118. JANAE

"Please, don't kill me. I'm sure that whatever this is about, it can be sorted out, if only I am allowed to speak to Marlon Gustave Sr."

No one even coughs in my direction.

"Please, let me speak to Marlon first. Please,"

The silence gets even louder and I feel my throat scratch with tears.

There is nothing that I am going to say to these dangerous men that will get them to let me go.

The only time I get them to actually pay any attention to them was when I said I was thirsty, a

    144. JANAE I push my trolley down the aisle in the superstore, throwing in a few things inside. I just came in here to grab a few boxes, because in the middle of boxing, I realized that I didn't have enough. I'm almost done with packing, since we don't have a lot of stuff that are sentimental to us, but Luther and my rooms are next. I tear off the wrap from a bar of chocolate as I munch on it, pushing the trolley forward with my leg. I see this giant bowl of ice cream through the see-through glass door of the refrigerator, and it makes me smile. Luther has been going through a lot since we have only a few hours left in Densberry, so maybe this is going to be something to cheer him up. I take the ice cream, a couple more goodies, and I'm all set to pay at the front. It's a fairly long line, so I just put my air pods in place and try to wait it out without going into a brief depression myself. I day dream about the next town we are going to, and how Luther is going to get the s

    143. LUTHER "Okay, let's go," William closes the door loudly and drives off. "Wait, we don't even have a plan yet.""Are you like a hundred percent sure she saw you yesterday, though?" William asks. My hand rubs my forehead, as if I am about to have a headache or something. "I know I wasn't hallucinating, I saw her by the door, and that look she had in her eyes..." My eyes press shut. "She saw me, she definitely saw me.""If she did, then why hasn't she gone on top of a mountain to scream about it? I mean no offense, but Bernice kind of absolutely hates you right now," Will says."Yeah, no shit." I cringe, I don't want to even think about that right now. "It's even scarier that she hasn't said anything to anyone. Knowing Bernice, she is probably going to go for blood. I'm not scared for myself, just Marlon," I see William's jaw tighten as he makes a turn down to join the traffic. "And Marlon? Have you heard anything from him?" William murmurs. I turned my phone off because I do

    142. LUTHER I throw up the content of my stomach into the toilet bowl, and it feels like I'm getting strangled. It's the worst because I haven't eaten well, so really, there isn't much to throw up. Afterwards, I flush the toilet and crawl my way into the hallway, with my back pressed against the wall. My mum is missing. I have looked at every corner of the house, but she is not here. My car is parked outside, her phone is on the sofa, and her keys are by the drawer in the living room. I'm not saying my mother has got up and left Densberry without me, because it's not possible. Not when she is alive and breathing. It looks like she disappeared in the middle of packing, too. Where would she have gone too? It's five o'clock in the morning, and even though it's an emergency for me, I can't go to the neighbor's house to ask if they've seen my mother. However, on the back of my tongue, I can taste the sourness in the situation. It's too odd and full of holes for me to understand it

    141. LUTHER I go limb like a corpse, and Marlon notices immediately. "Hey, hey, what's the matter? Are you okay?" He lifts my chin. I swallow a heavy gulp as I nod and force a smile. I don't have the heart to tell him how ruined we are right now. I look through the small glass gap in the door, and her angry face is gone. Was I hallucinating because of how paranoid I was? Or did Bernice of all people see Marlon and I? If she did, why didn't she barge in and make a big scene ? Why did she leave as quietly as she came? I guess it's safe to say that I don't trust Bernice. I don't trust her enough to place Marlon and I's fate in the hands of probability. I have to find out if she was what I saw, and not a fragment of my imagination. If she indeed was... Well, I'm fucked. Marlon and I are...Marlon keeps insisting that my demeanor has changed, like I have gotten some sort of bad news, but I gaslight him into thinking that it's all in his head. We put everything the way it was, and

    140. LUTHER The page takes a few seconds to load, and I can feel my soul slipping away from my body because my eyes can't find what I'm looking for..."You pass, Luth," Marlon says. "You got the scholarship." Surely I didn't hear that right, my ears are ringing, and a malevolent voice tells me that it's not true, that he is just pranking me. But when I use my shaky fingers to trace the words, it's confirmed! "Oh my God!" I jerk away, hand clasped over my mouth. Marlon stands up and pulls me into a hug, and I hear him even chuckle happily. "Look at you, smarty pants, trying to make the rest of us look like dullards. Now you are going to go off to study something fancy at Sterling university...." When I pull away from him, he is perplexed to see the tears in my eyes, but they are tears of joy. "I did it!" My breath breaks in many places. "I got the scholarship, I did it!" "Yeah, you did, Luth. I'm so fucking proud of you–" I crash my lips against him with such force that we bo

    139. MARLON "Marlon, we can't do that!" "Too late, I'm already getting into my clothes," I jump out of my bed and walk into my closet. "What do you think I should wear? Maybe a black overall like those spy movies," "Marlon, stop!" Luther whines. "You know that today is prom, and there is no way that we won't be caught." I snort at his disbelief. I've broken into school more times than I can count, so this should be a small adventure for me. "Does your window still open? Get out through it so that your mother won't notice, and meet me down your street in fifteen minutes," I tell him. "Marlon, I don't want us to get into trouble." "We will only get into trouble if we get caught. We are not going to get caught, okay?" Luther gives in a sigh. "Alright, Marlon. You better know what you are doing." The call ends, and I pull out some all black outfits and throw them on. I might be looking so cool, but I know that I'm worried for Luther, I want him to get that scholarship because he

    MARLON “Hey, Luth.” I say, with a smile on my face. His throat ripples with anxiousness, and that makes my inner demon of lust to growl. There is nothing more that that I want right now than to push him to bed and fuck the hell out of him. His eyes dart around with confusion, and even though he

    LUTHER I linger in the bathroom minutes after Marlon has left. Staring at my reflection in the mirror, I have to slap myself a few times to make sure that I am not in a dream or something. Did Marlon Gustave just kiss me? Did he just touch me and get me yearning for more?This has never been som

    Luther's POV “Wh– what?” I stammer. “Come on, stop being a pussy.” He growl under his breath. “You want to fight me, don't you?” I swallow a dry gulp, I couldn't take my eyes away from his. Him holding me against the wall like this, it was doing something to me, it was causing a stir in my pant

    Luther's POV Panic grows in my chest, my head is throbbing with a headache. My nose is bleeding terribly, and I start to feel hazy due to the loss of blood. I don't have a handkerchief with me, so I fold my sweater and place it over my nostrils. Marlon, my assaulter, is gone now, and I have to
