Me,Lauren and Andy were tasked with handing out supplies to the new refugees that came in yesterday.Sentinel Services is really hitting back and hard at us,rooms are getting filled and some people have had to give up their beds just to give it to other refugees.
I carry the cart of water bottles and walk up the stairs with the siblings,listening along to their small conversation.
"Atleast,we got beds."
I hear Andy say.
"You do know were the reason there is a rush,right?"
Lauren asks and i laugh,with that brain of his?Impossible.
"Sentinel Services has been freaking out over us.Kind of all our fault.."
Lauren says while sighing.I shrugged my shoulders,what's done is done.Besides,we wouldn't of had to do that if they hadn't given us a reason to in the first place.
"Thanks for the guilt trip."
Andy said sarcastically.He turns to me as i set up the water bottles and give them to the refugees passing by.
"Wanna give up your bed?"
He asks.I stop in my tracks and look at him,glaring him down.I then grab a bottle and screw the cap open,looking as if i was about to splash it all over him.
He laughs and puts his arms over his face to protect himself.
"I know,shut up and get more water!"
He said and put his hands up in defeat.I lift myself up on my tip toes as he walks away and ruffle his hair,acting as if he was a dog.
"Good boy."
I say and Lauren just giggles at me.I throw some blankets onto the beds but in the corner of my eye,i see a black-haired boy who looked more of a younger version of Marcos with no facial hair grab a bag from a guy and jog to Lauren.
"Hey,are there any other flavours?Other than Salsberry Steak?"
He asks,he looks as if he was just trying ro grab an excuse to talk to Lauren and i smirk.
"They're all the same."
Lauren said and walked opposite me and crouched down,grabbing some pillows.
"Ok,"
He says while chuckling.This boy has a rough challenge up ahead,Lauren is NOT easy to get.
"You take care of refugees?What's your name?"
The guy said,i looked at Lauren with one eyebrow raised.
'Tell him!'
I mimed but she shook her head side to side and stood up again,turning to face the boy.
"My name is I have work to do."
Lauren said and i facepalmed myself,ever since Jack bailed her because of his pussycat self,she didn't want a boyfriend.I NEED to get her a guy,if she is closed off like me before,i will throw myself out of a window and bang my head on a concrete wall i swear.
"What if,you were already done?"
He said and waved his hands at the refugee entrance,suddenly a sort of cloak or a mirage appeared and made it seem like everything was tidy and perfect.
Lauren furrowed her eyebrows while slightly smiling at the mirage and lifted her hand out and slowly poked it,the mirage disappeared to uncloak the fact that everybody was still working.
"I'm Wes."
He introduced himself.
"Nice to meet you,Wes."
Lauren said and walked away from us both.He chuckled and i tapped him on the shoulder,making him turn around.
"She's a tough one,you know.Play your cards right,you might have a chance on getting her."
I said and emphasize the word might.
"You know her?"
Wes asks,his gaze lifting as if i could help him.I nod while laughing and take a gulp of my water.
"I'll help you with her,she needs to get a man."
I say and walk away from Wes,going to find Andy since he never came back.
As i found Andy talking to John,Marcos and Reed i hear them say something about the 'Baton Rouge Federal Building' and hide behind the corner to listen to their conversation.
