Chapter 2 : Her
Tw : language

"Get the fuck away from him" a voice shouted

I look up to see a female shooter on the roof, about to put a bullet in yours truly, "what the fuck is your problem, bitch ?" I shouted, she's gonna shoot me over this dipshit, really ? Me ?

"Get away from that piece of filth or you'll die too"

I looked down at jake was cowering at my feet like a pussy, "bruh what the fuck did your dumbass do to this bitch?" I say confused

He looked guilty as fuck maybe a little high too, obviously did something. I turn back to the girl who was already cocking her gun, "just tell me what he fucking stole and I'll pay you back, no need to be a psycho"

"Move or you die" she said

"Fuck, you're just gonna have to shoot us huh" Jake looked at me with pure fear, "what do you mean shoot ?!" He spat

"shut the fuck up, you wanna die ?" I said turning to him, He piped down and kept himself barricaded behind my legs

her finger pressed the trigger and a bullet left the barrel hitting right next to my foot, nearly two inches away

"You're a terrible shot" I said smiling, she looked pissed like she would actually shoot me this time, "your gonna fucking protect him?!" She said glaring at me and cocking her gun again

I stared at her with a little smirk almost taunting her to pull the trigger, the gun let out another shot almost hitting jake, he whimpered and adjusted his position

"Do you know how to use that sweetheart?"

"Fucking Christ" she said moving her head from the scope, she then dramatically got up storming off, a few seconds later she came marching down from the apartment complex

"Give me him" she demanded

"Fuck no" she glared at me and stared down at jake, "how about you tell her what you tried to do to my sister you freak"

I looked down at jake and his face said it all, I didn't need the full story to know what happened, a low beeping sound from the walkie-talkie pulled me out of my thoughts, I had grabbed it from the motorcycle along with my bag, just in case

"Nalani, you there?" "You find jake yet"

Fuck it was Mikey

I grabbed the radio and pushed down, "yeah I'm here" I said into it, "you find jake yet ? Kid's parents are worried"

Goddamnit

I look at the girl and then back at Jake, I'm not being a part of this, I fucking tried, he made his choice

why does this always happen to me

I pushed the button on the walkie and sighed, "fuck, Mikey he's dead" as soon I said it I moved out of the way and the girl grabbed him and covered his mouth,

"Nalani you're kidding me right, goddamnit his family....can you bring the body?"

I look at jake he had tears streaming down his face, "no, nothing left just a bit of flesh and bloody clothes" jake tried to scream against her hand but it didn't work

"I'm sorry Mikey, I tried, kids stupid you know how reckless he was" he sighed on the other end but accepted it, "alright head back safe ok? I'll talk to the family, damnit"

"Good luck with that, signing out" I clicked the radio off and looked down at the girl, she had blonde hair and baggy clothes hiding most of her body

she was...interesting

She started at me and then the apartment, "you go near her and ill kill you, got it?" she stated

I nodded and she grabbed him and holstered him up dragging him towards the apartment ready to do God knows what to him

I almost feel bad for him

Almost

-

Lexie's pov

I don't know what to say, what do you say to a kid that almost got assaulted? I'm sorry? how will that even help her

mom's gonna kill me

"Are you ok?" my little sister said looking up at me and smiling, "am I ok....are you ok?" I said tearing up

"I almost failed you"

She just smiled and shook her head, "you didn't fail me, I'm glad you were there" her smile could light up a room, I'm not gonna let anybody take that from her,

"what did you do to him?" she asks

"Don't worry about it, he's gone now"

"Can I sleep now ?" I smile and nod

she laid down on her sleeping bag and snuggled into it,

"sweet dreams ok?"

"Night Lex" she says holding her stuffed animal close to her, I smile and walk out of the room leaving her to rest, a faint creak down the hall and low breathing catch my attention as soon as I walk out

"your not as sneaky as you think" I say, the woman pokes her head out from the hall,

"you gonna shoot" she says smirking

"Depends, did I or did I not tell you to stay away?"

"Depends, are you and the kid hungry?"

oh you little shit

She looks...safe, like she could protect us, I don't know why but, I trust her

I don't know why but I do, and if she has food, I'm not in a position to decline that

"you can come in but if you hurt her, you die" I say again this time meaning it

"I won't"

I turned the knob opening the door and walked into the room and headed over  to the couch not taking my eyes off her, she sits and gets in her bag pulling out baggies, "turkey or ham" she says

"You have meat?!" I say shocked, no one has meat there's not enough land to harvest and breed animals where they would just be throwing sandwiches at anyone

"How do you have this" i say interested

She stares at me dumbfounded, "do you not have sandwiches?" she says as if I'm the crazy one, She just smiles and laughs a little, "we have land and a camp, you could come"

"You would let us ?"

"Yeah, you'll be fine if you don't shoot anyone on the way there," she says

"That was one time!"

"Yeah like an hour ago" She rolls her eyes and tosses me the ham sandwich, "do you have a car?" she asks

"Maybe"

"Then we should go when the kid wakes up it will be dark in a few hours, the camps two hours away"

I look down at Alex, she looks so peaceful I can't wake her, "just wait thirty more minutes ok?"

She nodded and unwrapped her sandwich practically drooling, "why are you helping us" I say confused, "you don't have to"

"Think of it as an apology"
