Whispered Past(Book 2 of Forgotten Series)

Chapter 16

Drakes perspective.

Damn my life.

Standing on the roof of two crying females did not make my list of things I would rather be doing. I simply wanted to release some of my irritation on someone. It was killing me to sit still for too long. Not only that the bastards expected me to leave Carmen to Yessica. Right. As if I could do that. I had to make sure she was okay at least. No I had to keep her safe. Screw all these other people.

"You really need to calm down."

I turned my eyes to Kory and folded my arms across my chest."You getting anything new?"

Korys red eyes shifted green and he smirked."Who do you think your asking?"

I cracked my knuckles a bit."Hows the reckless idiot?"

"She's fine."

I raised my eyebrowI noticed since we had been here Kory had been going off on his own coming back looking dazed. I didnt mention it. I knew Kory well enough to know what he was doing. It did bother me a bit at times but then again I knew it was better for Kory to handle the situation then anyone else.

"Stay here and dont move Drakey."

I sighed."Stop."

Kory paused and responded to my thoughts."Yes I am about to go again. When that child gets here knock her out by force. She needs to rest."

I smirked imagining it."With pleasure."

Kory left leaving me on the roof alone again to contemplate everything. My phone vibrated and I sighed. Michael? I answered it reluctantly.

"You mad im not Carmen?"

"Very."I responded evenly not in the mood to joke around.

"Thats harsh. I wanted to let you know I saw Kory heading off again."

I answered calmly."I already talked with him."

"For real?"

"Yes."

"How was he?"
"Terrible."

Michael sighed."You think hes still sealing it?"
"I would guess so.His eyes were green briefly."

A silence fell on us.

Michael was the first to break it."Alright. We have to go threw with the plan when Ty gets back and rest. It would be hard to explain to her whats going on here."

I sighed."Everything is hard to explain to that lost cause....Carmen!"

Carmen sighed when she layed her eyes on me. She ran across the street and stood in front of the house on her tip toes so she could see me better. I hung up and jumped down looking her over quickly and sighing."Your okay?"

"Yes I am. Im fine."

I rubbed a hand threw her hair and kissed her. She groaned and pushed me.

"I saw you literally like ten minutes ago!"

"Ten minutes is all it takes."

She waved me off causing my heart to ache a bit. I grabbed her hands."Carmen. Baby. You know all I want is for us to be happy. Why cant you understand that? We already have a family together."

"Drake!This is not the time."She did smile a bit.

I smirked."Your right. Did you find anything when you were with Yessica?"

She nodded."I found out I was right. Splitting up is stupid and you white people are going to get one of us black people killed first."

I smiled and shook my head. Only Carmen could influence me  like this. I shook my head again a small chuckle escaping my closed lips."Your silly. Are you tired?"
