A/N Wow this has been an extra long absence and I'm really sry I'll try and keep up because I know the frustration of a writer who doesn't repost so here it is chapter 4.

Disclaimer - I don't own Step Up or any settings/character that goes along w/ although Rob, Drea and other characters have come from the depths of my own practically empty mind.

Miles POV - In The Morning Before School

"Ay Rob can you give me a ride to school," Miles asked his older brother over the phone.

"Yea man but you gotta do me a favor."

"Damn man I don't have time for this today and plus my girl is probably waiting for at the school."

"I don't give a damn," Rob stated "listen Miles either you do this or you don't get no ride."

"Fine, what the hell you want me to do?"

"This guy owes $1500 you gonna take my enter name of gun here and get my money' imma be by Auntie's house in 15 minutes to get you no arguments."

"Damn I don't think imma even make to school. What's he trying to do, kill me?" Miles thought to himself. He grabbed his bag and stuffed in all his stuff and headed to the kitchen. He swung open the refrigerator and grabbed an apple and the orange juice carton and started to put it up to his mouth…

"Boy, don't you dare," Miles' Aunt Mary (Grandma's sister) came from upstairs with his sister Aundrea trailing closely behind "you better get yoself a glass."

"Sorry I don't have enough time no way," he said as he heard his brother pull into the drive way. He could see Border and Quincy Rob's friends in the car, Quincy in the front. He started toward the door.

"What did I tell you bout hangin round Rob and his friend," Mary asked "I don't wanna have to bury my own nephew."

"I know he's just giving me a ride." He walked up to the shiny Black Escalade and jumped in the backseat.

"Ay grab the enter name of gun here from the back we gonna roll on over there right now," Rob explained to Miles as the drove away from the house.

They drove to a dark, shabby, empty looking house. Miles and Q put up their hoods and stepped out of the car and on to the street. They busted into the house and could immediately smell drugs and urine. Miles followed Q into a back room where they saw a larger guy; he looked up and glanced at Q.

"Ay, where Rob's money at huh?"

"I ain't got it k," The man responded.

"Well that is just too damn bad," he pulled out his enter name of gun here "you know damn well we gave enough time to get that money and you still ain't got, that was your last chance homey." Miles was scared as hell anticipating what was gonna happen next.

"Wai…" It was too late the gun went off and it left his brains splattering across the wall. Miles was both scared shitless and sick to his stomach of what he just witnessed. But he knew that unless he wanted to end up like that guy he had to pull himself to together before Q turned back around.

"Yo Miles go search through that room fo the money," Q commanded as he pointed to a room at the end of a narrow hallway. He walked around the corpse on the ground and into the dark hallway. Once he got into the room it was a mess and he thought he would never find but he emerged in 10 minutes money in hand and he and Q raced out to the car.

"Rob here's yo money," Miles handed his brother the bundle of money. Rob pulled out what looked like two one hundred dollar bills and handed them to Miles.

"Here, buy yo girl something nice," Rob said "and don't mention anything you saw or did today to anyone." The rest of the trip was spent in silence. Once they rolled up to the school Miles knew he was extra late and on top of that he saw Lucy at the top of the stairs waiting for him and he just couldn't take her questions. He stepped onto the curb and hurried up the stairs. He attempted to rush past Lucy but he did not succeed. She grabbed his arm firmly and stopped him in his tracks.

"What the hell Miles," she asked.

"Well for one if you don't let go of my arm I'm going to be late," Miles answered.

"You're already late fool,' she spat out her words like poison "what is with the being late for school and the random muy muy expensive cars."

"Uh… I don't know can we talk about this after school or something," he asked impatiently.

"Fine but don't leave before we get a chance to talk… please."

"Fine, now will you let my arm go," he asked and she simultaneously let his arm fall to side and she kissed him as he tried to run to his locker. How was he supposed to explain all of this to her without having to be killed. He would have to make something up, but for now he just had to focus on school.

After School

"Hey Miles so what's going on?" Lucy walked up to him and asked.

"It's my brother he has been taking me to school cuz my Aunt's sick and sometimes he can be a little slow," he explained truthfully. He pulled her close to him and kissed her on top of her head, and he walked with her to her house with his arm around her.

Ooooooo and the plot thicken R&R and tell me what u think I have several ideas for what should happen next so if u have in suggestions please tell me. I hoped u liked it. I plan to update more often not only for u but maybe it'll get the Step Up writers inspired and the fan fictions will pick up. And also I don't want to be a hypocrite cuz I hate when ppl take forever to update and I don't want 2 be one of those ppl myself. I'm deep.
