I sat with Chris in the park outside his apartment complex. "You know I didn't think you'd get this far or last this long." I looked at him, I've been with him for exactly 7 days, I think Rosie gave up looking for me. "Hush, Chris of little faith," I said with a smile on my face, I felt pretty confident. I haven't seen my mug any wear so I guess it's gone. Part of me doesn't mind since I've been living with Chris I've eaten and showered every day. I feel like I should get a sticker, a pat on the back or something, anything.

I've figured out I'm not that far from home only a few hours and Chris has been trying to convince me to go home.

But I know that King's angry and I can't do that to them.

He laid back on the bench we sat on, "hey Chris, where do you work" he looked at me with a serious face, the air was still and he lower his eyes.

"Some bar"
He smiled, I let go of my breath, "you're so cute" I froze "h-huh?" He chuckled "I'm not gonna fuck you cause I called you cute dude, calm down."

I don't think I've ever been called cute, have I? Has King ever called me cute?
My eyes wondered around the park, I saw someone standing by the swings, they looked really fancy. My first though was someone must've been playing with their kid. The man was wearing a suit and was on the phone.

Rude

I looked around some more and found another man like that, he was by the garage by the apartment building.
I started seeing them everywhere, all on the phone, all in suits.

"Hey Chris, look-"
They all looked at me, "what"
"Chris let's g-go inside" he sat up and looked around and must've felt the same aura I was. "Yeah ok"

We walked up the steps and I looked over the side railing and they were following us. "C-Chris they're coming" I whisper-yelled, "ok, ok I'm opening the door." We walked in the apartment I slammed the door. Chris stood in the hall way, "what a-are you doing" I walked up and someone sat on the couch. My stomach flipped inside out, "Noah, don't move."
The person stood up he crossed his arms. "Puppy come here now" he said calmly. I whimpered "Puppy now" I slipped out from behind Chris, I walked in front of him.
My heart was racing, all the stuff I've done came flooding back in my memory. All the rules I broke, I looked up at him. King stared down at me with a menacing glare. "Noah, who the fuck is that?" Chris cried before I could speak King's hand met my face with a hard slap. "What the fuck man" King pulled a gun from his side. "You stay there and don't fucking move" King hissed. "Puppy what did Rosie tell you? I was keeping count, and since I lost you, I had to come to find you." I played with my fingers, my head still hurt from the slap he gave me. "What did I say when I left, WHAT DID I SAY?"
I looked at him "that you'd be back in a few days." That was another slap I knew that Chris was wanting to help, my cheeks were red with blush, this is embarrassing, I had just gotten used to being a normal person again. "Don't leave the house until you come to get me." He looked at Chris who fearlessly glared at him. "Who is he?" He asked walking over to him "h-he's a friend" "but not one you've known long" he asked his angry tone cutting through the air. He gripped Chris's hair pulling his hair back and pointing the gun to his throat. "S-stop it" I cried walking over to them I pulled on Kings shirt. He wore a clean suit, "what happens when people break the rules?" "Please don't kill him" "what did I tell you would happen when you broke the rules." "I'm sorry, I-I'm sorry" I sobbed. "Fucking answer me Puppy tell me what I said about the rules."

"They were l-l-like sins and no one was b-bigger no one was smaller, and if I-I break the rules, y-you break me."
I sobbed and stuttered on the phrase, he clicked the gun, "stop it! Don't he didn't know he didn't do anything." He looked at me "you wanted me to come back Puppy here I am, you've been very bad I said be good for Rosie. You were mean to Lauren again you disobeyed. Every. Single. Rule. All of them, you left, and then I can't see you anymore. Do you know how many people I had to call to find you? How much money I had to spend tracking down who your friend was." I sniffled clinging onto the arm that held the gun to Chris's head praying to whoever would listen for him not to hurt Chris. "Chris Spade, he's a gang leader, he's got an older brother, he's killed some people but I'm not better. Shot his mom and dad when he had to move up in the gang. He stays here usually on week days. The weekends are work days, and imagine if you would've disobeyed him. Puppy he wouldn't have given you a fighting chance would've tried to shoot you in the head." "Ok I-I'm sorry, you're worse than him." I argued "Please gangs are pathetic people that get together and get in fights over who standing on what street corner." I looked at Chris who was staring at me with a sad look. "S-stop being mean, please don't hurt him." He bent down lowering the gun. "You've got to learn what I mean by breaking the rules."

Gunshot

"I'll break you"

I heard Chris screams, rip through the silence that came for a second. I was really happy to hear his screams.

That meant he was alive.
He was shot in the thigh. He fell to the ground "I'll be keeping track of you Spade so don't go anywhere ok?"
I fell to his side trying to plug up the flowing blood. He looked at me with a glossy-eyed look he hasn't said anything. I knew this was my fault, I should've said no to staying with him, he's going to die because of me. I felt King pick me up, my feet were sticky with blood, it was on my hands and my clothes I was hiccuping and snot running down my nose, he pulled out a cloth wiping my face. "I've missed you Puppy" he cooed kissing my cheek making me whimper. I wrapped my legs around his torso and my head on his neck. I stared at Chris as he looked at me with his emotionless eyes.

"I-I missed you to sir"

Authors note: I have a person in my life currently who is my 'King' they're emotionally and mentally abusive and they're no good and cause a lot of pain mentally and really they aren't good for the soul. But they've currently implanted the idea in my head that they are good and that it's all my fault.
