Where You Can Stay Away Forever [Closed]

April sat the phone back down on its receiver and sighed, watching Matt walk away. She didn't really know why she was doing this for him. Yeah, she liked him, but enough to take a risk on getting a trafficking charge? Apparently. She got up from her seat and headed back out to her car, heading to his place.

---

Brian slid in behind the drivers seat and smiled, "My friend is throwing a party down by Galvins Lake if you ever heard of it?" He asked her. It didn't have the best reputation and most of the people who lived around it were all junkies, but they knew how to throw parties.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt sighed once he got back to his cell and sat down. He didnt know how he felt about letting one of his clients help, but he had no other choice.

--

Hannah looked at him, "Yea I have." She said. She had been invited there a few times but she had never went because she wasnt a fan of always going to huge parties. When they got to the party she got out and walked with Brian. She could already hear the drunk people hollering and carrying on. She looked at Brian when he asked if she wanted something to drink, "Yea sure." She said, smiling at him a little. She watched as he left then answered a text from her friend on her phone. She looked at Brian when he came back with a beer. She took it from him and took a switch of it. She figured the faster she got drunk or high the better.

@ warmnessonthesoul.

April didn't waste any time. She headed straight from the jail to his place. She wasn't sure if she could pull this off, they had found a little bit scattered around his apartment when they did the bust that he was already facing 15 years and a ten thousand dollar bond. Once inside, she was quick to find his stash, and the list in his desk. Next to it, was a cellphone with a few voicemails so she took that too. She knew she couldn't do anything from here- the police would most likely be watching his house.

She put everything in her bag and hurried home, feeling like her heart was about to bust out of her chest she was so nervous. It was one thing to buy and take drugs, it was a completely different thing to start selling. If she wasn't smart about this, she could end up right where he was.

April sat down on her bed and opened the voicemails on the phone. There were six ones, all from Matt's friends wondering when they could come by. She called each one back, giving them the same spill that they could come to her house later that night to get their stuff.

Derek was the first guy to show up at her house and she was surprised when he just walked into her house. She got up off the couch and crossed her arms, "Uhm, heard of knocking?" He looked her up and down and just scoffed, "Matt's trusting a little girl to get him out of jail? Let me guess, you're just pocketing all the cash, aren't you?"

"I'm not here to have conversations, you want your coke or what?" April frowned and led him into the kitchen. "Money?" She asked, leaning against the counter. Derek got way to close, with a dirty smirk on his lips, "How about I compensate you some other way?" He leaned in, trying to grab her around her waist.

April slid her hand behind her back, into the drawer she was leaning against and pulled out a pistol. "I said money, asshole, or you can leave." The man was quick to back up and drop a roll of cash on the table. She had never seen a man shake like a leaf so hard before. She got his stuff and he left before even saying another word. She figured that this was how it was going to go.

Only four days had gone by, and April already had eight grand. She answered her phone, getting a call from Matt in jail. "Hello?"

---

Brian maneuvered his way through the crowd of bodies, having absolutely no personal space whatsoever, but he was used to it. In all honesty, he didn't like huge crowds like this either. He enjoyed smaller parties, but he never threw any because he was to afraid to get busted. He liked to keep his nose down, not draw any attention to himself. And so far, that had been working. He had been dealing since he graduated high school and had never had a run in with the cops.

When he brought Hannah's beer back, he watched as she took a deep drink and he couldn't help but chuckle. "Am I missing something...? Do you not like big parties?" He teased her, taking a sip of his own beer.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt had managed to get a cell phone sneaked into him while he was in jail. He was glad that he had connections. He waited til he could get away and not be seen before he called April. "Hey. I need to make this quick." He said. He knew if he used the jail phones that the guards could listen in on their conversation. "How are things going? How much money did you get?" He asked. He knew that she had enough to make the money for his bail and once he did that then he could get a good lawyer. He sighed as he listened to her talk, "Are you sure you can handle this?" He asked. He didn't want her to get hurt from helping him. He knew what he did was a very dangerous business.

---

Hannah looked at him when he asked about the parties, "I mean they are okay." She said, shrugging. She really just thought they mostly ended with people fighting and light weight girls either throwing up somewhere or hooking up with a random guy. She looked at him, "Are you not of fan of them either?" She teased him. She had noticed the look he had when he had to deal with the people. "You know i'm pretty sure you are suppose to like people since you tend to see a lot of them." She joked. She knew that Brian had always kept to himself. She had learned that quickly when she started to buy drugs off of him. An hour later she was doing shots with Brian and was feeling tipsy and she felt better. She always felt better when she felt like she could escape her own thoughts. She smiled as she felt his arm around her.

@ dezzy

April was a little relieved to hear Matt's voice and all she wanted to do was get this over with so hopefully she'd never have deal with his clients again. They all had assumed they could touch her or just try and take from her and she was over it. "I almost have enough, I've gotten a little over eight, so just a couple more days and I'll have you out of there." She chewed on her lip when he asked if she could handle this, "Well, I've already handled it up until this point, it would be kind of dumb if I just stopped now when I almost have all of the money."

---

For most of the night, Brian had been able to just block out all the other people and just focus on Hannah. He took his third shot and was beginning to feel his own head spin. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and placed a few kisses on the side of her neck. He knew it was risky, but he couldn't help it. He liked her. He was brought back to the reality of where they were, when someone tapped him on his shoulder, "Guys, we've got some heroine over here, want some Brian?" Not being in his best head space, he agreed.

"Sure, why not." He loosened his grip on Hannah to head over to the table where some guy was cutting it into thin lines with a credit card. He knew it wasn't a good idea, it wasn't his, he didn't know where it came from, but he was almost drunk and wanted to keep the party going. He figured if he took maybe half a line, it would loosen him up enough to where he could fully enjoy the party.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt smiled at her comment, "I was check doll face. I dont want you to feel like you need to put yourself in danger for me." He explained as he glanced around him. "I am really grateful that you are doing this for me." He said. He didnt have anyone else that would risk their freedom for him.

--

Hannah skipped as she felt Brian kiss her neck. She was too drunk and high from the pills she popped to care at this point. When he pulled away she let him go, not thinking anything of it. She continued to drink and talk to some of the people they had been standing with. She wasnt going to tell Brian not to do anything because she would feel like a hypocrite then.

@ dezzy

April looked down at her jeans, picking at a small spot where it was beginning to fray. "Yeah, well, you just need to get out so that I don't have to do this anymore." She laughed, feeling her skin crawl thinking about the way the men she sold to looked at her. She bit her bottom lip as she listened to him, wishing that she could tell him why she was doing this for him. But she figured the feelings weren't mutual, so she didn't want to let him know how much she really liked him. "I'll get you out soon, I could maybe pay it by tomorrow."

---

The moment Brian was handed a rolled up crisp dollar bill, he bent down, to the table with full intention to just take half of a line. But when it was time to stop, Brian just felt as if he was watching himself take the rest of it. He stood up straight for only a moment to take a deep breath in, before he bent back down almost immediately, and snorted up the second line that had been made for the next person. He stood back up, dropping the dollar and laughing, feeling like the room was positively spinning. He stumbled back and fell down on the couch. He felt paralyzed, unable to move his arms or legs, he couldn't even move his head from side to side. He was just stuck there, watching everyone move around him and it felt like they were all going at double the speed than they should be.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt smirked at her words, "Alright I hope I see you tomorrow." He said. "I will talk to you later." He said as he hung up. He walked out of where he was hiding after he hid his cell phone in the ceiling. He walked out then headed to his cell. He sat on his bed and relaxed against the wall.

--

Hannah frowned when she found Brian fucked up on the couch. She sat next to him, "Brian." She said, getting his attention. She frowned at how out of it he was. "Hey." She said, smacking his cheek. "Are you okay?" She asked him. She was pretty fucked up, but he seemed way worse. She frowned and set her drink down, feeling his pulse.

@ dezzy

April could finally relax when she had a full 10,000 dollars in her hands. It was about 3 pm, so she wasn’t sure if she’d make it to the jail in time to bail Matt out. But now she didn’t have to worry about men trying to advantage of her, or worry about them stealing Matt’s stuff.

She got in her car and hurried to the prison he was being held at, not pulling into the parking lot until 4:35pm. She ran inside with the money in an envelope and talked to the lady at the front desk who started processing the bail.

---

It had been such a long time since Brian had been this fucked up. He had felt like this before, unable to really move and watching everyone and everything move around him in slow motion. The only difference this time was he felt like he couldn’t breathe either, and he didn’t think he was.

He could see Hannah come to sit next to him, but her touch felt cold and distant. His eyes were yellowing and drooping and before he knew it everything was just black. His head fell forward and he just crumpled forward, unable to keep himself sitting up straight.

@ Gunslinger;
[What if when Matt gets out, he wants April to continue selling for him since he’ll be on parole and being watched?]

Matt was surprised when he was told someone paid his bail. He smirked as he was walked out and got changed. He walked out and seen April, "Lets go." He said after he signed his paperwork. He walked to the car and got in, "Thanks for helping out." He said.

--

Hannah frowned as he fell against her. "Fuck " She said, dialing 911. Hannah was not surprised when Brian's "friends" bailed. When the EMTs got there she let then take him. She went to the hospital frowning when she was told he overdosed. She bit her bottom lip lightly as she walked into his room.

@ dezzy
[I like that idea]

April was relieved when she saw Matt walk out. His beard was growing out and he looked happy to be in his own clothes. She had been shaking the whole time she had been waiting, afraid any minute someone would walk out and tell her that they knew she had been selling drugs for the past week. But when she saw him, she could finally relax.

“Yes please.” She said as she walked out to her car with him. “It was no problem.” She smiled as she got into the drivers seat.

---

Brian was barely awake, being fed slow doses of Narcan. If the doctors gave him just one whole dose at once, he’d have a large chance of immediately waking up and going into heroine withdrawal. So they were trying to keep him as comfortable as possible.

He opened his eyes when he heard someone walk in and was a little relieved to see Hannah. “I promise I don’t do this often.” He tried to laugh, but he felt so weak.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt relaxed as she began to drive towards his place. "Did you have any issues while I was gone?" He asked. He couldnt wait to get back to his place and shower. He wanted to relax and get a burger.

--

Hannah sat in the chair next to his bed, "Be glad I was there because they left you." She said. She couldnt imagine doing that to someone that was her friend.

@ dezzy

April shrugged, “I mean not really.” She chewed on the inside of her lip, “Just glad it’s over.” She laughed.

She pulled up to his apartment and shut the car off.

---

Brian frowned and just looked up at the ceiling, “Doesn’t surprise me. Druggies like that are never true friends anyway.”

@ Gunslinger;

Matt chuckled, "What you didnt enjoy it?" He asked as they walked inside. "Im going to shower then we can go get some food." He said as he walked back to his bedroom.

--

Hannah watched him, "i see why you avoid doing most drugs now." She said. Hannah sighed as she looked at him.

@ dezzy

April assumed Matt didn't even think about the fact that all the guys she had to sell to, all pretty much tried to assault her in some way. She was just a young girl, and they had all been grown men, thinking they could get an easy, free fix. She waited for Matt to come out of the shower and she grabbed her purse. "Well, you know, the guys you sell to aren't so friendly." She chuckled as they walked back out to his car.

---

Brian looked down at all the cords and machines around him, and down at the two IVs he had in each arm. "It's my fault anyway, I don't know when to stop." He chuckled, trying to make light of the situation. That was why he didn't do most drugs, once he started, he felt invincible, like most do- except he just wants to keep going.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt chuckled as he pulled his shirt on. "Yea well I am not a good guy either." He told her. He smirked as he watched her.

--

Hannah nodded, "Just be glad I was there. Your friends were going to let you die." She said. She ran her fingers through her hair. She wondered if she would ever get to the point where she would almost die.

@ dezzy

April rolled her eyes as she placed her hand on the handle of the car. The breeze was starting to pick up, the wind rustling through her hair. “Yeah well, I’ll take you over them any day.” She opened the door and took her seat on the passenger side. “Where are we going for food?”

---

Brian ran a hand through his hair, not being to wary of the IV that was hooked in his hand. “I am appreciative.” He chuckled, trying to remain light. He didn’t want to think to deeply about what had happened. He knew he didn’t have a problem, he was good at staying away from the stuff. It was just once he started, he couldn’t stop. But now that it was out of his system, he should be fine.

@ Gunslinger;

Matt chuckled as he walked with her into the restuarant, "You'll like this place." He said. He sat down with her at a booth and handed her a menu. He really just wanted a burger and fries. "You want to get mozzarella sticks to start?" He asked, looking at her.

--

Hannah nodded, "Yea." She said She was glad that he was okay. She also knew that she didn't want to see Brian like that again. He didn't seem like that kind of guy. Hannah knew he liked being in control. "Do you do this a lot?" She asked him.
