Drew

We sat in my parked car, watching the door to a bar that I had tracked Roberts phone to.

Only my Emma would be near death experience one minute and crime fighting the next.

Gotta give it to the girl, she's badass.

Anywho.

"So. Character profile. Robert Kingston, age 52, occupation: 'A' class dickhead." I slumped in my seat and put my feet on the dash.

"Weaknesses and strengths?" Em raised a brow.

"If we're following Danny's all to wise mantra of 'stregths are our weaknesses' I would say ego. Beat him at his own game."

"How?"

"Well, we have to turn his mind games on him. Just like with Danny, get something on him and manipulate him into... Getting him out of our lives. But I've got no idea what could break him like that."

"Well let's find out, he's leaving." She nodded.

I sat up and waited a moment as he drove away

"Let's go." I turned in the ignition and started driving down the road behind him.

"He's heading out of town..." Emma said.

"And I know exactly where he's going..." I changed lanes and split off the highway.

"Good time to explain Clousseau?'

"Remember mother dearest?" I sighed.

"Oh no. Drew that woman..." Emma shook her head and folded her arms, slumping in the dear

"I know, but we need to know what's going on. Plus, If she says says or does anything remotely offensive to you, you know I won't hesitate to say something." I raised a brow, focusing on the road as we approached the trailer park.

"Andrew? And his little... whatever you are." She waved Emma off.

"Charming as ever Lisa." Em rolled her eyes

She scowled and I said "Ladies. Well, more like lady and...it." I glanced to Lisa.

"Your delightful ex is on his way over here. So I've predicted. We've got 5 minutes. You lied when we were here last time. Why?"

"Oh in 5 minutes ? I couldn't possibly explain. Even if there was something to explain."

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and said "Oh you're so infuriating."

"And so are you dear son." She said.

"Okay! Look, I don't like you! If that wasn't clear enough. And I should really because your technically going to be my mother in law or whatever!" Emma started to say

"You're ex is a complete d*ck and you know that else you would still be together doing what ever it is you would be doing. Deep down, you know something's up and don't give me all the lying bullsh*t. In the past 50 hours I was nearly killed and lost my weight in blood! So you help us now or so help me God!"

My eyes widened and I looked to Lisa who appeared taken back.

"... Come in." She said.

"Well played baby." I said quietly, close to her ear as we followed Lisa inside.

"I try."

"Where are you going?" I said quietly to myself as I followed John's car upon Drew's order's.
