fence by their window, and you can pull yourself up if your taller."
"Are you sure?" Darren asked.
"Yeah come on. Can I have that?"
Jason gave Me the inhaler and I took another hit, leading the way to the room.
"You stay inside guys." I told My brothers.
I climbed out with Darren. He bent down.
"Jason, Go out side, and climb onto the roof."
" 'Kay."
Jason Grabbed the fence and pulled Him self up. He got His footing and Pulled himself onto the roof.
"I'm going to Shut the window. Prestly, Marilyn, go lay on the bed, and Tell Me If you can Here Me open the window."
They went to the bed and Darren shut the window. He opened the window and climbed through walking to the bed. He touched Prestly's arm.
"Shit!" Prestly jumped.
"They never even saw it coming." Jason muttered.
"Come inside now, you guys." Marilyn waved a hand.
We went inside, and Darren Left to call Snooty.
A Person came Down, took Some Prints and left. I needed these people to find the killer, So I can move on. Did I want to Move on? Yes. Yes all the way. A week Later and We where sitting on the couch As Snooty paced.
"We found Some prints on the fence." He began, "We reran the prints and we found a match. We have the Killer, We just have to set a date."
"So Where in the clear?" Prestly asked.
"Yes." Snooty smiled. -Smiled!-
"Wait who killed them?" Jason asked.
"Pat Jones."
"Pat!" We all asked.
"Yes. We think That He was upset about the relationship your parents still had."
I thought Back to When Dad and Mom was talking. Yep. Pat was defiantly mad back then. But Murder? Really?
At the Court date and His punishment, Mom sat On his side-His side!- crying. He was sentenced for life, and We had to go back with Mom.
"I'm not going back."
"You have to." Snooty said.
"I'll take Her. But you'll have to work at My Store." Marilyn said. "You boys too."
They scooted closer to Mom, and Just like That I was off to restart My life again.
~***~
I was planning to sleep on the way to Marilyn's house, but My eyes where glued open. Marilyn lived in a small town right on the beach. You would walk out Her back door and you'd Be in sand a couple of feet away from the water. The town was really small, and Had everything Pretty close. On the board walk There where shops, including Marilyn's Clothing Shop. Everyone had deep tans, and wore big smiles. When We pulled Up I was Pretty surprised at the Size. Darren Got out of the car, and Opened the trunk. He grabbed My bag of clothes, Box of new books, and Bag of hair stuff.
"Your Gonna Love It Here, Come on." Marilyn smiled, and Held her hand out.
I took Her hand and we went up the walk way.
"There's My Pretty Girl!" Darren said.
"She was no trouble at all. I love watching Her!" A girls voice came to us.
"Thanks, Marilyn has your Money."
"Thanks!"
A Girl wearing a Pink sun dress over a Pink bathing suit Walked to the door, Pony tail swinging.
"Was she any trouble?" Marilyn asked
"Nope None at all."
"Thank you for coming on such Short notice."
"Sure! Anytime." She took The Money.
"This is Dakota."
"Hi Dakota! I'm Sammie." She stuck Her hand out and I shook it.
"Dakota's going To Be working with you and Tori, can you-"
"Show Her around? I'd Love to!"
Sammie Shoved an arm through Mine and Pulled Me out the door.
"Be back for Dinner!"
We walked to the Board walk, her talking Non stop. Clothes, shoes, places to be, Where to hang out.
"Hey Sam! Who's your Hot Friend?" A Boy yelled.
He was across the street sitting on a bench, with three other guys.
"Don't Worry, Cam tries to get with every living thing. It's ridiculous."
She raised a slim Middle finger and Pulled Me along.
"Come On!" Cam yelled.
She pulled a door open, and We went into a store. A Girl with Bright red hair and big Boots sat on the back counter, legs crossed reading a magazine.
"Is it slow?"
"It's always slow the first two weeks of summer. You know that. Who did you draft this time?"
"This is Dakota. She's Marilyn's cousin right?"
"Niece."
"Right. Anyway, she'll Be working Here."
Red gave a snort and pulled the magazine back up.
"Come on Tori, don't be like that. You work the front Desk, and I'll show her around."
"Uh-Huh." Tori said, Not really paying attention.
Sammie showed Me the back room and then to the office . She sat on the back counter with Tori and Read the magazine. I slipped out the door and headed down the street. Cam was still sitting on the bench with His friends. The bench they sat in front of was in front of a bike store. As I passed someone whistled and whooped. I picked up My pace and kept My head low. I pushed the door open, and Took my shoes off dumping out the sand.
"Dakota is that you?" Marilyn asked.
"Yeah."
Darren was on the floor on His stomach facing a two month little girl. I walked into the kitchen and sat down on the stool.
"So Dinner is almost done, and all your stuff is in your room already, it's up stairs, fourth door on the left."
I slid off the stool and went to the stairs.
"Dakota! You want to Meet you cousin?"
"Um. Not really."
"Come on." He waved Me forward.
I stretched out on My stomach next to Darren and in front of the baby.
"Isn't she perfect."
"Yeah."
The Baby stuck her tongue out then pulled it back in.
"What do you call her?"
"Izzy." He said touching Her hand.
Izzy grabbed onto his hand, as She began to cry.
"And that's My Que to leave."
Darren laughed, as I pushed off the floor.
"Honey, Someone's hungry." Darren said, picking Izzy off the floor, and heading to the kitchen.
My room was pretty big, with a pretty View. I opened the door, and went out onto the back deck. I looked over the people running around on the beach. There was a buzz from My room, then Marilyn saying that Dinner was done. I locked the door, and went down stairs. Marilyn gave Me a house key, and gave Me the keys to My car, which we towed Here. After Dinner they Put Izzy to sleep and I went to My room. I layed awake listening to My Ipod for two hours, and Still couldn't sleep. I Pulled on a jacket, grabbed My keys and left My room. The house was quite and dark. I pulled my phone out of My pocket and lit the way down stairs. I locked the house up and went to my car. I hooked My Ipod up, and then pulled out of the drive way. I drove along the Board walk, and turned Left, finding a Gas station, that shared a lot with a Laundromat and a food store. I parked and went to the Gas station and grabbed the biggest cup of coffee. I payed for it and got back in the car. I sat in the parking lot until I drank half the Coffee, and the person in the gas station kept glancing at Me. I drove around, until Six and then went home. I got back into bed and finally-Finally!-fell asleep. I stumbled down stairs. Darren was trying to Keep Izzy calm as She screamed, and I mean screamed, as Marilyn tried to get a bottle together. I looked at the counter not finding a coffee, pot. I turned around and left the kitchen.
"Dakota? Where you going?"
"To get Coffee, you guys want anything?"
"No thanks."
"I'm fine.
I jogged to My room, grabbed My keys, and Ipod and left. I got MY Coffee and drove back home. Tori was waving wildly as I came to the shop, as if I'd Miss Her with that hair. I stopped and she ran up to the car as I rolled the window down. She bent down and shoved Her big glasses onto Her head.
"Are you working today?"
"Maybe, Why?"
"Cause I'm alone here and-"
The car behind Me honked.
"Let Me pull around."
"Okay." She put Her sun glasses back on and walked to the store.
I pulled around at the light.
"Where's Sam?"
"She doesn't get Here for another hour."
"Okay, Let me go home, and I'll come sit with you."
"Your The best."
I pulled away and went back to the house. I changed and Walked down the stairs.
"Your ready early."
"Tori's done at the store By Herself. She waved Me down on My way Back Here, So I'm going to Go hang out with Her."
"Perfect. Here's Your hours." She gave Me a paper, shifting Izzy.
I looked at the Paper.
"See you. I'm late." I touched Izzy's hand Making Her cry. "Eh." I muttered leaving the house.
"Have a Nice Day!" Tori waved to a Woman leaving the store. "You stupid Cunt bag. Hey Dakota!"
"Hi." I Sat on the back counter and drank My coffee.
The Bell rang and we looked up to see Sam pink back clutched in her hand.
"What happened to you?" Tori laughed.
"The Boy's, That's what Happened. They chased Me Here on their bikes."
I looked out the window to see them sitting on their Bikes at the bike shop. They where laughing.
"They thought it was funny." She said now.
"They Still Do." I pointed out the window.
Sam Jumped on the counter and looked through the window. She jumped off and Opened the Door.
"Hey!" She yelled, making the boys look. Fuck you! She mouthed flipping them off.
At the same time they all raised a hand and flipped her off. Cam winked and Blew Me a kiss.
"Ugh." I muttered, leaning against the wall, taking a drink.
"What?" Tori asked, turning to look at Me.
"Cam."
"Ugh." She said, pulling a magazine from under the counter.
"Oh My god." I said.
"What?" They said.
"Sam, you better lock that damn door, He's Coming over Here." I said.
"Keys!" Sam said.
Tori reached under the counter and tossed a ring of Keys to Sam. Sam hurried to Lock the door as Cam began to ran. He yanked on the door, just as She pulled out the key out. She stuck Her tongue out and did a Ha-Ha dance.
"Open this door!" Cam Yelled pulling on the handle.
"Never!" Sam yelled.
"Dude, your Not in a movie." Tori put Her magazine down, and threw out Her arms. "You'll Never take Me alive!"
"I want to Talk to Dakota!" He yelled.
The Girls looked at Me.
I Set down My coffee cup, threw my hands out and Yelled, "You'll Never take Me alive."
"Holy Shit dude!" Tori laughed, Giving Me a high five.
"Never!" Sam Said.
He put His forehead on the glass door.
"I know Where you live Dakota!" He turned away and left.
"I'm actually really scared right Now." I said.
"Don't worry, He's afraid of Marilyn." Sam said, unlocking the door, and jumping onto the counter.
She swung her legs over, so She was facing Me.
"Your sure He won't come over, Cause If your Not, I'm sleeping in the back office."
"I'm sure." Sam laughed.
"Sam Might Be a total
