29.


After breakfast, Reggie and I left our little house to try and find nick. To know where we can get supplies. But only came across Charlie. "Hey Charlie!" Reggie called out to him, as we approached him. A smile grew on his face.

"Morning Reggie, Deanna. What's up?" Charlie asked.

"Looking for your dad, do you know where he is?" Reggie asked.

"I honestly don't know where he is, maybe go and see Olivia? She's the house with the yellow door." Charlie pointed to the house.

"Thank you." I told him, as Reggie and I left to see Olivia. Also I think she's the woman who keeps track of stock. Walking up to her door, Reggie used Lucille to knock on the door. Seeing the woman, Olivia. Open the door, she was fat and stubby. Even though that's really mean of me to say, it's true. She wore black rimmed glasses, which mashed her black hair. Reggie passed me Lucille, as I stood near her counter. Yeah, we kinda just let ourselves in.

"Where's Nick?" Reggie asked her.

"Uh, I'm..." She seemed a bit scared of Reggie, as then Reggie replied in a sing sing kinda way.

"Don't care. Where's nick?"

"Um, getting a set of supplies for you and your niece." She explained.

"Cool." Reggie smiled. "I'll wait."

"Uh... he went pretty far. They might be back tonight or tomorrow." She explained, she was still a bit uneasy. As her eyes scattered between Reggie and I. Are we really that intimidating? "We're beginning to run low on everything. We're practically starving."

"Starving? You?" Reggie, you dick. "By 'practically' you mean, 'not really'. Also I brought supplies to survive on for a week." Olivia then bursted into tears, facing away from Reggie. Reggie just smiled in amusement, shaking his head. Walking over to me, he said in a loud whisper. "Really?" He walked over to me, as I folded my arms. Raising an eyebrow. "These people seriously don't have a sense of humour. What?"

"Apologise now! Go!" I gritted my teeth, Reggie saw by my facial expression that I was serious. He sighed heavily, rubbing his eyes. I shoved him towards Olivia

"Excuse me." Reggie begun, getting closer to her. "Whats your name again?"

"O-Olivia." She said bluntly, don't blame her.

"Right, Olivia." Reggie started, grabbing her arm gently. She tensed, while she turned around to him. "I am sorry for having been so rude to you just now. Looks like Deanna and I are going to be here for a while, waiting my dear old friend and your fearless leaders return. Also if you'll like, I think it'll be enjoyable to screw your brains out. I mean if you're up to it." Reggie said to her, as I didn't expect what would've came next. Soon Olivia slapped Reggie across the face, making my hand fly to my mouth to prevent me from laughing.

Reggie then whispered something to her, I couldn't hear. When Reggie stood back up straight, I saw several emotions running through Olivia's body. Reggie smiled in amusement. "Alright well, D and I are just going to put our feet up. While waiting for our stuff to get here." Reggie said to her, Reggie begun looking to me. Then his body snapped back towards her way. "Olivia, could you be a lamb and make us some lemonade? Cause I know I bought you guys that good powered stuff."

"I-I'm supposed to-." Reggie then cut her off.

"Make it! Make it, take your time. Make it good, cause I'll be mad if my kid doesn't like it." He told her in his intimidating voice. Well that answers my question. Olivia then took off to another part of the house. Reggie faced me, as I shook my head.

~~~

We were still at Olivia's.I begun cooking lunch, as my eyes widen. Seeing a clean shaven Reggie. "Oh my god." I stated.

"What?" He looked clueless.

"Face. Hair." I explained, as he smiled. Rubbing the clear surface.

"Oh yeah, like it?" He questioned.

" Yes I do, can you cook the spaghetti sauce? Also Charlie is coming over." I asked him, seeing him taking off his jacket. Putting on an apron, seeing him cook. While I started cutting the veggies for the sauce and meat, coming over and putting it into the mixture. As I then begun cleaning up, I see Reggie trying the sauce.

"Hm mmm." He said in a satisfactory kind of way, he then brought over some of it on a wooden spoon to me. "Wanna try some?" Reggie asked raising his eyebrows, smiling. I narrowed my eyebrows. Putting up my hair with a hand, as I then tried some.

"Thats so good." I stated, swear Reggie is the best cook ever.  Reggie then poured the cooked noodles into the meat pot. Mixing them together, seeing Charlie knock on the window. I undone my apron, marching to the door. Opening it, as I smiled. "Come in." I told him, as if it was my own house.

"Ha, thanks. Where's Olivia?" He questioned, as Reggie and I pointed the same way.

"That way." Reggie and I explained.

"Ok, I'll be right back." He stated, as I nodded. He walked off, as I begun organising the table. While Reggie poured spaghetti onto the plates, turning around and seeing Olivia sitting herself down at one end of the table. Laughing to myself, as she's like this cause of Reggie. Charlie grabbed his plate and mine, as his eyes widen and he exhaled sharply. "Ok, I love Olivia. She took care of me after you left and dad was away. But she can be a fucking handful to calm down." I laughed as we all sat down and had lunch, after a while and everyone was finished. It was quiet and awkward.

"I don't know where your dad is Charlie." Reggie begun, as he grabbed Lucille and placed her onto a chair. "But Lucille is hungry."

~~~

Charlie helped Olivia clean up, it was a quick clean as I done most of it earlier. I stood beside Reggie, as he made friends with a guy called spencer. I know that all he wants to do is get in with me. They were playing pool, Spencer was talking about Reggie and myself being here. We were in the middle of the street, the whole town gathered around. "Reggie, I understand what you're doing here." He begun, as Reggie got a ball in the hole. "I get you're trying to get an army. I don't agree with your methods, but I understand why you're doing it. You're making people contribute for the greater good. Makes sense, I would do anything to keep Deanna safe as well." I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him. I followed Reggie to beside spencer, as Reggie was getting ready to sink a ball. "Just want to let you know, that Pello. Is a dangerous guy, he's willing to kill with his hands."

"News flash spencer, we already knew that after the many accounts of me almost getting killed by him." I spat.

"Be nice now Deanna, these people are helping us." Reggie said to me, as I sighed heavily.

"Nick wasn't the original leader here." Spencer begun, as he was about to have his go. Seeing Charlie and Olivia watching from the balcony. "My mum was. She was doing a real good job at it, she passed away. Not long before you and nick arrived. Same with my dad and older brother." Reggie had his liquor in his hand, as I did as well. Reggie had his arms weirdly folded.

"So what? It was all peachy till nick and I arrived 17 years ago and 19 for nick? As soon as we arrive, you're suddenly an abandoned. That is the saddest story I have ever heard. Well luckily he's the boss." Reggie stated.

"No, I don't care. He's ego is to large, he'll mess everything up." Spencer replied, sinking a ball in. Reggie and I took a sip of our scotch, while we stood beside him.

"What are you proposing about that?" Reggie questioned. Spencer got very close to Reggies face.

"I am my mothers son, I can be the leader she was. That's what this place needs and that's what you two need." Spencer explained, while he tapped my uncle on the chest with a finger. I pushed Spencer's chest, so he would get away from my uncle.

"So why should I make you in charge?" Reggie asked with a cheeky smile.

"We'll be better off." Spencer explained, as Reggie finished his drink. He looked to me and I gave him mine. Reggie begun walking in a circle, slow one. As I chucked Charlie the glasses.

"You know I'm thinking spencer, I'm thinking how when Pello threatened my kid and he brought me in with her and with no charge. Gave us a home, he knows what I'm capable of. He knows if one of you do something dodgy I'll kill ya. He is swallowing his worry and getting shit done, oh! Did I mention he's getting food for my kid and I, again? That takes guts." Reggie explained, as I got to sink in one of Reggies balls. "Then there's you." Reggie stated to Spencer, slowly walking to him. While I was behind Reggie. "The guy who waited for nick to be gone, then sneak over to me and try and get me to do his dirty work. While also trying to get in with my kid. So I've gotta ask, if you wanted to take over? Why don't you just kill nick yourself?" Reggie got closer and closer to Spencer. "Why don't you just take over?"

"I-I d-don't." Reggie made the fuck tard fuck boy speechless. Reggie then whispered, but I could hear him. As I stood behind him.

"Do you know what I'm thinking? Cause I can have a guess, I think it's because you have no guts." Reggie then stabbed him in the stomach, everyone around us gasped. I didn't flinch, as I then watch Reggie make Spencer's guts come out of him. Watching Spencer fall to the ground. "Oh look there they are! How embarrassing. They were inside you the whole time, I've never spleen so wrong in my whole life!" He smiled, as he walked over to me and took Lucille. Gesturing for me to follow, I did. I stood beside him, in front of everyone. "Someone better get up here and clean this shit up. Come on, I was winning." I soon grabbed onto Reggies arm, as I saw the woman in front of the whole group. Bring out a gun, my eyes widen seeing a small glance of a tattoo on her wrist. She pulled the trigger, seeing Reggie quickly react. Using Lucille to protect me. "What the shit!" Reggie begun to yell, seeing the bullet stuck in Lucille. "What the shit!" Reggie stomped over to her, hitting her gun out of her hands. Seeing Charlie throw her to the ground, with a knife to her throat. "Shit! You just tried to kill Deanna! You shot Lucille!"

"She got in the way." She replied, as Reggie looked over to me.

He walked over to me, holding my face with one hand. "You ok?" He whispered to me to make sure. I nodded.

"Reggie, check her wrists and the bullet shell." I told him, he picked up the shell. As Charlie checked her wrists, she had a dead rose tattoo.

"What the shit is this? You're one of them! You may be stupid darling, coming in here and just trying to shoot my kid. Alright, Charlie. Use that knife on her, right on her face." Reggie then leant down close to the chick on the ground. "Lucilles beautiful smooth surface will never be the same. So why should yours!" Even though Reggie is talking about a baseball bat, that bat has some history. "Now tell me how you found us."

"Followed ya." She smiled, she's lying. Cleary.

"Well now I think you're lying and lying to me now!? Such a shame, now I'll have to cut up that pretty face. One more try." Reggie told her, seeing the girl hyperventilate.

"Suck my-." Charlie then done the first cut on her face, Reggie chuckled in response.

"Oh! You're such a badass! Fine, have it your way. Alright, Charlie. Kill somebody." Reggie ordered him, as he looked like he was going to stab her. But I was surprised, as he then shot Olivia. The whole town gasped and jumped in shock. I then saw Nick arrive.

"Reggie! We had an agreement!" Nick stomped up to him, as Charlie stood up and hugged me. I hugged him back, as to be honest. My heart was still going fast from almost being shot.

"Hey everybody it's nick! Your people are going to make me lose my voice with all this yelling." Reggie said to him, as I could see nick wanted a straight answer.

"What's going on?" Nick asked.

"We're going to war!"
