Six years ago

To put an end to what I was doing to Shondra caused me physical pain, but I had to reign in those idiots from causing trouble. Jameson usually took care of our group of misfits. Me included.

Time and time again, my roommate, my brother, had stopped me from wreaking havoc, bringing me down from my adrenaline high in that calm-ass way of his. His stoic expression, paired with his tempered voice, worked magic to keep the peace, rescuing us from situations that our asininity landed us in. Now the duty fell on me since he wasn't around.

I left Shondra without a word, afraid if I spoke, I'd let my friends wind up in jail. It was no accident that I grabbed her shirt. I wanted her with me.
