Off the Radar

Chapter 23: P-P-P-Poker Face

"Marcus...." I muttered.

"What?!" We were both getting agitated cause he can't find the retirement home.

"When are we getting there?" Since we've only been here once. I wouldnt expect him to know. But I want to see him suffer.

"Excuse me officer." He waved some one over. I rolled my eyes and walked away. He grabbed me by my collar and held onto me. "I was looking for a retirement home."

The officer thought for a moment then looked at me with a little smirk. I hope to god nothing comes out of his mouth. I'm not in a good mood to be messed with.

He caught on to my stone glare and looked back and Marcus who was doing the same face. We both shot daggers unknowingly which made him uncomfortable.

"Thank you sir we can take it from here." Some one said behind me. A gun was placed on my back.

"Let's go you two." I turned around ready for a shield jet but it was just a cop car.

Marcus grabbed my hand. "Where you wanna go?" I mumbled.

"I really want to go to Arizona. Since you already put us on a meaningles- why are you arresting us?" I snapped to reality realizing I WAS GETTING ARESTED.

She held up pictures of us on her phone. "For one you were threatening a citizen."

"In a full police uniform?! You should be arresting him."

"Also this was sent in from New York."

It's a missing ad from dad. "Shit!" Marcus cursed. I wanted to cradle myself.

"We should invite him on the trip."

"WE ARE NOT GOING BACK TO NEW YORK" I screamed.

"No what you are going to do is-"

"Give me your phone. Call the number" Marcus said. She hesitated and lowered her gun.

"Marcus we aren't adding more people."

"Fine Riley. You don't have to be apart of us. You can go do your own thing by yourself, since that's what you were going to do anyway." He screamed.

I slammed past him and sat under tree. "Son of a bitch." I muttered.

He glanced over and sighed. "Riley I think he deserves to know."

I narrowed my eyes. "Just do it already so we can leave the country" I sighed.

"What about Arizona?!" Marcus frowned

"There are cops here and our dad innocently will go to shield about finding us. When shield questions the cop, who by the way can hear us, they'll find out exactly why I went to Arizona. So let's go some where out of country."

"Like Alaska" He teased.

I shook my head. "I'm surprised Hydra didn't teach you geography."

He dialed the number with a smile and some one instantly picked up. "Hey dad"

Yelling erupted from the phone. "I just wanted to say that Riley is under my watch since I am almost 19" Marcus laughed. "Yes, yes, yes, oh of course. Little miss free spirit isn't getting out of my site. Of course, obviously, if she does I'll handle it. We promise. Bye"

He hung up and tossed back the phone. The officer wasn't ready so it hit the pavement. He looked at it like an idiot.

"Put it on Shield's tab" I yelled.

He grabbed my hand and looked ready to take off.

"What were you talking about to dad about?"

"He wants me to take care of you and collect and send post cards from every place we have been" He said.
