Francesca's PoV

"What are you grinning about?" Sucre asked T Bag as we walked to PI.

"Oh, just the fact that I'm gonna be out in the real world here in a little bit. The fact that I'm gonna get me one final piece of tail certainly don't hurt either" the older man seemed quite chuffed with himself.

"Ain't that right Scofield"

I rolled my eyes as I walked into the room with the hole in the floor, I helped move the table away so we could get to the hole easier before placing it down and look at Michael.

He grabbed some sort of tool and smashed it against Theodore's shins.

"Son of a bitch!" He yelled grabbing his legs and collapsing.

"This ends right now"

"Oh, you just screwed some major league pooch, pretty" Theodore huffed.

"I'm gonna sing like a whole tree full of birds now" he continued.

"BADGE!"

"You wanna sing, then sing. But you know what I think? You don't have the guts. You want out of here just as much as the rest of us." Michael whispered in a way that made a shiver spread over my body in a good way.

"There a problem in here?" The CO asked as he walked through the door.

"No. I thought we was missing some tools here my bad" Theodore said.

"Get back to work" the officer said before turning around and shutting the door behind him.

"Now, you and I may be stuck together in this little dance, but I call the shots" Michael told the man before carrying on.

"First shot: the kid out there? You don't touch him ever. Do we understand each other?"
Theodore looked behind him at Lincoln before answering a simple 'we do'.

"And leave her alone" Michael said, pointing towards me.

T-Bag hesitated but nodded anyway, not really wanting a tool to the shins again.

"Out of the way, Julio" I heard Bellick announce his arrival.

"Abruzzi. You and me, we gotta have a conversation"

Abruzzi looked around before walking out with Bellick hot on his heels.

"How come he didn't fall through?" Lincoln asked about the hole.

Michael pulled back the carpet to reveal the CO board with Bellicks face in the middle.

I laughed and walked over to Michael
"You know you really can be threatening sometimes" I smirked, placing my hand on his chest.

"Oh yeah? I just didn't like his attitude, I'm the boss of this escape I call the shots, plus I know how you feel about Tweener and his safety" he smiled.

"Thank you Michael it's means a lot. And you know you can really make a girl blush with that kinda attitude, you should bring out the rough side of yourself more often" I whispered lustfully.

He looked at me with no emotion before smirking and pushing me around the room to start working with his hand on my lower back.

Michael and I were walking in the yard and watched as Theodore limped around.

"What's up bitch?" I heard Tweener say and I was about to go and tell him to shut up but decided to watch his play out.

Theodore looked mine and Michaels way before walking away without saying a word.

"Yeah that's what I thought" Tweener laughed getting up from his seat with a smile on his face and getting cocky.
