Chapter 10
My alarm went off. It was 10 a.m and I groaned. I was very lazy today. But, I knew I had to do a ton of things today. I took a shower and got dressed into a Black button down dress shirt and blue denim jeans, with scruffy boots. I went out of my room and went downstairs. I sat on the couch waiting for all the Saints to get to the penthouse. I played with my pistol until I heard the elevator ding, or open.
"Boss, we're here." I heard Pierce say out-loud.
"Good, okay, Johnny let's go. Everyone do what I said yesterday."
Johnny and I went into the elevator first. We got to the garage and went in my black Hammerhead.
I drove out of the garage and went into the streets of Steelport.
"Boss, how are we going to find one of those soldiers?" Johnny asked.
"I don't know. Just look for one walking on the sidewalk, and shoot him in the leg."
Then, I heard Johnny shoot at one of the soldiers.
"Guess we found one." I heard Johnny say.
I quickly got out of my car and walked to the bleeding soldier, damn Johnny had luck right there, he was shot right in the knee. I picked him up and stuffed him in the trunk of my Hammerhead.
"Our job's done. Let's get back into the penthouse."
I drove all the way back to the penthouse parking into the garage. Johnny and I got out of the car, and I grabbed the guy from the trunk. Once we got into the elevator and got into the penthouse I dropped the soldier on the couch. I slapped him hard.
"Why're exactly here?" I asked, obviously wanting an answer.
"We're here because we're ordered to kill you. Look I'll do anything please let me go!" He was scared as hell. Kinzie wasn't lying there were here to kill us.
"Tell me your I.D code, then I'll think about letting you go."
"It's 190237!"
"Alright thanks." I smirked, and shot the soldier. I got a piece of paper and wrote the code down. I shoved the piece of paper in my pocket.
"Let's dump this body." I walked to the storage room and grabbed a black plastic bag. I walked back to the couch and stuffed the soldier into the bag and went to the elevator. Once the elevator opened I walked outside and just left the body by the door. I heard a car roaring up to me. Thankfully it was Matt, and Asha. Behind them were Kinzie and Shaundi, and Pierce and Ben. Gunshots were being fired everywhere.
"Boss! Let's get inside!" I heard Pierce yell.
"Alright! Follow me!" I screamed.
Everyone ran into the building and into the elevator. Some were out of breath. Once we got to the penthouse Johnny was fighting mobs of soldiers. I grabbed my pistol and started shooting at the soldiers. Eventually, we killed all of them. Of course, the standby Saints cleaned up my mess. Thank god. I'm tired of cleaning dead bodies. Asha, Ben, Matt, Kenzie, Pierce, and Johnny left. I told them we could talk about what they found the next day.
Shaundi didn't want leave. She was teasing me again. I was sitting on the couch with her sitting on the other couch, on her phone. I had no idea what to do so I decided to start a conversation.
"What do you mean "I'll think about it?"." I asked. Bravo, greatest way to start talking.
"I mean I'll think about it." She answered.
"That's not helping."
"I know."
"Ugh.. Why did you reject me, anyways."
"Look what happened with Johnny. I thought he died, and I was a wreck. Now, if we're together I know if you die. I'm going to be a wreck. So it's better if we're not."
I was lost for words. I decided to say something smooth to get myself out of this place.
"I won't die." Fuck, that wasn't right.
"And, how do you know that?"
"I just know. So, can you give me chance?" I asked. I was sincere, I got up and walked to the couch Shaundi was sitting on, and I sat next to her. I looked into her eyes. Hopefully, I didn't look awkward. She still didn't answer. I kissed her. But, it wasn't a quick one. Shaundi didn't break it. In fact, we were continuing. I broke the kiss.
"Hey, maybe we can continue this in the bedroom?" I asked. Shaundi smiled, we started kissing again, I slowly picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. I closed the door, and slowly put her on the bed, we ripped off each others' clothes. We made love all night. Of course until we gave up. I fell asleep, I finally felt happy for the first time in a while.
