On the ride home you sat in the cab with soda and Steve. Pony and Johnny sat in the back of the truck. You were sitting there reading the book you got when the truck stopped at a red light. You heard a car pull up behind you and pony started tapping on the back window. Steve turned around and slid it open. "What's the matter back there?" "Blaze it's those guys from earlier" Pony said hurriedly. "Shoot. Are they getting outta their car?" You said closing your book. "No" Johnny said answering your question. "Will this light hurry up. We need to get outta here before they recognize pony and Johnny." "Alright it's green. Hold on boys" Soda hollered as he mashed the gas and sent the truck lurching forward. That was a close you thought as you drove away from the stop light. About five minutes later you guys all walked into the Curtis house and sat down on couch between soda and Steve. You guys were watching a pretty good show then two-bit walked in and changed the channel. "What the heck was that" you hollered at two. "Geez Blaze calm down it's just a show" two bit said with a laugh. You didn't think it was all that funny so you dove outta the spot where you were sitting and attacked two-bit. "Wow I thought her side was hurting" Steve said with a laugh. "It is man but that don't stop me if some one needs a good smack upside the head imma be the first one to give it them." You said smacking two upside the head to prove your point. "What'd I miss" Dallas said walking through the door. "Just two here get to g beat by your little sister" you said with that New York attitude that always made you sound tuff. "That's my little sis. Wait what joke did he tell now" dal asked. "He turned the show that we were watching" soda said. You grabbed the book you got that day and started reading it. You were already half way through it. "Did you at least get a good book Jo" m"yeah" you said not looking up from you book. "How much of that book have you read?" Soda said looking at both sides of the book. "Um.. about half." You said. "You just got that two hours ago and it's thicker than the phone book." Soda said with a grin. "I know but it's a really good book" you say with a devilish grin. "Uh what's that book about" dally said cocking and eyebrow. "Girl stuff" you said giggling at something you were reading. "What kinda girl stuff" Dallas asked. "You don't even wanna know dal. Trust me. Hey I told James I was gonna call him later. I'll be right back in gonna go call him now." You say putting your book mark in the book and walking into the kitchen. You dialed James number and waited for him to answer. "Hello" rusty James said when he answered the phone. "Hey James" you say with a smile in your voice. "Blaze! You will never believe what happened today. You know that one guy that gave Jamie the heater. He's looking for you. He came looking for me cause I usually know where you're at. He's like I know you know where Blaze is now tell me." "Wait he's looking for me. Why? Does he know I'm in Tulsa?" So many things were going through your head. "Yeah he's looking for you. He says you beat up one of his boys. And I haven't told him. But one your so called hunters told him." "What. Which one and how did you find out? Why did she tell him?" You said panic started to fill your voice. "Jamie told him. And I don't know why." "She was my best friend. I told her everything. What did I ever do to her?" "I know. I gotta go I miss you and I will tell you more later call me ok." "Ok James I miss you to" "blaze one last thing. Be careful. I hear he has a lot of connections in Tulsa. Bye" Rusty James said before hanging up the phone. So many things were rushing through your mind. And all you could do was just walk back into the living room. Sit down and stare at the wall not even paying to the guys who were sitting there reading you book laughing at it harder and harder. Soda and Two both looked at you and knew something wasn't right. "Blaze what's wrong?" Soda said looking at you and the rest of the guys stopping what they were doing and looking at you. "He's after me." Is all you managed to say with your mind totally blank. "Who" Dallas said. "And she told him where I was at" you said processing the whole thing yourself. "Who is after you and who told him where you were." Dallas demanded.
