Beauty and A Beating

Chapter 9

Izzy's POV

Asher pulled me off the ledge with him, and I didn't really know what was happening.

I closed my eyes and prayed. "Please take care of my mom, my dad, Dutchess, and Kade..-"

Before I could finish, Asher and I landed on one of the balconies. It was a fabric flap over it that saved us.

"Did you plan this?" I asked, sitting up.

Asher nodded and helped me as he climbed down.

"The boys are down there, we gotta hurry up." Asher pulled me down to the ground and we took off towards the van, piling in.

I gave the keys to Asher, I felt he needed to drive since the plan had changed.

The idea with the laundry is pretty clever I admit.

I wonder if they are really going to get away with it. Well of course they aren't! I mean Carlos wont just drop a situation like that!

I wonder how he is going to react when he figures out its just dirty laundry.

The boys and I were awkwardly sitting in the car. While they were coming up with plans I was too deep into my thoughts. I kept coming up with "what ifs" and trust me it wasn't helping the situation.

Once I got back into reality, I started paying attention to their scheme.

"Ight so that's the plan!" Asher said as if he was a complete genius.

"Wait what are we-" I started then Asher got a phone call.

"Hello- Yes this is Asher- Mhm- What?- Really?- You have to be fucking kidding me- What am I gonna do?- Okay thanks man-"

"What the fuck was that?" Justin said with a lost facial expression.

"Some guy just called me saying that the cops are going on a major hunt right now for us and I have no clue where the fuck we are going but we have to get out of here as soon as possible. This could risk our lives and our jobs." Asher said while tugging at the ends of his hair.

Im actually worried, this could be risking all of us big time.

"Where are we staying then?" Daniel suddenly spoke up.

"Well, if we are living this shitty state might as well take a break and enjoy ourselves. Maybe a couple days away from this horrible life can make us go back on track for a bit. Then when we come back we all go back to this life. We can also plan while we are there. No one will suspect us leaving town, it will probably be on the newspaper but we will lay low." Asher said.

"Finally, a break!" I spoke up after moments of silence because it was just syncing into everyone.

"So forget the plan we just made?" Justin said.

"Yeah, so what we are going to do is we are going to quickly run into the apartment grab some of our shit then meet up back here. Once we get to the airport my buddy, Josh, has a private jet he could hook us up with and when we get there we will decide where we are going." Asher finished.

"Uh how far are we from the apartment and I don't have any stuff to grab..." I whispered.

"We will buy you clothes wherever we are going." Justin said quietly.

Once we arrived at the apartment everyone rushed in quickly and packed their bags. I stood in the kitchen and grabbed an apple because we haven't eaten all day.

How do these guys live this type of life? I almost got killed today for godsake. I miss all my friends and family. I wonder if anyone even noticed if im gone. Atleast im starting to get some respect around here.
