Mike's POV

"If you still care don't ever let me know!" I sang to Shiloh as a strummed the last few notes on my guitar. I just learned a new song and Shiloh loves being sung to so she practically begged me to sing it to her. It was Snuff by Slipknot.

"Again again!" Shiloh chanted as she clapped her hands.

"No no honey. I'll play it again tomorrow. You have to get some sleep." I said to her.

"Okay." She said. I pulled her small blanket over her and kissed her head.

"Goodnight Shiloh. I love you." I said as I shut the light off in the guest room.

"I love you too uncle Mike." she softly said as I exited the room and closed the door.

I smiled to myself as I walked down the hall with my guitar. Shiloh is the most adorable thing ever.

I opened up the door to my room and set my guitar down. I crawled in bed and sighed. I really wish my girlfriend were here but she's on a business trip. Don't get me wrong, I love Shiloh but she can be a handful sometimes. She should be with Vic. She needs him. I don't want Shiloh to get too attached to me or she may not want to live with Vic again. I really hope that doesn't happen.

I felt my eyes slowly close and my body relax. Sleep here I come. BUZZ.

"Shit!" I exclaimed. I looked over and saw it was just my phone vibrating, alerting me that someone was calling. That startled me.

I grabbed the phone and hit accept without even looking at the number.

"Hello?" I asked as I held the phone to my ear.

"Hello, I am calling to speak to Mike Fuentes." The male voice said on the other end.

"This is him speaking." I said, a bit annoyed. Whatever this person is calling about, it better be good.

"This is officer Steven Johnson from the Palm Springs police department. We have a Victor Fuentes here who would like to be bailed out." The officer said.

"Oh god. What did he even do?" I asked.

"He was at a party with Jake Carson. Victor  was getting himself into some major trouble with drugs." The man said. Drugs? Oh no.

"Who's Jake Carson?" I asked.

"He's a drug dealer that the FBI has been trying to catch for years. Anyone who's involved with him is probably a major drug addict but Victor claims that he's never done drugs before." He said.

"I-I'll be there in a bit." I nervously stuttered. I hung up and got out of bed.
What the hell Vic?

I went down the hall to Shiloh's room and shook her awake.

"We have to go Shiloh." I said as I picked her up and cradled her in my arms like she was a little baby again.

"Where are we going Mikey?" Shiloh asked as I walked out of the room and down the stairs.

"We need to go get your dad out of a bad situation." I said. She didn't say anything back after that. She just sighed with a depressed look on her face. I went out to the car and carefully got her in her car seat. I got in and started the car. I hope I don't kill Vic out of anger when I get there.

Vic's POV

"Have you been doing drugs before this?" A woman who was questioning me asked. I was currently sitting down, hand cuffed and being forced to answer questions.

"No." I quietly said to her. It was more like I was saying it to the floor because my head was in my hands and I was staring down at the white floor.

"Do you know who Jake Carson is?" She asked.

"He's a person." I said. I'm still a tad bit out of it. "Who's a drug dealer."

"Yes. And were you aware that was wanted by the FBI and he is the suspect of two rapes and one murder?" She asked.

"No I was not fucking aware of that ma'am." I said with anger strong in my voice.

"Sir please don't use that sort of language." She calmly said. "Looks like you're done being questioned so unless you have someone bailing you out you might be spending the night here."

I looked up at her. She just looks like a cloud of blurry vision. "My brother is going to bail me out. I know it." I said slowly.

"Okay, well you just keep telling yourself that, buddy." She said as she exited the room.

Ah finally. I'm alone in this little cell like room. Alone with my thoughts. My crazy, fucked up tho-

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU VIC?!" I heard as the door slammed open. Standing there was a police officer and Mike.

I slowly stood up with an apologetic look on my face. "Mike. I- I didn't know what I was doing." I honestly confessed.

Mike ran at me and slammed me up against the wall and started yelling things at me. At that moment time slowed down. I saw Mike screaming at me as he held me by my neck but I couldn't hear his voice. I saw the cop running towards Mike to pry him off me but he seemed to look like he was running slower. I felt voices in my head go crazy. Why are you doing this? Go back to your daughter! Move past all the bullshit and get a life Vic! But most importantly... Remember I love you. There was no stopping what happened to me. Those little voices in my head... They are Blade's words. Then the reality hit me. This isn't what Blade would have wanted! What am I doing!

I need to pick up the broken pieces of my life and I need to do it now.
