Choices

Chapter 18

The song is a cover song which is Bad Romance and it's by Halestorm! I thought it just went well with the chapter!

(Hopes POV)

     "Last time I picked you up you weren't this light." Brain says as he opens up the Insurgents car door and hands me to Moo.

     "Here, I got her, you okay?" He asks me as I basically fall onto him. I start to laugh as he sets me up again. Brian gets in and drags me over to him and has me sit in his lap with my legs on Moos's lap so I'm sitting horizontal with the seat, my back sitting against the door. Evan gets in the drives seat and Craig hoping in the passenger seat. The police were shooting at the Insurgent but the bullets only bounced off of it.

     "Hope and I are leaving the city for a couple of days, we don't know if there's any more Wolfs out there and I'm not risking going through this again," Brian says. It felt like the world stopped for a second as everyone turned and looked at him even more.

     "I'm sorry you two alone? So if you two oh I don't know potentially get killed we're down two members. Not happening, not to mention you LITERALLY just got out of the hospital earlier today and we JUST got her back." Evan says in a pissy tone and turns back around to drive.

    "Okay, Moo you wanna tag along with us?" Brian says as he turns to Moo. I start to giggle for no reason as I lay my head on Brian's chest.

     "You know... it feels like I'm getting high right now, maybe from all the drugs they gave me," I say still giggling. Maybe I won't have to listen to this.

     "I mean it uh depends on where I guess? We still have our heist remember?" He says looking over at us. I felt my chest get heavy like I was starting to have a panic attack, I was starting to have trouble taking deep breaths.

     "You know, I don't mind tagging along to make sure things go along all right," Craig says still looking at Brian and I.

     "Nope, you and Evan aren't coming. Fucking anyone else can come but you two." Brian says. I turn and look at Brian.

     "Bad trip, bad trip. BAD TRIP!" He looks down at me as he adjusts me, so I can get air to my lungs but I still couldn't take a deep breath.

     "And why the hell not?" Evan says getting even pissier. I'm just going to have to suffer through this and the fighting Craig rolls his eyes as he turns back in his seat.

     "I think we all know why." Brian rolls his eyes and looks out the window.

     "We do?" I ask looking up from him genuinely confused. He looks down at me.

     "You know... I take that back actually, holy shit." he gives me a surprised look, "you are still a little drugged up. When they injected, what happened?" Brian asks changing the subject. I start to giggle and smile.

     "Some fucked up shit let me tell you. You remembered what I'm afraid of right?" I ask Brian. He sucks in air and shakes his head no. 

    "Well, I'm scared of falling, I'm scared of drowning, and I learned I'm scared of being physically abused by someone," I say casually. The radio was turned down by Evan, now intrigued by what I had to say. Craig turned around again in his seat and Moo looked at me with worry in his eyes.

    "You were there Brian, and so were you Craig, and so were you Evan. You all three were there!" I say as I begin laughing, "Oh fuck, you should've been there. The James guy was saying I was actually standing up and reacting to these fucking fever dreams. They were crazy." I say as I sigh.

     "Do you want to talk about them? The dreams?" Moo said, still sounding worried. I look over at him and squint my eyes.

     "Only a couple, there were a lot of them," I say as I tightly close my eyes and smile at him.

    "Have you seen her this high before?" Craig says to I assume is Brian. I open my eyes as he glances at Brian then down to me.

    "Only once, that's when she was in the hospital after we had a bad accident with the cops. Anyways dreams go on." Brian says rushing me. I sigh dramatically.

     "Remember when we went to Vice City for vacation?" I look up at Brian as he nods his head, "well remember when we were on the beach and like well like I almost drowned there?" Again he nods his head as he looks at me with curiosity.

     "Well one of them was about that, and then the other one was when we were on the beach AGAIN and like you were like I'm going to marry you? I had a dream about that, and-" Evan starts choking on something cause he started coughing up a storm. Craig and Moo look at Evan to make sure that he's alright.

     "You remembered that?" Brian says quietly to me. I nod my head as I look up at him. He brings his hand to his face and sighs. Evan finally calmed down after his phone was ringing. He pulled it out and put it on speaker.

     "Basically and Nogla picked up a couple of the syringes what do you want us to do with it when we get back to the garage?" I heard Del say on the phone. Brian took his hand away from his face and looked toward the front.

     "Evan... I don't like that, why did you pick them up?" Brian says. I look towards the front now.

     "We take them back to the clubhouse and we hold onto them until we need them. But, Hope is telling us what happened when she was on it and... I just need to see it for myself if what she said is true." Evan says in disbelief. Brian reaches up to the front and takes Evan's phone out of his hands.

     "Yeah hey Del, you guys aren't going to fucking put her through that again. You're going to get fucking rid of them" Brian says as he ends the call and tosses the phone back to the front.

     "Hey asshole, did I say we were going to use it on her? Why would I put her through that again if she told us that she had to go through her worst fears?" Evan says as he dodges a couple more cop cars. Craig sighs as he looks back and gives me a small smile.

     "You said that us 3 were in it. What happened if you recall." The short high quickly went away and I was able to take deep breaths again and quickly feel like myself again, still unable to move. It all flashes through my mind like a very sped-up movie.

    "That's the only thing that I remember with Brian because of how recent it was. I just remember you and Evan were in it." I lie. He nods his head and turns back in his seat.

    "I think I do need a mini vacation. I can stay at my dad's house if that'll make a difference?" I suggest. No one says anything. I sigh and look out the window.
