Chapter 2 Old Friends

The drive to the house of awkward and quite even when I was trying to make small talk with Jessica. We eventually make it to the house and everyone gets out. I make my way over to one of the trucks and pull out a couple of my bags and start to walk towards the house, only stopping realizing I don't know where my room will be yet. I look back to see Mason grabbing a couple.of the bags and the guys grabbing the rest of them. We finally come to a stop and everyone gets out. I grab one of my bags as the guys grab the rest. Once inside Mason grabs my hand and leads me to a room on the top floor. It's a huge room with an ensuite bathroom, there is also a huge walk in closet. The walls are a dark blue and in the middle of the the largest wall is a king size bed with a 70" tv facing it.

"Nice room Mason" I try to say casually, in truth I'm nervous as fuck, because he looks pissed! He pulls me towards him close and makes me face him. "Stop with the sweet and innocent act. Why didn't you tell me you have a boyfriend? She's going to tell Josh that she seen you! You need to break it off with him, tonight! Then we are going to the tattoo parlor to get that tattoo lasered off as well as your old gang tattoo!" All I can think about while he is screaming at me is that I need to calm him down somehow. But when he brought up me breaking up with Josh and getting the tattoos lasered off, I get pissed off. I try to shake him off of me but I can't, all he does is tighten his hold on my arms. "I'm not breaking up with him! I love him Mason. Who the hell do you think you are telling me who I can date and what tattoos I can have. I'm not getting rid of my tattoo for you! I agreed to getting rid of the gang tattoo but I won't get rid of anymore for you!!" I stomp on his foot in frustration making him let go of me momentarily. "You killed my parents why don't you just kill me to for fuck sakes!" I still can't believe he did that to me, ya we were a part if different gangs and were suppose to hate each other but we were best friends. And he had them killed in front of me.

Mason grabs a hold of me again and throws me on the bed and pins me down by sitting on my hips and holding my arms above my head. "Stop screaming at me. I am the person who bought you and you better start to show me some fucking respect. I won't push the Josh issue on you tonight, but you are getting both fucking tattoos removed. It's either lasered off or covered with something else, your choice. And for the last time I didn't kill your parents. I wouldn't do that to you Jennifer!" I try to get him off of me but can't. "How can you say that you didn't kill them?! The killers had Saints tattooed on their fucking wrist. Don't believe me! Ask Devin he was there too!" Mason sits back letting go of my arms looking shocked.

After a moment of silence he finally speaks up. "That wasn't me, or my gang. Everyone in my gang has Saints tattooed in basically the same spot either on the left side or right side of their collar bones either above it or below it. The ones that had it on their wrist were apart of my dad's gang.... They weren't my guys Jenn, please believe me. I wouldn't hurt you like that..... I remember when we were kids and would play with each other before all this gang shit!"

How could I not remember when me and him were kids. Though 3 years apart we were stuck at the hip since we met each other at some get together one of our parents threw. We were friends up until I was 12 then some shit happened and everything changed. He was my first crush ever.

I look up at Mason in the eyes and reach up and touch his face gently. "I haven't thought about those days in a long time Mase, I never thought I would see you again. I tried to avoid it, when ever something came up about your gang I would avoid it. Why didn't you tell me you had a brother? We knew each other for 10 years!" He leans slightly in slowly towards my face, "He was kept hidden until 2 years ago. Why would you want to avoid me? We were good friends. I didn't care that we were from different gangs! If you remembered why did you pretend you didn't know me at first huh! I knew you liked me more than a friend! It was written all over your face when ever you looked at me." I hear him take in a deep breathe and move closer entwining our fingers together. "Mase don't... we can't go there! It was easier to pretend not to know you then deal with this, deal with our past. It's too complicated. If you knew how I felt for you then why did you push me away from you, then go and head and say that we couldn't go there with each other huh! I didn't care about the gangs back then either, I wanted to be with...." Before I can finish Mason smashes his lips on to mine, kissing me with tons of heat and passion. I get butterflies in my belly like I did when I first kissed him years ago. I kiss him back and wrap my arms around his neck. Before long I feel his hand slip under my shirt and I freeze. I can't do this. I have a boyfriend. I untangle my arms from around his neck and push him away. "I can't do this, I have a boyfriend." I try to roll away as I feel a tear slip down my cheek. Mason stops me and wipes the tear away, "Don't cry please. End things with him, from the way you kissed me there, you want me just a much as I want you. You were always on my mind and you still are, even when we weren't talking to each other."

I don't know what to say to him. Ya I used to like him but that was then. I moved on from him, or at least I thought so. I can't believe I cheated on Josh with him, I have never been the cheater before. God this shit is confusing. Like I know we couldn't of been together back then we were the children of gang leaders, they were enemies after they had a huge fallout. It just wouldn't of worked out and then there was the fact that it would of looked bad with us being 3 years apart and being that young. 6 years does change a person a lot. I know I'm not the same person anymore. I'm a killer now and I know he is too.

I look at him in the eyes and see him already looking in mine, how I can just lose my self his crystal blue eyes. "Ok, I will end it tonight with Josh, but I need to see him in person to do it. Josh and I have been together for a year and a half now, I won't do it over the phone." Mason leans down and presses a soft kiss on my lips and then gets off of me. "I will leave you to get ready and call him. I give you the keys to the car I was going to give you for now till you got one you wanted, since I know Paul wouldn't let you have one after you crashed yours when you were drunk."

I watch him as he gets off of the bed and places a set of keys on the side table from his pocket, then walk out. As I get up slowly I pull out my phone and text Josh.

Me: Hey can we meet up at the park near yours? We need to talk.

Josh: Ya of course babe, what's wrong?

Me: Nothings wrong, we just need to talk. I'll be there in 30 ok?

Josh: Ok see you soon. Love you babe.

My heart sinks as I read the last text, this is going to crush him. I start to get ready by doing my make up first and then get dressed in a pair of short short and a white crop top showing off a lot of my tattoos. Once ready I walk out of them room and out of the house, then click the starter so I know what car I'm taking. I walk over to a brand new BMW that is black and green. My two favorite colours, just the thought of it makes me blush because Mason really did remember things about me after all this time. Shortly after I'm pulling out of the driveway and on my way to the park to meet Josh.
