• Chapter 2 • Drugs •

After school, now having lost the bike I stole, I hastily walk to Raoul's house, well, more like Mike's house I suppose... he owns it but a ton of people live there, and at this point I think they all pitch in for bills and shit so I guess they all kinda own it.  Right, sorry, I should probably explain. They grow weed.  I sell weed.  You get me?  Yeah... Fiona and the others don't know, but they know I do something dodgy.

I knock on the door before just turning the handle and strolling in, "yo? Raoul?"  I suddenly freeze when I see a man I know to be a cop, out of uniform, standing behind Leon, another guy that lives here, clicking a pair of handcuffs together around Leon's wrists.

"Shit. Wha-" I begin to talk but am quickly cut off by the officer.

"Don't move," the officer orders, making me freeze and loosely put my hands up in surrender. I surprise him by suddenly sprinting back towards the door, I fumble with the door handle which HAD to be stuck this particular time, are you kidding me? In this time, he makes his way over to me and roughly pulls my hands down behind my back and handcuffs me, "you're under arrest, you have the right to remain silent," he tells me and finishes telling me my rights but I don't really pay attention, too scared of what's gonna happen.

I look to Leon across the room, who can clearly see the fear in my eyes, and he looks at me apologetically.

The officer eventually takes Leon and I out front where there is now a police car parked with another officer getting out.

"Hey Diaz, can you give me a lift back after for my car?" The original officer asks.  So that's why I didn't see any police cars when I got here.

"Sure," the new officers, Diaz, replies, opening the back door.

The officer shoves us inside the back of the car, with far too much force.  I quietly grunt in pain at the handcuffs digging into my wrists when I fall into the seat on them.

The journey to the station is silent only with occasional chatter from Officer Diaz and Officer Bastard-who-arrested-me.

All I can think about is, what is Fiona going to say? What is Lip going to do? How will Ian react? What if Carl finds out?

The last one has me the most worried.  I can't have Carl see me arrested.  I can't, I just can't.  He can't see that.

I'm snapped out of my worry by the door being pulled open, and my arm being yanked up and me being practically dragged out of the car by Officer Bastard.  We're taken into the station, Leon is taken into the holding cell, whereas, since I'm a minor, I am handcuffed to a desk, which turns out to be  Officer Diaz's desk rather than the other officer's.

The officers walk away and I am left at the desk.  I'm about to grab paper clip off the desk to pick the lock and get out, but seeing as that would probably just get me in more trouble, I'm thankful something else catches my eye.  Tony is sat at a desk doing something on his computer and my eyes light up.
