“So, you know where the lawn mower is then, right?” Lexi asked Dan to break the awkward silence that had swept over them all. Gabe stood next to her in the large backyard shed and, from all of the tension in his body, she could tell that he was pissed about Dan coming over.

“Yeah, I mow the lawn all the time,” Dan said, scowling at Gabe.

“Okay, then. Just let me know when you’re done and I’ll see if I can dig up some cash. How much does Violet normally pay you?”

“Fifty.”

Nodding, Lexi grabbed Gabe’s hand and headed back towards the house. Slamming the front door, she leaned against it and pulled him towards her, kissing his lips.

Gabe pushed her away.

“What’s wrong?” Lexi asked, confused.

“Nothing’s wrong. Dan just really killed the mood, that’s all. Let’s look for some money so that he doesn’t have to be here waiting longer than he needs to be.”

Too exhausted to argue, Lexi headed for Violet and Tommy’s bedroom. Taking note of the queen sized bed that was covered by a floral comforter, she glanced around the room. Hmm, she wondered, where would Violet keep money?

Lexi spotted a wooden box in the corner of the room. Opening it, she found a thick wad of cash. Flipping through them, she realized that they were all fifty dollar bills. Judging from the size of the stack, she estimated that she had to be holding at least five or six thousand dollars in her hand.

Lexi grabbed a fifty dollar bill and started back to the door when her uncle’s dresser and the laptop that was resting on it caught her eye. It was identical to Austin’s laptop. Flipping it open, she looked inside and sure enough, the words “Bloody Mary” were written in permanent marker right next to the mouse pad. This was definitely Austin’s laptop. When had the police returned it? Maybe it had been this morning while she was still sleeping.

Rounding the doorway, she nearly collided with Gabe.

“Did you find any money?” He asked.
