CHAPTER 2
"Do you even have a job set up for you down here?" We were sitting around the kitchen table, eating pizza. "I have enough money to live comfortably for awhile, but we're gonna need jobs."
"Correction, I need a job, you can live off the money your grandfather left you. How much money is that again?"
"More than I'll ever need. And I told you that I need to work, if I don't I'll go nuts. How many times do we gotta go over this, Katie. I know that I brought it up, but still." I felt like hitting something. Every time we talk about money, or bills, or anything, she always brings up the fact that my grandfather left me more than 20 million dollars. It wasn't my fault!
"Yeah, yeah, I know. I've been thinking that maybe I could get a job as a bartender. What do you think?" I'd pay to see that. But I decided to humor her.
"You could do that, if you want. I don't see why not."
"You think, or are you just pullin my strings?" I lazily smiled. "Randy!" Busted.
"Katie, you should think about something more like being a waitress. Yeah, you could do that." She just shrugged her shoulders. "But in the meantime I have to go out and find a nice color to paint the house. This is going to take awhile. You wanna come with?"
"Nope."
"A'ight. See-ya later."I grabbed my keys and walked out. I pulled up to the mall, so I could find what I needed and still do some shopping. I spent most of the day walking around and looking at paint samples, trying to figure out which one would go best. I ended up picking a light blue color, with a dark blue color for the border. Hopefully, Katie would like it. I walked around the rest of the mall, going in and out of stores, always having at least one bag with me when I walked out. When I was done I drove back home.
"Hey, Katie! You home? I found a nice color for the house!"
"We're in the living room watching Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back!" We're? Who else was here. Dom's crew. "Hey! You went shopping to? Bitch. Why didn't you say you were goin shoppin, I woulda came along."
"If you don't come pick out the paint, then you don't go shopping. Easy as that." I put my bags on the floor and sat don't on Vince. "I gotta call Jase and tell him to round up the fuckers and tell them to get over her and paint the damn place."
"Call `em later. Have some fun first." Just as I started to relax, the doorbell rang. "Randy? Can you get that? It's the pizza boy." I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah sure I can, why not, I do everything else anyway! Gimme the cash." I opened the door and handed him the money. "Thanks, keep the change."
$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%THE NEXT DAY$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%$%
"Randy, get yer ass up before I jump on it!" I rolled away from her. "I'll start to sing... it's been a long hard road without you by my side."
"Alright! I'm up, don't you dare sing that anymore, you'll give it a bad name!" I looked at the clock, 6:45. "What the fuck?! You better have a good reason ta be waking me up at this hour."
"Jesse invited us to go to the beach with them, so c'mon! We leave in an hour." She bounced out of the room. *Why did I want to come here again? Oh yeah, coz there's nothin left for me up there.* I dragged my ass into the shower and when I got out, I went through all my clothes until I found my two piece, leopard swimsuit. I pulled on a baby blue sun dress on over it.
"Are we taking you're car our mine?" I already knew that answer, so there was rally no point in asking, we would take my car. I grabbed my keys and we went over to the Toretto's. We took two cars, my GTO, and Leon's Skyline. Dom, Letty and Vince were with me, and Katie, Jesse, and Mia were with Leon.
"I hate this, I really hate this, Saturday's are the days you spend in bed, not out at the beach." Letty and I grumbled the all the way to the beach. Vince agreed with me, while Dom just told us to shut up. I pulled in beside Leon and we all got out. "Whose idea was this? I swear I'll kill ya!"
"Shut up, rich girl, no body wants ta hear from ya."
"There you go, throwing that in my face again! Jesus Christ, son of that stupid bitch Mary! It wan't my fault that he left me that money!" I wanted to wrap my hands around her neck and squeeze until her eyes popped out.
"I know, sorry." The day ended up very relaxing and I ended up enjoying it. A few time I thought I saw somebody I knew but I never.
