*Sammy*
I sat outside the venue. People have been long gone and it was about four in the morning. I sat on a stoop.

"Hey Sammy." I turned and Nate was standing there.

"Hey Nate. You have my stuff?" I said jokingly. He gave me an eye.

"You're still into that shit?"

"It was more of a joke but I don't know. Now that I have Taylor back, I know I need to go back to not doing it."

"Remember what happened when you stopped last time?" Nate sat down next to me.

"I rather not revisit that." I said.

"You might need some help then. You don't want to be that person."

"I'm never going to be that person. Not again." I told him, but it was more of a reassurance to me.

"And Taylor never knew about this?" Nate said amazed.

"Nah. Only Gilinsky and Johnson and you. Well, Mallory knows about Johnson and Gilinksy. I don't think Jack told Leigh. Not exactly something any of are proud of."

"How does Mallory know?"

"She found a stash in Johnson's room in Omaha. She was really sweet about it, but he stopped."

"You have always been the biggest addict I have ever know." I hit him.

"Shut up. I've cooled down a little."

"You are right. I'm proud of you." He said. I thought he was sarcastic but he was looking at me in genuine.

*Andrea*
I turned the corner to find Sammy and Nate. They were stalling I think, but we seriously needed to go if we wanted to get to San Fran. I looked over the entire area until I heard talking outside. I followed it and was about to step out before I heard something.

"And Taylor never knew about this?" Nate said.

"Nah. Only Gilinsky and Johnson and you. Well, Mallory knows about Johnson and Gilinksy. I don't think Jack told Leigh. Not exactly something any of are proud of." I heard Sammy sigh.

"How does Mallory know?"

"She found a stash in Johnson's room in Omaha. She was really sweet about it, but he stopped."

"You have always been the biggest addict I have ever know."

"Shut up. I've cooled down a little."

"You are right. I'm proud of you." What were they talking about? Sam was addicted to what? I stepped back and pretended to be talking while walking. I stepped out.

"Guys! We have to go!" I said. They both looked at me and stood up. I couldn't look them in the eyes so I let them walk first.

Should I tell Taylor?

*Bree*
I sat at the table waiting for some people to come in and interview me or whatever they were going to do. I played with my hands. I'm kind of nervous to see what shit they have against me. The door opened and in walked some lady.

"Bree Del a Rosa? My name is Michelle Williams, and I'm your attorney." She offered me a smile but I didn't need that right now.

"What do you have for me?" I asked her.

"Well, we have some suspicions held against you."

"Hit me." I said and I leaned back in my chair.

"We have a suspect that identified you as murdering their older brother." I almost fell out of my chair.

"What?" I said. I mean, I expected so pretty messed up shit, but what?
