And I get to sit in here all because I got herelate.There was no time I had to be here by. If there was, it would have been set by me.
Lincoln sticks his head up between me and Jai, who's driving. He looks over at me and I try my best to ignore the fuck.
He leans closer to me and I clench my jaw.
"Get the fuck away from me," I grumble.
"You smell like Azalea," he leans back and I narrow my eyes.
"Why do you know what she smells like?" Why does he get that close to her?
"I play with her hair all the time, I know what she smells like, you smell like her," he smells me again and I lean away from him.
"No shit I smell like her, we live together," I roll my eyes.
"No," Theo drawls out and I already know that stupid shit is about to come out of his mouth.
"You smell like her because you were all over her before you left! That's why you were late wasn't it?" He questions.
"She's my girlfriend, of course I was all over her dumbass."
How the fuck did he graduate elementary school?
For two hours I sit in the car and listen to the bullshit that constantly comes out of everyone's mouth.
We pull up to the nearly falling apart motel that Sanfred found the woman living at for the moment and walking into the main office, the guys hand me the warrant.
Every other guy thinks everything's a joke so they always let me deal with the warrant shit. They say I have a good 'fuck with me I'll kill you' face.
The older woman that sits at the front desk perks up when we walk in.
"Oh my God, Lincoln there's your mom," Theo gasps and Lincoln punches him in the back. This is exactly why they don'tdeal with showing the warrant. They cannot be taken seriously to save their fucking lives.
"We need the room number of Dawn James," I tell her and she takes a drag from her cigarette before blowing it out slowly.
Theo coughs behind me and pulls his damn inhaler out his jacket pocket taking two puffs of it.
"Okay, right this way," her voice comes out croaky and raspy like she's been smoking for thirty years. She stands and steps down off her stool, cigarette still in hand.
She's supposed to ask if I have a warrant but this works too.
The top of her head reaches the middle of my chest and she looks up at me, taking another draw of her cigarette.
"Handsome young man," she gives me a smile and I fidget away from her. She motions for us to follow her and Lincoln steps up beside me.
"I think Azalea has some competition," he chides.
"Get out of my face," I push him away from me and back into the group of giggling fucks behind me.
We follow the lady until she stops in front of the door to Dawn's room.
Jai knocks on the door and we wait for her to open it. The old woman beside me continuously blows her fucking smoke in my direction.
Jai picks up his knocking pace, hitting the door harder and faster.
"Man quit, it's gonna scare the baby that's in there," Theo pulls him away from the door. He's excited to see the baby.
"Do you have the key to get in?" Jai asks the woman and she takes a ring of keys out her pocket. She sticks a key in the door and opens it.
