Since time began

We have lived

In the shadows of the moon

And the blood of the earth

Today we will rise,

And the world will be ours

Beyond dark and light

Beyond fire and water

Beyond dusk till dawn

Chapter One

Kate's POV

I cut the ends of my hair and tried to make it…well better than it was.

I haven't seen my family in a month, we hopped from one motel to the other and none of them seemed to get any cleaner. The TV played in the living room, you could hear the shots of guns and I had to smile. Richie loved his old westerns.

Sighing lightly I pulled my hair into a pony tail and made my way in the living room, well living room was a bit of a stretch.

Seth was sleeping on top of the bed I couldn't help but gaze over him, everything had come so fast this past couple of months, it was hard to believe really.

Grabbing my bag I walked over to Richie and pecked him on the lip, he grabbed my hips before I could get away, I gasped as I straddled him, his lips began to move seductively across my skin, nipping and kissing on my pulse point. I raked my finger nails across his scalp which he practically purred with pleasure.

It had been so long since we had last been intimate, it was in my bedroom before we set the plan in motion to bust Seth out of Jail. He moved his hips so his manhood rubbed against me.

"O god!"

His breathing began to pick up, he maneuvered us so my back was pressed against the couch. Our lips joined and I sighed in pleasure, he was such a good kisser.

His hand slowly made it's way up my shirt, Goosebumps appeared over my skin I happened to open my eyes and turn to the left side to see a giant cockroach walking to me

"Cockroach!" I moved from underneath Richie and to the other side of the room, I saw Richie lift his foot and kill it. In the commotion I had woken up Seth, he sprinted up with his gun in hand

"What the hell?"

His sleepy eyes looked around the room, trying to establish what was wrong

"It's just a cockroach" Richie sighed

Seth sighed and rubbed his eyes "Fuck I thought someone was getting killed"

Huffing I grabbed my purse and practically ran from the room, gah! I hate insects.

Seth's POV

We were running out of beer

No doubt Kate would get some while she was out.

"So what's the plan here, we just keep jumping from place to place until we rob this bank" Richie asked

"Yep, Vanessa…"

He groaned

"Don't start Richie, Vanessa is watching the place"

"Joy" grabbing a beer he joined me on the couch

The old western was a classic, Rio Bravo starring Dean Martin

"Remember when the old man watched this?"

"Hmm" Richie took a big sip of his beer "He used to base himself of John Russell"

Chuckling harshly I continued to watch the film

Kate's POV

I placed the coins in the telephone box as quickly as I could. I eyed the police at the shop with pictures of all of us, luckily I managed to spot them before they spotted me.

"Hello?"

"Brianna it's Kate"

There was silence on the other line before I heard shuffling "Kate where the hell are you?" she hissed down the phone "I've been worried sick"

"I know I'm sorry it's just…I've got a problem"

"Damn right you got a problem, what the hell are you thinking doing running off and breaking out Seth"

In the back of my mind I'm thinking I should have called Ann

"Look Brianna I'm sorry but I need your help"

Sighing on the other end she replied "What do you need me to do"

"Can you get a hold of Big Bob, he knows a guy at The Hermitage Hotel in Nashville right?"

"Yeah but…wait your in Nashville?"

"Not right now, but we will be, please Brianna" I eyed the cops who were now moving to the hotel, Crap!

"Ok, make your way there and to the back entrance"

"Thank you so much and I promise I'll call you when I'm there"

"Be safe Kate"

"I will"

Hanging up the phone I ran to the hotel.

Richie's POV

Seth was hunting down some food we had left in the bags

"Richard"

O shit! No

Turning I saw her on the bed, her legs crossed and yet again another bra and panties

"I'm waiting for you Richie, your close" closing her eyes she continued "so close Richard"

"Hey!" I got a smack over my head, Seth looked at me his eyebrows furrowed together "I've been calling you name for the past five minutes"

The door banged open and Kate barged in, she was slightly out of breath "Cops"

Without anything needed we packed up our stuff and quickly moved out.

Kate's POV

We made our way to the Hermitage Hotel. Seth parked the car in the back lot .

I beamed as I saw Big Bob, he was kind of like a uncle we never had to all of us, he grinned when he saw me, he was a large latino man with no hair and huge muscles.

"Hey Katie-cakes"

The name pulled at my heart strings, I smiled and hugged him tightly

"Hey"

Pulling back he eyed the Geckos who were giving him the same look back

"They're friends Bob"

Scoffing he opened the back door "some friends, in you go I've got your room set up"

I wasn't one for swearing

But holy shit!

This place was huge.

I gawked at the shower and nearly melted with joy, the brothers laughed at me as I practically charged into the shower.

(+)(+)

By the time I got out it was quiet in the room, the TV was the only thing which lit the dark room, Seth turned and gawked, I only wore a towel

"Where's Richie?"

"Downstairs, Bob said he was playing poker tonight, big stakes"

Nodding I sat opposite him and he looked down my body

"I need a shower, didn't use all the hot water did you?"

Rolling my eyes "No"

Smirking he pecked my lips before going into the bathroom.

Seth POV

I breathed in an out.

I couldn't take it anymore I needed Kate

Really fucking badly.
