Dylan's P.O.V
The high had worn off and now I had a killer headache. I had several small baggies in my pocket and I was ready to smoke them at any time. I had business to handle now though. I needed to talk to Megan. I needed to show her I wasn't the guy on the phone. How to tell her I do drugs? I'm not sure, I just know I need Megan. I don't want her to hate me. I stumbled through the streets looking desperately for her house. This ain't the neighbourhood. I turned around and was standing face to face with Steven Dawn.
"Lookie, lookie. I see I hit the jackpot."
"What do you want?"
"I wonder how well getting arrested with drugs will do for you?"
I ran a hand over my pocket. Why I do that? Now he know I got drugs.
"Look, I want to make a deal."
"What's that?"
"Tell me your source."
"No, so you can go rat him out and I can shot to death in these streets. I don't think so."
"I can make you very rich. This is a once in a lifetime offer. It's either this or you're off to the slammer."
"What kind are you looking for?"
"Weed, LSD, maybe some coke."
"Man....that's expensive."
"I know, I got the money though. I know you do too. Your dad's a banker and your mom a doctor. Why rob a bank?"
"Reasons I can't explain right now."
"I don't reall care. Your man got a name or not?"
"I'll show you to him. Try anything funny and he'll blow your brains out your butt."
"Whatever."
I lead him back across the street and into the room with Drake.
"5-oh?" Anthony asked.
"Nah man, he cool. A customer."
"Look at you, I send you away for some money I get more money. I like you kid."
"Thanks." I left the room giving Drake and Steven a chance to work out a deal.
"Hey!' Drake called after me. He threw a pair of keys into my hand. "A little something."
"A BMW man? Thanks."
"Don't mention it....partner."
I walked out of the room and to Drake's garage. I found the right car and punched in Megan's address. I drove silently all the way to her house.
I parked a block away and peeped in the window. Man. They were having dinner and it looked good too. I stepped back and was determined to wait until I could get her alone.
I waited almost all night until I saw the bottom half of the house lights go off and hers come on. I picked up a few rocks from the corner and threw them at her window.
"What are you doing here?" She whispered.
"I need to talk to you."
"I don't want to talk to you."
"I know and i'm sorry. I had some things going on. Come down."
"I can't."
"Alright then, I guess i'm coming in." I started for the front door.
"Alright. Meet me at the back door." I ran behind the house and minutes later Megan came running through the back door. We ran all the way to my car.
"I'm sorry."
"What was that? I thought you liked me and then you hate me?"
"Like I said, I had some things going on."
"What things?"
I turned my head the other way.
"You can talk to me. I won't judge you."
"Family things. My brother....I just can't...." I was lying now and hated lying to her, but I couldn't tell her.
She grabbed my hand and rubbed her silky ebony skin against my olive hand. I brought her chin up with my other hand and pecked her lips lightly. I pulled away quickly and looked down.
"Why did you stop?" She questioned.
"I thought you wanted me to." I brought her lips to mine again and kept kissing her. I moved from her lips to her neck and she didn't protest.
"Not here," I whispered against the crook of her neck. "Not now."
She looked into my eyes. "Will you come tomorrow night too?"
I laughed, "baby, i'll come whenever you want me to."
"Tomorrow night it is." She climbed out of the car after giving me a kiss on the cheek and ran back into her house.
I let a breath go and rolled a small baggie of weed.
