Foxes react: chapter7 part2

Even the dark look Kevin gave everyone was not enough to stop anyone from laughing even Andrew who remembered that day like the palm of his hand had the tiniest smirk on his face even Abby who did not approve of the dust part had nothing to say and was laughing too.

"Drink with us if you won't dust with us," Nicky said, holding his open packet in one hand and his shot in the other. "Down the hatch on three."
Arguing would be fruitless when the four had left their common sense at the door, so Neil picked up his glass in silence. Nicky counted them off, and Neil knocked his shot back. As soon as it hit the back of his throat, Neil knew he'd made a serious mistake.

"Here we go" said Alison, most of the cheerfulness had vanished and was taken over by nervousness.

His sodas had tasted sweet, but this shot was almost unbearably so, and the aftertaste on Neil's tongue wasn't sugar. Neil lurched to his feet, but Andrew grabbed him by his hair and slammed him back into his seat. A cruel twist pulled his head back at a dangerous angle, and Andrew slammed Neil's hand flat against the tabletop. Neil lifted his other hand to pry Andrew's fingers off, but Nicky caught his wrist.

"haha" Nicky laughed a nervous laugh and was scratching the back of his head while the upperclassmen (-Renee), Abby and Wymack were sending them dark looks, that was way different then with Matt. Matt had taken the drugs on his own this time they were doing it with out Neil's approval.

"Don't sleep. I'll kill you."
"Will you?" Andrew asked. "Will you do it yourself, or will you pay someone else to handle the mess? You certainly have enough money to outsource it to a proper hit man. One wonders what a no-one like you is doing with such a fortune."

"Well he does have the money and is not using it, and I am against that idea" said Alison sending dirty looks at them "no one is killing anyone" said Wymack "we have been over this, what happened happened get over it" he continued successfully stopping any other argument from starting.

"Don't tempt me to prove you wrong. How about I call the police and ask them to run a real check on you? You think they'll find anything interesting?"
"That's a hollow threat," Neil said. "The police would never do favors for someone like you."
"I know a cop who would," Andrew said. "If I called him tonight and told him you're a serious problem child, he'd make it a priority. How cold is your trail?"
"Shut up," Neil said.

"It makes me wonder if someone actually made a background check on Neil how many of his past names will they find or if they will be able to find out about the truth" said Renee "Riko already knows" said Andrew out of nowhere surprising some but it quickly turned to shock and the mood fell "after all that's were he was for the winter" he continued, it was something that slipped through their heads and it made them think if Riko knows does that mean that other know too, that detail was something that made the skin of most crawl if his father knows what happens next? "do you think he has said anything about it to his father" asked Matt towards Kevin "how should I know" he said back in a offended voice but continued talking "he did say his father was in prison so maybe not?" they didn't know but they all hoped not because Andrew protecting Kevin from Riko was different from protecting someone from literal serial killers.

This kiss tasted worse, and Neil went numb from his mouth down.
The rest of the night was shattered colors and lights.

Shock had again taken over the room, no one had anything to say not like they could say anything and Nicky looked guilty not looking at anyone but his hands but the other had their eyes at him even Renee had a disapproving expression with dark eyes but all of it was pale at competition of the look Andrew was wearing the grip he had on his chair being the only thing keeping his on his sit as to not go for his cousin's throat "Nicky" Andrew started making Nicky flinch "what was that" he asked, Nicky didn't answer looking more guilty by the second "I said to leave it didn't I?" he continued with more fire then before, Nicky could only open his mouth to try saying anything but nothing came out making Andrew even angrier and just when he was about to stand up he was stopped by his brother's hand on his wrist "leave it for now whatever there is to say say it after we leave this place" said Wymack, Andrew yanked his hand out of his brother's hand and send a glare at Nicky before he sat back down not like he couldn't do anything if he wanted to do something he would but not now.
