The Gang Leader

18

Bianca's POV

I walk into the room where everyone who had completed their missions all sit and wait.

Alexander sits on a barstool talking to Marty, a tewnty year old man who had joined the gang around the same time Carla and I did.

" Alexander? Could I please see you in my office?," I ask my cousin curtly.He stiffly nods his head and follows me into my office.He close the door just as he enters and sits down on the chair infront of my desk.

" why are your here for,Alex?," I sigh.

" Look B, I came here to warn you about Rick. He's gone crazy B!," he shouts eyes wide.

"I'm sure he has,"I comment sarcastically.

"B, you gotta believe me on this,"Alex begs me.

" I think,Alexander, that you had lost my trust long ago,"i say coldly.

"That! T-that was not my fault and you know it!Yet you and everyone else refuse to believe it!," His voice shook with anger and bottled up emotions.

"Back to your point," I answer oblivious to his comment of what had happened 3 years ago.

" He's found the spies and.. killed all 4 of them.He's not happy with you and your gang,B." With that said he gets up from his seat and walks out the door and back out of my life,hopefully forever.

I walk behind my desk and sit down while letting out a tired sigh.

Erick walks into the room and closes the door behind him.

"What was that about?," he asks pointing out the door that Alex had walked out of not even five minutes ago.

"Alex, my cousin.Some of our family stopped talking to him 3 years ago and I was one of them.And suddenly he comes back saying Rick is crazy," I explain.

"Well maybe you should listen to him.Maybe,Rick really is crazy. I wouldn't be surprised is he is,"comments Erick.

I narrow my eyes at him,"why are you siding with Alex.He's not trust worthy."

"What could have happened 3 years ago that you can't forgive him years after it happened?"

" You don't get it,Erick!," I yell exasperated.

"Then explain,"his light eyes harden with determination.
I couldn't possibly tell Erick what has been haunting me forever.

"He caused a suicide and a murder," I reply shortly.
My eyes don't meet Erick's as I look down at the worn brown wood of the desk top.

"But maybe,just maybe,he's trying to get you to trust him again," he whispers.

Tears brim my eyes when I think of what had happened that unholy night just when I was a little naive girl.

"I'll try," I whisper hoarsely. Part of myself was saying I was only going to try was for my gang but this small part of myself knew I was doing it for myself.

Erick comes around behind the desk and wraps his strong arms around me in a comforting embrace.

" I'll support you through this.To hell and back."

I smile up at him and swat his hair.

" Aww. Your so sweet," I gush.

"Yeah,yeah,yeah...,"he mumbles.
