"Wow, perfect Felicity, it's great you got this into us soon as you did, I didn't think you would manage to get the house taken into hands." The police man, who Fee soon discovered name was Jonas, chirped taking the papers of her.

"Do you know anything more?" Felicity leaned it closer, tapping her fingers on the desk.

"Not for now, but as I say, we will be in touch when we do. Try and get some rest." Jonas frowned, nodding her a goodbye walking of into the office.

Felicity couldn't live like this anymore, her heart was empty, her head lost and her hope gone. Everything breath was pointless, one breath less till death. The doors swung through behind her as Fee chucked her headphones in, pulling her hood over her head. It was a warm summers day, but everything felt cold to her. Part of her wanted to go and see Ash, find comfort in his words, scent and touch but deep down she knew she couldn't. It wasn't good for her, sometimes you just have to get through things without the help of others.

Just as Fee was about to turn into her block, Rue sat on a wall across the street, silent and zoned away from the world. Fee took one look at her house, then one look at rue. "Rue, rue, come over her." She called, waving her hands over.

Rue shot her head in Felicity's direction, pushing herself of the wall. "Fee?" Rue responded, strolling carelessly across the road, reaching Fee.

"Hey Rue, can you do me a favour?" Felicity sent her a wide teethy grin, but her tired eyes explaining it all.

Elliot, Rue and Felicity sat all crossed legged on the carpet. "Hold up, so I am going to your boyfriends and his brothers store, buying drugs for you, but saying its for me-" Elliot quizzed, his face puzzled.

"Yeah pretty much." The girls said in sync.

"Here's $320, just get some strong shit that will last me at least 2 weeks." Fee counted cash, handing each 10 dollar bill over to him. "What are you waiting for Eliot, we will wait for you here. Whatever you do don't say you know either of us. Got it?"

Elliot swallowed his saliva, giving a cautions nod of understood. Both the girls watch him ride away into the distance. What was she getting herself into.

Elliot was rues newer friend, rue claimed he was trust-worthy and reliable and wouldn't break. Elliot also did a lot of drugs, not too much to level out with rue however. They met at a party, in the bathroom, it's a long story but he pretty much, in fact fully saved her life that day.

Elliot walked in, making his way over to Fezco. "Hey bro, you got some shit?" He leant over the counter, in a low tone, almost whispering.

Fez took his eyes of the magazine, taking a good look at the boy before returning to his original state. "Round back." Fez spoke casually, giving no other contact.

Elliot maintained on task, reaching into his pocket to check the cash is still in there, pulling open the door he locked eyes with the unfamiliar boy.

Instantly the boy felt awkward, looking around his surroundings. "What you want?" Ask scoffed, easing the tension.

"I got 320, I want some good shit that's gonna last me at-least a week or so." Elliot spoke anxiously.

"You do this shit a lot of?" Ashtray chucked, reaching down by his leg.

"Nah, well yeah my dad got pretty sick and used to just fuck of his stuff when he passed." Elliot quickly spoke, knowing if he said yeah, Ash would push who he got it of out of him.

"Yeah I hear that story a lot man." Ashtray shrugged, pushing pills on the table. 

"Mhm." A lump instantly forming into Elliot's throat, realizing what he had said.

"You seem a little on edge bro, you good?" Ash squinted his eyes, trying to work out the boys emotions.

"Anxiety." Elliot hastily made up a lie on the spot, trying to excuse his behaviour.

Ash stared for a minute, before nodding. "That gon be the full 320 homeboy." Ash passed him the bags in exchange for the cash. "Will you be here often now?" Ash questioned him, causing Elliot to stop in his tracks and turn around.

"Erm yeah most likely man." Elliot shrugged.

"Also we have a policy where you can't buy and resell, if I found out yo ass is doing that, I will kill you." His face went stiff, his tone clear.

"Yeah I got you." Elliot gave a forced smile, quickly leaving from fear.

"How the fuck do you put up with that
boy, I just received death threats!" Elliot rambled in, chucking the bag over to Felicity. "Who knows how he would react if he found it I was giving them to his girlfriend."

Felicity gave a shrug, looking through the bag. "Okay well thankyou and thankyou, I shall see you all soon." Fee grinned, jumping of the bed making her exit.

Salia wasn't coming back, Felicity accepted that. She understand it was just her now, and there was other ways to happiness in life. Drugs.

"Fee, are you home?" Maddy called from the front room. "Felicity?" She shouted over the music.

"I'm in here." A voice called back, from the bedroom.

Maddy quickly rushed in, dropping her bags
on the floor. "Ashtray has been calling me all day, he's worried sick, what happened?"

"It's fine, just don't respond." Felicity huffed swinging her legs of the chair.
