And now what you've all been waiting for….here's chapter 10!

Chase's pov:

It seemed like forever walking to Charlie's house. Man I wish I'd brought a jacket. It's chilly out here. When I reach his house, I knock on his door. It takes a while but finally he opens the door.

"Oh hey Chase" he says with a smile, "Come on in." I slowly walk in. It's going to be so hard to explain this to him. I mean my money helps him pay his bills and everything. "What's up kid? You wanna beer? Where've you been? It's been weeks since I've seen you." I sit down as he hands me a beer can. Even though I really want one, I promised Leo I would try to get off of drinking beer and taking pills.

"No thanks" I say pushing the can away, "I'm fine."

"Oh" he opens the beer and takes a sip of it, "It's cool. Where've you been?"

"Oh funny story" I explain, "Apparently I accidently took an overdose of my pills and I was in the hospital for a couple of days and my family kept a good eye on me for a week when I got home." I wasn't going to dare say anything about Davenport knowing Charlie's name.

"Oh that's too bad man" he replied. He looked sad for a minute, but then snapped out of it, "You come back to buy some more pills?" Was he serious? I just told him I took an overdose and he's still offering me pills?

"Well that's what I wanted to talk to you about" I start. His full attention went onto me. "I-I…" This is going to be so hard. "I-I don't want any pills." He stared for a while and then he chuckled.

"Haha good one Chase. Haha that made me laugh!"

"No I mean it." His smile suddenly changed into a huge frown.

"What?!" he exclaimed raising his voice, "What do you mean you're not buying anymore pills?"

"I can't. I'm getting addicted to them. I need to stop taking them Charlie. I'm sorry." He slowly stood up and out of nowhere flipped a side table near him. I jumped a little.

"What?!" he screamed, "Those pills I sell you are my only ticket to making money!" His face was redder than a tomato. Wait. Does he even care that the pills he gave me almost killed me?

"Charlie calm down. I told you I almost died from them, do you even care that I almost died?" He doesn't respond. "You are my friend right and friends help each other right?" No response. "Right!?" He gave me a cold glance.

"Look kid I'm not your friend. " My heart skipped a beat. "I never was. I just needed the money." I felt used and stupid. Davenport was right. He wasn't my friend. He was just a big liar. A fake. A drug dealer. I suddenly stood up furious. All this time all I've even been to this jerk was nice and this is how he's going to treat me? Then under his breath he said, "I don't know what this has to do with anything but your dad looked so familiar though when I saw him. He looks like someone my dad used to know. He was a jerk to my dad. I knew I shouldn't have done this….you're just like him." What? He knows Davenport?!

"You're a jerk!" I scream. "And I'm not buying anything from you ever again! You know what! My dad was right about you. I'm leaving." I start to leave.

"Wait you told YOUR DAD ABOUT ME!?" He then starts searching around for something, "Oh man I need to calm down, where are my drugs?"

"I sure did and I'm actually glad I did too. Now stop talking to me. You're lucky I'm not going to tell my dad where you live."

"YOU GET BACK HERE!" Before I could open the door, he spins me around and starts shaking me by the shoulders. "I NEED MY MONEY CHASE! GIVE ME MY MONEY! AND YOU BETTER NOT TELL YOUR FATHER ANYTHING ABOUT ME EVER AGAIN!" Man he needs to calm down. I need to get out of here.

"Let go of me!" I cry struggling to break free from him, "I have bionics you know and I'm not afraid to use them." Not like they would help me get out of his grasp though. Charlie feels as strong as Adam.

"I'M NOT LETTING YOU GO UNTIL I GET SOME MONEY FROM YOU!" he shakes me harder.

"STOP!" I scream hoping someone from the next door apartment could hear me, "LET ME GO!"

"You're not going anywhere until I get my money! I guess I'm going to have to force you to give me my money! " His money!? Ok Charlie's totally insane! He starts leading me back towards another room. "You wanna know what happened to the last kid who didn't want to buy anymore pills from me?!" What's he going to do to me?

"You'll never get MY money! My dad was right! You're nothing but a low down dirty DRUG DEALER!"

"WHY YOU LITTLE….." Before I knew it I was shoved down rather hard and everything went black.

Charlie's pov:

"…You're nothing but a low down dirty DRUG DEALER!" My whole world froze. Did this spoiled bionic brat just call me that? I suddenly felt more anger than before boiling inside of me. Nobody calls me low down and dirty! What does this kid even know about me? He doesn't know how much work I do everyday just to pay bills. I let my anger get the best of me.

"WHY YOU LITTLE…" I suddenly felt myself roughly and hardly shove Chase down towards the ground. I thought he was going to land on the floor, but he didn't. The back of his head slammed down hard against the coffee table and he fell onto the floor. His body was still and no sound came out from him. My eyes almost pop out of my eyes. Oh no. What have I done? I didn't mean to shove him. Man this would've never had happened if I would've found my drugs and calmed down a little.

I run over to him and kneel beside him. He is lying on his stomach. "Chase?" He remained as still as a rock. "Chase?" I slowly turn him over and there's blood oozing out of the left side of his head. Oh my gosh what have I done? I killed him. I didn't really want to hurt him! I just threatened him only to scare him into giving me my money. I can't back to jail. I already killed a teenage boy a couple of months ago from doing this and I can't go back to jail for killing another kid, especially a bionic kid!

I glance and see Chase move his arm a little bit. Did he just move? I checked his pulse. He has a heart beat! I cheer silently. Yes I didn't kill him! But then my cheering stopped. Now what am I going to do? When he wakes up he's going to just go home and tell his dad where I live and the police will come and arrest me! Let me move him to the couch before I start thinking of ideas to get out of this mess.

I pick up Chase and toss him on the couch. He softly groans. I pick up his cell phone from the floor that had fallen out of his pocket when I put him on the couch. He has several text messages from somebody named Leo. The texts read, "Where are u?" and "I'm telling Big D" and "We're on our way to Charlie's!" Wait they were talking about me! That text was sent 10 minutes ago. That means they could be here at any minute. I have to get out of here. I need to think of a place I could go. I don't know. I'll think of something while driving. I look back over at Chase. I need to take him with me! If I don't his dad will come here and find him, and Chase could scent me out with his super senses and I'll be locked up for sure. I decide to shake Chase awake so I don't have to carry him. He'll be too confused to know what would be going on so I could easily take him to my car. He has to be coming to by now. It's been about 5 minutes.

"Chase" I say shaking his shoulders, "Wake up, we need to go." He just moans in pain again. Before I can say anything else, I hear loud banging on the door.

"OPEN UP CHARLIE!" I hear a man say, "WHERE'S MY SON?!" Oh no that must be Chase's dad! I can't leave now! What do I do now!? Chase groans loudly from hearing the banging on the door.

"Shh" I tell him, "Shut up kid. You're going to get us caught." I guess that worked because he stopped making so much noise. I then sit on the couch beside Chase and think about what my next move would be.

How'd you like that? Was it good? What do you thinks' going to happen next? What do you think of Charlie now? REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW as always my friends. You know I love them! And remember to go vote for what Christmas story I should post. You can vote by going to my profile page. Good night!
