Condemned

Chapter 7: Jasper

Finally, Russia. We were packed with people, 10 of us all together. I've been waiting for something like this, a vacation from life itself with my greatest of comrades and the love of my life. Dante came over to me and jumped on my back before I could react we were both laughing on the ground.

“You're a dick!” I said

“FROG SPLASH!” I heard from the other direction and Jax landed on top of both of us.

“Nooooo!” Dante exclaimed.

The bad part about this was that we were still in the airport waiting for our luggage. Everyone was staring at us like we were buffoons. I finally got up and dusted myself off. These assholes are always up to some mischievous shit. I love them though. When we picked our bags up I noticed Andrew was very pale and very clammy so I couldn't help but to ask

“Andrew you good dude?”

“Dude look behind me, does that guy look me?” I didn't want to look suspicious so I acted as if I left something behind us and when I focused my eyes there was a man not too old but not young. And he looked exactly at Andrew. I know from what he told me his father wasn't in his life and I was kind of stuck in shock. I turned back around and looked at Andrew.

“Dude is that your dad? I'm not joking this time I'm serious.”

“I don't know. But I'm about to find out.” I grabbed his shoulder and looked him directly in his eyes, they were dark, he looked scared, but the way his fist clenched he was out for blood.

“Its not worth it Drew. We’re in Russia. This isn't the place to start trouble. Just come with us.” Everybody else noticed us and Damien's jaw dropped when he saw the older replica of Andrew behind us.

“What the fuck is going on?” Celeste said.

“Do you not see Drew's dad behind them?!” Damien said in a rather hushed tone.

“Oh my god” Celeste responded.

Andrew's eyes watered, 19 years of untapped hatred filled his eyes. He finally snapped the cold stare with me and looked towards the man.

“I'm not going to hurt him, I just want to know if its actually… him.” I couldn't stop him. And neither could anybody else. All of us had our eyes fixed on Andrew, who was walking towards his alleged father. I couldn't stand to see what was about to happen. So I turned my head and walked towards the food court. I was hungry and very tired. Celeste and Dante followed me and we got some food before heading in the road to the supermarket and our cabin we rented for the week. I scuffed my food down like I always do and just played phone games until everyone came over and ate before we all headed out. Drew didn't order anything and looked very depressed. The table was absolutely silent and that literally never happens. We went outside the airport and rented 2 cars, 5 people in each. Dante, Jax, Celeste and Andrea can with me and Damien, Justin, Andrew, Skylar and Avianas in the other car. We went to the supermarket right away, the night air in Russia felt amazing through my hair and I was bumping alternative rock in the car, jamming with everyone. It finally felt like vacation was picking up on a high note. When we left the supermarket, Jax became our personal Siri and guided us to the cabin. It looked brand new. All new wood, you can smell it. It was fresh and cut not too long before. This place was brand new, for the price we got it at was a steal. We were welcomed by a pine fragrance in the Cabin. There is 4 rooms each with 2 beds and a master bedroom which Me and Celeste basically won by default due to our relationship and only needing one bed. But Dante and Jax tried to bargain it off of us because back in 11th grade we would all fit on my bed when we had slumber parties. 3 grown teenagers on one bed. But we made it work. Damien, Andrew, Justin and I made it work as well. But owell we won the room. When we got out everyone was telling everyone who they were bunking with.
