"Mob? I thought we came here to catch Glenna?" Logan asked

"Did no one tell him about the plan? Riley, weren't you supposed to fill him in?" I asked

"Hey, don't blame me, blame Jolene. She kept me on the phone till it was time to take off and I had to switch off my phone. Trust me, the girl would have entered my suitcase if she could fit"

"You see, Glenna is involved with a gang. She sells hard drugs to them in exchange for money. She's been living here for the past seven years because this is the last place anyone would look for her. Our job is to find proof that she's involved with the gang and make sure she roots in jail.

"But I don't understand, the police is looking for her. Since we have her here, why don't we just take her in?" Darcey asked

Birdie and I sighed "She works with a gang. Do you even know the slightest thing about gangs? They are criminal and everyone knows it but why is it that no single one of them ever gets arrested? Obviously, they have connections and power. What do you think the gang will do when they find out that their precious drug dealer has been caught? They'll burst her out and then, our lives will be in danger" Birdie explained

"Ahh, ok" Logan said

"So what will you do if she tries to run?" Riley asked

"Oh don't worry, that won't be necessary" Birdie pointed her gun at the wall and closed her eyes like she was about to shoot. She pulled the trigger and I clearly saw a bullet hit the wood and fall on the ground but there was barely any sound.

"Whoa, how did you do that?" I gasped

"It's called a Silencer. It's used to kill people in silence without anyone noticing" Logan explained

"Wow, you know your guns"

"What can I say? I'm a bit of a virtual gangster myself" He said

"Keep it up and someday, you'll be an actual gangster. When that happens, call me because I love bad boys. That is if someone won't already have removed you from the market and make you sold out" She smirked at me.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nothing, go to bed"

The fortunate thing about this room is that there are three single beds and one bunk bed.

"I want the top bunk" Darcey said

"No, I want it too" I replied

"Fine, let's play what are the odds that you get the top bunk" She said

"Alright then, What are the odds that I get the top bunk? On three, one, two, three"

"4" "3"

"Noooo" I groaned

"Hahaha" She stuck out her tongue and hopped on the bed. I took a deep breath before hopping on my boring down bunk.

"Honestly, I think that Griffin Johnson is real cute but I'll go for Josh Richards, any day, any time" Darcey and I have been up for quite a long time talking about beautiful boys.

"Will you two pipe down? It's way past your bedtime. Maybe you don't need your beauty self which probably explains why you look like that but I do" Birdie said

"Sorry" We whispered

After a while, Darcey fell asleep and I just laid there on my bed wondering why everything reminds me of Andrew.

Ok, this bed is so freaking hot. I think I'll just settle for the floor because I'm dying here. I picked up my blanket and spread it on the floor. It's really big so I'll be able to wrap it around myself.

"Julian? Why aren't you asleep?" I heard a voice whisper.

"Logan?"

"Yeah, it's me, What are you doing?" He asked

"My bed is like really hot so I'm just going to sleep on the floor"

"No, you shouldn't do that. Why don't you come lay on my bed? I'll sleep on the floor"

"No way, I won't be able to sleep knowing that I let you stay on the floor"

"Alright, if you feel that strongly about it then why don't we stay together on the bed?"

I'm so happy that everywhere is dark or else he would have seen how my cheeks lit up with the color red after his suggestion.

What if my blush is actually glow in the dark?

"Julian?" He called out to me.

"Oh, um, I....ok" I picked up the blanket and placed it on my bed. I picked up my pillow and went to his bed.

"What's the pillow for? There are two pillows here?" He asked

"This" I placed the pillow as a barrier between the both of us.

"Oh, so we're doing this?" He pointed to the pillow.

"Sorry, I'm not comfortable with sleeping on a bed with a guy"

Wow Julian, I didn't know that you were such a liar. Is Andrew not a boy? How many times did you sleep on his bed? Were you ever uncomfortable?

"Alright" I laid down beside him and finally, I fell asleep.

I could feel a pair of strong arms around my waist. Am I dreaming that I'm in Andrew's arms? If being in his arms feels this good then I never want to stop. It's been quite a while since I slept with him so I've forgotten what it'd be like to be held by him"

But his back feels weird? He has more of a slender yet rock hard chest but this back isn't that hard. I opened my eyes and looked around the cabin.

I tried to get up with something was holding me down. I looked down and saw a pair of arms wrapped around me. When did Logan cuddle me? I thought I put a barrier.

I looked at the bed and saw that the barrier was still there. He can't have dragged me because I would have felt it. Did I by any chance, climb it myself?

I felt a pair of eyes watching me so I looked around the room. I spotted Darcey on the top bunk looking at us so intensely.

She wiggled her eyebrows and made kissing sounds.

"Shut up" I mouthed at her before getting out of his arms and going back to my bed.
