QUESTIONS WITHOUT ANSWERS

The ride to the police station was painfully quiet.

Blake shoved his hands into the pockets of his sweatshirt as he sank into the backseat of the cruiser. He turned his eyes to the rain-speckled window, his foot tapping against the front seat nervously.

Houses, traffic lights and passing cars blurred together outside, but he barely even noticed any of them. As he stared blankly, his mind traveled back to the mansion.

Aaron had slipped out the back of the house af

  • GOLDEN BOY, BAD BOY   CHAPTER 90: THE MORNING AFTER

    CHAPTER 90THE MORNING AFTERSunlight spilled through the curtains in thin golden strips, cascading across the wooden floor before landing on the bed by the wall. It warmed the tangled sheets and one of the two figures under the duvet stirred with a groan. Jake's eyes fluttered open and his face immediately squeezed at the sudden brightness. For a few seconds, he stared at the ceiling, wondering why his entire body felt so heavy. Then the memories from last night slowly returned–Aaron’s call, the meetup at the drugstore, the blood…Gina. His head snapped to the side where Gina laid peacefully, her hair disheveled and her mouth slightly open. Then he looked toward the window where the sky outside was already bright. “It's morning already?" he muttered as he placed a palm over his eyes. “How long have I been out?" With a soft groan, he pushed himself up on one elbow, intending to climb out of bed. But before he could move any farther, an arm wrapped around his waist and slowly drag

    THE BROTHERSGina's words hung in the air in the car. For a few seconds nobody said anything. Ethan looked at her in the back seat; his mind tried to process the words she had spoken.But Blake moved first; his head slowly rose. "What?"Gina tightened her grip on the steering wheel. "Jake and Aaron," she repeated. "They're at the station."Ethan's stomach felt like falling down. "What do you mean, they're at the station?"Gina looked at him through the rear-view mirror. "I don't know exactly. I got a call a few minutes ago. Someone I know at the station told me they've both been taken there."Blake immediately turned toward her. "Both of them?""That's what I heard," said Gina."Why?"Gina shook her head. "I don't know."Ethan's heart started pounding harder and harder. He already knew the reason. The footage. The drugstore. The bodies.He glanced at Blake. The jock was staring straight forward, his jaw firmly clamped. Ethan saw that his friend looked scared; but not for himself. For

    CHAPTER 88A DEBT THAT NEVER ENDSJake pushed himself off the floor with a loud groan as one hand cupped over his nose. Blood streamed between the cracks, dripping down his wrist onto the kitchen tiles. “Fucking hell," he cursed, stumbling forward and crashing into the cupboard. His head throbbed from the punch and his vision blurred, distorting whatever stood before him. Aaron walked toward him, fists already clenching again. But before he could take another swing Nathan dropped between them and shoved Aaron back. "That's enough, man!” he barked. "Fucking hell, Aaron, I think you broke the bastard's nose.”Aaron grimaced, glaring past him to Jake. Grunting irritatedly, he flexes the wrist he'd punched Jake with before turning away. "Tch,” he hissed, shaking his head. "Fucking idiot's not worth breaking my hand over." Grabbing one of the dining chairs, he walked across the kitchen and dropped into it. Jake stayed where he was for another moment, the taste of iron settling in his

    CHAPTER 85THE SILENCE BETWEEN USThe click of the door signaled Gina’s exit and left the apartment uncharacteristically silent.For a few seconds none of them moved.Ethan stayed frozen in the same position in front of the open fridge with one of his hands holding a bottle of water he had forgotten he was holding. His cheeks were still burning due to the recent events and every single time he glanced at Blake he could feel the heat of that kiss on his lips.Blake was not in much better shape.He awkwardly leaned by the kitchen entryway with both his hands buried deep in his gray hoodie's pockets rocking on his heels like he did not know what to do with himself anymore.Nobody spoke.Neither knew where to start.Silence grew.It just kept growing.Finally…Gina leaned against the entrance and glanced first at Ethan……then at Blake……then back at Ethan again.She sighed dramatically.“You know,” she said. “This is kind of painful to watch.”Neither boy answered.Ethan cleared his throa

Nathan barked. "Jesus Christ, Aaron. Stop."Aaron glared past him, chest rising and falling violently."Move.""No.""I said move."Nathan didn't.For several long seconds, the two men simply stared each other down before Aaron let out an irritated grunt."Tch."He rolled his shoulders, flexing the wrist he'd punched Jake with before turning away."The fucking idiot isn't worth breaking my hand over."He walked across the kitchen and dropped into one of the dining chairs, leaning back heavily.Jake stayed where he was for another moment, still trying to stop the ringing in his ears.He wiped ano

"Just... stay calm."Nobody moved.The officers outside continued talking among themselves.One of them glanced toward the arriving Camry.Gina noticed."I'll talk to them."She switched off the engine before turning toward the two boys.
