A Thugs Bestfriend

Chapter 1

" Goodmorning" I said to Chres as he walked into the kitchen. I was cooking breakfast for him and I. My mom had left to go to work an hour ago.

"What you making?" he said looking over my shoulder.

"Pancakes, bacon, and eggs. Want some?" i said pouring the egg yolk into the pan.

"Some of your delicious cooking, hell yeah." he grinned.

"Stawp" i said tryna hold my smile in.

" You got your hot breath on the food" i joked pushing him outta the way.

" Whatever." he said rolling his eyes.

" What we doing today?" i said handing him his plate.

" Boss wants to see us today about something, thats what Dion txted me this morning." he said.

"Ohh shit. This cant be good." i said shaking my head.

"That's what i said. We haven't fucked up lately so i think we in the clear. Maybe he got a job for us or somethin."

"Maybe." i said.

After breakfast we headed out to pick up Dion since this nigga's license is suspended. Don't even ask how.

Dion came outside tryna look fly as usual. He got inside the car as we blasted August Alsina- Numb. I was nervous to go see Carlos our boss because i've only seen him once and it was when i first started. I walked in on him beating the crap outta this guy who was $300 short. After watching that i made sure i always paid him the right everytime.

We arrived there in 10 minutes, pulling into the back. His guards let us into Carlos's office. It was a big room with leather seats and ivory walls. He sat in his giant chair, smoking a blunt and signing some papers. My heels clicked across the cement floor as we proceeded to the seats in front of us.

He looked up, his green eyes watching our every move, making me uncomfortable. " Goodmorning" he said in a dark tone.

"Goodmorning" we said in unison.

" The three of you are my best sellers, never short change me and always get the job done but today i have something new for you to do. I need you to kill a couple of sellers who have invaded my streets. Derek and Sean will give you the address and i expect you to follow his rules. This is your first killing but not the last. Please don't fuck up and leave it messy. I want it clean. Do you understand?!" he barked.

"Yes." we said. He nodded and gestured for us to leave. I have to admit i was beyond nervous. I had never killed anyone before and i was scared shitless.

"Alright. Listen to me and listen closely. You go in and get out. No fingerprints, no witnesses unless they are children who cant testify, no mercy and no evidence. I have a map of the place and a time frame. This whole thing should not be longer than 10 minutes, you hear. You spray the rooms with bullets." Derek said.

" Remember no witnesses and no trace of evidence left behind." Sean said.

We grabbed the map and got back in the car, driving to my place to discuss the plan.

" We're not this today right? I have something to do." Dion said.

"Yeah we are. He wouldn't tell us this information for nothing. Were you even listening?" Chres said shifting his eyes from the road to Dion back and forth.

" Kayla is coming over today for the weekend. You know i only have weekend vistations!" he complained.

"Just drop her off at your moms house for tonight." Chres said.

"My mom aint gonna be home, and ya know that! Imma have to just bring her along with us." he said mumbling the last part.

"Are you stupid, simple or slow?! She is staying with your mom, you are not bringing her with us. This shit is dangerous." Chres barked.

"U know how my mom is." Dion said in a serious tone.

Back in high school, Dion was dating this girl named Gina. She was loud and ghetto as hell, always thinking somebody was trying to steal her man. She was spanish and black, with a lip and nose piercing. We were at Chres's house party when Dion got her knocked up. He took care of her for the whole pregnancy but after the baby was born, they fell apart. Dion started cheating on her all the time and she found out about it and beat the girl's ass. She took him to court and put him on child support and let him have Kayla for the weekends. Dion's mom always got into it with Gina every time she saw her because of Gina's mouth. Every time Dion goes to her house with Kayla, she lectures him about taking Kayla for full custody because she doesn't want Kayla to grow up into his lifestyle.

" I'll watch her." i volunteered .

" Boss isn't going to allow you to ditch this." Chres said.

" Yea, thanks but no thanks. I'll try to find a babysitter." Dion said.

"Fine." i mumbled and slumped in the back seat. Well i guess that plan is out of the question.

Toughen up Amelia! i said to myself. I can handle this. Don't show fear. Don't show fear. Don't show fear. Don't show fear.

We went inside my house, and set the map on table which consisted of a blueprint of the place. 16 rooms, 8 offices, and a bathroom with every room.

"Alright, so you two are going to hide in the bushes and wait for my signal. Then when i give the signal , you put on the silencer and aim for the guards by the front doors heads. Then we clear all the rooms, remember no witnesses." Chres said taking charge.

" We head out at 10." He continued.
