"BD," he greeted calmly.
"I'll give you your reward tomorrow."
"I'll look foward to it. Are races still on tomorrow?" He asked, as I walked into the living room, everyone looking at me.
"Yeah, they're on, but at the other location. Good luck, Serp. Stay low."
"Will do. And I must say you look really sexy when you're mad."
"I try," I muttered, not in the mood for his flirting. "I'll see you tomorrow."
I hung up before he could say another word and threw my phone against the wall, sighing, as it smashed and fell to the floor in pieces.
"Fucking funds are coming out of our fucking asses," I seethed.
"Woah, woah, woah," Deo said, immediately standing in front of me. "What happened, girl?"
"He's caught and nothing's going to happen for a while," I muttered. "I got to pay for his daughter to have a nice life until she's eighteen. Three fucking years. And if not, she goes to an orphanage. And he- Ugh. I hate that fucking Dennis Holliday."
Deo smirked, "So, you got him and he's taken care of."
"Is that blood?" Rosalie asked suddenly. I looked to where she was looking at saw dried blood on my shirt, as well as hands and neck. Damn it. And since when did Rosalie get back? Just now with Alice?
"Damn it, I thought I was careful."
"Did you kill someone?" Esme gasped.
I looked up, "Nope. Just a little fighti-"
"Breaking news!" The television screamed. I jumped for the remote, but Edward grabbed it and turned the TV up. "A body, identified as Dennis Holliday, has been found behind Holden and Scream St. Apartments. Holliday appears to have been beaten and then shot once through the head, underneath the jaw. Anyone that knows any information about his murder, please contact. . ."
All of the Cullen's were looking at me. "Bella-"
"I need ten thousand dollars for tomorrow to give Serp," I told my crew, cutting Edward off. "Black Six won this round. Get some sleep. We got a big day tomorrow. Painting and staying low. Races are at the other place tomorrow, due to safety measures. Mass text the crews. Serp already knows."
The crew nodded and I walked to the bathroom, washing my neck and any blood exposed flesh thoroughly. I grabbed the clothes that had blood on them after my shower and walked to the fireplace in the living room, throwing them in. I made sure they were ashes before I walked into the living room.
"Alright, so, tomorrow. Races. Money. And Deo, I'm finding you a girl."
His eyes widened, "No."
"Why not?" I asked him. "Seriously, was I that bad that time that you've turned celibate?"
Deo laughed, "No, girl, you were fantastic."
"Riiight," I said sarcastically. "Alright, so let's get this straight, I was fantastic, yes you can't find another person?"
"I could but I don't want to."
"Why the hell not?" I sighed. "I hate seeing my crew celibate."
Deo rolled his eyes, "I've just got to find the right girl, that's all."
I let it drop, seeing something flash in his eyes. He wanted to fuck someone, but it wasn't any girl. No, no, he wanted to fuck me.
"Alright, well then, B, help me fine tune the cars tomorrow. Mine had a small whine to it tonight. Sar, you and the Cullen boys are going to paint the kitchen. Rosalie, Esme, Alice, I'm going to call Steph and you can go have a girls day with her and Kandy."
"Can I help with the cars?" Rosalie asked.
Sar sighed, "So hot."
"Sure, but don't touch anything that would harm it or cause it to go slower," I said in a strong tone. She nodded and I turned to Edward, "Especially if someone tells you to."
"Alice, Esme, looks like its just you two with Kandy and Steph."
"I thought Steph hated you," Alice asked.
"Oh, she does," I laughed. "She just is jealous of my power. Don't worry. You guys can have a little make over time. Steph definately needs it. Kandy's the bad-ass of the Black Six, and the only female racer besides me here."
Alice and Esme nodded and I flipped through the channels, finding the SPEED network. I tossed a hundred on the table. "Hundred on Dalk."
People started to put money on the table, taking bets on who would win. In the end i won every round.
"How do you do that?" Deo asked, emptying his wallet into my waiting hand.
I smiled, "Look at their cars, look at the drivers, look at the years of driving. That's how."
My crew laughed, but the Cullen's looked completely out of their element. They had no idea how to react.
The clock in the kitchen chimed six in the morning and I stood up. "Night everyone," I smiled. "Sweet dreams and happy races."
"Night!" People called. I headed to my room and lifted the bloody bullet into my hand. The regret that flowed through me brought me to my knees and I felt tears pour from my eyes. Never have I cried over this. I was confused now. Why was I crying over this man? He was a stranger that tried to sentence me to a life in jail. I had to do what I did to protect my friends and territory. I shook my head, wiped my eyes, and set the bullet into the glass jar in my side table before sliding into bed.
"Bella," I heard a voice murmur from the door.
"Edward," I replied.
"Did you kill that cop?" he asked, sliding into bed with me, causing the sheets to instantly cool.
"I don't want to talk about it," I said softly. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight."
"I know you did, Bella. Alice saw it seconds before it happened."
"When people don't follow my rules they pay the consequences," I replied, shrugging, and closing my eyes. "Those that try to harm my friends, crew, and turf get what they deserve."
"He had a daughter, Bella! A family!" Edward protested.
"I know. He made that very clear. I am looking out for her. I'm giving her money to live on her own should she chose it."
"But she's fifteen. The state will never allow that to happen."
"They will when they read the letter I sent to her," I whispered. "No more talk, Edward. Night."
I ignored all of his questions there-after and drifted into a peaceful sleep. I woke up as the sun peaked through the windows. I sat up in bed and saw that the alarm clock said it was three. I took a shower and changed into some really short jean shorts and a white tank top with lots of paint and grease stains on it. I put my hair in a bun and walked into the kitchen, grabbing some cereal and milk out of the fridge. Is it weird we put cereal in the fridge? Yes. But it keeps the bugs from getting it.
