“Close. He won’t get arrested, he’ll get a casket.” I stop laughing. Jesus, that was in poor taste.
“Don’t worry about it,” Sawyer says gently, reading my mind as always. “What do you need?”
“Information.”
“Okay, shoot.”
“I need to know where Baxter is. I have to speak to him.”
“I wish we knew—”
“Speak to Jasper and Frost. Someone knows something. I have to speak to him. It’s urgent.”
“Okay, leave it with me. I’ll text you a number when I get one.”
“Thanks.”
“No problem, Amelie. Have a great time.”
“Is...everyone okay?” I hesitate, not wanting to seem only interested in Onyx, but of course, Sawyer sees through that too.
“Onyx is fine, Amelie. All of us are. Even Marshmallow.”
“I miss him, give him a kiss from me.”
“You better mean the damn dog, I’m not snogging any of my brothers for you!” We laugh and it feels good.
“I have to go.”
“No worries. Miss you.”
“You too.”
With a smile on my face, I cut the call and head out of my room and down the corridor to go back downstairs, but stop short when I spy a familiar figure coming towards me. Familiar and unwelcome.
“What the hell are you doing here?” I hiss at Sarah, Smalls’ ex. Or Skanky Sarah as I like to call her.
“Do you mind? Show some respect, we just buried one of our own today.”
“Yeah, from what I heard he had a girl and a son at home. That’s a new level of low, isn’t it? Aspiring to be a homewrecker.”
Sarah’s eyes flash with anger but I don’t give a fuck. I want to provoke her. I disliked her from the moment I laid eyes on her and now I’m allowed to. I hope she starts something; I have new skills I can showcase.
“It’s none of your damn business what was going on between Brenton and me!”
“No, but when you started screwing around behind Smalls’ back, that became my damn business. I’d like to say I’m going to get payback because you hurt him, but in all honesty, he didn’t give that much of a fuck about you. So now this is just going to be for fun.” Channelling my inner Branson, I give slutface Sarah my best psychopath smile, revelling in the nervous way she swallows.
This is going to be fun.
