My Cigar

Threat

Sorry for the late update school is making me cry in the club

_____

I woke up on the opposite side of the bed that Race was peacefully sleeping on. I stretched my back out and letsAWWA out a yawn. I was pretty tired from- HOLY SHIT. WAIT.

DID I JUST DO IT? I'M ONLY 15. Well I guess the lesson here is do as I say not as I do.

After I was finished mentally panicking, I felt Race waking up. I turned my body and wrapped my arms around his shirtless body. He opened his eyes and smiled when he felt my arms around him. He put an arm around me and kissed my forehead.

"Mornin doll face." He says with a raspy morning voice.

"Good morning." I say softly burring my head in his chest.

"Are you worried about Jack?" He asked. My heart sank. Holy shit how do I forget about that? I shoot my body up.

"OH NO." I say putting my hands over my face. Rave just continued to lay there and started to snicker.

"Why are you laughing aren't you scared?" I ask confused.

"Cause he ain't in town." He laughs. I grab a pillow and hit him with it as he laughs more.

"I hate you." I say as I can't help but smile at his cute laugh. 

"You love me." He smirks pulling me back on top of him. He pulls me in for a kiss and his lips begin to wander down my neck. I push him away and he gives me a confused look.

"What's wrong?" He ask.

"I don't want you to leave marks and end up getting us both killed." I say rubbing my neck.

"Oh come on. You're gonna worry about a hickey now? Even afta last night?" Race teases as I roll my eyes. I get up and start putting my clothes back on.

"Can't we lay here longer? I was nice n cozy." Race wines.

"We gotta sell we're already an hour late."

"So?" Race says as he pulls me. "We's can sell extra tomorrow."

"Where did Jack go?" I ask sitting on the bed. "And why didn't he tell me?"

"I heard he went to check up on Elton. He ain't doin to good after the whole leader incident." Race tells me as he runs his fingers gently through my hair.

"I feel horrible for him. Especially since Katie took his spot." I say in a disgusted tone as I lay down.

"Yup, she's somethin else." Race sighs putting his hands behind his head.  He looks down at me as I gaze at the ceiling. He gets up and picks up the bottle of wine. Yea... that bottle. He pulls of the cork and takes a sip. I look at him shocked.

"Race what are you doin?" I say quickly gettin up and taking it out of his hand.

"What? Didn't you wanna drink it last night?" He asked.

"I didn't need to and neither do you." I say putting the cork back on. How did he pull it off so easily? Don't you need that screw thingy?

"Now as much as I like seeing you shirtless, you gotta put your shirt and shoes on cause we gotta get back to the lodging house." I say putting the wine bottle back on the fire place. Race laugh's and grabbed his shirt. We both fixed ourselves and headed out of the building. We walked back to the lodging house. But once we were in front, I saw Sly standing by a near building. He was looking around clueless.

"Sly?" I ask. Race looks at me then at Sly. Sly's eyes go wide.

"Kenny! You gotta hide!" Sly says running up to us.

"What, why?" I ask worried.

"Cause Katie is lookin for you and she isn't happy." He says.

"What does she want?" Race steps forward getting mad. I held his arm and pulled him back looking in his eyes telling him to calm down.

"A Queens newsie spotted you two... doin stuff, and they told her and now she is fumin." He says. I slap myself in the forehead as I cringe at the fact that Katie, and Sly know what me and Race were up to.

"Why is she angry about it? This is none of her business." Race says with anger in his voice.

"She's still obsessed with you Higgins. Kenny you have to-" Sly gets cut off.

"KENDALL KELLY!" Katie screams. She was wearing a poofy white dress and a whit sun hat with a baby pink ribbon around it to match. She stormed over in her fancy white heels. This bitch lookin like a snowman.

"How dare you do over step your boundaries?" She says.

"You never gave me boundaries. You just wined about how Race is gonna come back to you. Doesn't seem so possible now does it." I snap back.

"You don't know what you're asking for." She growls.

"RACE ISN'T YOURS!" I yell. "You really think your gonna scare me? You already tried that and guess what it didn't work!"

"Oh trust me, i've been playing nice."

"Katie get out of here." Race growls stepping forward..

"Oh please. You know you want me back Racey." She pouts as she puts her arms around Race's neck. Race stood tense, but didn't push her off. Why isn't he pushing her off?

"Katie take your hands off of him." Sly says. Katie looks back at Sly surprised as he hands slid off of Race.

"Oh. You wanna be on team Kelly? I could just execute you right now, you know that right?" She says slowly walking over to him. Holy shit this bitch psycho.

"Hey! He has nothing to do with this." I speak up.

"I find it cute how you're sticking up for him. Maybe he can be your new beau once Race is back with me." She smirks. Race just watched her with anger in his eyes.

"Go back to Queens Katie." I growl. She starts to laugh.

"I'm not going that easily sweetie. You asked for a storm so it's coming for you." She says walking up to me.

"Here's how it is going to work. You and Race break up... or I tell Jack."

My heart stopped.

Race and I look at each other with blank faces.

"...Y-You can't do that." I say quietly.

"Oh yes I can." She shoots back quickly. "And this little thing..." She says reaching into her tiny purse. She pulled out my mothers ring. I look down at my hand to see it magically off my finger.

"That's impossible! I never took it off. How did you-" I start.

"I have my ways. I'll burn this thing in a heart beat. So you can lose your ring, your brother, and Race."

"Give me back my ring." I step closer to her.

"Kenny relax." Race steps closer to me.

"I said GIVE ME THE RING KATIE!" I scream.

"Or what?" she yells over me. I let out a growl as I jump towards her but am immediately caught in Race's arms and pulled to his chest. I squirm in his arms as my anger takes over me. Katie laughs as she walks off.

"MY RING!" I scream as I start to cry. "Give it back PLEASE!" I sob desperately. She disapered and I fall to the ground on my knees. "I need that ring." I cry as if I witnessed a murder. Race quickly pulls me up and holds me tight in his arms. He just let me cry into his arms. He didn't say anything. And Sly painfully watched as I break down over a ring. My mothers ring. A wave of anger filled my body. I grip Race's vest as I think about how much I wanted to get back at Katie. This girl is a monster. And i'm not letting her win.
