Maybe when they go to dump me whatever thats suppose to mean I could like go kung fu style on them and break free. Seriously Charlie. Kung fu? I am so dead.
“Dan you get him in the back I’ll see if they’re ready for him.” Whose ready for me? Maybe dump me with new people is what they meant.
“Got it.” I hear two car doors shut so at least probably only battling against one guy. But I think they will probably be the quickest way to die. I am not tied up or anything so maybe they want me to live. The door by me open, I guess I’m in a van. “Great I got to carry this kid. If his father wasn’t so good at what he does i would drag him.” My father? He’s a plumber.
“Dan what’s taken so long?”
“Seriously I just got out of the car!”
“Move it.”
“Oh great not I am all sorts of lazy over this supposed to be wonder kid. He better be as good as they think or I will personally kill me.” Wonder kid? What am I suppose to have this wonderful plumbing skills or something? Dad I knew you had shaddy friends but come on! What is this.
After going up a few stair and Dan complaining the whole way and guys yelling at him we get to this room. I’m expected to be put in a chair or cement floor but now, on a tempo-pedic mattress! Okay maybe I should wake up now. I open my eyes to what seems like a suit from the Ritz Carlton.
“Oh look Cinderella's back.”
“Where am I?”
“We can’t really tell you but let’s say anything you want you will get and someone you know will be here soon to answer all your questions.”
“Well all I want is a beer or something but it’s the middle of the day if I have my wits about me. So I will settle for some chinese food.”
“What kind.”
“Fried rice. Oh man and some sushi. Surprise me with the best sushi, none with ell and nothing too fishy. Something like with a lot of rice. Yeah rice around it would be great.”
“You got it Mr. Brooks.”
“Alright.” So this is what it’s like being taken prisoner? When does they horrible surprise come out? Hopefully I get my food first.

Speaking too Soon

Without a fail. He would be the one to call. Not the mystery boy from jersey I know. But the guy I started seeing when I first moved out to LA. I knew they invented caller ID for a reason.
“How was your birthday?”
“It was good. What do you want?”
“I just wanted to see how your birthday was. I haven’t seen you for a while.”
“And your surprised by that?”
“Well I just thought we could or would be friends you know. It’s weird not hanging out with you everyday and I miss you.
“Well..”
“Well... What?”
“Austin, you know what.”
“I was hoping that you could forgive me and give me a second chance. I know I messed up. People make mistakes. Don’t you think this has been going on long enough.”
Summer walks into the room and mouths asking who it is. I mouth back Austin. Her normal reaction, rolling her eyes, plopping down on the couch throwing her arms in the air.
“Look I have to go.”
“Alright. But could we please meet up for lunch or a drink this week?”
“Maybe. I have to go.” Before Austin could even respond I hung up and just sat back.
“So I thought you guys were done?” Summer adjusts herself to stare right at me now.
“We are. We’ve been done. I didn’t even know it was him I just answered the phone without checking and to my surprise it was him.”
“Well, surprise!” We both crack up and get up to meet the rest of the crew for coffee down the street. Summer stays in her dress from the night before. It isn’t exactly a dress you could pull off for night and day but Summer always dose what Summer wants.
“Hey could I borrow a pair of flats? I think if I try walking in heels i might just fall down.”
“Oh what. Did someone have a rough night last night?”
“Funny. But seriously?”
“Have you not learned yet that you never need to ask.”
“Your too good to me.” Smiling I walk up to Summers walk in closet which still is bigger than my apartment but the girl has amazing taste and a bank account with a never ending supply. I grab her black Chanel shoes, Chanel I have always loved. Collection is always timeless and reminds me of being home.
