out the candle!" Jason shouts...I'm tired that's for sure...but can I honestly sleep? especially knowing he has a knife under his pillow? Yeah, I saw it...  

I can't sleep but this bed is so comfortable...so much space than my twin-size bed...

I didn't sleep last night, and I'm watching the sky come up. The sky is dark blue, and it's slowly turning into a lighter shade of blue. The stars are disappearing, and the birds are starting to chirp. The air is cool, and I can feel a light breeze on my face. I'm feeling like I'm in a dream, and everything around me is surreal.

I watch as William is the first to wake to grab some clothes. any clothing heading into the bathroom...the creaking of the bed above me signals Jason's also awake...as he slowly comes down rubbing his eyes, and walks to the closet...His eyes came to me...then back to the closet then back to me with wide eyes and flinches
