Chapter 5

The song is Cooler Than Me by Mike Posner!

(Hopes POV)

     I was woken up from how cold I was feeling. I open my eyes and look around me, I was in a bare room with only a door across from where I was laying, which was on the concrete ground. I sit up as my head starts to pound from a hangover. If I'm getting a hangover now, how long was I out for?! I stand up and go to the door and try to wiggle it, only to find it locked. Of course they're going to lock it Hope, they kidnapped you, they don't want you walking around whatever this place is. 

     I feel for my switchblade and find it gone as well as my phone and wallet. Great, so Autumn or Jell can't find where I'm at, that's just great. I start to bang on the door, hopefully to get someone's attention. After a few moments of unsuccessful attempts for someone to notice me, I go back to where I was laying down and sit down. As I sat down, the door opened up and there stood Wildcat shirt and blue hoodie. Blue hoodie was holding a black assault rifle in his hand.

     "Come on, Vanoss has a few things to say to you." Wildcat shirt said. 

     I get up as fear started to run through my head as I realize how stupid I was back at the nightclub for not realizing who these guys were. They're part of the most notorious gang in Los Santos, the Vanoss Crew. I go to the door and glare at both of them as they walk me away from the room. I felt the cold barrel of the gun against my back. Wildcat shirt looks back at me and blue hoodie.

     "I don't think Vanoss is going to like that, he said only use it if she's going to try something." He says. Blue hoodie scoffs.

     "Yeah well, Vanoss can kiss my ass. You too Wildcat." Blue hoodie says, pushing the barrel harder in my back. 

     Well, at least his name I can remember because of his shirt. I look around where we're going in case I can get out of here. I noticed that we're in what looks like to be a biker clubhouse. Wildcat walks up some stairs into a loft area. There was a pool table where beach guy, Pogo mask, and Brian were playing. Instant rage filled me as I saw Brian having fun like I wasn't just knocked out in front of him back at the club and kidnapped. I grab the back of his neck and slam his head down onto the pool table, a huge thud filled the air.

     "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU BRIAN?! WHY WOULD YOU LET THEM DO THIS TO ME!" I screamed at him pushing his head harder into the table. I felt two arms pull me off of Brian and go up underneath my armpits dragging me away from him, I realize it was beach guy.

     "CAN I SHOOT HER NOW WILDCAT?! SHE JUST TRIED SOMETHING!" Blue hoodie yells. The only room on this floors door slams open, out walks Evan and behind him tux and paper bag boy. So, the Vanoss tried to take me home with him last night.

     "Delirious enough! Moo bring her in here." Evan says. Moo who I guess is beach guy walks me into the office and sets me down. I stumble forward but was caught, I look and see tux holding onto my arm, to prevent me from falling.

     "Mini, off of her," Evan says while closing the door and locking it. I elbow Mini to get him off of me and glare at Evan. He goes behind his desk and sits down in the chair.

     "You can take a seat or you can stand. We're going to be here for a while so you pick." Evan says while looking at a couple papers on the desk. Paper bag goes to sit on the couch while Mini continues to stare at me.

     "Do you have a fucking staring problem?! Quit looking at me daddies money," I say to Mini. Paper bag boy starts laughing as Mini gets inches away from my face but still towers over me. He glares at me now,

     "Mini! Sit down!" Evan yells. Mini huffs and goes to sit next to paper bag. I cross my arms and look at Evan.

     "So was this what you meant by taking me back to your place after the club? Cause it isn't a nice welcome let me tell you." I sit in the chair that's in front of the desk. He smirks at me and gives me a wink, that wink made me feel hot in the face.

     "I guess I said enough because you're here now. Or was it to get away from Mini last night at the club?" Evan says. I glance over at Mini before looking back at Evan.

     "I'm impressed with what you did to these two here. When Mini was talking about you with what happened at the tattoo parlor Brian knew who you were and that got me really interested in you, even more now since I now know what you look like." He says

     "Whatever you want from me, you aren't going to get. I don't have any money, I'm barely known in the gang world. Are you taking me hostage because you want something from my dad? Trust me he doesn't even care to know where I'm at." I say. Evan shakes his head no before pushing the papers across the desk to me. I look down at the picture and gasp. How does he have a picture of uncle Trevor?!

     "Do you know him? I'm guessing from the gasp that you do." Evan says. I look up at him and take a deep breath.

     "Even if I did, I'm not going to tell you who he is. Why does it matter do you?" I sit back in the chair and cross my arms again.

     "Thanks to Brian, we found out your and your family's past and relationship with Mr. Philips. He came to me with a proposal for a heist. And what better way to discuss about one than with someone he knows." He says, giving me another wink. I start to shake my head no quickly.

     "You don't get it, he thinks my dad is dead, it's been years since I saw him, I was six years old! I'm 22 now!" I exclaim to him. 

     Evan pulls the paper away from me and gets up from his chair and kneels down next to me. He creases his hand on my cheek. From the corner of my eye, I watch as Mini gets up from the couch. 

     "I guess someone in here is a little jealous of another guy touching you," Evan chuckles and stands up now, "Anyways, I need you for this heist with Mr. Philips, you know him more than anyone in my gang and with you around, I know he won't try anything with my guys." He walks to the door and unlocks it.

     "Until the heist is done, you're stuck either here or with one of us." He opens the door and walks out, closing the door behind him.
