Cursing.

Now that he wasn't concentrating on anything else, Philip realised how bad his face hurt. He was happy that the elderly couple didn't realise anything about his face. Because now it was starting to bruise. Under his eye there already was a deep purple spot and his nose was probably broken. That wasn't too bad tho. He had been though worse. Philip had been walking for a while, listening to music, when it started raining. At first it wasn't too much. Only a few drops here and there. But then it got more. After a few minutes Philip was soaking wet. His clothes were glued to his body and felt heavy. It was uncomfortable. As Philip tried to type in his phone, a car drove by and splashed water on Philip. "ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WATCH WHERE YOU FUCKING DRIVE!! Asshat." He pulled out his phone. 3%. It wasn't gonna last much longer. He felt so cold he was sure he would actually freeze. The wind was picking up speed. If he had just listened to Lenal. Well, there was nothing he could do now. He sighed. There was nothing else he could do than continue to walk. And walk he did. It felt like hours. As the sun set Philip started to get worried. His legs hurt and his head was spinning. It was so cold. His clothes were drenched. With every step Philip made the rain seemed to get heavier. He was about to just sit down on the side of the road and accept his faith as something caught his eye. There was a light. It was a gas station. He smiled. Finally some fucking sign of life. He picked up speed. Suddenly a sharp pain cut through his ankle. Surprised he stopped. What was that? He sat down and checked his ankle. Low and behold his ankle was swollen and blue. He must have tripped or something. Careful he sat up and slowly made his way to the gas station. Philip was so tired. It felt like every step he took brought him further away from the gas station. As he finally made it, he saw a bench.  No one would mind if he would lay down for a few minutes right? There was no one around anyway.

He was just gonna take a quick nap.

"Where is Sac?" Jack said. He had stopped laughing and Haddon had also calmed down. "He drove somewhere he should be back any minute now." Jay mumbled while checking up on the beat up guys again. One of them would have to stay back and wait for them to wake up. Jack wouldn't do it anyway. He'd probably take pictures and leave. He couldn't either. Sac wouldn't because he'd beat them up even more. "Haddon can you.." Jay stopped when he saw Sac's car pull up. "Haddon you stay here and watch those guys. Jack follow me." , "OH where are we going?" Jack said like an existed toddler. "Sac." He just simply replied. If he'd say more Jack would press and ask more about it and ruin Jay's plan. Haddon whined. "WHAT WHY ME?!" , "Because someone has to stay with them." Jay didn't even turn around. "Fuck." Why did it always have to be Haddon. Okay it wasn't always him. But it felt like it was!! "Sac?" Jay whispered. "Ya'll gonna get in the car? I still need to get something." Something? He didn't mean a dead body did he? Was it smart to follow Sac while he was in this mood? "Is it safe?" , "The fuck did you just say?" Jay smiled nervously. "OH NOTHING, nothing all good. Jack get in the back seat."  The last thing Jay and Jack wanted to do is get under Sac's skin now. In the back of Jack's eye he could see Haddon walk in circles with a pouting face, mumbling aggressively. Jack giggled. Haddon was gonna be mad about this for the next 3 months. "Sac?" Jack looked over. Ah shit. Jay looked serious. That meant Sac was in a bad mood again. It wasn't like he was ever in a good mood but. "Sac, where are we going?" Jack put a hand on Jay's shoulder. "Look, you know him, I know him and this isn't gonna end well if you keep it up. You have seen him do bad things but I have seen him do worse. Just shut up and trust him. He knows what he is doing." Jay was always surprised of how mature Jack could be. Couldn't he be like this always? It would safe them so much trouble. "You only know him one year more than I do." He scoffed annoyed. "What? that not.. Okay never mind let's just wait it out." , "Wait it out? Are you crazy? Yes you are right we both know him I swear he got a dead body in the back of his car!!" Sac heard every single word that they said. He knew they weren't good at planning or keeping secrets but damn. Couldn't they be a little bit smarter? His intelligence felt insultled. As Jay and Jack continued to whisper yell on the back seat of his car Sac saw something. A person. Who the fuck would go out in that weather? Sac put his foot down on the gas petal. The car accelerated. The water on the road splashed to the sides right on the person. Sac heard the person yell something after him but he couldn't care less. It didn't matter anyways. Sac looked up. There was a gas station. He was almighty out of gas anyway they could stop there for a while. "Why are we here? This makes no sense what are we here for?" , "My car is low on gas. Go inside." Jay and Jack looked at each other. Why not? "I'LL BE THERE FIRST!!" Jack yelled in a high pitched cackle. "THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS CHEAT!!" Jay yelled racing after him. Sac shook his head. So childish. They have always been. Every time it got serious, Sac had to be the one to get them out. Not like he was smart on that either. He'd just fight his way out. Wasn't so smart either. He had made a ton of enemies that way. And he had lost somebody because of that. Because he never thought of the conveniences. He stopped in his tracks. There was a loud noise and yelling. He should go check on the boys before they burn down the place. He turned his back to the car and the street, not noticing the person that walked towards the gas station looking like a Sig sack on crack. He also didn't notice that the same person collapsed on a bench in the rain. But he was going to. Sac walked in the small store. It looked greedy. A weird smell came from the walls. "THAT'S YOUR FAULT YOU DROPPED IT!!" , "YOU MADE ME DROP IT!!" Jay and Jack had broken some type of glass thing. Yeah, They really were children. "I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHO DID IT SOMEBODY BETTER PAY FOR IT!!" The teenage looking saleswomen yelled, making Jay and Jack flinch. "I'll pay for it. How much?" He asked pulling out his wallet. The girl put her hands on her hips. "40 dollars." Sac nodded giving her the money. "Sac it wasn't me!! It was Jack." , "No it was you!! You dropped it." Jack said pointing his finger at Jay's face. "That's because you made me!!" He said smacking Jack's hand away. Sac didn't listen. He was focusing on something else. He had finally seen the person. Hold on... He knew that orange hair. "You got to be kidding me. This stupid fucking kid." Sac walked out of the gas station. "Sac?" They said at the same time. But he was already outside in the pouring rain. Why was he here? Wasn't he supposed to be back at the hotel? This was almost the completely wrong direction. As Sac got closer to Philip he realised that his face was bruised. There was a dark spot under his right eye and a cut on his nose. He also had a big bruise on his neck that he could see from afar. Reaching Philip he angrily grabbed him.  "Hey. Get up." He pulled Philip off the bench so hard and sudden, that Philip stumbled against him. While Philip was still half asleep Sac realised that he didn't look good. Not at all. There was a deep purple, blueish spot under his right eye and his lip was busted. Aside from that his knuckles were swollen and red. " "What?" He whispered so quite Sac almost didn't hear it in the heavy rain. "I said get up." Who was this? Philip was just sleeping. "No. Leave me the fuck alone." Philip attempted to lay back down but didn't get that far. Sac pulled him on his arm towards the shop. "God fucking damn it how did you even get here? You're drenched." Philip was half asleep. His legs gave out half way to the shop. "Are you serious?" Sac put Philip's arm around his shoulder and grabbed his waist. "Walk." As Sac pulled him into the gas station Jay's and Jack's eyes widened. "OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?!" Jack yelled. "Sac he doesn't look that good.", "I know he doesn't." He pulled Philip to the girl. "Do you have any fresh clothes here?" She nodded now looking worried as well. "Of course. Here." , "Thanks." He pushed Philip in a cabinet. "Put this on." Not waiting for a response he closed the door and walked to the others. "You make sure he does that I'll pay and take him back to wherever the hell he came from. Ya'll call Haddon to come and get you." Sac's tone made it clear. No room for arguments. They nodded. "Okay."
