Thorn
"You need to stop causing trouble" I groan.
"I'm a teenager," Slade looks up at me, "what do you expect?" he turns his head.
"Maybe stop fighting with kids?" I roll my eyes.
He turns to me. "Coming from the world's most famous boxer"
I sigh. "What's up with you? You're so... protective anymore. Over what?" I ask.
He frowns. "Her name is Beth"
I smirk and cross my arms. "Go on"
"These guys bullies her a whole ass lot. But, I don't jump in... I watch" he clenches his jaw and my eyes widen. "BUT once the bell rings I threaten them... beat them... hold a gun up to their head and make them swear to leave her alone and to never speak of our encounter to anyone. They never bother her again and I see that look on her face, wondering where her bullies are and why they stop"
"Wait... so she doesn't know you're... helping her?" I ask in confusion.
He shrugs. "No... and I don't want her to. I'm the big guy, remember dad? I'm an Archer! A dangerous psychotic killer... I can't let anyone know I secretly help this girl"
"Do you like her?" I raise an eyebrow.
"She's... she's pretty" he looks down.
"That's my boy!" I ruffle his hair. "Listen, you wanna be a police officer right?"
He nods. "Yea... yea I do"
"Well you gotta be able to accept the fact sooner or later that you'll be helping people" I say.
"Dadddd, I'm only fourteen! I still have four years to go" he says.
Oh yea, when he turns eighteen we plan to force the department to hire an eighteen year old. Of course with our name and who we are.
"Maybe, but it'll help" I say.
He sighs and shakes his head. "I guess. I just don't like being...-"
"Social? Talked to?" I cut him off.
He gulps. "Yea, that"
"Well you have to be in order to be a cop" Hurricane walks in. "Think about your future, baby" she smiles.
Slade looks at her and groans. "Could you guys please quit nagging me? I know what I'm doing here and I am thinking of my future. Don't worry about me, I got this"
