Unwanted Cupcakes

Chapter Ten

The drive to wherever the heck we were going consisted of me and Alisha getting to know each other a little better. I found out that she was only friends with Flynn and Lexis and wasn't involved with the whole guns-and-murder thing. She had recently turned 18 and didn't want to carry on sixth form, so she'd dropped out. Lucky.

"Are we there yet?" I ask for what seems to be the hundredth time. In my defense, I hadn't eaten anything and was in desperate need of food.

Flynn groans, "Jesus Faye, for the last time, no, we aren't there!" 

"Well how fucking long does it take? I'm hungry!"

"I could do with some food as well," Alisha pipes up. "So long as it isn't pork and is halal or fish." Oh yeah, and she was a Muslim. Personally I found the whole God business a little too much, but that didn't mean that those without the same beliefs should be treated any differently. Ultimately, we were all the same shitty people regardless of religion.

Flynn groans. "You two are a nightmare. Someone stab me now."

"Basically how I feel when it comes to you. Now shut that mouth of yours and stop off somewhere to get us some bloody food!"

"What she said," Alisha agrees.

"We have to tell Lexis first. Faye, take my phone and call him."

There were a bunch of files on the passenger seat so Alisha and I had to sit at the back. Leaning forward, I take the phone from Flynn's hand and open up his contacts. I scroll through to 'Lexis', quickly change it to 'Poop Nugget' and call him.

It rings three times before he picks up. "Flynn?"

"Nope, it's the love of your life."

There's a gagging sound on the line, "Sorry, I just puked. Guess I'm sick of your bullshit."

"Haha, very funny, you broken pair of glasses. We're stopping off to eat since I'm hungry and Flynn said to tell you."

"What? No. We have a time limit, we can't be late," Lexis says and there's some shuffling on the other side. "Put Flynn on."

I press the speaker button. "You are now on speaker to Flynn, Alisha and me. Say hello to Lexis guys."

"Hey dipshit!" Alisha calls out.

"Lex, what's up?" Flynn asks from the front.

"Flynn, you do realise we can't be late to this. Boss said it was serious."

Flynn sighs. "I know, but the girls want to eat. It'll be really quick, we'll just stop off McDonald's."

"If we're late and boss finds out, it's on you," Lexis warns before hanging up. I pass the phone back to Flynn.

"McDonald's it is." I smile.

...

Half an hour later, with much arguing on my part, Lexis, Flynn, Alisha and I are all sat inside MacDonald's. Lexis with a Big Mac, Flynn with a Nugget meal (I, of course, had to make a remark about poop nuggets), Alisha with a chocolate milkshake and chips (because she couldn't get anything else) and me with a kids Happy Meal.

What? I like the free toys. Sue me.

"You're so dead Flynn," Lexis says, taking a large bite out of his burger.

"It wasn't my fault! We were just meant to go through the drive-through but someone-" Flynn glares at me and I smile sweetly. "-decided to have a strop and demand we eat inside."

"Eating inside is so much better though," Alisha says, grabbing a bunch of chips and dipping it into barbecue sauce. "This shit is good."

I laugh. "Indeed it is."

"I can't believe you made me pay," Lexis grumbles out.

I point at him wit a chip, "Oh hush you rusty door-hinge. You drag us out to potentially kill people/sell hardcore drugs, you pay for the food."

"It's only fair." Alisha smiles beside me.

Lexis looks down at his phone and his eyes widen. "Shit, Boss just texted me asking if we were there!" He looks at Flynn with wide eyes. "What the fuck do we do?"

Flynn makes a sound I can only describe as a squeal before he jumps out of his seat and grabs all of our trays, dashing to the bin. He chucks it all away, running back.

"Flynn, what the fuck! I hadn't finished eating," Alisha screams, attracting the attention of other customers. "Nothing comes between my food and I, you're dead."

"I still had three chips left!" I add in, holding back a furious-looking Alisha.

"Lexis, hurry up and get into your car," Flynn orders and Lexis nods, getting up and running to his car. "Look, I'll buy you two more meals when we come back, but Boss will literally murder me if we mess this up, and you don't want me murdered do you?" He asks Alisha.

"At this point, I'm not even sure anymore," she growls out.

"I'll buy you three more meals?" Flynn offers.

"Five."

"Four."

Alisha narrows her eyes. "Six."

"Okay fine, fine, six. Now let's go." Flynn motions for us to leave and we do, him sprinting to his car and quickly starting it. He pulls out of the McDonald's car park and follows behind Lexis' car.

"I am so dead," he mutters.

...

Flynn parks up behind an old, isolated building and I can't help but snort at how clichè the whole thing is. The scene looks like something right out of a movie. I snort at myself; that line is like something right out of a movie.

Lexis parks right beside us. He walks up to the car and opens the passenger door. "Ali, you're watching Faye. Whatever you do, don't let her run away," Lexis warns.

I roll my eyes. "It's not like I know where the hell I am. Look around, we're in the middle of fucking nowhere."

"Watch her," Lexis repeats and Alisha rolls her eyes.

"I heard you the first time now get lost and do what you need to do," She says, waving him away.

"We'll be back soon," Flynn says and gets out of the car, shutting the door. Lexis shuts the passenger door and motions for us to lock the car from the inside. Once I've done that, he gives me one last look before turning around and walking away.

"The dude's acting like you're some sort of prized possession that he doesn't want to lose." Alisha snorts. "He definitely likes you."

My eyes widen in horror. "Okay, firstly, no way in hell. Secondly, no way in hell. Maybe you've forgotten but he kidnapped me. He's only worried about what will happen to him if and when I escape." Really? And how much do you not want to believe that?

HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO my fellow UC readers! It's been long since I last updated - ten days to be precise - and I'm so very sorry.

I don't have any excuses apart from I've been tied down with so much drama to do with my fandom. Does that count as an excuse? It will have to.

Once again, so very, very sorry! Hope this chapter makes up for it though? (:

Faye's staring to feel.. she's starting to feel things. Oh my gosh guys, I wasn't ready for this. Oh crap okay, I'm freaking out and I'm the bloody author. Make sure you tell me what you think about this chapter!

'Till next time my little poop nuggets,
