"Unique"

Chapter 20

The whole night I've been tossing and turning. I can't seem to get those kids out of my head. I have a feeling that I shouldn't have left them there. What if something happens to them? I should have stayed with them until there parents came. But why should I care I mean there not my kids. I care because there fucking kids.

I rolled out of bed and slipped on my Nike slides and grabbed a jacket. I then went into my closet and grabbed a gun and my knife and tucked them into the pockets of my shorts. It's like 2 in the morning you never now what's going to happen this time a night.

I then went in Coles room and carefully picked him up and put a jacket on him. I then carried him out to the car and buckled him in his car seat and I went to the drivers side.

I drove to the mall which took about 5 minutes because there was less traffic. When I got to the mall I drove around looking for them. I didn't see them anywhere in the parking lot or on the curves. But then I remembered that there was a little alley where the trash cans and where trucks went. I drove to the alley and looked for them.

When I got to the alley I saw two adults standing over something in the alley. I hopped out the car and locked the doors leaving it running. I could here what sounded like whimpering. I gripped my gun in my shorts pocket and walked up to them. When I got closer I could see that there was a body on the ground. "Fuck you. You bastard. You can't do shit I don't know why we kept you." A man shouted kicking the body. A scream came out from the body.

I ran up to them and pulled them away from the body. It was the boy on the ground with his body hovering over the baby's trying to protect her. I felt something grab my shoulder pulling me back. "Get the fuck out of her you bitch" said pushing me away. But I didn't move, I looked at the couple in front of me. It was a white man who looked to be in his 30s and a black women who looked to also be in her 30s.

"No I'm good" I said pushing him back. "If i were you I would leave"

"Bitch leave and mind your fucking business." The women yelled steeping in front of him. Like what the fuck she gone do 'protect' him.

"Bitch this is my business. You think you can just go around beating up kids nah bitch fuck you" I said punching her in the face.

The women stumbled back bumping into the man. The man pushed the women behind him and he swung at me. I quickly dodged his punch and punched him in his face hard enough to knock him out. He fell to the ground and the women looked at me scared. "What's the matter bitch don't be scared now" I said walking up go to her.

She turned around and started to run out of the alley, but I caught up to her and punched her nocking her out. Should I kill them? I mean duh what kind of question is that. I pulled out my phone and text John to call somebody and to come and get them and bring them to his warehouse. I don't really know how the boy would feel about me killing his parents so maybe I won't kill them just keep them there until they die.

I walked up to the boy who was now sitting in the corner crying holding the baby. I gently touched his shoulder to get him to look at me but he didn't. "Come on, look at me" I said softly.

He didn't say anything but cried harder. Well shit what do I do now?

I picked the boy up and cried him back to the car. It wasn't that hard because the boy was practically bones. He was taller than me but he was really skinny. I put him in the front seat and closed the door. He still had he baby in his hands but I don't know how I feel about that but there's nothing I can really do about that.

I drove out of the alley and headed back to my house. I tried making small talk with the boy telling him that I was gone help him and that he can stay with me but he didn't say anything but cry. I know exactly how he is feeling I myself used to get abused and now exactly how it feels but I just kept quiet the rest of the way.

When we pulled up to my house I cut the car off and got out. I went around to the boys side and opened the door and motioned for him to get out. I then went the back seat and got Cole out who was nocked out. Cole sleep through all this shit. I wish I could sleep that good. We then went inside the house and upstairs.

I put Cole back in his bed and took off his jacket. The boy was in the door way with the baby. "Come on are you hungry." I asked going downstairs to the kitchen.

When we got down stairs I looked through the kitchen for something to eat. The only thing I had was the stake, I pulled it out and defrost it. "You can sit down if you want" I told the boy who was standing on the doorway. He walked in the kitchen and sat down on one of the stools surrounding the island. "So what's your name" I asked him.

He didn't say anything but looked away. "Well my name is Rose" I said. "Dante" he muttered. I wouldn't be able to hear him if I wasn't listing real close. "And what's her name" I asked pointing at the baby

"She doesn't have one" he said

What kind of parent does this I'm just amazed this is some different type of low shit.

"Well she's going to need a name, how about you pick one for her" I asked him leaning on the island.

The boy looked at me confused. "How about skylar" he said

"That sounds great" I said leaning back up and walking over to the stake to cook them.

After I cooked the stake I put it in front of the boy and sat next to him. "So do you want to talk about what happen" I asked

He shook his head no looking down. "Well do you want me to take Skylar so you can eat" I asked.
The boy looked down at the baby and up at me trying to decide if he wanted to give her to me. "I'm not going to hurt her" I told him reaching for the baby. When I got the baby she was still sleep so I didn't really do anything. I need to talk to the boy about what he wants to do. Does he want to go to an orphanage or what. I mean he can stay with me if he would like but I don't know if he wants to but I'll talk to him about that tomorrow.

•••

"Okay come on I'll show you to your room." I told Dante standing up form the stool.

I took Dante to the guest bedroom opposite of Coles. "So you can stay in here do you want Skylar to stay with you" i know that he probably will because he doesn't know me but I think that him taking care of her with him still being young himself is to much.

"Yeah I want her to stay with me" he said grabbing Skylar from me.

"Okay well do you want to take a shower. I have some clothes if you do" i asked

He shook his head yeah and placed Skylar down on the bed and covered her up. He then took all the pillows off the bed. "Okay the bathroom is right there I have some clothes you can wear." I said pointing at the bathroom door.

I went back in my room and looked through my closet for Dante something to wear. I got him one of my Nike shirts and some joggers along with some boxers. Yes I have boxers there comfortable to sleep in. Men's clothes in general are way more comfortable than women's that's why I boy more men's clothes than women's.

I went back into Dante's room and put the clothes on his bed. If I had clothes for the baby I would give her some but I don't so there's nothing I can really do. I went back to my room and watched tv waiting for Dante to come out the shower.

•••25 minutes later••••
I away from my tv to see Dante in the door way. "Hey" I said sitting up.
"Hi" Dante walked into my room.
"I just wanted to say thank you for helping me tonight and earlier" he said looking at the floor.
"It's okay and your welcome" I smiled at him.
"Go get some sleep and we'll talk about it more tomorrow okay" I said

Dante nodded his head and walked out of the room. I don't know what I'm going to do. I have to leave tomorrow but then now I have Dante and Skylar with me. If I take them to an orphanage tomorrow I'll have to stay a couple of days probably and that's if they want to go to one. I don't really want them to go to an orphanage because they'll split them up and Dante is really protective of Skylar.

I don't know but now I'm really tired and need to go to sleep because of this long drive tomorrow. And now I also have to buy shit for Dante and Skylar which is gone be a ton of fucking money. I mean it's not that I don't want to it's just that I have been spending money on dumb shit recently and I usually don't spend money on stuff like that.
