Chapter 13

“Just so you know, Amelia and I weren’t very close,” Tinsley said.

“So?” I asked.

“I don’t know how awkward this will be.”

“Sugar, this isn’t about being awkward. It’s about your other friend. She’s in trouble.”

“Right. Sorry. Just… I appreciate you being here.”

I lifted her hand to my lips and kissed. “Don’t worry about it. I’m here. I’m not leaving.”

“There she is.”

The town was rundown. Like some kind of forgotten world.

We were standing at the edge of a parking lot outside my SUV. I could feel the worry and tension pouring from Tinsley. Which made sense. Her life had changed so much and this place was nothing but a memory. A living memory she could step into and remind herself of what was.

The girl walking toward us had one hot pink earbud stuck in her ear. She had the longest hair I ever saw on someone. Pulled up and back, the ponytail down the front of her body, bouncing off her hip. She was in a faded jean jacket with a low cut white shirt under it. Large, gold hoops hung from her ears. She looked tired. And she looked around like she was scared.

I let Tinsley’s hand go so she could run to the girl.

Amelia.

They hugged and both started to cry.

I just stood there, watching it.

Old friendships.

That was a part of life I never knew.

There were never friendships. That kind of stuff was always far gone from me. Other than meeting Barr and Kip and coming up with a common goal of who we wanted to be, friends weren’t needed. Friends were a problem. A burden with nothing but issues.

Kind of like what I was staring at.

“Where is she?” Tinsley asked.

“I’ll tell you everything,” Amelia said.

“Here,” I called out. “Get in. I’ll drive around so we can talk in private.”

It was a hell of sight to be opening the back door of the SUV and having Tinsley and her friend get inside.

Before I shut the door, Amelia looked at me and stuck out her hand.

“Amelia.”

“Pres.”

“You’re the rich guy who stole Ti.”

“That I am,” I said.

I slammed the door and walked around the SUV.

I drove out of the parking lot and cruised the streets slow, listening to the conversation.

“Okay, it was Garcia,” Amelia said. “He got crazy, Ti.”

“What do you mean by that?” she asked.

“He tried to get involved with dealing.”

“Drugs?” I asked.

Amelia looked at me.

“You can trust him,” Tinsley said. “Believe me… we need him.”

“You need me,” I said, winking at Amelia.

“Yes,” she said. “Drugs.”

“Shit,” Tinsley said. “When did that start?”

“A while ago,” Amelia said. “He got in over his head with it. He was making a little money for fun but then it got serious. He must have went into someone else’s territory and it got bad. He got beat up really bad. Was in the hospital.”

“What?” Tinsley asked. She grabbed Amelia’s hand. “What else happened?”

“That was just the start. That world is dark. And the slope is very steep. I lost her, Ti. This is my fault for letting it happen.
