Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Not really," she shrugged. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I see," he nodded as he considered it for a moment. "Does he like you?" @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I guess. We've been hanging out most nights." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Like more than friends," Richie clarified. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I know what you meant." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I think he drugged you last night," Richie said after a long pause before he took his next bite of food. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Why?" she asked, finally looking up. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Because when I pulled up outside of that shit hole you're staying at he was pacing, running his hand through his hair, biting his nails and arguing with a bunch of other kids and I know you were drugged. You were nearly unconscious before I got you into my car." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "He wouldn't need to drug me," she frowned. They'd already fooled around a few times. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Apparently he didn't think so or he figured it would open you up to more. Seen kids like that sell girls to people for a brain dance snuff film. Shit like that gets people off and who is gonna miss a girl like you?" he asked with a straight face as he took the final bite of his food and stood up to turn around and rinse his plate to put it into the dishwasher. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 Kae remained silent and just looked down at the plate in front of her, aimlessly pushing the eggs around a little more. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Richie turned to look at her. Crossing his arms over his bare chest. "So am I going down to the gym to work out or am I taking you back to the shit hole?" @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Well everything I've got is there," she shrugged without looking up, "I can get myself back." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Yeah. Not going to happen. Let me go grab my keys and a shirt. Your shoes are next to the couch," he indicated toward it. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 She didn't have the energy to argue with him, so she just got up to go retrieve her shoes without protest. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Richie went down the hall and grabbed a tank top that was still basically see-through, his bat and keys once he slipped his shoes on. He walked back out into the living room. "Come on," he said. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 When he emerged again Kae stood up and walked around the couch. She stopped when she saw him, looking between him and the bat a few times. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "If you're not going to take my attempt to help you for yourself I'm going to at least make sure that your little shit head friend knows that if you somehow get hurt he's answering to me," Richie said. "And lets be honest, its better than me sending the cities meanest judges after him. Punisher and Duchess are good friends and won't just threaten," he reminded her of her wounded leg. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 Kae huffed softly as she looked at the bat. "I guess I'll stay here," she finally relented, if only because she didn't see her day getting any better if he followed through. She already felt like garbage without having to worry about where to crash because she got kicked out. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Yeah right," he said to her indicating toward the door. "You've already slapped my hand away once. I'm not waiting for you to sneak out while I'm not looking cause if you do I'm calling my judge friends and I'll let them go freak out your little shit hole. Come on," he indicated toward the door again. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I won't go anywhere. You getting me kicked out isn't much better than your crooked judges torching it. I'm sleeping in a box either way." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Richie tensed his jaw a few times before adjusting the bat. It was his dad's if he were honest because Seth was always the baseball boy. It took at least a solid minute before he finally relented. "Fine. But I'm not getting you another fucking apartment like I did last time. You stay in my guest room and you have to be back here by eleven, even if I'm not." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaella Corvus Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Okay. Fair." She was kind of out of choices. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richard Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "No more of the bullshit with the thugs and shit. You have to look for a real job. I'll have my fixer fix your crap but you have to give me all your legit paperwork," he added. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
