Waking up, I notice a little bag at the edge of 'my' bed. I get up, stretch a little and ponder over the shitstorm that is my life before opening the bag and seeing more clothes. With a sigh, I'm up.

"She's awake," Lexis announces, leaning against the door frame, phone in hand.

"Finally!" Alisha says, popping her head in. She smiles once she sees me. "I got you some clothes."

I nod and point to the bag. "Yeah, thanks, I saw."

"Quickly get changed, we're going out again," Flynn says, voice coming from behind Lexis.

Groaning, I walk towards the bathroom, having to shove past all three of them to do it, and open the door, closing it once I'm in. "I don't want to go anywhere."

"Well tough shit," Lexis shouts.

...

"So, where are we going this time?" I ask once we're all in Lexis' car.

"Park," Flynn replies.

"The park?" I repeat. "You serious?"

"Yep," he says, popping the 'p'. "We gotta do a drop off."

Of course. I roll my eyes.

"Can you turn the radio on?" Alisha asks, from next to me. Flynn turns it on and I laugh as Nick Jonas' Jealous blares out.

"Well damn," Lexis says, laughing as well. "Seems like decades ago."

"What does?" Flynn and Alisha ask at the same time.

"The time that shithead-" I point at Lexis. "-kidnapped me."

"Hey," Lexis defends. "It was your fault."

"It was my fault that you kidnapped me?" I raise an eyebrow.

He nods. "You shouldn't have been out at that time of night."

"That was my grandparents cabin. It was private property, you shouldn't have been on it."

"Guys, shut up," Flynn says. "We're here."

Lexis parks up the car and turns to the back, looking at me. "You're coming with us."

I shake my head. "Uh, no I'm not, I'm staying with Ali."

"Considering what happened last time, I'm not leaving you in the car again."

"I'm staying behind," Flynn speaks up. "Can't be bothered to get up right now. Plus, I'll be here to defend in case someone comes to steal the car radio."

"Who even steals a car radio?" Lexis sighs and opens his car door. "Lazy little shit," he mumbles, coming round to my side and opening the door. "Let's go, Cupcake."

"Not a cupcake you twatbag," I retort, getting up and out of the car.

"Not a twatbag, Cupcake." He smirks and motions with his head for me to walk in front.

Knowing it'll get me no where, I dash forward but get pulled back instantly as the two familiar arms wrap around my waist. Lexis raises an eyebrow.

I shrug. "What? It was worth a try. You know I could scream bloody murder."

Lexis leans down to my ear. "Then scream. Have you seen where you are?"

At that, I raise my head. Just great. There is hardly anybody around, aside from a guy sitting on a bench in the middle of, what I'm sure is meant to be, the park-- which is basically just a field of unmowed grass that's dead and lifeless with a little children's swing set in the corner looking like its about to break apart any second.

The buildings around it are just as dead with graffiti covering every other wall and all doors with their paint chipped, some with wooden planks in front of them.

The sky itself is dull and grey, an exact reflection on the area.

"Scream all you want Cupcake, but people in this area won't give two shits about it." Lexis removes one arm from around me, but keeps the other there.

"Fuck you," I grumble, reluctantly trudging forward, heading towards the dude on the bench.

"Stay quiet," Lexis warns.

I roll my eyes. "Yes, dad."

"Chase?" Lexis asks, and the dude on the bench, Chase, looks up, green eyes narrowing in on me. He smirks and stands up, pulling his hood off.

"Lexis, it's been a while," he says, eyes still on me. Lexis' grip around my waist tightens and I elbow him lightly.

"Not long enough," Lexis mumbles and Chase laughs, turning his attention to Lexis.

"Always the joker. You got what I want?"

"Depends, you got what Boss wants?"

Chase places a hand over his heart. "It hurts that you need to ask."

Lexis rolls his eyes but uses the hand that isn't around my waist to reach into his pocket and takes out a little envelope. Chase eyes it hungrily and passes over a wad of cash, Lexis taking it and placing it in his pocket.

Lexis nods. "Nice doing business with you." He turns us around and starts walking but Chase runs up in front of us.

"Hey, hey, leaving so soon?" He smiles, and with that simple action, it feels like he's draining any remaining light around. I could swear the sky got darker. "You only just got here."

"Right, and now we're leaving. So if you'd move out of the way, that'd be fucking nice," I say, wanting to get back in the car and leave this damn place.

He tilts his head at me, smile widening. "She talks! What's your name, sweetcheeks?"

"Chase, fuck off," Lexis growls, moving around Chase and attempting to walk on.

Chase laughs and once again stands in front of us. "No."

"There a problem?" Flynn asks, walking up to us and Chase turns around, facing him, smile fading a little.

"No, there's no problem."

I point at the dipcrap blocking the way. "There is, this little shit won't piss off."

"That girl has got a mouth on her." He looks at me and smirks. "Wonder how well it works."

"Oi," Flynn says, reaching forward and grabbing Chase's coat. "Shut the fuck up, that's my cousin."

"Oh shit, now I know why she looked familiar. If she's anything like you, I bet she'd be a good fu-" Chase is cut off by Flynn punching him across the face.

I wince at what must've been one hell of a punch judging by Flynn's red knuckles. Lexis laughs and leads us to the car, leaving Flynn behind to deal with Chase.

There's a shout of, "Say anything like that again and I'll kill you!" and Lexis hurries me forward before I can look back.

We get in the car and wait for Flynn who turns up with a goofy smile and bleeding knuckles. "Love you, Faye."

I laugh and shake my head. "Love you too."

Bonjour dear people of Wattpad and Unwanted Cupcakes readers!

Sorry for the late update (by a day, but still late) I was just really busy yesterday and I was out the whole day. I'm really tired but hey, another chapter is up!

I was thinking about Lexis and Faye's ship name (random, does not mean they will get together) and thought of Flexis. Now that made me laugh seeing as me and my friends used to call sex flex. So it's basically sex-is. Sexis. Nice name, right?

Anywho, make sure to vote and comment what you thought! This story is almost at 1k reads and I'm literally shitting myself!

'Till next time my little poop nuggets,
