“But you don’t know if your dick is good enough to get the job done?” Virgil shrugged and laughed “Maybe give her the worst fuck of her life, and she’ll run away free of charge?” He chuckled “Just et video evidence”

“I’ anybody” I flipped offin bed like a fucking corpse

“I wish she would just fucking wake up,” I growled, angry and worried as hell

Virgil nodded “Sleep is the best way to heal, or so Maisie keeps telling ave it a shest person I ever onna pull through She has to”

“I know she will,” I told him and pulled out my flask “In the meantime, we all need to step up Take care of the business she dedicated her life to, and when she finally wakes up, on’t all get our asses kicked to kingdom come”

Virgil shook off et your ass kicked to kingdom come You are the boss, after all”

I took a swig “I e, but we all have our roles to play in this family, like it or not”

“The roles aren’t the problem, Jas It’s you”

My brows dipped into a frown “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”

“Itlike the kid put in charge while the parents are at dinner Act like the leader you want everyone to see”

Virgil stared ataze, just facts as he saw the all pissed I know seeing her like this is toughest on you, but remember we didn’t shoot her”

“I know that”

Virgil nodded “Then act like it” He dropped a kiss on Sadie’s forehead and left us alone I inched my chair closer to Sadie and held her hand

“It’s just you and me, kid Remember you said those words to h there was still Virgil and Kat and Cal to worry about, it felt like it was just you and me We were a team, and we’re still a team, at least, ill be if you wake the fuck up”

I wasn’t sure if I believed the doctors and nurses who said she could hear me, but since I couldn’t shake her the fuck awake, I kept talking to her “You’ll be happy to know you were right about Lucky Lopez The place is always packed, and other than you getting shot and a few catfights, there’s been no drama”
