I woke up around 12 in the afternoon. It's Sunday so I know alot of people are at church. So I slowly sit up in my bed and just looked around. I heard the t.v from downstairs and remember that Bella stayed the night. I walk across the hallway into the bathroom and turn the shower on. I look in the mirror and see my reflection. My eyes are a dark brown and bloodshot. A scar on my cheek from a knife cut. My hair all shaggy form morning hair. The mirror got fogy before I got to check the rest of my face.
I get in the shower and let the warm water go on my back. I wash up and get out. I dry off and put the towel around my waist. I walk to my room and to find cloths to wear. I find blue jeans,grey undershirt and a red plaid shirt to go over it. I put on my grey high tops and walk downstairs. Bella is sound asleep on the couch. So I turn off the t.v and walk to the kitchen. I see I left my phone on the kitchen table. I walk passed the table and go into the cabinet to look for food. I remember that I haven't went grocery shopping in awhile. I just been eating out really. I walk back to the table and sit down.
I pick up my phone and see I have 10 missed calls,20 text messages,and a voice mail. I check the messages first and see that 15 girls texted me from school. I chuckle lightly and realizing I don't even know them. The other 5 message were talking about jobs that I can do for the gang. One of jobs is a target they want me to hit.
'John we need you to take out this target and take over his drug center so we can produce our own.'
I sent a text message back and saying yes and asking for information about the place. After that I check the voice message.
'John any chance you can call me back it's Jimmy,ok bye.' I call him later. I shove my phone in my pocket and walk back upstairs. I walk into my parents room and grab my bag. As I leave my parents room and walk downstairs Bella is up.
'Hey John what are you up too?' Bella said smiling at me. She sat at the kitchen table looking at her phone.
'Just packing up my stuff for work.' I said while putting my bag on the table. I pull out my gun and set it on the table.
'Oh that business.' She said looking away from me.
'Yeah I know you don't like what I do but it's for a good cause.' I say while I put more rounds in magazine of the gun. I know she has never liked me working with my Uncle form the start but it paid well. I'm in high school I needed a job to keep up with the bills of the house.
'Well I hope you stay safe out there.' She said while smiling at me.
'I'll be fine. Oh yeah here is some money for food and whatever else you want.' I said while handing her $200.
'Thank you. I was looking for food but you didn't have any.' She said while taking the money.
'You're welcome. Now go clean up and take a shower. You can take some of my cloths from my room.' I said while walking towards the back door.
'Thank you again.' She said while walking upstairs.
I throw my bag in the backseat and start the car. I pull out of the driveway and head down the street heading to the safe house.
