"There! Done" Skylar smiled and stepped aside, admiring her handy work on Nathan, he was sleeping on the bed, his hair tousled and muscular chest open, three stitches were on his chest, and a bandage on his broad shoulder, she moved to the window and sighed, a worried frown on her face, Dan slipped his arms around her waist, "Dan, I'm worried.... Stella should've been back by now" Dan sighed, "get my jacket, I'm going out" He took it from Skylar's grasp and left the room, Skylar looked out the window and saw Stella, she was kissing a guy, he had brown hair and eyes, she watched them part and Stella went inside, "WHERE THE FUC* WERE YOU?" she heard Teresa shout, Nathan sat up, "go back to sleep, it'll be fine" she said soothingly, he smiled "thanks Sky..." she nodded, they heard the next door slam, Nathan took her hand, " I love you Skylar " and fell asleep,
Skylar's POV
Nathan is dilarious! He's barely conscious! I shrug it off and go find Marcus,it's his re-dressing time, I took the kit and pills. I knocked gently at the door, he's not here, "come in!" He called
"hi, " I said softly, he's where Stella left him, I began undoing the bandages, I began to clean it with alcohol, "what's wrong with my Elly?" He asked, Crap! I wish he hadn't asked! "I saw her kissing a boy on her her way in.... She was a whole hour late and Teresa and her fought..." He sighed, I'm done. "what did he look like?" I ran a hand through my hair, "tall,masculine, brown hair and eyes," He gasped "Ray!!!!! He's a player,a bad one, he also is a big wheel in human trafficking", what? No! "my girl's caught in his web!" He sobbed LOUDLY. Stella,Dan, Teresa and Matty burst in,
Matty grabbed a fistful of Skylar's hair, "what did you do?" He demanded, "nothing! Nothing Matty!" she screamed, he jerked and twisted her hair, "I hate liars!" He said and dropped her on the floor, she cried. He pulled her up and slapped her, "Matty! She's no older Stella! Stop it!" Teresa said angrily, "Elly, please don't tell me you kissed Ray!" Marcus said, everyone but Stella and Skylar froze, "yes daddy, I did" she said. He hopped off the bed "ARE YOU CRAZY? DO YOU WANT TO GET SOLD!?" He shouted, she looked at him "dad, please! I love him" she whispered, "who told you that?" Matty asked Marcus, "Skylar saw them kiss" He said. Matty grabbed Skylar's shoulders and shook her "is it true?" He demanded, she nodded, he pushed her "Dan! Go lock her in her room, and padlock the windows" Matty barked. Dan took Skylar by the elbow "let's go Sky" He said and took her upstairs, he padlocked the windows and left, Skylar cried in her pillow,
Two hours later
"Skylar?" Teresa stuck her head in the room , "we need you for another job" Skylar was surprised, "what? Why?" she asked, Teresa went to Skylar's closet and pulled out a purple tank top and black skinny jeans, "wear this" she tossed them to Skylar and a blonde wig, scalp cap and blue contacts
Skylar stepped out of the room, scared, the last time this happened, it didn't end well...., "Betty Roberts, nice to meet you" Teresa said and took her to Matty's room, "she looks like a hooker.... Perfect!" He said "now all you have to do is meet with Ray and give the signal" He said, "Matty.... You remember last time?" Skylar asked, Matty choose to ignore that and hold a gun to her, "be a good girl... Under the circumstances" He reminded her,
