Chapter two: My new life.
Disclaimer: I do not own Saints Row.
After a night of tossing and turning, Kevin thought the events of yesterday was a nightmare. Well, a nightmare with a shade of good, Lin of course. But yes, it seemed like a bad/semi good dream for Kevin. Taking his phone off his charger, he saw he had a three hour conversation with a girl named Lin. His phone helped him remember. His phone, and the horrible aching in the back of his head. "Thanks Johnny." He said to himself. He remembered he had things to do with Johnny today. After getting dressed in a purple t-shirt, a black button up shirt, black baggy jeans and his new black and purple sneakers, he examined himself in his wall mirror. Hoping he was looking good for Lin, he sprayed on some body spray and walked out his bedroom. He bumped into his roommate Jake.
"Damn amigo, where you headed off looking so good?" Jake asked with a smile.
"Just got some things to do." Kevin told him.
"Whats her name Kev?" Jake asked with an even bigger smile.
"What? A guy can't look nice while taking care of his errands?" Kevin asked him.
"Looking this good, I'm sure those 'errands' will be well taken care of." Jake said with that same big smile. Deciding not to respond, Kevin walked out the front door. He was glad he avoided Anthony, no doubt he would've had a ton of more sex jokes than Jake did. Walking up to his "new" Hollywood, he looked it over. It was a rusty brown color, with a bent antenna, missing hubcaps on three tires, half full tires, no front license plates and a broken back passenger window. In short, it was a shit car. He made a note to work on it later. He got in and turned the key. It wouldn't start.
"Come on you piece of shit." He said to it. After about 3 tries, it finally started. He made way to the church. While driving, he noticed a cop car following him. He wasn't speeding nor was he violating any traffic laws, so why was this cop following him? Maybe it was because his car was piece of shit? He wasn't sure. In any case, he had his gun ready. Instead of pulling him over, the cop car just drove away. Now normally, he would've let it go, but he couldn't get rid of the feeling that something just wasn't right. Pushing it to the back of his mind, he continued his drive to the church. Once he arrived, he was informed by a random Saint that Johnny was in a room waiting for him. Walking to that room, he saw Johnny with his feet up and Dex standing near by.
"Take a seat man." Johnny said. Kevin picked up a chair and sat it backwards, sitting in it that way. The two men slapped hands along with Kevin, exchanging a nod to Dex.
"OK, I admit when I first saw you, I thought you didn't look like much. But then I thought, 'Hey I don't look like I got an eight inch cock, so I guess we're both full of surprises.'" Kevin gave a confused look to that.
"The Vice Kings are named after one guy; Benjamin King. That shit don't happen unless you're a professional, or a bad ass, and in King's case, he's both." Johnny was cut off by his cell phone ringing.
"Hold up, I gotta take this." He said.
"Aisha, what a pleasant fucking surprise. Whoa slow down. Okay, that's not slower that's louder. Shit, where's she headed? Don't worry I got this." He said. Kevin couldn't fully make out what she was saying, but by Johnny's actions, it was important.
"Whats up?" Dex asked Johnny as he walked closer.
"Some motherfuckers grabbed Aisha's sister right off the street." Johnny told him.
"Shit man, that's the sixth girl this month. We know who's doing this?" Dex asked.
"Yeah, the Vice Kings." Johnny said as he got up.
"No way man, kidnapping ain't King's style." Dex said.
"Maybe that slut Tanya is going behind King's back, don't know, don't fuckin' care. Aisha said they were driving a yellow Sedan. Tail those bitches to wherever they go and get those girls back." Johnny told Kevin. With a nod, Kevin was off. Jogging to his car, he started it up and waited. About five minutes later, he saw the yellow Sedan. Letting it go ahead some, he kept a safe distance, and followed. After ten minutes of following the car, it finally stopped at some building. Pulling up, he watched as someone with a bandanna covering his face held the gun to Aisha's sisters head, cursing at her to get a move on. He checked his gun, and started running to a door. He kicked the door open and saw one of the King's standing by. The guy started to point the gun, but Kevin shot him in the head before he could get a good aim in. Running to some cover, he poked his head up and saw some more running out. He pointed his gun and started shooting. He caught one of them in the chest, and another with a head shot. He shot another in the leg. Quickly rolling over the crate he was hiding behind, he ran up, shot the guy that he shot in the leg and made his way to another room. Hiding behind a wall, he made sure everything was clear. Once he knew everything was, he ran up to a door. He jiggled the door knob, but it was locked. He heard a voice speak up.
"The guy with the key went to Tee'N'Ay!" He heard a voice shout. It had to be Aisha's sister.
"Fuck." He said silently. He started running outside. Tee'N'Ay was only a short drive away. After a about a minute or two of driving, he finally made it to the club. Kicking that door open, he ran in. While he was running he heard someone shout.
"THIS IS AS FAR AS YOU GET BITCH!" The guy shouted. His attention taken for a sec, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Grabbing at the pain, he felt something wet and warm running through his fingers. He looked at his shoulder, he had been shot. He tried to block it out and move forward. His blood pumping, the pain was soon gone. He shot the fucker in the head and moved on. Finding some cover, he shot more Vice Kings until he spotted the guy he was looking for. He was shooting at Kevin. Kevin ducked down and then checked his gun. Seeing he was out of ammo, he panicked. Looking around, he saw a dead Vice King still holding a gun. Quickly, he got down on his stomach and crawled army style to the gun. Grabbing it, he quickly crawled back to his hiding spot and checked it. It was loaded. He peeked up and saw the guy was loading his gun, he took this chance and shot the guy in the throat. Blood spewing everywhere, the guy fell down. He was dead. Making sure the coast was clear, he ran up to his body and grabbed the key. Running back outside to his car, he sat down and checked on his shoulder. No doubt his blood pumping and his heart beating like it was, wasn't helping it at all. He convinced himself that everything was alright for now and tried to calm down. Taking off his black button up, he tore a piece of it off, and made sure it was big enough. Once he saw it was, he quickly tied it around the wound. Once he was done with that, he made his way back to the warehouse. Running to the door, he quietly opened it and did some inspecting, making sure it was clear. Once he saw it was, he ran inside and to the room where Aisha's sister would be. He unlocked it and saw there was more than just her. They looked worried.
"Don't worry, I'm here to save you." He told them. He saw them calm down a little.
"Follow me." He told them. Once they started running out, he saw a yellow car come speeding to the warehouse.
"SHIT, GIRLS GET DOWN!" He told them. They listened and he ducked behind cover. He saw them run in and start looking around. He jumped up and started shooting at them. Killing them all, he motioned for the girls to follow him again. They all ran to his car and got in. Starting it up, they drove away. Everything seemed fine until he looked into the rear view mirror and saw a yellow car speeding up behind them.
"Fuck." He said aloud. He looked at Aisha's sister.
"Take the wheel." He told her.
"Why?" She asked.
"Just do it!" He once again told her. Listening to him, she grabbed it and started steering. Not removing his foot from the gas pedal, he adjusted his body out the window and took aim. He saw bullets come speeding past him, and one narrowly avoiding his ear. He aimed for the passenger first. Once he got a good enough aim, he took a shot. He watched as the passengers head started spewing blood. The drivers attention was now on his dead friend. He aimed at the driver next and took a shot. The driver was shot in the shoulder ironically, the same shoulder as Kevin. Kevin watched in joy as the driver lost control of the wheel and hit a semi-truck head on. He took the wheel back, and drove back to the church. Once they finally reached the parking lot, he was able to really relax.
"Oh god, thank you so much." Aisha's sister told him.
"Don't mention it." He said with a smile. She smiled back, hugged him and actually kissed him on his cheek. Shooting him one last smile, she ran into the church along with the other girls. Julius came walking out and greeted him.
"Hey Playa, don't worry about them, they'll be taken care of. Thanks for getting them."
"Its no problem Julius." Julius looked over and saw his arm wrapped up.
"Damn Playa, you need to get that taken care of. Come inside, we'll get ya stitched up." He followed Julius into the church.
"Anytime you get shot or stabbed or whatever, don't go to the hospital unless its absolutely necessary. Going there can bring unwanted attention, and right now, unwanted attention is something we don't need. Someone here should be able to fix ya up." Julius informed him.
"So everyone here has gone through at least four years of medical school?" He asked him in a joking tone.
"Don't be a smart ass Playa. I'm just saying unless you lose a limb or something, don't go to the hospital." They reached the room they were heading to and Kevin saw a couple of Saints sitting down reading a magazine and playing on a handheld video game device.
"These are the guys that'll be working on me?" Kevin asked Julius.
"Don't worry, they're good help. They'll fix ya right up. Plus, they can give you that good hospital perc." Julius said with a wink. With that, Julius walked off. Kevin sat down and one of them got a metal box with medical supplies in it. While they was working on his shoulder, he felt a vibration go off in his pocket. It was text. From Lin.
"Hey, meet me at the arena parking lot. We gotta start making a move against The Rollerz." He smiled at the text. He really wanted to spend some time with her. The guys were almost done stitching up his shoulder. He looked down at a little metal bowl that held the blood covered bullet. He had never been shot before, which was surprising considering where he currently lived and how he grew up. His mom worked three jobs while his dad wasn't able to work. Now his dad wasn't a deadbeat, he was just disabled and unable to work. His mom didn't really have the best of educations and that rendered her unable to get high paying jobs which sadly, left her to work at three places. Freckle Bitches, Tee'N'Ay and a massage parlor. Most of their money went out on medical bills racked up by his dad, while the other little bit went out on other bills for the house. That left them stuck living in a ghetto neighborhood. Kevin was no stranger to violence and death. He saw it almost daily, but was never shot until now. Memories of his parents were flashing in his head. That was until it was interrupted by one of the would be doctors.
"Hey you hear me? We're done." One of them said. Kevin looked at his shoulder. He had to give them credit, they did a damn good job on it.
"Here, take these so your shoulder won't be killing you." One of the guys said, holding some blue pills in his hands.
"As much as I would love to take those, I need to have a clear head. Got some stuff to do with Lin. But I'll take them a little later." He told them. Getting up, he walked out to his car and drove to the arena to meet Lin. He was hoping he still looked good. Pulling into it, he saw Lin. He smiled and parked his car. All but sprinting to her, he made his way to her.
"Hey." He said with a smile.
"Hey, no time to talk quick hide behind this trailer." She said motioning to the detached trailer from a semi-truck. Doing as she said, he hid behind it and watched as she greeted some Rollerz.
"That's a sweet ride Lin!" One of them exclaimed.
"Uh huh." She replied as she took a hit from her cigarette.
"Who tuned it for ya?" His friend asked.
"No one, I did it myself." She said as she opened the door.
"The spoiler looks like Donnie's work." The one in the hat said.
"No way, that underglow screams Ricky Liu." The bald one said.
"Yeah, I guess it does." His friend replied.
"What is this, fuckin' third grade?" Lin asked them in an annoyed tone.
"Whaddya mean?" The bald one asked.
"Forget it, I'll see ya tomorrow." She said in the same annoyed tone.
"Dude, she totally wants you!" The one in the hat exclaimed. Walking from behind the trailer, he could only shake his head.
"Assholes." She muttered to herself.
"Great friends Lin." He said in a sarcastic tone.
"Shut up." She replied with a smile.
"I swear to god, we're not gonna be able to kill these bastards fast enough." She said with a serious look.
"Aside from macho bullshit, I haven't heard much." She said while taking a hit from her cigarette.
"The only interesting news I got is that a shipment of high performance cars is coming in today. Its not much, I know, so we're gonna make the best of it. Jack the truck carrying the cars before it makes its delivery and take it to Samson. He'll load up the cars with a few surprises, then finish the delivery. Now get out of here before someone see's us." She told him. He nodded and ran to his car. As he was trying to start it up, Lin drove past in her Voxel.
"Oh yeah, your car sucks!" She yelled out as she drove past in in a fit of laughter. He watched as she sped down the road with the biggest grin on his face.
"God she's amazing." He said to himself. With that, the piece of shit car finally started up and he drove off. After only five minutes, he saw the truck but it had an escort. Nothing that he couldn't handle, the escort looked easy enough. He got a good enough speed and made it next to the car escorting the truck. The driver wasn't paying attention. Kevin kept his foot on the gas pedal and his knee on the steering wheel. He rolled down his window and took aim. The driver looked at him, but that was all he could do. Kevin took the shot and watched as the bullet went directly into his head. The car went out of control and over a barrier on the highway. Kevin then focused on the truck. The man driving the truck saw what happened. He tried speeding away, but even Kevin's shitty car was faster than the truck. Kevin was directly next to the truck now. He aimed his gun out of the passenger window. He shot the gun and watched as it broke the window. The truck came to a screeching halt, as did Kevin. Kevin got out of his car and ran to the man.
"Give me the keys to the truck!" Kevin demanded.
"Please, the Rollerz will kill me if I do." The man pleaded.
"If you don't give me the keys, they're not gonna have the chance to kill you." Kevin told him with a look that sent shivers down the mans spine. With not much option, the man handed over the keys. Kevin ran to the truck and climbed inside. Before he drove off, he pulled his cellphone out of his pocket and called Troy. After about three rings, Troy answered.
"Wassup Playa?" Troy asked.
"Troy, I'm doing something for Lin. I need you to get to the highway and get my car back to the Saints hideout." Kevin told him in a rushing tone.
"Got it, rusty brown Hollywood right?" Troy asked.
"Right, its so shitty you can't miss it." Kevin told him. He hung up the phone and started driving. Everything was going good for about 5 minutes, until some more of The Rollerz came up on him. He banged his hand on the steering wheel of the truck. He didn't know what to do. He was high up and they were below him. Then he remembered, he was in a semi-truck. He had to be careful because he didn't want to damage the cars that was being carried. He let one carload of them get up close to the truck part of it. Once it did, he steered the truck into the car. The impact of the hit made the car spin out of control and flip over a barrier into the river. One down, one to go. Same method he waited for the car to get closer. But this carload must've learned from their friends mistakes because they wasn't getting closer. Doing some quick thinking, Kevin had another good idea. He slammed down on the gas pedal, getting the truck to go as fast as it can. He looked at the mirrors on the drivers side, and watched as the car came closer. Just as he wanted. Once they got close enough for him, he slammed on the brakes and watched as they went ahead. They slammed their brakes, and spun the car around. Kevin cracked a smile knowing he had them. He watched as they started speeding towards him. Once they did, Kevin went speeding towards them. The last he saw of them was the frightened looks on their faces, as his semi made contact with their car. Once they were done for, he slowed down and drove a nice slow speed. His heart was pumping, he couldn't believe this was his life now. Never did he imagine in his wildest dreams would he be doing something like this. It was almost like an action movie or a video game. (Hehe.) As he was driving, Troy called him.
"Hey Kev, I got your car back at the hideout. If I were you, I'd buy an air freshener. There's something in that car that is just awful. Also the cops are out thick on the highway right now, so watch your back." Troy informed him.
"Got it, thanks Troy." Kevin said. He hung up the phone and finally made it to Samson's.
"Hey, you Kevin?" Samson asked. Kevin nodded.
"Cool, don't worry I'll get these cars fixed up. I'll let Lin know when its done. Then I'm sure she'll let you know." Samson told him. Kevin only nodded again and walked out. His phone vibrated, letting him know he had a message. He took his phone out and smiled seeing it was from Lin.
"Hey, meet me at the club." It said.
"On my way." He replied. The Saint's hideout was only a short walk away. So he decided to walk there. The weather was nice today. The sun was shining, but it wasn't to hot. The wind was blowing but it wasn't to windy. Overall, it was nice weather. Halfway there, Kevin heard sirens blaring. He quickly turned around and saw two cop cars coming for him. He started running. He looked back and saw they were getting closer. One of the cops on the passenger side hung his body out the window and started shooting. Kevin dodged each shot and pulled his own gun out. He aimed but quickly asked himself if he should do this. Killing some gang member was one thing, but shooting a cop?
"Fuck it." He said to himself. He shot back at the cop. When he did, he saw the cop drop his gun and get back inside. He took this brief distraction and used it. He ran down an ally way and hid behind a brick wall. He quickly peeked from behind it and saw the cop cars stop and backup. He figured they were gonna try to turn into the ally. He looked around and saw an open window to some building. He quickly ran to it, and jumped through the open window and ducked down. Something was on his side today, because right where he was ducking there was an open space where a brick used to be. He got down on his stomach and peeked out the open space. He watched the cars come speeding by and into the road. He felt relief wash over him, but he didn't get up just yet. After about ten minutes, he stood up and climbed out the window. He didn't wanna waste time, so he ran back to the hideout. Once he got there, he was greeted by Johnny.
"Jesus, why'd you run in here." Johnny asked him.
"Cops... after... me." Kevin answered in between breaths. He grabbed the beer Johnny was drinking and chugged it.
"Hey asshole!" Johnny yelled.
"Sorry, just needed something." He said.
"Now, as much as I would love to get you a new beer, I gotta meet Lin at the club." Kevin said as he turned out the church doors.
"Hold up." Johnny said. Kevin turned back and looked at him.
"You can't go out like that." Johnny said.
"Why?" Kevin asked. Johnny looked at him dumbfounded.
"Are you serious man? Look at ya. You're covered in dirt and blood that I'm not even sure is yours. You're missing a sleeve on your button up, and you have no undershirt on. Also, cops have seen you in these clothes already, they'll know its you, they patrol around the clubs on the weekends. Its like you're just begging them to arrest you." Johnny told him.
"Here's the key to my office here at the church. Go down to my closet, and pick out something nice, but casual. Also spray some of my body spray on. Lin loves it and she'll be all over you." Johnny said with a wink.
"Wow Johnny, thanks." Kevin said with a smile.
"Ah, don't mention it. I kind of owe you after you saved Eesh's sister." Johnny told him. The two man shared a handshake/hug, and Kevin was on his way. Kevin walked down to Johnny's office and turned the key. Once he was inside, he walked to his closet. Johnny had some nice suits, some of them looked to be very pricey.
"Italian silk. Not bad Johnny." Kevin said aloud.
"Thanks." Johnny said, scaring the complete shit out of Kevin.
"Jesus fuckin' Christ Johnny, you gotta announce yourself man. I could've shot you." Kevin told him as he clutched his chest.
"Calm down. I realized I was stupid to let the new guy into my office without me around. No offence but I just don't trust you that much." Johnny said.
"Understood. Besides, it'd be nice to have someone tell me how I look." Kevin said. He started looking at the clothes hanging up. While doing so, he saw a few dresses and high heels.
"Wow Johnny, you crossdress huh?"
"What? Oh no man, those are 'Eesh's." Johnny said with a red face.
"Oh hey cm'on Johnny, I won't judge you." Kevin said with a teasing smile.
"Shut up." Johnny said with a smile as well.
"Hey tell me, do you play that Goodbye Horses song and tuck your sack between your legs, with a scarf around your neck and a woman's wig on your head, while looking in a mirror saying, 'Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me, I'd fuck me so hard.' Like in that movie Silence of the lambs?" Kevin asked with a bigger smile. They both busted out laughing at that.
"Fuck no man!" Johnny said. They continued laughing for another thirty seconds before Kevin decided it was time to get ready. He decided on a black beanie, another black button up, with a white tank top, black jeans, and a black belt. As well as a pair of black sneakers with white laces. He checked himself out in the mirror. He looked good. Adding the finishing touches with the body spray, he was ready.
"Not bad man. You look good." Johnny said inspecting him.
"Hey Johnny, I've been meaning to ask ya, are you and Lin related?" Kevin asked.
"Oh what, you assume just because we're both Asian, we're related." Johnny asked with an angry look.
"You fucking racist huh?" Johnny asked him.
"What? No no, I mean I dunno I just." Kevin was stumbling on his words. Johnny couldn't help but bust out laughing.
"Relax dude, I'm just fucking with you." Johnny said while placing a hand on Kevin's shoulder.
"You're not the first to ask that, trust me. I can see why you'd think that, with me and her being the only two Asian's in the gang. We're not related but, our parents were close friends. Our dads worked together. And our moms would watch us, they'd play cards in the house, while me and Lin would play outside. So in a way, we are brother and sister, just not by blood." Johnny told him.
"What'd your guys dads do?" Kevin asked.
"Uh, they're both former cops turned lawyers." Johnny said rubbing the back of his neck. Kevin was stunned. How ironic was this. Lin and Johnny's fathers both former cops.
"That's uh, pretty ironic." Kevin said.
"Yeah, it gets kind of awkward at family get together's." Johnny told him.
"OK, I gotta ask this, have you or Lin, ever been arrested by either of your guys dads?" Kevin asked. Johnny sighed and looked at him.
"Yes." Johnny said with a red face.
"Do they know about The Saints?" Kevin asked.
"No, they actually don't patrol here, but they do in the next state over." Johnny told him.
"Steeleport?" Kevin asked.
"Yep." Johnny told him. The reason Kevin asked this is because of the cops earlier, sure he may have been behind the shootings and carjacking on the highway, but they didn't see him, or even his car for that matter. So how did they know to go after him? There wasn't to many people on the highway, the few that was there actually going the other direction. Did they see his face?
"No, they couldn't have." Kevin thought. This was confusing, then again, word travels on the streets, and The Saints were certainly making a name for themselves. Maybe a rat caught word of them and told the police. Who knows? Kevin pushed all of the confusing thoughts to the back of his mind, and moved on.
"Thanks for the clothes Johnny." He said.
"Not a problem." Johnny said as he walked out of his office. Kevin was about to go to his Hollywood, but he remembered that the cops could've saw his car, then again, even if they didn't, that car is an attention getter for all the wrong reasons. He needed something else. He did some looking around in the parking lots. While doing so, he found a black Zircon. It looked nice and it looked like it wouldn't bring unwanted attention. He settled on it. He picked the lock on it and waited for a car alarm to go off. Thankfully, it didn't. He got in and before hotwiring it, he looked at himself one more time. His blue eyes shining in the mirror, and his stubbly beard growing in, he looked very nice. He hotwired the car, and listened as it started up. Pushing down on the gas pedal, he was off. It was around 7:30 PM the sun was pretty much gone, and the sky was getting darker and darker.
"What a fucking day." Kevin thought to himself. He pulled up to the club and heard the blasting music on the outside of the building. He looked to his right and saw a whole line of people waiting to get in. He walked up to the door and saw two bouncers throwing some guy out as a woman walked closely behind.
"Fuck! cm'on man you didn't have to throw me on the damn ground!" The guy shouted.
"You know the rules Pierce, you need to pay for the drinks, not just assume you can get them free just because you got some skank hooker on your arms." One of the bouncers said in a thick Russian accent.
"Don't call my girlfriend a skank!" The guy now known as Pierce shouted as he got up in the bouncers face.
"Oh yeah, what are you going to do?" The bouncer said, giving him a menacing look.
"Shit, you ain't worth it. Cm'on baby, lets get out of here." Pierce said to her.
"Sorry sweetie you want me for another hour, you gotta pay first." Everyone including Kevin laughed at the poor guy.
"Fuck this." He said as he got up.
"That guy would never cut it in The Saints." Kevin thought. One of the bouncers went back to managing the line. He put his arm in front of Kevin before he could get in. The bouncer looked over Kevin. He nodded and allowed Kevin inside. Kevin shot him a smile and walked in. Once he was in, he saw Lin. She was wearing a short black tank top, blue jeans and a pair of heels that looked like a pair that a woman would wear to a club. She walked over to him, and took his hand into hers. He smiled at this.
"Good call not wearing purple. We don't need to look conspicuous." She said. She led him to the dance floor and put her hands around his neck and started dancing with him.
"You did good, but I'm not done with you yet. Those cars you stole have been rigged to blow once the engine reaches a high enough temperature." She got up close to him and spoke in a low seductive tone.
"I need you to make sure they cars get nice and hot." His pants started to grow tighter instantly.
"There's a race going down tomorrow night in Chinatown, and I think you should give them some tough competition. I know these guys, if you're in the lead for the final stretch, they're gonna hit the nitrous to blow past you. When they do, boom." She said to him.
"As soon as those cars are wrecked, get the hell out of there. You're no good to me dead." She told him with a smile, which he shot right back at her.
"So, where's that drink you said we'd get?" She asked with a smile.
"What're you having?" He asked.
"Jack and cola." She said.
"On it." He said with a smile. He walked up to the bar and was greeted a by a friendly bartender.
"What can I get ya?" The guy asked him.
"Two Jack and Cola's." He said.
"On it." The bartender said. Kevin looked on as the man made the drinks. While doing so he felt someone hop on his back.
"HEY BRO!" An all too familiar and annoying voice said. It was Anthony.
"Why didn't you tell us you were going to the bar tonight? Jake and I would've loved to have gone with you!" Anthony said.
"Because of shit like this Anthony. You do this stupid shit all the time and cockblock me. You're lucky I got a date tonight. Anyways where's Jake?"
"Over here." The Hispanic voice said. The two men shared a handshake/hug.
"Did I hear this right? Our boy has a date tonight?" Jake asked.
"I knew those clothes was for a girl. Looking all nice." Jake said with a smile.
"Where is she? I'd like to meet her." Anthony said.
"Jake over here a sec?" Kevin said. Jake and Kevin walked away from Anthony, while Anthony hit on some drunken woman.
"Look you know I don't mind you meeting her. But Anthony, Anthony's a different story." Kevin said.
"I'll make sure he's a good boy. I promise." Jake said with a smile. With that they gathered up Anthony, whom had just been slapped across the face by the woman he was hitting on.
"Hey guys, hold up real quick. I gotta tell Lin something." Kevin told them.
"What is it?" Anthony asked.
"I gotta warn her of a certain 5'8 idiot hopping on people's backs." Kevin said. He walked over to Lin and handed her the drink.
"Took you long enough." Lin said with a smile.
"Sorry, ran into my roommates, and they wanted to meet you. If that's okay with you?" He asked.
"Sure its fine." She said with a smile.
"One more thing, let's not tell them we're members of a gang huh?" He said with a smile.
"Don't worry, we'll think of something." She said. They walked over to Kevin's roommates. Jake thought she was pretty. Anthony, well Anthony fell in love with her.
"Guys, this is Lin. Lin, these are my roommates, Jake and Anthony."
"Its a pleasure miss." Jake said with a polite smile, as he shook her hand.
"Well now, you don't see beautiful women like you hanging around in a club like this." Anthony said as he shook her hand.
"Ah, thank you so much. Its nice to meet you both." Lin said. She meant it with Jake. But with Anthony, well he annoyed her, as he does with most.
"So, how'd you meet our boy sweetheart?" Anthony asked, with his sexiest smile, that actually didn't seem sexy to Lin.
"Uh, I met him at a bookstore." Lin said. Kevin looked at her. She looked at him with a look that said "it was the only thing I could think of."
"Huh, Kev's always been the reading type, guess it shouldn't surprise us that he met a woman there." Anthony said.
"Yeah well, bookstores are great hookups." Kevin said.
"Hm, guess I should try a bookstore." Anthony said while rubbing his chin.
"Anthony amigo, Boytoy porno mags don't count as actual books." Jake said with a smile. Anthony's face turned red.
"Why must you embarrass me in company?" Anthony asked Jake.
"Anthony, you do a good enough job embarrassing yourself. You don't need our help doing that." Kevin said as everyone but Anthony busted out into laughter.
"Whatever." Anthony said.
"Oh, relax Anthony, it all comes from a good place." Jake said.
"Now cm'on, lets leave Kevin to his date." Jake said.
"It was nice meeting you Lin." Jake said.
"Thanks. You too." Lin said. With that, Kevin and Lin were alone.
"Wow, Anthony sure is interesting." Lin said.
"More like a pain in the ass." Kevin said.
"That too." Lin said.
"So tell me, how'd you get involved with The Saints?" Kevin asked.
"Because of Johnny. One day after I had just finished kicking some ass in a race, Johnny had found me. At the time, I hadn't seen him in almost a year. He lived in Steeleport, and I lived here. You see, we grew up together. You can imagine I was happy to see him. Anyways, Johnny had told me about some guy he met. Which turned out to be Julius. He said he had some big plans to take out the gangs of Stilwater. At first I wasn't on board but Johnny being Johnny, convinced me." Lin told him.
"So Julius was Steeleport?" Kevin asked.
"I guess, I mean that's the only way I could Johnny meeting him first." Lin said.
"But enough about work." Lin said with a smile.
"Lets dance." She said. Taking a big swig of his drink, he followed her. At first, they were just dancing normally. Then as Lin got in close again, she smelt that amazing body spray that Johnny had recommended.
"Mm, you smell amazing." She said with a smile.
"Thank you." He said with a smile as well. She got closer to him, wrapping her hands around his neck again. Both of them dancing in perfect rhythm to both the music and each other. His forehead went to hers and they both smiled at each other. They didn't break apart, song after song played and they didn't leave each other. In the distance of the club, Jake saw this. He smiled and had a good idea. He knew the Deejay there, so he walked up to him.
"Hey Ryan, play a slow song." Jake said as he handed Ryan a $20 bill. Ryan happily obliged and got on his mic.
"Alright, this next one is for all the couples here." Then the slow song started playing. Kevin looked into the distance and saw Jake standing there with his arms folded with a smile. Lin had her arms still wrapped around Kevin's neck and had her head turned and resting on his chest. Kevin smiled and waved to Jake, who waved back. Anthony was even dancing with someone. All and all, it was a damn good night. Kevin and Lin stayed at the club till it was closing time. They had no idea that it was closing time until the Russian bouncer came to remind them.
"Hey guys, hate to break up your moment here, but we're shutting down for the night. Sorry." The friendly bouncer said.
"Its fine, uh Oleg." Kevin said glancing at his nametag. They started walking out of the club. While walking, Kevin felt Lin's hand grab his. He turned and looked down at her.
"What? Dates hold hands you know?" Lin said with a smile. They were out in the parking lot now.
"Where's your car?" Kevin asked her.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I took a cab here. I didn't want any of the Rollerz seeing my car and possibly following me." Lin said.
"You need a ride?" Kevin asked.
"Oh no, its fine I'll walk." Lin said.
"Bullshit. Cm'on, I'll drive you home." Kevin said leading her to his new car.
"Wow, so finally got rid of that brown piece of shit Hollywood?" Lin asked eyeing the car.
"Well, sorta. I kind of did what you did, except in place of gang members, I had drove something else to avoid cops." Kevin said. With that, he unlocked the car and opened the passenger door for Lin.
"Oh, aren't you a gentlemen?" Lin said with a smile. Kevin smiled and got in the driver side. Lin gave him the directions to her apartment. For the most part, the ride was in silence. They finally reached her apartment, and sat there.
"Thanks for a fun night Kevin." She said with a smile.
"Thanks for letting me show you a fun night." Kevin said with the same smile. Kevin got out of the car and opened the door for Lin. She smiled and they held hands as they went to the doors to the apartment lobby.
"Um." Kevin said.
"What?" Lin asked.
"Well its just you know, we're on a date and we had fun and-" Lin smiled and moved forward bringing her lips to his. Their lips broke apart with a soft click.
"Did you mean that?" Lin asked.
"Yeah, exactly that." Kevin said with a big smile.
"Hm, I'm a good guesser then." Lin said with a smile. Kevin opened the lobby door for her and she walked in.
"Goodnight Lin." He said with a smile.
"Goodnight Kevin." She said with a smile as well. With that, she went to an elevator and punched in the number to her floor. Right before the doors closed she smiled and waved. Kevin did the same. He got into his car and drove away. In the distance a cop car was hiding in the shadows.
"Black 4-door Zircon. License plate is 4AQ-J668." A nameless cop said.
"Copy that." Dispatch said. Kevin's smile hadn't left his face. A chaotic day ends with a perfect night. Finally arriving home, he parked and went inside. Unlocking his apartment door, it was dark inside and he could hear snoring and faint moans from Anthony's room. He walked straight to his room and stripped down to his boxers and laid down. Still smiling the entire time, he fell into his slumber.
Hey guys! First off I apologize for the long wait, certain things in my personal life sadly had me down and not in the mood to write. I'm very sorry, but I'm back in a good mood and ready to write more! As I type this it is currently 4:21 AM. Insomnia at its best! But anyways, so as usual couple of things here. 1. I hope you guys like the introductions of future Saints Row characters (Shaundi in the first, and Pierce and Oleg in this chapter) If you guys want me to keep doing that feel free to tell me and I'll do it! 2. For those of you who might wonder what "Hospital Perc" is it is actually percocet a pill that a hospital will give after surgery and a prescription of if you choose. I know most of you may have already known that, but just to be safe I felt I'd explain it. 3. I do not own Silence of the lambs. 4.I hope you guys like the backstories I have Johnny and Lin. I felt I should say that I was inspired to do that by Boss/Lin fanfic that was an amazing story that sadly the creator deleted along with his other stories, but it was called "Any other comments?" In the story it was talked about how Lin and Johnny knew each other as children. So, that inspired my backstory with a few changes to it. If IkilledKennyyes! Happens to see this, thanks for inspiring me and I hope maybe one day you'll come back. Lastly, as I did it a lot in this chapter I may confuse Jake and Anthony. As you guys know, Jake is the Hispanic roommate and Anthony is the douchebag roommate. In the early stages of this story, Anthony was gonna be the name of the Hispanic roommate and Jake was gonna be the douchebag roommate. But I switched the roles for some reason. But yes, I may confuse them sometime and if I do so and I don't catch it, please remind me and I'll go back and fix it! Side note, if you go to my profile, you'll see my future plans for stories, mostly they're Saints Row, but there's a couple of others there that may interest you. And as it says in my profile if you have a story that you'd like me to do, then let me know! Well as always, Rate, review and stay tuned for the next chapters of my stories. Thank you!
