Marty: How can I help you two?

Annie: We'd like to get these pictures developed.. *holds up the camera*

Marty: *glances between Annie and Johnny, he smirks* Follow me right this way *leads them to the back*

Annie: ~We followed the jolly boy to the back into a room thats when his whole attitude changed~

Marty: You got cash?

Annie: *nods. Pulling out a wad of 50s* it's 2,500

Marty: *counts it, smirks* Camera please.

Johnny: *watches as Annie hands the boy the
camera. Whispers* The hell are you doing?

Annie: *whispers back* Just let me do what I have to do

Marty: So.. Miss LeBlanc *getting his dish ready* Mr. Orlando. *fiddling with the camera* I just want to know one thing. Whats the heart of Mapleton doing with The king of spades? *glances up at the two*

Johnny: The money is hush money now shut up and do the work.

Marty: *chuckles lightly* Oh John.. You both know the spades come in here to develop pictures for your father *looks at Annie. Hangs up the picture to dry*

Johnny: You suck at staying quiet.

Annie: *hands another wad to Marty* What type of pictures?

Marty: *counting* You know trying to blackmail anyone *smiles* Lakeview, Mapleton, Cherry hill.. The list goes on *smiles at Annie*

Johnny: *whispers* You know its dangerous to just have wads of cash on you?

Annie: *Whispers back* You know its dangerous to be in a gang?

Johnny: *rolls his eyes*

Marty: There ya go *hands the closed envelop to Annie* Have a nice time

Annie: Thank you so much. *walks out*

Johnny: So you're really not going to tell me what you're doing?

Annie: You should already know without me needing to tell you.

Johnny: *rolls his eyes, kisses her cheek*

(Mapleton apartments)

Johnny: ~Annie and I went our seperate ways, I was to tired to go back to school and since my grades were the best they had been I decided to just go home and sleep~

Mer: John?! *bardges into his room* John Vincent Orlando! *rips the sheets from him*

Johnny: What?! *sits up frusterated*

Mer: Why the hell did you not tell me that someone was trying to buy the drive in?!

Johnny: *runs his hands through his hair stressed* Because...

Mer: The highest offer is 15 million dollars! $1 million we could get a whole house for that amount of money!

Johnny: Mom we're not taking the money. *rubs his eyes with his palm* and shut up *takes the blanket back* you'll wake up the whole complex *covers his head*

Mer: John wake up! *pulls the blanket off* We can use the money you're always complaining about your sisters.

Johnny: No! *sits up* Why would anyone pay 1 million on a small piece of property?! Maybe a few thousand but 1 million?

Mer: Its the LeBlancs

Johnny: We aren't selling it mom *lays back down* It's dad's.

Mer:... Johnny your dad's gone he would have wanted us to sell it to take care of ourselves

Johnny: No.. *yawns* Thats it no. ~I felt my mom walk out of my room and the door closed. I wasn't going to sell the drive in unless we had to~
