Danger

Mina finally heard the last bell of the day and she had never felt more relieved. She wasn't a huge fan of school, but she also liked going because it kept her away from her awful mother. Anything was better than watching that evil woman do a bunch of drugs and pass out on the couch.

People crowded the hallways as they made their ways out of the school and Mina walked with her friend Amber as she pushed her away through everyone. She stepped out into the California heat and sighed Mina walked down the sidewalk, looking at her phone as she answered a few texts messages.

"Do you have any plans for tonight?" Amber asked as she nudged Mina.

Mina looked over at her, "Not really. I am sure I will find something to get into." She replied. As if the universe had a plan she looked up to see Bryce leaning against his car. He was clearly here to make drug deals to all the teens that usually bought. Mina spent a lot of time with Bryce. They had been friends for a very long time. They just seemed to mesh very well together. Even though he had decided to join a gang and drop out of school. She still remained close to him.

Mina walked towards his car once his customer left and she leaned against it. "Up to no good I see." She teased him as Amber stood beside her. She smiled at Bryce a little. "What have you been up to? You didn't answer my call last night." She said. Normally Bryce and her would talk once a day and it wasn't like him to not get back to her. She assumed it was because he was busy with the gang.

Amber looked over as the guy she hooked up with on occasion pulled up in front of them. Ricky smirked at Amber, "Are you coming with me or what?" He asked Amber looked at Mina, "I will catch you later." She said, giving Mina a kiss on the cheek. She tossed her bag into Ricky's backseat once she opened the door. "We are still meeting at Melrose on Saturday right?" She asked, looking at Mina. The two of them went down there often to hang out and shoplift a lot.

Mina nodded, "Yep, you have me all day Saturday." She told her.

Amber grinned, "Cool, catch you later. Don't get her into trouble Bryce." She said before she got in and left.

Mina looked at him again, seeing the look on his face. "What?" She asked, laughing a little.

The sound of a man struggled filled the surrounding area as a group dragged him up the pier. Luke's boss had found out that one of his men was a snitch and now it was time to take out the trash. Luke followed them and stopped when he noticed how scared the guy was. It wasn't the first guy he had killed and it certainly would not be his last.

"Please, Luke don't do this. We are buddie, man. We grew up together." He pleaded.

Luke pulled the pistol from the back of his pants and pulled the hammer back on it. He knew that everything this man was saying right now was a lie. People had a tendency to say anything when they were about to die. "Shut up." Luke said as he pointed the gun against his head. "We aren't anything now that you have betrayed this gang." He said. He looked at the guy near him. "Take his badge." He said.

Just as the words left Luke's mouth the guys named, Derek stepped forward and pulled out a knife. The man struggled as Derek began to cut the tattoo from his arm, his screams echoing down the alley.

Luke watched as the blood ran down the man's arm then smirked. "You should have stayed loyal. Then you wouldn't be in this mess." He said. Luke pulled the trigger and the shot rang out. Brain matter sprayed into the ocean. "Get rid of him." He said as he put his gun away. He glanced over when he heard something, seeing a girl. Fuck. A witness. Luke took off after her to make sure she didn't get away. He smirked as he took a different direction and cut her off.

His hand wrapped around her neck and he walked her back up against one of the metal cargo holders. "Well, it appears we have a problem. You seen something you weren't supposed to. So now I have to get rid of another issue." He said. He looked down at her, seeing how scared she was. He thought about it and maybe he could use her. His boss probably wouldn't like if he brought her back though. "What's your name?" He asked.

Flipping through the money that the kid handed him, Bryce nodded his head. He wasn't being ripped off for the ounce of oxy the kid wanted. The two of them shook hands and then the kid was on his way. That'll be the kids first time using that shit, so Bryce made sure to let the kid know how to use and how much to use for his first dosage. The last thing he needed was for a customer to kick it and send the cops in the area.

Hearing a familiar voice, Bryce looked over in Mina's direction as he shoved the cash into his jean pocket. "Sorry Mina, something important came up." He told her, offering a small smirk and a wink in response to her prompting him for what he was up to. That was something that only gang members needed to no, and he couldn't share unless Mina joined.

Turning his attention towards Mina's friend, Bryce did the gentlemanly thing to do and offered her a small smirk and just shrugged his shoulders at her words. "Can't promise anything." He said and watched as the two said goodbye. Bryce not being shy about watching Amber's ass as she passed him and got into that crappy car that some dude drove.

"You don't kiss me on the cheek like that." Was all Bryce teased as he looked towards Mina. The girl's gotten pretty hot, he'd be an idiot if he didn't think that. The whole school pretty much had eyes on her. Luckily though, he got to be the one close to her. Growing up together gives him first dibs on deciding if someone was worth her time or not.

Then, Bryce stood up straight and opened the passenger side door of his car. "Anyways, come on. I just got in a couple of bottles of Russian vodka that I've been waiting to crack open."

It was just supposed to be a little walk. To clear her head and get some fresh air. The whole moving to a new area thing because of her parents' messy divorce was riling Amelia up today. Maybe it was watching her dad making out with someone who wasn't her mom, or the fact that a little kid was in his car with the boxes of his shit. Watching him drive away with that bitch who destroyed her happy home.

A new town, a new life. That's what her mom had said to her repeatedly as they packed up their meager belongings and move down to this shithole of a town. Lia was pretty sure there was a dead body in the alley next to her apartment, but no one seemed to care, so whatever.

With her camera in hand, Amelia found herself walking along the pier. She thought it was a beautiful area in the midst of a gathering of nothing. Although that all seemed to change as she heard some guy screaming for someone else to not do something and her curiosity got the better of her. So, being the sneaky little girl that she was, Lia moved towards the sound, doing her best to keep hidden in the shadows of a few cargo boxes.

When the gun rang out though and the guts shot out. Oh, the blood that seemed to coat the ground in red as well. Well, Amelia couldn't help but let out a gasp of surprise. Her hands moved to cover her mouth, but it was too late. A man that looked terrifying turned towards her and was heading her way. So, doing the most obvious thing, she turned and booked it.

Turning a corner, Amelia was almost certain that she was going to be getting away when she stumbled into the man. Her hands going to his wrist as he grasped onto her throat. A few whimpers escaping from her as she stepped backward. Her bright green-eyed looked up into the man's face as she was asked a question. "A-Amelia." She stuttered out, terrified of this man. She didn't belong here, her outfit being a dead giveaway. She didn't belong in this shit hole, she deserved her life back before her dad left her mom for someone younger.

Mina laughed when he mentioned not getting a kiss from her. "Oh no are you feeling left out?" She asked. "Come here." She said as she waited for him to lean down. She placed her hand on his other cheek as she kissed his cheek. She smiled as she pulled away. "Feel better?" She asked him. She had always felt comfortable with Bryce. Even though he did some bad things now she still felt safest with him.

When he mentioned vodka he got her attention. "Oh really? What is the occasion?" She asked as she got into his car. She set her bag in the backseat, then looked at him. "We are going to have to stop by my place so I can get my stuff first." She said. She had a feeling she was going to be too drunk to go home, so she would be staying with Bryce for the night once again. Mina hated the idea of going to her house though. It meant she had to deal with her mother.

The ride to her house was pretty normal. They talked about a little bit of everything on the way like they always did. When they pulled up to her house, Mina got out and walked up to the door. She wasn't shocked to find the door unlocked. She walked inside, hearing some music playing in her mom's bedroom. Mina walked down the hallway, seeing her mom passed out on her bed with a bottle of pills near her. "What a winner." She said as she kept walking to her room. Mina stepped in and began to pack a bag for herself.
---

Luke looked her over and chuckled. "It looks like someone got lost." He said as he took her camera and went through it. He started to delete the pictures. "You are coming with me." He said as he started to pull her with him back to the guys. Luke led her back to the black SUB and shoved her into the back before he climbed in. "If you scream I will kill you." He threatened. Luke looked through her camera to make sure there wasn't evidence as they pulled out.

It didn't take long for them to arrive at a warehouse in the middle of nowhere. "I want to see what the boss thinks we should do with you." He said as he got out and grabbed her arm again. He pulled her into the warehouse and glanced around. "Where is Mark?" He asked. He found him and shoved Amelia forward some. "She seen us kill him." He said, frowning. He knew that he would probably have to kill her too.

Mark stood up and walked towards her. "Well, that is a problem." He said. He walked around her for a moment. "I think we could make use of her here." He said. "I will give you two options. You can join us or Luke can kill you." He said as he stopped in front of her. "Choice is yours, sweetheart."

"Hey!" Amelia squeaked out as the man holding her against the wall took her camera. It was the last thing of value in her life. It was her prized possession, the last thing that she had of her dad's that wasn't taken away from her. The last thing that gave her a little bit of peace of mind in this crappy world that she was forced to live in.

Hearing that she was being forced to go along with this man, Amelia pursed her lips. Her head hanging lowly as she was dragged along with this guy. Her bottom lips moved between her lips as she followed, doing her best to not cause any more trouble for herself then what's already been done.

As she was pushed into the SUV, Amelia frowned more as the man went through more of her pictures. Her heart sinking as he deleted more than just a few of those that she accidentally took of him and his group of hooligans.

The rest of the way to where ever they were taking her, Amelia was quiet. Even when they stopped and she was pulled into some creepy building, Amelia was quiet. She knew better than to talk at a moment like this, not that she'd have very much to say either. Although, when the man named Mark came out of the little insect nest that he crawled out of, Amelia couldn't help but cross her arms over her chest in fear as he circled her. The way that he was looking at her giving her shivers.

"I-I don't want to die." Amelia squeaked out as she glanced at the man named Mark and then the one she presumed to be called Luke. "What-what do you plan to do with me?" She asked quietly, fidgeting from one foot to the other.

--

A small chuckle escaped from Bryce as he leaned down and accepted the kiss from Mina. "Aww, that's my girl." He said teasingly as he stood up straight. "You'll have to wait and see," Bryce said once Mina was in the car and got in himself.

The drive to Mina's house was the usual. Small talk, joking and their usual banter. It was nice that they've known each other for years, it meant that they didn't hold very much back from each other. They were pretty inseparable when they were younger, then well, shit happened and he joined the gang, he followed the life that most in the neighborhood did. He was raised in the ranks though, so he was starting to make money now, which was freaking cool.

Getting out of the car, Bryce followed Mina inside her house. It didn't surprise him that it was a mess. "Mina, why don't you just move in with me already? I can take care of you." Bryce said as he followed her towards her toom. Being respectful enough to stand in the doorway so that she had some privacy.

"I already pick you up post days and you sleep at my place often enough." Bryce tried to reason with her. "Hell, I can get you into the gang. You can start earning money, an not have to worry about selling the cheap stuff that you can steal." Bryce walked more into the room and placed a hand on Mina's shoulder. "Seriously, you'll like being in the gang. It's really fun, you get booze and other shit for a lot cheaper than buying it from suppliers." He said, trying to sweeten the deal. "Shit, you can work under me. Be my underling."

Mark chuckled when she asked what they were going to do with her. “Well, you have the right image that nobody would suspect you of carrying drugs.” He said as he walked around her a little more. “You also look like someone who is good at keeping secrets. I will tell you one thing though. If you go to the police, i will just drag you down with us. You know, because you are now involved in gang activity and you will be smuggling drugs with us. Oh, and we can’t forget the fact that you were there the night of a murder.” He said.

Luke smirked when he heard Mark’s words. He knew that this wasn’t going to end well for this girl. Maybe she would like the gang life though. Most people actually really enjoyed it. He knew that when he started he was just a young kid and he was able to climb the ranks over time. Now he didn’t see himself in any other place, but with the gang. The money was awesome and he finally had a family that gave a shit about him.

“Take her upstairs and show her around. Don’t show her too much though. We don’t know if she will become a snitch. Though she learned tonight what happens to people that tell on us.” He said as he walked back into his little corner office.

Luke looked over at Amelia, “You are so screwed.” He said, shaking his head as he started to walk towards the stairs. “Let’s go.” He ordered as he took the first three steps. He knew that she would follow him and if she didn’t he would have to beat her up. He didn’t want to harm her perfect little face just yet.

---

Mina sighed when she heard him mention moving in with him. She zipped the duffel bag closed and stared down at it. “Yea move in with you so that she can cause more problems for me. I don’t want to cause any issues for you Bryce. You just got away from a bunch of shit.” She said. She bit her bottom lip lightly as she thought back to how shitty his childhood and his teen years had been. It was no wonder that he had joined a gang.

As she felt the warmness of Bryce’s hands she knew that he was going to bring up the gang again. It was something she had really been contemplating lately. The money would be great and being with Bryce was sounding better and better each day. She hated where she lived. She also didn’t know how she felt about being a criminal like that though. Then again just hanging out with Bryce made her an easy target. “I don’t know.” She muttered. “You make it sound good, but i have a feeling that it isn’t as grand as you make it out to be.” She said. She turned to face him, looking up at him. “I will think about it.” She told him.

Mina grabbed her back off her bed and put it over her shoulder. “Let’s get the hell out of here.” She said as she started to walk out of her bedroom. She turned off the lights and made her way to his car. Once she was in his car she felt a sense of relief come over her. She wouldn’t have to deal with her mom for a few days now and she could just enjoy the time with Bryce. “So why exactly do you have all this alcohol?” She asked as she turned to face him.

Oh, this could not be happening right now. Anything but this, Amelia was a straight-A student back home. She did volunteer work for the homeless, now. Now she was reduced to running drugs for some kind of gang. Could her life become any more crappy? It was like a hole was ripped into her life and she was just being crapped on none stop, just constant rainfall of shit.

A small groan escaped from Amelia as Mark left her to Luke. She tightened her arms a little bit more around herself as she followed the man that had brought her here. "That seems to be my life recently," Amelia mumbled quietly as she followed him towards some stairs. Her bright green eyes glancing around briskly as she tried to get a handle of what this whole place was about.

"What, exactly do drug runners do?" She asked quietly, staying a couple of steps behind Luke in case he turned on her and decided to push her down the stairs. Or, in case he stopped and she bumped into him, resulting in her falling down the stairs instead. "I don't have to swallow bags of things and puke them up for you guys like they showed in tv shows, do I?" Amelia asked quietly, terrified of dying from a drug overdose.

--

Just knowing that Mina was going to think about his offer was enough for Bryce. Hell, it was the best answer that he's gotten from her about the subject. Usually, she'd just turn him down or say that she was looking into continuing schooling and that she'll get in her way if she wanted to do something to get out of this place.

As they left the house and got back into the car, Bryce couldn't help the grin that appeared on his lips. "Well, I wasn't supposed to tell you this since you're not part of the gang." Bryce started as he drove down the street towards his apartment. "But since it's you, I feel like it'll be alright." He glanced towards her as the light turned red. "I got promoted to Area Leader." He told her, grinning. "Selling shit isn't my only job anymore." He told her, grinning from ear to ear. "Now, I got a few people under me to sell shit and I get a cut from everything they sell. Minus their share and the boss' share, I'm going to be making bank Mina. The boss gave me a case of booze as a reward as well. So you better fucking believe it that we're going to get shit faced tonight and tomorrow." He told her, looking forward as the light turned green.

Once they finally arrived at Bryce's crappy apartment, he opened the door and motioned for Mina to go in first. "Ladies first." He said and then stepped in behind her. "Sorry about the mess, haven't had time to clean it." He told her as he walked towards the kitchenette and opened the fridge to show her the four large bottles of vodka. "Wanna grab the shot glasses or just drink from the bottles?"

Luke chuckled when she asked what a drug runner did. He shook his head, “Basically, we are going to have you pick up the drugs and bring them back here. We separate them and then we have our guys deal them out.” He explained as he walked her to where they had some of the drugs at. He frowned as he heard her walking slowly behind him down the hallway. He stopped and turned to face her. “Could you walk any fucking slower?” He asked, glaring at her. He didn’t care if he wasn’t nice and he certainly didn’t care if people liked him or not. “You better learn your shit quick or you are going to die. This isn’t something to take lightly.” He warned her. He reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her towards him. “Be glad he didn’t make you do what he had made the other girls we found do. A lot of them spend a lot of time on their backs.” He said, smirking down at her.

He began to walk with her as if he didn’t just have that conversation with her and when they got to the room he opened the door to reveal a large variety of drugs. He knew that she would have to get use to all of this, but he was hoping she would learn quickly. He always hated stupid people. Luke looked at her, “I will take you on your first run, but i am not doing all the work. You will do most of it and I will guide you. Is that understood?” He asked, looking down at her.

Luke walked out of the room expecting her to follow him to the next area. He led her to a hallway that had a bunch of doors. “This is were most of the bedrooms are for the people who stay here. I assume that Mark will want you to stay here until he knows that he can trust you. All the new people have to stay in this place for at least the first few months.” He told her. He walked her down the hall and stopped at the last door on the left. “This is your room.” He said, opening the door. It was a small room with nothing on the walls. The only thing it had was a twin sized bed and a dresser. “Feel free to do what you want with it.” He said.

---

Mina looked over at him when he said he was made area leader. That was a pretty big deal for being in the gang. “Holy shit, that is awesome Bryce.” She said, smiling. She couldn’t believe that he was actually going to be making some decent money. It explained where he got such a nice car from. Plus, if she did decide to stay with him they wouldn’t be struggling as they both had in the past. She knew that she would have to give up the idea of going to college though. Maybe she wasn’t the right person for college. She didn’t like school anyway. The gang seemed to be a quicker way to make money and she didn’t want to be away from Bryce. He had been with her for so long that he was kind of a part of her now.

When they got to his apartment, Mina walked in and set her bag down on one of the chairs. “You say that every time I come over. Just admit that you don’t like to clean.” She teased him. She looked at the vodka in his hand and walked over to him. “Oh so you are making money and now we are fancy and need glasses?” She joked as she took the cap off of the bottle. She took a swig of the vodka, enjoying the burn as it went down her throat. It was a burn that she was all too familiar with. While her mom was big into drugs and Mina swore she would never do anything like that growing up. She found that she enjoyed getting drunk a lot. It was a good way to numb the pain.

Mina walked away from him and plopped down on his couch, kicking her shoes off. She had been spending a lot of time in his apartment. Come to think of it even when he lived on her street she used to sneak into his house to stay in his room a lot. She slept in the same bed as Bryce more than she slept in her own over the course of the years. She just found that she was more comfortable with him near her. “I am really glad that you are getting something you want Bryce.” She told him. She knew that it wasn’t the best job to have, but at least he was doing better than most people. He seemed happy too. She hadn’t seen him that happy in a long time.

It just burst out of Bryce, he couldn't hold it back much longer. A good long laugh escaped from the tattoo-covered man as he heard Mina's words. It's been so long since he laughed so carefree, without a care in the world. As if nothing in his life was falling apart without a way to fix it. "Alright, alright. I hate cleaning." He admitted and grinned as she moved towards him. His eyes moving towards her throat as he watched her chugging the vodka.

"Right, guess the cash is going to my head." Bryce murmured as he watched Mina heading over towards the couch and followed after her. Reaching out, Bryce grabbed the bottle of vodka from her and took a few long swigs of the strong liquor. The burning doing little to stop him from drinking large gulps. Then, a sigh escaped from him once he downed a third of the bottle. "Damn, that shit's good." He murmured as he handed the bottle back to Mina to have some fun with.

Hearing the kind words from Mina, a small smile displayed across Bryce's lips. "Thanks, Mina." He said calmly as he reached over with a free hand and teasingly ruffled up her hair. "Now, let's get this party started." He said as he leaned forward and grabbed the remote for his stereo. He turned it on and music started to play through the small flat. "Fuck, yes." He said as he waited to drink more of the vodka.

--

Hearing Luke's angry voice, Amelia about jumped out of her skin. Her bright green eyes widened as she faced forward and stared at him. Shaking a little bit as she stuttered out an apology. "I-I'm sorry I was just giving you some space." She rushed out, wincing as he yanked on her arm to move her closer to him. Her whole body tensing as he told her about the other woman that was found on the gangs' property. "I-I don't want that, please no," Lia said quietly, her skin paling as she felt her anxiety getting the best of her.

When Luke let her go and started to walk once more, Amelia made a mental note to stick as close to him as possible. Not walk behind him most likely, but walk with him instead. So, that's what she did, and she kept her eyes down so that she didn't start anything with the man. Glancing up as she heard a loud door squeaking, Lia froze and stared in surprise at all of the different drugs that filled the large supply room. "W-Woah." She squeaked out as she eyed everything. Then, she gulped as Luke's words drifted towards her and she got a gnawing feeling in the pit of her stomach. "Y-yes sir," she mumbled quietly and followed as he left the room.

"W-wait, I have to stay here?" Amelia stammered out as she followed Luke down the halls. Her bright green eyes taking the rows of doors, making this place seem more and more like a prison to her. Then, as they got to the room that was supposed to be her room, Amelia frowned. It was so bare and cold. She didn't even get a window. "Can I at least grab some things from home to bring here?" Amelia asked quietly as she took in the bare room. Her arms once again moving to cover her chest, a move she's always done when she was scared or nervous.

Mina watched as he took a swig from the bottle and she took it back from him. "This stuff is actually pretty good." She said as she looked at the bottle. It was definetely going to get them drunk. Mina took another swig from it before passing it back to him. She scooted over so he could join her on the couch.

Once they were halfway through the bottle she felt the alcohol starting to take affect. "I love this stuff!" She exclaimed laughing. She turned so she was facing him on the couch. "Bryce, this is like my favorite thing." She said as she hugged the bottle in her arms. She giggled, "It makes me happy." She said, as she looked at him. "You make me happy." She admitted. Bryce had always made her feel amazing.
--

Luke looked at her, "Yea you have to stay here." He said. He sighed when she looked all scared. Was this girl a coward? "You really need to get rid of that fear." He said. Luke looked at the empty room. "I don't think they are going to let you go back to your house. We can't trust you to do that." He said.

He sighed as he stepped away from the room. "Come on. I will show you around the streets." He said as he walked with her. He pulled his car keys out and headed towards the front doors. He knew that it would take some time for her to get use to the fact that she would have to watch where she went in the city. "Just know if you go into another gangs territory they will kill you." He said.

Everything in Amelia's stomach just dropped and she felt sick to her stomach. She might hate living at home right now, but her mom needed her. Hell, she needed her mom as well. They were going through a tough time, how was her mom suppose to go on knowing the only one on her side had disappeared? Kidnapped by a freaking gang?

Without saying a thing, Amelia turned and followed Luke once more. Her lips pursing into a thin line as she listened. "How would people know I'm from whatever place this is?" Amelia asked as they exited the warehouse and headed towards Luke's car. "It's not like I have a tattoo from you guys or something." She mumbled quietly, wrinkling her nose at the idea. Amelia was never a fan of tattoo. Nothing against people who had them, she just hated needles with a burning passion.

"How long have you worked the gang stuff?" Amelia asked quietly after a few moments. She stopped next to Luke's car. Waiting for him to open the door before she climbed inside and buckled her seatbelt. She might be handed with a thug, but she was not putting her safety at risk by not wearing one.

--

As Mina started going on about liking stuff, Bryce lifted his gaze and stared at her. His eyes blinking slowly, the alcohol affecting him more as he drank more of the vodka by chugging it. A small smirk started to slowly form on Bryce's lips as he listened to her. "I make you happy?" He asked, making sure that he had heard her correctly. Reaching out, Bryce took the bottle from Mina and downed a few more gulps before putting the bottle on the coffee table that he owned.

Shifting so that he was facing her, Bryce moved one arm so that it was resting behind Mina. "How much do I make you happy, explain that to me Mina bear." Bryce drawled out. His right hand moving out and he gently placed two fingers under her chin to make her look at him. His gaze flickered to her lips and he used his thumb to gently trace over the soft flesh. He's often wondered what she'd taste like. What it'd feel like to have those lips wrapped around him. They stared a bed so often, it was only normal for Bryce to want to know what more of Mina feels like.

"Mina." Bryce started, his words slowing as he looked back into her eyes. "Yr, very pretty." He told her. Staying put as he gaged her reaction to his drunken words. "We should make out." He mumbled, blurting his thoughts out to her.

Luke sighed, "They will know because they will notice you with us." He said as he began to drive. He was glad that she was quiet for awhile. Luke frowned when he heard her ask how long he was involved with the gang. It brought up memories he didn't want to think about.

The thought of his horrible drug addicted mother flooded his mind and he gripped the steering wheel tight enough to turn his knuckles white as he sped down the highway. He blinked and realized how fast he was going, glancing over at her. "Sorry." He said. He didn't want to scare her that way.

"I have been in the gang since I was fourteen." He told her. He had ran away from home the moment his mom brought in a boyfriend who hit him. It was either he left or he killed the guy. He wished he would have killed him though.

----

Mina nodded, "You make me very very happy." She replied. When Bryce called her Mina bear she felt like she was going to melt into a puddle right in front of him. It had always been the cutest thing she heard come out of his mouth. She looked at him, smiling. "You just do. You always have. You make me laugh when things are shitty and you give the best snuggles." She said, grinning.

She looked into his eyes as he ran his thumb over her soft lips. When he called her pretty she blushed, "You think so?" She asked as she scooted closer to close the gap between them. She could feel the heat from his body. Mina reached up and let her hand rest on his chest. She smiled when he mentioned making out. "Yea, we should." She whispered. "Because you are fucking hot." She slurred.

Mina glanced at him one more time before she leaned in and kissed him. She sat up on her knees so that she could get closer to him and deepened the kiss. Her hands moved to his cheeks as she let her tongue slip into his mouth, moving with his. A small moan escaped her lips as she kissed him.

A lopsided grin appeared on Bryce's lips as Mina agreed that they should make out. As she moved closer to him. His hands moved to rest on her sides, holding her as he leaned forward slightly so that she wasn't the only one who moved closer. His eyes closed and his lips parted as he welcomed her tongue into his mouth. Tasting her sweet taste mixed with the taste of the vodka.

Slowly lowering his hands, Bryce grabbed onto her hips and pulled them forward. Then, he used his chest to push her back so that she was laying down on the couch. The whole time, his tongue brushed against hers, fighting for dominance. His right hand slowly slid under her shirt and brushed against her soft skin. "Hmm, so soft. Mina bear." Bryce murmured as he pulled away from the kiss to get some air and then leaned down to kiss her once more.

For the longest time, Amelia was pretty sure that Luke wasn't going to answer her silly little question. It's not like she asked to join these guys, she was clueless about all of this stuff. Her mom was a house wife straight out of high school. Her dad was ten yeard older then her mom, and got her pregnant after a month of dating. Lia was raised with a silver spoon in her mouth. She was not used to any of these sorts of struggles. This isn't how her life was suppose to have gone.

"I-It's alright." Amelia squeaked out as she held onto the door handle as they zoomed down the highway. Her bright green eyes glanced towards Luke before looking back towards the window. "S-sorry if I made you upset." she said quiely, not wanting to press the matter any further, Amelia kept quiet the rest of the ride. Her focus instead on the surroundings that they past by.

Mina laid back as she felt him press her back on the couch. She laid back on the couch and looked up at him for a moment before she went back to kissing him. As soon as his warm hand made its way up her shirt she felt herself unravel. Why had she never done this with him before? Maybe it was because she was afraid to lose someone like him in her life. Relationships made things complicated and she knew that. She didn’t think that Bryce would ever be like that though. Mina smiled when he called her Mina bear again and she let her fingers trace his cheek. It was just amazing how much he had grown up in the last few years. She felt his lips on hers again as she moved to pull his shirt off.

She smiled as she dropped it to the floor. “I didn’t realize how many tattoos you had.” She said as her fingers traced them. She had never really looked at them when they went to bed because she didn’t want to invade his space. Mina pulled away and began to kiss down his neck, hearing his breathing. Mina could tell that he wanted to take this further than making out. She just wondered if he knew just how serious that was.

Luke pulled off the interstate and headed into a sketchy part of the city. He chuckled when he realized that she looked nervous. “Don’t worry. We own this part of the city.” He said as he cruised down the street. He knew that she probably wasn’t going to be cut out for this. Luke smirked to himself as he parked along the street and turned to face her some. “I am going to take you to a part we don’t own. Don’t look at anyone or in any direction. You can get shot for that there.” He said. He turned his attention back to the road and drove for a bit before he started down another street. Gunshots were heard int he distance. Don’t freak out.” He reminded her as he drove. Luke wasn’t worried about it because he wasn’t in his usual car. Once they were there long enough he pulled away and decided to head to a more calmer street.

“So, don’t go to that street. That is a place that will get you killed.” He told her. He knew that she would never go there on her own anyway. “Tell me about yourself princess.” He said. He knew that she was probably one of those spoiled girls who did whatever she wanted to. She clearly didn’t belong in the streets. She shouldn’t have even been walking in that area. “Why did you run away. Parents piss you off because they wouldn’t buy you something?” He asked her.

As Mina pulled his shirt off of him, Bryce pulled back slightly. A small smirk playing along his lip as he felt her fingers trailing along all of the little black lines on his chest. The intricate designs and the coloration that faded or bolded. "Most of the pieces are new. I've been collecting new pieces a lot recently." Bryce said as he looked into her beautiful dark eyes as he slipped a hand under her shirt completely.

The tips of Bryce's fingers brushed against Mina's skin and then stopped as he got to her bra. He pushed the annoying material up over her breasts and then cupped one of her mounds. His hands carefully needing the soft flesh there, then he smirked slightly as he pinched her nipple that was under his large hand.

"Have you done this before Mina bear?" Bryce asked as he pulled his hand away from her chest and moved to just take her shirt off of her completely. Dropping it on the floor on top of his.

Looking down, Mina's bra was still pushed up and showing him her beautiful bouncing breasts. The soft pink nips she owned peaking because of the cool air of his apartment. Slowly, Bryce licked his lips as he took in her appearance as she slowly became naked for him. Then, he leaned down and wrapped his lips around the nipple that he hadn't pinched and sucked on the bud for a moment before biting down. Wanting to hear her gasp for him.

--

If the color wasn't completely drained from her face before, it was now. Driving down the darkened street that the gang supposedly owned. The area looked like it was falling apart. Buildings had bars on their windows. Some sign was spray-painted on some of the buildings, that she couldn't quite make out because of the darkness. Not to mention the sight of some people standing in the alleys. Most likely selling shit to people to get them high or other illegal things.

"Wait, what?" Amelia asked as she quickly looked towards Luke. Her eyes widen as she realized his plan. He wanted her to realize what places she was safe, and others she wasn't. Right? To keep her caged like an animal. Well, she wasn't an animal. She was a human, and she immediately knew to listen to him. He didn't need to take her to this area. The first sound of gunshots had Amelia reaching out to hold onto his arm out of fear. She didn't like being shot at, nor did she ever want to be shot at. "I don't, I don't ever want to do that again." She mumbled quietly.

Once Luke pulled then towards a quiet place, Amelia slightly relaxed. Her hand that had grabbed onto Luke's instantly let go and went back to resting in her lap.

Slowly shifting, Amelia rested her head back against the seat and glanced towards Luke as he started to ask about her. A small snort escaping her because she found it kinda funny since they weren't friends. "I didn't run away, at least. I didn't plan to." She started, only stopping to collect her thoughts. "Mom moved us here after my dad filed for divorce. Seventeen years of her life, down the drain like that. He found a younger woman to cheat on her with and had a son with her. Left mom, who was his trophy wife and me, his daughter to defend for ourselves." Amelia's nose wrinkled as she spoke. "I am, was, a straight-A student while at my private school, haven't started the public school I was registered at yet, so I'd assume I'd still be a straight-A student. I was in all advanced classes as well. Schoolwork just came easy for me so I never had homework that took me more than a half-hour to do." Turning her head towards Luke, Amelia humphed. "I'm a nerd in every sense of it." She told him.

Mina smiled when he said that he had gotten new pieces. “I really like them.” She whispered. She bit her bottom lip lightly as she felt his hand slip under her shirt. She had never been so worked up about stuff like this, but with Bryce it was different. His fingers were a lot warmer than she expected them to be. As he took her breast into his hand she sucked in a breath. As he pulled his hand away he missed it a lot more than she thought she would.

“Yes.” She said as she nodded. She had hooked up with a few guys at party, but they didn’t mean anything to her. Something to just fill the void. She let him pull her shirt off, watching as he tossed it to the floor. She took her bra off and tossed it to the floor as well. She took the rest of her clothes off and looked up at him. She had never been one to be nervous about her appearance.

As his mouth wrapped around her nipple she gasped, feeling his teeth against her skin. Her hand moved up to his hair, running through it as she arched her body more to him. She closed her eyes as she felt her body start to get excited. “Bryce.” She breathed.

---

Luke smirked when she grabbed his arm. Good. She was afraid. That was exactly what he wanted. He wanted her to be scared and rely on him. He couldn’t help but chuckle when she said that she was a straight-A student. “So now you have nothing?” He asked. “Well, you have the gang now. Good thing we found you when we did. You would have been miserable.” He said, smiling before he put the car in drive. “We have some business to do.” He said as he started towards the highway again.

He drove to a local club and parked outside. “Come on.” He said as he got out of the car. He had to collect some money from the club and a few of his dealers. Luke took her hand and led her into the club, smirking as the bouncer looked the other way. “What do you want to drink?” He asked as he took her to the bar. He watched her and glanced at the bartender. His eyes moved around the bar as he tried to find the person he was looking for. “Where is Larry?” He asked, looking at the bartender.

“He is upstairs, sir. I can call him down if you want.” He said.

Luke shook his head, “No, I will go see him myself.” He said as he took a swig of his beer that was set in front of him. He looked at Amelia as her drink was placed in front of her. “Let’s go get this done.” He said as he placed his hand on the small of her back and led her through the club.

To be honest, Bryce wasn't listening to anything that Mina was saying. Well, sure he was listening, but he wasn't making conscious notes of what was being said and what wasn't. He was just interested in getting his dick wet at the moment. A Mina was the closest warm body that he could use to satisfy his drunken hunger for a partner to party with.

A small groan escaped from Bryce as Mina arched into him. Her breast that wasn't in his mouth brushing against him and sending a chill down his spine. "Mina." He breathed out as he let her breast go. His eyes taking in her naked body for a few moments before he moved to slither out of his jeans and boxers. Allowing him to be just as free as she was at the moment.

Then, he gathered both of her hands into one of his and pinned them above her head on the couch. Leaning down, Bryce pressed his lips over Mina's once more. This time, he took control of the kiss as he pushed her legs apart for him. His free hand trailed over her bare stomach for a few moments before trailing between her legs and started to teasingly rub her folds, wanting to her as excited for him as he was her.

--

"Y-yeah, lucky me," Amelia mumbled quietly as Luke said now she had the gang. She didn't want to be part of this thing. She was forced into it, she was freaking kidnapped and given the ultimatum of dying or working for them. Hopefully, if she ever gets caught, she could tell them her story and she could get off scot-free. The cops would believe her, right? Right?

As they pulled up to a club, the first thing Amelia tried to do was tell Luke that she wasn't old enough to go in there. Of course, though, the guy didn't listen to her and dragged her inside. Her bright green eyes looked around as the music boomed from the speakers and then to the people who were dancing. Amelia didn't have anything against people who danced in clubs, she's just never been to one before and it interested her.

"Huh? Oh." Amelia mumbled quietly as she looked towards Luke and then the person working the bar. "Um, whatever's popular?" She told the bartender, not sure what else to say to them. The person nodded and then a few moments later set a pretty drink in front of her. "Thanks," Amelia said quietly as she grabbed her drink and took a sip as Luke placed his hand on her back. "What do we have to do here?" Amelia asked quietly, leaning into Luke as they moved through the crowd of dancing people.

Mina laid there and watched as Bryce removed his jeans and his boxers. She couldn’t take her eyes off of him and she felt like everything was in slow motion. Maybe it was the alcohol that was making everything feel amazing. She brushed a loose strand of hair from her face and a small smile came to her face when he grabbed her hands and pinned them above her head. Before she could say anything her mouth was covered by his and she eagerly kissed him back.

She moaned as she felt his fingers begin to rub her. Her hips moved to meet his touch as he teased her and she felt herself getting wetter by the second. He was clearly better at this than any of the guys she had been with before. “Bryce, quit teasing.” She whined as she bucked her hips towards his touch. She felt like she was going to go mad if she didn’t have him inside of her soon.

Mina moved her arms, wanting to touch him, but she noticed that he had a pretty strong grip on her. She pouted slightly when he didn’t let go. All this teasing didn’t seem very fair and she knew she was going to have to get back at him one day. The thought of him writhing beneath her only turned her on more. Maybe she could just have him like this all the time. She had been missing out this whole time.

“We have to get some money from them. They are partnered with us.” He said as he led her upstairs where nobody was allowed to go. He knocked on the door and waited. “Larry, open the fucking door.” He growled. He smirked as the door opened, “Well, hello sunshine.” He said to the older man. He stepped in with Amelia, seeing the way Larry looked at her. “She is with the gang. Don’t worry about her.” He assured him.

Luke sat down in one of the big chairs and motioned for Amelia to sit as well. “It is that time of the month and I am here to collect.” He said, then took a swig of his beer. He knew that Larry would have the money because he had always been loyal to the gang. He knew that it offered his club protection.

Larry set a huge stack of money on the table. “It is all there. You can count it if you want to.” He said.

“I don’t need to count. I trust that you wouldn’t try to short us now.” He said as he took the money and tucked it into the inside pocket of his jacket. “You know you have really turned this place around. It actually looks like somewhere i would want to hang out.” He teased the older man.

Larry chuckled, “Well anytime you decide that you want to swing by let me know. I will set up the VIP section for you and the boys.” He said.

Luke nodded, “Alright, maybe we can work something out then. I wouldn’t mind having a few beers and hanging out here.” He told him.

"Partnered?" Amelia repeated as she followed Luke up some stairs that lead to another level. It was quieter up here, so she could only assume that it leads to private rooms of some sort. Most likely where the employee's take their breaks or something. Amelia's mind refusing to go any further than that.

Then, glancing forward, Lia gulped as Luke knocked on some office door and a man opened. It was weird that she was here and this guy didn't even comment on her looking to young for the club scene. Although, the drink she was forced to take probably pushed his thoughts away. Or, whatever Luke said about being partnered did. Either way, she followed the guy who was showing her the ropes into the office and took a seat.

Raising her glass, Amelia took a few sips of her drink through the straw she was given. It didn't taste like alcohol, she didn't even know what was in it. If anyone asked, it was just orange juice with some kind of cherry extract. Maybe the bartender could tell she was nervous because she didn't know what to drink?

Glancing back towards the men, Amelia's eyes widened as she watched Luke pocket some money. Realizing what he was talking about, Lia pursed her lips and looked down. So this sort of thing wasn't just in movies.

Listening to Mina begging for him to stop teasing her brought a smirk onto Bryce's lips. He found it amusing. "My, is someone begging to be taken?" He asked, a sense of teasing in his words as he raised his head and looked down into her pretty brown eyes. "You mean, you don't want this anymore?" He asked as he slowed his fingers that were teasing her.

"Tell me Mina, how badly do you want me?" Bryce asked as he looked down at her. "How badly? Tell me Mina, I wanna hear you say it." He asked, breathing the words out against the crest of her ear, nipping the shell teasingly before allowing for a small smirk to play along his lips as he listened to her breathing picking up at his teasing words. "Have you been good Mina?" Bryce asked, pulling away and looking down at her once more. His hands tightening a little bit on her. "Or have you been bad?"

Without even giving Mina a warning, Bryce slowly pushed into Mina. His eyes closing as he felt her wrapping around him as he pushed into her. Feeling how tight she was she she fit like a glove. A small satisfied groan escaping from the drunken Bryce as he felt his hard dick aching for more of her. To be completely inside of her.

Luke finished off his beer as he spoke with Larry for awhile. He knew they had a few other stops to make, but he figured he could let her finish her drink. He glanced over at her as she drank her drink. Maybe she would be useful in the future. People didn't seem to question her or why she was around. He got to his feet as she finished the drink and motioned for her to stand. "It was nice chatting with you Larry but we have to get going." He said. He watched as Larry took the empty glass from her and then Luke led her out of the room.

"You know, you didn't do bad for your first time." He said as they walked down the stairs. "At least you know when til keep your mouth shut." He said. Luke led her through the crowd of people til the made it outside. He checked his watch, "I have to pick up from my dealers. Get in the car." He said as he got into the driver's seat. He started the car and headed towards another part of town. The farther he drove the more run down it started to look. He smirked as he noticed her glancing around. "Yea, imagine growing up here." He said as he parked outside of Kyle's apartment. "Let's go get that cash." He said, hopping out of the car. He lit a cigarette as he waited for her. Luke glanced around before walking up to the apartment and knocking on the door. "Open up asshole!" He yelled.

The sound of stuff being moved was heard before Kyle opened the door. "Hey Luke." He said, leaning against the doorframe. He looked over and noticed Amelia. "Oh is this my early birthday present? He asked.

Luke punched him in the chest, "No fuckface she is new to the gang." He snapped at him.

Kyle rubbed his chest, "Fine, fuck you didn't have to hit me. Let me get the cash." He said as he moved to get the money.

---

Mina nodded when he asked if she was begging. She looked at him as he started to slow his fingers down. "Bryce,." She breathed. She didn't think she had ever wanted someone so badly. She knew that he had a way of making her feel special.

"I want you so badly. Bryce please quit messing with me." She pleaded, looking up at him. She closed her eyes, letting out a shakey breath when he whispered into her ear. She smiled a little when he asked if she was a good girl. When he tightened his grip she gasped. "When am I ever a good girl?" She asked as she moved beneath him.

Mina moaned as she felt Bryce push into her. She looked up at him, wanting to touch him so badly. She moved her hips to get him in a little farther. "Bryce, please in need more." She breathed. The alcohol had her mind fogged and all she could think of was him and what they were doing.
