·|Two Nights Before|·

After cooking and getting ready for bed, he was sleeping peacefully as I was up figuring out this plan.

I got out my phone, in hopes of finding tips and tickets. First off, where are we going?

I had a couple places in mind, but St. Louis is where we need to go. My grandmother told me she had property there that was passed from her father to my grandma and her sister. My grandmother's sister passed years ago, so it was left to her. She left the house in my name I just couldn't get until I turn eighteen. Well I turn eighteen in two and a half months, but apparently my grandma's sister has a step daughter and she's living their currently to keep it all nice. Why didn't they notify me? I'm actually related to them, she's not.

One thing I didn't mention was that I have a copy of my grandmother's will, just in case whoever that woman is in her house decide to talk out the side of her neck with me.

I thought of nearby bus stations or airports we can go to. I heard of some bus station called Greyhound. Maybe it's nearby and cheap. The only money that's not in Kay's bank account is what she had saved  in the house which is now $250.

I end up looking for tickets on their website that goes to St. Louis. Luckily they had a deal going, so the tickets for both me and Mavey were fifty. Great. Now I have two hundred left and three hundred saved at home...IF my mother didn't find it and use it to get coke or meth. Possibly heroine.

I purchased the tickets and selected to buy them upfront when we get there. The tickets were for the bus that leaves Friday night. What made it even better was that the buses ran all the way up to five o'clock in the morning, so I was lucky enough to have bought the tickets that leave at two o'clock. We'll just have to get up early.

I put my phone down and rolled over soon falling asleep next to Maverick hopefully this plan plays out for the both of us.

My leg shook vigorously as I impatiently waited to see my lawyer. Who just so happened to get me off of my death sentence. I somehow came down to 15 year. How the fuck does that even happen? I want it, but at the same time I want to punch whoever the fuck granted me less time. Like if I had a twin and she did all that shit, you gone give her leeway on her sentence and be pissed and shocked when she start killing niggas again if she ain't smart enough to stop?

Fucking retards and God's angels.

The door opened, pulling me from my thoughts, with Heather smiling hard as fuck when she walked in.

I stood up and practically ran to her almost knocking her on her ass. "Someone's a bit happy?" She chuckled.

I pulled back looking at her like she was crazy, "Nigga the fuck? Some how you managed to get me off a death sentence and have my time reduced to 15 years. I would've thought at the 40 or something getting out when my knees can barely hold up,and you asking me am I a bit happy? Happy enough to purposely accidently kill you and have my ass put back under the needle. " I said.

"Well I told you I was going to repay you. Did you think I was lying?" She asked holding her hand over her heart showing she was hurt.

"Don't push it," I chuckled.

"Mhm whatever, but what about your girl?"

"I don't know. She thinks I'm dead..." I said hanging my head low.

"No possible way. It's been the leading headline of the news today. It's all over the news, in papers, talk shows, radios. Hell someone could make a book off of why they were wrong for repealing your sentence."

I thought about what she said. Maybe she does know that I'm not going to die and she's going to come and see me or send me a letter.

"Yea..yea you right," I agreed, "She coming to see me or something." I scoffed.

"Thank you though Heather. You came through for a nigga and whatever you need I got it for you once I'm out. Matter In fact I still got Ben. If you need anything  call me up and I'll let him take care of it for me."

She smiled, "Thank you," She said, "But no thank you. I'm just doing my job love."

She patted my arm and turned to walk out,"I'll talk to you soon." She smiled at me before closing the door.

I stood there a moment trying to reflect. She really came through for a nigga. Just like she promised me years ago. Who would have that the girl you helped stay out of prostitution, would be your lawyer and get you off a death sentence two years later?

Not something typical, but still.

I prayed that I wouldn't have to leave Macey and Maverick. Although I'll be in for a while and she'll probably be with someone else. She'll know I'm still here for them both.

Macey
·|The Night|·

The sun woke me up by hitting me up by it's bright and hot ass rays. I sat up, stretched, yawned and got out of bed. The people are coming to get the house back today, so me and Mavey are going to leave in a bit.

I got out the bed, going into the bathroom and doing my hygeine. I went back in the room and to my surprise Maverick was up. I thought he'd still be sleeping,well at least for another hour or so.

"Good morning buddy," I smiles as he hugged me tightly. He caught me off guard by wrapping his legs around my waist and doing the same with his arms and his neck.

The room began to fill with laughter. It's the little moments we have together that make us inseparable and I absolutely love them.

Sadly, within an hour we have to leave back to our mother's and I know neither one of is is excited about it.

"We go back home to momma's today?" He asked getting off the bed. I shook my head and he went into the bathroom.

"Brush your teeth and wash your face!" I yelled walking out the room.

I walked down the hall and opened the closet that was at the end of it. I looked for her mini bank that had her savings in it. I got the 250 I needed and stuffed it in my shorts pocket.

Maverick walked out fully dressed. He just had on some joggers, a shirt with his jacket open, and his tennis shoes. He had one good pair of Jordan's thay was a gift from his actual father. The only shit he had ever bought him. Deadbeat ass nigga.

"You're dressed already," I said nodding my head, "Get a couole snacks out the cabinet and put them in a bag. I'm gonna get dressed then we can go, but look Mavey I bought tickets to leave tonight..really in the morning at two a.m. So when we get home I'll tell you what to do. Don't let james or momma get to you ok?"

He nodded his head in response and went on about his business in the kitchen.

I went into the room and went i to Kay's drawer. She always let me wear her shirts. She was a size bigger, but they fit comfortably.

I put a shirt on and found some socks. I put those on and put on my all red roshes. Not the best in style, but they're really my only good pair of shoes.

I looked around more and found a picture of me and Kaylee. A picture I never knew she had. It was when we had our year anniversary. I miss her. I miss her so much. She's gone and I'll never see her again. My love for her will never leave, but it hurts to keep it as well.

I smiled as a drop of water appeared on the picture. Gosh I'm crying.

I wiped my face and took the picture with me. 

Mavey was sitting in the living room with the bag of snacks I told him to get. I went in the kitchen and grabbed us some water. Walking does us good, but it be hot and I don't want to be dehydrated. Especially Maverick cause he's little.

He walked out the door and I followed behind him. I took one last glance around the house reminiscing on all the bullshit and good things tgat happened here. I won't ever see or be in the place again. This was my safehouse... Now it's another pile of wood.

I closed the door. We left before the people could get here. I honestly don't know what they're going to do with all her belongings. As much as J want to take them with me, I'm not trying to keep these depressed feelings about her not being here.

We got to my mom's house. We stood there starring at it. Both of us dreaded coming here, but no more than myself. I hate it here.

I respect my mother, but I'm fed up with her shit. She never attempted to try and save herself from the control of drugs, but she just doesn't give a fuck about herself or us. That's how much love she has for us.

We walked straight into the house. Just as usual she was out on the couch. That must be her new bed, besides the king size on in her room. 

We snuck in and I took him inhis room. "Pack a bag with some clothes and stuff that you need," Although we didn't really have much. It was enough though, I'm not complaining. "Leave it by your bed ok?" He nodded and took off to his room. I went into mine and sat the snacks down.

I grabbed my duffle bag and put in there all of my clothes and the other pair of shoes I had. I packed hygeine materials and things of other sorts that I may need.

After doing so, I put the snacks in there too and left my duffle in the closet. I got my phone out setting my alarm. I prepared everything for when we wake up because we'll have a short amount of time to get our things and all that other stuff and go. I have no time for my mother and her nigga.

I decided to go to sleep early as did Maverick. It was about six o'clock anyway, plus going to sleep early helps me get up early.

I locked my door. Now don't say it's bad cause what if Maverick gets scared or something and he needs to go in your room. I taught Mavey to defend himself.

Don't say shit, but just like me,he has 3 different knives hidden around his room and he knows how to use them well. To some it's a stab-and-go, but us? It's for the kill. Fuck all that.

He keeps his room door locked too. I tell him everynight to do so. I have a key to it, so it doesn't matter. I didn't tell him tonight cause I want to be able to quicjly get out of here amd unlocking his door and shit will make to much noise. Yea, my mother stays on her high and knocked out, but her senses are keen as fuck. How? I don't even know.

I laid down amd just thought about what we are doing. It's illegal, but my mother won't care to notice so I'll be eighteen and we'll start fresh in St. Louis, Missouri.

I turned over and cut off the light. In less than a few hours, I'm changing our lives for the better.
