Chapter Nineteen
ASHLYNN'S POV
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing I grab my phone and sigh opening my eyes halfway and instantly regretting it when the sun hits me in the eyes. I hurry and press the little green button to answer the phone and snap my eyes shut against the sun.
"Hello?" I answer.
"Hi sweetie." my eyes snap open at the sound of her voice. I sit up straight and Carlos opens his eyes from next to me and stares up at me with a confused expression.
"I heard you went back to stillwater." she says, its not a question.
"Dad told you." I say struggling to keep my voice steady. Carlos sits up suddenly anger filling his beautiful eyes.
"I'm not coming back." I say my voice empty. I watch as Carlos turns from angry to concerned.
"I'm not going to tell you to" she sighs
"It would be pointless, you would just leave again" she adds
"Good." I say the bitterness filling my voice.
"How is Roland?" she asks
"Do you care?!" I snap I hear her sharp intake of breath and almost regret my words but I shake it off.
"Of course I do." she answers.
"What do you want mom?" I ask I can't seem to control the anger in my voice.
"Will you and Roland come over for dinner?" she asks, this time it is my turn to gasp.
"No way!" I yell into the phone. I hear her start to cry on the other end and I know my fate is sealed.
"I miss my babies" she says through her tears.
"I'll see what I can do mom." I sigh and hang up the phone laying back down and snuggling into Carlos.
"What was that?" he asks.
"My mother." I state He nods and motions for me to continue.
"She wants Roland and I to come over for dinner." I tell him. His mouth drops open
"You agreed?" he asks. I nod in answer
"Can we just stay here all day?" I ask. He nods and kisses my head. I snuggle closer to him.
ROLANDS POV
WHO THE FUCK DOES HE THINK HE IS?! OFFERING ME TWENTY AND THINKING I'L TAKE IT! FUCK HIM! FUCK THE BROTHERHOOD!
I rush through getting dressed and think over my options. I nod to myself, making my choice. NEVER underestimate your opponent, Maero made that mistake.
I grab my car keys and head for my car heading to Donny's garage. I squeal to a stop I see him and quickly get out of my car and walk behind him.
"Lin.. I miss you." He says. Red clouds my vision and the next thing I know put my gun into his back. I want nothing more than to pull this trigger. Lin was my girl! NOT his. The fucking coward stood by and let her die! He turns around slowly.
"You're supposed to be dead!" I laugh humorlessly.
"The last time you saw me your boss shot me and pushed my car into the water, and thats all you have to say to me?" I ask raising the gun to his head.
"Oh shit!" He says. I resist the urge to pull the trigger.
"That's better." I say mockingly as I shove him into the car.
"Where are you taking me?!" he demands.
"You're going to do some pro bono work." I tell him. I explain my demands on the way to the first brotherhood truck. He tries to protest but my gun gives him little room to argue.
We drive around while he rigs the trucks. Each time I stand guard and keep the brotherhood from interrupting us. I drive just out of range and activate the controls to blow up the trucks. I smile in satisfaction as the last tuck explodes.
"Thank." I laugh as I shove him out of the car and head back to the hideout. I decide to take the elevator down. I get in and wait for the doors to close as I press the button for the bottom floor. I lean against the wall, and whimper as the memories pour in.
FLASHBACK
"you know we can't go anywhere where the rollerz can see us." Lin says from the passenger seat raising one eyebrow at me.
"I know." I answer smiling at her as I pull into my driveway. We get out and I take her hand as we go into the house. I turn on the lights.
"No one home?" she asks.
"Mom and Asshole went to a party." I tell her.
"Ashlynn is at a friend's house." I add. I lead her to the kitchen and pull out her chair. She sits down and I pull the food out of the oven.
"You cook?" She asks raising both eyebrows as she takes her first bite.
"Yeah." I answer shrugging it off as no big deal, even though I worked on this all day.
"It's good." she tells me. I nod in thanks, but on the inside I'm grinning like a moron.
"You got sauce on your face." I grin at her leaning forward and kissing her. She returns the kiss, tilting her head and pulling me closer. I brace my elbow on the table getting closer and deepening the kiss.
"Anyone ever tell you that your a great kisser?" she asks trying to regain her breath.
"All the time." I say shaking my head at her. She grins back at me, it is an evil grin. The next thing I know I have sauce on my face as well. She laughs and leans for round two.
END FLASHBACK
I slide down the wall of the elevator and pull my knees close wrapping my arms around myself and rest my head on my knees. I take deep gasping breaths to keep myself from falling apart.
