"Nate says something your scaring me." I say as Nate stares blankly into space.
613Please respect copyright.PENANABwLYPrpdhS
"What do you want me to say Azalea? I couldn't let you get discovered. So I did what I had to do." He replies harshly
613Please respect copyright.PENANApfmwLhvW7Y
"Nate you killed somone....like actually killed someone. Won't people come looking for the man and when they do we could have accidentally left behind evidence." I ramble
613Please respect copyright.PENANARNdzVKpIXb
"This is stuff grown ups deal with Azalea this is not your problem." He says still staring blankly at the dinner table.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAZClwPh9iu0
I never noticed how young my brother looked.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA7qwoZX6lV7
He's 20 but has not experienced much of the world to even get any scars.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAH0axPpCPuS
The only time he goes out is to work at Jerry's but her shop.
613Please respect copyright.PENANALwsEqLtgnh
He's been trapped in this home taking care of me.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA8aYVDDazyU
When did he even learn to shoot?
613Please respect copyright.PENANAlV0i3x3qyD
Nates skin is a light Carmel color and his black hair dangles in curls framing his face.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAs0pEtQCfLP
I notice I look a lot like him.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAWediTSypTC
"I'm going to bed I have an early shift tomorrow at Jerry's ." Nate heads to his room.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAJlqx1jNn5O
I do the same.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAH5Wk7jv0yR
**The next morning**
613Please respect copyright.PENANAkFU9bYpm1o
5:13 am
613Please respect copyright.PENANAnUmh6TIE0C
"Plenty of time to go outside." I think to myself.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAb4gtFTAyai
"How do you get up this early every morning?" Nate asked stretching as he enters the room.
613Please respect copyright.PENANADepROFNOEX
Last nights incident clearly forgotten.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAqRPKmpq8Hj
I don't mention it.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAeSUWKFj7K2
"You get used to it." I smile at him with a mouth full of eggs.
613Please respect copyright.PENANANw2EbBS8qv
"Bye!" I say heading out the front door.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA19jta5UyGn
The flowers seem to get prettier and prettier each day.
613Please respect copyright.PENANALxa9rahDgn
The light blue flowers have transformed into almost an ocean blue.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAZTPF0px1sl
I look our behind the trees to the path we took to get to the creek.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAM7DOUn35U9
I'll never be able to go there again.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA2cboXe5Ax3
My brother......is a murderer.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAtH7NH8XaM0
I could never kill someone.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAahKSjXFZTG
Even if it was to save someone else.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAVrJdTv73c9
"Woof!" I hear something moving in the Azalea bushes.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA7HSRLz9nK4
I get a closer look.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA1MEY91qS5N
When I move the bushes back a small brown dog is laying down.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAQQW1MEJKAj
He has a blue collar with a gold pendant hanging from it.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAkfPuNEEvqW
I noticed it's leg is broken and the dog looks to be in pain.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAje6HfEHuwM
"Oh no little buddy I'll take care of you." I say
613Please respect copyright.PENANAsnO3mdjyjc
I pick the dog up and head back inside.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAD6UCLueJly
When I reach the top step I step on something that's not wood and my feet slide from under me.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAzsxcEP6HKs
"Thud!" I hit the ground hard still clutching the dog.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAhpb9jPbOkv
I land hard on the ground, scraping my face on a stick.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA8WR3ccESm8
I regather myself and the dog and head back up the stairs.
613Please respect copyright.PENANACAOJdATnpJ
On the step I see a yellow envelope.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA3rgmWseJcz
"Nate Harper." It reads
613Please respect copyright.PENANAxvboBQi4iF
I pick it up and head inside.
613Please respect copyright.PENANALfvz7S5c6T
I set the note on the table and plan my case on how I'm going to convince my brother to let me keep the dog.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAVVZYamnizs
I walk into his room.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA8EXjPpagUd
It's a mess.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAoJSbanfAMu
Books and clothes thrown all across the floor.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAebsoXZJkZC
I find him sitting on his bed when he looks up at me.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAnim3RzUgkH
"Please!!!! I promise to take care of him." I shut my eyes cuddling the puppy.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAuCQgghjf1B
"Azalea you're bleeding what happend." He comes closer to me.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAN6DVONm8N7
I turn to look in the mirror and see a mild cut going across my cheek.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAGOGDMnoxau
The blood has already driped on my shirt.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAcx2Ve4fkT5
Nate searches for the first aid kit and orders me to sit down.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAJyMIYjYCwL
He hasn't even noticed the dog yet.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAz5HVfUQ7zz
"How did this happen?" He says pressing a cotton ball with a cold liquid on it to my face.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAhy1ojSVAhq
"I tripped and fell down the stair..but that should be the lest of your concerns." I say showing him the dog.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAC7ly2fUUGr
Now he notices it.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAEvIJU4OziL
"What is that animal doing in the house. Azalea you know the rules. No pets." He says studying the dog.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAOvHQLd8XIJ
"Nate please! I can't send him back out there his leg is broken." I make the puppy dog face.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAQb6fiXrIIl
"No Azalea." He says placing bandages on my cut.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA9H11Zwm86x
"Oh come on Nate he will keep me company while your at work." I plead
613Please respect copyright.PENANAz7FOgX2FJU
"You're not going to give up are you?" Nate says closing the bottle of peroxide back up.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAGOa5yNxx1y
"Nope!" I smile
613Please respect copyright.PENANApRdXlWdT2L
"Fine....but only until his leg heals." Nate exhales deeply.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA9ssau45QVb
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" I say placing the dog on the bed and hugging him tightly.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA27KT0dBXj5
"Don't get to attached to him okay young one?" Nate stares at the puppy.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAU4jYD7lxkK
"I won't." I say without a thought.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAD5Av0VBVVv
"Hey there boy. Is your leg broken?" Nate makes baby noises to the puppy.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAZV1MtIM3nv
Nate snaps the dogs leg back in place and wraps it in bandages.
613Please respect copyright.PENANANzoLPOxBZ2
I close my eyes tight so I didn't have to feel the puppy's pain.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA928PthWopr
"I think I'll name you....Blue." I pet the dog
613Please respect copyright.PENANAtBG7THzptA
Blue wags his tail quickly.
613Please respect copyright.PENANA8kpS4RlO0z
"AWE you like that name don't you!" I smile rubbing his belly.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAHi4NbxSGI8
"Azalea what's this?" Nate renters the room holding the envelope.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAgLZmmSiZ39
"That right there is the culprit." I make a gesture to my cheek.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAlcc5rbAjKw
Nate ignores me and opens the envelope
613Please respect copyright.PENANASYYyw6awDK
"What does it say?" I ask once I notice he's finished reading it.
613Please respect copyright.PENANAFOlvrCGEbO
"It says the governor would like to speak to me on Thursday afternoon." He replies
613Please respect copyright.PENANAmGysBpi6GO
It's Wednesday
613Please respect copyright.PENANAQcey0LvZfz
"What? What would he want to do with you......oh no do you think someone saw you kill the guard?" I gasp
613Please respect copyright.PENANAnvYY6xbzW5
"Yes, and that someone was you. I told you to stop worrying." He hugs me
613Please respect copyright.PENANAe3v3tkcqy7
"It's probably just a check up. I'll be fine I promise." Nate reassures
613Please respect copyright.PENANAYzz3TlI9Rt
"Yeah you're probably right." I say pulling his covers over top of me.
