Split Lives

Chapter 30

~Francis~

Me and Azura are in the park chatting catching up, one thing we have in common is Liverpool, I'm from there so I talk and use the same phrases that scousers do (scousers are people who come from Liverpool, England) anyway, Azura is wearing a hoodie whilst keeping her face covered and I notice she has new shoes on, they looked boss "nice kicks AJ, where did ya get them?" I ask impressed by her new trainer shoes "shop that's only jus opened a week ago, thankfully they didn't have any security" "when did ya get them?" Azura pauses to think then answers "yesterday" then carries on to say "they're new to America the shop owners, so they didn't know I'm a wanted criminal" that's reasonable I guess, Azura usually wears a leather jacked but I notice she isn't wearing her signature leather jacket, it's a hooded jumper and she covering her face "why are you covered up?" I ask wondering what my friend and leader was up to, honestly...you never know what the hell she's going to do next "I'm going to meet up with a few of my new friends, the band, and I haven't had time to 'disguise' myself yet, the cops could be anywhere and I don't want to show up late coz I was outsmarting the cops. So, until I have time to 'disguise myself, I'm staying covered" now THAT is genius "clever AJ, very cleaver" "ta lad" then I try to change the subject "how are you since...." Azura cut me off, she's been coughing for most of our conversation and I don't know why, but as I said before, you don't push Azura for answers "getting sliced and making the guy worse off, but nearly dying?" she asks, but she knew that was what I was going to ask "yeah, pretty much" "ok, you know considering I am now blind in one eye" she replies, thing with Azura is she doesn't sleep much or well, I personally think she's reliving s**t that's happened to her in her past, it's a massive thing she doesn't talk about but I keep telling her to get help but she won't "AJ, you was arguing in your sleep and fighting by the sounds of it" I begin "so?" Azura asks pretending we don't always have this conversation "you need to see a shrink" Azura rolls her eyes "we're not havin this again Fran, I'm serious" anyone else would back down after that due to the fear she puts up them "so am I" "I gotta go somewhere, meet up with Marco and the others. See ya dude" and Azura starts walking off "this isn't over!" I shout out, but she can't hear me so I just sigh watching her walk away.

I arrive at the address Marcus told me and the building was f*****g HUGE! Then I walk over to Marcus and the others "hey guys, hi dildo" I'm one of them who can hold a grudge to her grave so as I know that Dylan is responsible for my time in hospital I'm going to call him a dildo, although I'm sure a dildo gets more action than what Dylan does. I see Dylan isn't impressed with my nickname for him while the others all cover their faces trying not to laugh, I've gotten to know the guys really well when I was in hospital, they seem nice. Me and Tyra have really got a lot in common in our interests, anyway a VERY unimpressed Dylan says it's Dylan you little b***h" 'playtime' I think to myself "that's what I said, dildo" I reply knowing that I'm really getting on his nerves "that's it, I've had enough of you" just then I see Dylan grab a plank of wood off of a van close by and goes to try and hit me with the plank of wood, however I seen him before he could and said "take a swing an I'll shove that wood so far up your arse you'll be shittin splinters" fear on his face Dylan drops the plank of wood and it hits his shoulder on the way down "OW! That hurt, see what you made me do? That hit my shoulder" unfazed I shrug "it's your own fault" "how?! How is it?" I smirk "well dildo" I begin only to be interrupted by a VERY annoyed Dylan "DYLAN!" It takes everything in me to not laugh at just how much I'm getting under this i***t's skin "no I'm Crystal" he is fuming and I'm loving it "anyway, as I was saying, if you weren't about to try and hit me with the wood, I wouldn't of had to warn you" I pause to cough, when I finished coughing I carry on "you wouldn't of dropped it on yourself.....hmm although, you should thank me" that confused him so much the look on Dylan's face was priceless "thank you?" Dylan asked in confusion, I smile "your welcome" Dylan again tries to protest "but I..." only to be cut off by Marcus "ok, lets go in" then I add "yeah, lets go guys before I whack dildo myself" I see Michael giggle and a very annoyed Dylan shouts "DYLAN!" I then decide to be my usual self "no I'm Crystal, but my enemies call me a demon" I see Marcus smirk while Oliver puts his arm around Marcus's shoulder as they walk in, Michael and Lucas both run in with each other.....I miss that connection with Talia...Dylan walks in fuming, I cough again, then Tyra puts her hand around my shoulder "gotta admit Crystal, that's a very clever word play" "ta chica" I reply. So it was raining a lot these past days so I think I may have a slight cold but I just carry on, it's my way of life nowadays.
