EMBROIL [BOOK ONE]

Title 18: Runaway

~Published July 5, 2017~

It was eight in the morning and I was rushing around like a mad woman making sure I had everything. After last night Fiona found out where Ian was being held. So now I was waiting for Danny to come and pick me up so we can head over to military prison. Mickey was suppose to take all of us but Iggy took his car to do who knows what? Luckily Sean was nice enough to drive Fiona, Mickey and her siblings while I catch a ride with Danny. What am I suppose to say once I arrive? I checked in my mirror by the front door to make sure I looked some what presentable. There was a honk outside my house. I walked over to pull back my curtain and there was Danny waiting for me. I did my final check of making sure I had my phone, wallet, keys, and finally walked out of the house. I hurried over to her car and hopped in. 

"Morning, here I got you coffee." Danny held out a cup towards me. 

"Thank you. This is very much needed." I buckled myself in and then took the cup.

"Well Lip texted me the address. Supposedly he got one of his college buddies to give him a ride." She stated but something was off with her. 

"Are you okay?" I asked as I watched her pull away from my house and began driving.

"I don't know but one thing I do know is that Lip is screwing someone new." She let out a tired sigh as she kept driving.

"What makes you think that?" I watched her as I sipped on my coffee. 

She was looking both ways before she kept driving. She had her bottom lip in between her teeth trying to calm herself, "I just know how he is. When I offer to hang out he gets all skiddish or I call him he sends me to voicemail." 

"Maybe he is swamped with homework?" I tried to come up with some excuse but of course it was a pretty lame one.

She rolled her eyes, "That's definitely not it because that is when he needs me the most."

I cringed at the information, "Well just ask him." 

She put her car on park in front of the Gallagher house and turned towards me, "Well why didn't I think of that?" She sarcastically asked herself with a roll of her eyes, "Oh yeah that's because he ignores my calls! Have you not been listening?"

"Jesus I'm sorry." I leaned back into the seat and look out of the windshield in front of me, "What are we doing here? I thought Sean was taking everyone?"

"Fiona called me asking me to stop here so then I can follow them. She wants us all to get there at the same time." She explained as she leaned her head on her hand.

I watched the house and my chest felt like it was about to burst once I saw a two faced blonde bitch walking down the front steps, "How dare she show up after what she did?" I unbuckled my seat belt and darted out of the car. I could hear Danny yelling at me to stop but I paid no mind to her, "Hey Sammi!"

Sammi turned around with her eyes bulging out of her head, "You stay away from me!" She struggled to balance the box she had in her hands as she tried to fish something out of her pocket.

"You have some nerve to show your ugly pug face around here." I was filled with rage. I slapped the box out of her hands, "Who do you think you are huh?"

She put her hands up to prevent me from beating the shit out of her, "I said you stay the hell away from me!"

"Jo stop!" Danny yelled from somewhere behind me. 

"I'll stay away once I get to kick the shit out of you." As promised I gripped her hair in my hands and started thrashing her around, "What are you going to do now Sammi? Are you going to call the cops on me too?"
